Chapter 661 – 661. Extended Leave (5)
Haha! I feel good… !”
In the dark evening after the sunset, drunken miners walked around laughing.
As they put their arms around each other’s shoulders, laugh haha, hoho and sing, they caused quite a bit of trouble to those around them.
But no one stopped those miners.
This territory was not that large, but it was a moderately large territory that was not small.
It was not only the miners who fell asleep after a day’s labor, but also the customers of other stores.
The fact that it was lively even after the sun went down and the evening time was over meant that the atmosphere of this manor was not so bad in a sense.
When they were happily singing a messy song that didn’t match the pitch or tempo, completely unrelated people they encountered while walking on the street jumped on the bandwagon.
“Oh. Did you drink some today too?”
“Drank!”
“How about the second?”
“Drink! Drink!”
Apparently, the men I met on the street were not familiar with the miners, so they seemed to be fairly close drinking buddies.
Far from ending here, Eun-hyeon was in a difficult situation as she was caught between the miners holding the 2nd angle.
The miners, who were in high spirits, didn’t care at all whether Eun-hyeon frowned or not, and just hummed and drunkenly.
If it was normal, Eunhyeon wouldn’t have been able to maintain a poker face like this, so he wouldn’t have wrinkled his face openly.
For several years, while she waited on Siete while learning the sword, her career did not go anywhere, as she accepted all of her drunkenness.
But now things are wrong.
“… It’s a big deal.”
Seeing the opportunity, he wanted to quickly run away and go see Belldandi, who was waiting for him, but these damned men wouldn’t let him go.
Eunhyeon was worried about what Belldandi was doing by now.
Maybe she’s worried about herself who hasn’t come in yet.
“…”
“Ugh, Eunhyun! What are you thinking while standing still!? Let’s go to the second car quickly!”
“Aren’t you thinking of her wife again?”
The miners giggled at her Eunhyun and said playfully.
“I really want it! Who has no wife!”
“My wife gets angry when she goes home early, asking why she came in so early…”
Some miners made fun of Eun-hyeon, who is the polar opposite of her wife, and some miners sent her eyes mixed with wonder and envy, wondering if a couple like that could ever exist.
“Hey. Let that guy go now.”
“Yes?”
“No. Captain, what are you talking about all of a sudden?”
When the foreman asked them to let go of Eun-hyeon, the miners made faces asking if they had heard it correctly.
“We have to keep running until someone collapses! You can’t fall like this!”
Whoever created such a culture, if Eun-hyeon finds out the culprit, he really wants to hit her in the head.
“Oh, let me go. I’m sending my daughter home, but what’s wrong with sending her alone?”
“Uh. Is that so?”
The foreman’s daughter was the only woman in this gang of men.
Her main job is to wash dirty miners’ clothes while doing her daily routine, or to make new charms every hour.
“Hmmmm. Then there is nothing you can do.”
And she has a very beautiful appearance, probably more like my mother than my father, the foreman.
“Oh, Dad too! I can go alone!”
Although she was now a grown woman, the foreman’s daughter, angry at her father’s treatment of her as a child, protested vehemently.
Contrary to her beautiful appearance, her extremely outspoken attitude and words seemed to resemble her father’s rambunctious disposition.
“No. How dangerous is this road at night?”
“That’s right. Miss! It’s dangerous to walk alone at night! All the men hanging around at this hour are wolves! You’d better ask him to get you to safety!”
At the words of the work foreman, the other drunk miners agreed that they were right.
Eunhyeon showed an absurd reaction.
“… I’m a man too, right?”
“You’re a married man, aren’t you?”
Eun-hyeon was momentarily at a loss for words.
It was because she was a little embarrassed that the foreman had only met him for a few days and trusted him enough to ask and entrust her daughter home.
However, in the eyes of the foreman, Eunhyun was a very sincere and responsible man.
Even though it was a short period of time, Eun-hyeon worked tirelessly to provide a stable foundation for her to live comfortably with her wife, leaving a deep impression on her.
Besides, since he was married, he also calculated that he would not lay a hand on his daughter.
Regardless of whether he was married or not, Eun-hyeon was obsessed with work as if he had no interest in women.
‘Well, according to rumors, my wife is also incredibly beautiful.’
He never thought that Eun-hyeon would be the scum of the world who would lay her hands on his daughter after having such a wife.
“Are you going to touch me?”
A miner’s short words, asked in a playful way, contained a lot of meaning.
The mood of the miners, who had been drunk and having fun, turned chilly in an instant and focused on Eun-hyeon.
“… It can’t be.”
Eun-hyeon smiled bitterly and raised his hands to express his intention to surrender.
The sudden change of atmosphere showed how much they valued the foreman and his daughter.
I realized once again that the bond between my colleagues at work is very strong.
“Then I will take you and I will go home.”
“Okay. Take good care of her daughter.”
Eun-hyeon escorted her work supervisor’s daughter to see her.
“Sorry… It’s just because of the uncles and dad…”
“No. It’s okay. I wanted to go in early too, but I got a good excuse.”
“Her wife must be very happy.”
“Yes… ? What is that all of a sudden… ?”
Eun-hyeon reacted in bewilderment to the unexpected words of the foreman’s daughter.
Why did the story of Belldandi come out all of a sudden?
“Because you have such a handsome and wonderful husband.”
“… It can’t be.”
Eunhyeon was dumbfounded and only smiled bitterly.
“I guess you don’t know?”
“What do you mean?”
“Eunhyeon-nim is popular among the village girls on the farm or mine side of this estate.”
“…”
It was an ambiguous compliment that made it difficult to answer what he was saying.
However, what the foreman said was that Eun-hyeon was not interested, it was the truth.
