◈ Episode 70: Fix your speaking habits (3)
Yan Lang was very unhappy with this situation.
He did not like his mother, who had never shown her face when he was imprisoned in the White Lotus Palace, but suddenly visited him.
Even though she never thought of herself as a daughter, she did not like her mother, who asked her to return as a member according to the family’s will.
Above all, although he was trying to hide it more than before, he clearly did not like his mother who was looking at him with disgust.
Yes, from top to bottom, there wasn’t a single thing I didn’t like about her.
Until a little while ago.
“I beg your pardon?”
“Then what are you going to do?”
Her mother, who had never frowned just a moment ago, was standing right in front of her, frowning mercilessly.
In front of him, Kim Joo-hyuk was opening his mouth with a smile that bordered on ridicule.
“Now, are you saying that a mere student is better than the constellation of our Seol family?”
“How many times are you going to check?”
“… … “You’re crazy, you.”
“Isn’t it better than just saying what you have to say?”
“I beg your pardon?”
“Is that so? Just because you’re a little older, you don’t think about others and just say what you have to say. You don’t think I’ll be polite to you, do you? Of course not~ If you have a conscience.”
“Just a student… … !!”
Wow!
When Kim Joo-hyuk scoffs with a blatant smile, Seol Yeon-hwa scatters her magical power in all directions as if she is about to get heated.
However, Kim Joo-hyuk still answered without losing his smile.
“Think well, Mrs. Teuttak.”
“what?”
“I heard it was applied to you Yan Lang too? He loses to me… … “Do you think she’ll beat me?”
“!”
“Think hard and think about what kind of news would be spread around the world if you were to fall behind me here.”
A sarcasm similar to Kim Joo-hyuk’s teasing.
Seol Yeon-hwa looked at Kim Joo-hyuk with wide-open eyes, but soon lost her magic with a sound.
“You behave well.”
After hearing Kim Joo-hyuk’s sarcastic voice, she looked at him with her still tightly closed mouth and then opened her mouth.
“Then prove it.”
“what?”
“I’m asking you to prove whether you, a mere student, are better than the real ‘constellation’!”
“how?”
“I will help you meet the Constellation. If you are recognized by the Holy See there, I will also recognize you.”
Kim Joo-hyuk responded to Seol Yeon-hwa’s words with a tired smile.
“What are you betting on?”
“I beg your pardon?”
“What are you betting on? Are you really going to tell me to just do it? If that’s the case, of course I won’t do it~”
“what… … !”
“Why should I bother to meet your constellation and prove that I am superior when I have nothing to gain?”
“that… … !”
“Oh, or is it really scary to bet on something? Do you think that the guy who always described himself as just a student might possibly win over his constellation?”
“That kind of nonsense… … !”
Seolyeonhwa roars again.
Kim Joo-hyuk still spoke with a smiling expression.
“If not, what can I bet? “If you are so sure.”
“… … great.”
Seol Yeon-hwa accepted Kim Joo-hyuk’s offer with a frown on her face.
and.
“… … .”
Yan Lang was staring blankly at Kim Joo-hyuk’s back.
####
After Seol Yeon-hwa left, Kim Joo-hyuk was able to hear past stories about the family from Yan Lang.
To be exact, the story of Yan Lang’s past.
And it wasn’t long before Kim Joo-hyuk heard all about Yan Lang’s past.
“Isn’t it Gura?”
“Why do I lie?”
Yanlang opens his mouth with a stern expression.
Looking at her like that, Kim Joo-hyuk made a blank expression for a moment before speaking.
“Is this a completely crazy person?”
Kim Joo-hyuk recalled the story he heard from Yan Lang.
Yan Lang showed exceptional genius from a very young age.
After proving her genius, she began to grow up receiving the expectations of her family and, above all, the expectations of her parents.
Therefore, she did not hide her genius and showed it as it was, achieving tremendous growth and beating the eldest and second daughter of the family at a young age.
The problem starts from there.
The second daughter and the eldest daughter, who were defeated by Yan Lang at a very young age, felt envy and jealousy towards the young Yan Lang and began to pour out gossip and spread absurd rumors about her within the family.
At that point, Yan Lang was hurt, but he continued his training.

The eldest daughter and second daughter began to gossip about her behind her back, and the view of Yan Lang within the family was not kind, but she clearly thought that her parents trusted her.
however.
“… … “After your parents robbed you, they treated you as someone who didn’t exist in the family, right?”
Yan Lang nods his head silently.
Kim Joo-hyuk frowned and said, as if he didn’t understand.
“Why on earth? No shit, am I weird? “Shouldn’t you be happy if one of your daughters turns out to be a genius?”
“I thought so too. But she beat that girl, and at the same time she heard what the ‘Guardian Constellation’ said and she started treating me like I didn’t exist.”
“What did the Guardian Constellation say?”
“I don’t know the details. “I vaguely heard about it from a maid with whom I was close.”
“… … I don’t know what the cubs are, but she treated her daughter for a year without her daughter, and you’re trying to bring it back to what the constellation said. ”
“That’s why I don’t want to go.”
Yan Lang frowns.
Kim Joo-hyuk laughed and answered.
“It’s not that I don’t want to go, but I’m not guilty if I just want to blow up the family?”
“So, what are you going to do?”
“what?”
“… … “You promised, with her.”
Yan Lang said that and looked at him with a slightly worried expression.
Earlier, Kim Joo-hyuk made a promise to the head of the Seol family.
