Chapter 141
141: Gifts Pour In! (4)
“I, I, I, I.”
At Dohyun’s entrance, Chanmin stood frozen as if buffering, unable to string words together. Ever since changing jobs and seeing his income increase, he’d been saving money while developing an interest in luxury goods, so he could recognize it at a glance.
The brands on the shopping bags Dohyun carried were each extraordinary. Particularly the women’s handbags were from quite famous brands, but the watch brands included high-end labels that only connoisseurs would recognize, causing Chanmin to swallow hard.
At first glance alone, the total easily exceeded tens of millions of won, yet Han Seunghee, Dohyun’s family, shook her head in disapproval, while Lee Seonghun, Chanmin’s youngest uncle and Dohyun’s father, watched with sparkling eyes full of anticipation.
Dohui, like Lee Seonghun, had sparkling eyes wondering what her gift might be, leaving Chanmin unable to continue his thoughts.
‘What, what on earth is this??? Did, did he not just get a job?’
Even if Dohyun had joined a large corporation like himself, he couldn’t have earned this much money all at once, so Chanmin considered other possibilities.
He wondered if Dohyun was running a business, but could someone really spend such large sums on gifts for family in just one year of business?
It was possible, but at least Chanmin didn’t think the Dohyun he knew possessed such business acumen. He’d watched him since childhood as a relative, so he thought he knew Dohyun well, but perhaps he didn’t.
Dohyun, who had brought such abundant gifts, smiled brightly, clearly satisfied with his family’s reactions. It wasn’t bad to indulge himself, but providing for his family like this brought him joy too.
Dohyun stepped forward and approached Seonghan Lee, the eldest uncle, to hand over a gift.
It was none other than.
“A, a Rolex!?”
Seonghan Lee cried out as if having a fit, visibly startled. But Dohyun smiled at his reaction and spoke.
“Yes, it’s a Rolex. A holiday gift.”
“I, is it really, really okay to accept this???”
Seeing Seonghan Lee’s genuine question, Dohyun nodded. Since he’d bought it to give away, it would be awkward if it wasn’t accepted, so he held it out to his eldest uncle.
No matter what, the gift from his nephew was too grand, so Seonghan Lee tried to push it back with his hand, but somehow it stuck fast and wouldn’t come off. Even as he tried to push, the Rolex remained magnetized to his palm, and Seonghan Lee’s eyes widened.
Normally it would be impolite to open a gift immediately upon receiving it, but when Seonghan Lee looked at Dohyun and Dohyun nodded readily in approval, he was able to remove the brilliant green Rolex case from the shopping bag.
Upon receiving it, Seonghan Lee made another sound.
“Wh, what!?!”
He’d never touched a Rolex before, but the moment he felt the case, he could tell immediately.
‘This, this is genuine!’
Seonghan Lee, who had been about to refuse, opened the case as if bewitched by a demon, revealing the brilliant splendor of a golden Rolex inside.
Seeing Seonghan Lee’s mouth hanging open, his wife Mijin Jeong spoke.
“A, a fly could fly in.”
Though she said this, Mijin Jeong’s pupils were trembling considerably too. She couldn’t fathom why he was giving away a Rolex like this. But Dohyun simply smiled at her reaction and handed over another shopping bag.
If the Rolex had a brilliant green hue, this time Dohyun pulled out a shopping bag with a brilliant orange glow—Hermès—and held it out to Mijin Jeong, who reacted no differently than Seonghan Lee.
“Wh, what!?!”
Making a sound as if she were a patient with high blood pressure, Mijin Jeong’s mouth fell open as she accepted the bag as if enchanted.
Then her eyes met Dohyun’s, and like with his eldest uncle, Dohyun nodded readily. Mijin Jeong swallowed hard.
Gulp.
A sound like thunder as she swallowed, and when Mijin Jeong removed the orange box from the shopping bag, a sky-blue handbag of distinctly different quality appeared.
As Mijin Jeong’s eyes and mouth fell open—she adored sky blue—Dohyun offered a brief explanation.
“I heard that Eldest Aunt loves sky blue most, so I bought a sky-blue handbag.”
“Oh, oh my, I’m, I’m overwhelmed.”
“No, this much is fine.”
As Dohyun said this, all the relatives couldn’t help but feel as though a halo was shining behind his back.
When Dohyun presented an Hermès bag as a gift with such genuine composure, both adults and children alike gazed at him with admiration and respect.
Next, I gave my Second Uncle, Seongho Lee, and his wife, Jisoo Kim, the same Rolex watches and Hermès handbags. Seongho’s Rolex was also encircled in gold, but unlike Seonghan Lee’s green-faced watch, his was black, causing both Seongho and his wife Jisoo’s eyes to widen in astonishment.
Jisoo Kim received a modest black Hermès handbag, and as expected from Hermès, the refined leather looked anything but ordinary at first glance.
As the recipients stood bewildered, unsure what to say after receiving their gifts, Dohyun’s gift-giving was far from over.
