[Are you dead?]
One insincere sentence.
ââ¦.â
Song In-myeong got irritated.
âMiss, reallyâ¦.â
I blushed.
Song In-myeong, who had been sprawled out on the bed, woke up.
âTheyâre doing this to manipulate me again.â
I got grumpy for no reason.
âYou have to have a kidney ripped out to know that the industry is scary.â
In fact, he is not a person who would be easily scared if you proposed such a transaction.
ââ¦If he was such a scary person, he wouldnât have contacted me again in the first placeâ¦â
It was a text message that simply asked, âAre you dead?â, but I could roughly understand Lee Jae-heonâs intentions. It probably meant deciding whether to cut off or continue the business relationship that had been going on for a while.
In the meantime, Song In-myeong was kept in a private room and did not make any movement, so if he wanted to be suspicious, he could have. However, Lee Jae-heon was already convinced that Song In-myeong would eventually do business again, so he only sent such an arrogant text message.
âAnyway, heâs an annoying guy.â
Song In-myeong got out of bed while grumbling.
ââ¦Oh, itâs me.â
Song In-myeong called the manager and asked with a frown.
âDid you recognize her as Seo In-young?â
ââ¦.â
âHmm, okay.â
ââ¦.â
âIâll organize it and send it to you by email, sister.â
Song In-myeong hung up the phone and pressed his cell phone to my lips.
ââ¦.â
I thought I was going to transfer to Seo In-youngâs direction.
âIâm going to share this too.â
Song In-myeong felt a little fed up.
ââ¦Haaaaaaaâ¦.â
I sighed in an ambiguous feeling.
ââ¦.â
Song In-myeong wiped his face.
ââ¦Okay, let me organize my thoughts.â
It seemed like I would have to visit Lee Jae-heon sooner or later.
* * *
Kwon Yeon-hee shed tears of happiness.
âThereâs⦠a lot of meat!â
âNo, he doesnât normally eat meat, so why is he reacting like this?â
âThere are too manyâ¦! There are so many! âI never thought I would see something like this in my life!â
âI packed a lot of things. So what.â
âI love you, Managerâ¦!â
âHey, are you telling me not to say things like that? âA grown woman and child.â
Regardless of Lee Jae-heonâs bitter reaction, Kwon Yeon-hee continued to be happy.
âI never thought I would accumulate and eat so much meat in my lifetimeâ¦!â
âSo donât overdo it. âYouâre acting like someone whoâs never eaten meat in their life.â
Kim Yeon-woo intervened in Lee Jae-heonâs words.
âI think this is probably the first time in your life that youâve seen this much meat piled up.â
ââ¦.â
Hmm.
Lee Jae-heon, covering his mouth, asked back awkwardly after a moment.
ââ¦is it?â
âYes, I guess. âThis is a bit much.â
As Kim Yeon-woo said, there were all kinds of meat in the yard.
Most of them were large raw meats that were not divided into small pieces and were good for barbecue, but Noh Yeon-seokâs eyes sparkled as he had introduced himself several times as someone who loved cooking. President Choi Jeong-man was impressed and said, âIt looks like they are out to do business.â
Kim Yeon-woo looked around and smiled as if it was amazing and asked.
âI havenât seen you bring this much meat. Did you bring it to the villa in advance? âI donât think there was this amount of meat in the trunk.â
âUhâ¦â
Lee Jae-heon answered, gently wiping his mouth.
âIt was a gift from my family.â
âyes? âFamily?â
âMy brother and my sister.â
âah.â
âBrother for the beef, sister for the restâ¦.â
ââ¦.â
ââ¦.â
Lee Jae-heon hesitated and asked in a tense atmosphere.
ââ¦isnât it a bit bad? If you get paid like this at this ageâ¦â
âI donât think thatâs the problem, manager.â
When Kang Min-ah shook her head gently, Noh Yeon-seok, who was next to her, asked back with a pale face.
