Your Former Wife (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 6
Seo Yeon was able to see the doctor right away, without waiting, thanks to Sung Jun having made the reservation in advance.
At the time, Seo Yeon suffered from insomnia. The cause was a severe headache brought on by excessive stress. Because the headache kept her from sleeping properly, her body gradually weakened, and as a result, she frequently caught colds.
For Seo Yeon, it wasn’t a serious illness—just an ordinary, mildly painful day she could endure.
So she decided to decline the doctor’s suggestion that she receive an IV drip. After all, she’d only been granted thirty minutes by Sung Jun.
“It’s just that I’m feeling a bit under the weather. I don’t think I need the IV.”
She was afraid that if she let those thirty minutes slip by pointlessly, she might forever lose the chance to talk with her husband.
“You’ve got to be joking.”
Yet immediately, a sharp, interfering voice cut in from right beside her. Slowly turning her head, she saw her husband glaring at her intently, his eyes fierce and wide open.
“You came all the way to the hospital, yet you’re refusing treatment?”
Sung Jun scowled, furrowing his brow in apparent disbelief as he stared at Seo Yeon for a moment, then turned his head toward the doctor.
“You don’t need to listen to anything she says. She’ll take it. You, get up.”
In the end, Seo Yeon had no choice but to rise from her seat before Sung Jun became even angrier. Upon leaving the examination room, a nurse waiting outside the door guided them to the IV room.
Seo Yeon sat down on the bed indicated by the nurse and looked around. The spacious IV room held only Sung Jun, herself, and the nurse. The nurse spoke in a gentle voice.
“Ma’am, please lie down comfortably on the bed now.”
Yet for some reason, Seo Yeon hesitated to lie down in front of Sung Jun.
Right after their marriage, Sung Jun had been so overwhelmingly busy that it was difficult even to see his face.
If she hadn’t had the brief chance to see him off in the mornings as he headed to work, she might not even have felt she was truly living with him.
Perhaps because of that, lying down on the bed in front of her husband felt embarrassingly awkward.
She wished he would just step out for a moment, but judging by the way he kept staring at her with clear disapproval, she doubted he ever would.
Helplessly, she lay down as instructed by the nurse, and soon a needle entered her pale arm. A slight stinging sensation traveled up her arm.
While Seo Yeon was observing Sung Jun’s face, his thick eyebrow lifted sharply the instant the needle pierced her skin. Even that gesture seemed elegant, as if performed by an actor.
His straight forehead, deep-set eyes, slender nose, and strong, refined jawline—all combined to create an exceptionally handsome man.
Before their marriage, during their dates, her heart used to flutter so intensely at the sight of that striking face that she found it hard to look directly at him.
After their relationship deteriorated following the wedding, she avoided his gaze to spare herself the pain of his cold demeanor, and even brief eye contact made her flustered and stiff.
The problem now was that it was the former feeling—the pre-marriage flutter—that made it hard for her to face him.
Seo Yeon’s brow furrowed.
Why should it be surprising, of all things, that her husband was handsome?
His appearance was so perfectly overwhelming it naturally commanded attention—but still…
‘How utterly foolish…’
She couldn’t understand why those thrilling feelings she’d had for him before marriage kept resurfacing.
Wanting to deny reality, Seo Yeon sharply turned her head away and closed her eyes.
Apparently interpreting this as her simply trying to rest due to exhaustion, Sung Jun, fortunately, said nothing further.
The surrounding silence gradually soothed her previously tense nerves.
Perhaps it was just her imagination, but at first she kept sighing from the fever, whereas now, lying still, she felt at least some of the fatigue easing.
Soon after, a familiar melody reached her ears.
‘It’s Chopin.’
Chopin’s Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2—the very piece softly playing in the hotel restaurant the day she first met her husband.
Of all things, this was the music that had accompanied them at the start of their happiest memories—and now, hearing it again stirred something strange within her, as if their relationship had somehow rewound to before everything fell apart.
In truth, everything had already gone completely and irreversibly awry.
Still, she was glad to see her husband again. She’d thought she might never see his face or hear his voice ever again.
Oddly enough, closing her eyes made her more certain this wasn’t a dream.
Cautiously, Seo Yeon opened her eyes. Her husband stood guard like a wooden totem, still rooted in place—indeed, the moment her eyes opened, his gaze locked directly onto hers, as if he’d been watching her all along.
She wished he would speak first, yet contrary to her hope, he merely tilted his head slightly upon meeting her eyes, focusing even more intently on her.
