Chapter 116

Episode 116The price of insult (4)

“It’s a nice day.”

The sunlight streaming in from the window was surprisingly clear.

It was good to say that fall was in full swing now. The wind was cool and the sky was clear. The weather was even more precious because there was still time left until the leaves began to fall.

“You too, have some tea.”

“yes? Oh yes!”

Lee Geon put down the item on the bridge of his nose and accepted the teacup as if he were grateful.

Mo Yong-woo looked at the object with curious eyes.

“Is that the object called Aeche (靉靆)?”

“yes? Oh this. That’s right. “Now that I think about it, I haven’t shown it to the branch manager yet.”

Mo Yong-woo smiled.

“I’m sorry. “I’ve been so busy lately that I haven’t been able to pay enough attention to you.”

“Haha, don’t say that.”

Lee Geon picked up Aeche.

“I got it through a trader. “It was an item brought over from the West Station, and surprisingly, the writing was large and clear.”

“is it?”

“Would you like to try it?”

“It’s okay. “It’s not polite to use other people’s things easily.”

Lee Geon smiled sheepishly.

Mo Yong-woo tilted his head.

“But do you need affection? “If you have the skills to read the letters on a grain of rice, right?”

“As you know, my skills are not all-powerful.”

Mo Yong-woo nodded.

This was not originally a person named Mo Yong-se. He was a person who happened to be in a relationship with Mo Yong-woo, and Lee Geon, who received Mo Yong-woo’s favor, voluntarily declared himself his subordinate.

‘It was amazing back then.’

In Mo Yong-woo’s view, Lee Geon was a strong man.

This was not an ordinary strong man, but a strong man far beyond himself. If Lee Geon hadn’t been seriously injured at that time, he wouldn’t have lasted even ten seconds.

However, as much as Lee Geon’s internal power, or martial power, created tremendous power, his shortcomings were also clear.

That was the reason why I was not able to use my strength properly normally.

“Anyway, after rescuing this guy called Aeche, the work started speeding up. “I would like to try producing it ourselves.”

“It will require some sophisticated technology. Even if you have the ingredients, it won’t be easy.”

“Haha, I guess so.”

Mo Yong-woo buried his back in the chair.

Lee Geon smiled.

“You look comfortable.”

Mo Yong-woo smiled bitterly.

“My body feels comfortable. “Now that I am freed from the mountain of work, I don’t know what to do.”

“Are you saying it makes you feel uncomfortable?”

Mo Yong-woo just smiled.

Of course it had to be that way. He had a big problem that Lee Geon didn’t know about.

And that problem will be resolved in some way. The problem was that no matter how it was resolved, bigger worries would face him later.

‘I’m worried.’

A look of agony appeared on Mo Yongwu’s face.

He recalled the contents of the letter sent by Yeon Ho-jeong.

‘If Mo Yong Yeon-hwa goes, you have to make a choice. Will you abandon them or take them with you? ‘Everyone’s life is at stake in your decision.’

Mo Yong-woo closed his eyes.

‘Other people’s lives depend on my choices…’

It’s a burdensome task.

He has been responsible for his subordinates for many years. But this time the depth of responsibility was different.

‘Those who are not related to the martial arts group. Meanwhile, there are many people who do good deeds every year. ‘Those people could end up on the street with just one choice I make.’

Mo Yong-woo sighed.

Lee Geon tilted his head.

“Why are you doing that?”

“hmm? Oh no. “I’m tired.”

“ha ha ha! You never know when you might get busy again later. “It’s also good to make sure to rest when you can.”

“That is correct.”

Two people laughing and talking.

How much time has passed like that?

‘…?’

The wind blowing from the window seemed to have cooled down a bit.

Mo Yong-woo said calmly.

“This.”

“Yes, branch manager.”

“Bring him.”

Lee Geon’s expression hardened.

“Be careful.”

“Don’t worry.”

Lee Geon got up holding the documents and left the office.

After a while.

“Branch manager. “Someone from the Moryong family has arrived.”

“Take it.”

It rattled.

The door opened and a person appeared.

Although her beauty was not so eye-popping, she was a beauty that somehow caught people’s attention. The luxurious silk clothes suited her very well.

