Chapter 113 – Lee Junseo (Son) – Commotion Always Comes Suddenly (2)
I should have warned my mother not to speak so flippantly, but my throat soon tightened, and the warning wouldn’t come out. I became more alert after hearing from Jang Mun-sang that there might be a traitor among the girls who came down from the village. There was no need to show off how close my family and I were to others, revealing my weakness.
“Junseo, do we have a guest? Should I get some juice?”
“Hey, Cow. Don’t do that. You don’t have to act in front of the young master. I heard everything this time. You guys must be having a hard time, huh? Pretending to be a family while living with the young master every day, 365 days a year. If it were me, I’d be so nervous I’d die.”
“Ah…”
Yuna-rin, oblivious, greets my family. It seems the genuine closeness between my family and me isn’t apparent, as she treats it like an act. Heo Cho-yeon and Han Ah, right next to her, are no different, not hiding their looks of treating my family as inferiors.
If that’s the case, then among the women who approached me, only Moon-young and Lee Se-rim know the true relationship between my family and me. That blonde bitch was working with the bald guy, so it would be strange if she didn’t know, and she didn’t hide that she was in charge of the entire club, so it must be true. I wanted to apologize for the violent sex that made her pass out last time, which is a bit of a shame. It would have been better if she had come herself.
Could it be that she sent them to have me judge them directly?
Are these girls my enemies or not…
But how am I supposed to know?
Damn it.
“Young master?”
“Ah…”
The three of them, who had been cautiously watching me since I came home, now focus their attention on me, seeing my confusion. Even Seo-woo and Ha-eun are visibly uncomfortable, unsure of what to do, so it was up to me to take charge. We were planning to have a quiet day as a family, but it immediately became awkward.
“You three, take Yeo-won to the master bedroom and get your piercings done. I’m warning you in advance, don’t hurt her, and don’t play around, okay? I don’t like people messing with my things.”
“Yes, we understand~!”
“Did you hear me?”
“Tch.”
Why are you clicking your tongue there?
Were you planning to mess around if I hadn’t warned you?
Even while getting the piercings done?
“Hey.”
“I’m sorry. I’ll correct myself.”
Han Ah lowered her head and apologized to me. She was polite to me, but she couldn’t treat my mother the same way, not hiding her discomfort. From their perspective, my mother isn’t the one who raised me, but rather a slave who has been taking care of me, so it’s understandable, but I realized that commodities have a strange habit of looking down on others. Even in the club, there was a subtle atmosphere of reluctance when a regular student spoke to them, and this incident confirmed that it wasn’t just my imagination.
“Yeo-won.”
“Yes, Master.”
Creepy.
My mother changed her title to match the sudden call. Thanks to that, my lower body became itchy again, but I held back and spoke in a commanding tone, trying my best to act.
“I told you yesterday, right? She came to pierce your nipples. Go to the master bedroom with them and get it done. Call me if anything happens.”
“Understood. Guests, shall we go this way?”
“Okay…”
Han Ah, carrying a bag that seemed to contain tools, led the way. Heo Cho-yeon and Yuna-rin followed behind her. They still seemed uncomfortable being guided by Yeo-won, but they didn’t do anything foolish, probably because I had said something, and they went into the master bedroom and locked the door.
“What a bunch of crazy bitches came this morning…”
“Sis seems to be enjoying it, though.”
“She’s really out of her mind, isn’t she?”
“You guys shouldn’t be talking.”
“Hmph… They completely ignored us and went inside. I understand being annoyed, but aren’t they making it too obvious?”
“Annoyed?”
“Isn’t it obvious?”
Seo-woo, as if resolving my question, crossed her legs and scratched her pajama pants with her finger. Ha-eun, annoyed but not intending to confront them, laid her head on Seo-woo’s thigh and explained their inner feelings.
“Those girls, they were supposed to be sold to expensive, good places, right? But they couldn’t get sold, so they’re seething inside, and then they got assigned to you, and they’re in the middle of a chicken race, right? But we, who have nothing to do with your village, are with you all day, so they’re angry. They already seem so proud, so it’s obvious how they see us, isn’t it?”
