AT Ch9
“You're crazy, Choi Baekyoung.” To avoid Jang Heejo’s gaze, which was so blatantly directed at her, she felt like she had to cling to Taekyung somehow. Baekyoung belatedly found a mirror she hadn't looked at in a long time. After pushing back her bangs, she stared at herself in the mirror for a long while. She wondered if there was something there, but she couldn't feel anything from herself. Lying her tired body on the hard mattress, Baekyoung pulled the blanket that Jang Heejo had…-

There's no such thing as a good thing here. So, you had to find something to smile about even in such small acts of kindness. Otherwise, your mood would hit rock bottom in no time, and you would be more likely to fall into bad temptations. After Sooyoung passed away, Baekyoung began to see the world through different eyes. Even a shitty Ant Tunnel like this was still a place where people live. So, there's also kindness exchanged between people. And the kindness contained in the respirator and the…-

AT Ch7
Choi Baekyoung's birth mother was rumored to be Choi Mihyun, a woman Chairman Jang used to keep close in the past. Kim Kwangsoo dredged up Choi Mihyun's face from memories over 20 years old. The moment he thought there was a vague resemblance, Choi Mihyun's face soon morphed into Baekyoung's. However, the truth was unknown to anyone. Choi Baekyoung could be one of Chairman Jang's many illegitimate children, or not. "Ah, right. Here." After finishing his cigarette, Kim Kwangsoo finally threw…-

AT Ch6
“You earn enough to live on, but you’re still greedy. What, are you trying to leave the Ant Tunnel too?” “How can I live if I leave this place? I don’t even have an ID.” “You’re thinking straight. If you’re born in the Ant Tunnel, you should die in the Ant Tunnel. Even if it’s fucked up here, it’s even more fucked up outside.” Baekyoung actually wanted to leave more than anyone, but she calmly hid that desire. Even the cell phone she was currently using was…-

AT Ch5
Despite the somber atmosphere, the sandwich went down smoothly. She needed to eat quickly, gather her strength, and look for work for the day. Just as Taekyung's palm casually landed on the crown of Baekyoung's head, the loosely fitted door swung open. "What's this? Are you two dating?" Jang Heejo asked, his brow furrowed, looking the same as he had when he'd entered her place yesterday. "Yeah. We decided to start seeing each other today." Taekyung affirmed, when Heejo had probably…-

Even without that, it was a windy place by the sea, even on dry days. If she didn't do this, all the rain would leak through the concrete holes, turning the room into a sea of water. This was why Baekyoung, who liked looking at the sea, didn't want to live next to the house where someone had died a few days ago. The closer to the sea, the more miserably it would flood. Since she was already up, she took out the bloated ramen from the microwave, which had no broth left. There was no need to…-

If things had gone wrong, she would have ended up in the same orphanage as them. The young master, oblivious to this, probably bruised Chairman Jang's ego by asking him point-blank if he was handing out alms to beggars. This was the only kind of revenge the kids could take right now. Baekyoung couldn't help but sigh. Even if Chairman Jang could laugh off Jang Heejo's impudence, which he wouldn't trade for the world, seeing this might make him burn down the orphanage. She put her hand in the…-

That time, too, there was a huge commotion. As if there was anything to find in a house the size of your palm, they turned everything upside down all night, and every house on the same 7th floor was thoroughly investigated. Like a possessions check in prison, all the residents had to come out and stand against the hallway walls with their hands behind their backs while Chairman Jang's underlings ransacked their homes. "No." This wasn't the kind of place where neighbors lived together…-

AT Ch13
"I have to go to work this evening." "Work? What work? I already gave you a day's pay." "That's separate. Today I was called to the underground." She couldn't ignore a summons from underground. If she wanted to live, she had to go no matter what. Since she never knew when she'd be called, Baekyoung didn't take other night jobs even if they paid more. Jang Heejo, who knew the workings of the Ant Tunnel better than anyone, looked at her with a knowing expression. She understood the…-

AT Ch12
A child as white as rice cake appeared in his mind. Every time he visited the orphanage with Chairman Jang, there was a gaze that always fixed on him. When he noticed and turned his head, the eyes of the white-faced child would quickly look away. "Really?" "She grew up to be fucking pretty." The word "pretty" slipped out of his mouth unintentionally. His tone was indifferent, without any ulterior motives. "Choi Baekyoung was always pretty." Taekyung replied dryly. There was no…-