His gaze was so deep and sincere that, unconsciously, Seo Yeon swallowed hard.
They were alone in the room, with no one else nearby. His steady, unwavering attention made her deeply uneasy and flustered.
The only sounds filling her ears were the beautiful piano melody and the beating of her own heart.
Her fingers, clutching the edge of the blanket, gradually tightened.
After calming her racing heart, Seo Yeon cautiously asked,
“…Why are you staring at me like that?”
“It’s quite the rare sight—a person catching a cold in the middle of summer. I’m just enjoying the unusual spectacle.”
But the moment Sung Jun opened his mouth, that fluttering feeling vanished without a trace. A *spectacle*? Flustered, Seo Yeon blinked rapidly.
“I’m aware plenty of people catch colds, even in summer.”
Sung Jun studied his sullen-looking wife for a moment, then said, as if truly baffled,
“Really? I’ve never seen it before today. I suppose I lack experience. My mistake.”
Then, as if mocking her once more—leaving her doubting her own ears—Sung Jun added another teasing remark, and Seo Yeon felt a sudden surge of indignation.
Her expression grew even more sullen. Had he always been this irritatingly sarcastic?
“Surely, Mr. Sung Jun, you’ve caught a cold at least once in your life.”
“Not once.”
“Not even once?”
“In fact, today was the first time I learned it could be serious enough to make someone collapse.”
“That’s a lie.”
“And what exactly would I gain by lying about something so trivial?”
“So you’re just going to keep staring at me like that?”
“I’d better get a good look. It’s not an everyday sight.”
“…”
Faced with Sung Jun’s relentless jabs, Seo Yeon glared at him fiercely. Yet he didn’t so much as blink under her glare—in fact, he seemed intrigued by her reaction, observing her with calm amusement as he asked,
“What’s got you staring so intensely?”
Keeping her eyes fixed on his, Seo Yeon replied,
“You speak so insolently—I’m starting to think you really are the man I married.”
It was an overly candid remark. As if to prove it, Sung Jun’s eyebrows shot up dramatically at her words. A moment later, he frowned again, seemingly struck by mild shock—or perhaps finding her statement even more absurd the more he pondered it.
At first, she regretted her childish retort, realizing it merely mirrored his own provocation. But seeing his visibly unsettled expression, she found herself thinking, *So what if I said it?*
In fact, the refreshing sense of relief she felt suggested that occasionally speaking one’s mind might not be such a bad thing after all.
She now regretted having foolishly suppressed herself for so long.
After all, no one ever acknowledged—or appreciated—that self-restraint.
“You’re acting strangely today.”
Yet Sung Jun’s voice, heavy with suspicion, instantly made Seo Yeon flinch.
His gaze, already fixed on her, now sharpened further with doubt.
“Are you truly Han Seo Yeon—the woman I know?”
Caught off guard by his piercing question, Seo Yeon’s mouth dropped open—and simultaneously, Sung Jun’s eyes grew even sharper.
“You seem suspicious.”
“W-what do you mean, suspicious? Are you saying I’m—am I supposed to be a ghost or something?”
Flustered, her voice rose involuntarily. On reflection, during this period she had lived each day burdened by guilt, feeling indebted to both Sung Jun and his family.
Especially in front of her husband—such an intimidating figure to her—she never dared speak more than a word or two. So naturally, his suspicion wasn’t entirely unfounded.
Still, she couldn’t possibly tell him the absurd truth—that she’d come from the future.
If she confessed such a thing in front of him, he wouldn’t just disbelieve her; he might well conclude she was insane and commit her to the hospital indefinitely.
After all, he was a man of utter rationality and icy composure.
Even for beloved family, he showed no leniency—so what chance did she, his wife in name only, have?
“It really is strange. Ghosts can’t possibly exist in this world.”
While Seo Yeon silently gnawed on these thoughts, Sung Jun’s gaze remained intensely fixed on her.
“This face—I know it well.”
Just then, as Seo Yeon stood flustered, she heard the door open. Conveniently, the nurse entered. With the same kind smile as before, she approached and gently said,
“Thank you for your patience. Are you feeling a bit better? I’ll be removing the needle now—it may sting slightly.”
Contrary to the nurse’s warning, Seo Yeon felt no pain—likely a sign of the nurse’s considerable experience.
What was her husband doing?
Curious, Seo Yeon cautiously turned her eyes toward Sung Jun—and discovered his gaze was fixed intently on her arm.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.

Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
