Younger Man at Work (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 148
“Where have you been and what have you been doing for the past 17 years?”
Asked by the anchor, Kang Hye Sun replied with an embarrassed expression.
“…I don’t remember.”
“You don’t remember?”
“At the time, I was separated from my husband and feeling deeply distressed, so I left home for a while. I recall impulsively boarding an intercity bus, thinking I might just get some fresh air—but everything after that is a complete blank. I suddenly came to my senses, wearing unfamiliar clothes, sitting at a bus terminal. That was three autumns ago.”
“You disappeared 17 years ago and only regained your memory three years ago… So you’re saying you’ve lost fourteen entire years of memory?”
“Yes. The doctors think it’s highly likely I endured something extremely traumatic during that period, causing amnesia—but… I truly remember nothing at all.”
Kang Hye Sun sighed deeply and shook her head slightly, clearly frustrated even with herself.
“Could it possibly have been a crime? Something like abduction or unlawful confinement?”
“I suppose that’s certainly possible. However, even if a crime did occur, I firmly believe it would be very different from what the public is speculating. I’ve already stated this clearly to the prosecutors as well.”
What “the public is speculating” referred directly to Chairman Kwon Yong Chul and his mistress, Ji Yeon Hwa—since most people assumed they were behind it all. But Kang Hye Sun was implying she personally didn’t believe her husband or his lover were the culprits.
“Then, since your memory returned three years ago, why didn’t you immediately announce your return?”
“When I regained consciousness, the world had changed so drastically—and, more importantly, my physical condition was terrible. I went back to my old house, but strangers were living there already. In the end, I sought out an old acquaintance for help. With their support, I quietly stayed in the countryside, spending the last three years studying the current world and recovering my strength.”
“What about your son? Did you let your son, Kwon Seung Joo, CEO of Dae Won Construction, know you were alive?”
Kang Hye Sun shook her head.

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
