Chapter 142 – Chapter 142 Chaebol
It’s the weekend.
Normally, I would still be lying on the bed and asking for a sweet sleep.
I went out early in the morning and took the bus to the nursery school.
“Haaam.”
I was falling asleep as I entrusted myself to the bus seat, which looked more cozy and comfortable than ever, and was bathed in the warm sunlight beating down from the window.
His eyes blinked and his vision blurred over and over again.
The distance was closer than I thought, so I just took the bus, but I shouldn’t have done that.
I should have asked for a car instead of turning down Dad’s favor.
Just before falling asleep with regrets of this and that, an announcement broadcasting announcing the next stop came out.
“Ah…”
My mind flashed.
I hurriedly rang the bell.
After a while, the bus came to a complete stop and the door opened.
“Stop it!”
As soon as I got off, I straightened out and stretched, so I felt like I had escaped to some extent.
I took out my phone and opened the map app.
“We can go on like this…”
I don’t know why the nursery school was built on a high place.
If I only had a car, I would have left myself in a soft car seat and climbed up.
Ha. The more I thought about it, the more I could only sigh.
It’s already spilled water. I had no choice but to walk up the slope along the main road.
Again, I regretted the decision I made in the past and moved on.
After passing all the steep slopes, we arrived at the orphanage.
But strangely, the front of the orphanage was full of people.
One held a microphone with the name of the broadcasting company on it, and the other carried a large camera on his shoulder, taking pictures of people holding the microphone.
Finish. A black foreign car pulled up in front of them.
“Come! Come! Come take a picture!”
People moved in haste.
The back door opened and a boy who seemed to be my age stepped out, holding out her microphone as I captured him on camera.
I interviewed for a while with a nice smile on my face to see if I was familiar with this kind of thing, and then I started pushing the microphone away.
He said that he did not come here to do an interview, but to volunteer, so the interview would stop here.
“Hmm…”
I kept my eyes open right next to it, and I thought with a sigh.
It was clear that he was the son of the first company that Dad had talked about yesterday.
It is very different from the pictures I found on the internet.
When I saw it in the picture, I was pretty handsome, but when I saw it in real life… How to say it. Just ugly
My name is Jaehyuk Kwak.
He is the eldest son of the vice chairman of Cheil Group.
Kwak Jae-hyeok passed the reporters and entered the nursery school.
I, too, passed them and tried to go inside, and the reporters looked at me and whispered.
“Who is this?”
“Is this the first time I’ve seen you?”
“Well… He must be someone who does volunteer work.”
I was treated like a good person who comes here every week to serve, and I came inside without any restraint.
That’s why it’s better not to be exposed to the surface.
If I go up to the surface and sell my face, the fact that I am organizing a harem will spread widely and I will not be able to avoid criticism.
Even if the parties reached an agreement, ethically, it’s full of people who just don’t like it and bite them.
“Haa… Fuck. I don’t want to.”
It’s not long after you go inside. I was able to meet Kwak Jae-hyeok, who entered before me.
He leaned against the wall and picked up a pack of cigarettes, as if he didn’t even know I was coming.
“This is a non-smoking area?”
“Huh?”
I pulled out a cigarette, put it in my mouth, and took the lighter. I immediately stopped him.
“What are you again?”
It was completely different from the one I saw at the entrance earlier.
I wonder if it has a strong feeling of a raw lamb.
“Person.”
“Ha… I’m going crazy.”
I threw a joke, but the kid seemed to be serious, roughly throwing a cigarette on the floor and coming towards me.
“Do you want to look around?”
“No. I still want to live a lot.”
When he replied shamelessly, Kwak Jae-hyeok let out a laugh as if he was dumbfounded.
“What do you believe in me?”
That’s what I want to ask.
He looked a bit tall, but his body was really weak, probably because he hadn’t exercised at all.
I feel sorry for my limbs, which seem like they would break if I hit them, so I want to exercise them.
No Is it natural for you to be nasty because you have a backing that is the best company?
“Just. This is how I am.”
Even though I didn’t particularly like kids, I hated trash that smoked in places where kids were.
Because of this, I feel a bit sharp without knowing it.
“Wait for a sec…”
When he saw me teasing me with his head lost in fear of not knowing who he was, Kwak Jae-hyeok tilted his head and opened his mouth as if he remembered something he had forgotten.
