Impure Wedding Night - Chapter 81
Only Noblemtl
#81. Competitive Mother and Son
2024.03.08.
“Yes, ma’am. Have a good time.”
Because he politely told her to get out, Seo-yoon had no choice but to say goodbye and move to a nearby table.
After sitting down and ordering an iced Americano, Seo-yoon glared at the table where Ye-rin and Mrs. Yoon were sitting from afar.
According to her close friend Su-ji, Mrs. Yoon is a very picky person.
That’s why she doesn’t let her be around much and only a very small number of people she gets along with are close to her.
It was truly shocking to see Ye-rin standing next to Mrs. Yoon like that.
‘How on earth did Han Ye-rin manage to simmer Mrs. Yoon?’
Ye-rin must have acted quickly after hearing that Mrs. Yoon was the real power in the family.
“Anyway, she’s a fox.”
How could she pretend not to know and still be so clever in trying to please Mrs. Yoon?
“Han Ye-rin, are you really doing this to marry Chief Chae-hyun?”
There were more than one or two things that I didn’t understand.
The fact that Mrs. Yoon cared for Yerin enough to give her personal time like this was one thing, and the fact that she gave the bag that she was going to give to her daughter-in-law was an extension of that.
‘This is really ridiculous.’
Was she really going to accept Secretary Naburangi as Ji-seok Electronics’
daughter-in-law? I couldn’t figure out Mrs. Yoon’s true intentions.
Seo-yoon’s attempt to gain some points by targeting Mrs. Yoon instead of Lee Hyun ended miserably.

After Seo-yoon disappeared, Mrs. Yoon gave Yerin a warm smile like sunlight, unlike before.
“It was uncomfortable, right? My family went to a gayageum concert that friend of mine had.”
Yerin had no choice but to confess her relationship with Seo-yoon after Mrs. Yoon explained.
She didn’t want Seo-yoon to misunderstand her by hearing about their relationship through her own mouth.
“Seo-yoon and I were high school friends, ma’am.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Mrs. Yoon listened to Yerin’s story with interest.
“We were close friends, but we didn’t keep in touch much after graduation, so we naturally drifted apart.”
In more detail, Seo-yoon stole my boyfriend and we drifted apart, but I couldn’t say that.
I didn’t want to seem like someone who always talks bad about others.
Mrs. Yoon slowly nodded and opened her mouth.
“Yes, as we live, relationships are sorted out like that. I only need to take the people who stay by my side until the end.”
It was a warm story that was truly like a mother’s words.
As they talked about this and that, Mrs. Yoon and Ye-rin gradually became closer.
Secretary Shin Hye-jin said that Mrs. Yoon was a very strict person, but in her eyes, she wasn’t like that.
“What kind of parents are Ye-rin?”
After asking that question, Mrs. Yoon quickly added,
“I made you misunderstand, didn’t I? I’m not trying to find out who they are, but I’m curious about the person who raised Ye-rin so well.”
“Your father used to run a business, but it didn’t go well.”
“Oh, really? Ye-rin’s family must have had a hard time.”
Mrs. Yoon listened to Yerin’s words with great attention.
“Your mother is sick right now and is receiving treatment at the hospital.”
As she talked, it really wasn’t much compared to Lee Hyun’s family.
However, since it wasn’t something to hide, Yerin just told her honestly.
Mrs. Yoon asked about Yerin’s mother with genuine concern.
“Oh my. It must have been hard taking care of Yerin.”
“She’s recovered a lot now. Lee Hyun helped her a lot.”
“Really? That’s good.”
Thanks to Lee Hyun’s help, Chansook was able to see her often, and her health was recovering quickly.
Chansook’s birthday was coming up soon, so she was thinking about buying a gift and visiting her in the hospital.
Mrs. Yoon spoke.
“Your mother will soon be able to get over it because she has a proper daughter like Yerin. Just seeing her makes her feel so proud.”
Mrs. Yoon’s gaze at Yerin was filled with love.
“I honestly don’t know how grateful I am that Yerin took the time for me today.”
“I’m also really grateful that you invited me, ma’am.”
“That’s good to hear. My friends with daughters often go out for coffee and shopping together, but my sons are blunt, so we’ve never done that.”
Mrs. Yoon shook her head, saying that you have to wish for what you want.
“That’s why today, to me, this time feels like a dream.”
Yerin also felt better because Mrs. Yoon liked her so much.
“We often meet like this, ma’am.”
“I’m always welcome. I don’t know if Lee Hyun would put it that way.”
As she said that, Mrs. Yoon smiled while looking at the VIP lounge entrance.
“They say even a tiger will come if I call it, but our Lee Hyun can’t be a nobleman.”
Yerin slowly turned her head at those words.
Yerin smiled brightly when she saw a handsome man walking toward her from afar, showing off his overwhelming figure.
Lee Hyun sat down next to Yerin and checked the time with his wrist.
