Su Ah woke up to the warm morning sun that seeped in through the curtains.
Normally, she would have been busy stretching her body this way and that, but today was different.
Because there was Ha Joon, who was still softly sleeping like a child next to her.
After the commotion yesterday, she had stayed up all night by Ha Joon’s side, worrying that he might get a fever like the last time, but fortunately, nothing of that sort happened.
Last night, about 30 minutes after he fell asleep, he seemed to have a nightmare, furrowing his brow a few times, but as soon as she gently patted his back, Ha Joon seemed to regain his calm and fell asleep.
She was relieved.
Having the memory of being abandoned once, she did her best to comfort him and protect him from receiving the same kind of wound again.
Perhaps Su Ah’s best was the best thing for Ha Joon.
Her gaze poured over Ha Joon’s sleeping face.
It was only natural for her gaze to be drawn to his perfect features filled within his small, fair face.

Wow. How can a man’s eyelashes be this long? They’re even better than mine, even though I spend money on getting an eyelash perm.
Without realizing it, Su Ah reached out towards Ha Joon’s eyelashes, and soon her fingertips touched his eyelashes.
“Hmm…”
Feeling her touch, Ha Joon let out a faint moan and his eyelids rose thin as he writhed.
“Wow, it’s Su Ah.”
Ha Joon chuckled lowly in a voice that proved he had just woken up from sleep.
Su Ah gently smoothed out Ha Joon’s tousled bangs.
“Did I wake you up? You can sleep more.”
“No, it seems like it’s time to get ready for work?”
“The team leader asked me to let Ha Joon rest at home if he didn’t seem likely to come to work today. He even said he’d mark me as sick leave as well.”
“Ji Hoon?”
What’s with him, turning away so coldly yesterday?
Ha Joon opened his eyes wide as if he couldn’t believe it.
“It’s true. It seemed like your family was very worried about you yesterday, Ha Joon. So the team leader saw your face for a moment and went back to his hometown, saying that he was worried about his uncle.”
Ah, the chairman….
The thought that came to mind broke the smile that had been hanging on his lips.

“Anyway, can you go to work today?”
“I don’t have any aches, of course I should.”
Ha Joon sat up and shrugged his shoulders to indicate there was no problem.
“Ah, really? I was hoping I could take a break today thanks to you, Ha Joon. Guess not.”
“Oh, I didn’t know that. Then I’ll be sick today.”
At Ha Joon’s flustered words, the corners of Su Ah’s lips twitched.
“No, you should go to work if you’re not sick. I’m going to get ready for work too.”
As she said that, Su Ah twisted her body and stretched her legs under the bed.
“Huh? I think I’m sick right now? No, I’m definitely sick. I don’t think I can go to work like this?”
As Ha Joon held his forehead and looked at Su Ah, he could see her shoulders shaking slightly.
“Su Ah?”
He cautiously called her name.
“I’m just joking. Just a joke. I was going to go to work right away if you seemed okay, Ha Joon.”
Su Ah, who turned her body around, was busy laughing.
“If you want to take a break for a day, Su Ah, you really can. Should we take a break together today?”
Despite saying it was a joke, this man asked too seriously.
Right. It was my fault for forgetting Ha Joon’s habitual seriousness syndrome.
“No, it really was a joke. I like going to work. Of course, it’s not that I like it more than being with you, Ha Joon, but it’s not enough to want to skip without a special reason.”
Su Ah was sincere in her words.
“Let’s go to work. To work.”
Su Ah quickly got out of bed, and Ha Joon, who was tilting his head, also got up and moved to the bathroom.

A moment later, Su Ah, who had finished preparing for work, approached Ha Joon, who was tidying up his hair in front of the dressing room mirror, holding a tie.
“I’ll tie your tie for you.”
As Ha Joon bent over to lower his height, Su Ah wrapped the tie around his shirt collar and slowly tied the knot.
“I need to go back to my hometown.”
Su Ah spoke in a calm tone, her gaze fixed on the tie.
“I need to talk with my family and clear up any misunderstandings.”
“Yes, I, I should……”
Did he not want to go?
Seeing the person who usually answered everything so precisely stumbling over his words, she wondered if he didn’t want to go.
Su Ah lifted her gaze and looked straight at Ha Joon’s face.
“Do you not want to go to your hometown?”
Was the wound from yesterday too deep? It was a cautious question.
“No, it’s not that, it’s just……”
“Just?”
“I’m not sure what to say even if I go. They might still be upset with me.”
“What are you worrying about? They’re your parents, Ha Joon.”
Su Ah covered Ha Joon’s cheek with her small hand.
“Even if everyone points fingers and calls him a bad guy, the existence of parents is to take the side and say our child isn’t like that.”
Su Ah’s hand put in a bit more strength.

“Especially for a son like you, Ha Joon, who is so wonderful and praiseworthy, your parents couldn’t possibly be disappointed.”
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…?
