His Mischievous Time-Traveler: How To Capture A Celebrity Husband?

Chapter 122: It's lust at first sight

Downstairs, Kyuri's mother wonders what is going on up there. She frowns once. She can't hear any noise. In the end, she lets the kids take care of their problems and decides to concentrate on the dinner. Ki Hoon will be coming soon from work. It looks like Kang Si An will be staying.

Young Hwa shakes his head and smiles at her. "Have I told you that you think too much?"

"Not yet." She raises her chin and looks at the light bulb. She might have said too much. She is embarrassed under his gaze. When it comes to Young Hwa, she always feels like she has a disadvantage.

"Finally, you are acting like a married woman" He grabs her chin and makes her meet his eyes. "If I tell you that I fell for you the moment I saw you, would you believe me?"

"Love at first sight doesn't exist," She replies firmly. "It's lust at first sight."

There's only one kind of her in this world. Yeon Seo or any woman can't match her. "We will go along with your version then. It's lust at first sight. My heart reacted to you and signaled that I have a ton of lustful feelings for the woman I have just met. Is that okay?"

Anger flashes in her eyes, but she's also blushing. Young Hwa laughs and decides to become honest with her. "Do you know what I was planning on doing when Little Hae found me?"

She pouts and asks, "What were you gonna do?"

"I was thinking about drowning in the sea," He tells her with a smile and a tinge of sadness in his eyes. She gasps in shock. He covers her mouth before she can say a word. He continues, "I was tired. I didn't think that I could live without Yeon Seo anymore. I was going to make a stupid decision. I didn't think of my parents or my friends who care about me. I only cared about what I was going through. So, I was thinking of doing it after it got dark. Then, she came and called me Daddy. I was stunned, but I thought that I want to have a daughter whose eyes lit up like her when she called me Daddy."

He will never forget that day. He received a second life. "Then, you came running toward us. I saw how the rays of sunlight from the setting sun played with the light in your eyes. My heart skipped a beat. For the first time, I realized that I was capable of living again. You and your daughter became my light that day."

Kyuri has forgotten to blink.

"Yeon Seo might affect me. She was a part of my past. She was my first love. That must be the reason why she affects me so hard even after long years. However, she's my past." He lets out a tired sigh. "She can never become you who came to my life like a paramedic in the last moment and electrocuted my heart awake. You, Kyuri, you are the one I love. Because of you and Little Hae, I am alive. Because of you and her, I still look forward to the next day of my life. All I can think of is how I want to make both of you smile every day."

Her heart skips a beat for the first time after a long time.

"After hearing your story, I couldn't believe you. A part of me trusted reason. Another part of me didn't want to accept that you have been in so much pain. Despite everything that happened to you, you still survived that darkness without anyone's help and you are still standing strong. Do you know how much I admire you? You and Little Hae don't need me. I need you both. I am sure that I want to be with you and her. I want to become part of your life."

They stare at each other in silence after he finishes talking. He removes his palm and rubs away the mistiness from his eyes. He waits for her to say something. Kyuri slaps her chest a few times to calm her rapidly beating heart. She's touched. After Li Jun, she's touched by words for the first time in the thousand years.

She clears her throat. "Sorry for misunderstanding you."

"Apology accepted." He puts his hands in his pockets, looking smug. "Did your heart move a bit?"

"Maybe." She doesn't want to admit yet. She doesn't meet his eyes.

He chuckles. She can't hide emotions right now. "Then, is it okay to pre-pone the wedding?"

"It's already 9 days after a few hours." She shakes her head slowly. "A rushed wedding won't be good. It's also Little Hae's first time seeing a wedding... So..."

"I understand, my wife." He lifts her in his arms. "It's time to exercise husband privileges before my father in law and brother in law come back."

"Young Hwa..." Kyuri tries to protest. "We are still at my parents' home."

"Keep your voice low." Young Hwa is already taking him to her bedroom. "Little Hae is sleeping."

Kang Si An hears the voices become fainter as they move away from the door. He agrees with each word of Young Hwa. Kyuri is special. She's the only one in this world who can still stand strong after what happened to her. He wishes that he had the power to change the past as Kyuri did. He would have made every wrong turn into right. It's too late regret for the things he could control over and the things he couldn't control.
