Feeling a little better after a good day’s sleep, I got up and went to Shasha.
“Did you prepare this for me?”
“Yes! I wish Sister wasn’t sick! I love Sister so much! You’re the only one who hugs me and says I’m pretty. Of course, you might feel different, but… Shasha loves Sister anyway.”
The words of the Countess still occasionally made Shasha feel gloomy, and I could sense that all too well.
When she was with me, she would laugh without a care but then suddenly become sad again. She looked fine, but she was not.
I knew that the emotional abuse she had suffered since birth couldn’t be healed with just a few days of affection, so instead of saying many things, I decided to listen to Shasha’s story.
“Do you like me that much?”
“Sister is like a fire.”
Does she mean that I have a fiery temper? I thought so in the past, but not now.
“Why?”
“You’re warm. And so beautiful when I look at you. Sister’s face is really big.”
“What……?”
“Your nose is big, and your eyes are big, everything is big. So you’re very pretty.”
Shasha is a child, and I’m an adult, so of course I’m big. We have a 13year age difference. I was honestly a little taken aback by her naive, endless talk.
‘Is my face really that big?’
I seriously brushed my face. But Shasha didn’t mean it that way and cupped her cheeks with both hands, smiling brightly.
“You’re beautiful. So much……”
I asked Shasha, who was tilting her head.
“If Sister’s so pretty, can’t you tell her apart from the flowers?”
“No. I can tell. Sister is human. Sister. Different from flowers.”
“Oh…… Yes. That’s right.”
“You can’t compare them, you’re even prettier! Why compare? Sister is prettier! You’re the prettiest of all the flowers here.”
“Shasha……!”
I was touched.
She’s such a lovely child, so why couldn’t her family see this beauty?
‘They must have been afraid.’
Of her excellence, her perfection, an ability our family had never seen before.
They must have been more fearful when Shasha was young. They had no hesitation in calling her a monster. These parents, who called a speechless child a monster instead of her name.
People unconsciously fear someone superior to them. And they somehow find that person’s flaws to make themselves feel superior.
Especially if she’s the youngest in the family. If she’s young, all the more. The family is the child’s whole world. And so they began to manipulate the child they called a monster.
While not giving her love because she was different, they thought she was useful when Shasha started making money.
They didn’t physically abuse her, but they withheld love. While claiming to raise her well, they did not hesitate to emotionally abuse her.
Thanks to Shasha, she grew up a little differently from the other children.
I too, after first becoming Isabella, did not fall in love with Shasha immediately.
The pressure from tremendous power. The words unconsciously uttered without proper education. The strangely gloomy appearances.
I disliked and was uncomfortable with all of that. But upon closer observation, Shasha was a lovelier child than anyone else.
“Shasha.”
It was just that she didn’t know how to express herself. She was warmer than anyone else.
Then.
“What in the world is this mess!!”
The door suddenly opened and an uninvited guest entered the room, unable to contain his astonishment and screaming.
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…?