âIsnât this human meatâ¦?â
âYeonseok, your words are harsh. âMy family is not in the private loan business, so why do you say that?â
âManager, I heard your father ran a private loan business when he was youngâ¦â
âWhat are you talking about? I guess heâs given up nowâ¦? âYouâre older tooâ¦?â
âWhy is it a question?â
âTo be honest, I donât know my family very well.â
âoutcast?â
âSo why do you talk like that?â
Choi Jeong-man smiled awkwardly and stepped between them.
âI, um, human meat⦠Iâve never seen anything like that, but this definitely looks like beef and pork, so Yeonseok, letâs rest easy.â
âWhat about thatâ¦?â
âThatâs lamb. Yeonseok says he likes cooking, so why are you so confused?â
âThis is the first time Iâve seen it whole like thisâ¦â
âDonât you think it looks more like animal meat because itâs a whole barrel? Look at that lamb leg sticking out. Anyway, Iâm very scared.â
As Choi Jeong-man laughed cheerfully and patted Noh Yeon-seok on the back, the atmosphere among the survivors gradually eased. Kang Min-ah let out a sigh of relief.
âWhat a relief.â
âWhy on earth is our familyâs image like this?â
âWouldnât a gift of meat from a family member giving red chrysanthemums as a visitation gift be a bit creepyâ¦?â
âIf you say that, I donât have anything to say.â
Jaeheon Lee scratched his head nervously.
âAissi⦠Anyway, itâs not like that. âI said I was going to the villa to have fun, so I said I had already stocked up.â
âWhy did you tell your family you were going to the villa to play in the first place?â
In response to Jung In-hoâs question, Lee Jae-heon looked at him with eyes that asked, âWhy are you asking such an obvious question?â
âThen why donât you do it? âWho is managing this villa?â
âI heard itâs the managerâs.â
âItâs mine, but thereâs someone else who manages it. Iâm not the type of person who can do that well. My sister was taking care of it for meâ¦â
âAha, so.â
âI told my sister, and my brother automatically heard the news.â
âHmmâ¦â
Jeong In-ho thought deeply about those words and then raised his head.
âI just had an ominous feeling.â
âAre you imitating Detective Hong Kyung-jun?â
âPlease listen seriously and not be sarcastic. âI felt really ominous.â
ââ¦.â
Just as Jaeheon Lee was about to move his lips to say something, his cell phone rang.
âBoss?â
âNo, itâs nothing special.â
âEvery time the manager said something like that, it was always about separation?â
âI really didnât receive such a big call⦠it was just a security notification.â
ââ¦Security alert?â
âuh.â
Jaeheon Lee showed his cell phone screen to all the survivors.
âA guest has arrived.â
What was shown on the screen was Jeong Eun-woo sticking his head out of the car and saying hello.
Looking at the location, it was right in front of the villa.
âcrazy.â
âWhat about you? What about uncle? âWhat is crazy, crazy?â
âNo, itâs not like that⦠uh, what are you doing now? âDid you open the door?â
âThen are you going to kick out the person who came here at this hour?â
âWhy did that person come here in the first place? âWhy on earth⦠whyâ¦â
Jeong In-ho, who was denying reality, soon looked at Lee Jae-heon with bloodshot eyes.
âThe manager called.â
âWhat nonsense, why am I calling this guy?â
âThen are you going to dismiss my uncleâs visit to this remote area as just a coincidence?â
âI told you that my sister manages this villa.â
âah.â
âYour secretary is Jeong Eun-wooâ¦â
âAhhâ¦â
âThen who was the person who directly managed this villa?â
Lee Jae-heon looked at Jeong In-ho with pitiful eyes.
âAre you denying reality when you already figured it out?â
âIf you, Manager, are in my situation once, you will understand how miserable I am.â
âI would still do that even if my uncle came.â
âIf your parents come.â
âAh, for Assistant Manager Jeong In-ho, Uncle Jeong Eun-woo is at the level of his parents? Itâs very touching. Director Jeong is going to cry.â
âI think this could constitute a crime of spreading false information.â
âWhen do you say I spread it?â
âYou do not deny that it is false.â
Sigh-.
