Tensegrity - CH 44
“Yes, go ahead.”
Jun-Kyung saw a silver sedan coming out of the garage. He stood in front of the window on the first floor and looked out until the car could no longer be seen. Hyun-Seung Min tells such obvious lies that something has happened to the company.
Can I lie like this to my future spouse, even to the person I’m really getting married to?
Of course, if it’s really about the company, it doesn’t matter if he tells lies. This wasn’t a company thing no matter how much Jun-Kyung thinks.
‘Lee Si-Eun…. I’ve never heard of it.’
Who is it that the hard and cold Executive Director Min calls affectionately? He should’ve noticed something strange right from the start. Did he really believe like an idiot? No, why did he even believe it? Jun-Kyung was shocked by his stream of consciousness.
His appetite has swept away. He glanced at the hardened rice and strong soybean paste soup with oil on the surface. It was unbelievable. Did he believe in a man who has nothing to trust and takes advantage of his brother’s death readily?
‘I’m not a bluffer, so the declaration of a real marriage was not false from my end.’
That is not the normal married life Jun-Kyung envisioned.
It is a common couple relationship in the upper class. He will do everything he can to have children and raise them, marry each other based on condition rather than love, and affection and love are satisfied elsewhere while continuing a married life.
“That’s it.”
Relationships outside of the marriage will greet and give gifts to each other. However, property must be passed on only to children born to the married couple. It’s a family put together for that purpose.
“You said you needed your brother’s bloodline. Is it possible that a person named Si-Eun Lee is not a good match for marriage?”
In hindsight, Jun-kyung doesn’t have a very glamorous background for the consort of the heir of a chaebol. Except for the rare male Omega, a decent appearance, and a blunt personality, there is nothing to offer. What if Executive Director Min, who willingly chose Jun-Kyung like that, can’t get married even though he is so desperate?
“Is she a married woman? There is nothing different about it.”
Executive Director Min is the successor of a conglomerate like from the drama and represents the word cliché itself. It is not uncommon for such a person to separate marriage and love.
But Jun-Kyung felt a little weird. To be precise, he felt a strange feeling of betrayal?
“Hey, what am I doing now?”
As both the family and Executive Director Min are famous in the business world, Jun-Kyung was also an accomplice in a fraud in deceiving against the public. What does it matter if there are small personal secrets in front of a great deception? Even if the two matters are related, Jun-Kyung was not involved in that matter.
“Let’s just eat.”
Jun-Kyung sat down on the chair, scooped out the cold rice and stuffed it into his mouth. The strong soybean paste was really delicious even though it had cooled and hardened. Beef seasoned in soybean paste was scooped out, placed on top of vegetables, and a fried egg was placed in a bowl. After adding enough rice, he made a wrapped lettuce and stuffed it in one bite. It was delicious.
Director Min did not arrive until morning. He said he was late. Did he say that he wasn’t coming at all?
After Jun-Kyung ate up the leftover soybean paste for breakfast yesterday, he searched for how to use the dishwasher. After running the dishwasher, Jun-Kyung took a shower and got a message from Executive Director Min.
[Did you wake up? I had a lot of work yesterday, so I slept at work. Did you have breakfast?]
Jun-kyung snorted but didn’t have the courage to make a real scorn against Executive Director Min.
[I had breakfast with the remaining soup.]
After sending a reply, he took out the hair dryer and the phone rang like a ghost. He tried to pretend he didn’t get it because he was drying his hair, but caved in because Director Min is scary.
“Hello.”
ㅡ Did you sleep well yesterday?
“Yes. It’s hard to sleep at work, what if you are tired?”
ㅡ It’s okay. There’s an extra bed.
Si-Eun Lee, that’s too much. Just an extra bed for someone who uses a super king size. Aside from the shoulder width, the legs are going to stick out also.
ㅡ I’d like to have lunch together later, is that okay?
“I think it would be a little difficult.”
ㅡ…….
Director Min probably didn’t know that he would refuse. Jun-Kyung didn’t know either until a message from his mother arrived early in the morning. His mother, who had been stricken by the raging reality, was resurrected. No matter what happens today, he must come home.
ㅡIf it’s because I left without a word yesterday….
“No, it’s not like that. My mother, ah, it’s my mother. She told me to come home. I’m getting ready to go out now. Do you think I’d be upset about something like this with someone who is busy? Most of all, it’s related to the company.”
ㅡ……
The opponent was speechless. What does he have to say? It was fortunate that even a sociopath sometimes showed such a human reaction. If Director Min consistently comes out brazenly, Jun-Kyung will probably be stressed out and will die of old age before having a baby.
“Is it not possible? Shall I postpone it to another day?”
ㅡNo. You can go. I’ll send a car.
