Chapter 391
He looked special, sitting in a cramped one-room lodging, wearing a tracksuit.
This is really amazing.
He exclaimed as he slurped the broth of the seolleongtang. Yoo-hyun smiled warmly as he watched his boss, whom he admired, show his genuine side for the first time.
Why did Park Seungwoo act so distant around him?
It must have meant that he felt close to him.
Slurp.
After eating a few more spoonfuls of broth, Shin Kyungwook emptied the bowl.
Then he added an unbelievable remark.
How can this be so delicious?
Its because your stomach is upset. You need pain to appreciate joy, dont you?
Ha ha. Thanks to the alcohol, I learned something good.
Shin Kyungwook chuckled and Yoo-hyun made a suggestion.
Shall I show you something better?
What is it?
Lets get up first.
Yoo-hyun smiled and got up first.
It was time to move after filling their stomachs.
Yoo-hyun went outside and walked towards the forest.
The sky that had been dark began to brighten.
As the mist that had been dimly covering cleared a bit, the reservoir with a faint light appeared.
Yoo-hyun reached out his hand and pointed to the reservoir as he went down the stairs.
This is the scenery I see every dawn.
Nice. Is this also part of the special course you mentioned?
Yes. But this time its a bit of a break. I think I stepped on the accelerator too much at first.
Ha ha. Yeah. You were amazing yesterday. I had no idea what was going on.
The noisy conversation like a market, the endless toasts and feasts, and the applause and laughter that kept bursting out.
How did he feel about the atmosphere that Yoo-hyun had become accustomed to?
Shin Kyungwook smirked and asked Yoo-hyun casually.
Did you not like it?
No. I liked it. It was the first time in my life that I experienced such things.
Yoo-hyun smiled at Shin Kyungwooks cheerful expression.
Im glad.
Sometimes a small occasion makes you reflect on your life.
Thats what yesterdays memory was for Shin Kyungwook.
He sat on a fishing chair and looked at the float and said calmly.
I think it was the first time. People saw me as a human being, not as the crown prince of Hansung Electronics.
The villagers think your Korean name is Richard.
Ha ha ha. Right. Thats why they treated me so casually.
The most impressive thing for Shin Kyungwook during the drinking party with the villagers was their attitude.
Yoo-hyun felt the same way, so he sincerely shared what he felt while hanging out with them.
Yes. Thats right. They are people who give everything once they trust you.
Thats right. Thats why I envied you.
What do you mean by that?
It seems like youve completely melted into this place. It looks so comfortable and nice.
As Shin Kyungwook saw, Yoo-hyun was very satisfied with his life in Yeontae-ri.
It wasnt just because he enjoyed playing, eating, and having fun.
The beautiful scenery, the kind people, and the lively atmosphere.
There were many things that he could never feel in Seoul that warmed and made Yoo-hyun happy.
He even had worries that he had never thought of before.
I like it. I really want to live like this forever.
Thats good. But thats not something you can be happy about all the time.
Dont worry. Ive already made up my mind.
Yoo-hyun lifted his fishing rod with a smile on his face.
Splash splash.
A fish was caught.
The day grew brighter and the wind blew gently.
The two men held their fishing rods and watched the float move on the waves.
In between, the gaps were filled with conversation.
You were different from the first time I met you. Your consideration for others, hiding yourself and lifting them up, was very impressive.
Thank you for your kind words.
Yoo-hyun answered with a serious expression, and Director Shin Kyung-wook stuck out his tongue.
I know what you did at the Ulsan factory.
That was a piece of cake.
Haha. Arent you scared?
Its just part of my job.
Shin Kyung-wook, the executive, smiled at Han Yoo-hyuns easygoing attitude.
He stayed in the village until that evening.
He didnt just stay there, but he also walked around the village with Yoo-hyun and had many conversations.
He ate with the villagers again and played park golf.
And when he left.
He waved his hand with a bright smile.
His expression looked very light for some reason.
And a few days later.
Yoo-hyun left his lodging early in the morning.
It was the same time he always ran around the village.
But today was different from yesterday.
Instead of running, he opened the car door next to his lodging.
Clang.
He put his bag on the passenger seat.
The trunk and the back seat were already full of luggage, so the only place to fill was the passenger seat.
Will this be okay?
Yoo-hyun tilted his head and lowered Moon Jung-gus park golf club on the back seat.
Then he stuck Nam Hee-woongs gift set of gongbu-gaju with Lee Young-nams homemade makgeolli in the corner.
He put a container of side dishes made by the restaurant owner on top of it, and filled the corner space with an empty phone box he got from Choi Jung-bok.
It seemed like it wouldnt shake much even if he drove on a bumpy road.
After finishing packing, Yoo-hyun briefly took in the surrounding scenery and got into the drivers seat.
Vroom.
Yoo-hyun drove through the village road.
At this time, he couldnt see Bae Yong-seok who used to clean in front of Bokdeokbang.
Lee Young-nam, who came out to greet Yoo-hyun in the morning, was also the same.
He had already said enough greetings, so he didnt feel sorry.
He thought he knew why they didnt come out.
It was also the villagers consideration not to burden Yoo-hyun.
Yoo-hyun smiled as he thought of those people who were always warm.
But Yoo-hyuns thoughts had to be corrected soon after.
It was when his car reached the end of the village and turned right down the big road.
Between the streetlights on the opposite side of the downhill road, a large banner hung out.
<We sincerely thank Han Yoo-hyun, who worked hard for Yeontae-ri development. Yeontae-ri villagers>
Yoo-hyun snorted at the absurd scene.
Screech.
At that moment, Yoo-hyun had no choice but to stop his car abruptly.
It was because of the villagers under the banner.
There were dozens of villagers gathered in the early morning.
They waved their hands at Yoo-hyun who opened the door and got out.
Han, you did a great job. Be careful on your way.
Call me when you get there.
Lets get together for golf sometime.
Brother, I will never forget you.
Come back whenever you want.
Several voices came across the big road.
Yesterday, and the day before yesterday.
They had already said enough words and said goodbye, but it seemed not enough for them.
Yoo-hyun didnt cross the road that he could walk over in a few steps.
Instead, he bowed his head and greeted them.
Ill be back soon.
He said he would be back instead of goodbye.
It was a comma, not a period.
And that comma meant that Yoo-hyuns heart could be connected again anytime.
The villagers also felt Yoo-hyuns heart and smiled brightly.
Thank you.
A word he had already uttered dozens of times or more.
Yoo-hyun repeated that word in his mind and wrapped up his not-so-short life in Yeontae-ri.