The woman, Mo Yong-yeon, bowed her head.

“Yeonhwa says hello to her uncle. “It’s been a while since I last saw you, right?”

Mo Yong-woo stood up.

“Yeah, it’s been a while.”

Moyong Yeonhwa.

In fact, the age difference between the two was not that big. This is because Mo Yong-yeonhwa was born when Mo Yong-woo was a child when he was training in earnest with the sword.

If you are close friends with an 11-year age difference, a friendly atmosphere can be created.

However, there was a strange wall between Mo Yong-woo and Mo Yong-yeonhwa. It was an invisible wall that the two people built for each other.

Mo Yong-Yeonhwa smiled.

“Has it been a year?”

“I see.”

“I think my uncle has become more handsome since we haven’t seen each other. “If you go out to that street, women will be lining up, right?”

Mo Yong-woo laughed bitterly.

“I haven’t been able to get married until I’m almost 30. “I want to be alone forever.”

“Hohoho, you can’t do that. “What woman in the world would refuse you?”

It was not a topic that could be brought up easily, even among close friends. Mo Yong-Yeonhwa regarded Mo Yong-Woo as an older stranger rather than her uncle.

“Now that I am done, I want you to marry a good person first.”

“I still have a long way to go. “There must be a lot going on in the family.”

“Is that so?”

“yes. There are so many that I can’t even think about it. “My father made me work so hard.”

“It must be very difficult.”

“What can I do even if it’s hard? “That’s why my father trusts me so much.”

Mo Yong-woo was inwardly curious.

‘Did you know this kid would say something like this?’

Although they only exchanged a few words, Mo Yong-woo felt a change in Mo Yong-yeonhwa.

I don’t know exactly what the change is. But I knew one thing. Unlike before, there were clear cracks in the solid wall surrounding Moyong Lotus Flower.

He complains that he’s busy, but he’s subtly bragging. It was a sight that had never been shown before.

‘Has there been anything that has shaken your heart recently?’

Actually, now was not the time to worry about Mo Yong Yeon Hwa.

“You left it standing too long. Yes, sit down.”

“yes! Oh, you were drinking tea.”

“It wasn’t bad.”

“Can you please have a drink for me too?”

Mo Yong-woo flinched.

Would you like a ride?

Even though she was out of favor with her family, it was not something she would say to her uncle as his niece. Although it was against the law, it was also very against the law.

Mo Yong-woo looked at Mo Yong-yeonhwa.

Mo Yong Yeon Hwa smiled.

“Is there something on my face?”

different.

The more I talk about it and the more I look at it, the more I feel the change in Moyong Yeonhwa.

‘You’re forcing a smile.’

It was a completely different mask than the mask he usually wore. From Mo Yong-woo’s perspective, Mo Yong-yeonhwa was clearly overdoing things.

Mo Yong-woo, who was looking at his niece, suddenly asked.

“Are you asking me to take a ride in your car?”

“yes.”

Mo Yong-yeon smiled and tilted her head.

“why? “Is there any reason why we can’t do that?”

“….”

“You’re not upset, are you?”

Mo Yong-woo didn’t feel bad at all.

On the contrary, seeing this reaction made me feel relaxed and relaxed.

It was so unexpected that I briefly wondered if this was a trap. Of course, Mo Yong-woo’s instinct was able to immediately tell that his niece’s reaction was not a trap.

‘I don’t know why…’

Beyond the smiling face, I feel my ego remaining unstable.

‘I feel fortunate.’

Mo Yong-woo was afraid of Mo Yong-yeonhwa.

It wasn’t that I was scared of my niece’s existence itself, but I was scared of how far she would go astray. He did not want his niece to live a cruel life like his brother.

Mo Yong-woo stood up.

“I’ll ride you as the best guy.”

“thank you. After all, I only have an uncle.”

“Thank you for your words.” Sёarᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Mo Yong-woo lit a fire in the brazier under the window. Then, he poured water and gently boiled it.

Mo Yong-yeonhwa said as she looked around the office.

“There are more books than before?”

“I read a lot during my free time.”

