Oh, really embarrassing.
I was the one who screamed, and I was the one covering my face. If there was a mouse hole, I wanted to crawl into it.
‘I can’t even look at Hadel’s face. How awkwardly am I staring at him?’
I provoked him to hug me first, and now I’m here not knowing what to do.
‘I have my dignity as an elder! What a disgrace this is.’
It happened when I couldn’t bring myself to remove my hands covering my eyes.
Hadel, who had paused for a moment, began to move slowly. However, the problem was that his movement was extremely peculiar.
“Huh?”
Blushing, I lowered my hands and looked at Hadel. Except for the faint light from the dimly lit lamp intended for sleeping, I couldn’t see Hadel’s expression clearly.
But he was clearly smiling.
“That’s a problem.”
“…What?”
What kind of reaction is that? I furrowed my eyebrows lightly. At that moment, Hadel went in rough.
“Gasp!”
“Because you don’t trust yourself to be gentle.”
The last words scattered in my ears like an auditory hallucination.
It was indeed the first time. Except for supporting comrades on the battlefield, I had never held hands with someone of the opposite sex.
‘But for some reason, after meeting Hadel, falling in love, and becoming lovers happened.’
Of course, I had no experience in dating, but considering my age and the things I heard from people around me, I was theoretically perfect. Deep down, I believed in myself like that.
‘The crazy one wasn’t the king but me…….’
In the end, the theory didn’t help at all, and after the showdown with Hadel, the world remained unchanged and peaceful.
Except for me.
I woke up the next day, looking haggard. The first thought that came to my mind was this.
‘Why didn’t anyone tell me that the next day would be so agonizing?’
I opened my eyes, thinking that I should change into a human form before the servant came to wake me up. However, I felt so weak that I lay back on the bed.
But lying down, my back hurt, and my buttocks hurt too.
‘In the end, leaning against the pillow was the best.’
The best I could do to move my body as little as possible and change my posture to minimize the pain.
That alone seemed to drain all the strength from my body. I sighed again with a futile thought.
In the end, it was a reflection on the brave me from yesterday.
‘I was clearly being stubborn. When I asked if Hadel and Espen were lovers, I got carried away and…’
As I tried to explain how much I loved you, I seemed to have come to the crazy conclusion that ‘showing it physically is faster than blabbering.’
Remembering my feelings at that time, I shook my head.
‘Why did Hadel’s fiancée suddenly appear! The desire to stamp my ownership on him was purely because of her.’
She came running as if her life depended on becoming Hadel’s wife, talking about some unattainable aspect, making me feel impatient.
There were various other reasons as well. Why Hadel didn’t follow the usual sleeping arrangements with me last night.
‘Why am I wandering around until the night when humans become the bravest?’
In the end, the transformed anchovy-like situation was entirely due to my provocation. I let out a deep sigh.
“……It was foolish on either side.”
When I opened my eyes, I found that my bedside was chillingly empty, so I sighed with relief. Unexpectedly, an answer came from the side.
“Why are you suddenly drowning in self-loathing?”
“You!”
When I turned my head, Hadel, who seemed to have just taken a shower, was standing there, wiping the water dripping from his hair with a towel.
While I was a dried anchovy, Hadel was in a sparkling and fresh fish state. Irritated by the freshness, I exclaimed.
“You, you, there’s no moderation with you!”
“What do you mean?”
Asking back naturally. Looking at that clean face, it was hard to imagine that he was the same person I pushed until he begged for mercy yesterday.
Oh well, who should I blame? I groaned again, putting my full weight on the pillow.
“I was deceived. It was a trap.”
“That’s something I should be saying.”
What! Saying that even after seeing me in this state!
Despite speaking harshly, Hadel delicately brought water and a towel to my lips. With no strength to flick a finger, I quietly sat on the bed, drinking the water Hadel provided.
‘Ah, drinking water will revive me.’
I coughed a couple of times. Perhaps due to my mood, my voice sounded a bit strange. As I absentmindedly touched my neck, Hadel sat next to me and began massaging my legs.
“I tried to endure it. It was you who provoked me.”
“That, that’s true, but……. Ouch! There, it hurts!”
“Bear with it a little.”
Why were my calves so sore, and how did Hadel know about it? I decided to ignore it. I lay down, occasionally whining about the pain during Hadel’s massage. Suddenly, I opened my eyes and raised my head.
‘No, why is he so skillful at this? It’s like he planned to do this after spending a night with me.’
With no energy and aching body, it’s clear that I’m half out of my mind. I looked at Hadel suspiciously and said.
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…?