“Mom, didn’t you say you were only going to see the fashion show with Han Yerin?”
Lee Hyun emphasized the word “only.
” “If it was a fashion show, it would have already ended a long time ago.”
It was because she was asking why he had another woman.
“I’m sorry, son. I just wanted to have a cup of tea with Yerin.”
Yerin also chimed in.
“The fashion show ended too early. I also came up because I wanted to talk to you a little more.”
Lee Hyun simply grabbed Yerin’s hand as if he was upset.
“Have you thought about me waiting?”
“Yes, of course.”
Lee Hyun could only snicker as he watched Yerin answer without hesitation.
“While watching the fashion show earlier, I kept thinking about you, Lee Hyun.”
The corners of Lee Hyun’s stiff lips slowly relaxed at those words.
“What were you thinking?”
“While looking at the new clothes, you thought that whatever you wore, Lee Hyun would look good on you?”
“Oh, me.”
Even as he said that, Lee Hyun kept smiling as if he didn’t mind.
Lee Hyun got up first.
“Mother, next time, I want you to date Yerin for the amount of time we promised.”
“I’ll try, son.”
Lee Hyun had to put one hand on his forehead as he watched Mrs. Yoon, who was not giving a definite answer that she would do so.
“I think I told you about our relationship for nothing.”
He said this because he thought he would want to meet Yerin more openly and become closer to her.
“Son, are
you going to be upset?” “Then we’ll go now.”
“Okay, go in carefully. Yerin, thanks to you, I had a really happy time today.”
“Me too.”
There was one person chewing on a straw while watching the three people smiling brightly from afar.
Seoyoon, with a vicious expression, still harbored the absurd greed that the seat Yerin was in should have been hers.
***
After leaving the VIP lounge of the department store, Yerin linked her arms with Lee Hyun’s as if she was sorry.
“I didn’t realize it was that long because I was talking to your wife. I’m sorry.”
“No. I warned you that in front of your mother earlier. I thought you’d keep calling out to Han Yerin if I left it alone.”
“But I really enjoyed the time I spent with you.”
“Well, that’s fortunate.”
The two of them walked into the elevator that arrived just in time.
“But isn’t the time you spend with me more enjoyable?”
At that question, Yerin burst into laughter.
“Isn’t that obvious?”
Lee Hyun’s expression softened even more at that answer.
“What do you want to do today?”
“Lee Hyun, do you want to go shopping?”
At that, Lee Hyun tried to take out his cell phone from his jacket pocket.
“I’m thinking of contacting a personal shopper.”
“No! I want to go around and look around myself today.”
“Hmm. Okay. If you get tired, just let me know.”
“I will.”
The two of them held hands and slowly looked around each floor like any other couple.
Then, Yerin stopped in front of a scarf shop and started picking out this and that.
“Is there anyone you want to give a gift to?”
“My mother’s birthday is coming up soon. So I’m thinking of buying a gift.”
“Is that so?”
Lee Hyun also started seriously thinking about a gift next to him.
“I think this color would suit her well.”
Thinking of Chansook from the last time he saw her, he recommended a design that would suit her better, and Yerin’s face lit up.
“Isn’t this nice?”
“I’m glad you like it.”
Even after choosing Chan-sook’s gift, Ye-rin looked at the other scarves with a regretful expression on her face.
“Are you thinking of buying one for Han Ye-rin too?”
“I’m going to choose Mrs. Yoon’s instead of mine.”
Lee Hyun’s eyebrows rose slightly at the mention of taking care of Mrs. Yoon.
“How about this? Do you think she’ll like it?”
Lee Hyun laughed cheerfully at the innocent question.
“I think she’ll like any gift from Yerin Han, even if it’s a paper necklace.”
“Hey, don’t be like that. Think about it seriously. It’s my first gift.”
Lee Hyun thought hard and chose the one Yerin had chosen first.
“Let’s take this.”
“Okay.”
After wrapping two scarves as gifts, Yerin grabbed Lee Hyun’s hand and walked to another store.
It was a place that sold men’s suits.
“Lee Hyun, choose a tie.”
“Is it me this time?”
“Yes. It seems like I always get the gift.”
Lee Hyun hugged Yerin from behind and began to look at the ties on display one by one.
“Lee Hyun, why don’t you put this aside for a bit?”
“I think it’ll help me concentrate better this way.”
Even though she knew it was a ridiculous excuse, Yerin just let Lee Hyun do whatever he wanted.
The warmth coming from behind her was particularly warm, and the woody scent emanating from Lee Hyun made her heart flutter.
“I already have this color.”
Lee Hyun moved slowly, as if he was slowly analyzing the ties in the store.
“This one doesn’t have a good pattern.”
Yerin had no choice but to wrap her arms around his large hands and turn around.
Suddenly, she was trapped between the display case and Lee Hyun’s body.
