Like a child who discovered an amusing toy, Jina caught the tail of Hye-yoon’s words. The speed of the words she had shown so far was somewhat different. Hye-yoon had also changed. The mature demeanor had completely disappeared without a trace.
As curious as she was imaginative, the ‘if’ situation that Jina painted was so vivid.
“Then really… I wouldn’t have stayed still! I would’ve gone straight to learn sports.”
“Sports? Why all of a sudden?”
“If I don’t finish with words, I’ll use fists. I’ll hit him even more than I did before.”
Jina burst into laughter at Hye-yoon’s revengeful eyes. This woman made her wonder what was real, but she wanted everything to be real. The more she saw, the more interested she became.
“Hehe. Writer, you’re really funny. Did you… like women?”
“…What?”
Jina moved her steps slowly. The stride that suited her long legs closed the distance with Hye-yoon in just two steps.
“I really want to get closer. Want to exchange numbers? Which neighborhood do you live in?”
“Ah…”
Hye-yoon behaved like someone else once again. The confident vigor she showed a moment ago disappeared, and her mouth hung open at the sight of the woman in front of her. The most beautiful woman she had ever seen, standing a step ahead emitting the fragrance of flowers.
She swallowed her saliva, then lifted her head slightly. This time, what emotion would she show? Jina also lowered her eyes to see. In the moment when the sincerity grew, the eyes became more moist.
“I… like men.”
“Hehe, I know! What more explanation do you need when you’re dating Jiho oppa.”
Jina laughed the loudest she had so far. A whispered thought, ‘She’s really charming,’ mixed in with her laughter.
Seeing as much as she wanted, saying what she wanted to say. Although similar actions, she wondered what was different. The other person was trying to see the heart and express the heart, and what she tried to convey was completely different.
“I wondered how Jiho oppa managed to captivate you… I also got captivated.”
Jina and Hye-yoon looked at each other as if they were curious about each other.

At that moment, the waiting room door opened, and the cold winter wind rushed in. Only winter air entered the door, and there was still someone standing outside. Jiho looked into the waiting room.
“…Huh?”
“Ah…”
A letter of joy and a letter of sigh.
He quietly picked up the gestures of the two people he was sending. To Jina, he responded with a small nod as a sign of greeting. Although he seemed a bit tense, his eyes were not going in that direction. He couldn’t stay for long.
His gaze naturally fell on Hye-yoon. As sweet as the smile flowing in her eyes, his voice was melodic.
“Is the conversation over?”
“…Yes. Almost.”
“Then let’s go. We have to.”
With a gentle urging, Hye-yoon glanced at Jina for a moment. She was looking at Jiho.
“Jina, see you at the filming site later.”
“Ah… Yes.”
Only now did Jina realize her presence after hearing Hye-yoon’s voice. She sent a light eye greeting, and until Hye-yoon left the waiting room, Jina, as usual, looked at Jiho. Since his gaze was fixed elsewhere, she could watch him at ease.
If there is love, this is the expression someone makes. His face was so handsome that she didn’t notice her mouth hanging open.
Hyeyoon, who left the room, bowed her head slightly to Jina’s manager who was still guarding outside. She wondered why she felt defeated when she had perfectly executed everything up to, ‘Make sure others can’t come in.’
“I didn’t know we would be together.”
For a moment, Jiho’s hand smoothly slipped through her fingers. Winter could be felt on his back of the hand where his fingertips touched.
“Were you outside the whole time? You weren’t even in the car. Your hand is cold.”
“Yeah. I was talking to the director.”
Hye-yoon tightened her grip on the hand she was holding. Throughout their walk, Jina’s small hand was trying to share warmth in every possible way, making Jiho lift the corners of his mouth. In fact, the conversation with Minwoo had ended a while ago. The time outside the waiting room was long.
“Oh, Mr. Jiho. I’m sorry, but you shouldn’t go inside…”
The car was visible, but there was no response. Just in case, she came to check, and there was a sturdy man guarding the door. Jiho was glad to hear his words, as if he was letting her know that he was here.
As the man approached the guarded door, he suddenly sidestepped.
“Really, you can’t…”
“…”
Why would he step aside while saying it’s not allowed? Jiho couldn’t understand his actions, but it was because he didn’t know how intimidating his gaze was. Especially when the other person’s actions were not to his liking.
Fear felt through gaze and atmosphere. Men were better at conveying that.
Although they easily approached the door, that was all.
“Why would you say that to me? To a woman who ran to her boyfriend saying she would kiss him.”
“Because I like him… It was because I made a mistake because I’m inexperienced. Everyone makes mistakes.”
The lax waiting room had a gap between the doors, so if you focused a little, you could hear the conversation inside.
“I… like men.”
There were moments when it almost got caught, but Jina’s laughter was so loud that her sarcastic remark blended in effortlessly.
After not walking for long, staff members gathered around with all the equipment set up. Hye-yoon then gently released her clasped hands. At the same time, Jiho’s voice was heard. Perhaps because the weather was getting colder, it felt unusually warm.
“How did you grow up so charming?”
“…Huh? Me? All of a sudden?”
The sudden remark, the hand that was about to be released holding on tighter, and his steps turning not towards the filming site but towards the parking lot. Everything happened at once, so Hye-yoon felt that something was odd instead.
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.]