“It’s okay. Don’t send a car. I can just take a taxi.”
ㅡ It’s dangerous.
“Taxi? Are you serious?”
ㅡ….
Are taxis dangerous? Of course, there are times when taxis are dangerous. But it’s not like he’s riding in the dark outskirts of the city. It is late in the morning so how can taking a taxi in the middle of the city in broad daylight be dangerous? This time, Executive Director Min remained silent.
“I’ll message you when I leave. Just in case, the taxi number too.”
ㅡ Okay. Be careful.
This time, without hesitation, Jun-Kyung hung up the phone first. It was because the care that Director Min showed to Jun-Kyung had somehow decreased.
“We just have to satisfy our needs.”
In the place where people care about their own profits, is it necessary to have a sincere gratitude for all kinds of care?
***
Jun-Kyung came earlier than the arrival time notified to his mother in advance to see his brother first.
As soon as he entered the cafe, Jun-Hee, who had been contacted in advance, got up. Even before asking for a drink, he dragged Jun-kyung to a seat in the far corner of the cafe. Without a moment to catch his breath, he threw in a bottle of water and started interrogation.
“Are you serious?”
“Then is it fake?”
Jun-kyung did not have the ability to lay iron plates as much as Executive Director Min did to his family. The older brother who smelled the grassy fraud did not seem to believe it at all.
“You said you don’t like to have relationships at work.”
“Like it or not, everything didn’t go as planned. You know, it just manifests itself.”
Their alpha, omega manifestation didn’t just shock Jun-Kyung. It’s hard to tell how many people in the world are waiting for Omega to manifest, but at least one person was certain. Such a person is still confused over his younger brother’s sudden announcement of marriage.
“Are you pregnant?”
When Jun-kyung brought up the key point, Jun-hee was a little embarrassed. At any other time, Jun-Kyung would have blushed first, but not this time. Perhaps he was reminded of the act of leading to pregnancy rather than the pregnancy itself, Junhee rolled his eyes as if embarrassed.
“Even between the Alpha and Omega, I can’t imagine you doing it. You really hated it.”
“Right.”
“So how?”
“I got into trouble after drinking.”
Jun-Kyung said it as it is. It was not a lie, it was just that the opponent was different.
“What?” As if hearing the most stupid thing in the world, Junhee opened his mouth wide. “Are you crazy?”
“I know.”
“Did you take precaution?” The screaming voice grew louder.
“I know. I didn’t even know it was an accident. I found out after waking up.”
“This madman….”
After suppressing his irritation and spitting out harsh swear words, Jun-Hee leaned his upper body back and folded his arms. The eyes under the wrinkled forehead were harsh. Even if someone takes a quick look as they walk, they can tell that he was angry.
It is extremely rare for Jun-Hee Ho to be angry. In particular, it is safe to say that he rarely gets angry with his younger brother, Jun-kyung.
Why are you getting angry at me?
Even though Jun-Kyung was dissatisfied in his heart, he did not express it outwardly. To be honest, he seemed to know why Jun-Hee was angry.
What if Jun-hee, an Omega, gets pregnant after drinking and having an accident with Alpha, whom he doesn’t know well? Jun-kyung first killed Jun-hee in half, then grabbed him by the collar, locked him in the room, and went out to bury his opponent with a shovel.
In comparison, Jun-Hee, who endured with two loud shouts, was a bodhisattva.
“When did you do that?”
“It’s been a while. About four months.”
Jun-Hee, who had been calculating the date for a while, was astonished again.
“Is this why you suddenly want to quit a company you used to work for?”
“It’s not just about this.”
When Jun-Kyung left the company, he only talked to his older brother Jun-Hee. His parents found out after a while.
“Wow…Jun-kyung Ho, you are really new.”
“I don’t think I am me either.”
“So? Did it happen after a lot of accidents?”
“No, Just one time.”
Jun-Hee made a strange expression when he was serious.
“Once? Is that possible?”
“It’s not common, but it’s possible.”
“Does that alpha have super-ultra sperm?”
Jun-Kyung almost spit out the water he just drank. Jun-Hee held out a paper napkin to Jun-Kyung.
“Don’t talk like a doctor.”
“Did the doctor say that too? So I guess it really is.”
“It’s not like that.”
“The doctor said so too.”
“That’s true but…” Jun-Kyung was at a loss as to how to respond.
“That person is really what he looks like. Just in a heartbeat….”
“Ah, bro!”
Jun-Kyung groaned out loud in shame. He quickly bowed his head as the nearby guests looked at him. Jun-Kyung warned with his eyes that he would kill him if he continued. Jun-Hee snorted but didn’t make fun of him anymore.
“Why are you that way? Didn’t you cuss that you didn’t like him?”
