Episode 86
…Isn’t this person crazy?!
Seosing-a, the money-obsessed child who was extremely sensitive about money to the point of staking her life on it, was absolutely furious!
I’ve never bought a single t-shirt with my own money, but 2 million euros is how much, 2.7 billion won?
As I stared at Bae Seo-nyeok in shock, ready to flip the table at any moment, Bae Seo-nyeok laughed.
“Didn’t you like it?”
Such shamelessness left me completely speechless!
I was so angry I felt like I might cry.
I was about to point my finger and demand he fix this somehow, when Bae Seo-nyeok said to Father.
“Let me give this to Sing-a as a gift.”
“Huh? What are you talking about, brother?”
“What would you do if you spent over 100 million and sister-in-law doesn’t like it? Wouldn’t it be better for your daughter to celebrate her parents’ wedding anniversary with a gift she received from outside, rather than you spending over 100 million of your own money? It’s safer.”
“…”
I obediently bent my pointing finger into a finger heart toward Bae Seo-nyeok.
“Sing-a. What. Do you have something to say?”
“Mmm~ No~.”
Seosing-a’s aegyo power fully loaded!
As I shot Bae Seo-nyeok my money-demon-exorcised innocent eyes while equipped with the pure lily of the valley version after a long time, Seo Shin-hyeon became serious.
“Hey. Brother. I have some dignity too, how could I do that! Think again! Can’t you give it to me instead of Sing-a!”
“…”
I quietly looked toward Cheong-song, who was eating dessert. I was very curious if the proposal to dip Seo Ssi in seawater was still valid…
“[2 million euros. Are there any more bids?]”
The auctioneer raised his hammer.
No one raised the price further, and people around us started looking our way one by one.
Coming to my senses at this, I became anxious and grabbed Bae Seo-nyeok’s forearm, shaking it.
This was a real situation! This wasn’t time for jokes or games.
“U-Uncle, do something about this. This is ridiculous. It’s too expensive. There are other things to give as gifts. It’s not like you don’t know anything like our father!”
Where in the world is there someone who gives a 2.7 billion won gift? Even the recipient would faint from the burden!
“Don’t worry. I have a lot of money.”
Yes. Of course you do! I know that all too well!
“And I still haven’t repaid you for the Pangyo thing. Accept it.”
Th-that’s…!
‘You’re right~!’
Very true words. A very reasonable reason!
Having regained my composure instantly, I quickly sat up straight.
How much money will Bae Seo-nyeok make from the Pangyo land? A whopping 100 billion, 100 billion!
Throughout the entire South Korean entertainment industry, Bae Seo-nyeok is probably the richest right now? Having secured the Pangyo land, he probably will be in the distant future too.
Who was it that turned someone who was already half from a chaebol family with a golden spoon into someone with a titanium spoon? It was me, the regressor Seosing-a.
If it weren’t for me, the regressor who can clearly see the future, would Bae Seo-nyeok have been able to devour the massive piece of meat called New City? It was all money I earned for him!
“[One… two… Sold! Congratulations!]”
Clang!
Applause burst out along with the solid sound of the hammer.
Whistles and cheers also mixed in from various places.
At tables near us, foreigners turned their bodies to offer congratulatory handshakes to Bae Seo-nyeok. Since it was an auction closer to an event than competition, everyone’s expressions were light.
With my mind and body at peace, I leisurely ordered ice cream while Bae Seo-nyeok exchanged small talk behind me.
‘How much would that necklace sell for if I sold it 10 years later?’
This uncle I got for free was truly a great man who knew gratitude~.
♧
“Who is it! Just who is it!”
Mrs. Jun Pierce, Jeon An-min, felt like she was going crazy!
How many wealthy people could currently be vacationing on this cramped Capri Island? Especially wealthy people who could mobilize large amounts of cash immediately!
【Blue Dedication】 was practically already engraved with Jeon An-min’s name before the auction even started.
And from the starting price of 1 million euros to 1.4 million euros.
As expected, the pace of increase was very slow, and Jeon An-min waited and leisurely bid 1.45 million euros.
2 billion won in Korean currency. About 1 million pounds by British standards.
It was the appropriate appraisal value for 【Blue Dedication】, and exactly the budget Jeon An-min had originally prepared.
But then.
‘2 million euros?!’
Suddenly doubling the bid? How unethical!
“Why are you making such a fuss? At this point, that item has no connection with you. Forget it.”
“I can’t do that!”
I’ve been eyeing it for 3 years, and because of whom have I been dragging this out until now?
Fine! If it weren’t for the trust fund that her successful younger brother deposits large sums into every year, this petty aristocratic man probably wouldn’t have agreed until the very end!
‘I’ll at least see who it is!’
Jeon An-min, who had developed stubbornness from consecutive misfortunes after losing the jewelry she’d targeted for 3 years right before her eyes.
With her Korean tenacity strangely activated, she left her grumbling husband behind and strode forward with quick steps.
The plaza where the event had ended was bustling with crowds that had grown as the sun set.
Bulgari wouldn’t take the precious successful bidder all the way to a distant boutique in this chaos.
It must be the hotel across the street!
“Bingo.”
A group of people in black suits entering one side of the hotel lobby.
With the momentum and speed rivaling ajummas exercising by the Han River, Jeon An-min quickly slipped her long leg through the closing door.
And then.
“…! Bae, Bae, Bae Seo-nyeok?!”
Bae Seo-nyeok, who was just about to sit at the table, looked up.
His handsome face immediately hardened coldly upon confirming his counterpart.
“…Jeon An-min?”
♧
Jeon An-min’s first husband, Mr. Lim, was a mixed-race person from Hong Kong.
In 1984, when Hong Kong’s return to China was decided, numerous Hong Kong middle class and elites emigrated en masse to Australia, Canada, and other places, and that man also became Australian that way.
But like people from East Asian cultural spheres, her husband often missed his hometown, and Jeon An-min also frequently stayed in Hong Kong for long periods following such a husband.
She met young Bae Seo-nyeok then.
The 1980s. It was a time when Koreans going abroad were rare, and wealthy Koreans among them were even rarer.
It wasn’t that the world was small, but the league they belonged to was small, so everyone inevitably became acquaintances through connections.
“Has it been about 15 years? I had no idea. That we’d meet in a place like this. I heard you’re doing entertainment in Korea. What kind of strange hobby is that for a young master? Didn’t the family elders oppose it?”
The Bulgari side, having finished the signing process with the buyer, kindly even vacated their seats. Telling them to take their time talking.
Jeon An-min, sitting with her legs crossed, spoke arrogantly.
“Actually, this worked out well. This will make the conversation quick. 【Blue Dedication】, please give it up for me. I’ll pay the appropriate price. You can give some discount, can’t you. We have a connection.”
Slurp…
“That’s a jewel I’ve been eyeing for 3 years. To me, it’s not just a simple jewel. I’m a fire-earth-earth-metal person. Without water energy, I crack and split. Astrologically, I absolutely need sapphire. Do you understand what I’m saying… Bae Seo-nyeok! Are you listening to me?”
Sip sip…
“But why is that little kid still sitting here sipping away?!”
Across from Jeon An-min, who was shouting angrily.
Seosing-a, who had been sipping the tea Bae Seo-nyeok poured for her, shrank back and looked at her.
