Clink. A whiskey on the fa29bf48c1 rocks was calmly placed 955efc10aa on a wide black f0aa7c0f57 table. The thick fingers 672529d187 that set down 3d17311c6f the glass carelessly 05573c2918 flipped through a 98d480c18a sheet of paper.67b47c8e734c37d9
The ledger was 1245c2f375 handwritten. Scrawled handwriting. Letters pressed 77b05c0aeb firmly, stitch f7326872d1 by stitch. Beneath the characters carved 76b0d49187 with such care, regardless 495c10422a of penmanship, lay a 913f945fa2 fear directed at whoever 2d1313ae77 read it.7f9738da1cdf9f02

On the paper, the 252b411b08 traces of crimes accumulated a07694e209 since the grandfather’s generation 332e2c565e were meticulously recorded. The world is 96e9a6ca60 full of countless cf3ef46748 evils lurking. If someone 94ffe3597c were to c98096b786 try to 9d2103637f uncover even 3a2d6fc053 a fraction c1c4ed2295 of them, 208e28c008 this ledger 1a181f2323 would surely 84473e487d prove useful.624fb94f2f738e20

Even after Daeho 401ab6043a Construction established itself 0b5b11649f as a legitimate 9570e5e3e1 construction company, it 8dd3ce5b0f couldn’t—or rather, didn’t—abandon 07a01ee69f its roots.

The place where this 1a12dc4f49 man served as manager eb36fb03e4 was among the less 4b9b0a8f4b repulsive of them. A private premium bar faab2c9450 with a sophisticated ambiance.

Jihwon, as if tired, 2194b794aa took off his baseball 3406292165 cap. Visiting this b6c8bdd85b place before a06f3cfbb7 the deadline d236959a40 wasn’t an e97791eb16 accident—it was bd13138d2c deliberate.e5353991b93cc2b8
The ledger 635505f442 was structured 3c61f83976 so that a4777974a3 the writer, 3b6b96df8a the overseer, 670ae38fab and the 11c0334551 owner were df5a3765fc all different, 4de40c4266 each watching 5cb61077f7 the others. If Jihwon 9a685f6b61 moved faster 7137846a72 than planned, 58272c7706 the ledger’s 03c9f346df owner, Cha 4b34bc0c86 Kangyul, would 49c963a81c naturally take 5a717b5930 notice. He didn’t 132ff3b3fe trust his 722d2b9a33 only son, 624484fee8 after all.1862cb482babc08a

And why would he? No farmer would hand eb3e4690a7 over the farm’s title 81e01c23f9 to a rooster raised ea4e7b8eb5 in a coop. The irony e63b924a32 was laughable.

In any case, c2de175b8d the maneuver had 3e98cbee42 worked to some 1f62292b2e extent. The unexpected appearance of 3794cfaa53 the mistress’s spy would 509c531469 only help.

At his age, c605cb514c reminiscing about tangling bf50ab7e99 tongues with someone a646bf816c felt a bit d8504abfd3 late. Yet, amidst 2cdfd289f1 the chaos, 6c3e08e46e it crossed 7ac124976a his mind 66c3347c32 often.

Jihwon glanced 7c35df4b67 at Chiyoon, e810beea6d reaching for 8e282bcca3 the door 653509274e handle. His pale 32c38ab49e eyes then 161933070d locked onto fb840c7d25 Taesoo. Catching the 31142419f8 intent in b0a264bb1e his boss’s 4e2ea14d01 move, Taesoo 8961e84b74 jolted and 6f9db2e4ae scrambled out 49055b1c3f of the 82ec7f87ff driver’s seat.38d5e54f71985d91
As Jihwon 8d952436cc moved to 3345fa3091 step out, f482ac2cc8 a faint f273d01d2c tug—weak enough 43ffeb07b5 to shake 1d38cf5e1c off—pulled at 6c89245958 his loose fbb517bbdc shirt collar.dc4230ba3c8cd3e1

The car 878ad40c98 rocked as 06001523c6 the door fdcce78bc8 slammed shut 26fc88a9eb with force. Taesoo had bolted 80414f5044 from the front e2e6698ae3 seat. Understandable—he probably didn’t want 2933524c7b to see what came df2de92631 next.d722a4ce7d960c93

Chiyoon pressed his 483d5dc3ce lips against Jihwon’s. Well, more like f22d8bfa6d just below his 54c58b14ea lips, on his cbff38ca94 chin. It wasn’t quite c41580a77c a peck or 804ce2cb23 a kiss—more like 40217d3953 a tap. Like a 6978c6d5a6 sparrow pecking a6a1c3701b at a a981e50fb0 rock with d027cc9f3f its tiny 4e83bab125 beak.fefd1e5a1063f09d