“Lee Ji-hoon…? Is that right? Anyway, is your name Lee Ji-hoon?”
“I know?”
“Oh… I guess that’s right.”
Kwak Jae-hyeok smiled and put his arm around me.
“My father said there’s nothing wrong with being close with you.”
“Okay?”
“Eh. I heard you’re going out well?”
“Yes. But not as much as your house.”
The house was bigger than the company his father ran.
The problem is that there is a variable called country.
To be honest, I was able to bring down the First Group on my own without any exaggeration.
The assets that can be operated right away have reached 100 trillion, but can’t it be that much?
“Kuh-kuh. That’s right. Hey. Isn’t that my name?”
“Isn’t it Kwak Jae-hyuk?”
“Yeah. I know it well. And it’s nice to see you proud in front of me. You.”
I always meet people crawling in front of me, and even though I know who I am, I seem to look strange with my shoulders open.
“Let’s be friends. Huh?”
“Report.”
“Why. If we get to know each other, there will be nothing to be afraid of in Korea.”
“Why?”
Do I really need to? I already have nothing to be afraid of.
“What?”
“No. Nothing. Let’s go in first.”
If you come to serve, you must serve. I can’t talk about it here forever.
At the words of going in, Kwak Jae-hyeok’s expression rotted.
Is it that I don’t want to do that? I do the same though.
*
Dad said.
Get to know Kwak Jae-hyeok once.
Make him his first friend.
But.
‘Dad… I’m sorry.’
I apologized to my father in my heart.
That would be the case, too, because Kwak Jae-hyeok doesn’t do what he’s told to do, and he’s just staring at his smartphone and playing.
“Hey. Move this.”
“Huh? Why me?”
“Didn’t you ask for a transfer?”
“So?”
His head hurt when he asked back, “I really don’t know.”
“There are still reporters out there. Is that okay?”
“Haha. It’s okay. It’s okay. I can’t say much about this facility because it’s supported by our group anyway. That’s why you don’t have to show your face to the reporters.”
My head was spinning when I said that confidently.
I know I don’t want to do it, but there are benefits to be gained from it, and since I kept doing things that I could have done if I came to serve, I couldn’t see it favorably.
“You just play too. Even if we don’t do it, the people who used to do it will take care of it.”
Kwak Jae-hyeok says that and looks at his smartphone screen.
“Tsk…”
If you care, it’s only hard for me.
I just decided to treat Kwak Jae-hyeok as someone who didn’t have one and do my best at what I was told to do.
After moving the request, I took the children from the orphanage to the playground and played soccer.
Regardless of whether it was a boy or a girl, everyone jumped out and dozens of people rushed around in a small ball, which made it feel kind of cute.
“Ira…”
He didn’t particularly like children, but he didn’t hate them either.
It would be even more so if it were my child.
Rather, I wanted very much to have a child with my blood.
There was a time when he did manual labor without hesitation to earn money before returning.
At that time, my whole body was screaming in pain because I did something I was not used to.
After finishing the work with a sick body, he was on his way home, trudging heavy steps.
Nearby, a child ran up to the old man who was returning home with me, carrying his exhausted body, and held him in his arms.
And even today, you said you had a hard time. The look of a child brightly welcoming you to come.
Seeing the mother of the child and her wife, who followed behind her child, smiling broadly and welcoming her husband who returned from hard work, made her want to get married and have a child of hers. I couldn’t bear to express this feeling in words.
“I want it.”
Saved her wife, but she really saved a lot.
The problem is that there are no women who can have children.
My girls were still young, and I had a lot of things I wanted to do, but my desire to have children doesn’t allow me to limit my life.
“Brother! Soccer! Let’s play soccer!”
A child came running up to me and started pulling me by the hand.
If I endure, I can endure enough, but my body was naturally moving to the child’s lead.
I didn’t know before.
Back then when I had no room in my heart and was busy getting angry at the noise of crying coming from all directions.
“Okay…Let’s do it.”
I also had my immature childhood, and the eyes of the adults looking at me were full of loveliness.
My body is still young, but my mind is approaching my mid-thirties, so I kick a ball between the kids.
Even before I came here, I was filled with annoyance at the thought of having to play with the kids, but after coming here, it was more fun than I thought.
Kids are cute too.
Later… I thought it would be okay to come and see Nayoung.
