Chapter 263 – I’m Sorry, Joo Hwan-Ah (3)
Ho-jin Kim’s sudden action subsided the atmosphere in the restaurant. The voices of the merry chatting died down, and bewilderment appeared on the faces of the people.
Kim Ho-jin wiped away her tears and recited her words of apology.
“I’m sorry, Joo-hwan. I shouldn’t have done that to you. I sympathized with the bullying, but you… Big.”
“Hey, yumma. Away. What are you doing drinking?”
While saying that, Seo Joo-hwan patted Kim Ho-jin on the back. It is the first time that a male child is held while crying. To be honest, she was embarrassed and grateful rather than offended.
‘My child is much more fragile than I thought.’
During her school days her, Kim Ho-jin had never directly harmed her. She just didn’t mix her words her with him. Except for Moon Gyu-seok’s gang, everyone in this place was the same.
‘I don’t really care.’
I don’t know at the time, but now I have no feelings. When he was still an immature student, he had to follow the surrounding atmosphere, and it was not easy to rebel against Kyu-seok Moon, who was rumored to be vicious.
“Honey, it’s okay. It’s all in the past, but what?”
He picked Kim Ho-jin up with a smile. When I patted my back with a ‘hand of stability’, it seemed that my overwhelming heart had calmed down a bit.
But the situation was not settled. Kim Ho-jin’s girlfriend, Cho Hye-yoon, had also apologized to her.
“That, Joo-hwan-ah, I’m sorry too.”
“Hey, me too…….”
“I almost walked away without even apologizing. I’m sorry, Joo-hwan.”
Apologies were also made by several alumni. The alcohol made them sincere. Because of the apology that started with Kim Ho-jin, the dinner party has become a place for apologies.
“Ah-oh. Because it’s okay. Everyone stop. Embarrassing people…….”
Even as Seo Joo-hwan said that, he felt a small smile come out. He thought everything was fine, but he seemed to have a lump in his heart that he did not even know about. For some reason, it felt like a part of my heart was refreshing.
[10,000LP will be paid by achieving the achievement ‘Forgiveness’.]
“Puha!”
He burst into laughter at the sudden system message. What kind of situation is this? He picked up a bottle and poured each of his friends a drink.
“Anyway, stop it. Let’s all drink and relax If you do more, I will be embarrassed and leave.”
How many dozens of apologies would it take to sit in his seat? It was the first time in his life that the chicken meat was coming up.
“Now, wait a minute.”
At that time, there was someone who spoke in a voice full of bewilderment.
“What are you talking about? Did Joo-hwan ever get bullied?”
The owner of the voice is Yoo Min-seo, who was her homeroom teacher. She had a more embarrassed face than anyone else in the room.
“Ah, that…….”
Seo Joo-hwan awkwardly scratched the corners of his eyes. He had forgotten because of the dozens of apologies he received suddenly, but there was also Yoo Min-seo, who did not know about the bullying incident.

The reunion seat was sold out.
Originally, Yoo Min-seo would have left the first round and went to the second round with the rest of the people, but after her sudden apology her, most of them gave up their alcohol. Intoxicated, they staggered home.
“Goodbye everyone!”
“Call!”
“Juhwan-ah, you have to come next time!”
“Okay. See you again.”
Seo Joo-hwan waved to his friends. Kim Ho-jin, who had become unconscious, said that he must contact her again and was dragged away by her girlfriend her, Jo Hye-yoon.
“Juhwan-ah, can I call you sometime?”
Yang Hye-ji asked with her face full of regret.
Seo Joo-hwan snapped her forehead and flicked her fingers.
“See you only at the reunion, only at the reunion.”
“Chi.”
“Don’t like me, find another guy.”
Yang Hye-ji saw him grinning and opened her mouth in a daze. What do you mean you said this casually? Her attitude of her rejecting women several times reminded me of her face value of her.
“Wow, no luck. Wang Jae-soo!”
“Kuk-kuk. Moon Gyu-seok told me not to contact you, so don’t worry.”
Yang Hye-ji’s eyes widened. She said it like a joke, but did you already solve it?
“Oh, really? Really?”
“OK. Really. Oh, don’t get me wrong, I’m not dating you.”
“Woo. Don’t you get that wrong? Thanks anyway! I’ll go now too!”
