“How great your skin is, you’re so beautiful.”
One of the staff at the shop spoke with admiration.
“I thought your bare face was pretty, but with makeup, you’re truly a goddess.”
As more staff flocked around, Yoon only felt uncomfortable. Yoon didn’t like such attention.
“Now, come this way. Mrs. Kim has prepared an outfit for you.”
Following the staff member, she put on the clothes prepared by Kim Seo Jung, and she was indeed the precious youngest daughter of a wealthy house.
The natural makeup that emphasized her innocent face, and letting her usually tied up long hair loose with lovely waves created a fresh and elegant atmosphere.
On top of that, she wore a neutralcolored flared dress that matched her fair, translucent skin tone, making her so perfect that everyone was pouring out admiration.
“Oh my, this dress isn’t easy to pull off unless you’re exceptional, but it really suits you. You’re so beautiful.”
At that moment, Kim Seo Jung’s secretary entered the shop. He was there to escort her to the venue in case she went off track.
“Let’s go.”
Seo Jung’s secretary escorted her to the car.
She entered the hotel, which was the chosen venue. The thought of her confrontation with Kim Seo Jung here just a short while ago involuntarily made Yoon’s face grimace.
Guided by the staff into the room, Cha Yoo Hyun hadn’t arrived yet. When a staff member pulled out a chair for her, Yoon quietly sat down. The agreed time had already passed, but no one showed up.
‘He’s late.’
While checking the time, Yoon began to wonder what she was doing here at this moment.
Yoon felt empty knowing that a relationship she thought was completely over could be reconnected at any time due to their needs. It was a relationship she couldn’t refuse.
She could bear it alone somehow, but thinking of Ho Sik and Ok Soon, she couldn’t. She was the type who could harm the two of them anytime. Hence, she concluded that she inevitably had to get married as Seo Jung demanded.
Yoon had searched for Cha Yoo Hyun before coming. He was 14 years older than her. Still, at least he didn’t seem like a bad person from the photos.
The thought of hoping he wouldn’t be a strange person came to mind, but it was just absurd thinking about having to marry someone she didn’t know like this.
‘What will become of me?’
She was only scared of what kind of events might be waiting for her once she got married.
When she first stepped into the palacelike house in Seongbukdong at the age of 12, she was swollen with expectation at the shiny exterior and crossed the grand gate.
She had thought that despite having lived in poverty and pity until now, she would live like a princess under a wealthy father.
However, what awaited her was a cruel reality. She had to endure every day amidst contempt, cold treatment, ridicule, and hunger.
‘Sigh…’
Yoon sighed, thinking that this marriage might be the same.
‘No. I’m an adult now. It’s different from then.’
Just as Yoon was comforting herself after taking a sip from the water glass in front of her, the door swung open, and someone came in.
‘Kang Hyun oppa?’
Yoon was so surprised that she abruptly stood up from her seat.
“H… how did you… oppa…?”
“When did you see me to call me oppa?”
Kang Hyun stared at her and spat out coldly.
“Sit down. No need to jump up like that.”
Kang Hyun walked over with long strides and flopped down in front of Yoon. He then stared at her with a plain expression, as if observing her.
‘Did she come with a makeup concept that makes her look innocent?’
Kang Hyun let out a small laugh. Her tiny face with fair skin emphasized her innocence.
However, she was the audacious illegitimate child who asked to be married into a chaebol family.
‘She doesn’t seem like that kind of woman.’
But how could one know a person’s inside by just looking at their face?
As Kang Hyun, who had encountered countless people who stabbed in the back with innocent faces, he had a habit of suspecting everyone at first.
On the other hand, Yoon was staring blankly at Kang Hyun, her mouth open in surprise, wondering what was going on.
“W… why is Cha Kang Hyun here?”
Yoon, regaining her senses for a moment, stammered out a question.
“Cha Yoo Hyun is not coming.”
At Kang Hyun’s words, Yoon’s eyes widened.
“So, does this mean the meeting is cancelled?”
“I’m here, aren’t I? To see you, for the meeting!”
Kang Hyun enunciated each word with a poker face.
“What?”
Yoon was so shocked that she almost dropped the glass of water she was holding.
Was it Cha Kang Hyun, not Cha Yoo Hyun? She was sure that her match was supposed to be Cha Yoo Hyun.
Then she thought, what did it matter who it was? It was still a strategic marriage that she was being pushed into.
“Are you disappointed? Because I’m not the heir of Woo Sung Construction?”
“……”
Kang Hyun looked at Yoon, who had frozen in surprise. The more he looked at her, the more attractive she seemed.
Being an actor, he had seen a lot of beautiful women, so only exceptional beauty caught his eye.
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…?
