The meal at the restaurant was over.

Although I received a ridiculous question from the start, the conversations after overcoming him were ordinary.

Moon Jong-hyuk was less interested in our dating process than expected.

The main topics were ordinary Holder stories, such as stories about the clan, recent trends in the Holder system, and how academy life is.

Whether we’ve been dating for a few days or where we met...

There was no need to memorize such detailed elements.

Instead, he suggested a light drink after dinner.

...Just the two of us.

“Dad! Stop bothering Jae-hyun. What are you trying to do with a 20-year-old?”

Of course, Moon Ga-eun rebelled.

The dining table was already uncomfortable, and without her, anxiety could only double.

By the way, it feels strange that Moon Ga-eun doesn’t say ‘Do Jae-hyun’, but keeps saying ‘Jae-hyun’.

Is this why the first name is important?

“Haha. Don’t be like that. Dad likes Jae-hyun, so that’s why. We’re just going to have a normal conversation like at dinner.”

“Yes, Moon... No, Ga-eun. It’s okay, so go ahead.”

I met eyes with Moon Ga-eun who was anxious.

And I sent a look that it was really okay.

Honestly, if a question like ‘When are you going to get married?’ comes out like before, it’s a bit difficult, but it was once then and even if it comes out, I can somehow mumble it.

First of all, unlike Kang Woo-hyun, Moon Jong-hyuk was friendly to his daughter’s boyfriend, so the conversation itself was not uncomfortable.

Moon Ga-eun looked at Moon Jong-hyuk and me alternately...

Soon she sighed and nodded her head.

“...Okay.”

So after Moon Ga-eun left.

Moon Jong-hyuk and I moved to a high-end wine bar nearby.

The inside was surprisingly ordinary.

Not flashy lighting and simple atmosphere.

Simple decorations filled the store for a wine bar.

It was a story I knew roughly too.

Moon Ga-eun was one of the main characters of the original work in her own way, so naturally her family relationship came out at least roughly.

However, this is the first time I heard about the complex family situation intertwined in between.

“I tried to forget my sorrow by working. There was no room for me to take care of myself or my family. For 15 years, work and work again. While working frantically, I finally grew up my clan... But it was terrible for my daughter as a father.”

Fortunately, Moon Ga-eun grew up properly.

She filled in the gap by spreading love inside herself without receiving love...

She didn’t have anyone coming close to her, but she took courage first and got to know new people.

Her bright and energetic personality more than anyone else’s

It proved miracles over time.

“So you kept introducing her...”

“Haha. That’s right. The father who has no qualifications wanted to find his daughter’s partner late. Even though Ga-eun grew up brightly, I thought she didn’t date because of such a past.”

He seemed to think that the reason Moon Ga-eun kept refusing the introduction was because of her past.

Of course, Moon Ga-eun’s thoughts may be different.

‘...I think it’s just because I hate the real thing in the first place.’

He might be misunderstanding something quite a bit.

But I understood the heart of a father who wanted to take care of his daughter.

He must have wanted to find someone who loves and cherishes her as much as he couldn’t do for her.

That’s probably why he asked about the hasty marriage.

“Anyway, it’s really fortunate that she is dating a good friend like you. It seems that I was worried about nothing. Ga-eun is already washing away her wounds and living well. Haha.”

“...Ga-eun will also know Holder Moon Jong-hyuk’s heart well.”

For some reason, I felt the back of a bitter father, and awkwardly offered comfort.

He smiled silently and drank his glass of alcohol.

Surprisingly, really surprisingly...

The conversation with Moon Jong-hyuk was not boring.

“By the way. Are you working under Kang Woo-hyun in the <Judgment of Fire> now?”
