Episode 156

Kim Do-hyuk returned like that.

He said that he hopes to continue to take good care of the tiger shelter as he has done so far.

He also said that the tiger shelter he saw on the way here looked just as good as when his grandfather was there.

But I don’t know what he saw to make him say that.

“But I don’t think I can see the aura… … .”

Kuru?

Brownie tilted his head when his eyes met mine.

Just in case, I had Brownie and Miho wander around Kim Do-hyeok. The same goes for Aura.

But he didn’t seem to know that.

Suddenly, Kim Do-hyuk’s aura came to mind.

He had an aura that was more special than anyone else.

It was an aura that had the shape of something, even if it was only for a moment. It was a type I had never seen before.

Maybe it was because he had that kind of aura that I felt good about it?

Wasn’t it the same at the ranch before? Su-ah, Han-song-i, and the others, who had come into contact with the aura of the tiger shelter, smelled the stench of pollution.

If it were Kim Do-hyuk, who had a special aura that was clearer and stronger than theirs, he might be able to feel the energy that the Tiger Shelter exuded.

‘That makes me feel a little proud.’

Because I was praised for the time I spent.

Anyway, the important thing was that such a person was friendly here.

This time too, the reason I came here was to help you.

In order to cut off the bad relationship with my old company.

Of course, since Kim Do-hyeok and I were destroyed before we could even do anything, the meaning of coming this far was lost.

‘But if that was really the reason, you could have done it over the phone. The real reason you came all the way here was probably to check out how the tiger shelter was being run.’

And the result was a passing grade, and he said he would be on my side.

That’s exactly what was important.

Because the efforts made so far have created such allies.

That’s why I was proud.

By the way.

“I wonder what would have happened if Attorney Kim Do-hyeok had come forward.”

Anyway, what kind of person is attorney Kim Do-hyeok, who is now truly on my side?

I know that he is a partner attorney in a fairly high position at Hyunmu Law Firm.

And that alone is great, but seeing that extraordinary aura, I somehow felt like there was more to it than that.

“… … Okay. What am I going to do if I know that much?”

Anyway, I gave up on the idea early on because I knew that they wouldn’t know if I was worrying about it here.

Since the old company’s affairs were taken care of well, there’s no need to worry.

‘Even if Daesan Group is related, why did Bae Jun-ho come out?’

This is a bit questionable, but there’s nothing I can find out right away.

I decided to ask him directly later.

Then it gets simpler.

All I can do now is… … .

Swish.

I saw the business card that Kim Do-hyeok gave me.

Did you ask me to tell you because you thought it might lead to a new relationship?

Of course, it wasn’t something I asked you to tell me.

I told him to give it to the customer who arrived before Kim Do-hyeok.

I felt a little sorry for that customer, so I wanted him to come again.

If I come again, I can give you my business card and talk to you, so it’s a good thing.

“I would like to be a little more helpful then.”

If that’s the case, I’ll have to prepare hard again.

And then I suddenly wondered if there was another person like Kim Do-hyuk.

‘Hmm… … .’

After thinking about it carefully, I had a feeling there might be some around me.

Although not as much as Kim Do-hyeok, Su-ah had a shining aura.

How surprised I was when I first saw Su-ah’s aura.

Many guests have come since then, but it is hard to find an aura as bright and clear as Suah’s.

Maybe when Su-ah grows up, she will have a more special aura than Kim Do-hyuk?

“… … I have to do well, right?”

In fact, it wasn’t just Su-ah. Some of the regulars in Cheonho-ri Village were just as good as Su-ah.

I should treat my regulars better. I don’t know when they’ll grow up to be like Kim Do-hyuk.

Of course, it wasn’t difficult because I could just continue doing what I’m doing now.

But even if they weren’t regulars, there was a possibility that there would be customers who came here and regained their bright aura.

I even received help from Bae Jun-seong, who came to visit me once.

… … In the end, what it meant was that everyone had to do their best.

Of course, I had no intention of discriminating against other guests in the first place.

“Let’s do as we have been doing.”

Kuru~

“Yeah, yeah. You worked hard earlier, but I didn’t even get to thank you.”

Brownie sat on my shoulder.

He expressed his gratitude by brushing the dirt off the boy’s nose.

I remembered that I had asked him to plow the garden, but I couldn’t say anything properly because something came up.

Brownie said he was fine and rested his body stretched out on her shoulder.

That sight made me chuckle.

‘Then I guess the field has been plowed. Let’s plant some potatoes.’

There’s something I have to do before the guests arrive.

Now that the field is plowed, it’s time to plant seed potatoes, but of course we need seed potatoes to do that.

I asked the village chief for this earlier, and he readily agreed to take it.

So, we decided to go to the village chief’s field first.

“You’re not going to pile up a ton of money again, are you?”

I don’t know about anything else, but given the size of the field here, I don’t think you’d do that.

Um… … I guess so?

* * *

Fortunately, the village chief prepared just the amount needed.

The village chief said he couldn’t give me more because he had to plant more in his field. That was a good thing.

“Why, brother?”

“If you want to get seed potatoes, you have to help out with some work.”

Kang Do-yoon responded to his words by picking plums.

We were working together now.

I thought it would be a bit shameful to just go get seed potatoes, so I decided to help out a bit while I was here. I also got a lot of plums.

“I’ve seen it before, but it really is a huge field.”

“That’s right. I’ve never seen such a wide field before.”

“Me too. But what about Seon-ah?”

“I went because it was time to stream.”

“ah.”

Well, he has a real job.

