“Should have woken me up if I was awake.”
The moment a warm breath touched her ear, Si Hyun froze.
“Or, one more time?”
Like a person burned by fire, Si Hyun was terrified and slipped away from Tae Ha’s grasp.
“Are you crazy? What on earth did you do to want a repeat!”
Tae Ha, pushed away forcefully, had a hardened expression. He, wearing a shower gown with crossed arms, glared at Si Hyun.
“You’re not saying you won’t take responsibility, are you?”
“What?”
“Aren’t you pretending not to know right now?”
“What responsibility to bear!”
Si Hyun jumped up. It was unbearably unjust.
“You seem to not remember because you were drunk, but think about it. Nothing happened.”
“You don’t remember either, right Miss Kang Si Hyun?”
“I don’t remember but…….”
“But how can you be so sure that nothing happened?”
“You are not a man!”
Si Hyun shouted out. She felt so frustrated she thought she would go crazy.
“Your memory seems to be faulty right now, but there’s nothing between you and me. Even if we were stranded alone on a deserted island, no, even if you were the last man left after the end of the world, I wouldn’t do anything with you!”
Tae Ha’s face hardened. Si Hyun quickly buttoned up the remaining buttons on her blouse, and picked up the handbag lying on the floor.
“Last night, it seems I made a nuisance of myself while drunk, I’ll apologize. But nothing happened between us, nothing will happen even if we die, so don’t worry. Go take a shower and go to work quickly.”
Leaving Tae Ha behind, Si Hyun exited the room with a clatter of her footsteps.
((()))
After Si Hyun left, Tae Ha collapsed onto the bed as he was.
Last night. Where to go for the second round, he left the busy team members discussing and turned around. He walked aimlessly wherever his feet led him.
Getting married.
Kang Si Hyun.
Sometimes, he had someone find out how she was doing, so he already knew. She was dating that man from six years ago.
But hearing the news of marriage directly from her, he couldn’t help but be shocked.
The reason Tae Ha chose to enlist as soon as he turned twenty was all because of Si Hyun.
By then, Si Hyun was already twentyseven. Fortunately, she didn’t have a boyfriend then, but she didn’t know when some guy would take her away, so every day was nervewracking.
“If it was the case, I should have just confessed. But the military issue was on the way. Tae Ha thought it was urgent to go to the military anyway.
Si Hyun tried her best to persuade Tae Ha to go to college.
“You can go to college first, and then take a leave of absence to go to the military later. Don’t you feel sorry for all the studying you’ve done so far?”
But Tae Ha didn’t listen.
The age difference between Si Hyun and him was seven years. He had no time to afford luxuries like college to catch up with those years. He wanted to quickly go to the military and come back, stand in front of Si Hyun as a proud man in society.
“Just don’t do anything and stay.”
The words he said when he enlisted, were the best confession he could make at the time.
“I’ll be discharged as soon as possible and run to you, just until then.”
It was a prayerlike plea, hoping she wouldn’t meet other men for just two years and wait for him.
But Si Hyun did not wait even a hundred days, let alone two years.
After a hundred days since his enlistment, as soon as he got his first leave, Tae Ha rushed to Si Hyun in his military uniform. And what he saw was a scene of her hugging and kissing another man in front of her house.
“Do you have to go in today?”
“If I stay out, mother will freak out. You know that.”
Tae Ha remembered the expression on Si Hyun’s face as she looked at the man that day. He couldn’t forget it even if he tried. He had watched her for a long time, but it was the first time he saw her looking so happy.
The most important thing for Tae Ha was Si Hyun’s happiness. Compared to her happiness, his heartache wasn’t that important. After all, it wasn’t something that had been happening for just a day or two.
So Tae Ha disappeared from Si Hyun’s life after that day.
When he got a scout offer from Future Bank, the first thing that came to his mind was that Si Hyun was working at Future Bank.
He couldn’t resist the urge to see her up close, so he accepted the offer without any plans on what to do next.
But, marriage……
Tae Ha was now honestly looking at his heart.
Did he just want to see her up close? Didn’t he have any plans?
No, it’s a petty excuse.
In fact, he wanted to take her away from that guy from the start. He wanted to make her his own.
……but the woman still doesn’t see me as a man!
Tae Ha swallowed hard as he felt the heat rising in his throat.”
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…?
