Chapter 91 – Village Chief (Sunok) – The Young Master’S Homecoming

* Village Chief (Sunok) – The Young Master’s Homecoming (6)

The story stretched into the night. It was like taffy, pulling and pulling, which was stressful, but knowing that appeasing these people would increase my family’s chances of survival, I talked to them as if they were my long-lost grandchildren. It seemed that calling my family pets from the start had worked, as they didn’t bring up anything that would upset me, only occasionally asking if they were treating them well. However, the fact that Seo-woo had confessed to me was a clear landmine. Ha-eun’s precarious personality was also a no-go. The only thing I could talk about was Yeo-won’s mother, so I sarcastically said, “Our cow is doing a great job,” which made them burst into laughter on the spot.

Sigh…

Haaaah~!

I suppressed the sigh that was about to escape and chuckled, sipping alcohol among the old folks. Seeing this, I realized that my family might receive money or orders from these people, but they didn’t really know them. If they did, Seo-woo wouldn’t have confessed to me. Yeo-won’s mother seemed to have some idea, but that was about it. The only one who truly knew the village’s identity was the bald guy who was filming the USB.

The USB…

Hmm.

Is there any need to be bound by that now?

The story is settled anyway.

Considering that I came all this way because of that one thing, my life is really…

Anyway, although they were old people who were rude and treated outsiders or people from the outside world like animals, they were harmless once you got to know them. That’s because their essence was “people who want to get close to their grandson.” They weren’t related by blood, but they actually treated me like their grandson, and they were so happy every time they talked to me that it was overwhelming. Moreover, when evening came and I said I would go back tomorrow, they grabbed my pants and shouted, “Stay longer, aaaaaaah~!” It was so loud I almost died from my ears falling off. Suddenly, the talk turned to a festival, and it seemed they were going to cause a commotion in the village because of my homecoming. However, there was no way such a festival could happen overnight, and if I got stuck here, I’d have to stay for a few more days, so I cut them off by saying, “I’ll come back as soon as possible, so please call me when the festival is ready.”

“Young Master.”

“Oh, Baldy.”

“…………”

After the stories and appeasement were roughly over, I was sitting on the veranda outside the paper door, enjoying the scent of the trees, when Jang Mun-sang, Moon-young’s father, came. A bald head shining in the moonlight was a man who fit the word self-illuminating. Normally, I wouldn’t have said the word “baldy” in front of him, but I was a bit drunk, so the words just came out.

“Are you drunk? Your tongue is loose.”

I was actually drunk.

Even if a drunkard said he wasn’t drunk, no one would believe him.

“I’m drunk.”

“If you’re saying you’re drunk yourself, it seems you’re still in your right mind.”

“Why? You got something to say? If not, can you leave me alone? I want to get some air by myself.”

“There was something I was going to tell you earlier but didn’t.”

Was it that thing from earlier?

I had been bothered by it.

“May I have your ear?”

“You don’t have to be so formal with me.”

Wondering what it was, I offered my ear. The baldy slowly approached, put his lips to my ear, and spoke carefully. Cutting out the preamble and getting straight to the point was no different from when we first met.

“That is…”

He opened his mouth indifferently, as if he didn’t have such feelings. I was curious about what he was going to say, but it wasn’t exactly pleasant.

“I think you’ve already noticed the women who went down from the village and are hanging around you, Young Master. You used my daughter to find out.”

“Yeah. Is that a problem?”

“That’s not a problem, but I’m telling you this because I want you to be careful.”

“About what?”

“The women who went down from the village as merchandise are indeed there to get your seed, as you think. But things have moved faster than expected. They were sent down in case you didn’t return to the village, but since you came to the village yourself, they will openly reveal their identities this time.”

I wondered if it mattered whether they revealed their identities or not, but I swallowed my breath because his next words upset me.

“Among the elders who didn’t attend today’s meeting, there is a family acting suspiciously. They are probably the ones who will harm you, Young Master.”

“What are you talking about? Why are you being a pain to me? Wasn’t the village screwed if it didn’t have my bloodline?”

“I don’t know about that either. Last time, the Madam jokingly asked if any other family was thinking of taking over the village chief position, but everyone shuddered. However, I noticed that one person’s eyes were shining at that time, and after investigating, I came to this conclusion.”

I didn’t understand how the story was unfolding. I had just appeased the old folks to ensure my family’s safety, and now I was in danger.

“Anyway, there’s a suspicious family. My body is in danger. But what’s the connection between the whores who went down from the village and are clinging to me and me?”

“There might be merchandise acting as a stooge for that family near you, Young Master. I don’t know if they’re after your seed or your life, or why they’re using merchandise, but I wanted you to know.”

“So what do you want me to do? If they reveal their identities, should I turn my back and run away?”

“No, I think it would be better if you embraced them all and made them talk with the power of your lower body. From what I heard from Moon-young, I thought that wouldn’t be too difficult, so I’m taking the liberty of telling you this. It was also difficult to say this in front of other people, and the timing was good, so it came out together. If I had said this in front of the elders, I would have been a punching bag.”

