Chapter 493 – It’s Easy to Become Friends
On the day we went on a trip, my family left early in the morning.
This was because I agreed to Chairman Ron’s suggestion that it be okay to have breakfast when we got there.
It may not be at the level of a dinner party, but the chef was excellent, so I had high expectations.
‘What do you want to eat today?’
I had put my worries about Swan aside and just looked forward to what this morning would bring.
—————————-
‘I can’t wait to find out!’
It was Swann’s fault that President Ron had asked John and Casey to go on a trip to the beach together last night.
She had asked for the favor first because she wanted to have as much contact with Lane as possible and find out his secrets.
Her grandfather, who loved her granddaughter, said that he would definitely fulfill her request, and fortunately, she was leaving for the trip tomorrow.
During the party, I didn’t have much time, so I didn’t have much contact, but it’s different when I go on a personal trip.
Since we are the same age, we can have a continuous conversation with him without difficulty and find gaps.
With that thought in mind, Swan gathered his clothes and wanted to find out his secret as soon as possible.
‘You can check it when you come wearing a swimsuit.’
There was a reason why she deliberately chose the sea. If she goes to the sea, she has to wear a swimsuit because she has to go into the water.
And she knew that most men take their tops off when they wear swimsuits because they don’t like the discomfort.
Being able to fully see her upper body, which was visible due to the bullet marks, was the reason she chose the sea as her travel destination.
Of course, he might not be a masked man. But her senses were speaking.
He must have a close relationship with the Masked Man.
‘Or it’s not.’
Or I was just sad. It’s just a simple check that doesn’t do her any harm.
When traveling, there are more security guards, but since it is private property, I feel much more free.
If not for him, all he had to do was enjoy the freedom he couldn’t feel because he was stuck at home.
‘I felt like I was going to die from frustration.’
The ban on going out had not yet been lifted, but since he was going with two talented mercenaries, his grandfather easily gave permission.
“The Chairman has arrived.”
“Let’s get down.”
While she was alone thinking about this and that, she heard that she had arrived and got out of her car holding her grandfather’s hand.
When I got out of the car, I saw a villa on private land in front of me, and Lane’s family, who had arrived first, was looking at us and waving.
‘Show me your secret.’
As she made eye contact with Lane, who was quietly looking at her in comfortable clothes from a distance, she thought of uncovering his secret.
————————–
‘I was suspicious.’
When I made eye contact with Swan, who was walking towards me after getting out of the car, I instinctively realized that she was suspicious of me.
Otherwise, there is no reason for him to show such eager eyes to me when it has only been a day since I officially saw his face.
I could understand if she was trying to seduce me because I liked her, but judging by her actions, it wasn’t like that.
Eyes that look at people inquisitively just to satisfy one’s curiosity.
When I realized that I did not have the eyes of a girl in love with a crush, I thought about being careful, but quickly gave up that thought.
‘There is no need to be careful.’
There is no evidence anyway. Even if you find out, if you just play it off, no one will know.
Besides, I wasn’t that interested in a woman named Swan to begin with.
My parents are in a much more dangerous situation because of that bitch, so why should they care?
If she hadn’t been left alone because she came from a good family and was close to her parents, she would have been treated the same as Cynthia.
‘Consider yourself fortunate to have a good family.’
No matter how powerful a country is, it cannot move freely as long as it is limited by its parents.
If it weren’t for my parents, I wouldn’t have come to the United States in the first place.
As I was waiting quietly with that thought in mind, Chairman Ron and Swan quickly approached and greeted me.
“I saw you yesterday, but I’m seeing you again today.”
“Hello.”
After being greeted by the two, the mother quickly went in and went to sleep because she was hungry.
“That temperament cannot be corrected even after having a child.”
“Because that’s her charm.”
“Yes, it’s always bright, and it’s nice to see.”
Chairman Ron and his father started to walk in slowly, talking to each other, and I was about to follow them.
“Hello?”
