Chapter 59 Testing Each Other with Exes
Sana Minatosaki caught up with Jung Do-hoon in front of the elevator. She clutched the hem of her skirt and pressed herself close to him.
"I'll see you off..."
Jeong Do-hoon's expression had returned to calm:
"Thank you, I'll stop here."
He must have felt that what he said was too outrageous, and that he felt he was just brushing him off, right? Well…
Who would believe in precognitive dreams, a plot that only appears in movies and comics?
But she wasn't lying...
The questions he asked filled Sana Minatozaki herself with doubt.
Why did she know how to make hangover soup? Why did she know how to massage Jung Do-hoon's stomach? Why did she instinctively know that he was left-handed?
Sana Minato lowered her head, struggling with what to do, but the moment the elevator doors opened, all her thoughts collapsed. She instinctively followed and grabbed Jung Do-hoon's wrist.
The atmosphere in the elevator was so quiet that it made one feel suffocated.
Seeing that Minatozaki Sana was about to cry, Jung Do-hoon sighed softly. This scene was very similar to the scene after the two of them had quarreled in their previous life.
He gently pulled his hand away from Sana Minatozaki's and pressed the button for the first floor:
"There's no need to see me off anymore, you can go back now."
Sana Minato could sense that although Jung Do-hoon's tone had softened somewhat, it was still cold, as if he were scrutinizing her. She dared not relax for a moment and remained tense all over.
After taking a deep breath, she dared to raise her eyes to look at him:
"I'm really not lying, I've been having some really strange dreams lately..."
Zheng Daoxun narrowed his eyes, his previously softened expression turning cold again.
As a fellow reborn individual, Jung Do-hoon could, to some extent, understand Minatozaki Sana's choice to draw a clear line and cease all contact.
After all, the two had been in a long-term relationship in their previous life, but it ultimately ended without a trace.
He was already the Consul General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in his early thirties. His status and position meant that if he wanted to start a new relationship, countless matchmakers and intermediaries would rush to introduce him to all sorts of well-bred young ladies.
But Sana Minatosaki is different. Idols are young people who rely on their youth. By their thirties, they are already in the twilight of their careers, making it really difficult to find a boyfriend who matches them in every way.
Therefore, he could understand Sana Minatozaki's reluctance to repeat the same mistakes, but...
When Sana Minato admitted to her that she was reborn, wasn't she essentially questioning Jung Do-hoon about why he chose to be with her when he knew how difficult it was for a diplomat to marry a foreigner? Did she feel that Jung Do-hoon wasn't taking responsibility for the relationship and was wasting her youth?
Zheng Daoxun felt that all his efforts over the years had been trampled underfoot and rendered worthless.
Such conflicts occurred more than once after the marriage application was rejected, but even so, Sana Minato never felt that all those years of feelings had gone to waste.
Perhaps if one were to live a second life, one's attitude and stance toward a matter would change.
He just looked at Minatozaki Sana calmly, as if she were a stranger.
Sana Minatozaki would rather he be angry or even furious because of her answer than face such cold emotions. Her heartstrings seemed to be tugged by his eyes, which were as calm as a river in winter, and even her breathing became cautious.
Was it fear? She thought, perhaps she was more worried that Jung Do-hoon would leave with such emotions, and that misunderstandings would take root between them.
"I know that if I told anyone this, they would think it was a complete fantasy..."
The elevator stopped on the seventh floor, the doors opened, and a stranger walked in, looking down at his phone.
Before Jung Do-hoon could react, Minatozaki Sana pressed her cheek against his chest and wrapped her arms around his waist.
He looked down at the woman whose eyes were already red, and ultimately couldn't bear to push her away.
Sana Minato's disheveled appearance made Jung Do-hoon's stance on what he had said to her soften slightly.
At the very least, a breakup should be dignified.
Jung Do-hoon gently put his arm around her back, shielding Minatozaki Sana from the gaze of the person next to her.
The elevator finally stopped on the first floor and opened. After the person had walked out, Zheng Daoxun released his hand and gently pressed the open button.
"We've arrived at the first floor," Zheng Daoxun reminded her again. Minatozaki Sana then pulled away and followed him step by step to the apartment entrance.
"The explanation of precognitive dreams is indeed hard to accept. However, I believe you have no grounds or reason to lie to me, so I'll just take it as an interesting anecdote."
Jung Do-hoon decided to keep the matter of his rebirth a secret, as it would be better for both of them. Let's stop here and not get entangled any further.
He went to the roadside and waited for the next taxi to arrive.
Sana Minatozaki, however, still seemed unable to let go of the matter, clinging tightly to his side in her slippers.
What does she really want?
"I know you won't believe such an outrageous claim right now, but... can you give me some time? I'll find the evidence eventually."
"Prove what?" Jung Do-hoon really couldn't figure out what Minatozaki Sana was thinking.
"Proof... that everything in my dream was real, proof..."
Sana Minato took a deep breath. Since the conversation had already come to this point, what harm was there in being a little more absurd?
"To prove that we were together for a long time."
"And then?" Jung Do-hoon felt exhausted. In Minatozaki Sana's perspective, he was just a 25-year-old young man with no so-called "bonds from a past life".
So what's the point of her proving that the two were lovers in a past life?
One day, someone suddenly appears in front of you, producing a huge pile of evidence to prove that you were lovers in another time and space. Would you then be with her?
"Then……"
Sana Minatozaki blinked blankly. Yeah, and then what?
After proving that the person in her dream was indeed Jung Do-hoon, what would she do next? She seemed never to have thought about it.
Or perhaps they are afraid to face the problem.
"Since it's just something vague and unreal in a dream, let's not dwell on it anymore." Jung Do-hoon forced a smile. "Besides, we've already broken up, haven't we? In a dream. Let's make the breakup as dignified as possible."
The taxi arrived, and Zheng Daoxun opened the door and got in.
Sana Minatozaki looked at him in a daze. Seeing that the taxi had already started moving slowly, she wanted to chase after it. She reached out and grabbed the car door, but almost stumbled and fell.
The taxi stopped, and Jung Do-hoon opened the door, his hands on Minatozaki Sana's shoulders with a mixture of worry and helplessness:
"Don't do such a dangerous thing."
"I want to prove that we were once in love, to prove that the questions you asked were just habits formed over the years, and then... I want your real answer."
"What's the answer?"
Sana Minatozaki raised her eyes, staring intently at Jung Do-hoon, and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes:
"Your explanation doesn't satisfy me. I don't believe in such coincidences. I want to know why you came to find me. Are you... still not over it?"
