The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius

Chapter 65

Whatever Dad was exactly in the past, he was definitely an amazing person.

That was a fact that came out just from compiling the information I’d heard.

Until just a moment ago, I only harbored resentment about the fact that despite having such an amazing career, he hadn’t come looking for me.

But after I stopped crying, my mind started working rationally again.

‘Dad was definitely right. If the Main Hall is still coveting Dad.’

Just from the fact that they were sending people, I could tell their interest was immense, whether for good or bad.

Then someone who could request something from Dad, and who Dad would uniquely listen to.

Would be both precious to them and overflowing with utility value.

We were getting ready to go home. Dad was holding me and I was fidgeting for no reason.

‘Ugh, it’s awkward seeing him after crying.’

While I was like this, Dad had an unperturbed expression, which made it even more awkward.

It felt like I was the only one being self-conscious.

“Before that, do we have to keep talking in this theoretical position? Can’t you put me down?”

“We need to talk.”

“Why?”

“Why are you asking why all of a sudden? To the Physician who conducted medical treatment on Father’s lap every day?”

Ugh. I puffed out my cheeks.

Dad chuckled softly.

“You could cut me some slack. I also need you to stay close to me… so I don’t think about home.”

“Thoughts of wanting to go home?”

“Yes.”

Right. This Dad had separation anxiety from home. I gently placed my hand on Dad’s cheek.

“Anyway, about what I said earlier. About being the only person who can command Dad. About having utility value.”

I cleared my throat with a cough.

“Do you understand what that means? It means I’ll become Dad’s weakness.”

“Would I have said it without knowing? Are you the one who forgot what I said?”

My hand fell away from Dad’s cheek.

“A sword is a tool that protects without ever leaving one’s side.”

Looking at it now, once his mouth opened up, he seemed to speak without knowing shame.

“From now on, I just need to stay close and always protect you, don’t I?”

Since when was he good at saying cringeworthy things? For someone like me who had lived my whole life calmly, these were words I had no immunity against.

…It was the first time I’d heard such words. How should I react at times like this?

But somehow it hurt my pride to say anything out loud.

The only action that came out naturally was to lightly pound Dad’s shoulder with my fist again.

“…You’re all just trying to act cool.”

A gentle wind sound could be heard from above.

“Oh dear, I suppose I’ll have to show it through actions.”

“Right. Prove it with actions!”

“Yes, I’ll prove it.”

“Geez!”

After finishing the conversation, I stretched out fully. I immediately had an intuition.

‘Today’s events are just the foundation.’

Then I quietly let my eyes gleam.

The Hei Family’s provocation. Sinion’s next scheme that was to come.

I knew that everything was just the beginning.

That night.

When I returned home, it was around evening. Uncle and Little Uncle were waiting at Dad’s house.

“Ppiyak, let’s eat!”

“Hey, I’m hungry.”

Uncle’s suggestion to have dinner together was fine up to that point.

The problem came after the meal was prepared!

“Wow, our Ppiyak is this amazing! A toast for Ppiyak!”

Uncle, Hei Biwon, was excitedly holding up something he’d gotten from who knows where toward the sky.

The current situation was… my screams flying around to prevent what was about to become a drinking session.

“Put it down! No drinking! No, where did you even get alcohol from?! I’m sure we threw it all away!”

Uncle used to secretly drink alcohol. It’s something he shouldn’t do as a patient.

That’s why Brother Gyewon and I joined hands to remove all the alcohol like an iron wall.

‘Where on earth did he get it from again?’

“Oh my, Little One. You shouldn’t underestimate Uncle!”

Watching me struggle desperately telling him not to drink, Uncle grinned slyly.

“The first person to secretly bring alcohol into Hei Gakdae was this great Uncle, Little One!”

“I’m not curious about that!”

Hei Gakdae refers to the largest and strongest martial organization in the Hei Family. Uncle’s past was slightly revealed, but is that the issue right now?

Drinking stimulates madness, you fool!

I hopped around Uncle but couldn’t reach him.

“You, you damn delinquent patient!”

“Haha, our Fairy~ Grow up for just 10 more years and come back~ Aww, just one drink~ Uncle had a hard day today.”

“Do you want to die? Put it down quickly!”

I quickly turned my head.

“Nephew! Why aren’t you stopping him?!”

But what’s this? Brother Gyewon smoothly avoided my eyes.

“Hahaha. I bought him off~ I bought him off~!”

I felt an unbearable sense of betrayal.

Wasn’t Brother Gyewon usually the son who took terribly good care of Uncle’s health?

“I told him to behave if he wants to go out again.”

“Wow….”

How completely underhanded. Using his own son’s outing privileges like this?

“…We agreed on about one cup. Ahem.”

“You call that one cup?”

Brother Gyewon seemed to have nothing to say either, clearing his throat awkwardly. One cup becomes two cups, then becomes one bottle!

“Uncle Poo, catch him!”

If I asked Dad, there would be a big fight. As a second choice, I called Uncle, but his reaction was lukewarm.

“Why should I.”

“If you catch him, I’ll treat you before Uncle Baek! I pwomise!”

“Oh my, catch that brother bastard!!”

Hei Birang jumped up and swung his hand sharply.

Cool water streams flowed from his fingertips and wrapped Uncle tightly.

And that wasn’t all.

“Hahaha, I caught him! Brother bastard!”

Whoooosh!

Water bombs fell from the sky. Uncle, who was caught in the water streams, helplessly became like a drowned mouse.

“…Huh?”

Uncle blinked his eyes and grinned as if it was absurd. For a moment, his eyes seemed to flash fiercely.

…Oh no.

Uncle and I became like puppies who ate honey side by side, looking at each other.

“…Hey, was I too harsh?”

Sorry. I’m going to give no comment.

“Ahem… As medicinal alcohol, about one cup might be okay….”

“What? What? Hey, hey! Hei Biyu!”

Hei Birang reached out toward me in surprise and panic, but the hand that grabbed the back of Hei Birang’s neck was faster.

“Hahaha, it’s cool even though it’s not midsummer?”

“Kek, b-brother? She made me do it!”

Uncle Baek, soaking wet, smiled with his handsome face. Perhaps because he was wet, his features looked even sharper.

“Uncle Baek, just one cup.”

“Hey, Hei Biyu you traitor!”

“Oh, good. Uncle keeps his promises well. And he’s also good at punishing the youngest, want to hear about it?”

“Aaaah! Let go, let me go! Brother! Ack, lightning, foul play! Foul play!!”

I subtly pretended not to notice Uncle Baek’s scars that were clearly visible under his wet clothes.

‘If I had met him when he got injured, I could have prevented the scars.’

The reason I suddenly felt regretful….</

Must be because I was gradually growing fond of this person.
