Lee Junseo (Son) – I’m His Owner

* Lee Junseo (Son) – I’m His Owner (6)

I shouldn’t have fainted!

I shouldn’t have fainted!

I shouldn’t have fainted!

I shouldn’t have!

I should have just closed my eyes tight and offered my arm!

Rushing regret, regret, regret, regret, regret…

As consciousness resurfaced, I realized I had made a terrible mistake.

“Aaaaaaaah!!!!”

I’d rather be dead!

I should have!

“Huff… huff…”

When I opened my eyes, with a head-splitting pain, it was already the middle of the night. I knew exactly how much time had passed while I was unconscious, strangely enough. That it hadn’t even been a full day and the commotion hadn’t died down, and that this was a hospital.

‘I tried to break through this situation by causing a commotion with attempted murder in court… I expected it, but I didn’t think that crazy little bastard would jump in… That, that, that son of a bitch! Wasn’t he something important to the village?! Why did he jump in! How are they going to clean this up?! Why was that bastard so angry and trying to screw me over?!’

She still maintained the attitude that she really didn’t know why Junseo was angry. Unless she was an idiot, there was no way she wouldn’t know. Perhaps this was an attitude only possible for Joo Yeonmi, and she stopped thinking about why Junseo attacked and raised her hand to caress the injured area.

“Ugh!”

A portion of her hair was cut off. There, a stitched-up mark and gauze were plastered, announcing the fact that she had almost been killed by a blunt weapon. Normally, she should be happy to be in the position of the victim from the perpetrator’s perspective, but Joo Yeonmi’s face gradually turned blue.

‘I failed! How much anxious time did I spend for today! I even expected the attack and was ready to step back, but that crazy bastard jumped in!’

The word “big trouble” flashed countless times above her head. Starting today, she was planning to incite the protesters and make things uncontrollably big. Perfect live broadcast right after coming out of court, at a timing when no one could touch her. That was the picture she had drawn, but now, not only was no one around, but people’s attention would be focused on Junseo’s attempted murder in court.

‘I don’t have time to be like this here. They must have pulled some strings by now, so it’s almost impossible to stick to the broadcasting station and demand to broadcast again.’

So, she had gathered several places at once.

She even prepared an internet broadcast.

‘I have to run away…’

Forcibly ignoring the throbbing in her head, especially the injured area, she lifted her waist. And only then did she realize that something was rustling next to her.

“?!”

Twitch!

“Ajumma.”

“Ju, Junhyuk-ini?!”

She was very nervous, wondering if they were some thugs crawling out of the village, but she was quickly relieved to see a surprisingly familiar face.

“I didn’t see you there… when did you come…?”

“I’ve been outside from the beginning. The situation turned out like this, so I couldn’t do anything, so I came now…”

“You didn’t show up when I was looking for you…”

“I couldn’t imagine that Ajumma would do that. You were nice to me, but after seeing you mess with my hyung and noona, my position became strange. So, I had no choice but to stay quiet.”

Even in this situation, Junhyuk calmly cut an apple into pieces. However, Joo Yeonmi didn’t seem to be in the mood and knocked it away with her palm. Junhyuk muttered that it was a waste as the fruit piece rolled onto the floor.

“I cut it for you… that little thing… has a nasty temper…”

“Were you there too…?”

It wasn’t just Junhyuk, but also a familiar old man. He wasn’t wearing his usual fishing clothes. Despite not participating in this trial, he appeared in a suit in the dark corner of the hospital room.

“What else could I do when things turned out like this? I begged Manim-kke.”

“What did that old hag say?”

“She said she hated the sight of that Moon San and that he deserved to be beaten up… I was surprised because I didn’t expect to be praised… The only thing I was scolded for was helping that Chinese beggar to crash a car into Doryeonim…?”

He made a hollow laughing sound, but his face wasn’t smiling.

Why?

The answer was in his raised right hand.

“Look at this. I’ve been forgiven with this, so it’s okay.”

Kim Yongshin’s right pinky and ring fingers were missing. He had a deep bandage on as if it hadn’t been long since they were cut off, but he didn’t say a word about why they disappeared, but everyone knew the reason.

“It’s so like you to slip away alone in this situation.”

