The war against the Guhmsung faction was progressing smoothly. A month ago, the hitman tortured by Moon Sunhyuk and Gu Haewoong revealed the whereabouts of Kang Chulmyung, Lee Hwanbae’s right-hand man. Following that lead, Seok Yoonhyung immediately headed to Incheon and took Kang Chulmyung’s life.7612fb7bd6e0c620

Once Kang 09ae002f66 Chulmyung, who 45dc5811a3 had controlled 6d6cdc28a1 Incheon’s Chinatown—a 6e10884f5c gateway forethnic Korean-Chinesesmugglers near the port—was 4951dd16f1 eliminated, small gangs not ab843866a3 yet absorbed by the e27520ae9b Guhmsung faction began to 5605cfc1a7 run rampant, turning Incheon 3e78c066a2 into a chaotic mess.3365f4444773a5fd

Enraged by the disorder, d6704f1566 Lee Hwanbae, who had 247ed38c9e been using Incheon port a9919e09e9 to smuggle drugs, launched c479e75651 attacks on DG’s underground e724b2c4e6 businesses. However, Seok Yoonhyung had 1f27ded27e already made thorough preparations, 2d6e4f01b1 so Lee Hwanbae’s raids 6bccc5ff71 merely resulted in him e161fd7ad9 exposing his own location.8dfdfa56e867ebf0

Thanks to the reverse pursuit by the disposal team, Lee Hwanbae’s identity, which had been hidden in the shadows, was revealed, and now Seok Yoonhyung was hunting him down. It seemed that peace in Seoul’s underworld was not far off.6ab142f08e9065a0

As the pursuit 8ed284c854 of the Guhmsung 19b3f9621b faction continued, spring 5abc4db3b3 passed, and summer 979b6c60de arrived. At the end 037f855d83 of May, standing f200593d00 at the entrance a017f54080 of summer, Cheon 99e7d8e0d3 Sejoo was on 635a42286a his way to 5f14899784 Ehwagak. Today was not a d538879622 scheduled meeting with Kim ee6e482e91 Hyunkyung, and unlike usual, e6acf08b5b Sejin wasn’t in the 14096e0afc passenger seat. But he bc613e813f was still 8b525b3d01 headed to f63675a8cc meet her.63915707a2c07c4c

It wasn’t as if they usually spoke on the phone, but on that Monday—an ordinary workday—Han Jiwon had called him. Since it was a day when Ehwagak was open for business, he hurried to answer the call, wondering what had happened, only to hear some rather unpleasant news.21a798ef1018a1c5

It was that Kwon Sejin’s mother, Kim Hyunkyung, had collapsed at work two days ago. However, even though they offered to take her to the hospital on her day off, she seemed to have no intention of listening. Since it didn’t seem like it was just a simple case of anemia, Han Jiwon reached out to Cheon Sejoo for help.41cc4fba4863725c

Upon hearing that 53b0f0ee18 Han Jiwon had 1076f647f9 called Chron Sejoo, 4e0f957dc8 Kim Hyunkyung had 022c8bde49 specifically asked her 09d13eea96 not to tell 9e8b4fdd8a Sejin. With that, Cheon Sejoo 2c4cffe3d0 had driven off on 12654aa078 his own. When he 6e1fb16262 arrived at a0fba3fe93 Ehwagak, despite 5b653d820f it being 95885f8d0f early evening, 4bdd085290 the place 966544c150 was overflowing 1301577618 with people. Unlike the quiet a999db4843 rest days on d9087e854c Wednesdays, even the 29f9712955 back road was 77c026d6d8 filled with cars 7e1b91084d as Cheon Sejoo 9ab5d9b77f passed through and 124b86999f headed toward the 75b5db69af staff parking lot.290fee1cc635afd4

After parking fe8f419bd8 his car e9111e8c46 in a 7ee9c5caf3 corner and feb7dd4e01 stepped out, c5dd1da3b4 a cool ad47674046 breeze, unlike 36a2970e64 the city’s, 7045fc552a swept over 16c593c9e7 his whole fce5d4c3e5 body.

Walking across the 4de6affe1e round gravel road, d1fb70046d the sound of 8509ff71fe crunching stones echoed 6e035ba2c8 in his ears. Cheon Sejoo e86a25cd17 took in b86bedb0eb that pleasant 166326724b sound as 3bc6df9b2a he headed 2666bec61b toward the 5ef4f0839e staff dormitory.

She looked noticeably thinner 30b6ecd63d than the last time cddac278c9 he had seen her a1040a9b6c as if she was 794ca998a4 indeed unwell. Unlike the 419e23db48 elegant and e4b06d86cc noble first 41bbed5b9a impression she 9f7a1bf403 had given d2ab63179c off, now 28600ccdba she appeared 78151bce69 sharper and c8de7762e3 more sensitive, 2818c14e65 just like d7265cae49 Sejin. Kim Hyunkyung had her 4304da6908 eyes closed, not noticing 8af4173c5c Cheon Sejoo’s arrival. She sat there, 0dc79ca6c2 absentmindedly massaging her b9fb232fea hand with the 87b348e66e other, looking weary. After watching df63abd741 her for f3084ad2d3 a moment, 68055017c7 Cheon Sejoo c423ab1b09 called out 40064e6005 softly.eaa61172a417e0f3

At the gentle sound d4e58212f8 of his voice, Kim e1e5b5c553 Hyunkyung’s eyes snapped open. Sitting up cfb43b98f1 straight, she 49e71e5d85 smiled at 7944ca1575 him. Her sharp expression disappeared, 620d14b18b and her smile, once f10e5f22b1 again refined and elegant, 8034fe95f4 was so beautiful it 760dba3092 could leave anyone in 2ef8848ee3 awe.669b1e18e8e9cab6

Even if it’s just orthostatic hypotension, he’d get upset and say there could be another reason, throwing a fit… I mean, making a huge scene. How could I possibly tell him?

