Vol. 2 Chapter 51: Chapter 51
Translated by Chef
Edited by Chef
“Ahh Fuck, I’m going crazy.”
Manager Cha Hyunkyu frowned and exhaled smoke while holding an umbrella.
[I think today is the day. Brother-in-law.]
At the text message he received an hour ago, Manager Cha hurriedly got dressed and ran out of the house. From the beginning, he was against putting Kangwoo in the position. As always, it was CEO Kim’s job to do the work.
“You’re an old man who’s doomed, just come back.”
Manager Cha, who smoked a cigarette, said in resentment towards CEO Kim, who went on a business trip to China just in time.
It took him forever to think of his young and bright ex-brother-in-law as the road manager of the damn dog, Lee Wooyeon. So even before he started working, Cha urged Kim Kangwoo.
Never be friendly with Lee Wooyeon, do not pretend to be unnecessarily close to Inseop in front of Lee Wooyeon, never be interested in Lee Wooyeon, and if you have any trouble, contact CEO Kim or him first and do not intervene. In addition, when listing the precautions to be memorized, Kim Kangwoo did not understand why he had to go so far.
“If you don’t understand, just memorize it.’
Later, while printing out the warnings and handing them over, Manager Cha added one thing.
One day, if Lee Wooyeon laughs and curses at him, contact him regardless of the reason. The codename was set to ‘that day’. That’s why he texted him today. As soon as Manager Cha came out, he asked where he should go. Soon after, he texted him the place and time.
“I’m dying of cold, but where the hell is that guy?”
It was late summer rain. Manager Cha looked around as his body trembled.
He saw Kangwoo come running with quick steps from the other side.
“Hey! You!”
“Brother-in-law”
Kim Kangwoo ran to ManagerCha, crying like a goat.
“What happened? Did Lee Wooyeon just curse at you while laughing?”
“So…that’s.”
Kim Kangwoo hesitated and blurted out his words.
“What did you say?
“He wasn’t swearing.”
Kim Kangwoo glanced behind him and lowered his voice.
“You might think I’ve lost my mind. How to say, in the eyes of actor Lee Wooyeon today.”
“In the eyes?”
“…I think he’s cursing.”
“…..”
Manager Cha’s eyes hardened like old acorn jelly.
“I’m sorry. Did I pay too much attention that I became sensitive? Oh why am I like this? I must have bothered my brother-in-law. I’m sorry.”
Understanding Manager Cha’s silence in a completely different way, Kim Kangwoo scratched his head in embarrassment.
“No. You did well. “
Manager Cha tapped Kim Kangwoo on the shoulder. Anyone who has experienced it can know exactly what it feels like to have curses come out of Lee Wooyeon’s eyes.
“Where is Lee Wooyeon?”
“I said I was going to pick up the car first and came out. He will come with hyung.”
“With Inseop, is that so?”
Manager Cha’s complexion suddenly darkened. Hearing that Lee Wooyeon was not feeling well, he naturally thought that Inseop would rest until today.
“Yes. I think the two of them fought. No, rather than fighting, it’s an atmosphere where the actor is one-sidedly angry. The atmosphere is really bad. Did something happen during the filming?”
Manager Cha let out a long sigh. This is why in-house dating is forbidden.
“Okay. Let’s get in the car first, my ankle is so cold because I have an iron core in my bone.”
“I’m sorry.”
Kim Kangwoo opened the car door. Manager Cha sat in his passenger seat and massaged his ankle. Soon after, Inseop opened the passenger-side door.
“Hi. Inseop”
Manager Cha said hello in a bright voice. Surprised by the unexpected appearance of Manager Cha, Inseop lowered his head with his eyes wide open.
“Hello. Manager. What are you doing?
“I stopped by today because I had something to do around here, and I heard that Kangwoo was nearby.”
“Are your feet okay?”
“Yes. I can walk around quite a bit now.”
“That’s good.”
Even in the midst of that brief moment, Inseop expressed his sincere feelings of relief.
How can he be so heartbroken?
Manager Cha would admire Inseop every time he talked to him.