“It’s also amazing that you can still act up in this situation.”

Kim Yongshin wasn’t being sarcastic, but genuinely admiring. Even though her ex-husband’s fingers were cut off, she could see that and still be sarcastic about him slipping away. Moreover, the sound of her brain working as if she hadn’t given up yet echoed throughout the room.

“How is he?”

“Doryeonim is scheduled to be imprisoned for attempted murder in court. There were too many eyes watching, so we couldn’t cover it up. Hehe, should I congratulate you in advance?”

“For what?”

“What you initially aimed for was for Junhyuk to become the village chief, right? You were pretending to be a good person and trying to marry Junhyuk, who became the village chief, to our daughter. After that, you had plans to eat away at the village from the inside…”

“You were going to do that to me?”

“……………”

“Life doesn’t go the way you want it to, does it? With this incident, Junseo Doryeonim was pushed out of the village chief position, and Junhyuk got to go up. But you’re in a life-threatening situation right now. Isn’t it a funny sight? Everything is what you wanted, but only you are left out.”

Kim Yongshin laughed heartily, but neither Joo Yeonmi nor Junhyuk could laugh. Especially Junhyuk, who had a bad expression as if he hadn’t expected things to turn out this way.

“I still don’t understand why he did that. Why him of all people? There are so many other people?”

“My hyung hated that village. He said he felt disillusioned with this incident. So, he did it to smear dirt on Halmeoni’s face and to screw over Ajumma who kidnapped Noona. It means get out, both of you.”

“He tried to screw both of us over?”

“Yes.”

“What’s a pervert who fucks his own family…”

Joo Yeonmi recalled the words she heard before he took out the blunt weapon. It was as if he would have helped to destroy the village if she had told him from the beginning. At first, she didn’t think much of it, but she belatedly regretted that he might have been serious.

‘Hmph, only now.’

However, she realized it was a useless regret and maintained her usual attitude of mocking the other person.

“Attempted murder, so 5 years? If you reduce it as much as possible, about 3 years? Even after causing that commotion in court, it’s only 3 years, you guys are really amazing.”

“Everyone around will testify that Doryeonim was drunk, so you can benefit from that. As you said, even if you reduce the sentence as much as possible, you’ll be out in about 3 years.”

“With you guys, you can end it with probation, right? Why are you trying to end the story with him being locked up?”

“That’s because hyung himself doesn’t want that. He’s thinking of rotting there for a few years. It’s a way of saying, please don’t touch my family and leave them alone.”

“I don’t understand him.”

“From hyung’s point of view, the village and Ajumma are the same thing.”

She tried to open her mouth to talk about that treatment, but she held back and changed the subject. That’s not what’s important now. There’s something else she needs to ask.

“What’s going to happen to me now? The fact that you two are here means you’re letting me go, right?”

Whether she lives or dies.

The most important question.

She asked with a hint of expectation, just in case, but the answer that came back was cold.

“Are you crazy? The fact that Junhyuk and I are here is the last condolence we’re sending to you. Don’t even dream of living.”

“You’re going to kill me? I was still your wife?”

“If we weren’t careful, all the bastards who had taken root in this country would have fallen from the tree. We won’t make you into a product. It’s too dangerous, so we’ve decided to take care of it immediately, so know that.”

‘I knew it…’

It was like announcing the slaughter of a pig. A chill ran down her spine, but she didn’t show it. While she was rolling her eyes, wondering if she could escape through the two people’s encirclement with her head injured, Kim Yongshin moved towards the door.

“Are you going to do it? You were tricked into marrying me, so that wouldn’t be bad either.”

“Of course, not me.”

“Then who?”

“Of course, it’s Doryeonim.”

‘Can he come here in this situation?’

As she blinked her eyes, the door opened, and the footsteps of the protagonist who made the morning noisy with attempted murder in court could be heard. In the current situation, there wouldn’t even be time to make a phone call, even at this late hour. Forget about a phone call, he came directly and was acting natural, making her realize once again how rotten this country is.

‘To let a bastard who committed such a thing roam free like this. My life is being ruined because of that rotten human, and this time I’m failing because of his son.’

Whether he knew her anger or not.

Junseo, as if nothing had happened, first.

Calmly recited it.