When I gave my mother and father Hermès handbags and Rolex watches, Lee Seonghun broke into a broad smile, while Han Seunghee sighed as if I were wasting money, yet couldn’t help but smile as she gazed at the handbag.
The power of gifts was truly remarkable.
After distributing gifts to all the adults, the younger generation—the children—began to grow nervous.
Despite having given gifts to all the adults, shopping bags still remained.
Chanmin appeared the most anxious, watching me with trembling eyes, and sure enough, I approached him.
“Here, this one’s for you, brother.”
“Wh-wh-wh-Tag Heuer?”
“Oh? You recognize it?”
“…gulp.”
Chanmin, like his father Seonghan Lee, swallowed hard and accepted the shopping bag as if mesmerized, then opened the box bearing the Tag Heuer emblem. Inside gleamed a luminous rectangular watch.
Unlike Rolex, Tag Heuer’s lower-priced lines were within reach if Chanmin pushed himself, but what I had given him was from the Monaco line—a signature line famous among Tag Heuer’s collections.
Upon seeing it, Chanmin accepted the watch, which was worth at least double his monthly salary, and swallowed hard.
He didn’t even feel disappointed that it wasn’t a Rolex.
Rather.
‘This is… the one I wanted to buy…!’
Having been saving money to realistically purchase this watch, Chanmin was so moved to receive it as a gift that he spoke to me with genuine satisfaction in his eyes.
“Th-th-thank you, Dohyun.”
“It’s nothing much.”
I picked up the remaining shopping bags and approached Chanmi next, and she looked at me as if asking whether she would receive something too. I smiled playfully and spoke.
“No, Chanmi, you’re family too, so of course I should give you something.”
“Wh-wh-what? Th-thank you.”
Unlike the adults’ Hermès, she received a Saint Laurent shopping bag, which was extremely popular among women. When she opened the box inside, she could see a refined black handbag.
Chanmi’s eyes widened, and as she trembled with emotion while gazing at the handbag, she swallowed hard.
Wondering if she could really accept this, Chanmi looked at Han Seunghee, the youngest aunt, but she simply nodded reassuringly at her.
What on earth was happening?
With that thought, as the entire family looked at me, I casually tossed a shopping bag to my younger sister, Dohui. She was delighted with just that and exclaimed.
“Yes! Thank you, oppa!!!”
“Ugh, get out of here.”
When Dohui tried to cling to me while thanking me, I told her to scram, and then I handed iPads—not luxury bags, but quite valuable nonetheless—to the youngest, Minyeong and Minjoo.
Rather, the two of them sparkled with even more joy than if they’d received bags, looking at me with shining eyes.
“I saw last time that you two were desperate to get iPads, so I bought them for you. I got the best models, so use them well.”
“Wow, we love you, Dohyun oppa!!!”
“Really!!! Thank you so much!!!”
“Ugh, you two get out of here too.”
I spoke gruffly, but a slight smile played at my lips, and the family laughed warmly at the sight. However, while the adults were genuinely pleased with their gifts, they became curious about how I had suddenly come into such substantial money, and they looked at me with questioning eyes.
Finding it difficult to ask directly, they couldn’t bring themselves to inquire outright and instead watched me with subtle glances, so I spoke to these curious adults.
“Oh, it’s nothing much. I’ve become a Hunter, and I earn decent money, so please don’t feel burdened.”
“What?!”
“A, a Hunter!?”
“You mean the one who goes into the Black Gate!?”
“Oh my!”
The adults around Dohyun startled at his words and hastily began stuffing the gifts they’d been subtly wearing back into their boxes. I understood their reaction—to them, being a Hunter meant risking one’s life, after all.
Han Seunghee, Dohyun’s mother, had the same reaction. But Dohyun simply smiled and spoke to the adults.
“Honestly, if I’m giving gifts at this level, it means I’m skilled enough not to die in the field. Don’t worry.”
At Dohyun’s words, Chanmin nodded as if he finally understood.
After all, Hunters these days were called nouveau riche for a reason. Even F-rank Hunters could earn more than a large corporation’s starting salary with effort, so Chanmin could accept it quickly.
And so.
“Dohyun’s right. Hunters earn good money, but earning this well means Dohyun has real ability.”
“Is, is that so?”
“W, we should know these things.”
“Ahem, but still, to accept gifts bought with one’s life on the line….”
Even with Chanmin’s support, the adults still seemed hesitant, so Dohyun spoke as if he had no choice.
“By the way, I’m currently training under Association President Han Muyeol, so you really don’t need to worry.”
“Ah! Under Hunter Han Muyeol!?”
“Oh my! Is that so!?”
“That explains it!”
“Ah.”
At Dohyun’s words, Han Seunghee, who had heard something similar before, looked at him in surprise. Once the tension eased, everyone accepted the gifts and smiled brightly while expressing their gratitude to Dohyun.
“My! Thanks to our Dohyun, we get to receive gifts like these!”
“I never thought I’d have a connection with Hermès in my lifetime!”
“Me too! Me too, I get to wear a Rolex.”
“Hehe, truly.”
As everyone laughed so warmly together, Dohyun could finally smile broadly.