On the other hand,
“… ”
It’s been a while since they’ve seen each other, and even though their eyes met, there was a bastard who went into the car without even pretending to notice, let alone ask how he was doing.
“It’s been a while. Lee Wooyeon.”
“Is that so?”
Lee Wooyeon replied as if it was annoying.
“Are you really okay?
Inseop asked Lee Wooyeon as he was about to get into the car. Lee Wooyeon ignored Inseop and sat down.
“If you feel unwell right now, go to the hospital…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Stop talking nonsense.”
Lee Wooyeon cut off Inseop’s words.
In a very rare case, Manager Cha just agreed with Lee Wooyeon’s opinion. It was useless. Lee Wooyeon was not sick.
“Inseop, why don’t you ride in the back today?”
“Oh, today…”
Inseop looked at the passenger seat and the back seat alternately, not knowing what to do, but Manager Cha tried hard to pretend not to notice. The only way to break this dog shit atmosphere was for the two to reconcile.
“All right.”
Inseop had no choice but to close the passenger door and open the back door of the van. He sat as far away from Lee Wooyeon as possible.
“Sit here.”
Lee Wooyeon motioned to the seat next to him.
“No. It’s fine here.”
“The seat belt is loose.
Inseop grabbed the seat belt buckle, put it in the clip, and shook the belt a few times. As Lee Wooyeon said, the connection felt a bit loose.
“It seems fine.”
When Lee Wooyeon glanced at him with dissatisfied eyes, Inseop replied, “It’s okay because we’ll be arriving soon.”
Because of what happened today, it was embarrassing to sit right next to Lee Wooyeon. Then, Lee Wooyeon did not recommend it again and began to read the book.
“I will depart.”
Kim Kangwoo started the engine. Again, the inside of the car was filled with cool silence.
“Did something happen today?” Manager Cha cautiously tried to talk.
“Nothing happened.”
Manager Cha was quite surprised. He thought Inseop would answer, but Lee Wooyeon spoke first. Inseop was watching Lee Wooyeon’s eyes. It was like a puppy making a mistake and waiting for the owner to dispose of it.
Clearly something happened.
Manager Cha continued, pretending not to know.
“Inseop said he went to the hospital for a checkup yesterday. Is there anything wrong?”
It was a question to remind Lee Wooyeon that Choi Inseop was a patient.
“Yes. There is nothing wrong.”
“…Well, didn’t anything special happen today?”
“Why do you keep asking the same question over and over again? Can I make something different for you?”
Lee Wooyeon answered without taking his eyes off the book. Kim Kangwoo gave a quick wink to Manager Cha, telling him to look at that. It wasn’t surprising that he was the head of the department, since he was familiar with the way he spoke, but Kim Kangwoo, who had no way of knowing Lee Wooyeon’s identity, seemed to be shocked.
“I politely decline.”
Manager Cha replied bluntly and glanced at Inseop through the rear-view mirror. From earlier, Inseop was flustered and only stared at Lee Wooyeon. On the other hand, Lee Wooyeon did not even pay attention to Inseop.
If he’s worried about the seatbelt, it’s not like they broke up. Since it is said that they fought, with Choi Inseop’s personality, the fight would not have been established in the first place.
… Are you just kidding?
Manager Cha thinks he has made a very convincing hypothesis.
He sympathized with Inseop with all his heart.
Tsk tsk. How did he get caught on something like that?
“Should we listen to the radio?”
Unable to endure the awkward silence, Kim Kangwoo suddenly shouted and turned on the radio. A long time ago, a popular song began to flow.
“It’s noisy.”
At Lee Wooyeon’s short words, Kim Kangwoo turned off the radio again with a sullen face.
“Kangwoo. There’s a CD under it, not a radio…”
“Isn’t that noisy?”
Lee Wooyeon cut off Inseop’s words with a single knife. Inseop was so downcast that he couldn’t answer and only touched the hem of his clothes. In the van, only the sound of Lee Wooyeon turning the pages could be heard.
To borrow Lee Wooyeon’s expression, it was a really shitty atmosphere. It was to the point where he could barely breathe. Manager Cha chose to keep his mouth shut. He knows that if he says anything unnecessary, that bastard will only grow more savage. Inseop also kept his mouth shut because he knew that fact better than anyone else. The problem was Kim Kangwoo.
