After a long journey of 8 hours, they finally reached City K. Usually, it would take around 6 hours to reach there but because of continuous snowfall, it took them a bit more time.
When they were near the destination, they saw a huge property in between the snowy mountains. Even it was late afternoon, the sun was nowhere in the sky. On that dark afternoon, the hotel was shining proudly in the flood of snow. “Wow!” a single word came from everyone’s mouth.
On arriving, they were welcomed by the Manager of the hotel, “Good Afternoon everyone, welcome to Hotel Shinhwa. I am manager Hwang. How may I help you?” Nam Gil replied, “Hello Manager Hwang, I am Kang Nam Gil, we have booked four rooms here.”
Manager Hwang then recognized him. He got the call this morning from the higher-ups saying that the young master of Kang family will be coming with his friends. “Welcome young master Kang, I apologize for not recognizing yo
Su Yeon didn’t know what to do now. Someone tapped her shoulder from behind. Su Yeon held her guard up and looked behind, fortunately, it was Jin. He was trying to say something. Su Yeon asked with a bit loud voice, “What??”Jin chuckled and removed her hands from her ear. He held her shoulders and bent forward till his lips touched her ear, “Want to go out?” Su Yeon turned stiff and nodded robotically. Jin signaled the boys about their leave. He held her hands and took her out of that place.When they came out of that place, they both couldn’t take the sudden silent surrounding. It took them a couple of seconds to adjust. “Where should we go?” Jin asked. “Let’s go on the rooftop. There was a place which has a transparent glass roof,” Su Yeon said.They went to the topmost floor. A staff member guided them. It was actually a huge balcony that was covered by glass. It was supposed to be a small par
Where the eight friends were enjoying the ice skating, outside, someone was misbehaving with their cars. One person was efficiently placing bags in both cars without getting noticed by anyone. After finishing his work, a car came and he went inside.Lots of practice, falling numerous times, trying to help each other and tons of photos… all of them got tired and decided to say bye to this place. They sat in their respective cars and went in the way to the other side of city K, which was now just a mountain apart.When they finally crossed the mountain, they saw a check post that was inspecting every passing vehicle. Both the cars were connected by a call. Nam Gil and Jin’s phones were connected to their cars so that everyone could chat with each other.Jin said, “Nam Gil, can you see what is it for?” Nam Gil replied, “They are inspecting the whole vehicle, maybe the functioning or the luggage. Wait, they… they aren’t po
“Ohh? What are you doing here?” a voice came from behind. “Brother Lufan!!” Su Yeon beamed and waved at him. Meanwhile, Mr. Wang commanded a guard to bring all her friends inside. Wang Lufan was also wearing a tuxedo and looking like the finest gentleman. “You… I heard that some smugglers were caught red-handed! What about them?” Wang Lufan got confused. Su Yeon scratched her nose and said, “Umm… apparently, we are those smugglers.” Wang Lufan couldn’t believe what she said, but after looking at her face, he read between the lines, “Wait… someone sabotaged you all? Little one, do you know the consequences of it?” and sat beside her. Su Yeon knew that Lufan could understand the underlying meaning so she said, “I knew it, that is why I was going to ask for help from the officer, but when they brought us here, I already got my help.” Meanwhile, the officer and lady guard realized the whole situation. They understood the reason behind the unpredictable attitudes
