Perhaps because people in white gowns were busily moving around the buildings, the atmosphere was somewhat different from the rest of the campus, and it felt unfamiliar and awkward.
Ji Ho slowly walked, taking in the sight of the path he had always passed by indifferently.
He simultaneously recalled the student ID photo and the face stained with tears, hoping to coincidentally run into Lee Soo.
If he were lucky enough to meet her, he wouldn’t have to go through the trouble of finding her.
Ji Ho watched the faces of the passing women with a long gaze.
I wonder what her usual face would look like.
Would I recognize her at a glance?
As he was walking with these thoughts, his phone vibrated in his pocket.
He stopped walking and took out his phone.
Upon confirming the name Ha Jun that popped up on the screen, Ji Ho’s eyes sparkled suddenly.
“Ha Jun!”
Ji Ho joyfully answered the call as if he had been waiting for it.
[Hey. Ji Ho. I… ]Ha Jun replied in a flustered voice.
“I was about to ask you something. You said you know a lot of people in the med school, right?”
Ha Jun, who enjoyed socializing and was quite active, had a wide network of friends.
“Do you happen to know a med student named Lee Soo?”
[What? Lee Soo? I know her. She’s in the same skiing club as me. Why all of a sudden?]As expected, Ha Jun did not disappoint.
Ji Ho smirked in satisfaction.
“That’s good.”
[What’s good all of a sudden?]“Where are you now?”
[Hey, my appendix burst out of the blue yesterday, so I’m in the hospital now. I think I’ll be discharged around the weekend.]“What?”
So that was why Ha Jun called first thing in the morning.
Ji Ho was momentarily at a loss for words due to the unexpected news.
“Did the surgery go well?”
[Of course. It’s a common surgery.]“Still… must’ve been tough.”
“I was going to ask you a favor, but I’ll just figure it out myself. Rest up and get well. Let’s meet when you’re discharged.”
Ji Ho, who ended the call, brushed his hair back with one hand.
Skiing club, huh.
When he thought that the student union building, which was closer to the business school than the separated medical school, would be better,
“Ji Ho, what are you doing standing here? It’s the first period today.”
Jun Woo, who took the same class, found Ji Ho on his way and called him.
“Right. I should go.”
“It’s almost 9 now.”
“Already?”
Did I take it too easy?
Ji Ho checked the time that appeared on his phone screen.
8:47.
He had to hurry to avoid being late.
“Let’s go quickly! We’ll be late on the first day.”
Prompted by Jun Woo, Ji Ho started to move.
Thinking he’d have to make the effort to look for her.
((()))((()))
Friday afternoon.
Ji Ho entered the Truth Building to attend the first lecture of the mandatory liberal arts subject “Understanding Movies.”
The large lecture room, which could accommodate 200 people and was rumored to be a good class for getting grades, was packed with students.
The quiet lecture room suddenly stirred at Ji Ho’s entrance.
“Oh my! Oh my! It looks like Ji Ho is also taking this class!”
“Is that what they mean by a halo effect? I feel it every time I see him, his aura is no joke.”
The eyes of the female students gathered here and there all concentrated on him as if they had agreed to do so.
“Wow… Look at him, wrapped in luxury from head to toe. How much is all that?”
Clothes, bags, and even shoes that one wouldn’t dare dream of affording with a student’s allowance.
There was continuous admiration for his sophisticated and luxurious style.
“It seems like a tendollar Tshirt would look like a luxury brand if Ji Ho wore it. He doesn’t need to spend money on that…”
“He has more than enough money, what are you worried about? For him, that’s probably like us wearing a tendollar shirt.”
“What do you mean?”
“You didn’t know? Ji Ho’s grandfather is the founder of SN Financial.”
“Really?”
Upon hearing the new story, the woman’s eyes widened as if they were about to pour out.
SN Finance was one of the dream workplaces that university students wanted to work at, as it consistently ranked first in the financial sector’s job preference survey every year.
“I also heard the rumor and looked it up. The amount of stocks she received since she was young is tremendous. Her name even appeared in the articles.”
Her friend, who was next to her, also pretended to know and added to the conversation.
“Anyway, I already love this class before it even starts. Ha ha.”
Excited eyes from here and there scanned Ji Ho, garnishing him with various rumors and individual impressions.
Ji Ho calmly took in the gazes pouring at him and sat in his place.
The murmuring only quieted down when the professor appeared.
“Today, we will finish after watching a movie to be submitted as a response paper, along with a theoretical lecture on movie terms.”
The class began after a brief introduction.
It was a lecture that relied only on notes without a textbook, so the students concentrating on the lecture were busy.
An hour later, an old movie started on the screen of the lecture room where the lights were turned off.
It was a film that touched the heart of the viewer with the poignant love of a father who staked his life for his young son.
Near the end of the movie, Ji Ho’s gaze, which turned his head inadvertently, stopped at one place.
A woman’s face, softly wrapped in the dim light reflected on the screen.
Lee Soo was sitting like a freeze frame on the opposite side of the semicircular lecture room, looking at the screen.
Ji Ho, who recognized the woman at a glance, gave a stunned smile.
The same class, huh.
It was an unexpected coincidence.
At the moment when he thought it was regrettable that he couldn’t approach her right away, tears flowed down the woman’s cheek.
Ji Ho tilted his head and looked at the woman instead of the screen.
The image of the woman in his memory was gradually fading, and the face vividly visible in front of his eyes was vividly etched.
The lonely and desolate cello melody that came out through the speaker seemed like background music for the woman.
The woman who lowered her head covered her face with both hands.
Her faintly trembling shoulders seemed to superimpose the image of that day.
Why today again…
Among the pitiful faces struggling with sleepiness in the latter part of the calm movie, the only person crying was Lee Soo.
Ji Ho, who had disliked the crying woman, thought for the first time that a woman’s tears could stimulate a man’s protective instinct.
His gaze, drawn out of the movie, stayed on Lee Soo’s face until the ending credits rolled.
The student ID that he still hadn’t returned was still in his wallet.
After the class was over, Ji Ho hurriedly tidied up his seat and came out, but the woman who had been sitting near the entrance was already gone.
He chuckled at the people flowing out like ebb tides from the lecture room.
He missed her again.
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.]