Of course, Kang Do-yoon also had a main job. He is still doing this for his wonderful main job as an actor.

“Should I call it research? Acting practice? Anyway, how’s it going?”

“Yes. Well. If I just go and take a picture now, wouldn’t it look like I’ve moved to the countryside?”

“That’s true.”

You said it was an independent film?

I think the theme was rural healing experienced by a young man who returned to farming there.

So, I stayed here and experienced the countryside. But he greedily said that he had something to learn from me.

You’re really passionate about your work.

“Did you say you had a strange feeling about me before?”

“Yes. That’s the point, actually.”

“What does that feel like?”

After seeing Kim Do-hyeok’s aura, I thought back to that story and had a strange feeling.

That’s why I asked since it occurred to me. It seems like Kang Do-yoon might have just as good a sense as Kim Do-hyeok.

“Well, what should I say? Should I say that I feel an aura? Anyway, I can’t explain it, but I feel something like that.”

“Aura?”

It was a stinging moment.

Of course, the aura that Kang Do-yoon talks about is different from the aura I see. But in a broad sense, it could be right.

Because Kim Do-hyuk did that.

Didn’t you feel an unknown force from Kim Do-hyuk, who had that kind of aura?

As if I had become a giant.

‘I also used an aura to fight against him, so maybe it really works?’

If that’s the case, then Kang Do-yoon’s intuition was really good.

Maybe we should look at this a little differently?

Surely Kang Do-yoon will become a truly great actor later on?

It’s not like you can become a great actor just because you have a good sense…

“Really? But can you learn that?”

“Well, I guess I’ll try to imitate it somehow.”

Kang Do-yoon, who has a small build and a soft impression, said it as if it was nothing.

But the sight seemed a little different.

Somehow he seemed confident.

That’s why the person felt bigger than his small stature.

“Oh! I was wondering something anyway.”

“Huh? Are you curious about something?”

“Yes, brother. Where did you get that haircut?”

“……head?”

Why the hair all of a sudden?

“Somehow I think that hair style would suit this role’s lead character well.”

“Ah. But this is just something I grew up with.”

“Just like that?”

“Come to think of it, I haven’t cut it separately since I came here. I think it’s time to cut it soon.”

Should I say that I didn’t have the presence of mind to care about my hair, or should I say that I wasn’t interested?

After hearing it, I thought the hair was a bit long.

But if I want to get my hair cut here, I’ll have to go out of town at least…

‘It’s annoying. If it gets any longer, I’ll just tie it roughly.’

There was no one to show it to anyway.

“That’s right. In that case… … I’ll challenge myself too.”

“What is the challenge?”

I couldn’t help but laugh out loud at Kang Do-yoon’s words.

Can’t you just leave the hair to someone to style it? Clearly, this one wasn’t normal either.

“You got it all!”

The village chief shouted from afar, as if he had heard our commotion.

You must have good hearing too.

I decided to start with work first. But this is more fun than I thought.

The garden at the tiger shelter was just a little overflowing, but here, it seemed like there was no end to the gardening.

It was hot, but I guess it was worth filling the boxes?

Sometimes I think it wouldn’t be a bad idea to come over and help out.

“… … You’re a strange older brother. Are you laughing right now? You have to follow all the way there?”

“Yeah. It’s fun, isn’t it?”

Kang Do-yoon shook his head and muttered.

He said I was a weird guy.

I think you’re weirder.

Actually, there was a reason why I was so relaxed.

I received the blessing of mugwort and also ate watermelon, which helped with the heat.

But he was suffering in this heat just for one role.

‘Toxic, poisonous.’

But I couldn’t bring myself to help them. That was all part of experiencing the countryside firsthand.

Before I become a real great actor, I should get some autographs… … .

Before that, I made eye contact with the village chief from afar.

Let’s do some work.

* * *

Vroom~!

There was a motorcycle running on a country road.

It was the motorcycle that Ahn Chi-hyuk rode.

I got up in the morning and went around here and there as calls came in, and before I knew it, it was past lunchtime, but I still had no time to rest.

‘Whew─. Everything else is fine, but it’s so hot in the summer that it’s hard.’

Even though I was riding my motorcycle and feeling the wind, the sun was hot and the heat was still there.

But I can’t not do it, right?

An Chi-hyuk suddenly remembered his childhood dream of riding a motorcycle.

His dream was to become a prosecutor or a lawyer. And it still remains true today.

There was no other reason.

Because the sight of them when I was young stayed in my memory for a long time.

Even though that was just what it looked like in a drama, I still wanted to do it.

They say dramas and reality are different, but many people don’t know reality anyway.

Because the reality is that only the prosecutors and lawyers themselves know.

In the end, other people see them for who they really are in the drama.

It’s as if the chaebols in the chaebol dramas are known as real chaebols.

So, if you become yourself, it also means that other people will see you that way.

That’s why I wanted to be like that. Someone who fights with the law instead of fists.

But the reality was not easy.

First of all, I had to go to college.

And that required money.

For Ahn Chi-hyuk, who is now effectively the head of the household, the reality is a bit overwhelming. If he doesn’t work right away, his family will starve.

But still… …I didn’t give up.

So I studied from time to time.

I ran like that again today, hoping that when my younger siblings grow up, they will be able to challenge their own dreams.

‘I heard there was a nice cafe there this morning. I’d like to stop by and have something cold.’

Today, I kept feeling like going to a cafe.

But I was busy with work so I didn’t think I could go today.

I should go again tomorrow morning.

But are you open early in the morning?
