He had never encountered such a talkative woman. Despite meeting her for the first time today, it didn’t feel like it was their first encounter.
When he told her not to come again if she kept talking, she asked if it was okay to continue coming as long as she was quiet.
Of course, he should have told her not to come, especially since he had clearly instructed Seol Ji-hyun not to let anyone in until the regular housekeeper recovered.
“Just do whatever you want.”
He responded, contradicting his own will.
Even though he said she could do as she pleased, if she didn’t like it, she wouldn’t come, he rationalized his action to himself.
“Ah!”
Woo-jin’s arm recoiled instinctively at the sudden burning pain.
He was used to holding down children who tried to escape during treatment. Soo-young firmly gripped his arm again, gently blowing on it and carefully applying the antiseptic.
She seemed almost like AI with her somewhat unnatural movements, but Woo-jin felt a bit of warmth seeing her human-like response.
“What are you applying?”
Woo-jin yelled as he yanked his arm away. Soo-young, thinking he hadn’t seen the antiseptic, showed it to him.
“Antiseptic, antiseptic. I’ll apply this, and then some ointment. You’re not hurt as badly as I thought. The bandage must have been to keep it dry, right?”
With no reply from Woo-jin, he just bit his lower lip. The touch was more careful compared to when Hyung-min treated him yesterday.
Knowing his extreme dislike for contact, whenever Woo-jin got hurt, Hyung-min would forcibly treat him while Ji-hyun held him down. Maybe he thought it was okay for Ji-hyun to hold him.
He struggled so much he even ended up getting an injection. But today, her touch didn’t bother him at all. It was just the wound that hurt.
Soo-young, for her part, was applying the antiseptic and ointment as if it was nothing serious, but the gaping wound clearly worried her.
The thought of him getting injured because of her made it hard for her to look him in the eye.
“The bandage is bloodied. Shall I replace it with a larger bandage? It might be more comfortable for moving.”
Then, a dry, emotionless voice came from his moist lips.
“Just do it as the doctor did. Don’t do it your way.”
“The bandage is a bit difficult to wrap.”
“That’s why you shouldn’t have messed with it in the first place.”
Soo-young, feeling unjustly accused, held up the bandage in front of him.
“I’m not a doctor, but when it’s soaked with blood like this, it shouldn’t be reused, right? It could get infected. You know, like in medical webtoons, when gloves get blood on them, they immediately take them off and put on new ones. Haven’t you seen them?”
Woo-jin then looked directly at her.
To be honest, he was just looking in the direction where he guessed her eyes would be. But the eye contact felt so accurate that she thought he was actually seeing her.
Intimidated by his intense gaze, Soo-young stuttered.
“Didn’t you see them? Oh, maybe men don’t really read webtoons.”
“I can’t see.”
“What?”
“I can’t see. That’s why don’t just leave things lying around.”
“Oh…”
Realizing the reason behind his peculiar actions and expressions, Soo-young looked at him with a blank expression. The bandage she had been holding loosely in her hand slipped and fell to the floor.
Soo-young peeled a banana for Young-mi and took one for herself.
“Don’t buy these anymore. With your mom and you both buying them, we’re overflowing with fruit.”
Young-mi spoke while biting into the banana.
“Did mom come by?”
“Yeah. She stopped by for a bit while on an errand. Did you go there again today? That representative called. He said you could just come for the next three weeks.”
“Really?”
She felt grateful that he had permitted her to come after saying she could do as she pleased.
At the same time, she felt a bit guilty for being thoughtless towards him, not knowing about his disability. He seemed so perceptive, their gazes had met several times. And when she fell, he had caught her head but never touched her body.
Lost in thought, Soo-young was brought back to reality by Young-mi’s question.
“How did you do it? Did you meet the homeowner?”
Startled, Soo-young blurted out.
“Yeah, I did meet him.”
“You met him? How? I worked there for half a year and never saw the homeowner’s face. Is he a man?”
“Yeah, a man.”
“How old? Does he look old?”
“In his late twenties? Early thirties?”
“That’s similar to the representative. I’m not sure it’s okay to send you to a house full of men.”
“Nothing will happen.”
“How do you know? You can’t know men.”
“This man… he just doesn’t seem like that.”
It wasn’t because of his disability, but something about him felt trustworthy.
If he had wanted to do something, he would have done it the day she fell. Despite not being able to see, he was physically stronger. But he never touched her body, only supporting her head.
Young-mi didn’t know he was visually impaired, and it didn’t seem like the representative had told her.
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…?