“Hey, it’s raining a lot today. At times like this, it’s perfect to eat makgeolli with green onion.”
Unaware of Lee Wooyeon’s personality, he made his own efforts to overcome this awkward atmosphere.
“There is a restaurant I know that makes green onion pancakes really delicious. Today shall we all go there for a drink? Hand of the person to go with!”
If there was something hurting between friends, it was enough to drink all night long. All the disputes around Kim Kangwoo ended that way.
Lee Wooyeon didn’t pretend to hear, Inseop couldn’t raise his hand, and Cha just shook his head without saying a word.
Kim Kangwoo, probably thinking that this operation was a failure, rushed into the next operation.
“Right. Hyung-nim, did you have a good date with your girlfriend at that time?”
When Lee Wooyeon seems to be in a bad mood, he unconditionally brings up that story and recalls his advice.
“Uh-?”
Inseop jumped up in surprise at the word girlfriend.
“You said you were going on a date the day before your schedule ended early. How was it?”
“…I couldn’t do it because of circumstances that day.”
Inseop’s voice shrank because he seemed to have accidentally hit Lee Wooyeon.
“Hahaha. Actually, yesterday you said you couldn’t come, so I thought maybe you couldn’t come because you had a big date that day. You’re a man too, ha.”
“I couldn’t come because I went to the hospital for a checkup.”
At Kim Kangwoo’s joke, Inseop quickly revealed his whereabouts. Lee Wooyeon was not taking his eyes off the book, but the pages of the book were not turned over.
“Then, where did you go if not on a date that day?”
Kim Kangwoo asked while skillfully changing lanes.
“To look at the cat.”
Again, it was Lee Wooyeon, not Inseop, that answered. Kim Kangwoo pretended to know right away.
“Ah, by any chance, are they the ones you mentioned back then? What was it, Eyeshield? Ibong? Whatwas the name>”
“Isaac, Arthur.”
This time too, Lee Wooyeon answered.
“That’s right, that’s right. I almost got it? right. But, hyung, did you go see the cat instead of a date?”
“Because it was the last day since they were getting adopted…”
Inseop blurted out. Even on the last day, he couldn’t go to see the kittens, and he was even lying, so his mouth was bitter.
“Didn’t you say there were a few more?”
“There are two more. Lois and John.”
“If you have any pictures, could you send them to me? My older sister likes cats, so I wanted to ask. Didn’t she raise them when you lived with second brother-in-law?”
“No. When she lived with CEO Kim.”
Manager Cha corrected the wrong information right away.
“Anyway,”
Kim Kangwoo smiled brightly.
“Hyung. Please send me a photo. okay?”
“Yes. I’ll send it right away.”
Inseop took out his cell phone, felt his gaze and raised his head. Lee Wooyeon was looking at Inseop while holding a book.
“…Would you like to send me a picture to Lee Wooyeon?”
Inseop carefully asked him.
“Why are you showing him pictures of cats?”
Manager Cha was surprised and asked. It was Lee Wooyeon who did not hesitate to threaten a cat or anything else.
“Before, Mr. Lee Wooyeon said he wanted to raise him.”
“Come on. What kind of cat would Lee Wooyeon like? They shed a lot of hair and smells like urine. You shouldn’t carelessly bring in animals without affection.”
Manager Cha helped out a little, worried that he might ruin the sale of the cat.
“Can I have something affectionate?”
Then Lee Wooyeon suddenly asked.
“…you’re gonna have to take a good look at the other doctor.”
“No. If you raise an animal, Lee Wooyeon will do well.”
Watching Inseop siding with Lee Wooyeon, Manager Cha couldn’t bear to say that he seemed to want to have you, not a cat.
“Oh, why does he keep doing that?”
At that time, Kim Kangwoo, who was driving, muttered in an annoyed tone.
“What?”
Manager Cha turned his gaze forward and asked.
“There is a red Audi in front of me. He kept being smart, so I changed lanes, but he cut me in the front again. Did he do that on purpose?”