Also, a promise that seems impossible to beat.
“I will go directly into the enemy camp and receive recognition from the guardian constellation of the Seol family. “Does that make any sense?”
“Why do you think I can’t do it?”
“… … .”
Yan Lang was momentarily silent at Kim Joo-hyuk’s words.
Kim Joo-hyuk is strong.
Yan Lang had already realized this fact several times while being his disciple.
But even so, this was a slightly different problem.
There was an essential difference between constellations and humans.
Humans defeat the Constellations?
That made no sense, Yan Lang was clearly thinking in his head.
however.
‘… … .’
Strangely, I don’t know why, but Yan Lang felt awkward saying such a thing to Kim Joo-hyuk.
so that.
“… … no.”
Yanrang answered that way without realizing it.
“I know very well.”
Kim Joo-hyuk smiled and responded to Yan Lang’s answer.
A moment of silence.
Yan Lang spoke again.
“But no matter how you think about it, isn’t it a bit wrong to just storm into the enemy’s territory? “You’ve already made enemies with that woman, right?”
“You’re not attacking, are you?”
“No, but they don’t know what they did? “I think it’s because you don’t know, but you can just think of China as the front yard of the Seol family.”
“okay?”
“okay!”
“Well, you don’t have to worry though. “I’m usually the type of person who prepares for anything like that.”
“… … “Preparation?”
“There is such a thing.”
Kim Joo-hyuk said that and smiled, and Yan Lang looked at him as if he was strange, but then asked carefully.
“by the way.”
“why.”
“Why are you doing this?”
“what?”
“Well, actually, if you had stayed still, it wouldn’t have been this bothersome, right?”
Yan Lang was with Kim Joo-hyuk for about a month and a half.
However, during that month and a half, Yan Lang was able to figure out quite a lot about Kim Joo-hyuk.
From what he understood, Kim Joo-hyuk was never the kind of person who would do such a tiresome job with no gain.
But what about this time?
Even though Kim Joo-hyuk clearly had nothing to gain from this incident, he promised to fly to his hometown and receive recognition from the Holy See.
Yanrang didn’t understand that, so he asked a question.
And Kim Joo-hyuk.
“Because I’m a tease.”
“… … what?”
“I picked you?”
I answered like that.
Of course, Kim Joo-hyuk’s answer was not a joke but was sincere.
‘He is a piece of trash that has a slave mindset and throws away his own daughter without even knowing it.’
At least that’s how Seol Yeon-hwa appeared in Kim Joo-hyuk’s eyes.
Of course, at that point, Kim Joo-hyuk might not have even thought about moving.
however.
‘You’re an idiot for keeping quiet when you’re arguing with me so openly.’
Kim Joo-hyuk was the type of person who didn’t shy away from a fight, and more than anything else, he had something to gain by betting.
In short, from Kim Joo-hyuk’s perspective, he accepted this job because he had nothing to lose.
“… … .”
From Yan Lang’s perspective, who does not know that fact, looking at Kim Joo-hyuk who somehow seems to have done something for him.
“… … thank you.”
I just expressed my timid gratitude to Kim Joo-hyuk with a lukewarm look.
####
Seol Yeon-hwa did not like the current situation.
I didn’t like the fact that the Constellation wanted that monster.
He also didn’t like the monster that didn’t listen to his words and just wrote evil things.
Above all, he didn’t like the student who had ruined his reputation in front of his face.
“… … Kim Joo-hyuk”
I knew about him.
No, he had already become a huge celebrity in the contractor industry, so much so that it was strange not to know him well.
And that’s why Seol Yeon-hwa felt truly regretful.
‘If only he wasn’t famous.’
She felt so insulted by Kim Joo-hyuk that she seriously thought about writing ‘Manpower’.
That’s because Kim Joo-hyuk cursed his own family, and furthermore, he cursed the guardian constellation who made Seolga what it is today.
But she knew.
That using ‘manpower’ at this point is a very immature and foolish thing to do.
‘Let’s hold on, for now.’
That’s why Seol Yeon-hwa endured the rising pain.
Anyway, when tomorrow comes and Kim Joo-hyuk meets the Holy See, he will be strangled by the promise he made.
Ugh-!
While I was organizing my thoughts, my smartphone rang.
Seol Yeon-hwa immediately lifted the smartphone in her arms.
“?”
Soon she tilted her head when she saw a call from a number that was not saved on her smartphone.
Talk.
Soon she answered the phone.
[Nice to meet you. The head of the Snow family, my name is Adelia Bentrick, the head of the Ventrick family.]
Seol Yeon-hwa asked back in a questioning voice at the voice that was soon heard.
“… … “The Ventrick family?”
[That’s right.]
“… … “Why did the head of the Ventrick family suddenly contact me about something?”
[We have contacted you to give you advice.]
“… … Advice, you say?”
Seol Yeon-hwa, realizing that there was a bit of hostility mixed in her tone, let out an uncomfortable voice. Adelia Bentrick opened her mouth as if she didn’t care at all.
[Now listen carefully. The head of the Seol family. If you are thinking of causing any harm or damage to Kim Joo-hyuk, you should also think about dealing with the Bentrick family head-on.]
“I beg your pardon?”
[The advice ends here. Think carefully.]
Pop.
The phone was soon hung up.
‘… … ‘What on earth?’
Seol Yeon-hwa looked at the disconnected smartphone with an expression of incomprehension.