Suddenly, Swan came closer to me and stuck out her face to say hello.
“Yes, hello.”
I already said hello, so I don’t know why I’m doing it again, but since I did it, they accepted it.
When I received my greeting with a nervous expression, Swann stood next to me and guided me to the villa at my own pace.
“You probably don’t know the way here, so I’ll tell you.”
“Uh… It’s okay.”
“You might be confused because there are quite a few rooms.”
As Swann said, her villa was not as big as the mansion she lived in, but it was quite large compared to her ordinary house.
However, since I had the help of the system and had already marked the inside with a map, I didn’t want to risk her getting lost, so she said no and said she would guide me.
‘You’re too active.’
I thought she had a prickly personality, so I didn’t think she would approach me aggressively, but strangely she stuck to me.
“Yes, I understand.”
I knew that even if she refused anyway, she would still stick around, so I just gave her permission to do it.
Rather than having an annoying argument, I can just give permission and then disappear when I want.
I could make sure she never found me at any time just by using her physical abilities or items.
As I entered the villa with a wooden exterior, I saw an interior with marble flooring.
Only the exterior was made of wood, and the interior seemed to be made of concrete and steel bars for durability.
After taking a look around the fairly spacious interior, Swan next to me explained it to me.
“This villa was built for me by her grandfather 10 years ago.”
“10 years ago?”
“Yes, I said I wanted a villa for my birthday, so he built it for me.”
“Huh…”
It was 10 years ago when she was 12 years old. My grandfather built one for me right away when he said he wanted to own a villa at such a young age.
When I was young, I thought I did everything I wanted to do without lacking anything, but the scale of being truly rich was different.
‘It’s amazing that at the age of 12, it’s not just a villa, but a villa with an ocean.’
Still, I didn’t feel envious. If I want to, I can use my abilities to make a lot of money.
He is just satisfied because he is greedy for women rather than greedy for money. If he had been greedy for money, he would have drugged and manipulated all politicians.
‘If I’m going to do such a bothersome thing, I’ll just get one more woman.’
It was more helpful for me to go to a politician or a rich man, secretly give him a brainwashing potion, and then find a pretty woman to give orders.
These days, it’s hard to find women I like because I’ve become more sophisticated, but I don’t have time to spend on those things.
Afterward, I arrived at the restaurant and ate with my family. The taste was perfect because the chef from the mansion also came with us during the trip.
“Okay then, let’s all go play. I have work to do, so I’ll go later, so you can play first.”
After finishing the meal and drinking a cup of tea, Chairman Ron told everyone he was free to say whatever he wanted.
Just as I was about to follow his words and go to the beach with his parents.
“Jinseok, mom is going to go for a walk with dad, so she can play nice with Swan.”
Suddenly, Mom was going to take her Dad for a walk, and she said that me and Swan should play first.
“Then I’ll take a walk too.”
“No, go and play.”
When I said I would play together because it would be uncomfortable for the two of us to play together, my mother firmly told me to let them play on their own.
Since it was such a nice villa, I couldn’t help but nod at the thought of him wanting to spend time alone with his dad.
If I make a mistake and interfere, my mother’s resentment will come to me and I will receive a very uncomfortable look.
“Okay.”
“That’s nice.”
When she nodded and said she understood, my mom smiled brightly and told me that I did well.
‘If I did it wrong, it would have been more uncomfortable.’
Thinking that I had successfully overcome the potentially uncomfortable situation, I immediately walked towards my private room.
Since I was planning on swimming at the beach, I needed to change into a swimsuit.
“When you’re all dressed, will you please wait for me at the entrance?”
“I understand.”
Before parting ways with Swann, she told me to wait downstairs after I finished changing.
I said this because I thought I would get changed faster than her who had to prepare for this and that.
‘It’s easier to just go alone…’
I thought about ignoring it and going out to play alone, but I didn’t know what else I would hear from my mom, so I decided to wait.
