Childhood Friend of the Youngest Daughter of a Conglomerate Family

chapter 19



19 – Junction (1)

“Here, Hansol, try this too.”

“Ah, thank you. It’s delicious.”

“Heh heh heh, eat a lot. If you want to eat something more, don’t notice and order more. If you eat a lot at your age, you will grow up quickly.”

“… I am grateful to the president for his kindness.”

Right now, I’m at a restaurant specializing in Chinese food at the invitation of King Yoo Cheol.

Of course, I am not alone, but with Yoo Jae-jun, Han Seung-ah, Yoo Ah-hyun and Ara.

In other words, all of Arane’s family except Yu Ji-tae are together.

King Yoo Chul invites us to a meal like this every month or two.

According to Yoo Ah-hyun, she had never seen her face this often before I came.

‘I’m sorry about something. It’s just because of me that I’m in such an uncomfortable position.’

By the way, what is this food that King Yoo Chul put on my plate?

Sheepskin?

I don’t know. It’s not a neighborhood Chinese restaurant that sold jajangmyeon and jjamppong that I used to know, but a restaurant that serves real Chinese food, so I don’t know what it is.

Even the menu is written in Chinese.

This old man is telling me what to order when the menu looks like this?

Of the six people seated at the table, only Yoo Cheol-wang and Yoo Jae-joon can talk to the Chinese waiter.

“Come on, Araya. Our granddaughter Try this.”

“… Thanks Grandpa.”

“Whoops, that guy too. It’s hard… “

King Yoo Cheol personally gave food to Ara as well.

Keep going, me once, ara once, like this.

At the age of 6, Ara flinched at King Yoocheol’s words and actions back then, but now she reacts calmly, perhaps because she has a big head.

Of course, it’s not a bold attitude.

“Khehehe, I should see you guys grow up before this body goes back to the soil… “

“Don’t talk like that, Chairman. Still correcting… “

Those words that seem to be a habit every time you see us, and the fishy laugh that gives you the feeling of a snake crawling on your body.

It’s an unpleasant look, but I returned the most polite answer.

“Whoops, yes. I’m trying hard to manage to live as long as possible. By the way, Ahyeon, how are you these days? Are you preparing well for studying abroad?”

“Sure Grandpa! Whose granddaughter am I? Grandpa, would you like to talk to me only in English?”

“Is that so? Where do you decide the subject?”

Out of this family, only Yoo Hyun-hyun can talk with King Yoo-chul while laughing.

It’s not because she likes King Yoo.

Before she came into this restaurant, she was the one who grumbled why she had to see her grandfather so often.

It is difficult even for an adult to be able to create such a friendly atmosphere with someone he dislikes… That’s an innate talent.

King Yoo Cheol, who spoke English fluently, looked at Han Seung-ah, who was eating quietly.

“Hyeon Ah, her younger sister, is so good at taking care of herself… What is your eldest son doing these days? It’s the eldest son, but haven’t you contacted the grandfather?”

Yoo Jae-jun’s older brother Yuhan-jun has no son.

Therefore, Yoo Jae-jun’s second son, Yoo Jae-jun’s son Yoo Ji-tae, becomes the eldest son of King Yoo-cheol.

“Chairman, Ji-tae is said to be studying too hard these days. Even during the last winter vacation, the child stayed at home for only a week before returning to the dormitory. Don’t worry too much… “

“Ha, you can afford to come home, but you can’t afford to call me, don’t you?”

“That, that… “

When King Yucheol shot him like that, Seungah Han lowered his head.

It’s this pattern again.

This pattern often appears whenever we have a meal. Mainly due to maintenance issues.

Now it’s the turn of King Yoo Cheol riding the current and barking loudly.

“The guy who says he hates studying abroad and studies in Korea! Are you saying you can’t even give me that little time? Either he doesn’t have time for him, or he just doesn’t have time for me!”

Of course it’s the latter. Are you saying that?

Would you like to have a conversation with a human who yells at you like this every time you talk?

I want to say that in my heart, but the reality is that I can’t.

Instead of me, Yoo Jae-joon said mockingly.

“Yeah, since my father is always like that, it must be burdensome for Ji-tae to contact him. Have you ever said something nice to me after Ji Tae-cheol?”

“Sometimes he has to do something he likes to say something good! I’m not saying this because you pampered him in the first place! If he followed my words and went to America right away, would I be like this!”

It’s a start again.

Yu Ji-tae should have gone to the US, so he babbles among them that he can do well even if he doesn’t go to the US.

In the end, Han Seung-ah or Yoo Ah-hyun will be in charge of the repair.

“Huh… Sol, come here.”

As soon as the argument started, Ara grabbed my hand and dragged me.

When this happens, Ara, who was in tears, is no longer there.

After giving King Yoo-cheol a contemptuous look, he quickly goes outside.

We will sit on a bench outside the restaurant just the two of us, as always, and wait for the rest of the family to come out.

“The son of a b*tch who will take over the company from you someday! How long are you going to grow so softly!”

I hear that from behind.

But I know that’s bullsh*t.

Yu Ji-tae cannot take over Daehan Group.

In the first place, it is Yuhanjun, not Yoo Jaejun, who will be handed over to King Yoocheol in the future.

———-

Before returning, I was not particularly interested in worldly affairs.

No, rather than not being interested, I couldn’t be interested.

Because I was busy making a living.

Places that hire people with facial disabilities like me are rare, and even if they do, they often do not receive proper wages.

Therefore, I had to work harder than others.

It would have been nice to report it to the Employment and Labor Administration, but I was such an idiot.

I thought it would be okay to report someone like me.

A bug like me lived while masturbating, saying it was right to live like this.

Until I met Soi Kim.

