Namgoonghyuk naturally placed his hand on Eunyul’s shoulder. The moment the conversation naturally ended with Eun-yul’s story, I was intoxicated with the feeling that I had won and grinned.
On the contrary, Kang Ha-jun’s expression became even colder, and he approached Namgoong-hyuk’s hand, which was placed on Eun-yul’s shoulder.
Namgung-hyuk saw his hand floating in the air and looked at Eun-yul and Kang Ha-jun alternately. Why is Kang Ha-jun here? Namgoonghyuk bent his hand and scratched his temple. And I tilted my head towards Eunyul, the person who would inform me of this situation.
“What does this mean?”
I meant to ask you to explain.
However, as Eun-yul just stood there silently, Namgoong-hyuk tilted his head to look at Kang Ha-jun.
“Are you going to follow him?”
Namgoonghyuk began as if he was trying to teach something rather than asking a question.
“do not do that. And don’t go to Suni’s Haejangguk. I like you so much that I want to keep following you around. Wouldn’t that be annoying? huh?”
Namgoong Hyuk said something very tick-like, saying that no one could explain it so kindly.
“I will take care of you with the utmost care, so don’t worry. Should we also talk about debt? Since you have to pay with your body anyway, if you adjust your working hours… … .”
Eun-yul, who had been quiet until now, turned around and stood in front of Kang Ha-jun.
Kang Ha-jun couldn’t hide his bewildered expression when Eun-yul, who he thought would ignore him until the end, approached him.
I thought he might have been forcibly taken away from Namgoonghyuk, so I ran towards him and surprised him. And she had no reason to catch him going… … .
“They say the sky is sleepy.”
It happened.
Kang Ha-jun’s face brightened as he understood Eun-yul’s words.
* * *
“Don’t misunderstand. “I’m following along because this is the only way to get rid of Namgoong Hyuk, there’s no other reason.”
“I won’t think about anything else.”
Even with Kang Ha-jun’s obedient answer, Eun-yul’s crumpled face did not seem to improve. Even if she hadn’t met Namgung-hyuk earlier, she would have gone to Soon-in’s hangover soup.
However, I couldn’t get Namgoonghyuk to follow me whenever I went to see my grandmother. Last time, Rep. Han Cheol-seung was there and he returned, but I couldn’t hope for that to happen this time either.
Besides, if I went to that Korean restaurant, I wouldn’t be able to work at Suni’s Haejangguk, so in many ways, it was better to reach out to Kang Ha-jun. Apart from the feeling of sinking into the abyss… … .
Eunyul sat in the backseat, offering Haneul her leg as a pillow, and looked out the window.
“Are you going to that house?”
“hmm… … “If I’m uncomfortable, it’s okay for the two of us to stay alone.”
Kang Ha-jun said while making eye contact with Eun-yul through the rearview mirror. Ever since Eun-yul shouted earlier, Kang Ha-jun has been acting like a person with a screw-up.
Very gentle and fierce… … . Do you think that won’t show the hidden claws?
“When did you know?”
“Are you Seong Eun-yul?”
Eun-yul did not answer separately, but Kang Ha-jun found the answer and thought about it.
“When I ate ramen.”
“I see you knew.”
“huh.”
“But why didn’t you tell me?”
“I originally went to talk, but when I actually met him, I thought differently.”
Kang Ha-jun remembered that time and smiled. Eunyul frowned, feeling offended, and her smile quickly disappeared.
“You recognized me too, but you didn’t pretend to know me.”
“So you did the same thing? “Do you think that’s the same as pretending I don’t know?”
“Of course it’s different. But I didn’t know why you were hiding it, so I chose to watch rather than reveal it. And you didn’t avoid me because you thought I didn’t know.”
“That must have been fun.”
“It’s a shame I didn’t realize it sooner. It wasn’t that funny.”
“So you’re saying it wasn’t fun?”
Kang Ha-jun, who couldn’t lie, focused on driving again. Eunyul snorted, saying he knew that would happen.
“What about the sky?”
“When did you find out? I knew that as soon as I saw it… … .”
Eunyul looked away again. My question just now was useless.
“I’ll just stay for a while. In the meantime, fix the door. and… … .”
Please protect me from Namgoong Hyuk for a moment.
As Eun-yul was muttering something she couldn’t bear to say, Kang Ha-jun looked at her through the rearview mirror. Eunyul seemed to be paying attention to me even though she should be concentrating on driving, so she just said something random.
“I think I need to stop by somewhere along the way because I need something.”
* * *
When Kang Ha-jun opened the door and moved to the side, Eun-yul went in holding Ha-neul. He was distracted by the wide entrance, then took off his shoes and entered the hallway. It was amazing that there was a hallway in the house, and since there were cabinets and doors on the left and right, it naturally became a passage.
After passing through the hallway, Eunyul stopped at the sight that was revealed, holding Haneul in her arms.
It was spacious. Judging by the presence of a sofa, it appears to be a living room, but the boundaries were not clear. Each home appliance and furniture was placed in an appropriate location and organized to allow access to other areas.
Eunyul wiggled her toes and looked at the floor. Since I knew Kang Ha-jun was rich, I thought his house would be a dreary space with marble floors, black furniture, and almost nothing except the necessities.
However, the floor was covered with a mat so it seemed like Haneul wouldn’t get seriously hurt if she fell, and it was decorated in pastel colors to create a warm atmosphere.
