Episode 1524. Everything will be alright.

I looked at Yeon Jeong-woon and Kim Mi-ran with interesting faces.

Looking at his slightly lacking descendants and his fox-like wife, a smile naturally forms on his face.

Meanwhile, Kim Mi-ran bit her lip as Yeon-jeok-ha acted relaxed.

‘As expected, it’s suspicious.’

Anyone who was faced with this situation would be flustered, but he was calm.

It doesn’t feel that way because it’s going through a simultaneous interpretation app on your phone.

With a son and daughter in their twenties, she knew intuitively.

That the young man in front of me was different from ordinary people.

Then suddenly, the mutants she had seen on the news a few days ago came to her mind.

If he was a mutant, getting up and down this floor without a ladder would be a piece of cake.

Kim Mi-ran, who had thought about it up to that point, opened her mouth.

“Last night, we heard a noise in the room where my father-in-law’s belongings were, so we checked. But there was no one there, and the window was wide open. Whoever it was, it seemed like they ran away in a hurry. The room is on this floor, so you need a ladder to get in and out from the outside. But there was no ladder in the yard.”

It was quite a long story, so Kim Mi-ran interrupted each sentence to interpret it on her phone.

“That happened.”

As soon as Yeonjeokha answered, Kim Mi-ran continued speaking.

“But I saw on the news that mutants can jump up two or three floors without any problems?”

“Oh, I saw that too.”

“If Mr. Jeokha is a mutant, we cannot help but suspect Mr. Jeokha.”

This time, unlike before when he said it wasn’t Yeon Jeong-un, he pretended not to hear.

This is because Yeonjeok-ha showed interest in the Gucheonhyeonnyeo-gyeong and even asked to sell it.

‘Chief Gu In-hoe buying it and giving it to Yeon Jeok-ha as a gift’ and ‘Yeon Jeok-ha setting her eyes on the Gucheonhyeonnyeo-gyeong’ were completely separate issues.

If Yeonjeokha is a mutant as the wife said, then all mysteries will be solved naturally.

And given the usual attitude of the recruiting department head, there was a high possibility that Yeonjeok-ha was a mutant.

‘Tsk! Just hold on for a few days. Manager Koo would have given it to you as a gift anyway… … .’

Meanwhile, as her husband silently agreed, Kim Mi-ran continued to pressure Yeon-jeok-ha.

“We also have a genetic mutation measurement device (MDM) that Junwoo bought for us at home. No one in our family has a mutation. Can I test Mr. Jeok-ha? It’s not mandatory, so it’s okay if you decline.”

Yeonseoyeon, who had gone into the room, seemed curious and pretended to drink water before coming back out to the kitchen.

Yeonjeok nodded coolly.

“Please do so.”

When Yeon Jeok-ha agreed, Kim Mi-ran came from the living room holding a black pad slightly larger than a cell phone.

“This is a genetic mutation detector (MDM) made by Daesung Electronics. They say it is more accurate than the American version.”

Along with the words, Kim Mi-ran placed a black pad in front of Yeon-jeok-ha.

A white circle spun around on a black screen, indicating that the switch had been turned on.

It was funny to think of Jin Gwa-wol and Im Cho-yeon, who were rivals, but I pretended to be indifferent and reached out my hand.

I am grateful for the way of thinking of modern people who blindly believe in science as if it were a religion.

This time again, the number that appeared on the black pad was 0.

Kim Mi-ran, bewildered by the unexpected result, muttered with a bewildered face.

“It’s a spirit… … .”

To her, Yeon-jeok-ha spoke as if driving a wedge into her.

“I heard that in China they don’t let mutants leave the country.”

“Is that so? I’m sorry for doubting you for no reason.”

“I understand. But it’s also disappointing. Fortunately, I’m not a mutant, so I was able to avoid suspicion… … Even if I were a mutant, that wouldn’t be a reason for me to be a thief. There are probably a lot of mutants in Korea, too.”

That was also true, so Kim Mi-ran could only laugh bitterly and couldn’t refute it.