… Anyway, that kind of thing is meaningless now, and there are some bold news that even a country like this has heard.

Most of it was full of good things for a petit bourgeois like me, but there are things related to me in this life.

The first is the inheritance issue of the chairman of Daehan Group.

In his last years, King Yoo Cheol inherited all of his shares to his eldest son, Yuhanjun, in a will.

In the news, it was said that it was completely incomprehensible, and the board of directors said that the backlash was severe.

If one chaebol group in the top 10 in the business world is shaken, the whole country is shaken.

Since the whole country was only talking about it, no matter how much I was in the country, I knew this story.

And the second is also a problem with Daehan Group.

… It is the death of Han Seung-ah.

It was also talked about a lot in the news, but the reason I remember this is because of Lee Yoon-ah.

Lee Yoon-ah giggled while drinking expensive alcohol at home, as if she was happy that Han Seung-ah died young.

What happened to the replacement personality?

Perhaps that day, Yoona Lee was beaten as a commemoration of her good mood.

… Well, it’s not important to be like Yoona Lee right now.

In this life, I was blessed by Ara’s family.

Received a new life as a gift.

In order to repay that kindness, even a little bit, I have to be a strength to this family.

“We have to change the future.”

But first, the issue of King Yoo Cheol’s inheritance.

There is no way for me to do this.

First of all, I heard that the eldest son Yuhanjun’s ability is obviously inferior to Yoo Jaejun.

Yu Ji-tae boasted to me of his father and was confident that Yoo Jae-jun would inherit the position no matter how bad the relationship between King Yoo-chul and Yoo Jae-jun was.

However, King Yoo Cheol’s choice was different.

Clearly, the problem was caused by a deep emotional gap between the two.

So I can convince the two of them to reconcile?

Will that work?

Then, putting this aside, what about the second problem?

The death of Han Seung-ah.

All I know is when Han Seung-ah died.

When I was 12 or 13 years old.

But I don’t know why Han Seung-ah died.

We do not know whether Han Seung-ah died of an illness or an accident.

If he gets into an accident and dies, the future is all messed up at the point I met this family.

But what if he died of an illness?

I can’t guarantee that it’s an illness, but I might be able to struggle.

———-

“Ha… hehehe, hehehe… That, stop. I can’t anymore… “

“Heo-eok, whoo… Not yet. Now again, one more time.”

“You are too much… I can’t move anymore… “

Despite Han Seung-ah’s pleas, I did not stop.

Sweat dripped from the nape of Han Seung-ah’s neck and splashed on me due to the intense movement.

In the end, Han Seung-ah, whose stamina was exhausted, collapsed as if collapsing.

She shouted, almost clinging to me.

“No, no! Not anymore! If you do any more, I will die!”

“People die so easily… But today is the first day, so shall we stop here?”

“Yes, please!”

“Then take a break for 5 minutes.”

“Ah~ It’s too short~”

No, 37 years old, what’s wrong with a kid?

As you can see, we are working out.

Jogging in the park near my house.

Anyway, this lady is really weak.

Until she started running, she said she was confident in her stamina because she walked an hour’s commute when she was little…

“Mom, you are weak.”

“Ha ha ha… Ara, you must be my age… Even when I was active, I only did things like running in variety shows… “

Of course, Ara is also with us.

Surprisingly, even while my mother, Ara, who woke up early in the morning, cried, she bravely followed me at my tempo.

Anyway, does my body have good endurance?

For me, today is the first day of jogging, and I can breathe and my legs are fine.

A man named Allen may be a scumbag, but he seems to have handed down this body to me.

“Ha, Hansol… Let’s go home now… ? I have to make breakfast too… “

“Ah, I told the helper yesterday. Starting today, help me make breakfast. You should have gone to work by now?”

“That, what is that… “

“I told the boss in advance. Your wife usually tells you to do it because she lacks exercise, right?”

“That traitor… !”

Han Seung-ah’s despairing eyes are pitiful, but she can’t help it.

Because her 8 year old is all I can do for her.

She might be useless if she didn’t die of illness… It would have been nice if her stamina was good for her body, but it couldn’t be bad.

Especially when you’re around Han Seung-ah’s age.

“How did her health checkup go?”

“Auntie is a corpse except for her health? She said the doctor said she could live to be 100, so don’t worry too much.”

“… Does a healthy person collapse after running two laps in the park?”

Is there anything wrong with the health checkup?

However, it cannot be 100% reliable.

Even Han Seung-ah from her previous life must have had a health checkup.

However, there may be anomalies that have not been discovered.

Diseases like cancer are said to grow over a period of 5 to 10 years.

And depending on the person, it takes less than a year to go from stage 0 to the terminal stage.

“Still, how about taking another test at another hospital? Uh… Did you focus on cancer screening?”

“He… I was wondering what you’ve been looking at so hard these days, did you become interested in hospital work? Don’t worry. Cancer doesn’t happen that easily… “

“Please.”

“Hansol… “

Han Seung-ah made her face at the bottom of the embarrassment when I ejaculated with my head down.

She’ll have a hard time following what an 8-year-old says.

It’s not that easy to do a health checkup.

“Mom, let’s do what Sol-yi asked us to do just once. Huh? I think Sol-yi is worried about her mother too much.”

“… Yes, Hansol instead. Is she just going to try one more time? Understand?”

“… Yes thank you.”

———-

There was no abnormality in the result of Han Seung-ah’s examination.

Still, I didn’t let go.

It has become an annual event that I insist on taking Han Seung-ah to the hospital every year.

Of course, every time the result is abnormal.

After five years passed, I felt relieved.

Han Seung-ah just died in an accident, and since I came to this house, it seemed like nothing had happened.

And the year I turned 13, Han Seung-ah collapsed.
