If Yugun did that, it might alleviate the stress Yura had endured because of Oh Sejin these past days.
But more importantly, Oh Sejin was an artist set to perform at Songlim. Any untoward incident would reflect badly on Songlim.
“What will you do by meeting him? Don’t create unnecessary talk. I’m in charge of that artist.”
[Dash] What? Why are you planning his concert!Yura, not wanting to continue the conversation with her increasingly agitated brother, ended the call with a calm voice.
“Enough. I have to work.”
Lee Hyun had been busy since the morning, attending a lunch with political figures and participating in back-to-back meetings.
He had a simple sandwich for lunch and visited a construction site for a large shopping complex. Even after returning to his office, he showed no signs of fatigue.
Without a moment’s break, Lee Hyun was reviewing documents at his desk when his executive secretary, Ahn Myungjin, entered. Lee Hyun, without looking up, prompted him to report.
“Go ahead.”
“IF Management proposed to Songlim first,” Ahn said.
Lee Hyun slowly leaned back in his chair, crossed his long legs, and stroked his chin thoughtfully.
“So, it wasn’t a project meticulously crafted by Songlim.”
“Yes, IF Management was initially considering Argon, but due to pianist Oh Sejin’s strong request, they decided on Songlim.”
A smirk crossed Lee Hyun’s lips.
“Oh Sejin’s request, impressive.”
He found it amusing that Oh Sejin, who had chosen to disappear without a word of farewell, was now cunningly lingering around Yura.
To Lee Hyun, Yura was just a family acquaintance and the sister of a long-time friend. He had watched her grow from a little girl to a woman and felt she shared a similar disposition to his own.
Always composed, not displaying her emotions, rational, and objective in every matter. That’s why he had considered her an ideal marriage partner.
The change in Yura’s behavior was first evident during her relationship with Oh Sejin. It was the first time Lee Hyun saw the usually stoic girl smile so warmly. The soft curve of her lips and the gentle arch of her eyebrows when she looked at Oh Sejin were fascinating to him.
He was amazed at how different she could be, but their brief romance ended abruptly. Whether as a rebellion against the breakup or an expression of long-standing grievances against her father, Jin Kangsu, she left home to start an independent life.
Since then, Yura seemed to keep her distance from men. Lee Hyun wondered how Yura would change now that Oh Sejin had returned. Would she avoid men because she couldn’t forget him, or had he made her build walls against all men? This situation might even turn to his advantage.
Lee Hyun, reading Oh Sejin’s shallow tactics like an open book, asked, “Who’s the coordinator?”
“The coordinator also…”
“Oh Sejin requested for Jin Yura to be the team leader, I assume.” Lee Hyun interjected confidently. If not for Oh Sejin, there would be no reason for him to choose Songlim.
“Interesting. Oh Sejin and Jin Yura.”
Lee Hyun was now curious about Oh Sejin’s intentions in reappearing after all this time.
Artists, whether they sing, play instruments, or act, are incredibly sensitive and fickle. Event planners must satisfy their needs and ensure successful performances. Jin Yura had contributed significantly to bringing Songlim to the second position in the industry through years of such successful event planning.
Now, perhaps, it was time to see the truth behind Oh Sejin’s gaze towards Yura.
As an outsider, Lee Hyun couldn’t make any definitive judgments or rash decisions, but the years and Yura’s profession could introduce some variables.
“Jin Yugeon, vice president of Jinwha Group, has started keeping an eye on Oh Sejin.”
Lost in thought, Lee Hyun’s attention shifted as Ahn Myungjin relayed Yugeon’s movements. He narrowed his eyes and gazed out the window.
“Always a step behind.”
Yura quickly led a meeting due to an unexpected agenda. The concert plans were already finalized, but now they had to change the production to match the performer’s new music selection. This last-minute change disrupted the plans, creating a challenge for Yura.
A concert’s success depended on the efforts of dozens or even hundreds of people. Yura knew the importance of acknowledging their hard work.
This situation was particularly frustrating as multiple teams had to overhaul their plans.
“Public Relations team, please prepare Plan A. Production team, align the stage with the ‘Healing’ concept. I know it’s tough, but please give your best until the end.”
“Yes, we understand.”
“With that, let’s conclude the meeting.”
As her team efficiently mobilized, Yura offered them a warm smile of appreciation.
“After the meeting, I’ll treat everyone to a company dinner.”
“If it’s a treat from Team Leader Jin, we’ll have to make time for it no matter what. Haha.”
“Thank you all for your cooperation.”
“Don’t mention it.”
Yura didn’t forget to offer words of encouragement to the employees as they left the meeting room one by one. She considered it an essential virtue of a leader.
As she entered her office, offering greetings, the youngest member of the team, Ji Hye, shyly approached with flushed cheeks and gestured towards a spot in the office.
“Team Leader, over there.”
Hearing her, Oh Sejin approached smoothly, wearing a gentle smile.
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…?
