“Are you here again? “Are you hungry again?”
Jo Seung-ho headed to the break room with Jo Yoon-jeong, who came looking much more lively than yesterday.
“I got a call looking for you.”
“who? grandfather?”
“uh.”
“so?”
“I said I didn’t know.”
“okay. “Good job.”
“coffee?”
“no. “Just a drink.”
Seungho Cho said as he inserted a 100 won coin into the vending machine.
“How come the kimchi stew and egg rolls I ate yesterday were so delicious? “Your face looks nice.”
“Buy something like that and tell me. “You ran away without even paying.”
“Oh my gosh, are you trying to get it from me?”
“no. “I didn’t come here to talk about that today.”
“then?”
Seungho Cho handed Jo Yunjeong a drink.
“Oppa, you hid something from me, right?”
“What am I hiding? Oh, well, wearing one pair of panties for three days. Something like that?”
“Eight! Seriously, really! “Not like that.”
“doesn’t exist. men and horses.”
Jo Yoon-jeong opened the drink given to her by Jo Seung-ho and drank it down.
“Why isn’t it there?”
“what?”
“For example, I was raised by the people who killed my parents.”
In an instant, Seungho Cho’s expression hardened.
I want to know exactly
Cho Seung-ho dragged Jo Yoon-jeong out of the prosecutor’s office and headed to a quiet Japanese restaurant.
“Are you crazy?”
“Why are you so upset?”
“What bullshit are you talking about?”
“Then why did you come to this place?”
“Because you say bullshit in a crowded place!”
Cho Seung-ho had never told such a story to Jo Yun-jeong.
Jo Seung-ho asked the approaching employee for something and sent him away, then glared at Jo Yoon-jeong again.
Jo Yoon-jeong shrugged her shoulders and opened her mouth.
“Are you still writing in your diary?”
“what?”
diary.
Seungho Cho’s neck became stiff.
“When I was young, my hobby was stealing my brother’s carefully hidden diary. I guess it’s the only way out. “Maybe because they thought I was too young, they weren’t wary of me.”
“hey!”
“By chance, I found out where the diary was. It was written there. And it was very exciting. “I didn’t even know that I would actually carry out that plan.”
plan.
Seungho Cho took a gulp of water.
“··· How much do you know?”
“That my brother killed five people.”
“··· Yoon Jeong-ah.”
“I never thought a gas explosion would blow up the house on my uncle’s birthday. “At that time, my brother was in Seoul studying for the entrance exam, and I was spending all day at school for the entrance exam.”
Seungho Cho lowered his head with a sigh.
It was Cho Seung-ho who secretly watched his uncle stab his parents to death due to property issues.
Memories I wanted to forget came back to my mind.
“The person who was accused of killing my parents was executed immediately after being sentenced. How unfair would it be? I don’t know much about the situation at that time. “I only vaguely read it in my brother’s diary.”
“Yoonjeong!”
“But how was the incident in which five people died in an accidental explosion covered up?”
“··· What do you want to know?”
“The reason my brother lives like this is because of that guilt, right? “The trauma of having killed five people with his own hands.”
“shit!”
Jo Seung-ho gulped down the water again, and Jo Yoon-jeong grabbed the water cup and slowly turned it around.
“At that time, I had this thought. I think he carried out such a plan because he had faith in his brother. And, it was actually treated as an accidental death, right?”
“···.”
“I left us in the care of my uncle, who killed our parents, and the murderer who killed my uncle’s family is still acting as a prosecutor. It’s so amazing, who is it? “Someone who can put such an incident to rest.”
My younger brother was very smart.
The fact that we dug this far means that we already knew everything.
Seungho Cho sighed lightly and straightened his back.
“Since when did you know?”
“From an early age.”
“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“There’s nothing good for me because of that, right? “I still had to grow up with the killer’s money, and I needed my grandfather’s support even after the family was dead.”
“So what do you want to tell me?”
“Do you want revenge?”
“··· at all.”
Jo Yoon-jeong sighed and smiled.
“why? “That plan isn’t finished yet, is it?”
