14. Today is different from my previous life (3)
moved location
It was the construction site of Noblesse Apartments, and the night security guard recognized Kim Hyun-seong and opened the door. It was thanks to contacting Go Chang-beom in advance. Normally, only those involved were allowed to enter, but when Go Chang-beom, the eldest son of Myungjin Construction, contacted the night guard, the night security guard let the Kim Hyun-seong brothers through without verifying their identities.
Kim Hyun-jin looked around with an awkward expression.
He could not understand the current situation as a huge apartment building was going up before it was completed.
Stand tall.
I stopped walking.
Hyunseong Kim asked as we looked at the building together.
“Do you know where this is?”
“… … “It’s a construction site.”
“that’s right. But it’s not just a construction site. “Once this building goes up, we’ll get out of the basement and move here.”
“really?!”
Hyunjin Kim’s eyes widened.
An apartment.
Knowing the family’s situation well, I could not even imagine moving to an apartment.
“You know the location around here, right? It is the most developed neighborhood in Daesan, and there are many schools, supermarkets, and convenience facilities nearby, making it a place where everyone wants to live. What would it be like if you lived here? I no longer have to walk a long way to school, and even if I stay up late with my friends, I can walk home in 10 minutes. And hot water, which has always been a problem in the winter, will be running 24 hours a day, and you won’t have to shiver in the cold if the boiler suddenly breaks down.”
“Are you serious?”
“uh. When have I ever lied to you? And can I tell you one more fun fact? The company that built this apartment is Myungjin Construction, and now that it has been recognized nationwide as a safety issue, everyone is clamoring to buy Myungjin Construction’s apartment. You know there’s a shabby apartment right next door, right? “That’s an apartment built in the early 2000s. How much do you think it costs now?”
“… … “I don’t know.”
Hyunseong Kim laughed.
I am 16 years old.
I was at an age where I was still unfamiliar with apartments and real estate.
“400 million. “An apartment that was worth 300 million won has recently become 400 million won as real estate prices have risen.”
“400 million?!”
It was a price I could not dare estimate.
A middle school student who was shaken by the tuition of 300,000 won could not calmly accept the asking price of 100 million won.
“It’s fun, right? The building is getting older, but the price has actually gone up. What’s even more interesting is that the prices of the built-up apartments have also risen, so these apartments have no choice but to rise further. We need 500 million won to buy this apartment, but when we actually move into the apartment, we will be moving into an apartment worth more than 700 million won. This is the life we will live in the future. “I no longer have to worry about a few pennies, but do you want to walk down a thorny path to save money on school fees?”
I turned my head.
I looked at Hyunjin Kim.
He still didn’t seem to believe it.
500 million, 700 million.
It sounded like something out of nowhere.
Above all, how on earth do you buy a house worth 500 million won?
Hyunjin Kim asked cautiously.
“But where do we get the money? “What kind of money are you buying an apartment with?”
Low interest rates and loans.
Go Chang-beom’s support, etc.
I can explain it perfectly.
But there was no need for that.
For those unfamiliar with real estate, one magic word is enough.
“I won the subscription.”
“Subscription?”
“okay.”
I took a step back.
“And this is not the end. “There’s someone I need to meet now.”
* * *
It was a cafe.
When Kim Hyun-jin checked the grim-looking man sitting across from him, he secretly lowered his gaze.
Just now.
Hyunseong Kim called someone.
He opened the door roughly and came in, recognized Kim Hyun-seong and sat down on this side.
Hyunseong Kim said.
“Mr. Go Chang-beom, he is my guardian.”
“nice to meet. “It’s Go Chang-beom.”
Okay.
I offered my hand.
As Kim Hyun-jin blinked in embarrassment, Go Chang-beom withdrew his hand and scratched his head as if embarrassed.
I heard about the situation roughly.
A board prepared by Kim Hyun-seong.
Go Chang-beom knew what he had to do.
“I heard you think a lot about money. To put it bluntly, this guy is supporting Hyunseong through a scholarship program. You know it well, right? How smart is Hyunseong? At a prestigious school like Cheonil High School, it is not common to be ranked first in the entire class. “It means that Hyeonseong is not a person who will end up in a small well called Daesan.”
It was a one-sided conversation.
Go Chang-beom continued talking to Kim Hyun-jin, who was just listening.
“And although this guy looks a little rough, he is destined to become the chairman of a huge company called Myungjin Construction. So what kind of people do I need in the future? Don’t you need someone like Hyeonseong, someone from Daesan and smart? I did it to impress Hyunseong, and later, when Hyunseong became a really great person, I wanted to make him mine. “I plan to provide a lot of support to Hyeonseong.”
“… … really?”
“Really. And that support doesn’t just end with a few scholarships. Don’t worry about tuition or living expenses at all. I plan to provide full support and create an environment where Hyeonseong can focus solely on his studies. But suddenly Hyeonseong called me. “I used the money I received to pay for his younger brother’s school fees, but his younger brother said he was worried about his brother and didn’t go to the school.”
suddenly.
The image of Go Chang-seok came to mind.

At one time, they showed the same friendship as the Kim Hyun-seong brothers, but their relationship deteriorated as they crossed the threshold of reality. It was now an irreparable relationship. She just swallowed a bitter laugh and had no intention of forgiving her younger brother.
Because it was definitely my younger brother who crossed the line.
“I know what you’re worried about. But there is no need to think and judge on your own. We are currently providing sufficient living expenses through a scholarship program, and sending you to an academy alone will not cause any problems. On the contrary, if you attend the academy diligently, Hyunseong will be able to focus on himself without worrying about it. So, there is only one thing this man wants to say when he meets you like this.”
From now on.
I meant it.
