Ch.65065 – Men in Love 2

# 065 – Men in Love # 2

Gaeryong Metropolitan City was famous for having the highest land prices after Seoul.

Apartments in the city center were priced beyond what ordinary citizens could even dream of affording.

So what if a high school student lived alone in such an apartment?

That’s exactly who Kwon Suho was.

“Wow.”

My jaw dropped at the sight of the premium apartment building I was seeing for the first time in my life.

Even at a glance, the building looked tall and spacious.

What was even more surprising was that there were no cars on the ground.

When I visited Yang Juhui’s house, all kinds of cars were messily parked in the apartment complex, making the environment look chaotic.

But in this apartment complex, there were no cars, only apartments and people.

The faces of women pushing strollers were extremely pale, and even the leashed dogs walking around looked expensive.

This must be a rich neighborhood.

“Let’s go.”

Senior Eunjeong entered the apartment security code and caught the elevator.

15th floor.

Ding-

The elevator rose smoothly without any noise and stopped, revealing only one door on the entire 15th floor.

This meant the entire 15th floor was a single residence.

Senior Eunjeong skillfully entered the door lock password and soon opened the door to go inside.

Ding-a-ling-

When the door opened, I saw an interior so spacious it could be called an indoor playground, a TV large enough to fill the entire wall, and students gathered on the sofa in front of it, chatting away.

“Is that Eunjeong?”

“Why are you so late today?”

They seemed to be students around my age.

But their clothes and phones were all expensive, latest models.

They also gave off strong delinquent vibes.

And I, Ha Yeongwon, was sensitive to delinquents.

“Who’s that?”

“Did Eunjeong bring her boyfriend?”

The students gathered in the living room showed interest in me.

The atmosphere felt like I was about to get mugged.

Senior Eunjeong asked:

“Where’s Suho oppa?”

“He’s in his room right now.”

A sharp-featured man who looked like a dinosaur pointed his thumb toward a room.

As Senior Eunjeong was about to knock on that door, the dinosaur man hurriedly stopped her.

“Hey. Don’t disturb him now. He’s with a girl.”

“Again? When did she go in?”

“It’s been about 10 minutes, so wait about 5 more minutes and it should be fine.”

Everyone seemed familiar with this atmosphere.

I was the only one feeling awkward.

And I was also curious about what exactly was happening in that room.

I sat down on a chair at a nearby dining table.

Looking around, I was amazed that such a comfortable and spacious home existed.

Actually, if I really thought about it, Yu Dahui’s house was bigger and more impressive, but that place was so far beyond my imagination or common sense that it was beyond the realm of envy or jealousy.

That place felt like a fantasy world.

It was like how a real human wouldn’t genuinely envy an elf from a fantasy story.

But this place felt very real.

So high school students who live alone in homes like this actually exist in the world.

Soon the dinosaur-like guy asked me:

“So are you Bong Jiyeon’s new boyfriend? That’s why you’re here, right?”

“Me? I’m not Bong Jiyeon’s boyfriend.”

I suddenly felt very unpleasant.

Me, Bong Jiyeon’s boyfriend?

Where did such a ridiculous rumor come from?

The dinosaur guy frowned.

“You’re not?”

Beep, beep beep-

Just then, the apartment door opened.

An extremely pretty girl walked in, so pretty she could be a celebrity.

She had short hair, and it was surprising how well the short cut suited her.

“Where’s Kwon Suho?”

“Uh… Yujeong. Suho is in his room right now.”

“Really?”

“Oh, no. Suho is with a girl right now…”

Crunch-

The extremely pretty girl named Yujeong frowned deeply.

As beautiful people tend to have dramatic facial expressions, it was overwhelming.

Thump thump thump-!

Stomping her feet, Yujeong knocked on the door where Kwon Suho was supposed to be.

When she opened the door, the bed inside was visibly moving, and then a man’s face popped out. He had dyed red hair.

“Ah, shit. What the hell. Kim Yujeong. You crazy bitch. Why are you opening the door like this?”

