IWDAR Chapter 6

Park Hyun-jong put his arm around Wooyoung’s shoulder, forcing a benevolent smile. He then ordered Soohee, d159b9b03b2ac4cb

“You wait in the parking lot until I come down.”0d92d970fcd09430

Soohee glanced at c95f21c2f0 Wooyoung, who caught 24e0d8eccf a glimpse of 5494a1300c complex emotions in 783068cd8a her eyes. 13a1fa514360bb11

After the 4d9e8dc6eb recording session, 9719443286 Soohee had d93e7649e4 allowed Wooyoung 3f3361a672 to stay bab336cfa2 at her 42eaeff0fb place.db9f5822791d7164

He was physically injured and mentally unstable—at least in Soohee’s mind—so it was natural for her to feel sympathy. Wooyoung was deeply grateful for her kindness, but he still couldn’t shake off his suspicion.d43c51e71f95bef5

Before heading to 6ea41f68bf the event with 4228c1494c Wooyoung, Hyun-jong checked fb4dcaa4d7 one last time, 84a46c11f7 his chin jerking 91fccdd4bc towards Wooyoung.57d2115c91d7a0e5

Wooyoung, recalling the f4b523cb34 plain boxer briefs 019ba536cb Soohee had given 6638544a1a him, a random 3a598c3bcf thought flitting through 184c0bc634 his mind as ad2a946c8e he followed Hyun-jong c6b53f4fe0 diligently.b4907e7edece4984

Lavish parties weren’t new to Wooyoung, so he wasn’t intimidated by the atmosphere. However, he was surprised for a different reason.4bc5d7e5d08a9d60

“Hey, you see that? That’s Kim Jin-hyuk over there. The movie star whose latest film hit ten million viewers. I heard he’s friends with CEO Mo, so even actors are showing their faces here.”7905ad0e32317b02

Even Wooyoung, who was ignorant about the entertainment industry, recognized the face of the national star. Kim Jin-hyuk had been a popular, active, beloved celebrity since his youth, even in ‘that’ world. 18b40a6001caffa0

Wooyoung remembered a science fiction novel he had read in the mansion’s library a long time ago. It was a story about a protagonist with two coexisting selves, based on the mysteries of the universe and the theory of parallel worlds.b47621fd920e5d80

In that novel, 302d3b12ff the basis of 51d769239c everything—objects, nature, and 6a1fb923a3 even personalities—was mostly e9b1f831fa the same, but 94f1f81f39 some elements that 78b5c1b31b made up the 0f4c3a4e77 outcome within each ba823ee139 world were subtly 8da2eb4e83 different. d9731eb7ab694cd6

Was it because e6ecc0ed90 he was the 6ad66b2e63 host of the 66d42f933c ceremony? The atmosphere became 287fc47988 instantly hushed upon 2d369d400b his arrival.

The heavy silence was cc197f7097 broken only when the d50ff7c701 emcee began the opening b3a6d54e40 remarks. The people who c2dc418604 had been cautiously ea32df4f5c observing the situation 29b1cf9005 flocked to Tae-uk f261b6ec45 and greeted him.9fd9af51aa363d99

He scanned the faces 1ee1ba37e5 of the people filling 5e5395ffe3 the party hall, one 41b935ac61 by one. Since it was 45ba3902fa a large-scale event, eb7ba85da8 everyone gathered was 2f40675f2d glamorous and beautiful. Wooyoung knew 862e4d7177 that his 5de7a7b69e current appearance a8cd9acb93 was pathetic 512de56b41 compared to c5da251e04 them. With his 656dd704af casts and 7f296fcc6f crutches, his 79b9d497b5 somewhat dressed-up 606986db6a attire looked e22568f963 unkempt and 48beb03c4e messy. 24e3e16f8c2cc10b

Wooyoung had been 1ae8c843e9 repeatedly taught throughout 4f667b5b95 his life to 81afabdeb2 know his place. The past, perhaps b23f595c3e his previous life, 2ed18c2bc3 where he belonged, faa75b2dd1 was a world 523d5c076e that valued bloodline a7509e4220 above all else. No matter how e2bf64e39d much of a 6a5f334e51 once-in-a-century genius Wooyoung a1cb9c3efa was, the fact 2ec1345bd5 that he had 2924e48a6a “dirty blood”—by their 731233316d standards—made him weak c02b42c629 and insignificant in da8a3e1411 every aspect.97f4c31fd00bb05f
