Chapter 226 – Episode 226

Hanban Group’s residence. Private garden.

To be exact, it is the garden of Han Se-ho, Han Se-ryong’s first son and currently serving as the vice president of Hanban Group.

Han Se-ryong came in there, clicking his tongue.

“Tsk tsk, that’s too much fuss. The fuss is too much. “You don’t want that yourself, so why are you making such a fuss?”

「Rooling」

Han Se-ho, who was watering the flowers delicately and carefully, glanced, turned his head and answered.

“It’s not bad at all. Father. They say that you reap what you sow. If the vice president of Hanban Group doesn’t like something, he gets rid of it alone in a quiet place. Anyone can see that a worse person than me is swearing at my daughter like that. “How can I bear it?”

“Okay. If there was something you didn’t like, he would hide alone in a place like this and get away. “What a pathetic bastard.”

If it had been Han Se-ryong in the past, he would have kicked away the flower pot that Han Se-ho had grown so precious.

It didn’t happen now.

However, I didn’t hold back or say anything. Because it’s Han Se-ryong.

“I find that even more absurd. As you said, you are the vice president of Hanban Group. Vice-chairman! Why?! Why?! Is it because this father is still in the chairman position?”

“…”

“Why on earth are you holding back everything you want to say about how ugly you are? Uh?! If you have something to say, say it confidently! “It’s our family that swears openly, even in front of reporters, if we have to!”

Han Se-ho sighed and laughed.

“Because I grew up under a father like that. “Someone like me came out.”

“What?”

“Always strict. Because he taught me to always look forward and always look up. I actually became a person who looked down more, as if I was rebelling.”

“Han Se-ho!”

“I am!”

Han Se-ho clenched his fists and shouted.
Still, he couldn’t hide his trembling. To Han Se-ho, Han Se-ryong was still a scarier person than the monster in his dreams.

“I know. I can’t be as smart as my father! Like my father, I can’t make a single decision! I am not the kind of person who tries to rise above any means necessary. “I know better than anyone else.”

Looking at Han Se-ho’s chest moving up and down violently.

Han Se-ryong quietly kept his mouth shut.

“Well, I always feel sorry to my father. I was dissatisfied again. I was born into a family that others envied, so I wondered why it had to be so difficult. “I can’t even breathe while watching my father every day!”

“…”

“When I was young, my friend… No. Do you know how many times, hundreds of times, whenever my classmates looked at me and said that they wanted to be born as me, I willingly held back from saying that I wanted to change as much as I wanted? If it weren’t for the humans my father personally assigned to me for the purpose of surveillance and security! “Do you know how many times I imagined falling off the school roof?”

Han Se-ho, who was taking deep breaths several times in succession, quietly put down the watering can while showing tears again.

Han Se-ryong tsk, clicked his tongue.

“Why does this guy cry so much?”

“But. “Father.”

“Okay.”

“I’ve been regretting it lately. They say that humans are animals and cannot avoid regretting the past. Even though I know that, I still regret it.”

“Why do you attach so much meaning to the past? “I’m too busy looking ahead and living to death.”

“I should have been like my father.”

“What?”

Looking at Han Se-ryong opening his eyes wide.

Han Se-ho wiped away tears.

“Even if it takes a little effort. Even if you have to force it. “If I had become like my father, Aebom would have probably grown up like me now.”

“What kind of bullshit…”

“I didn’t think it was bullshit.”

“…”

“Because my father is so amazing and smart. Because I was oppressed by that, I became the indecisive and pathetic person I am now. Conversely, in Aebom’s case, her father is like this. He must have thought that he should do better and became the smart person he is today. “Like my father.”

“Even your thoughts are boring. It’s boring.”

“So, isn’t it true that my father had Aebom in mind, not me, as the next president? In the end, I am only this much of a human being. So, this incident. I have no intention of just passing on. Because, like my father said, I’m a loser. If he was better than me, wouldn’t he know? “If he’s worse than me, he should get paid for making fun of his mouth.”

Han Se-ryong eventually nodded his head.
Han Se-ho sees that and smiles bitterly. Wouldn’t this be what it feels like to see cracks in the Cheolongseong Fortress that seemed like it would never collapse?

“Okay. Do whatever you want. However, if you are going to do it, do it clearly.”

Han Se-ho nodded his head.

“I guess so. Although not as much as my father, I have changed. If you can’t do that, you can’t be the vice president of Hanban Group.”

“Okay. And…”

Han Se-ryong turned around and shouted proudly.

“I didn’t live that way because I wanted you to be unhappy or suffer!”

Han Se-ho burst into laughter as he watched Han Se-ryong say what he had to say until the end.

“I know.”

At that time, Han Se-ryong was a person who truly knew that this was the way for his family to be happy.
Han Se-ho also knew enough.

“Oh, so what do you think of that bastard Kim Hyun-woo?”

Han Se-ho smiled at Han Se-ryong’s question, which he thought was really going to go out.

“That won’t happen, though. In his case, if he were to be separated from his daughter, he would be more confident than his father to handle it.”

Han Se-ryong thought with a shocked expression.

That’s my son.

* * *

I never thought this frustration would go away.

I became so angry that it was ridiculous.

Whatever it is, in the end, I think it’s human nature to feel relieved only when someone makes me angry.

“If Hanban Group moves…”

-I’m sure we’ll handle it. As I say every time, I am a very gentlemanly person. The Hanban Group still retains some old customs and is barbaric.