“Hey, really? “What kind of books are you reading these days?”

“When you finish drinking your tea, go back to your family home.”

Mo Yong Yeon Hwa’s eyes hardened.

It felt like the conversation that was going on naturally was suddenly cut off.

She looked at Mo Yong-woo.

He looked like a scholar as he boiled water with his back turned.

“sorry. I guess I heard wrong. “What did you say?”

“He told me to go back when I finished drinking the tea.”

“Uncle.”

“I saw your face, so it’s okay. “I don’t think I have anything more to talk about with you.”

Those were pretty cold words.

Mo Yong-Yeonhwa could not help but feel embarrassed. And as much as I was embarrassed, I was secretly angry.

“You don’t have anything to talk to me about?”

“okay.”

“well? “That can’t be possible, right?”

“No matter what you say, my meaning is clear. So I don’t think there’s any need for further conversation between us.”

Mo Yong-woo turned around.

Mo Yong Yeon Hwa flinched. My uncle was smiling bitterly at me.

“You’re not really interested in my personal life, are you?”

“I…”

“Yes.”

Mo Yong-woo nodded and interrupted her.

“The reason you came here is because of the orders of the head of the family. “Didn’t you plan to watch what’s going on here and announce that you will devour the Zhejiang Trade Federation?”

“….”

“I have no intention of listening to that notice, so I’m telling you to go back after having a cup of tea.”

Mo Yong Yeon Hwa’s expression hardened.

“I have no intention of listening to the notice… I’m surprised. “I didn’t know your uncle would be so rude.”

“I was surprised too. “I didn’t know you were so broken.”

“…!!”

“I don’t know if you know your condition, but emotional wounds are difficult to heal. “Take care of yourself first.”

“…That’s interesting.”

There was an honest feeling of anger in Mo Yong Yeon Hwa’s eyes.

“I am a representative of my family. Even if you are my uncle, you should treat me with respect, right?”

“Even if you come to represent the family, a niece is still a niece. “It may be said that the laws of the world have fallen to the ground, but I am too spoiled to just listen to what you say.”

“…!!”

“Go back to your family and rest for a few months. “What you need is not too much work, but time to reflect on yourself.”

At that moment, Mo Yong Yeon Hwa’s eyes trembled.

Too much work? Do you look at yourself?

‘this…!’

I almost said a curse word without realizing it. My precariously maintained self-esteem was almost shattered.

Yeon Ho-jeong and the children of the Merchants’ Association ignored him, and now even his uncle, who was kicked out of the family, ignores him.

bang!

Mo Yong Yeon-hwa stood up, leaning back her chair.

“Branch Manager Moyong.”

Mo Yong-woo’s eyes deepened.

Mo Yong Yeon Hwa spoke coldly.

“Bring all the trader-related logs.”

It was an order without hesitation.

Mo Yong-woo shook his head.

“There is no such thing. And even if it exists, I have no intention of showing it to you.”

“Branch manager! Say it again! “Bring the documents now!”

“I will say this again as your uncle. “If you don’t want to drink tea, then go home.”

“this…!”

Mo Yong-yeon, who was trembling, shouted out the window.

“Jeokpungdaeju! “Come into the office right now!”

Mo Yong-woo shook his head.

“Don’t do that.”

“shut up!”

Mo Yong-yeon-hwa gritted her teeth.

“I’ve been treating you like an uncle, and it seems like the distinction between high and low has disappeared. “You should be glad that your father didn’t purge you!”

Mo Yong-woo remained silent.

bang!

The office door opened and a thousand people came in.

“Did you call me, Princess So?”

Mo Yong Yeonhwa pointed to Mo Yong Woo.

“Suppress interest immediately! “We will escort you to your home!”

“….”

“What are you doing! Right now…”

At that moment, Moyong Yeonhwa’s eyes grew as big as the full moon.

thud!

The statue of a thousand people fell forward.

Lee Geon was standing behind the fallen Cheonin statue.

“Yeonhwa.”

Mo Yong-yeonhwa looked at Mo Yong-woo in surprise.

Mo Yong-woo’s eyes shone bright blue.

“Go back to your home now.”
