After the movie, Ha Joon headed to the rooftop cafe that Ji Hoon had reserved.
As he arrived at the cafe and was about to enter the building, Ha Joon’s phone vibrated.
“I’ll go in first. Take your time with the call.”
While Ha Joon was looking at his phone screen, Su Ah quickly entered the building.
And then, she sneaked a peek inside from the cafe’s glass door.
Were they not open today?
Strangely, there was not a single person in the cafe.
The lights were on, so it didn’t seem like they were closed…
Su Ah cautiously opened the door.
“Welcome.”
As soon as the door opened, a woman who appeared to be a cafe employee approached and greeted her.
“Um… Are you not open today?”
“No, we’re open now.”
“Oh, I thought maybe you weren’t open because I didn’t see anyone.”
At Su Ah’s words, the employee responded gruffly, as if this kind of thing had happened many times before.
“We are a VIPonly establishment operating on a 100% reservation basis, so no guests other than those with reservations can enter.”
At the employee’s words, Su Ah widened her eyes.
This was because she didn’t know that Ha Joon had made a reservation.
‘I’ll have to ask if he made a reservation and come in together.’
As Su Ah was about to turn around and go outside.
“As I mentioned, this is not a place where just anyone can enter, so if you haven’t made a reservation, please leave.”
Anyone? Did she just say anyone?
Su Ah abruptly turned around halfway.
“Excuse me. Anyone? Your words are a bit excessive.”
“Excessive? I just explained our store’s operating policy.”
Oh no. This woman, really.
“Even if I didn’t make a reservation today, I could come as a customer next time. You shouldn’t speak like that.”
She asked, narrowing her eyebrows,
“Make a reservation or something, knowing how much this place costs…”
The employee muttered as if to make her listen, tilting her head.
“Hey! How much is this place really…”
Was it because of her too ordinary looking clothes? Just when she was about to get angry, feeling like she was being ignored.
“You don’t need to know how much it is.”
Ha Joon, who had approached without her noticing, spoke softly.
“Huh? When did you get here? Did you finish your call well?”
In response to her question, he didn’t answer,
“Is it also your business policy to guide customers about the price in this way?”
He asked the employee.
…Did he hear all of our conversation?
Su Ah examined his stiff expression.
“What did you say?”
Just when the employee raised her voice as if to attack at Ha Joon’s words,
“Has the vice president arrived?”
A man who appeared to be the boss approached Ha Joon, bowed politely, and greeted him.
“It seems we should consider that there was no reservation today.”
Ha Joon, who had no intention of receiving the greeting, turned his gaze away.
“Huh? What suddenly… Did you have any inconvenience?”
As if waiting for that question, Ha Joon opened his mouth with a fierce look.
“According to the employee, it’s the business policy here not to let just anyone in.”
A tremor occurred in the employee’s pupils.
“I can’t rashly enter because the standard of ‘just anyone’ is not clear.”
As Ha Joon’s words ended, the boss’s expression began to darken rapidly.
Suddenly, the moment when Ji Hoon had called for a reservation came to mind.
“Mr. President, that day the Vice President of Hyunseong Group will be coming with an important guest, so you need to pay extra attention.”
The Vice President of Hyunseong Group.
Although he didn’t like to be in the spotlight and rarely showed himself unless it was an essential formal event,
Wasn’t he a celebrity among the conglomerates, causing everything from clothes, shoes, bags, and even a single tie pin to sell out due to his perfect visuals?
The boss was excited at the thought that he no longer had to worry about promoting the store just because he had visited.
“I’m, I’m sorry. It seems our employee made a mistake.”
“……”
Despite the boss’s apology, Ha Joon didn’t respond.
It was the best way to reveal his discomfort.
“Kim Yoon Joo. What are you doing without apologizing quickly?”
The boss shouted at the employee who was standing with a pale face.
“I’m, I’m sorry. I didn’t recognize you and made a mistake…”
“Why are you apologizing to me?”
Ha Joon interrupted the employee’s words and looked down at Su Ah.
It meant to apologize to Su Ah, not him.
“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry.”
The employee, who seemed to be fired because of this incident, was trembling with fear.
“That’s enough now.”
Although Su Ah was upset because of the employee’s attitude, she felt uncomfortable because he apologized like this.
Still, she had to say what she had to say, so she spoke with a stern face.
“Even if I visit without a reservation, please treat me more kindly.”
She emphasized more, putting strength into her eyebrows.
“I don’t know what the business policy of this place is, but judging people by their appearance is wrong.”
After finishing her words, Su Ah looked up at Ha Joon.
“Let’s go.”
At Su Ah’s words, Ha Joon immediately turned his body towards the door.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
