Episode 126
“Ohohohohoh.”
“…?”
“Hohohohoh.”
Hyeon Yuseong glanced at his mother, Mrs. Ju, with serious eyes.
Ever since returning from the department store earlier, his mother had been continuously making these strange laughing sounds. Along with a smile that seemed both sinister and full of dark schemes.
Unless she had contracted some serious illness, there was no reason for her to make such laughing sounds.
Perhaps her vocal cords had malfunctioned?
“Such laughter would hardly inspire confidence in shareholders, Mother.”
“Shareholders? You kids can worry about that now. This mother is washing her hands of everything and living a second life.”
“….”
Was she really ill somewhere?
Yusong began to genuinely worry.
What kind of person was Mrs. Ju? Even after stepping back from the front lines to solidify her two sons’ management rights, she was a formidable woman who would immediately seek out her sons to set things straight the moment she sensed even the slightest drop in stock prices.
If company performance was even slightly poor, she would grab and shake the executives—stopping just short of grabbing them by the collar or hair—and this person was making such sounds?
“Did you perhaps eat something wrong? If you go to hyung, he could arrange an examination—”
“This child has no words he won’t say to his mother!”
Mrs. Ju immediately shouted.
How could such a cute and soft child come from such a vicious and pathetic man!
It was truly the mystery of the century. So much so that she wanted to order her eldest son to immediately pivot toward genetic research starting today.
‘No. Hold back, hold back. Anyway, our lovely granddaughter is that scoundrel’s biological daughter.’
Mrs. Ju composed herself.
“Well then, let me ask you one thing. What would you do if your daughter-in-law happened to have a child?”
“….”
At the word ‘child,’ Yusong’s face immediately hardened.
‘!’
It was Mrs. Ju who was surprised by that reaction.
Since he loved his wife so terribly, she had thought her son would be completely devoted to her?
“…I would have to adopt them. I wouldn’t mind that much.”
“…?”
Don’t tell me this fool thought she meant another man’s child, not his own?!
Mrs. Ju was shocked.
“No, you… fool! I mean your child. Your child!!”
“Ah.”
At the words ‘your child,’ Yusong’s face immediately relaxed (though to others it still looked like a stern expression).
“I think that’s a meaningless question, Mother. What is the intent behind your question?”
“….”
Though he was speaking in roundabout ways, Mrs. Ju could immediately understand Yusong’s meaning.
It was a way of speaking that made her want to slap him every time she heard it, but after raising him for thirty-odd years, she could roughly understand.
What he meant was, ‘Why are you asking something so obvious? Of course I’d pluck the stars and moon for them, and wage war if necessary.’
“Fine. That level of resolve is enough.”
Mrs. Ju clicked her tongue as if displeased.
In truth, there was one thing weighing on her mind.
‘…It seems like it won’t be easy to beat those uncles and bring the child here….’
Mrs. Ju had seen the look in Lee Doha’s eyes when he looked at Yewon.
It wasn’t simply the look of a young man who had gained a niece to care for.
That young man truly loved the child with his whole heart. So clearly that even Mrs. Ju could see it distinctly from afar.
If that young man hadn’t cherished and loved her granddaughter so extremely, Mrs. Ju would have prepared for many things and tried to bring Yewon over immediately.
Because she was such a precious granddaughter.
But the way Yewon and Lee Doha looked at each other.
It wasn’t something a grandmother who had never even met her face-to-face could interfere with.
‘To overcome that kind of relationship, at least the biological father would have to step in.’
Mrs. Ju sighed.
She could clearly see how all the young men there loved and raised Yewon with such tender care.
Coaxing Yewon away from such young men would really be no easy task.
‘…If it comes to that, well….’
She could just bring them all as a set.
‘If even that doesn’t work!’
Mrs. Ju resolved.
If everything failed, she would boldly abandon her son and move into that house herself!
Even if it meant reclaiming all the companies she had given to her son!
‘A gift like Hion should be enough for them to accept this old body!’
* * *
While Mrs. Ju was earnestly nurturing her ambitions.
“…Achoo.”
Lee Doha coughed, feeling strangely chilly.
“What? If you caught a cold, get away from the kid quickly. No, just disappear from this world. Without you, the kid would be mine.”
“…It was just a sneeze….”
Lee Doha felt very conflicted emotions about Eon’s violent statement.
Should he be happy that Eon liked our Yewon so much, or should he be scared….
“By the way, isn’t today that day? The day 【This Life I’m an Actor】 airs?!”
At Weon’s words—who was practically creating art with Yewon’s hair—Yeonho immediately turned on the TV.
All the GLEET members had been looking forward to this episode.
Not only was there only one episode left until the finale, but more importantly—
‘That brat!!! I need to check if that brat acted friendly with Yewon again!!!!!’
‘If he acts friendly again in this episode, I’ll really find some way to follow them around and build an iron wall.’
‘Why is Yewon… so kind to all her friends… Should I teach her to be a little colder…?’
‘…This one at least looked stronger than the previous one.’
…Recently, there was a boy who had caught GLEET’s attention.
A boy named ‘Mun Hyeok,’ who was suspiciously handsome and a whole two years older than Yewon.
In fact.
Previously, the ‘diagnostic evaluation’ episode of 【This Life I’m an Actor】 had become a minor topic among viewers.
Because viewers really liked the ‘Baek Yun-Yewon-Hyeok’ love triangle.
Everyone thought it was almost a given that Yewon would take the female lead role, and they would fight on SNS over who would take the male lead role.
Title: Why are you guys even fighting about this
Don’t you know same-age couples are the trend?
The Baek-Won couple already has proven chemistry, so why are you even thinking about it?
It’s just like those kids who only come to their senses after investing in stocks wrong and losing everything (speaking from experience)
Title: There are still clueless people holding onto the older guy
Of course it’s the older guy
How is this even a debate
I want to see fresh age-gap chemistry instead of already-used boring chemistry, you clueless people!!!!!!!
Ugh!!!!!!!!!
…like this.
Of course, this was purely from the viewers’ perspective.
“….”
“….”
“….”
“Hey. Seo Yeonho. Skip the opening. Why are you watching when the kid’s face isn’t even showing?”
The perspective of these four petty uncles was completely different.
“…Yewon’s name came up…”
“Then it’s worth it. Leave it.”
Eon immediately responded to Doha’s timid statement of principle.
The four members seated Yewon in the middle of the sofa and took their respective positions.
Lee Doha: Leader, main vocalist, center, and person in charge of massaging Yewon’s feet to keep them warm
Hanwon: Main dancer, sub rapper, and person in charge of making princess hairstyles like those in Soft and Cute Ping with Yewon’s hair
Ian: Visual, mascot, fan love fan service fandom expert, sub vocalist, and person in charge of feeding yogurt to Yewon
Seo Yeonho: Main rapper and remote control errand boy
And Yewon already sighed at the uncles’ anticipated anger (actually tears).
I mean, what would I do with a 9-year-old…!
“Uncles… You know this was already finished filming, right…? You know the results are already out, right…?”
“No way!!!!!!!! No spoilers!!!!! Even if it’s our baby’s refreshing moment, that’s not allowed!!!! Hey!!!!”
“….”
Let’s just give up.
Yewon quickly resigned herself.