“Oh, bye.”
“Oh!”
Yang Hye-ji whispered in my ear before leaving.
“You still have yours on the ship? Should I take responsibility if I get pregnant?”
“…….”
“Hi-Hi. I’m really going!”
Seo Joo-hwan smiled and looked at Yang Hye-ji, who was walking away. Whether it was a joke or a joke, it was a little creepy.
‘Wait a hundred days, will I get pregnant?’
Arm. There’s no way. If you bring someone else later, they will really scold you. I just want her to come to her senses her and find her her talent her.
‘Now…….’
Seo Joo-hwan glanced back. There was one person who stayed where everyone left. It was Yu Min-seo who remained until the end and saw off the disciples.
‘How do I seduce this teacher?’
Just the two of us are left, so let’s stick together for another drink. There seems to be a good bar nearby. It was when I was figuring out how to do that.
Yoo Min-seo approached first and he spoke cautiously.
“Juhwan-ah, you drank a lot. Are you okay?”
“Ah yes. I’m on the strong side of drinking, so I’m fine.”
“I’m glad. I was worried because I drank too much.”
“Haha. Do not worry. Even if I get drunk, I wake up quickly.”
When I intentionally exaggeratedly shrugged and bluffed, Yoo Min-seo smiled a little. However, she soon said with a gloomy face.
“Then can you give the teacher some time?”
“Time?”
“Yes. Because of that story…….”
I’m talking about a bullying incident when I was in middle school.
An incident that was initially reported and thought to have been resolved by reconciling the two. It was an incident in which he was completely unaware of the subsequent retaliation or continued bullying.
Seo Joo-hwan said he didn’t want to disturb the atmosphere anymore, but he said that he had been bullied for the past three years. She was a homeroom teacher for only one year, but she felt that she was not qualified as a teacher.
‘It’s because of me. Because I couldn’t handle it properly.’
At the time, the method Yoo Min-seo chose after receiving a report from Seo Joo-hwan was to have her parties face each other and apologize to the perpetrator. Since it is still a problem for young students, I thought that would be enough. It wasn’t until some time later that she realized that the method was wrong. And even after she realized it, she only thought that it was fortunate that the children passed safely thanks to her kindness to her.
‘It’s already past, but….’
You must properly ask for forgiveness. It should not be an apology that mixes vaguely like the disciples did. Because she was a teacher, not a child.
Yoo Min-seo felt responsible and guilty.
‘Nice!’
Meanwhile, Seo Joo-hwan was in the middle of calling for joy.
[Powerful luck on sex intervenes.]
When I asked why Kim Ho-jin was so lucky to apologize while crying while drunk, there was a reason for everything.
‘You’re doing this out of guilt.’
Following the alumni’s apology, the incident at the time was briefly revealed.
That planted a sense of guilt in Yu Min-seo’s heart. The opportunity was created because she truly cared for the children in her class and was a true teacher.
‘I’m sorry for using my guilt, but.’
A piece of S-class talent is in front of you, but is it a problem with a little conscience? After all, it is clear that this is the victim. And Yoo Min-seo is the one who made the wrong decision with hasty judgment and put him in a more difficult situation.
After being mentally armed like that, Seo Ju-hwan deliberately made a sad expression.
‘Kyung-eun’s sister told me she couldn’t act.’
Instructor I met at Leadership Camp.
Joo Kyung-eun had told him that her acting was poor.
So Joo-Hwan Seo used his ability his.
[The special ability ‘Vocal imitation’ is activated.]
The target of imitation is the main character of a historical drama I recently watched. The situation is a scene in which the female protagonist pathetically confesses her past trauma.
Seo Joo-hwan looked at Yoo Min-seo with a heartbreaking expression. And he spoke in a low, cracked, watery voice full of pain.
“The story of that time is a bit difficult to tell. It’s hard just thinking about it.”
“Ah…”
Seo Ju-hwan’s expression was a little clumsy, but his voice had the power to make his heart ache. Yoo Min-seo let out a sad sound at the emotional voice of her and drooped her eyes.
‘How hard was it? Because of the bad teacher…….’
Seo Joo-hwan’s expression and voice were just acting, but the content was nothing more than the truth. Yoo Min-seo sympathized because he heard his past her, albeit vaguely.
Seo Joo-hwan smiled bitterly as he looked at her face that looked like she was about to cry.
