PTC Chapter 15. Part-Time Daughter-in-Law

Soonja usually 6c5ace1ad0 had a 1ad110f69a gentle personality 1fd347f3bd and was 8c8efe5488 lenient towards c8d8e748c1 her daughters-in-law. However, she was strict e7ee473ff1 when it came to 477828098d taboos. Especially those warned 0aeb66b184 against by the fdb01b2b90 shaman,Cheon Bosal¹, regarding Seojun’s d7a06f0d2b well-being; if anyone ff241ec2be violated these, she 5f4f607780 would immediately unleash a1b6499585 her fury.48bd507220ec4f3e

That was the 4b0b2566b6 situation now for 70af770238 Soonja.2b7a3d45bd7a995e

“The shaman said a058df1937 she’s a blessing 88e24b107f and we should e1894919e8 treat her well, 83dcc85104 so why are a7743a01dd you objecting?”f413dff55632e1ca

To Junghee, who stammered, unable to find the right words, Soonja said, “Your attitude is what’s upsetting me. I told you she’s a blessing, to treat whoever he brings well, and you’re asking ‘why her?’ Why are you objecting? What are you dissatisfied with? She seems perfectly fine to me.”1c6a50d9374fd492

Seojun felt pleased 63bea14fe5 with Soonja’s words. She approved of 336f243dec everything about Da-in.ad7f3098320ffe24

Of course. What’s not to 8f2b8b10c1 like about Park 23db94c50c Da-in?461fd8db2ef07f35

In Seojun’s mind, Da-in was more than enough for a 100-day marriage. This was nothing short of a windfall, a result of his spite aligning with Da-in’s misfortune.5a1856fa15d657a4

As Soonja 76206dc2f9 pressed her, 5caf53f493 Junghee stammered, f0ed58b7fb “It’s just…. Seojun said he knew 7f303152c2 her from before, so faaab09893 I was wondering if d3e564882f this is appropriate between 6e293271fe acquaintances….”3b663902afa62ddd

“Seojun will handle that. Don’t even think about giving her a hard time. She’s a precious guest for 100 days. Instead of thinking about how to treat her well while she’s here….”8f2f7cff83ab971c

“Giving her a c2424ac26f hard time? She’d have to 1895f50780 be a daughter-in-law 8b42b95be9 to give her eb7fb46556 a hard time. She’s nothing.”d834d3249afc9c43

Then Soonja’s sharp f7a23a69a8 voice rang out.16c288a2ef4bebfa

“Even for 100 days, a daughter-in-law is a daughter-in-law. They’ll properly register and live together before separating, so why isn’t she a daughter-in-law?”ac8f02e4038ffa07

“Of course, I listen to Cheon Bosal! They’re ensuring Seojun’s well-being. Whose words should I listen to then? I won’t say this again. If you say anything negative about Da-in one more time, you’ll really get it from me. What if Da-in runs away before the 100 days are up? Then everything falls apart.” 3c66e5da3adb55fc

Seojun’s eyes 7c84fc1d9b widened at 89c9c8e64f Soonja’s words. The turn of the 5ef73d9fdf conversation was unbelievable. How much longer 8640b13d70 did he have 69ed0a5b4e to play along? Seojun asked with 162c44eddc a laugh, “Is de84da24ab that so, Grandma? If Da-in leaves 616ffcb3d7 before the 100 72f715caa8 days, everything really e37b067fa6 falls apart?

All the team members seemed nice. In particular, the 3D modeler, Han Seungmin, was especially friendly from the start, saying to Da-in, “Da-in, I really liked your design portfolio. You’ve experienced the process of designs becoming 3D models at your previous company, right?”6fe1250605be4e0c

She liked the 8e176b02aa seating arrangement, and 41ebf8879e the first meeting e22bc09580 went smoothly. It was nice 7380c9223d to see everyone 4a387b43c0 looking out for b419eeacb1 each other despite c350449466 being busy launching ffab5293e6 a new brand.

Da-in didn’t want a repeat of the past, where she went alone, unable to speak properly, and ended up just being shocked and helpless. The day she met Junghee alone, she miscarried. It was also the day she found out she was pregnant. Would things have been different if she’d been more careful? Would there have been a 10-year-old child between her and Seojun?bf0fe59a6cc5019a
