The Wife Who Ran Away (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 72
Min Hee was sitting in the farthest corner of the cafe.
This cafe was tucked away in an alley with little foot traffic, so there were always no customers at this time on weekdays. Knowing this well in advance, Min Hee had deliberately chosen this place for their meeting.
As she waited for Yeon Joo, Min Hee glanced around. Just as expected, there was only one other customer. There was also only one staff member—a young employee who appeared to be in her early twenties and was absorbed in a mobile game.
A single indoor CCTV camera was installed in the cafe, and the spot where Min Hee sat was in its blind spot.
Even if she were caught, there would be no evidence to use against her. Min Hee tightened her grip on the handbag beside her, trying to steady her nerves.
As time passed and the appointed hour arrived, the sound of the cafe door opening came from the entrance. She looked up and saw Yeon Joo walking in.
Given the cafe’s small size, Yeon Joo immediately spotted Min Hee and headed straight toward her seat. Min Hee lowered her head to greet her.
“Hello, Ma’am.”
“It’s been a while, Ms. Min Hee.”
From the very beginning, Yeon Joo addressed her by name rather than by her former title as secretary. Min Hee hadn’t asked why, but she didn’t mind being called by name.
Min Hee turned toward the counter and said,
“Let’s order a drink first. What would you like?”
“Oh, I’ll get it.”
“No, I asked to meet you, so I’ll treat you.”
Yeon Joo looked over the menu and paused briefly. Because she was pregnant, she had to avoid anything with caffeine, leaving her with few options. After some thought, she said,

After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