“To them, you’re like a winning trophy.”
“We don’t want to fight either, so we’ll stay quiet, but I don’t want to face them one-on-one. They seem like the type to slap you right away. And then blame it on us? A villainess? Ahem, was that too much?”
“They were so docile in front of me.”
“Are those docile bitches the type to do such crazy things as a punishment game?”
“We’re docile in front of you too, you idiot.”
Are those docile people the type to not leave when someone wants to use the bathroom and then get their faces slapped? What the sisters said wasn’t wrong, so I nodded and pretended to understand, but I felt strange about the sudden visit. I was planning to relax with the three of us, but an endless feeling of restlessness washed over me. I guess I’m a sensitive type who doesn’t like other people entering my space.
“You’re going to send them away right away, right?”
“Why would I keep them around for long?”
“Then that’s fine.”
The sisters also didn’t seem too happy about them, so they changed their positions, placing me in the center and sitting on either side of me, turning on the TV. It’s kind of funny that this is happening, with three unfamiliar women piercing Yeo-won’s nipples in the master bedroom. The three of us smiled wryly and even tapped our feet restlessly.
‘It didn’t take that long when I pierced Seo-woo’s…’
Thinking it would be over soon, the three of us tapped our feet. At first, the rhythm wasn’t consistent, but then, as if we all had the same thought, we started tapping in unison, matching the sounds.
‘Should I send a text while we wait…’
I got Lee Se-rim’s number at the club room. I also got all the club girls’ numbers by force, so it’s a bit much to say I got them. They all had their eyes glazed over as they put their numbers into my phone, so I’ve only texted a few people, and Lee Se-rim is the first to call. They call me on their own, so I blocked them, but even though I blocked them, they call almost every day, making me wonder if these guys even intend to hide their identities. There’s no need to hide their identities anymore, and because of that, my blocked message box is piling up, so they’ll probably become more aggressive from now on.
‘First, I should thank her for sending people… and also apologize for what happened at the hotel, and talk about how I’ll distinguish people in the future…’
I know better than anyone that I’m an incompetent guy who can’t do anything on my own. Even though she sent people, I can’t help but suspect if it was a genuine apology, and I need to ask directly why she sent three people. To understand her intentions, I tapped my fingers and sent a text, but unlike Lee Se-rim’s usual quick replies, there was no response. Instead, the master bedroom door clicked open.
“Huh…?”
I put my phone down and looked up to see my mother and the three girls coming out.
“It’s done.”
“That was faster than I thought?”
“It’s just piercing and cleaning up. I gave her the medicine and wrote down how to take care of the pierced skin.”
“Yeo-won, how is it? Did it turn out pretty?”
“See for yourself.”
My mother lifted the dress she was wearing with her mouth, pulling it up to her chest. Her nipples, with disinfectant and cotton pads, were visible, and it seemed like there was some bleeding. Han Ah had put a gold ring piercing on it, which she seemed to have prepared personally, showing off that the piercing was done well.
“How is it?”
“It’s much better than I imagined. I’ll give you the name tag I made and a new piercing later.”
“Thank… Ugh~?!”
“This chest is amazing! What do you eat to grow like this?!”
“Hyaang?! Ahh!”
Even I was proud of my mother Yeo-won’s chest. The piercing made it feel even more depraved, and a satisfied smile naturally appeared, but that atmosphere was quickly broken. Knowing it was my possession, that idiot who only knows how to cosplay pulled on the piercing carelessly. Her newly pierced and sensitive nipples stood up, and she retreated as if running away, but Yuna-rin, oblivious to my gaze, continued to fondle them.
“That idiot, after having a drink, isn’t she worse than me?”
“I understand she wants to appeal to the young master, but that’s going to cause big trouble later…”
Thanks to that, the other two apologized to me and were looking for a chance to escape, but…
In the meantime, my phone in my pajama pants vibrated with an alert.
‘Huh?’
Lee Se-rim’s reply came, but it was just one word.
「I didn’t send Yuna-rin」