If you start nagging a woman for leaving her alone, no one can stop you.
Do not wear a top. If you’re trying to go swimming, and you’re wearing a top, it’ll get in your way.
As I was waiting at the entrance wearing only my pants and taking off my upper body, Swan appeared sooner than expected.
She appeared wearing a white bikini and a thin gown that completely revealed her body.
Because her skin color was so white, it suited her quite well.
Her breasts were huge enough to burst out of a bikini, her beautifully flowing waist was quite thin, and her hips was so big that it could be called western.
As I was scanning and evaluating her body, her swan came up to me and asked.
“How do you feel?”
“It’s pretty.”
“Thank you, then shall we go?”
Although I was surprised by her more beautiful body than I expected, I pretended nothing was wrong, exchanged formal greetings, and then got in the car together and headed to the beach.
“So, how old is Lane?”
“I’m 24 years old.”
“Oh? “Are you older than I thought?”
“How old did you think you were?”
“I thought he was 20 at most.”
I nodded when she said that I looked much younger, perhaps because of the facial differences between Asians and Westerners.
Not only was Swann’s age listed in her system, she and I were not the same age.
In American age, she is 20 years old, and I am 22 years old since her birthday hasn’t passed yet.
In any case, I was older than myself, so I wasn’t paying much attention.
“Then shall we speak comfortably to each other?”
“Okay.”
After asking my age, Swan asked me to talk comfortably, so I told him to do whatever he wanted.
Since she would return to Korea soon anyway, and I wouldn’t have to see her, it didn’t matter if I just spoke to her briefly.
“I’ll speak comfortably.”
“Okay.”
After Swann said she would speak comfortably, she asked me various questions.
Where do you go to school, what are you doing now, and what are your usual hobbies?
My current hobby is having sex with women, but I couldn’t say it out loud, so I said I was playing games.
“A game? What game do you play?”
“This new virtual reality game.”
When I explained about virtual reality games, she asked if I was interested in it.
I asked a lot of questions, such as whether it was really the same as reality or whether it felt very strange.
“Do you like playing games?
“No… I haven’t done it much, but I wanted to give it a try.”
When she said that she didn’t have much time to play games because she was busy taking various classes since she was young, I recommended several games.
In the virtual reality games made by Company N, there were many entertainment games, but there were also quite a few general games.
There were simple RPG games and games with a lot of freedom to explore the world.
‘RPG reminds me of those bastards.’
While talking about an RPG game, I thought of the mercenaries shooting rockets, but I quickly put it out of my mind.
Those guys who threatened my parents no longer exist in this world except for Cynthia.
“I want to try that.”
“Virtual reality game?”
“Yes, I want to play that game where you travel through different worlds.”
“Now that it’s officially released, a capsule will probably be released soon, so give it a try.”
“I want to do it right now, so I’ll have to ask my grandfather.”
She spoke to me with great interest when I told her there was a game where you could travel around the world freely.
Company N’s virtual reality game recently finished beta and was preparing for official release.
While I haven’t played for a while, I’m a little sad that the beta is over, but I don’t really care because there are more fun things in real life than games now.
After talking about this and that, she and I were able to arrive at a beach where there was no one around.
“We have arrived.”
“Then prepare yourself, and I’ll be out soon.”
“Yes, lady.”
Swann said to me as she got out of the car, telling the security guard that she had arrived skillfully and to prepare herself.
“Do you know how to swim?”
“I know how to do the basics.”
When I was young, my parents taught me how to survive in any situation, and I also learned to swim.
“The waves are calm here, so it’s perfect for swimming.”
“Okay? “I will do it as soon as I am ready.”
I started to feel a little comfortable with her because she spoke and talked to me with ease.
Although she was a wealthy girl, her business was so outstanding that she had many enemies around her.
So Swan, who couldn’t make deep friends her age, seemed to like talking to me like this.
We chatted about this and that and watched the security guard running in front of us setting up the parasol.
