Yeowoon collapsed onto the sofa as soon as she returned home. Staring blankly into space for a moment, she soon let out a sigh.
“What should I do…”
Having a meal with Minjiwook while enjoying the beautiful scenery had been truly delightful, but his sudden confession afterward… It was incredibly confusing.
The director likes me.
It was a scenario she had never considered. Even when Seol Ji-o warned her to be cautious around the director, she simply dismissed it as jealousy. But now, to think that he genuinely had feelings for her…
Yeowoon closed her eyes.
“I have someone I like. I’m sorry.”
When she managed to say these words, Minjiwook had just silently listened. His calm acceptance, without surprise, left Yeowoon even more bewildered.
She had stated her rejection with tact, but she wondered if he perceived it as rejection.
“I should have just mentioned that I’m meeting someone.”
She regretted skirting around the issue of her relationship with Seol Ji-o. Thinking back, it seemed a bit regretful. Since she had no intention of getting close to him in the first place, it would have been better not to give any room for misunderstanding.
“Oh, what should I do…!”
Thinking about how to face Minjiwook on the set tomorrow was daunting. And there was another problem—how to explain all of this to Seol Ji-o.
It was truly perplexing.
She hadn’t even talked about having a meal with the director, yet she returned with a confession she never expected to hear. How hurt Seol Ji-o must feel.
Yeowoon’s mind was a jumble of apologies and embarrassment.
“I should talk to Ji-o first.”
Yeowoon sat up, took out her phone, and checked for any messages from Seol Ji-o. There was no contact from him.
“Must be busy.”
Casually scrolling through the message inbox, she opened the messaging app and began typing.
Yeowoon sighed after sending the message.
As she absentmindedly gazed into space, her eyes landed on a rabbit doll at the edge of her sight. A good luck charm that Minjiwook had bought for her.
Suddenly, the smile Minjiwook had shown earlier in the day lingered in her mind.
“I’m sorry, Director…”
Seol Ji-o was on the move after finishing a coffee ad shoot. An interview with a magazine was scheduled right after, so he had to quickly grab a bite to eat in the car and change into another set of clothes.
Biting into a sandwich, Seol Ji-o took out his phone.
He wondered if Yeowoon had contacted him, so he checked his phone. Just then, a message from her popped up.
[Ji-o, let’s talk after filming.]Smiling, he asked Choi Hyun, his manager, “Chief Choi, how much longer do you think our magazine interview will take?”
“If it takes about two hours, we should be done around 8 o’clock.”
“Sounds good.”
Seol Ji-o felt content with the number 8. If they finished by then, it would leave him enough time to drop by Yeowoon’s house after filming and see her face.
He replied to Yeowoon’s message, leaving a note that he would drop by today. Thinking about seeing Yeowoon after work seemed to give him the strength to endure the remaining schedule.
The magazine interview was more boring than expected and finished later than anticipated.
It wasn’t his idea to suddenly greet fans worldwide with a live broadcast. The live broadcast, which he thought would take about ten minutes, extended to an hour due to the pouring questions from fans. Seol Ji-o’s expression darkened unknowingly.
If Choi Hyun hadn’t tactfully requested to end the broadcast after noticing this, who knows if it would still be ongoing.
Upon arriving home, Seol Ji-o quickly showered and changed his clothes.
“I thought I would arrive by 9 o’clock, but it’s already 10.”
Regretfully muttering to himself, he grabbed the car keys and stepped out.
Fortunately, the road was quiet enough for him to step on the gas as he arrived in front of Yeowoon’s house. Wearing a large hood, he ascended to the 4th floor where Yeowoon’s house was located.
Entering the code familiarly and unlocking Yeowoon’s door, the scent of Yeowoon greeted him.
Now feeling somewhat alive, Seol Ji-o stepped into the house.
“Yeowoon.”
The house was neatly arranged, perhaps because it was her day off.
Passing through the cozy living room, when he opened the bedroom door, he saw Yeowoon lying on the bed.
Considering the lights were still on, it seemed like she had fallen asleep waiting for him.
Seol Ji-o approached carefully, suppressing the sound of his footsteps, and sat down on the edge of the bed. Gently stroking Yeowoon’s sleeping face with his finger, he lightly kissed her forehead.
He wanted to wake her up, but her sleeping face, like a baby’s, was too adorable to disturb.
At that moment, a vibration sound came from somewhere.
“Is it Yeowoon’s phone?”
Pure curiosity led him to pick up Yeowoon’s phone lying on the bed. However, the moment he saw the message notification on the locked screen, his face froze instantly.
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.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
