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

She visits him less frequently. He is busy with the shoots. He doesn't pay her much attention. She always seems lost in thoughts whenever she is with him. Sometimes, she would appear with cuts and bruises. She is always coming back in strange clothes. She must like wearing ancient clothes.

Whenever Kang Si An calls her home, she is too busy to talk to him. He wonders why he keeps calling her whenever she is gone for several days or weeks. He is suspicious. Is she going to Li Jun? After the end of the third month of their contract, he decides to visit her home.

Her mother is surprised to see him. Kang Si An guesses immediately. She isn't at home. She has never been home all this time.

After four days, she appears again. She is wearing a long overcoat that belongs to a man. She gives him a hug. He can smell the scent of blood and forest on her.

"Where have you been?" He asks her, doing his best to hide his anger.

"I went home." She stretches her arms. "How have you been, Kang Si An?"

He wants to tell her that he knows. But, what's his right? If she wants to see someone else, he can't stop her using a contract. She's a fake girlfriend. Right now, she is acting like one.

"Let's make this real." He steps closer to her. "I like you. You don't have to wander to anyone else. Choose me."

Before she can answer him, he pushes her against the wall. Her voice is quietened by his deep kiss. He's done after three months of fighting his feelings. The scent of another man is still lingering on her body. He drags her to the bathroom and turns on the cold shower. She flinches when he takes off her clothes coercively.

"You are my real girlfriend now." He washes her body in the bathtub. "Don't see any other man. I won't tolerate it."

She looks at him with complaints. "Not the same."

"What did you say?" He enters the bathtub. "Trying to seduce me for a long time and going to another man because I wouldn't touch you? Kwon Kyuri, I will grant your wish today."

Unlike the last time, Kang Si An doesn't back out of his words.

"I realize that I stay with you longer now."

There are only five people who survived until now. General Yu is ahead of them with the fifth prince. They are arguing as they are climbing the hill. The fifth person, the fifth prince's only living shadow guard, is following them from a respectable distance away. Li Jun grabs Kyuri's hand to help her climb with him. During the last eight months of their arduous journey, she has disappeared and reappeared many times. She didn't stay away for long these times. The prince doesn't ask any question. General Yu also keeps quiet. The guard knows what not to say.

She's just a girl, but she rarely complains about the difficulties they face during the journey. She has lost weight too. General Yu is the same. Both women, from the same family, are strong.

He doesn't mind if she abandons his future reincarnation and stays with him. He wants to start a family with Kyuri after he goes back to the capital. If the sacred treasure can help her, he will ask her to stay with him forever. If she doesn't choose him, he will still live his days with her memories. In his next life, he knows that he will meet her.

"Why do you keep leaving without telling me?" Kang Si An throws the food on the ground. "You don't even carry a phone. Where do you go to? Are you still seeing that man?"

This time, she was gone for two weeks. She returns paler and thinner. He is afraid that the other man is doing something wrong to her. He tried to find about her in other ways, but there is no clue.

"It will be over soon," She tells him with a tired voice. "We are close."

"You are closer to him?" He clenches his jaw. "Why do you look unhappier every time you come back to me? You love him that much that you can't see what's he is doing to you."

She doesn't answer him. Instead, she begins to clean the floor. The pieces of porcelain plate cut her finger. He feels horrible to see her expressionless face. She won't tell him. He has had enough of this. He tends to her wound.

"When the contract is over, let's break up."

"Fine," She replies with a monotonous voice.

He presses his lips together. It's so easy for her to say that. She loves that man more than him. Then, all the times when he loved her were meaningless to her? Did she never believe him once? She's choosing Li Jun over him.

He won't let her go away from him.

"Is this it?" General Yu exclaims in happiness. She clears away the moss from the wall. "The symbol of timekeeper... Kyuri, we have reached."

Kyuri sits down on the ground. "I thought that this mountain ended in heaven."

"If we find the crystal, you should take it." Kwon Yoori whispers to her. "My ability will come back on its own in a few months. I can feel it. You should gain control and change your future."

Li Jun and Wu Yixing are looking at the map. They can clearly hear the whispers between these two women because of their sharp hearing. Of course, women have no idea. Wu Yixing has already guessed that Kwon Yoori is from the future. He still has some months. After returning from this godforsaken place, he is going to do a full attack on his woman. Li Jun is just happy that his wife will be able to solve her problem.

"Master, I will go inside first." The shadow guard volunteers himself. "Please wait."

"If it is dangerous, come back."