“you really···!”
“After experiencing the world, why did you realize that your grandfather was not an easy person and bow your head? But for something like that, life is really bad.”
“···.”
“You still hate your grandfather. Are you waiting for an opportunity to come at any time and continuing to serve as a rank-and-file prosecutor at the prosecutor’s office even after you get older? yes?”
For the first time, Seungho Cho got goosebumps from his younger brother.
Even though I know everything, I have been hiding it all this time.
Even though I knew everything, I joked around with them and treated them well.
“I feel like you’re a little scary.”
“I thought I could forget all that if I went to America. But it wasn’t. I keep becoming unable to trust people. I started to wonder what he was thinking inside while smiling like that. “That’s probably why there’s no one around me or my brother.”
“I still have friends to drink with.”
“I have a friend who wants to drink wine with me. And I am married and have children, but you have nothing, right?”
“Don’t make assumptions without knowing anything.”
Jo Seung-ho shook his head and raised his hand to order a drink, and the waiter immediately poured the drink into his glass.
“Let us end this nightmare. how is it?”
Jo Yoon-jeong said quietly.
“What are you talking about?”
“Let’s finish Jo Young-hwan.”
“What are you going to do now?”
“I will join hands with Choi Youngjun. But his grandfather is holding Gyeongjun oppa’s hand. “If Choi Kyung-jun takes over the group, I will be kicked out of the Hanyoung group again.”
“This is absurd. “It would be faster to have Jo Young-hwan hold Young-jun’s hand.”
Jo Yoon-jeong chuckled at those words.
“That won’t happen.”
“What do you mean?”
“You probably don’t know because my brother is a liberal arts student, but I am a science student. I also know biology pretty well. “I don’t know what happened in that complicated family, but Youngjun’s biological father is probably not Chairman Choi Kyung-hoon.”
“what?”
“I’m always out and about because I’m running a business, so I guess Mrs. An might have cheated on me. “If you can meet me later, take a good look at my chin.”
“chin?”
“Chairman Kyung-Hoon Choi had a cracked chin, and Kyung-Jun Choi, Sang-Jun Choi, and Oh-Jun Choi all had cracked jaws. But Youngjun is so shiny. A cleft chin is dominant.”
“··· So you’re saying that both Cho Young-hwan and Choi Kyung-hoon know?”
“Well, I guess so.”
“If Chairman Choi Kyung-hoon knows, doesn’t Choi Young-jun also pass over in the succession structure?”
“There is no reason for my grandfather, who values blood relatives and family, to hold Choi Young-jun’s hand. But Chairman Kyung-Hoon Choi would have accepted Young-Jun knowingly, given his personality.”
Soon the food came out, and Jo Yun-jeong ate a few pieces of raw fish without saying a word as if she was hungry.
Jo Seung-ho, who was quietly watching the scene, muttered quietly.
“There is no way that huge castle will collapse easily just because we do this. “Oh my gosh, man.”
Seungho Cho also ate some pieces of raw fish.
“…Grandpa is planning something.”
“What happened?”
“When I first came to Korea, I met my grandfather and Choi Kyung-jun and had a meal together.”
Jo Seung-ho’s sharp eyes momentarily glanced at Jo Yoon-jeong.
“I guess you’re planning to raise funds to buy Hanyoung Group stocks. They are probably trying to solidify the succession structure without Choi Kyung-hoon’s stake. “You need a lot of money to do that, right?”
“so?”
“But there’s no way my grandfather could raise funds through ordinary means. Wouldn’t you try to rob stupid and greedy people? “He’s a professional at that?”
“··· Leave it alone.”
“You can’t do it alone, brother. I can’t do it alone. We can’t do it alone. But if many people come together, maybe it will be possible?”
“Are you serious? “Is this the guy who was talking to Jo Yeong-hwan in a nose-blind voice a while ago?”
Jo Yun-jeong picked up the raw fish and soaked it in soy sauce for a while.
Then he picked up a bunch of mustard, put it on top, and put it in his mouth.