Rumors spread that she cared for her married wife so much that she never spilled water on her hands, and the amount of work she did alone and how much income she earned from it.
Besides, his good looks made him popular with the girls in the villages near the farms and mines.
Rumors quickly spread among the village girls about the appearance of a young man overflowing with masculinity with a strong physique.
“… Is that so.”
“You look like you don’t really care?”
“What… It actually is.”
Eun-hyeon’s reaction to hearing that rumors about him were strange was more calm than expected.
The reason Eun-hyeon can’t help but think that way is because she is aware that this world is a virtual world embodied with the power of Belldandi.
This is a space where fate is forced only by the flow that is good for Eun-hyeon.
Even Eun-hyeon did not know how the coercion worked and what kind of good results it produced, but she only had the idea that this might be one of the effects.
‘The fact that it is easy to win the favor of women is the correction effect of fate…’
Eunhyeon’s sentiment was just ridiculous.
He didn’t show a confident reaction to the foreman’s daughter, saying it was a matter of course, and he didn’t feel ashamed that it was an exaggerated rumor.
‘He’s a really strange man.’
If Eun-hyeon had no wife, he was also a man with such charm that made him think that if he hadn’t been married and married, he might have tried dashing once.
As I was walking with such regretful thoughts, the foreman’s daughter got caught on a rock on the floor and her legs got tangled, causing her body to fall forward.
“Ah… !”
She also lost her balance so easily on her dark night roads, probably because of her little drink.
As soon as Eun-hyeon heard her slender, high-pitched scream, he quickly supported her to prevent her from falling.
“Are you okay?”
“Ah yes. Thank you. Maybe it’s because I got drunk without even realizing it…”
“… Kid?”
Sensing the chill of the familiar voice, Eun-hyun’s body hesitated and hardened.
Hearing a voice cautiously, he turned his head in the direction he came from, and there was a beautiful blonde woman staring at Eun-hyeon.
“… Mr. Belldandy?”
Blinking her eyes and checking again, Belldandi was right.
Normally, he would have been happy to have met him.
‘Ah, it’s a big deal.’
Eunhyeon instinctively sensed that the current situation was the worst.
Now he had wrapped his arms around her waist as he supported the foreman’s daughter, who had accidentally fallen.
Eun-hyeon hurriedly removed her hand from the foreman’s daughter and rushed to Verdandi.
“How did you get here?”
“… The child didn’t come in until too late, so I came to find it myself. However…”
Belldandi narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms as she glanced at Eun-hyeon.
Even so, her voluptuous breasts are brought together as she crosses her arms, accentuating them even more.
For a moment, his gaze went there with a man’s instinct, but Eun-hyeon flinched at the gaze of her goddess who kept glancing at her.
“No way, the child really left me with another woman…”
“No. No. No. It’s not like that. It’s really a misunderstanding.”
Realizing what Belldandy was imagining after seeing the situation she had just faced, Eun-hyeon denied what he said before she finished.
Soon after, the foreman’s daughter hurriedly came to Eunhyeon’s aid.
“I think I can go alone from here. Thank you for taking me there.”
“… Are you really okay?”
“…”
The foreman’s daughter was at a loss for words for the moment and stared at Eun-hyeon.
For him, to her own arc, her best answer is ‘Oh, is that so. Bye then. See you tomorrow.’
She didn’t seem to realize that putting herself before her wife here was an act that offended her instead.
For the first time, the foreman’s daughter noticed the weakness of a man named Eun-hyeon.
Even if you don’t notice, there is not too much.
But as much as she could, she kept that thought out of her face and kept her smile.
“Sure. My house is close to here. Then see you at the mine tomorrow.”
When the foreman’s daughter hurriedly left, only Eunhyeon and Belldandy were left on the dark night road.
“…”
“…”
No conversation took place between the two.
It was Eunhyeon who felt the weight of the silence.
“Come on, Mr. Belldandi. I really have a different idea…”
“Whoa. Know.”
Belldandi let out a small sigh and replied.
The goddess herself knew best that Eun-hyeon was not a bad guy playing around with other women over herself.
She sighed over her own pitiful feelings for not believing in her grace for a moment, possessed by the voices of her other wives, telling her husband to be good at guarding her husband.
“Me too… You were stupid.”
“Yes? What do you mean?”
“It is nothing. By the way, it’s the first time I’ve come this far alone, so my legs hurt a little.”
“Shall I pick you up?”
“Hug me.”
Belldandi, who at first was shy but enjoyed it, was now proudly asking for skinship.
Seeing Belldandi, who was slightly relieved, Eun-hyeon let out a sigh of relief as she embraced the goddess.
As soon as she returned home, Eun-hyeon went straight into the bathroom and wiped her body with the water she had prepared in advance.
While she was washing her body in the bathroom, which was built so that she could take a bath every night in the poor environment of the thatched house, Belldandy burst open the door and entered the bathroom.
“… Mr. Belldandy?”
The current goddess, who is only a human body, was in a state of nakedness, not wearing a single thread.
“I went to do laundry today, and the women in the village said that. Husbands don’t know what they’re doing outside, so their wives should take good care of them.”
“… Yes?”
Eun-hyeon was embarrassed because she couldn’t understand what she was talking about.
“Aren’t I the child’s wife now? So…”
Belldandy’s slender hand caressed Eun-hyeon’s body and went down little by little.
The touch was very sticky and sensual, to the point where Embarrassed Eunhyeon couldn’t help but respond.
“I understood the meaning of that word today, and I felt the need for it.”
Belldandy’s soft bare skin touched and overlapped with Eunhyun’s skin.
“I guess I’ll have to take good care of the child.”