“You like this kind of house. “Usually, adults who live alone don’t usually put down mats.”
Kang Ha-jun, who was standing still as Eun-yul spoke while looking around, belatedly realized what she meant and waved his hand.
“no.”
“sure?”
As Eun-yul turned around and made eye contact, Kang Ha-jun opened his mouth to speak honestly and then closed it. I hesitated whether I could say that I had planned it like this to bring the two back. He did it because he wondered what would happen if Eunyul left because he felt burdened.
It was still difficult to show him my true feelings. I didn’t want to be out of sight of Eunyul now that everything I had tried to approach slowly had gone awry.
“I guess I’ve changed a lot.”
Eun-yul, who was looking at Kang Ha-jun, turned around.
“In the past, Seong Eun-yul received all the explicit hostility from Kang Ha-jun, but now she acts as if she has forgotten about it.”
Before being possessed, Seong Eun-yul behaved viciously and she treated him coldly. I think Kang Ha-jun was also picky when he didn’t know I was Seong Eun-yul… … .
“So you don’t have to be pretentious. At a glance, the interior is designed to suit Haneul… … .”
“Here, I’ll give it to you.”
“… … “I told you not to be pretentious. Who will take care of the house?”
Eunyul looked at someone strange and turned around. I really hate it. This is a person I hate from beginning to end. Eunyul was grumbling and went to the sofa and put Haneul down. The sofa itself was wide and low, so it wouldn’t hurt anyone if it rolled over, but Eun-yul put the cushion on the floor and stood up, extending her hand to Kang Ha-jun.
As Kang Ha-jun looked at his hand in silence, Eun-yul waved his hand as if he was frustrated.
“Please give me what I bought.”
“here.”
Then I remembered what I said earlier about there being something I needed. He got out of the car and handed out what he had purchased, and Eunyul walked around the house holding it. In the bathroom, I installed a faucet extension tap, put the pumped toothpaste aside, and attached a small mirror for Haneul to see.
A towel rack was placed low, and a separate basket was placed underneath in what appeared to be a laundry room after leaving the bathroom.
Even though Kang Ha-jun designed the interior to suit Ha-neul, Eun-yul was still busy walking around, as if something was missing.
“I think I’ve done everything… … .”
Eunyul gathered the empty shells to one side and looked around the house. And she smiled as if she was satisfied and stood in front of Kang Ha-jun.
“We have something to talk about, right?”
The most important thing remains.
* * *
Eunyul, who was sitting in front of the table, saw Haneul sleeping on the sofa. I wanted to put her on the bed in her room, but I didn’t move her because I thought she would be in an unfamiliar place when she woke up.
After the conversation with Kang Ha-jun, I could sleep together, so I decided to move on and Eun-yul turned around.
“Five years ago… … “Do you have any debt left?”
Kang Ha-jun shook his head.
“But why do I have debt I didn’t know about? When I looked into it, I heard there were legal problems, did you understand?”
It’s not like I didn’t recognize Eunyul. I asked an old lawyer who came to the restaurant, and he said that the bond could disappear without Namgoong Hyuk talking about 10 years or 5 years.
However, when Namgoonghyuk came to visit, he was willing to repay the debt. Because I’m a fanboy? No, he did it because he knew how Namgoong Hyuk would come out and did not think it would be resolved only legally.
Before I became Seong Eun-yul, Seong Eun-yul in the original story got beaten up a lot when everything was stolen by Namgung-hyuk. He doesn’t hesitate to use violence, so how can something legal like that work?
Kang Ha-jun’s expression turned cold at Eun-yul’s words and then returned. Now that she knew exactly why Namgung-hyuk came, it seemed like she had no intention of letting him be around Eun-yul.
No matter what Kang Ha-jun thinks, Eun-yul made an important request that he must listen to.
“Please don’t let me lay a finger on Haneul.”
This was the most important.
As we saw earlier, it was decided that Haneul would not be in danger if Kang Ha-jun was there. Eunyul continued speaking without hearing his answer.
“I won’t ask you why you didn’t get married. I don’t want to get caught up in that, so please sort that out too. And I’m going to commute to Suni’s Haejangguk.”
I didn’t mean to break up with Hyun Je-ha. I was just asking that there be no problem with my stay for a while.
Kang Ha-jun, who listened intently to everything Eun-yul said, did not seem to have any doubts.
“You said you would give me this house, right? You don’t have to give it to me, so I’ll just borrow it for a few days. “That’s all I have to say. Do you have anything to say about that?”
There are a lot of details, but Eunyul has condensed them into just a few points. Since I only said what I asked for, I thought I would get up as soon as I heard Kang Ha-jun’s answer.
“3 months.”
Suddenly, Eunyul blinked at Kang Ha-jun’s words and looked at him.
“Please stay in this house for three months. And let me stay here too. Then I will listen to everything you just said. I can take care of your debt and resolve all your concerns. I won’t even say that heaven will take me later. If you want, take care to make it legally effective.”
When he told her everything he could do under the condition of three months, Eun-yul silently moved her lips.
“I will do whatever you want, just give me three months.”
Eun-yul suppressed the urge to sigh at Kang Ha-jun’s unwavering, stubborn eyes and firm expression.
Pure? Blind? It was all my mistake. It was no different from a wild animal that had just crouched down to hunt.
He bent down and as soon as the opportunity presented itself, he leapt and asked exactly where he wanted to be.
It wasn’t something to waste time thinking about.
