Nodding, the grandmother, who smiled like a child, placed a wooden plate neatly filled with Dora-Ji Tea in front of Jae-hong.
“It’s sweet and delicious. By the way, why isn’t Taekwang’s nose showing these days?”
“…….?”
“That rascal used to have sugar all over his mouth. Give him a call, let’s eat together, it’ll be fun.”
“Mother.”
“What? Won’t you call him quickly?”
“Taekwang… he’s dead.”
With complicated thoughts, Jae-hong, in front of his grandmother, placed the wooden plate containing Dora-Ji Tea and sat down.
Sunwoo, who went up to the detached house, looked around to find Eunjae. Perhaps because it was raining, the detached house, though it was early, looked dark as the lights were off.
Even though he said he would be on the third floor, Eunjae was nowhere to be seen. Sunwoo didn’t hesitate and briskly moved his steps towards the bedroom.
Creaking open the closed bedroom door, Sunwoo entered, but Eunjae was not there either.
“Jieunjae, Eunjae.”
He’s not here either, where could he have gone? It was when Sunwoo, scratching the back of his head, muttered to himself, wandering around the bedroom.
“Oh, Sunwoo! When did you arrive?”
Sunwoo turned his head in the direction of the sweet voice.
Eunjae’s figure, who was just coming up the stairs, was visible through the wide-open bedroom door. Although only his eyes were visible, Sunwoo’s face, which had lost its smile for a moment and turned pale, regained its color.
“Where were you? The lights weren’t on.”
“I went to my parents’ house. To get tteokbokki ingredients.”
“We’ll go together later.”
As Sunwoo looked down, Eunjae’s slippers touched Sunwoo’s line of sight. It was the pink slippers that Eunjae wore in the apartment. Sunwoo chuckled.
“Why did you bring that again?”
“You bought it for me, Sunwoo. It’s really comfortable.”
“If it’s so comfortable, bring mine too.”
As if he hadn’t thought that far, Eunjae’s small lips opened and closed. Ah, Sunwoo’s next time. Eunjae whispered quietly, laughing prettily.
“You know. Sunwoo, I…”
Standing in front of the bedroom door, Eunjae suddenly rushed into Sunwoo’s arms.
“I passed the exam!”
Perhaps due to carelessness or because of the strength of Eunjae rushing into his arms, Sunwoo’s knees buckled, and he fell onto the bed, limp. Eunjae, who rushed into his arms, was also there.
Colliding with Sunwoo’s chest, Eunjae, who fell down, was surprised, blushing, and using Sunwoo’s chest as a lever, he lifted his upper body.
“Oops! Are you okay?”
“… Not okay.”
As Sunwoo grimaced, surprised Eunjae felt his chest again.
“Where does it hurt? Did you get hurt?”
“Here… hurts.”
Grumbling, Sunwoo pointed to his waist. Eunjae, with an uncertain expression, gently touched the place indicated by Sunwoo’s finger with his palm.
“What should I do? I’m sorry. Does it hurt a lot?”
“Here hurts too.”
His finger, which had been pointing to his waist, slowly moved up to his lips. Eunjae narrowed his eyebrows, lightly touching the place indicated by Sunwoo’s finger with his palm.
“Oh no, I’m sorry. Should I hit you harder?”
“You really have to hit me. Hit me once more!”
Eunjae glared at Sunwoo, and once again, he forcefully struck his chest. Even though Sunwoo kept rubbing his chest, it kept tingling.
“Why do the results come out so quickly?”
“These days, the results come out quickly.”
Despite Eunjae’s blunt tone, Sunwoo smiled gently and raised his hands to her cheeks.
“See? I told you there would be good results.”
“Is it because I got energy from you, Sunwoo?”
Smiling broadly, Sunwoo pulled Eunjae’s hands that were on his cheeks and kissed her. He gathered Eunjae’s soft hair, flowing down due to gravity, and swept it over one shoulder, then kissed her lips again.
“I have something I want to ask you, Sunwoo.”
“What now?”
“I’ll tell you if you promise to listen.”
“Go ahead.”
“If you promise.”
Sunwoo took a short breath and nodded in agreement.
“Every time you say something like this, I get worried. I wonder what strange request you’re going to make.”
“Oh, it’s not like that.”
Eunjae’s lips, beautifully drawn, lightly touched Sunwoo’s lips and then separated. Sitting up, Eunjae, who had shown a sign, unfolded a paper in front of Sunwoo’s eyes.
“Sign here.”
“What’s this?”
Sunwoo, lying down, quickly stood up, somehow snatching the familiar paper.
“Oh, I tried not to let you know. They say they need a guardian’s signature.”
Sunwoo’s hand holding the paper trembled slightly. Although he expected it, his expression did not look good.
“After my mom got sick, I realized so many things. If you apply for this—”
“No.”
“…Later, if a family member is a candidate for transplantation, they also get priority—”
“No, this won’t work.”
The paper Eunjae handed to Sunwoo was an organ donation application.
“It’s the conditions for donating when you receive a brain death diagnosis. If, by any chance, when I’ve lived my life to the fullest, and it’s time for me to give a gift from the sky to someone who needs it, so that they can return to their family like our mom, wouldn’t that be nice?”
“…”
“We also protected our family thanks to those people.”
Eunjae firmly held Sunwoo’s trembling wrist.
“Quickly, please. If you promised to do it, keep your promise.”
Sunwoo folded the paper in half and put it on the bed, then hugged Eunjae tightly. His lips, touching Eunjae’s nape, tickled slightly.
“Even if I say I don’t want to, Eunjae will stubbornly do it.”
“Yes.”
I know it’s not an easy decision. I, too, hesitated countless times before picking up this paper, thinking, writing, and getting your signature.
So Eunjae expected that Sunwoo would be angry at her seemingly firm attitude. It was obvious that it would seem like stubbornness. She thought he would say, “How can you decide something like this without discussing it with me?”
Maybe I misunderstood. Near her nape, I heard a soft laughter from Sunwoo.
“Let’s do it together.”
Surprised Eunjae bit Sunwoo’s arm. Contrary to expectations, he was smiling.
“… What?”
“Sign mine too, we need a guardian’s signature.”
“…”
Sunwoo’s lips lightly touched Eunjae’s trembling lips once, twice, then their positions were reversed in an instant.
“Why can you do it, and I can’t?”
“It’s not like that…”
“So let’s do it together.”
“I’ve thought about it enough and made a decision… Sunwoo, you should think a bit and make a decision too.”
“I don’t want to. What Eunjae does, I’ll do everything.”
Lowering his head, Sunwoo, who was tormenting Eunjae’s lips endlessly, grabbed Eunjae’s T-shirt around the neck and pulled it down. A white nape was revealed between the stretched T-shirt, and a subtle fragrance wafted.
With a pulled-up smile, Sunwoo said,
“Instead, next time, I’ll be the one to suggest doing it, without asking anything.”
“Okay.”
Satisfied, Sunwoo smiled and slowly swept Eunjae’s nape with his thumb. Feeling ticklish, Eunjae’s shoulders shrunk.
“I’m in a bit of a hurry right now.”
Without delay, Sunwoo lowered his lips onto her slender nape and gently nibbled on the tender flesh.
“Are you hungry?”
Eunjae smiled and shook her head.
“No, not at all.”
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…?