He continued, “Minister Wang, we got some news that the opposing party is pursuing landowners to buy land as much land possible illegally under your name for the purpose of ‘Betterment’. We tried to investigate further and found that over 500 acres of land are in process of selling as of now.”Zhen asked Su Yeon in a low voice, “But wouldn’t that be better for our party? I mean the elections are only a couple of months away.” Su Yeon shook her head and started pacing around with a serious face, “No Zhen, this is not just that simple game. There are two incidences… one, the illegal acquisition and two, the presence of Heath+ CEO. Using the name of Minister Wang will ease their work. Furthermore, the more they increase uncle’s popularity, the steeper will be the fall-- Wait! Brother Lufan, so they are trying to destroy your entry!”The Officer raised his brow, “You are smarter for your age.” M
As Su Yeon, Ming, Jin and Huang went towards gaming booths, the shooting game caught their attention. Su Yeon reminisced the old days when she and her maternal grandfather used to play this game in the amusement park. She remembered how her grandfather used to hold the rifle, like a pro sniper. She went forward and tried to copy his style and position, but regretted it as the rifle was heavy as hell. Still, she held it just like him and one target caught her eyes, ‘Antique Piece of Your Choice’ She targeted that card and started mustering up her courage to pull the trigger because the penalty beside it was ‘Drink 5 shots of vodka’. Gon who was hiding on the opposite rooftop saw and commented, “Miss don’t hold it like that, it will hurt your neck and shoulder-” Just then, at the gaming booth, someone from behind adjusted her elbow and neck, “The jerk will dislocate your shoulder, Little one.” They all saw Lufan was standing behind, smil
A few hours ago, in the same casino, A young man was sitting at a blackjack table, looking at how his brother was playing efficiently. Just then, he heard a sweet voice from the table behind them, “Brother Lufan, can I give another shot?” He widened his eyes, ‘Intern Yoon?’ and looked behind. To his dismay, the source of the voice was sitting by facing her back towards him. He turned back towards his table but his ears and mind were completely on the Poker table. When he heard that she lost straight two rounds, he thought, ‘There are only two possibilities, either she is stubborn or… she is luring them to bid for more.’ Indeed, his second guess turned correct when he heard her saying with a sweet yet cunning voice, “It’s three Aces.” He couldn’t help but laugh out. The man beside him asked, “What happened?” The young man came back to his usual attitude and said, “Nothing, Hyung.” ‘I can’t wait to meet you now’ he thought and turned aroun
Gon was following her the moment she came out of the crowd. When he was about to go forward to pick the bag, he saw a person come and did it. He became alert but then saw that person waiting for her. Gon was following his every move, but when he heard the voice, “Excuse me, you dropped this…” his legs gave up and he froze on the spot. Certain voices started ringing in his mind, . A deep and devilish voice said, ‘Move!’ He then heard his own voice saying, ‘My apologies Emperor Jun, but I won’t let anyone harm our Miss,’ and heard the sound of a sword taken out from the sheath. The deep voice mocked, ‘Why would I harm my own Empress? I am just taking her to my chamber and… as her husband, I am allowed to do that.’ The voice continued, ‘My dear Empress, why are you hiding behind him? Are you sure he can protect you from… ME?’ A sweet helpless voice said from behind, ‘Gon ah, don’t do it. You are the only trusted person I have in t
Su Yeon went towards them, “Dr. Bai! Good morning! Are you also here for celebration?” Dr. Bai smiled, “Very Good morning my child! Of course. I came here with my family. He is my elder son.”Su Yeon widened her eyes, “What?... Ohh I-I am sorry,” and bite her tongue. The young man laughed and said, “I am used to it, don’t worry. Hello, I am Lee Kang Min,” and bowed. Su Yeon bowed back, “Hello Mr. Lee, I am Yoon Su Yeon—” she stopped and looked at him carefully, “Wait, Lee Kang Min… Mr. Lee aren’t you the winner of ‘Best Young Entrepreneur’?”Lee Kang Min amused, “Woah, well yes, but that happened almost two years ago, how did you remember?” Su Yeon beamed, “Of course! I have read your interview in the Business magazine; you are a true inspiration! and I liked your quote ‘You Are Who You Choose To Be’ so easy yet strong.”
