My Girlfriend Has Already Completed Teaching Assistantship. 283

Chapter 283 – (Abduction) Persuasion

A month after leaving her angry with her wife.
In a corner of Jung Hyun-jae’s heart, a lump was hardened.
In the end, he couldn’t achieve anything on his own, and it was the result of his old lethargy festering.

‘Why…’

I hadn’t originally thought of it like this.
I had no intention of separating from my wife because it was so completely different.

Because he had a plan too.
He didn’t really care if her wife showed her twisted desires because she had a plan to bring back her wife, who still had the remnants of Mr. Choi, on her own.
She knew she could make it right.

It’s not because he’s different now than he used to be.
Because she was able to subdue Mr. Choi, who had become her half-asshole, and prove her own masculinity.

I thought that if I could prove my masculinity by completely destroying Mr. Choi, I would be able to turn her wife back to her original self.
Just as he made her ‘Min Sera’, he thought he could take the time to completely erase the remnants of her Min Sera and revert her back to ‘Lee Shin-ah of the past’.

‘But why is it Seongmin…’

However, the moment the wife’s lust confirmed that the target was her son, all of those plans came to nothing.
His own ambition to get her wife back by his own power was crushed in an instant.

Because of this, Jung Hyun-jae, who felt despondent, was angry.
When his first attempt at self-directed restoration of his wife failed, resentment and futility of his wife set in.
I couldn’t quite figure out what to do.

“Honey…”

And again, it became this unsightly appearance.
He tried to pretend to be weak, but he was still just weak like this.
In the end, there was nothing he could accomplish on his own.

“Turn it off…”

Jung Hyun-jae held his head.

***

Colorful lights that subtly illuminate the darkness of the room.
The volume of jazz music that is comfortable to listen to.
A straight table made of marble, simple yet modern interior.
Numerous types of premium liquors displayed on wide wooden shelves.

The women of Jeong Seong-min looked around the cocktail bar run by Lee Ha-young.
Lighting, music, interior. Everything was perfectly aligned to create a luxurious atmosphere unique to this place.

“It’s pretty good. Do you have any sense for this?”

Four beauties sat side by side at a straight table.
Among them, Lee Hee-yeon, who was seated on the far left, left an impression of Lee Ha-young’s cocktail bar.

“Of course. Who could run a business like me.”

And Lee Ha-young put on a confident expression and shrugged her shoulders.
In the not-so-distant past, Jung Sung-min’s business sense was still alive, as she had successfully operated Yangji’s business and pleasure center.

“Well, admit it. But why are you using that ability in a place like this?”

However, the reason Lee Hee-yeon and the women came here was not to praise Lee Ha-young’s business sense.
They had a purpose to bring her Lee Ha-young back.
I hate to admit it, but the owner’s symptoms of alcohol dependence seem to be related to Lee Ha-young’s departure.

“How is it here? It’s okay. There is also a small pleasure. There is nothing to be very stressed about. It’s fun to hear about people’s lives.”

However, Lee Ha-young replied that she does not have the heart to go back, and that she likes her current life.
In fact, her expression looked brighter than when she was running the pleasure center.
But-.

“Jeong Seong-min is having a hard time.”

At Baek Ha-yoon’s words, Lee Ha-young’s expression hardened coldly.
The smile from a while ago is nowhere to be found, and with a face full of worries, he asks how Jung Sung-min is doing.

“Seo, Seongmin…? Why? What happened? Aren’t you sick somewhere?”

“…I have severe alcohol dependence. She couldn’t sleep without drinking.”

“…”

Lee Ha-young’s shocked expression.
Shaking shoulders, rapid breathing.
Then she quietly lowers her head.
Before long, Ahn Ji-yeon put down her sipping cocktail and said.

“Sister. What happened with the master? She’s my sister, why did she suddenly go on a trip, why did she leave us as soon as she came back? She said she would be restless like this.”

Lee Ha-young lowers her head without saying a word to her.
Then she smiled bitterly and lifted her head.

“It’s just… She only realized while traveling. I… I’m just a hindrance to Seongmin.”

“…Hindrance?”

“Huh. Actually, Sungmin is…”

Lee Ha-young began to explain the conflict between her desires of Jeong Seong-min and her own.
In other words, she is trying to return Jung Sung-min to his past, while Jung Sung-min does not want to go back to the past when he was weak.

Eventually, when Lee Ha-young finished talking, the first person she spoke was Elena.

“What is so complicated? Then, Onnu can match honey. Honey wants to go back to the past, but Onnu is trying to go back to the past.”

Elena’s angry expression.
She said.

