Episode 164
“…?”
Meanwhile, Lee Doha, who was barely adapting to the car’s extraordinarily high speed, noticed the Driver sitting beside him continuously speaking urgently into a wireless microphone to someone.
What was happening?
The situation didn’t look good at all….
Since they were conversing in Japanese, it was difficult to understand immediately, but as a seventh-year Idol, I could grasp the gist of it.
-…We’re just doing a test drive, but this is way too dangerous. What on earth is going on?
-I have no idea. We keep telling that driver to back off, but we can’t reach them at all—either the communication equipment is broken or something.
-Tell them to back off right now. At this rate, we’re going to have a real accident!
“!”
An accident?
Only then did Lee Doha manage to turn his head and confirm the car that was dangerously close behind them.
What on earth was this?
-We still have some distance to the Pit. This won’t work. I need to get out of here.
-No. The Publicity Team said we absolutely have to get good footage. Just drive to the Pit.
-Damn it.
“….”
I didn’t fully understand, but one thing was certain—the situation was turning serious.
Lee Doha clenched his lips tightly.

Meanwhile, inside Yusong’s car.
Yusong confirmed the car dangerously tailgating Lee Doha’s vehicle and narrowed his brow.
With so many people watching, they wouldn’t ram the car, but if they continued threatening driving like this, there was a high possibility that the Driver operating Lee Doha’s car would accidentally cause an accident.
I had to create an opening for Lee Doha’s car to escape somehow.
Yusong exhaled a sigh and pulled up directly beside the suspicious car.
“!”
Startled by the sudden intervention, the suspicious car finally reduced its speed slightly.
Thanks to that, Lee Doha’s car gained space to escape and immediately pulled away from the suspicious vehicle.
Thank goodness.
Yusong felt a small wave of relief.
It seemed I wouldn’t hear my daughter say “I really hate you, Dad!” just yet.
But then.
Whoooooosh—
The suspicious car began accelerating again, as if attempting to chase down Lee Doha’s vehicle once more.
It seemed they hadn’t given up yet.
From the looks of the situation, they had no intention of backing off until an accident occurred.
…There’s no helping it.
I was trying to resolve this peacefully.
Yusong clicked his tongue with a tsk.
Before that car could successfully chase down Lee Doha’s vehicle again, I would need to make a move first.
He thought of his daughter watching this scene unfold, and drew a deep breath.
And then.
Crash!
Without hesitation, he rammed the suspicious vehicle head-on.
* * *
“Dad!”
Unable to contain herself any longer, Yewon cried out in alarm.
She had been too startled by the cars racing at incredible speeds to think clearly.
The strange car had been harassing Uncle’s vehicle, and then suddenly Dad rammed into it!
With a deafening crash, both cars skidded to a halt, leaving long black tire marks in their wake.
Yewon bolted upright and looked back at the bodyguards.
They immediately scooped her up and began running toward Yusong.
“D-Dad…!”
“Please don’t worry, Miss. Vehicles like that are designed with exceptional safety features to protect the driver. I’m certain the CEO will be perfectly fine.”
The bodyguards did their best to appear unaffected.
If the CEO returned alive, he would definitely say, ‘Why did you frighten my Yewon? Write me a formal apology this instant!’
‘He’s the type to care more about the young lady’s shock than his own injuries!’
‘Of course. If she cries, he’ll make us write apologies in blood.’
But Yewon could not remain calm.
“What?! B-But… those cars were going so incredibly fast and they collided…!”
“It’s fine. He’ll probably walk out without a single scratch.”
A lie!
Look at how hard they’re running right now! They’re clearly anxious!!
Yewon swallowed her protest and clung tightly to the bodyguard’s neck.
She had only wanted to protect Uncle, but he had recklessly risked his own life like this…!
It was truly touching, but this was absolutely not what Yewon wanted.
What she wanted was for everyone to be safe—not for everyone except Lee Doha to die!
“W-We’ve a-arrived, Miss. Look over there? Right now… we can….”
“!”
Yewon turned her head in the direction the bodyguard was pointing.
Numerous people had rushed out and were surrounding both Yusong’s car and the suspicious vehicle, frantically extracting the occupants.