“Hey! Kwon Suho! You’re the crazy one! You asked me to date you! You ask me to date you and then bring different girls every day! And how can you… in front of everyone… you’re so disgusting! You crazy bastard.”

“That’s because you’re playing hard to get. We’ve been dating for two days and you won’t even let me kiss you? You say you’re not even a virgin, so why are you acting so precious?”

Earlier I compared Yu Dahui’s house to a fantasy world, but I need to correct myself.

This place is the real fantasy world.

How can something like this exist?

Having a girlfriend but now with another girl…

I saw the face of the woman peeking out from under the blanket, and she was also extremely pretty.

“You’re such a dog.”

Whoosh!

Yujeong left the apartment with tears in her eyes. My brief crush ended in just five minutes.

Kwon Suho got up from the bed half-naked, adjusted his pants, and came out to the living room.

Then he saw me.

“Who are you? Are you here to collect money?”

He looked about 190cm tall.

His physique was so muscular it was hard to believe he was a high school student like me, and his face was handsome with clean features.

So this is Kwon Suho.

The leader of Gaeryong City’s troublemakers?

“I’m…”

Suddenly I remembered that this guy was said to be incredibly good at detecting lies.

“I’m Yeongwon.”

“Yeongwon? Who? I don’t know you. Park Eunjeong, did you bring him? Are you trying to add him to our fam?”

“He’s the one! Gu Hyena!”

“Ah-.”

Kwon Suho nodded.

I was more interested in the girl who was gently crawling out of the bed and starting to get dressed than in Kwon Suho.

She had an amazing flower tattoo on her back.

She also had a tattoo on her thigh.

This girl came out to the living room wearing only her underwear, opened what looked like an extremely expensive refrigerator, and gulped down water, but no one seemed to care.

How could they not look? Were they that used to it?

Kwon Suho said:

“Hey. Yeongwon. From now on, tell the truth to what I ask. You found Gu Hyena, right? Did you happen to see my wallet in her pocket?”

“What? Your wallet?”

I didn’t see anything like that.

I didn’t even have time for that in the first place.

“I didn’t see it.”

“Ah, shit. Then who was it?”

Kwon Suho frowned and looked at me.

Now that I looked closely, his eyes were very black.

Usually you should be able to see the iris and pupil, but his eyes were just completely black. I remembered seeing the night sea once, and it was so dark that I couldn’t tell how deep it was, which scared me.

That memory came back to me in this moment.

“You really don’t seem to have seen it. And aren’t you Bong Jiyeon’s new boyfriend? Have you done it with Bong Jiyeon?”

“I’m not Bong Jiyeon’s boyfriend. And I haven’t done anything with her.”

“Then what are you?”

“I’m not in any kind of relationship with her. Really.”

“Really? Actually, I’m not in any relationship with her either. I couldn’t even touch her with a finger. Shit, wouldn’t I be angry? We were dating.”

“……”

“Think about it from my perspective. Imagine you have a girlfriend but she won’t let you touch her until marriage. But then from a few days ago, she ignores your messages and rumors spread that she’s meeting another guy-“

Kwon Suho sniffed his nose, twitched his face, or slapped his head with his palm.

It seemed like some kind of mental disorder, and judging by the way he spoke, he didn’t seem normal.

“So don’t touch what belongs to others.”

What a strange guy.

Is this what happens when you have a lot of money? I suddenly imagined what it would be like if I were a third-generation chaebol or an incredibly rich high school student.

Looking at it that way, Kwon Suho was actually quite down-to-earth.

If it were me… hehehe.

If I just said “Water,” that Hong Miri teacher would bring me ice water…

No. This isn’t the time to be thinking like this.

“Sir. Um, I heard you can detect all lies. Is that true?”

“……”

Kwon Suho frowned at my question.

Then he looked at Park Eunjeong.

“Hey-. Eunjeong. Didn’t I tell you not to tell just anyone? Reflect on yourself. Go into the closet and come out after an hour. Eunjeong keeps crossing the line these days.”

