“Let’s all toast in welcoming Ms. Su Ah.”
“Let’s all toast in celebrating the team leader’s return.”
Laughter blossomed from the opposite seat, and the alcohol in the glass smoothly went down their throats.
Kuh, it’s sweet. This is the exact taste.
A pleasant smile seeped out between Su Ah’s lips as she set down her glass.
“Oh my. Ms. Su Ah seems to have a strong tolerance.”
“Exactly. She drinks it down so smoothly.”
Could it have been the atmosphere?
The employees who usually spoke formally were suddenly speaking informally.
“Alright! Let’s eat and drink to our heart’s content today.”
And so, one glass passed,
“Let’s all link arms in solidarity and shout ‘fighting’ together!”
And another glass passed.
Food enjoyed in good spirits has 0 calories.
Alcohol enjoyed in good spirits is 0 proof, wasn’t it?
She barely remembered when she had last enjoyed alcohol this much.
A glass because job hunting was tough.
A glass because she couldn’t find a job.
The alcohol Su Ah swallowed always accompanied her suffering, but today was different.
The alcohol flowing down her throat felt as sweet as honey, as if compensating for the suffering she had endured.
And so, Su Ah, intoxicated by the festive atmosphere of her welcome, started to drink frighteningly fast as soon as her glass was refilled.
But even the sweetest drink was still alcohol.
The strong will to never let her guard down began to lose its strength, and the speed of opening and closing her eyes started to slow significantly.
“I’ll be back, I’m going to the restroom for a moment.”
With the thought that she needed to catch a breath of fresh air outside, Su Ah stood up from her seat.
Oh, did I drink too thoughtlessly?
She hadn’t noticed while sitting, but as she stood up and started to walk, the sunken alcohol swirled around, and the intoxication hit her all at once.
Staggering, Su Ah left the store and slumped onto the flowerbed in front of the shop.
A cool breeze grazed her heated cheeks.
“Ah. The coolness feels good.”
Su Ah looked up at the sky that had already darkened.
“When did it get this dark? It’s completely night, it’s night.”
Blink, blink.
Her slowly blinking eyes gradually lost speed, and soon, they smoothly closed.
“……Ah. I miss Mr. Ha Joon.”
With those words unconsciously blurted out, Su Ah, unable to fight off her sleepiness, let her head drop.
How many minutes had passed?
Ha Joon appeared at the end of the alley.
Of course, Ha Joon knew that Ji Hoon had sent him the picture to tease him.
But the reason he had to come anyway was because of the male employee in the picture.
The moment he saw the last picture Ji Hoon sent, he was sure.
It was him.
The man who sat closely with Su Ah in the lobby, whispering to her.
I will find out your name today no matter what.
With a fierce look in his eyes, Ha Joon hurriedly searched for the place of the party, and before he could even look for that man, he found Su Ah sleeping in the flowerbed.
“Ms. Su Ah. Why are you out here?”
Ha Joon grasped Su Ah’s shoulders and gently shook her.
“Hmm……”
Like a deflated balloon, Su Ah’s body weakly swayed, her eyelids barely opening.
“Huh? Ha Joon, no, it’s Vice President.”
Even in this state, she corrected her address.
“Did the Vice President also come to eat beef? The beef here is really delicious. It disappeared in my mouth as soon as I put it in. Want to try? Ahh.”
How could there be any beef left that she had already swallowed? What was she supposed to check? Su Ah opened her mouth wide and turned her head here and there.
She was really drunk.
It was immediately apparent.
‘Min Ji Hoon, that rascal. I told him not to let her drink too much.’
Ha Joon narrowed his forehead and let out a long sigh.
“Ms. Su Ah. Can you stand up?”
As he tried to lift her, supporting her shoulders,
“Vice President?”
Min Joon, coming out of the store, widened his eyes.
He had been worried when Su Ah hadn’t returned from the restroom and was on his way to look for her.
You, the one I’ve been looking for.
At the sight of Min Joon, Ha Joon narrowed his eyes and tensed the corners of his eyes.
Unaware of the situation, Min Joon quickened his steps and was soon in front of Ha Joon.
“What brings the Vice President here……”
As Min Joon came close and met his gaze, he flinched.
It was only for a moment, but it seemed like he saw something like a murderous intent in Ha Joon’s eyes.
‘Did I drink too much? I’m seeing things.’
Min Joon blinked several times, then reached out towards Su Ah.
“Ms. Su Ah. How can you sleep here? Let’s get up…….”
Thud.
A fierce sensation grazed the back of his hand.
Min Joon stared at his own hand, which had been swatted away before it could even touch Su Ah, with a dumbfounded expression.
“Just leave her.”
Where are you trying to touch?
A force was put into Ha Joon’s low, subdued voice.
“Ah. So, sorry.”
Without a moment to think of a reason, Min Joon quickly apologized.
“Vice President.”
At the sound of his name, Ha Joon turned his head.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
