Chapter 69.1
Absolute Advantage
âWill you be able to see it well like this?â
âYes, I can see it well.â The child nodded.
While the child was in Adamâs arms and looking at the work on the display table, Adam asked the child some short questions.
âOther than not being seen because the exhibition is high, what else was the most uncomfortable?â
âIâm hungry because I keep walking around. But thereâs no place to eat.â
âYeah, you shouldnât be hungry.â Adam, who was listening to the child carefully, burst into laughter.
âExcuse me, Brother.â
TL/N : The child called him Brother to address a man older than him.
âHuh? Why?â
The child whispered something in Adamâs ear. Adam listened carefully to the child and gave him a compliment.
âYes, I promise.â
âThank you.â
Adam, who exchanged some kind of promise, sent the child back to the woman, no, mother.
âWell, I donât know what to do with compensation.â¦.â
âThatâs all right. It was caused by our lack of consideration. The height of the display stand was placed according to the height of the adult, so the eye level of the children was not considered. The gallery will pay the artist, so you donât have to worry.â
âOh, my God. Thank you so much.â
The childâs mother bowed her head saying thank you as if she was very sorry.
As the people disappeared, Adam felt heavy fatigue. He almost pulled his tie in a choking mood. However, he had an eye to look at, so he just let out his breath.
âDeputy director.â
âYes!â
As Adam turned around and opened his mouth, the deputy director stood up and posed.
âPlease put glass covers on all the works above the exhibition and put a footrest in front of them.â
âYes, sir.â
âShall we do an event?â
âWhat?â
âFood truck.â
âFood truck⦠What?â
âYeah. Call the local government. If we get the permission, letâs promote it. Family visitors will be given a discount.â
Adam patted the deputy on the shoulder. In fact, the fourth exhibition hall in the annex was left to the deputy director, so he was responsible for the damage.
âThere was a lot of demand. Please do me a favor.â
âNo! Please go home safely!â
Adam and Li Yu-yen headed to the representative office, leaving their respectful eyes on the deputy director.
âYou made a good story.â
âGet ready.â
Adam smiled and nailed it.
âWhy?â
âIâm going to get busy in the future, but I donât want to waste my time elsewhere. Get rid of all the interview requests.â
âWhat about social media? There are a lot of people who watched what happened earlier, so I think someone will post it.â
âWe canât stop it.â
Adam shrugged his shoulders.
âBecause true stories have to spread from mouth to mouth. Not a processed article.â
âOh, really?â
âNatural things are the best.â
âHaâ¦.â
Recognizing Adamâs true intentions, Li Yu-yen now just laughed it off. The natural thing is the worst. Is it the words that come from the mouth of a control freak who plays all kinds of tricks behind his back?
âBy the way, what did the kid say earlier?â
Li Yu-yen was far away from comforting the deputy director, so he could not hear what Adam and his child were saying properly.
âDonât be mad at his mom.â
Adam took a little time to speak. His expression in reply was as insensitive as a man of intense emotion.
âThe child knew instinctively that you were a scary person.â
Li Yu-yen, who couldnât see Adamâs face because he was only walking forward, responded mischievously. Adam stopped in place.
He murmured to himself.
âI guess so. It seems like that.â
âWhat? What did you just say?â
Li Yu-yen turned around.
âI thought I wanted her dead.â
ââ¦â¦what?â
âMarie, the woman who gave birth to me.â
In an instant Adamâs mood, Li Yu-yen sneaked a glance at him.
âCompared to that, isnât that kid you just saw so good? Heâs worried about his mother, whoâs much older than him.â
ââ¦â¦Oh, well, yes.â Li Yu-yen stammered back.
âI hope my child looks like Haewon. If it looks like me, itâll be a little gross.â Adam wrinkled his eyes. ââ¦but would Seo Hae-won like it?â
It was only after consoling him that Li Yu-yen felt sorry for him. The prerequisite for pregnancy is a change of character. When that happened, it was fortunate that Hae-won kept her sanity.
âI guess so.â
Adamâs complexion brightened up in an instant.
âHaewon likes me so much. I guess I was influenced by Haewon a lot. Kids look pretty these days.â
It was such a lively voice that he wondered if he was the one who was depressed until a while ago. Li Yu-yen decided to let go of the problem he couldnât help.