Around that time, a car stopped next to the lawn.
âInho, were you having a good time?â
And then Jung Eun-woo came out.
ââ¦.â
ââ¦.â
It was a very natural greeting to say that they had been in a relationship for over 10 years without knowing whether each other was alive or dead, only to have reunited a few weeks ago.
Jaeheon Lee said.
âI donât think itâs particularly false anymore.â
âNot my parents.â
âProbably not. More real than my real parentsâ¦â
âOh no.â
âAre you annoyed with the manager just now?â
âAhh⦠ah ahâ¦.â
Jeong In-ho, who was struggling in pain, was taken away by Hong Gyeong-jun, and Lee Jae-heon played the role of Jeong Eun-woo, who was naturally an uninvited guest. He stood in front of Jeong Eun-woo, who was carrying an armful of something.
âWhat is that?â
âFruit.â
âWhy didnât you come to visit me?â
âDirector Jaeheon Lee seems to think so because he only receives fruit gifts when visiting the hospital, but this is a gift I bought entirely out of good faith.â
âOh, so I guess the visitation gift is a good intention, then?â
âI bought it with a more cheerful heart. âI heard that you like mangoes, so I brought you mainly tropical fruits, but Iâm not sure how youâll like it.â
ââ¦.â
âThere is also papaya.â
Jaeheon Lee nodded.
âpass.â
âBossâ¦!â
âYour nephew is over there.â
âThank you for your hospitality.â
âIt was nothing.â
The manager, who abandoned the assistant manager who was crying out for him in sadness, called Noh Yeon-seok.
âYeonseok, please take care of this.â
âUh⦠isnât there poison in here?â
âDonât worry, even though I was given cancer poison at home, my life was never in danger. âItâs probably a sleeping pill at best.â
âThatâs not a reassuring statement at all, Manager.â
âEven if itâs really poisonous, you wonât die. Itâs okay, itâs okay. âTrust the manager.â
âWhatâs okayâ¦â
Noh Yeon-seok continued to mutter as he entered the villa carrying a heavy fruit basket. Kang Min-ah followed behind, perhaps because she was worried about sending her younger, more inexperienced lover alone.
âWhat a nice looking pair.â
âYes.â
âAhait, Iâm surprised⦠havenât you gone to your nephew yet?â
âIn-ho has a delicate side. âWe decided to take our time and approach it gradually.â
âYou act like youâre treating a wild cat.â
âInho is as cute as a cat.â
âI donât know if youâve ever heard of those called bean pods. âItâs unseemly to act mischievously with your grown-up nephew at that age, you know?â
âBy the wayâ¦â
âWhatâs wrong? âCould you please not clean it up by yourself, Eunwoo Jeong?â
âThereâs a lot of meat.â
Ha Seong-yoon, who was quietly observing the situation, asked.
âWasnât it delivered to you by Jeong Eun-woo?â
âYes, no.â
âI just heard that the person who manages this villa is Eunwoo Jeong. None of us have contacted Eun-Woo Jeong, and you came at such good timing that you canât just say noâ¦â
âI was able to come here thanks to my juniors contacting me.â
âJunior?â
âMy co-workers. So, what I mean isâ¦.â
Jung Eun-woo continued, smiling with his signature smooth face.
âI meant that there was nothing else I heard from the chairman.â
âThatâs unexpected.â
âI was on vacation for almost a month.â
ââ¦.â
When Ha Seong-yoon blinked with a look of âwhat are you talking about?â at the refreshing remark that is hard to hear in todayâs harsh society, Hong Gyeong-jun, who was next to him and was suppressing Jeong In-ho to prevent him from running away, asked.
âRecommended resignation?â
âno. âBecause itâs paid vacation.â
âIt was your bossâs kind and final consideration, but arenât you so clueless that you didnât understand?â
âThe president doesnât tend to be very warm, so this is just a normal long paid vacation.â
âItâs amazing to have paid vacation for over a month.â
âItâs the generosity of a large company. Detective Hong Gyeong-jun, maybeâ¦â
âI think being a detective suits my personality.â
âItâs a shame.â
Lee Jae-heon looked bored.