Father Li denied, “I couldn’t, or rather… I shouldn’t register them, else it will question my license.”“What? Why?” both Chen and Su Yeon asked together.“You see it yourself,” Father Li passed her the documents. After seeing the document, Su Yeon looked back at him in confusion, to which he eyed her to look at the end.Su Yeon creased her forehead while looking at the end, “I couldn’t find anything wrong— wait… this!” she was utterly speechless.Father Li laughed, “Su Yeon ah, even though you know how Kang Jun is, still you believe that he will divorce you?” Su Yeon mumbled under her breath, “He is surely the Demon Lord” She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry or get angry at her sly husband.“So… should I slide them into the shredder?”“Aniyo! I want to keep this paper,” Su Yeon narrowed her eyes, making Father Li chuckle, “As you wish, have fun.”“Geurigo…” Su Yeon said, “Father, I need your help… and permission as well”After listening to her, Father Li sighed with a frown, “Can
Li Kang Jun was enjoying his wife’s desires. He slowed his movements to let his wife take advantage of him. Turning around, he saw Su Yeon looking at him from top to bottom with dizzy bewitched eyes, making him lose control of himself.Clutching his jaw, he took a threatening step forward and grabbed her by her waist before she could even think of running away.Su Yeon placed both her palms on his chest and looked at him with her dizzy eyes, “Promise me that… you will take care of yourself,” she said and moved closer to him, her hand moved up and her fingers gently traced the faint dark circles below his eyes, “you won’t skip meals, or sleep late for your work… promise?”Li Kang Jun held her palm with his other hand, “I promise,” he placed a gentle kiss on her knuckles, making her eyes flutter. To tease his little wife more, he moved his face near her a little. When she noticed it, Su Yeon’s hesitant eyes wandered around his deathly handsome face and cruel sensual lips. The evident de
Even after everyone was done eating, Kang Jun was still busy with his meeting. When he was done, he went downstairs and was about to call the butler, just then his sharp eyes caught something unexpected, relieving his tensed face… On the dining table, all the dishes were covered with the lid and two plates were kept aside… but the most unexpected thing was the person who was waiting for him there… It was his beloved wife… sleeping peacefully with her head resting on the folded hands on the table. She must be waiting for a long to get dozed off. Kang Jun sent the dishes for reheating and sat beside his sleeping beauty. With his face resting on the propped fist, he gently slid off the hair strand on her face behind her ear with his other hand. His warm rough yet gentle touch made Su Yeon’s eyes open slowly, “Oh, wasseo?” she got up, “Wait, let me reheat the dishes—” holding her wrist, Li Kang Jun stopped her, “I have already sent them, but why are you still here?” Su Yeon tried to
Central Hospital,While entering, Lufan’s secretary informed him about the urgent meeting with the directors. Su Yeon assured him, “You go first, I will wait in your cabin.” Lufan assigned the nurses to run some tests on her till he returns.On the other hand, Xiao Xi saw the nurses giggling and teasing Su Yeon while taking her blood sample and checking out the wedding ring, which fuelled burning jealousy in her.After some time, seeing Su Yeon going away, she quickly started walking in her direction. Meanwhile, she heard the nurses murmuring to each other, “I can’t believe she got married.” “Yes yes, how cutely she blushed while talking about her husband!” Completely jealous of it, Xiao Xi grabbed a sharp scalpel from the side trolly and hid it inside her pocket.Su Yeon decided to wait in Lufan’s cabin as the reports will be sent there directly. While waiting for the elevator, she heard someone calling her from behind.“Excuse me”Turning around, she saw a tall girl standing there w