The salty and tangy taste must have been strong, but there was almost no change in expression on Jo Yoon-jeong’s face.
“That’s the characteristic of our Sinchang Jo family, right? “First of all, get rid of anything you don’t like or that gets in your way.”
“···.”
“Are you going to do it?”
“I’m going crazy. “The guy who was shedding tears like an idiot not long ago.”
“It’s a different story from crying and suffering. “You have to do what you have to do.”
The younger brother had a firm expression, and Seungho Cho closed his eyes for a moment.
Just enough time had passed for Jo Yoon-jeong to chew down two pieces of raw fish, and Jo Seung-ho opened his closed eyes.
“Are you going to move it yourself?”
Jo Yoon-jeong shook her head.
“it’s crazy? I still have to be Grandpa’s beloved parrot. That way you don’t let down your guard.”
**
sunday.
Kim Cheol-soo headed to Choi Kyeong-hoon’s house in a new Range Rover.
It was a car that Buhoho gave as a gift at his wedding.
‘It’s nice to have a nice car.’
Food prepared early in the morning was displayed in the trunk, and Kim Cheol-soo drove as slowly as possible in case the food spilled.
“Do you think it’s food I made?”
“Oh, I guess not?”
“what?”
“Won’t you know once you take a bite? “You probably think I did it.”
Choi Hye-na rushed at Kim Cheol-soo and pulled his cheek with two fingers.
“Ahh! “Nzunhug is this it?”
Although his cheeks were drooping and his pronunciation was sloppy, Kim Cheol-soo was still giggling.
“Ahyo, don’t say anything, I. Are not you tired?”
“How can you possibly be tired with such a lovely wife next to you?”
Choi Hye-na smiled pleasantly.
Seeing Hye-na like that, Kim Cheol-soo also laughed.
However, contrary to his expression, he was not very comfortable on the inside.
A person named Jo Young-hwan that I heard about from Jo Yoon-jeong.
Because he was a more dangerous person than you could imagine.
He had very close ties with the political, financial, and legal world.
In addition, since the 1970s, a scholarship foundation has been established to provide full support to students from difficult families.
Most of the students who received scholarships from the foundation entered society and became Cho Young-hwan’s people.
It was said that through this, the influence on Korea was enormous.
Making the legal illegal and the illegal legal.
Although it is said that his power has been weakened due to the recent change in government, he was still an iron-clad person that no one could touch.
– But why did you say it was related to Hye-na?
– I heard that directly from Chairman Kyung-Hoon Choi.
“Honey, what are you thinking?”
“uh? Well, I was wondering what kind of expression my father-in-law would make after eating this food.”
“Tsk. “Sometimes we have no idea what we are thinking.”
“If you try to know everything people think, you’ll get tired.”
“what the. You talk like you know everything? “So, do you want to guess what I’m thinking right now?”
Kim Cheol-soo slightly turned his eyes and smiled when he saw Hye-na.
“You were doubting me.”
“Ding!”
“Are you swearing at me?”
“Ding!”
“Um, I don’t know?”
“I’m thinking about the bag.”
“A bag?”
Choi Hye-na pointed to Kim Cheol-soo’s old bag placed in the backseat.
“That old bag. “I’ll buy you a proper bag for your birthday this year.”
“··· It’s still okay.”
“You wear expensive clothes, ties, shoes, and even expensive watches, but I don’t know why you only stick to those bags. “A bag is the epitome of elegance.”
“I will accept it well if you buy it for me as a birthday present. “But I’m not letting go of that bag right away.”
“Is there really something going on, that bag?”
“huh.”
Kim Cheol-soo nodded, and after a moment, he opened his mouth.
“This is the bag my father used to carry before he was laid off. “My father’s dream was to become the president of a company.”
“···.”
“I’m going to carry that bag with me until I become president. “That way, my resolve won’t waver.”
It was a calm tone, like a passing comment, but Choi Hye-na could tell that Kim Cheol-soo had just told the truth without any embellishment.
“all right. But since the bag has already been made to order and cannot be canceled, do I have to carry my own when I become the president?”
“sure. thank you.”