After checking the results, Yeon Seo-yeon went back to her room to avoid the awkward atmosphere.

Kim Mi-ran put the genetic mutation measuring device back in its place.

“Okay, then I’ll go back to work?”

Yeonjeokha called out to Yeonjeongun, who was trying to sneak away with her words.

“uncle.”

“uh?”

“I’m going to the hotel now.”

“Why? Aren’t there more? If you want to learn Korean quickly, wouldn’t it be better to stay at my house?”

“I feel uneasy.”

“Hey, if you go out like that, we’ll feel uncomfortable too.”

“I find it strange that I continue to stay in this house just to make my uncle and his wife feel comfortable. Don’t you think so?”

He is a person who is clear about when to start and end relationships.

The only reason he came to Yeon Jeong-un’s house was to meet Gu Cheon-hyeon-nyeo.

Now that that goal had been achieved, there was no reason to stay at Yeon Jeong-woon’s house and endure the discomfort.

Yeon Jeong-woon’s heart sank at his attitude that cut like a knife.

Even though he was my nephew, who was as young as my son, I felt bad as if I was being scolded by my father.

“That’s right. Do whatever you want. Are you planning on leaving right now?”

“Yes. Thank you for your time.”

Yeon Jeong-un wanted to tell his wife and daughter, but he held back because he thought it would only make the atmosphere more awkward.

“I should be the one thanking you. Thanks to you, I was able to sign a good contract with Manager Koo.”

Since the conversation was in Chinese without an interpreter, Yeon Jeong-un expressed her gratitude without worrying about what her family thought.

“The contract with the former manager may not continue. So it would be better to slowly prepare for what comes next.”

He said that if he and the triad distanced themselves, the investment would naturally be settled.

“Okay, I understand.”

Yeon Jeong-un didn’t ask why because he had expected it to happen.

In fact, the 200 million won deposit, the 600 million won from the sale of the relics, and the monthly salary for 5 years were more than enough luck.

Yeonjeok left the house with her Korean language textbook as usual.

***

Around 1pm.

The last lecture was over, but I didn’t get up from my seat.

Since I told Yeon Jeong-woon that I was going to ‘leave the house’, I had to find a new place to stay right away.

‘Wouldn’t it be better to stay in Incheon for now, at least for the sake of the academy?’

I didn’t want to stay in Incheon any longer.

The city was small, but more than anything, I wanted to get away from Yeonjeongun’s house.

Although he pretended to be calm at that moment, he was hurt by Kim Mi-ran’s words.

I had no idea that the person I was living with would think of me as a thief.

Of course it’s true that I sneaked into that room, but still!

How could you possibly think of yourself as someone who would steal or something?

Originally a thief in the Green Forest, he could never shake off the suspicion that he was a thief.

He searched for accommodations on his phone, found one close to the academy, and got up from his seat.

Since my Korean skills are not good enough to make inquiries over the phone, I planned to visit in person and use an interpretation app.

Finding accommodation was easier than expected.

When I first visited the Next Hotel and inquired about a long-term stay, the manager offered me a whopping 15% discount.

Without any hesitation, Yeon-jeok shouted OK right there on the spot.

I didn’t even exchange my money because they said I could pay in Yuan.

After receiving the plastic room key, I looked around the room and went back out.

And then I just wandered around Incheon.

Every time I met people, I spoke to them in broken Korean.

Maybe because we share the same ancestors, Korean became easier to speak as time went by.

So, for simple everyday terms we use, there was no need to use an interpretation app.

As the city was bathed in the setting sun, we hailed a taxi and headed back to the Next Hotel.

As he crossed the hotel lounge, his cell phone rang loudly in his arms.

When I took it out, I saw that it was the head of the recruitment department.

“Yes, Manager Koo.”

―Mr. Yeon, how have you been? I heard from Mr. Yeon of Seokgyeongjang a little while ago. Did he come out of Mr. Yeon’s house?

“I think it would be better for me to be alone.”