“Now that I know about Onnu’s past. He said he did a lot of damage to our sweetheart. That’s why she doesn’t like honey to go back to the past. But why do you want to bring Honey back to the past?”

Elena’s way of speaking directly by pointing out the core.
Her speech was slurred due to her excitement, but her words were clearly true.
Lee Ha-young nodded her head obediently and replied.

“That’s right. I don’t deserve anything so you left She decided to give up on bringing him back to the past, and decided to live with missing him forever. That is the sin I must bear.”

“…”

Somber atmosphere.
Lee Ha-young’s firm position and her words that cannot be refuted.
Said Elena scratching her head.

“…No. If you’ve decided to give up like that, let’s just stay by her side.”

“…No. If you see Seongmin by your side, you will keep getting greedy. Sungmin will also make me uncomfortable. It’s right that we’re apart like this… Slowly forgetting about it.”

“…”

Jung Seong-min’s women silently sipping cocktails.
The women of Jeong Seong-min ambitiously tried to bring Lee Ha-young back, but lost their justification after hearing her explanation.
But then.

-Bang!

Lee Hee-yeon, who had taken one shot of the cocktail by herself, put the glass down on her table and said,

“Have you ever thought about it?”

Focused attention.
Lee Hee-yeon glared at Lee Ha-young with her eyes sharp.

“Really… I’ve thought about it countless times. What on earth did I lack, that her husband became dependent on alcohol or something? Lee Ha-Young. What the hell are you doing, do you still have alcohol by your side after a year?”

“…”

As if sympathizing with Lee Hee-yeon’s words, each woman nodded.
The girls were also aware of Jung Sung-min’s alcohol dependence, and each tried to solve it in their own way.
However, in the end, all their efforts went in vain, and they had no choice but to bring Lee Ha-young as a last resort.

Heeyeon Lee said.

“After thinking and thinking so much, I finally found out the reason. Why is my husband not recovering this far?”

A hole pierced in Jung Sung-min’s heart to the extent that he relied on alcohol.
When everyone didn’t know the reason, only Lee Hee-yeon was able to find out the reason
As she had watched Jung Sung-min for a long time, it was Lee Hee-yeon who knew Jung Sung-min’s heart best.
She said.

“The reason is simple. What we can’t give you, because you have it. Lee Ha-Young. What only you can give.”

Something that only Lee Ha-young can give.
Everyone showed interest in the topic raised by Lee Hee-yeon.
It is a topic that stimulates each person’s self-esteem.

“…Where is that for me? I’m just a bitch who only hurt Seongmin…”

However, Lee Ha-young said that she sincerely thought that she had no value.
She said, raising the corners of her mouth.

“Running a business with a pleasure house? Isn’t that what my successor is doing well? How many talents are there under Sungmin? Even if it’s not me, the business will run well.”

Lee Ha-young has completed the perfect takeover of the pleasure center and business so that she can run well even without her confidence.
Because of this, there was nothing she could do to help with work.

“But what am I… I don’t have huge power like Elena, I lost my innocence a long time ago… I don’t have a reputation like Ha Yoon unnie, I don’t have great strength like Jiyeon, haha… Heeyeon is you It’s not like it’s necessary for Sungmin’s business…”

She lists the reasons why she is useless, and Lee Ha-young lowers her head while blurting out her behind-the-scenes talk.
Then she burst into tears and said.

“What can I do? What can only I do? If there is such a thing, hurting Sungmin. Making Seongmin suffer by making him think of the past where he became unhappy because of me. It was so nasty and foolish that it clung to Seongmin like a leech! Keep scratching Seongmin’s insides hoping that he will be forgiven someday! That’s all I can do It’s all that a bitch like me can do…”

Lee Ha-young turned around after saying what she had to say.
She said, wiping her tears with the sleeve of her dress.

“Go back. You guys help So that Sungmin can overcome it well. There’s nothing I can do…”

Women shaking their heads.
However, Lee Hee-yeon was still staring at Lee Ha-young, who was standing behind her, with her head raised.
She said, gnashing her teeth.

“Done? You inferiority complex bitch? Why are you useless, is that the end?”

Heeyeon Lee’s angry voice.
At her provocative words and remarks, Lee Ha-young looks back at her head-on with her expression crumpled.
Lee Ha-young said.

“Then what, what? There is no place for me anymore! There’s nothing I can do for you, what can I do?”

“…Stupid bitch.”

“…What?”

“A stupid bitch. You two were like this every day. What I know, only you two don’t know.”

“…What does that mean?”