“Yeah, that’s right… They would have been mad, saying what kind of order is that to give to someone like a grandson…”

“In the first place, I’m not in a position to make such a request.”

But you. What did you hear from Moon-young? A father who talks indifferently about his daughter’s sex life is very unpleasant. If I were this guy’s daughter, I would have been 100% twisted.

“Do those people know?”

“They probably do. Even though they look like that, they have snakes in their bellies. They’re out of touch with the times, so they show so-called ‘kkondae’ tendencies, like old politicians on TV, but they’re not the type to sit back and watch when it comes to matters concerning you, Young Master. Even if I don’t say anything, they’re probably doing something under the surface.”

“So, there are people who are willing to turn all those people into enemies to harm me?”

“I’m also bewildered by what I’m saying.”

I thought of the female soldiers stationed outside, whether they were real or fake. This place is beyond the reach of this country’s laws. If something happened, it could be easily eliminated physically. One of the reasons why they are still active in an organized way despite so many gangsters is that. But who on earth would do something that would turn all the influential people working in such a place into enemies?

“Sigh…”

“I just told you in case.”

When I unknowingly made a bitter sound, the baldy slowly backed away.

“You can just go about your daily life as usual, Young Master. The elders’ mood has improved a lot with this incident, and they know the usefulness of the three sisters, so they won’t touch them carelessly. If someone ignores your request and touches the sisters, it’s not entirely impossible, but they also don’t want to upset you, so you can rest assured.”

“What do you mean rest assured when you’re talking in a way that I don’t know whether to rest assured or not?”

I wondered if he was doing it on purpose, but his attitude showed that he didn’t seem to be aware of it, and he hesitated. He was big, but he was a man who became infinitely small in front of me. Is it because I’m that trash’s son?

“Ahem.”

As if he wanted to change the subject, he coughed once and sat down next to me.

“Are you going back right away tomorrow?”

“Why? Are you going to stop me?”

“It’s a personal wish, but I wanted to have a slow drink with you alone, Young Master. It seems impossible this time as well.”

“Did you say that last time too? When I went with Ha-eun, that is.”

“Yes.”

I understood that feeling. He said he had a long relationship with my father, so he must have various feelings about me. Thinking about it that way, it was true that I felt a bit sad to leave like this.

“Then, can’t we just go outside the village and drink together for a day? The reason I want to go down right away is because I want to see my family. After spending some leisurely time with the women in my house, there’s nothing else to do, so we can go drink together.”

“Is that okay?”

“There’s no reason why it wouldn’t be. There are things I want to ask about that guy too.”

“I see.”

The baldy scratched his head, which was shining in the moonlight, and seemed to be pondering something. I thought he was just going to talk about my father while drinking, but I wondered what he was thinking about.

“Then, I’ll invite you to a special place, Young Master. I’d like to drink there, have women around, and have fun with the members of the organization. I’m sure our underlings will be happy too.”

“A special place?”

“Your father… When Moon-san was alive, he gathered our members and created a place where he gathered women according to his taste… um…”

“If it’s a place where you drink with women, isn’t it just a hostess bar?”

“Well… I don’t know how to express it…”

This time, the baldy stroked his chin and pondered, as if choosing his words.

“What did that trash do to make it like that?”

“It’s hard to express in words. But one thing is certain, Moon-san really liked to break strong women since he was young. That perverted bar is a work of our members and him, I guess.”

The more I heard, the less I understood.

In other words, isn’t it a perverted bar mixed with that guy’s taste?

“You can bring your acquaintances. There’s plenty of room and plenty of women. We’ll treat you well.”

“Acquaintances…”

“You and I will use the VIP table alone, and the others will enjoy themselves a little further away, but if that’s okay, you can bring as many as you want.”

VIP, a word that is far from me.

A dangerous feeling was emanating.

But my groin was also throbbing.

I didn’t want to admit it, but if it was a place made with that trash’s taste, I would surely enjoy it too. Except for what he did to Ha-eun, that guy and I had some similar tastes. But acquaintances, I don’t have that many friends. It’s not like I have to bring them, so I don’t have to worry about it, but…

‘That’s right.’

At that moment, one person came to mind.

I had caused an incident because of Moon-young before.

‘Should I bring Yoo-dong hyung?’

It was my subordinate who suddenly threatened him, and I should apologize in my own way. I still want to be close to that hyung. He’s a person who likes women, as you can tell just by looking at him, so he would like this kind of bar.

“Okay, I’ll contact you as soon as I get back home. It’ll probably be about two days.”

“Yes, I’ll be waiting.”

At my words, the baldy straightened his back and slowly got up from his seat. He had a satisfied smile, showing that he was confident in his hospitality. I didn’t know what kind of women he had gathered to be so confident, but seeing him so openly happy made me curious.

But family service comes first.

Somehow, I felt like I had become a bad adult.