To me, it seems like the difference is whether you unilaterally give it away, or pretend not to beat it and then give it back.

Anyway.

“Is that rather pitiful?”

-Not at all.

Oh Hanam’s voice was firm.

-If the number of cases had not been given in the first place, such a thing would not have occurred. There is absolutely no need to sympathize with this or feel resentful. I really hate that aspect of humans. It’s about turning a positive circuit the way you like.

“Aren’t I one of those people?”

-Hyeonwoo also has that kind of side to him. Hyunwoo, that’s okay.

A subject who only thinks what he likes.

-After you just shamelessly said that, didn’t you think I was the only one who thought what I wanted?

“Huh oh, oh!”

I swallowed the wind and looked around.

“Where are you, you bastard! Jump out, jump out right away. Fuck! I’ll kill you!”

-I really envy that simple way of thinking, Hyunwoo. Hehe.

What a crazy bastard!

-To sum it up, it’s like the arrogance of those who have money. It’s like a natural principle handed down from ancient times. It’s like when a kid in school is secretly good at fighting or a kid who is good at studying is the leader of the group.

“Aren’t you spying on me right now?”

-No. Would you like me to take a GPS photo of where I am right now and send it to you? Although it is domestic. It’s probably at least a few hours’ drive away from where Hyunwoo is.

That can’t be possible.

So how did you just read my mind? There’s no way I’m that simple!

“Well, anyway, I don’t feel bad.”

-Why? Han Ae-bom would not have been hurt by something like this.

I snorted.

I thought there was something this kid didn’t know either.

“Han Ae-bom even shed tears when you think that way.”

-I guess there was some dust in my eyes.

Wow, look at this guy’s talking tail. Is the Hanaebom that exists in this child’s head like an android without blood or tears?

-Hmm. I do not know. If the Han Ae-bom I knew was sad about her own shortcomings, she would have been sad. He is not a person who can be influenced by others.

“Huh?”

Wait for a sec. That’s what I heard.

Didn’t Han Ae-bom say a word about how she was hurt by this bastard or that she had to stop the series because of that?

“…”

[…]

Could it be that I wasn’t the only one who brought you to shadowboxing?

“Hey, I don’t know, dude. That’s it. Thank you for letting me know.”

-Wait.

“What? Why?”

-I would like to add a little to what I just said.

“Okay. Do whatever you want.”

-Probably hurt a little. Me too, Han Ae-bom. These days, it’s kind of like, what should I say? Should I say that I have gained a sense of humanity? So.

“Have you developed a sense of humanity?”

It was the funniest gag in the world.

I was able to laugh and hold my belly button.

-Yes. When Hyunwoo just said thank you to me.

Oh Hanam added in a lively voice.

-It was more exciting than I thought.

「Douuuuu…”

I thought seriously as the phone hung up before I could say anything. Should I block Oh Hanam’s number now or not?

No, before that, it was a question I had now.

When did this asshole’s number get added to my contacts? Really.

“And. “It gives me goosebumps.”

[Go to seat number 56 on the 4th floor of Hongik Human PC, 23 Hongik-ro 11-gil. The quest is completed.]

It was more shocking than the message that appeared before my eyes.

Anyway, I think today’s quest was really about communication.

“Hey, isn’t it actually possible to have a conversation?”

I was curious, so I asked the air.

There was no reply.

For no reason, only people passing by on the streets of Hongdae looked at me with strange eyes.

I returned home after covering my hot face.

[Terra One Room]

I entered the password of 5844 and entered the house.

It’s as if the atmosphere has always been gloomy.

Ohana and Han Ae-bom, who were completely back to normal, welcomed me.

“Where have you been? “When I woke up, he wasn’t there.”

“Ah…”

For a moment, I was itching to tell you what happened. I answered calmly, hiding my hands behind my back.

“I just went for a walk. Rather, are you feeling better, Mr. Aebom?”

“Oh, that’s it.”

An Aebom said, tucking her hair behind her ear.

“Yes. To be honest, I felt like I was a bit swayed this time. That in itself is very upsetting. It was a novel I worked hard to write, but I felt so pathetic that I had no choice but to stop serializing it because the grades weren’t good. I think I have no choice but to admit something. “I’m not particularly good at writing.”

It was just as Oh Hanam said.

One thing I noticed was that she wasn’t particularly angry at the guy who grabbed and shook her, but rather at her own shortcomings. It was the same with Ohana.

‘Well, I didn’t really need to overdo it.’

… The moment when I feel like I’m feeling sad for no reason.

Han Ae-bom said as she hugged me tightly.

“I’ve rarely been like this. Actually, I was a bit depressed. I think I was able to quickly regain my condition thanks to Hyunwoo. Thank you, Hyunwoo.”

The corner of the mouth that was about to go down ascended again.

I said while massaging Han Ae Bom’s butt.

“You’re welcome. Rather than that, I’m actually starting to go to work next week, right? In that sense, I think we should have a celebration party. How do you feel?”

Han Ae-bom and Oh Hana shouted at the same time.

“Of course you should do that!”

“That’s right! It’s a party, a party! When did Su-ah get off work? “When Sua gets off work, we all go shopping together!”

As I watched their reactions, I nodded with satisfaction.

Some people might misunderstand that I was angry because I couldn’t attend the employment celebration party, but in fact, that wasn’t wrong.

I asked Han Ae Bom as she went to the grocery store and was seriously thinking about what to buy.

“Mr. Aebom. Have you ever thought of going to a web novel academy? “I know a good teacher.”
