His stiff face seemed unsure of what expression to wear. It looked like he might be angry, sad, or helpless.
Just like Jinwook’s appearance when Yeonju disappeared.
Yeonju and Jinwook headed to a taxi waiting nearby.
Jinwook, along with the driver, loaded Yeonju’s luggage into the trunk. Yeonju was bidding her final farewell to Minwoo and Mina.
Facing the two, Yeonju said, “I’m going now. Please take care, everyone.”
“Yeah. Don’t worry about us. You should always stay healthy, Yeonju.”
“Thank you so much for being kind and treating me like family all this time… I’m really grateful.”
In Yeonju’s lowered gaze, tears finally welled up once again. No matter how many times she expressed her gratitude for Mina and Minwoo, it felt insufficient.
They were the people who accepted her unconditionally when she had nowhere to go, providing a warmth she had never felt before.
Seeing Yeonju cry, Mina also burst into tears, turning the scene into a sea of weeping once again.
After tightly embracing Yeonju, Mina said, “Yeonju, you have to live happily.”
“Sniff…”
“To be honest, that guy is so good-looking that I’m still worried he might be too good to be true…”
Releasing Yeonju from the hug, Mina looked into her eyes.
“I trust your choice. You will surely find happiness, Yeonju.”
“…”
“If he ever troubles you, contact me. I’ll really… won’t just stand by.”
Yeonju burst into laughter at Mina’s serious declaration.
“Yes, I will.”
“You’ll be missed, and I’ll want to see you. It’s quite far, but make sure to come and visit.”
“Yes, I’ll definitely come back.”
As the affectionate farewells were exchanged, Mina turned her head. Addressing Minwoo, who stood silently behind, she said,
“Why aren’t you saying anything, Minwoo?”
“…”
Minwoo had not uttered a single word until now. While Yeonju found his behavior curious, she approached Minwoo first and said,
“Thank you for everything.”
Minwoo didn’t talk much, but he was a kind person. Their conversations flowed well because they shared common interests.
He lent Yeonju art books she needed and taught her a lot about guiding.
“Stay healthy, and may all your dreams come true.”
Yeonju genuinely wished for Minwoo’s well-being and happiness. Looking into Minwoo’s eyes full of sincerity, Yeonju finally spoke.
“…Yeah. Take care.”
“Then, I’ll be going now.”
Yeonju bowed once again to the two, then rushed towards the taxi.
Jinwook, standing in front of the taxi, opened the door, and Yeonju got in. Following her, Jinwook also entered the taxi, and it slowly began to move.
As they passed through the narrow alley and turned onto the main road, the driver, glancing at the rearview mirror, uttered a word.
“It looks like someone is following us.”
Understanding the driver’s words, Jinwook looked at the rearview mirror. Sensing an odd atmosphere, Yeonju also followed his gaze and looked at the mirror.
In the mirror, Minwoo running towards the taxi was visible.
“Wait a moment! Please stop the car for a moment!”
Understanding Yeonju’s shout, the driver hit the brakes.
Yeonju, with a surprised expression, quickly opened the window. On the other side of the glass, Minwoo, who had stopped where the car was parked, was visible.
Minwoo was panting heavily. Looking at Yeonju with widened eyes, he said,
“Sis, thank you for everything.”
Minwoo, despite being short on words, was a warm person. Their conversation flowed smoothly due to shared interests.
He lent Yeonju the art books she needed and taught her a lot about guiding.
“I hope you stay healthy and achieve everything you desire.”
Yeonju wished sincerely for Minwoo’s happiness and well-being. Looking into Minwoo’s eyes full of sincerity, Yeonju also teared up.
“…Yeah. Take care.”
With that, Yeonju turned away from Minwoo, and the taxi drove away.
“Live a life where you can be happy, not someone else.”
At Minwoo’s genuinely heartfelt words, Yeonju’s pupils shook violently and became moist.
After glancing towards Jinwook, he said to Yeonju, “If that guy ever troubles you again, feel free to contact me.”
“…”
“I’ll… hide you in a place no one can ever find when that happens.”
Yeonju smiled with teary eyes.
“Yes, I will.”
Seeing that smile, Minwoo’s eyes welled up with tears. He took something out of his coat pocket and handed it to Yeonju, giving his final farewell.
“Take care. You must be happy.”
“You too, senior.”
Minwoo, who had captured Yeonju’s smile in his eyes, took a step back. He waved his hand, and Yeonju shook hands with him. The car started moving again.
In the side mirror, Minwoo, still gazing at the distancing car, was visible. Seeing that, for some reason, Yeonju felt a lump in her throat.
Observing the whole situation, Jinwook muttered to himself, “Quite a noisy farewell.”
He looked down at what Yeonju held in her hand.
“What’s that?”
Yeonju, curious as well, looked at the item in her hand. It was a sketchbook paper folded twice, given by Minwoo.
Yeonju slowly unfolded the paper. As she spread it completely, her eyes slightly widened.
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.