Lee Hee-yeon has been watching the relationship between Jung Sung-min and Lee Ha-young from a distance for a long time.
She is the one who took care of all the reconciliation and mediation between the two of them when they quarreled.
That’s why she had something that only Lee Hee-yeon could see.

“My husband, you must be there. I need you to survive.”

“…What does that mean? Why do you need me?”

Lee Hee-yeon let out a sigh.
As she tried to explain with her own mouth why her husband needed another woman, she was quite upset.
But she told her that her first priority was her Jung Sung-min’s happiness rather than her own mood.

“Lee Ha-young. Listen carefully. You are not disturbing my husband. Rather, it is a necessity for her husband that you try to bring out his old self. Above all, absolutely.”

“…”

Lee Ha-young listens to Lee Hee-yeon with a blank expression.
Heeyeon Lee said.

“You know what? It’s because her husband’s appearance now is nothing different from Mr. Choi. My husband became more like him than anyone else to win over the son of a bitch. I became the monster itself to catch the monster.”

Jeong Seong-min became the same monster as Mr. Choi in order to surpass him.
Lee Hee-yeon took a moment to catch her breath and said.

“The only difference is that he has a stronger tenacity to protect his own. It is because of that tenacity to protect one’s own that I am still able to survive with alcohol without going crazy.”

He’s not crazy yet and he’s holding on to alcohol.
At those words, Lee Ha-young’s heart sank.
Involuntarily, her breathing quickened, and her tears welled up.

“That, no way… How strong is Seong-min… Now Seong-min is the king of the underworld. Nobody, nobody him-“

“You know nothing.”

Lee Hee-yeon catches Lee Ha-young’s muttering words.
She said.

“Do you know that the Savior and Mr. Choi were evil from the beginning? It became that way because everyone sat in power. How severe is the stress of sitting in the seat of power? Even now, a new organization is being created in Busan, and they are allied with the Yakuza. The triads in China are also not unusual. Did you know that Mr. Choi’s remnant formed a new organization? Sungmin has to face all the challenges. He has to become more vicious, more venomous to take on all those challenges. Under such pressure, in the end, he has no choice but to become the same as Mr. Choi.”

“…”

I didn’t know.
Now that he’s king, he knows he’ll have everything his way.
He thought that he would spend happy days in the families that each wife had built, taking care of the family he had regained.

“You, you guys can help. All of you are Seongmin’s girls. I am married and have children.”

Even so, wouldn’t Jung Sung-min have four wives?
He, who became more cruel than anyone else to become the king of the underworld, smiled blankly whenever he saw his daughter.
So I thought everything would be fine.

“Okay. So we all tried. To ease her husband’s heart. But that’s it. We think of Seong-min… That is, her husband… To the core as the ‘master’. Only the name has changed, but to us, the master is the eternal master. He is absolute, and His orders can never be disobeyed. It doesn’t change.”

The absolute difference between Lee Ha-young and other women.
While all other women were ‘conquered’ by Jeong Seong-min, Lee Ha-young could not be conquered in the end.
It just seemed like he was conquered, but in the end Lee Ha-young recognized Jung Sung-min as his lover.

“So… We have our limits. It’s something only you can do.”

“…”

Lee Ha-young organizes her thoughts with her head down again.
Then she said

“But, I ruined everything. Sungmin hates her own past. Because of what I did.”

“…Hate the past? No.”

Lee Hee-yeon’s confident expression.
She said through her tears.

“When your husband was dating you… Do you know how bright he was back then? Do you know how much of a dream he was? You and… Do you know what kind of future I dreamed of with you?”

Lee Hee-yeon recalled the day when she was watching the sea with Jung Sung-min in the distant past.
When she happened to be alone with her, she had heard of the bright future he envisioned.
At that time, Jung Sung-min’s expression, which spoke of the future, was shining more than anyone else.

“You can’t see that expression. It’s because I don’t know how much he loved his life and how much he lived gratefully for meeting you.”

Lee Hee-yeon, who has been a helper and reliable companion to Jung Sung-min and Lee Ha-young for a long time.
That’s why only Lee Hee-yeon knows the story of Jung Sung-min.

“Then call me back by any means. Bring back the person who loved your life more than anyone else. My husband… If even that memory disappears from my master, there really won’t be anything left. You, the master you ruined, return it by any means.”

Tears flowed down my cheeks in response to my intensified emotions.
Lee Hee-yeon wiped her tears with her sleeve and looked at Lee Ha-young, who lowered her head.
Now that she had said all she had to say, it was her turn to hear the answer.
Yet-

-Sue.

Lee Ha-young lifted her head, which had been lowered.
She said with a certain certainty on her face, with a determined expression as if she would not hesitate any longer.

“What should I do?”