“Objection sustained,” The Judge nodded, “Plaintiff, is it true?” “Anieyo,” Su Yeon’s statement startled everyone, even Lawyer Li. “Actually… we knew each much before than that,” “Can you please elaborate?” the Judge asked, getting a nod from Su Yeon, “Senior and I know each other since… childhood. We both had a secret crush on each other but didn’t know about it. After that, we directly met in our workplace, at Song Empire. I was an intern and he was our Senior in a certain project. It was that time we… fell in love with each other. Before Senior left for country G to start his own company, he had promised me that… he will return as soon as possible and we will get married. We both got busy in our respective careers. Four years later, that is now, on this new year, we met again, as a blind date. I didn’t know that Dr. Bai’s youngest son is none other than… Senior, the person… I love.” Just then, at the end of the courtroom, the door opened and a girl came inside with a man. Her fa
District Court, “All rise” Everyone got up from their seats to greet the judge. As everyone settle down, the judge got startled a little. The Plaintiff sitting on the left side was perfectly fine and composed, whereas, on the left side, the defendant was in a bad state. The Judge cleared his throat a little and said, “Plaintiff’s counselor, you may begin questioning the defendant.” From the Plaintiff’s table, Lawyer Li came forward and gave a formal bow, “Your Honor, members of the jury, my name is Li Jeong Wook, representing the Plaintiff, Yoon Su Yeon in this case.” Glancing at the notepad in his hand once, he turned to the defendant, Mr. Zhu, and started questioning. Though he was patiently replying to Lawyer Li’s questions, his control over his boiling anger started losing, resulting in his annoyed shout, “THAT BITCH RUINED US!!! Someone put her into the jail!!!!” A loud bang on the table rang in the deadly quiet court room. “Defendant, please behave yourself, this language
At Night,Bai Mansion,Grandfather Bai and Dr. Bai Xiu Ying forced Yoon couple to stay at Bai Mansion.“Mother, Father, you should stay here. Yoon mansion is risky as of now, not because of officer Yoon but I am afraid, Zhu’s will play any kind of trick. It’s better protected here,” Li Kang Jun’s sincere request made them difficult to object.Later, Li Kang Jun went to his room as he couldn’t find his wife anywhere. Considering their current awkward relationship, his room would have been the last place she would be in, but surprisingly, she was there, in front of the vanity, completely lost in her thoughts.Meanwhile, Su Yeon was keeping her watch on the table, some voices were ringing in her mind. ‘What were those voices?’ she thought.‘You are mine… only mine’‘Gon ah… he was deeply in love with me! He died because of me! He knew it already and was protecting me from the beginning… I failed to understand his intention... and love…’This was definitely Kang Jun and her voice… but she
“I never saw him before,” Nine shook her head, disappointing everyone.Just then Su Yeon said, “I know him…” which surprised everyone. Nine asked, “You know him? But I never saw him before.” Su Yeon’s guards nodded in agreement.Li Kang Jun looked at Su Yeon, who cleared his doubt, “Nine wouldn’t because it happened recently and they both could not because I met him in the office.”“Do you know anything about him?” Seeing eagerness in his eyes, Su Yeon told him everything, “When I first met him, he was a mailman, and then after few days, I saw him working as a temporary janitor in Song Empire.”He asked, “Can I have his information?”Su Yeon called Gon for it, who was already in the hospital to meet her.Gon came inside with Vice President Song Dae Hyun, “How are you, Manager Yoon?” VP Song asked. “Good morning Professor, I’ve totally recovered now,” he was happy inwardly seeing her completely fine state.“Mr. Secretary, do you remember the temporary Janitor we met that day?” Su Yeon
Ming chuckled, “Ani-ya, he reminded me about my long-lost identity, which I had in my senior year, do you remember?” Qiang thought, “Senior year?” he remembered, “Aaaah! Dr. Bright?” Ming was surprised, “So you do remember! Wait! I never told you my ID name,” she squinted her eyes as he cleared his throat and looked away. A sudden realization hit her, “Jamkkan*… neo hoksi*… ‘strong-guy’?” she asked. Qiang amused, “Omo! You still remember me!” making her speechless, “Dangyeon-hajo*! You proposed to me at the last session, geurigo*… you were my first patient,” she blushed, “Why… did you do it?” Qiang chuckled, “How can I not… you restricted Qiang, but not ‘Strong guy’.” Just then, she got a call from Lan. Ming briefed her as well as Qiang about everything that happened. When the call ended, Qiang asked in a cold voice, “Ming, did you find that imposter’s true identity?” his tone was quite murderous, someone has dared to harm both of their only bestfriend. “No, I couldn’t,” Ming cle