And….
“The CEO is walking out on both feet without a scratch.”
Yusong calmly regarded them and leisurely stepped out of the car.
“….”
“….”
Indeed, he appeared completely unharmed—not even a hair out of place.
The bodyguards felt embarrassed about their frantic dash and scratched their heads.
He could have come out looking at least a little worse for wear.
“Th-Thank goodness….”
Yewon pressed a hand to her chest.
Good heavens.
Just then, Yusong spotted Yewon and raised his hand toward her.
His face was expressionless, devoid of any muscle movement, but Yewon could tell.
That strikingly handsome man walking toward her was immensely pleased with himself, waiting for her praise!
“….”
However, Yewon looked at Yusong with colder eyes than ever before.
And she spoke to the Bodyguard.
“Turn around and go back.”
“What?!!?”
“Go. Back. Up. Now.”
Yewon emphasized every word of that last sentence with tremendous force.
“!!!”
The Bodyguard’s face went pale.
Oh, oh, oh no… our young lady is trying to have me assassinated…!
“B-but if you just turn back like this, the CEO will be terribly disappointed…!”
And my life will be in danger too…!
The Bodyguard pleaded in a voice on the verge of tears.
“I’m extremely disappointed right now too.”
But Yewon answered in a voice colder and more frigid than ever.
“…!!!!”
This is hopeless…!
The Bodyguard trembled.
The young lady really is trying to have me assassinated…!
* * *
Meanwhile, Yusong, who had spotted Yewon and was approaching her with unbridled joy, was taken aback.
He had clearly made eye contact with her, yet she simply turned away without looking back and left.
What?
She didn’t see me?
That can’t be right. I was born this tall precisely so she’d notice me easily.
Yusong suppressed his bewilderment and rushed toward his daughter.
Behind him, he heard several people shouting, “You can’t leave like this! Go to the Hospital immediately…!” but Yusong dismissed it lightly.
What did the Hospital matter when his daughter was ignoring him right now?
The moment he swiftly chased after his daughter and returned to the Spectator Stands.
“!”
Yusong was startled.
Yewon was glaring at him with colder eyes than she had ever shown before.
…What… did I… do wrong?
‘Could it be that I charged in too late? I should have charged the moment the match started, and now Uncle is worried because of me…?’
If that’s the case, I’ll have to accept her displeasure with grace….
Just as Yusong stood before Yewon with a dejected expression.
“Are you stupid?”
“!!!!”
Demoted back to “Uncle” again…!
Yusong barely suppressed the searing pain tearing through his chest and nodded.
It hurt far more than when he’d been shot the first time he met Seoha.
“I’m sorry. I should have rammed into him faster—”
“No.”
Yewon’s voice grew even colder.
“You shouldn’t have rammed into him. You’d be putting yourself in danger too.”
“…!”
Only then did Yusong understand why his daughter was so angry with him.
Right now, his daughter was… furious because she was so worried about him!
“…Were you worried about me just now?”
“Of course I was worried. You keep doing such dangerous things.”
At Yewon’s confirmation, Yusong could no longer contain the overwhelming emotion welling up inside him.
My daughter is worried about me.
Not just Uncle, but me too….
“Please don’t risk your life like that to save Uncle again. What I want is for both you and Uncle to come back safely.”
“I will.”
Yusong quickly nodded.
He could never dare to defy his daughter’s words.
“Next time—no, even next time, I’ll make sure to protect my own life. And I’ll save your Uncle too.”
“….”
Yusong said this and carefully bent his knees to meet his daughter’s eyes.
“So….”
Yusong hesitated before carefully opening his mouth.
“Could you forgive me just this once?”
Yewon stared at Yusong for a moment, then let out a sigh before—
“…Yes.”
She threw herself into Yusong’s embrace.
“!!!!!”
Yusong froze in shock at Yewon’s unexpected action.
Yewon whispered into Yusong’s ear.
“I won’t forgive you next time.”
“…!”
Yusong nodded very quickly.
“Of course not. I can’t make my daughter angry twice.”
Yusong carefully extended his arms and embraced Yewon, closing his eyes.
Ah.
So this is how you save me.