-Good job. Have you decided on a place to stay? If you haven’t decided yet, I’ll get you a room at the Renaissance Hotel where I am.

“I already have it. I will just accept your heart.”

– Oh, I see. If you don’t have any plans, how about having dinner together tonight? I’m going on a business trip to Hong Kong tomorrow, so I don’t think I’ll be able to see you for a while.

Even though the other person said that, Yeon-Rik did not refuse.

When Yeonjeokha agreed, Gu In-hoe asked Yeonjeokha for the name of the hotel and came right away.

It was just 10 minutes after I ended the call.

The two people who met in the hotel lounge moved to a Korean restaurant inside the hotel.

Despite putting everything aside and rushing to come, Gu In-hoe didn’t say much.

In fact, he had heard the story of the previous night while receiving the Nine Heavenly Women’s Sutra during the day.

The reason Yeonjeok-ha didn’t take the Gucheonhyeonnyeo-gyeong away at that time was probably because there was no proper place to store it.

Now that Yeonjeokha has a separate place to stay, it is only a matter of time before she takes the Goocheonhyeonnyeo Gyeong.

However, the item will be moved to the Hong Kong Honglianbang warehouse tomorrow.

Like it or not, Yeon-hwa will have no choice but to maintain close relations with the Triad.

After the meal, Gu In-hoe politely greeted them and turned around as if nothing had happened.

As the recruiting party disappeared from sight, Yeonjeok tilted his head.

“What? You’re a single person.”

***

3 years later.

Gangnam-gu, Seoul.

Chinese restaurant Seokgyeongjang branch 2.

Two young men who looked to be in their mid to late twenties were sitting across from each other, having a conversation.

“So, did Manager Gu give you the Gangnam branch number 2?”

“uh.”

“Brother, did you obtain permanent residency in Korea?”

“No, I also became a naturalized citizen.”

Due to its population shortage, Korea has relaxed its naturalization requirements, allowing people to apply after only three years of residence in Korea.

“Not a permanent resident?”

“Oh, I am also a descendant of Goguryeo, so I have no reason to live as a Chinese person. Like Yeon Ga-ryang, the founder of Seokgyeongjang, I am also a person who has fallen and returned to my roots.”

“You are wonderful.”

“What’s cool? China is under strict control by the Communist Party… …. A free person like me can’t live there. Just trying to go to another region requires a permit, or something… …. Ugh! I’m sick of it, I’m sick of it.”

“Did you find your sister-in-law?”

“Even if you were born that year, you’d be three years old now. Do you think you’ll be found? My older sister told me to come find you like a butterfly so that you can bloom into a flower. You still have a long way to go before you bloom.”

“Sister-in-law, you must be in your prime?”

“yes.”

“I envy you.”

“What are you jealous of? You’re seeing a cute girl too.”

“I’m not feeling so well these days.”

“Why? What’s the problem? He has supernatural powers, is recognized by big companies, and plays the piano well. There’s no way a woman would dislike a man like that.”

“My girlfriend’s mother… … is very picky about the family.”

“What is that? You’re not dating your girlfriend’s mother. Have you ever seen a train stop because a dog barked? Sister Yeon even broke up with her family because of me. Of course, my father-in-law apologized later and it was covered up.”

“It’s different with your sister-in-law. Your girlfriend is emotionally very dependent on your mother. Haa!”

“Then have an accident. Once the child gets in, you won’t be able to object, right?”

“That’s… … I’m not that close with my girlfriend yet.”

“The woman of destiny?”

“The other person doesn’t know that. Right now, we’re just in a flirtatious relationship.”

“… … .”

Yeonjeokha’s eyes shook slightly at the words that the other person didn’t know that.

Because it doesn’t feel like someone else’s business.

‘They said that even the Nine Heavenly Women wouldn’t remember anything if they were reincarnated… … .’

Yeonjeokha, trying hard to shake off her anxious thoughts, spoke forcefully.

“Everything will be okay.”

If that doesn’t work, I will make it happen even if it means strangling the god who governs the present world.