“It is difficult, but I still want to talk to the teacher. I liked that teacher a lot.”
“Yes. The teacher also liked Joo-hwan. He was a responsible, good kid.”
“I wanted to confide in someone at least once. It would be nice if that was a teacher. Because the teacher saved us more than anyone else. To me, Teacher Yoo was the best teacher throughout my school days.”
“Joo Hwan…….”
Yoo Min-seo looked up at her own disciple her.
She is a disciple who tells herself that she is a good teacher who has not even solved the problem of bullying, but has made it worse. Rather, her guilt her only increased.
A grown-up disciple says:
“It’s a bit difficult with a bare mind… Would you like a drink? I think I need to get drunk.”
“Yes, the teacher will buy it for you.”
“Haha. Then I’ll act a bit childish today, Teacher Yu.”
After saying that, Seo Joo-hwan naturally took Yoo Min-seo’s hand her. She hesitated for a moment, but did not let go of her hand. Rather, she held on tighter, as if trying to give her strength to her.
Didn’t a disciple with a painful memory say that he would play a fool? She, her true teacher her, could not refuse.
Seo Joo-hwan secretly raised the corner of her mouth from an angle she couldn’t see.
‘Teacher, I was very tired and sick at that time. If you’re really sorry, please comfort me.’
If possible, please do so with your body.
Today, too, one step at a time, he was steadily reborn as a bastard. If Lucy saw him, he would have praised him for being the master of the desire system.

Seo Joo-hwan and Yu Min-seo went into a space where they could have a good conversation together. I thought it would be nice to have a well-soundproofed place since it was something close to trauma.
After entering the store, Yoo Min-seo looked around and swallowed. Somehow, I was led by Seo Joo-hwan, but just looking at the interior, I thought it would be quite expensive.
‘Hee!’
Sure enough, when I looked at the menu, the unit of price ranged from several tens of thousands of won to several tens of thousands of won. For a teacher’s salary, it was quite a burdensome amount.
‘Ugh. They’re trying to hate me.’
Worrying about money first while asking for forgiveness from a disciple. I hated the reality of thinking snobbishly.
‘No. I’m not asking for forgiveness Forgiveness is the heart of a person who forgives, and I pray for mistakes.’
Whether or not to forgive is up to the person concerned. A sincere apology is not a request for forgiveness. Wasn’t Seo Joo-hwan’s trauma itself caused by the reconciliation he had forced himself to do in the first place? She’s got her mind set anew.
Drooling.
Just then, the door opened and Seo Joo-hwan, who had been going to the bathroom, returned. He was about to come from the bathroom fully prepared.
‘Equip item pool. I’ll see the match today.’
There was nothing to use, so I used several items that I had stored in my inventory. He was even wearing glasses that he hadn’t bothered to look at since his eyesight his improved.
【Silver-rimmed glasses with a sad story】
▶ Effect: Brings a feeling of melancholy to the wearer’s eyes.
【Attractive lip balm】

【Eye drops perfect for convenience】
▶Effect: Eye drops are secreted at the desired moment even without direct administration.
As she was in Yoo Min-seo’s class, she had a rough idea of her personality. Because of her soft and kind heart her, she can’t turn away from people who are having a hard time and are in pain.
‘Trauma, guilt, sad disciple.’
The concept has already been decided.
Seo Ju-hwan ordered wine and snacks and shared a glass with Yoo Min-seo for a while.
“Sir, then slowly…….”
“Yes. Talk comfortably, Joo-hwan.”
Yoo Min-seo nodded her head and smiled softly. It is to reassure Seo Joo-hwan, who confides about the trauma. She somehow ended up in a position that was more of a counseling rather than an apology, but this was also her job her as a teacher.
Seo Joo-hwan moistened his lips with wine and carefully opened his mouth.
“At that time, after the teacher reconciled… As you may have heard, Kyu-Seok Moon did not reflect at all. I only apologized in front of the teacher, but the bullying in the invisible place only got worse.”
“…….”
Yoo Min-seo pursed her lips, then she swallowed her words as she clenched her fists tightly. Now is the time for Seo Joo-hwan to speak. How sincere would it be if I hung up in the middle and said I’m sorry?
It was then.
Suddenly, a tear flowed from the pupil’s eye.