âWhy are you trying to scout just by meeting my family?â
âEveryone has good qualifications, so stop.â
âItâs disgusting, so stop. âWhatâs wrong with taking a monthâs vacation?â
âI was offered a vacation because I felt like I was smiling a lot after going to the other side of the world.â
ââ¦.â
Lee Jae-heon, who was trying to convince himself with his brows furrowed, soon failed and asked back.
âWhat kind of novel bullshit is thisâ¦.â
âIt was originally supposed to be for a few weeks, but the counselor freaked out, so it ended up being a month.â
âWhy is there a lot of laughter, but the counselor is shocked? âIsnât that actually a good thing?â
âI donât know much about that either. I thought my condition had really improved, but is this because such a sudden change is impossible based on common sense?â
âCrazy bastards are all over the place.â
Jaeheon Lee nodded.
Perhaps the counselor is also someone from the industry or this party. For people in that world, a sudden increase in human emotions would be nothing short of a disasterâ¦
âEspecially because Jung Eun-woo was a bit harsh.â
Lee Jae-heon said after organizing his thoughts.
âWell, it was worth freaking out.â
ââ¦Where on earth are you goingâ¦?â
âThere is such a thing.â
Kwon Yeon-hee glanced at Lee Jae-heon and Jeong Eun-woo with eyes that could see the incomprehensible, but soon the high school students intervened and this brief commotion was destroyed.
âSo when do we eat meat?â
âIâm hungry.â
âWe brought rice⦠arenât you going to bake it?â
In turn, following the remarks of Seong Ji-ho, Maeng Na-eun, and Kim Hee-chan, the Park siblings also added their strength.
âWe brought the sauce.â
âCanât we grill the meat first before the rice cools down?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYou can tell stories while eating meat.â
âThereâs so much meat, itâs all going to spoil.â
âItâs big, so put it up a bit in advance.â
âWhen do you cook it and when do you eat it?â¦â
Lee Jae-heon sighed as they continued to hit each other in a friendly manner.
âBoss, letâs add some meat.â
âThe temperature of the charcoal is ambiguous⦠Yes, I understand. âI just eat roughly.â
President Choi Jeong-man placed a large piece of meat on the wire mesh with a happy face. Kim Hee-chan, who has a sturdy appearance and loves to eat, smiled brightly.
âWow, the brisket is so big.â
âWhat is brisket?â
âItâs what you put in when making meat soup.â
âIsnât that tough?â
âIf you bake it over a low heat for a long time, it smells good and becomes very soft.â
âI donât want it to take so long.â
In response, Dayoung Park courageously approached the wire mesh.
âThen you can upload other things as well. âMy sister goes to Sirloin.â
âAhh, Park Dayoung is so powerfulâ¦!!â
âI respect you, senior!!â
âPut it all up, put it all up.â âIâm going to gain 3kg of weight today.â
âWe can do it!!â
âwill do! number! there is!!â
Ha Seong-yoon muttered softly as he looked at the frantic scene.
âHow can you say that you will get an adult disease at a young age?â
Lee Yun-byeol, who was quietly next to Ha Seong-yoon, patted Seo-ah on the back and smiled awkwardly.
âPlaying like that at that age is also a memory.â
âI draw it, itâs cute and nice.â
The azalea right next to it was also positive.
Ha Seong-yoon made a slightly sad expression.
âThere is no one on my side.â
âIt comes naturally when you make a good impression and smile.â
âThatâs true, butâ¦â
Kim Ki-jeong nodded at Ha Seong-yoonâs muttering.
âI understand Ha Seong-yoonâs feelings.â
âis that so?â
âIâm sucked. I want to go home.â
âha ha ha.â
In the end, the meat party continued until 6:39 am.
The villa trip, which was 2 days and 1 night, will be extended to 3 days and 2 nights.