“He must have been excited because it was the first time in his life that he rode a foreign car. Leave it alone. You change lanes.”
It was one of the many things he went through while being a celebrity manager.
Kim Kangwoo clicked his tongue as if disapproving of it and turned on the blinker.
Inseop started looking for the cutest cat picture to show Lee Wooyeon in his cell phone picture list. Lee Wooyeon stared at Inseop, who was doing the most useless thing in the world.
“Strangely, there are people who would get into a fight just by driving this car. Is it because of their mood?”
“No. It happens often. So always drive defensively, Ah!”
Manager Cha shouted loudly. When Kim Kangwoo stepped on the brakes immediately, the van skidded off the road with a roar. It narrowly avoided a collision with the Audi that suddenly intervened.
“Ha . That crazy bastard.”
Manager Cha raised his head and cursed.
“Kangwoo. Are you okay?
“Yes”
Kim Kangwoo, who avoided the accident narrowly, was tired of the day.
“You guys are fine..”
Looking back, the manager’s expression hardened. His eyes met Lee Wooyeon, who was holding Inseop’s body with his hand outstretched.
Wooyeon unfastened his seat belt and leaned in front of Inseop. Inseop groaned and covered his face with his hand. Because the clip was loose, it seemed that Inseop couldn’t overcome the speed of his sudden stop and slammed his face in front of him.
“Look up.”
Wooyeon wrapped his arms around Inseop’s face and made him look at him.
“It’s okay.”
Inseop laughed and tried to reassure Lee Wooyeon, but he failed.
Blood trickled down between his white fingers.
Lee Wooyeon bit his lips. Inseop quickly wiped the blood from his nose and shook his head.
“It’s okay. My nose gets affected by a little bump, no, my nose usually bleeds. Never mind.”
Even while Inseop was talking, the dripping nose bleed soaked his clothes.
Lee Wooyeon turned his head forward. Manager Cha thought that he had to prevent his ex-brother-in-law from being beaten to death, so he quickly raised his arm to protect Kim Kangwoo.
“It’s not the rain’s fault. It’s that crazy Audi’s fault. It’s all Audi’s fault.
“I think so.”
Manager Cha was relieved at Lee Wooyeon, who for some reason accepted his words obediently. However, as soon as he saw Lee Wooyeon’s eyes glaring at the Audi in front of him, his hands and feet started to get cold. It was an emergency.
“Lee Wooyeon! No. Absolutely no.”
Lee Wooyeon did not answer and opened the back door. At the same time, Inseop grabbed the hem of Wooyeon’s clothes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I’ll go out and talk.”
The blood was still flowing on Inseop’s fingers, which had blocked his nose. Lee Wooyeon, who saw that, smiled twistedly.
“Once I leave…”
Inseop couldn’t say the next word. Lee Wooyeon put his hand on the back of Inseop’s seat and tilted his upper body. Then he wiped off Inseop’s blood with the cuff of his sleeve.
“One bleeding person is enough.”
It was a short but powerful statement. Even if it wasn’t so, Inseop, who had an accident today, couldn’t actively step forward to fix it.
“You also stay still. If you come out, you will see what I mentioned earlier.”
Lee Wooyeon warned the two people sitting in the front seat and got out of the car.
“Lee Wooyeon!
Manager Cha urgently called his name, but Lee Wooyeon walked away without looking back. The Audi, which had slid off with the van, was parked on the side of the road with its emergency flashers on. Lee Wooyeon approached the Audi and knocked on the car glass.
The passenger’s glass was lowered.
“Oh, it’s Lee Wooyeon.”
A pretty woman who covered her whole body with luxury goods looked at Lee Wooyeon and acted like she knew him.
“You don’t know me? You and I used to film a beer commercial together. Don’t you remember?”
Lee Wooyeon did not answer and looked at the man sitting next to the woman.
“Oh, I’m really unlucky today.”
A man wearing silver-rimmed glasses with a five-fold parted head furiously furrowed his brow and muttered as if to listen.
“You really are. Mr. Lee Wooyeon, don’t worry and take a picture with me. I should brag to my friends.”
The woman pulled her cell phone out of her clutch.
“Are you sick?”
