The atmosphere of this place was entirely different from the bright and clean workshop.
A room imbued with a dark, gloomy, and seemingly secretive atmosphere.
Small wooden boxes were arranged in a display case that filled one wall, much like the perfumes in the workshop.
One peculiar feature of this suspicious space was…
‘The smell of grass?’
It was filled with the smell of grass, not perfume.
“Please sit over here.”
Luther, who had seemingly appeared at the table in the center of the room, called to me.
Without a word, I moved and sat in the chair opposite where he stood.
Luther approached the display case, took a wooden box, and sat across from Lamein.
Just by looking at it, I doubted it contained perfume.
“This is the item you requested.”
Luther opened the box he had placed on the table.
Inside the box were several small, transparent glass bottles and some unidentifiable herbs.
‘So that’s why it smells like grass?’
As I was examining the herbs inside the box, Luther lined up the small transparent bottles one by one on the table.
‘What is this? Medicine?’
Inside the glass bottles were small round objects that looked like pills.
Luther lifted one of the glass bottles.
“This medicine eliminates throat pain and cools the body’s heat.”
Lamein’s eyes, which had been focused on the glass bottle, slowly furrowed.
It was indeed medicine.
“And this medicine is taken when digestion isn’t possible. And this medicine is taken when you can’t sleep.”
Luther continued to explain as he lifted each glass bottle one by one.
As I listened quietly, the medicines Luther described were common drugs that anyone could find in the real world, such as fever reducers, digestive aids, and sleeping pills.
Did Lamein request these?
As Luther finished his explanation, Lamein, who had been gazing at the medicine bottle, slowly opened her mouth.
“Aren’t these medicines commonly available in medical clinics?”
Luther’s gaze, which had been meeting mine squarely, furrowed as if he had heard something ridiculous.
‘Ah. Isn’t it?’
At Luther’s ambiguous response, Lamein quickly closed her mouth.
“You are the person who knows best that these medicines cannot be obtained in our kingdom.”
Against his words that made no sense.
“Ah. Is it me?”
Blink, blink. Lamein responded quickly, blinking her eyes.
‘I know nothing, so I just have to go boldly. What can I do?’
Luther, who had been staring with slightly more furrowed eyes, relaxed his mouth.
“Madam. Are you doing this because of the price?”
“The price?”
I know everything. Luther looked at her and smiled a little more deeply.
“I understand. I’ll lower the price a bit more for you.”
Suddenly, Luther stood from his seat, returned with a ledger, and spread it wide open on the table.
And slowly opened his mouth as he slowly skimmed the densely written words inside the ledger.
“You have 5,000 Seri left from the 10,000 Seri you gave as a deposit last time.”
What? How much?
‘10,000 Seri? A billion? Lamein gave that as a deposit?’
I forcefully kept my eyelids from suddenly shooting open in surprise.
No wonder there wasn’t a single coin in the safe.
“The original price for these medicines today is 200 Seri, but I will especially give it to you for 150 Seri. Are you satisfied with this?”
Luther pushed up his lips, indicating that there would be no further compromise.
He’s selling medicine that you can buy for 1020 thousand won at a pharmacy for 1.5 million won.
This is something that would flood the internet news window.
‘The greatest scammer is sitting in front of me.’
I gave him a look that said not to say such nonsense.
“As you know, our master will not negotiate any further on the price.”
“The master?”
“Yes. These are items that our master has painstakingly collected from all over the world. It means they’re worth that much.”
“Let me meet him.”
Tell the owner to come out right now.
She spoke assertively with that kind of nuance and gently pushed up her chin.
“As you know, the master does not meet anyone.”
“Why?”
“Because he doesn’t want to.”
A man shrouded in a veil?
“Who is he?”
“It’s a secret.”
“Can’t you even tell me his name?”
“No. I can’t.”
“Why?”
“As I said, he does not wish to, and he has never met anyone who trades here.”
A man who sells highpriced medicine while perfectly concealing his identity.
‘What. Now that he’s like that, I’m more curious.’
Hmm. Lamein, who made a small sound, fell deep into thought.
As soon as I entered here, many things started to tangle up in my mind.
And several questions arose.
First.
‘Why did Lamein order these drugs with such a large sum of money?’
Second.
‘So where did she use the drugs she bought all this time?’
Third.
‘Who is this scamlike man who brings in such drugs that can’t be obtained in this kingdom and sells them at an unbelievably high price?’
There were more questions, but I couldn’t sort them out, so I decided to check out only the most important things.
“Ruter?”
“Yes, ma’am. What can I do for you?”
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…?