Since he had established a personal relationship, Go Chang-beom did not think of his relationship with Kim Hyun-seong as simply a quid pro quo.
“do whatever you want. “Don’t worry about money.”
* * *
A series of situations.
Hyunjin Kim felt like he was dreaming.
brother.
My one and only brother.
He was Kim Hyun-jin’s idol.
He was good at studying, good at fighting, and there was nothing he couldn’t do.
So, when Kim Hyun-jin was attending elementary school with his older brother, everyone treated him well wherever he said he was Kim Hyun-seong’s younger brother. Are you Kim Hyun-seong’s younger brother or are you Hyunjin? Her friends tried to befriend her, and her older sisters and older brothers often came to class and looked after her. She was especially popular with girls, so she often received letters and gifts asking her to deliver them to her older brother on her way home from school.
It was different from my previous life.
In his previous life, he followed his older brother to Cheonil High School, but after his older brother died, he inherited bullying.
It was something that never happened in this life.
Now that he has not fallen into the abyss, to Hyunjin Kim, his older brother is a complete person who can be said to be an ideal.
Was that why?
After entering middle school, I didn’t mention my older brother’s existence.
Compared to his brother, he was really nothing, so he didn’t want to show off by borrowing his brother’s halo. Because it will all be a burden. Kim Hyun-jin realized too early at the young age of 14 that the more he wanted from his older brother, the more burden he had to shoulder.
And now.
My thoughts changed.
Didn’t Go Chang-beom say that?
Kim Hyun-seong is a special person, and she is willing to do anything for him.
came out
Kim Hyun-jin looked at his brother and said.
“I couldn’t tell my brother all this time, but I really thought I was a very inadequate person compared to him. My brother takes care of me, but he always gets good grades without going to any of the common academies, but my grades aren’t as good as his, so I say I need a private academy. So I had a lot of worries. “Rather than sacrificing himself for me, I wonder if it would be better for him to live without caring about me.”
“That is absolutely not the case. “My brother doesn’t think so.”
“know. What kind of person is my brother? Still, I hoped that my brother would not sacrifice himself, but after hearing Go Chang-beom’s words today, my thoughts changed. There is someone who would do anything for you, right? If going to school doesn’t mean it’s a burden, from now on I want to work hard to become a younger brother worthy of my older brother. Actually, I really wanted to go to academy. “If I do it like everyone else, at least I’m confident I won’t fall behind.”
A tone mixed with foolishness.
Kim Hyun-seong swallowed his words at the warm heart of his younger brother.
It was like this.
This is why I wanted to come back.
My one and only younger brother, my one and only grandmother.
I couldn’t handle the situation where I was falling into the abyss because of myself.
Aside from the clear goal of revenge, he had a great desire to return his family’s life to the way it was.
Hyunseong Kim said.
“Hyunjin. No matter what you think, my brother is a more capable person. So, you can be silly when I’m next to you, and if you need anything, you can tell me at any time. “No matter what it is, I will do it all.”
I laughed.
With that warm smile.
Hyunjin Kim also smiled brightly.
“I understand, bro.”
* * *
I sent my younger brother first.
My heart was warm.
New life.
I hoped for a situation like this.
A situation like this where my grandmother and younger brother laugh sincerely.
As I was quietly looking at Hyunjin’s back, Go Chang-beom, who came out of the cafe late, spoke to me.
“Am I okay?”
I turned my head.
Seeing that awkward smile, Kim Hyun-seong smiled slightly.
“Thank you very much. “It would have been an unreasonable request.”
“Well, this is it. It’s nothing compared to what you did. I told you so. “I will do anything for you.”
I meant it.
When I received Kim Hyun-seong’s phone call.
Go Chang-beom immediately packed his clothes and came out.
Other than being inconvenient, it wasn’t in the category of calculations.
He was that kind of person.
Although he has a foul temper and is careless, he goes around picking fights with others, but his arms are bent inward towards people who come into his enclosure. my people. It was the standard by which he divided the world. I don’t care if the people I think of as strangers die or not, but I still wanted my people to eat well and live well.
The same was true for Kim Hyun-seong.
He is a person who does a lot for himself, but going through all this trouble for him was really nothing.
Go Chang-beom and Go Chang-seok.
This was also the reason why Kim Hyun-seong chose Go Chang-beom among the two options.
Go Chang-beom is a person who cannot easily abandon people, so if he builds enough relationships, he will not ignore himself even when things happen in the future. Although common sense suggests that the easiest way would be to push Go Chang-seok, there was a reason for Kim Hyun-seong to elevate Ko Chang-beom to the chairmanship of Myungjin Construction.
Hyunseong Kim said.
“I said it before. Our relationship is quid pro quo. I will never forget what happened today. “As long as you don’t betray me, I will do whatever it takes to put Go Chang-beom in the position of chairman.”
“It’s pointless. Anyway, what should I do now? I brought Director Kim Cheol-jin in as you planned, but I don’t know what to do from now on. “You know you can’t convince your father with a simple faction fight.”
“I know.”
A plan in your head.
It proceeded steadily.
There were a few unexpected variables, but the situation only changed from ideal to ideal and did not deviate from the important framework.
For a perfect room.
There was something I had to prepare from now on.
“There is a place called Central Real Estate in Sangye-dong. Even in Daesan, it is a very small real estate because it is so rural, so get acquainted with the local real estate agent in advance and get the property for sale. And if ‘that property’ I mentioned last time comes up, please contact me right away.”
“Hmm. “Is that going to do anything?”
distant future.
It was bound to happen.
No matter how effective the butterfly effect is, it cannot erase what happened before you returned.
Kim Hyun-seong showed sharp eyes.
“Yes, I’m sure.”
Everything went according to plan.
November is now over.
The time to catch the bait that had been spread was approaching.