Lee Wooyeon’s voice was low.
Water dripped from his wet hair and ran down his cheeks. Even though he should have looked sad and sloppy, he looked straight out of a scene from a romance movie. The woman who was taking out her cell phone stared blankly at Lee Wooyeon’s face.
“What? What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“Otherwise, why do you drive like that?”
The man’s expression immediately hardened.
“Wow, that’s really shocking. Your manager suddenly snapped the steering wheel and skidded all the way to our car.
“Oppa. That’s not true. Oppa cut him first.”
The woman giggled as she covered her mouth with her hand. The man’s face flushed red as if he thought he had been beaten up.
“No, I couldn’t avoid that, that’s the problem.I heard that drivers that drive like bastards without eyes are everywhere. Well, what did the fucker learn driving from?”
“Then I was a model too, but what about someone else?”
When the woman pretended to pout, the man said that’s not it and held out his hand.
“You and him are the same, right? You are an artist who expresses clothes. Where should I compare?”
Lee Wooyeon looked at the man blankly. Rainwater dripped down the line of his jaw.
“It’s all wet. What should I do? Wipe it with this.”
The man’s expression crumpled grimly as the woman took a handkerchief from her purse.
“It’s okay. He’s all wet anyway, why would he need that?”
The man made the woman lower her hand. Lee Wooyeon stared blankly at the man.
“What are you looking at? You little bastard
The man seemed to interpret Lee Wooyeon’s silence as his right to be reckless.
“Wow, look at that bastard, looking at someone who is older than them. Did you go to the army? Is a Celebrity a Government job? You’re just a whore.”
Lee Wooyeon laughed slowly without saying a word. When he showed no sign of anger, the man spewed out more promiscuous words as if his cruelty were a symbol of bravery.
“Well, that’s why you’re dating a prostitute bitch who walks around with her legs wide open. It’s a match made in heaven.”
The man giggled and raised the passenger side window. The woman sitting next to him grumbled that he was a bit harsh, but the man didn’t care. He got behind the wheel, humming a song, intoxicated by his sense of triumph.
Then he heard a knock on the glass of his car. Lee Wooyeon, who had walked toward the driver’s seat, motioned for the glass to be lowered and said something. He couldn’t hear Lee Wooyeon’s voice because of the heavy rain.
“What, why?”
The man let out a triumphant roar. Lee Wooyeon snapped his finger at him to lower the car glass.
“Why? What do you want to do with the car glass down?”
Looking at Lee Wooyeon, who was hit by the rain, the man raised his middle finger proudly.
The fact that the woman who he gave expensive gifts, bought dinner at a high-end restaurant, and put in a lot of effort in a nice car showed more interest in Lee Wooyeon than him, it stimulated the man’s inferiority complex.
Lee Wooyeon knocked on the car glass a few more times. It’s ugly. Ignoring the man, he got behind the wheel again.
It was then.
“……”
Crash!
The driver’s side glass cracked. The man’s eyes widened in astonishment. Holding a stone the size of a person’s head, Lee Wooyeon slammed the driver’s glass once more with an expressionless face. This time, the glass of the car was shattered.
“Ahh!”
Rain poured in through the shattered windows. Lee Wooyeon threw the stone and tore off the tattered car glass with his bare hands. Then he leaned in and looked at the man and said,
“What did you say?”
Lee Wooyeon’s voice rang softly. It was the voice he thought was good enough to hurt his ego whenever he heard it in commercials. However, hearing him in person did not even compare to what he heard on the air. Even in this situation, he thought that his voice was good.
“I couldn’t hear what you said. Say it out loud.”
“You crazy ..”
Only then did the man come to his senses and his lower lip quivered.Lee Wooyeon laughed softly as he brushed off his glass-encrusted fist. It was an unreal sight.
“You wouldn’t be fine like this! What will you do if I post this on the internet right now?”
Lee Wooyeon took the glasses off the man’s face.
“Because I don’t want you to get hurt.”
There was no need to ask what that meant. Lee Wooyeon grabbed the man by the back of his head and slammed him into the steering wheel with all his might.
Beeeeep.
The horn from the car sharply cut the sound of the rain.
