As Christmas approached, the weather became dramatically colder. Thanks to that, whenever Woojin and Sooyoung went for a walk, they inevitably ended up entering my cafe.
Once they found their usual seats on the right side of the counter, Woojin stood up immediately and said, “I’ll get it. Just sit here.”
When Sooyoung extended the crutch without saying a word, Woojin grabbed it with his large hand. Although the distance from their seats to the counter was only three steps, Woojin used the crutch to reach the counter and brought back their drinks.
At first, the cafe staff, who found it strange, had now become accustomed to it and disappeared inside after placing the drinks. When Woojin picked up the tray with the drinks and turned carefully, a middle-aged woman, who looked like a resident, approached the counter while looking at the menu attached to the wall.
Startled by her presence, Woojin stepped aside, and the drinks on the tray fell to the floor with a loud noise. Fortunately, the plastic cups prevented them from breaking, but the surroundings became a mess with spilled drinks.
“Oops, I’m sorry, student. I didn’t see you.”
The middle-aged woman shouted in surprise, and Woojin, taken aback, hesitated for a moment before replying quietly, “I apologize. I couldn’t see and couldn’t move away.”
Noticeably handsome and polite, Woojin’s blindness seemed to evoke a sympathetic light in the middle-aged woman’s eyes.
When the staff quickly came to clean the floor, Woojin apologized again, “I’m sorry.”
“Oh, it’s okay.”
As the staff nonchalantly swept the floor, the middle-aged woman apologized to Woojin with a regretful expression.
“Where’s your seat? I’ll take you there.”
“Oh, please just point the way. My girlfriend is probably still sitting there.”
When she turned her head, a young woman with a cast on one leg was looking in their direction.
“Oh, there she is. Her leg is injured again. Huh?”
The voice was not as annoying as expected. Seeing that Sooyoung seemed to have sorted out the situation with Woojin, she spoke loudly.
“Woojin, I’m over here!”
While Woojin turned towards the sound, the woman bowed slightly towards him. The middle-aged woman, perhaps worried that she might grab his arm, was uneasy the whole time but thankfully did not engage in such rude behavior.
As Woojin slowly walked using the crutch, Sooyoung quickly stood up with only one leg and received the tray from him, placing it on the table.
“What should we do since one drink is gone?”
He said, feeling the armrest of the chair, as he sat down.
“We can share, right?”
Sooyoung deliberately sucked through the straw making a loud noise.
“Did mine spill or yours?”
“Yours, Seo Woojin’s.”
“Phew, lucky.”
There was consideration in her casual words. Sooyoung smiled subtly and spoke in a cheerful voice.
Consideration was present in casual words. Smiling discreetly, Sooyoung spoke in a cheerful voice.
“Do you know how brave Seo Woojin was? Seeing him here, he wasn’t flustered at all and spoke so well, it surprised me. Weren’t you like that before?”
“Were you surprised?”
As Woojin reached out, Sooyoung pushed the drink towards him so that it touched his hand.
Woojin took back the drink and, placing his mouth on the straw Sooyoung had used, drank it in one go.
Looking at him, Sooyoung, who refrained from ordering hot drinks even on cold days for fear that he might spill, thought it would have been a big problem if she had ordered today, given the near accident from the table to the counter, which was just a few steps away.
“Before…”
Woojin opened his mouth quietly.
“I hated revealing that I was visually impaired more than dying. So, I didn’t go out much. But when I revealed it in front of people after your accident, surprisingly, it didn’t seem to matter. No, honestly, I was so out of it that I just hoped people would protect you instead of me.”
“Then, am I seriously injured?”
When Sooyoung asked teasingly with a smile, Woojin quickly answered with a stern expression, “Don’t play with your body like that. Stay still.”
“It’s a joke, it’s a joke.”
When she quickly replied, the middle-aged woman who had brought a new drink for Woojin came over with it.
“I spilled it earlier, so I brought the same one. Please take it.”
“Oh, thank you.”
Sooyoung answered brightly with a smile. The woman, who had been quietly watching her, suddenly patted Sooyoung’s shoulder gently and said softly.
“The young lady is… impressive.”
At the short words, Woojin’s face stiffened.
However, regardless of his expression, the middle-aged woman, with a kind face, looked alternately at the two and then returned to her seat.
“What’s so impressive?”
Sooyoung mumbled as if she couldn’t understand, and Woojin, frowning, said, “You not knowing what’s impressive is impressive.”
“Huh?”
With an uncomfortable expression, he prodded the drink with his hand and soon raised his head, asking, “Is your throat a bit better? It seems better than when we talked on the phone yesterday.”
His voice had become hoarse from reading a book.
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…?
