“Kang Hyun, you are my first love.”
During her adolescence, her heart always fluttered whenever she watched his movies. He was her benefactor and first love. Maybe that was why no other men caught her eye.
When they met again, she kept her distance due to his inexplicable hostility, but she couldn’t stop the attraction she felt towards him.
“Aren’t you going to say something?”
“I like you too, Kang Hyun.”
Even though it was an expected answer, hearing it made Kang Hyun’s heart swell.
“Really?”
Only then did life return to Kang Hyun’s previously pale face at her words.
“Yes.”
“Let’s stay like this for a while. I’ll go to my room in a bit.”
“Kang Hyun, then, can I sleep here tonight?”
Yun hesitantly asked.
“Can you?”
“Last time I slept well in this room.”
On a day like this, she wanted to stay by his side.
“That’s true. I did sleep really well that time. Thanks to that, I was in top shape when filming. But you have to study.”
“I need to get to work too, so I should sleep now, and you have to stay up all night from tomorrow. It’ll be hard if you can’t sleep. So let’s sleep here. It’s important that you get at least some sleep, Kang Hyun.”
Yun was worried that he would suffer from nightmares again. She usually didn’t wake up easily once she fell asleep, so she wasn’t confident she could wake him up, but she wanted to stay by his side at least for tonight.
“So, can I?”
“Yes.”
Yun nodded.
The two of them lay side by side on the bed. Yun covered him with a blanket. Perhaps because they were so close, one blanket seemed sufficient.
‘It’s cozy.’
In the small room, on the small bed, lying next to Yun under the blanket, he felt a warm feeling.
At that time, Yun’s cherished desk came into his sight. For some reason, he had a hunch that this desk would stay with Yun for a lifetime.
The faint smile that spread on Kang Hyun’s lips at the thought of Yun treasuring even the desk he gave her, just as she felt attachment and memories to an old laptop.
“Come, rest on my arm and sleep.”
When Kang Hyun stretched his arm, Yun hesitated for a moment before snuggling up to him.
“Is it okay?”
“Yes.”
His body was so big that at first, it was a little scary, but now she liked his embrace. And she liked the familiar scent that always came from him.
After a while, Yun began to fidget as his solid arm was too hard and uncomfortable.
“Uncomfortable?”
“It’s not that, but your body, Kang Hyun…”
“What’s with my body?”
“It’s a bit hard, so I think it might hurt if I get pressed while sleeping like this.”
Yun remembered how her body ached and felt sore here and there after sleeping pressed against him last time.
“Is that so? Then, will this do?”
Kang Hyun withdrew his arm and lay flat, facing the ceiling.
“I think that would work.”
“But let’s hold hands while we sleep.”
“Yes.”
As Yun took his hand, Kang Hyun interlocked his fingers with hers.
“Is my body too hard?”
“…A little.”
Well, actually, it was quite hard. It was a wonder how he maintained his muscular body when he must have been too busy to even exercise.
“I’m sorry for being so hard.”
“Huh? Pfft.”
Yun let out a small laugh. At her laughter, Kang Hyun also laughed along.
“Shall we sleep now?”
“You fall asleep first, Kang Hyun.”
Yun closed his eyes for him, gently caressing them as if massaging.
“Are you going to wake me up if I have another nightmare?”
“Yes.”
“If you’re next to me, I’ll have a good dream. So don’t worry and sleep too.”
“No, I can’t. Once I fall asleep, I sleep deeply, so I might not know even if you’re suffering.”
“You’re just too tired.”
Yun didn’t waste a single minute or second. He had been taken aback when he saw the packed daily schedule on her tablet.
“You have to go to work tomorrow, so sleep now.”
Kang Hyun pressed his lips to the back of her hand.
“Yes.”
Yun also pressed her lips to the back of his hand.
‘I like Kang Hyun so much.’
Yun always felt comfortable maintaining some distance from people.
It got worse after leaving the house in Seongbukdong. She was not talkative, and she maintained a certain wall with her friends.
Especially towards those who approached her with kindness. Yun simply preferred people not to be interested in her.
But in fact, Yun was afraid of being ignored by people. When her friends turned their backs, she was scared that she might be treated like a ghost, like in the house in Seongbukdong.
So, in order not to be shunned by anyone, she lived by shunning them. But she kept wanting to rely on Kang Hyun.
“Will you finish early tomorrow?”
“Yes. But there is a company dinner.”
“Company dinner?”
At the mention of a company dinner, Kang Hyun opened his eyes.
“Do you have to go?”
“I couldn’t attend in the first semester, so I think I have to go this time.”
“Do you also drink?”
“I’m not good at drinking, so I’m just going to attend and slip out when it’s appropriate.”
“That’s a good idea.”
Kang Hyun suddenly thought of the male teacher he saw when he took Yun to school last time.
“All the teachers will be there.”
“Yes, it’s a full staff dinner.”
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