Senior Eunjeong went into the closet.

It was a bizarre scene in many ways.

And Kwon Suho seemed to have lost interest in me already.

He took out something like a blue pill from his pants pocket, sat down at the table, and started crushing the powder with his phone.

The dinosaur-like guy pushed my shoulder and kicked me out of the house, so I didn’t see what happened after that, but it was clearly the kind of thing a student shouldn’t be doing.

Kwon Suho.

He’s completely insane.

『Chapter 1. Starting the Nightmare Corridor.』

『Please select a player from the list below.』

『You can select up to 4 players.』

「Kwon Suho」

At least I was able to collect him for the player list.

“Son. What were you doing coming home so late? Your friend came early and was waiting.”

When I got home, Mom was making pancakes.

And Jeongseok was sitting on the floor eating pancakes placed on a small table.

“Hey. You’re back. I called but you didn’t answer.”

I didn’t have time to check my phone.

I whispered to Jeongseok:

“I met Kwon Suho.”

“Really?”

“And he said he’d kill anyone who touches Bong Jiyeon.”

I told Jeongseok about what happened with Kwon Suho.

Jeongseok seemed quite impressed and pleased.

“Didn’t I tell you? Bong Jiyeon is a nice girl. Despite how she looks, she puts up walls with guys. It’s not just me she’s cold to.”

My friend seemed like quite a pervert.

It’s not that I don’t understand the feeling, but…

“Son, have a snack.”

Mom made pancakes and handed them to me.

They tasted really good with strawberry jam.

Mom seemed to be in a good mood.

“Look at this. Jeongseok helped me clean up the veranda. Thanks to him, I found my lost wedding ring.”

Mom showed me a cheap couple ring that high school students might wear.

It was the couple ring that Mom and Dad had matched when they were high school students, and it also served as their wedding ring.

Wedding ring.

Suddenly I remembered Mr. Kang Bada wearing a strange plastic ring on his ring finger.

“Mom. Did you have a couple ring with Mr. Kang Bada too?”

“No. Why would I have a couple ring with him?”

“Really? He was wearing a toy ring on his ring finger.”

“He’s still wearing that? He’s so persistent. There are men like that. Men who go crazy over a woman they like, stopping at nothing. Auntie can read faces, and Jeongseok, you’re like that too, right?”

“What? I’m… well…”

Jeongseok mumbled.

But I felt a bit upset.

“Mom. There’s nothing between you and Mr. Kang Bada, right? That man told me I might be his son. He’s a really weird guy.”

“He said that? Puhaha-! He was just teasing you. It’s true that Kang Bada followed me around saying he liked me, but he quit after a week. I beat him up pretty badly at the time. I really hit him hard.”

“…Really?”

“After that, there was another woman Kang Bada truly liked. But to think he’s still wearing that toy ring… he must not have forgotten her. What a stubborn guy.”

Swish-

Mom went into her room and brought something back to me.

It was a blue plastic ring.

“Back in the day, there was junk food where you could get a ring toy when you ate candy. Jewel Ring. This is it. I’ve been keeping it… when you see Kang Bada later, you can return it to him.”

It was identical to the plastic jewel ring that Mr. Kang Bada was wearing.

With a suspicion in mind, I asked:

“Mom. What was the name of the woman that man liked?”

“Name? That woman’s name was… Yu Inna. You know the chairman of the school you’re attending? She was that chairman’s daughter. She was super rich. She came to school every day in a black car.”

Ah!

It was like lightning struck in my head.

Cheon’s daughter, Yu Inna.

And Kang Bada, who fell out of favor with the Cheon family!

These two were close enough to use toy rings as couple rings.

And that Kang Bada who wanted information about the high school girl Yu Dahui, even if he had to use shady methods!

Everything was connected!

By a red bloodline thicker than water!

Yu Dahui was the daughter of Yu Inna, Cheon Daegon’s daughter, and the outsider man Kang Bada!