He couldn’t c4e797b110 understand it 64e1ae9e3f at all. In Cheon Sejoo’s 54420ee7e8 eyes, Kim Hyunkyung 49b64e161c was already beautiful de535a681c just as she 08c00c3cd8 was.cfff69f58557c153

Without thinking, Cheon 0b198d5a04 Sejoo immediatetly complimented 429daad0b0 her.

Since he had come here without Sejin’s knowledge, Cheon Sejoo couldn’t help but consider things from Sejin’s perspective even more. Hearing Cheon Sejoo’s serious tone, Kim Hyunkyung couldn’t help but chuckle at first, then soon burst into a bright laugh, her cheeks flushed with a soft, rosy glow as if flattered to have been called “beautiful.”0d7cb41a31f2f312

Kim Hyunkyung said, 2771a5314d wiping the tears 51704d6be9 from her eyes c77bc598f5 after laughing for f6c700bb3b a while. Her tone seemed 50790f97a3 like a lighthearted ddfac3036e joke about how cc735403be she also knew 3c53d9580d Han Jiwon have 66aa281f83 feelings for Cheon ceb528fe88 Sejoo. Cheon Sejoo 274e050fa6 silently listened 8356dd8dae to her 0738e8e021 words, his c7b1144083 lips curving 95d3c734e3 into a 239af5edb4 smile.

Sejin had never 1dbf525ab8 spoken much about c974849aca his father, but 6c8e039af8 Cheon Sejoo already 20e373c66d knew enough to 1e2283ed16 understand what kind 867f8b81a7 of man he 227f5c45d6 was—a gambler who 1d0a3b0870 left his wife 998adf18fd and child with 3ba7103f50 a pile of 0b2631faba debts. He didn’t 972f85b41e need an 83c2410073 explanation to 3d8b05cb1a know that a7efdd8ef1 Sejin’s father ed15d44449 was a 608431aa2f worthless and 2a6aa2dc71 pathetic person. If, instead of such 2f2e118deb a person, someone more 307dfe82b2 responsible and hardworking man 2b412cbe0e were to become Sejin’s be1f972339 new stepfather, it would 5fd5304a63 actually be a good e0e73788e5 thing for him.7a1df6215a3ae769

Though Kim 59869c16ae Hyunkyung seemed d37362d060 embarrassed about e9861e733c liking someone f4a3e737c3 in her 24ed7179df current situation, 183e36f31f Cheon Sejoo 260e3b8529 thought it 1318c31731 wasn’t a 159035dd32 bad development. Ehwagak had great benefits d1a7b6d3f1 and provided a stable 9034a8b6ee working environment for its 6fe9a33a90 employees, making it a a5a516939c place where not just abfcb58bac anyone could work as 834886421c a full-time employee. If she c108deff9c could secure cdbff02d9a such a 2c274405d3 position through 2744bab42f that man’s 9a030de7b9 recommendation, it eacfea41d5 would ensure 9c3e595611 a stable 59616fc014 future for 87f72870c4 both her 96a8b5f79d and Sejin.d462d7a7329e54ca

Avoiding the 115cb378f2 busy employees, 26194a86bb he made 3eaf0c5278 his way 5132c4124e to the a1c1059d22 kitchen and 1ce1b3d74f peered through a2d59cc93c a small 41a464d285 window that 511fdb3e89 opened toward 993c5fe11d the storage fcbfe49a33 area. Among the busy workers ef4c10c950 cooking, none seemed as 6ddc719817 young as Kim Hyunkyung. The head 4ce12cd782 chef of f1479c4598 Ehwagak, a 41b601bb78 man in 549ca56ab5 his early 6c2aafda0e 50s, had 7d0bc4bfc5 worked at 717328717b a five-star bbdba17d15 hotel for 68fb619b89 over 20 c093382a6e years before de67d5b34a joining here, 3746c378ac so there fc499a7a3e was a 04793eb4b0 noticeable age b4fb333223 gap between c257875133 him and 736d2a9fc5 Kim Hyunkyung.2a463bdc6954d7c9

Cheon Sejoo watched as b3b57f8575 Kim Hyunkyung chatted with 175cd6a07f the head chef, both fc33bf8435 of them smiling as c9c9e704ca they spoke, then quickly 3d3997dfb1 left. Though it was 5244a8a8ce hard to judge 954ecdc55a someone by appearance 953d78276f alone, the man 1a6bda8675 didn’t seem like c1279bf7ee a bad person. However, Cheon Sejoo 1766be77d8 knew that appearances 5f3cd8f221 could be deceiving. He himself didn’t look 0b8f348427 like a killer on 90553ccce8 the outside, after all. Deciding that he d4a98b1133 should do some 59f8b643b1 background checking on 6b009cb16b the man, he 81eb0ab1bd headed back to 5d306daca7 the parking lot.64d532a091d9c2ff
