Chapter 65
[Sirius Year-End Party (2)]
Maybe because they were employees children, they werent particularly mischievous.
Unlike Jin Sena and the children who followed her, these kids werent accustomed to parties.
Most of the children gathered at the party were from ordinary families. Their party suits and dresses seemed quite uncomfortable.
Whats wrong with them? Theres so much delicious food!
Euna, with chocolate smeared around her mouth, teased the approaching children.
This is delicious. Do you want to try it too?
Without hesitation, Euna held out a chocolate-covered skewer to the children, not minding if chocolate got on her hands. She handed the boy closest to her a piece of bread coated in chocolate.
Here, try it. Its really delicious.
But my dad told me to stay put
Are you not going to eat it?
W-Well, Ill eat it.
She captivated the hearts of the boys at Doan Elementary School. Today, she was even wearing light makeup and a standout dress.
The chocolate around her mouth was nothing at all. It was even adorable.
How is it? Delicious, right?
I-Its tasty
As the boy put the bread into his mouth, his face turned red, and he stuttered. Then, the other children began reaching out for the food as well.
It looks like theres more over there!
Euna became the leader of the children in no time. She pulled up the hem of her dress, which was getting in her way, and ran ahead. The boys in suits followed her, running like neighborhood kids.
The girls were no exception. Eunas friendliness didnt discriminate between boys and girls. The children who were just shy a moment ago were now raising their hems like Euna and running alongside her. Some even took off their shoes and ran barefoot.
Haaa.
Eunha didnt want to be part of the parade of children. He was worried about Eunas behavior, but he didnt think it would be a problem with the children behind her.
He wanted to enjoy the food in silence.
This is delicious too. Wow, theres even horse meat?
Eunha decided to enjoy the food that he wouldnt normally be able to eat. He was frustrated by the increasingly tight belt around his waist, but it wasnt often that he had the chance to eat something like this.
Soon he was not even sitting down, but standing, gobbling up the food. The adults were busy greeting each other without touching their food, so it was nice to be able to walk around unnoticed.
Hah~
I gulped down my Coke and wiped the grease from my throat. I wiped the corner of my mouth with a napkin and reached for the dessert.
Huh?
Then Eunha noticed a girl standing still at the edge of his vision.
I cant do that either.
Her hair was worn in a braid that exuded innocence, and while it looked like it was tied loosely, the outline of the knot became clearer as it moved downward, a calculated effort.
He had braided Baekryeons hair before the regression and Eunas hair afterward, but he had never created such a natural, calculated braid.
Moreover, the girl looking out of the window had perfectly executed the side braid. The way she looked up at the night sky gave her an otherworldly air as if she had descended from the moon.
Even when she stood still, she was the center of attention, and the people she was chatting with were squinting at her because of her otherworldly appearance. The boys holding the glasses exchanged glances with each other, trying to talk to her.
But the girl was indifferent to her surroundings. She stared out the window, unmoving.
Youre missing out on life right now.
Eunha spoke to her from the party venue, where she was staring out the window. She was giving off the same vibe of being irritated with the world as he had been before.
Missing out?
He wasnt the only one who spoke to her. Boys had been approaching her out of curiosity for a while now, but she hadnt responded to any of them because she couldnt be bothered to deal with them.
But if someone started an argument, it was a different story.
For the first time, she tore her gaze away from the night sky.
Pretty.
Eunha thought as he saw the child looking at him with a cold face. If Euna was a cheerful beauty, Hayang was a cute beauty, and Seona was a calm beauty, she was a cold beauty.
If I had to put it mildly, she was similar to the fairy goddess Im Gaeul.
Ah, annoying.
What?
Oh, sorry. That came out wrong.
Her true thoughts burst out and she regretted it.
He furrowed his brow and looked at her inquisitively.
I said its a loss, a loss.
Why is it a loss to be like this?
Because you dont know how delicious the food here is.
With that, he stabbed his fork at the food on his plate. He popped a piece of meat covered in barbecue sauce into his mouth and nodded in satisfaction.
When are kids like us going to get food like this again, I better eat it while I can.
He knew how happy he was to eat while he could.
Of course I know Han Seo-yeon.
Eunha was also familiar with the Han Seo-yeon that Han Do-young was introducing. She was the successor to the Sirius Group, following in the footsteps of Han Do-young, the next chairman.
She was older than me Was it four years?
Hello. Im Han Seo-yeon. Please take care of me.
Han Seo-yeon was an unassuming third generation chaebol. She was an executive who excelled at reading trends and making the best decisions.
So Eunha was determined to look good to her, too.
But then.
And this is the second one, Han Seo-hyun.
Eh?
Did I hear wrong?
Eunha blinked, forgetting to be polite. He even repeated that she had misheard.
Or not.
Call me Han Seo-hyun.
Suddenly, she was standing next to Seo-yeon, greeting him gently.
Eunha, I was surprised to see you with Seohyun.
We met here and got to know each other.
He seemed surprised that Eunha was eating with Seohyun because the son he knew didnt like to socialize.
I see. Please continue to be friendly with Seohyun. Shes so shy that I dont know who she is.
Han Do-young was also surprised that his daughter, who hated people, showed an unexpected side. He hid his feelings and chuckled, hoping that the two children would continue to have a good relationship.
Yeah, yeah.
Of course, he hadnt seen this coming.
What the hell.
He thought of the future as he knew it.
He knew that Han Do-Young , the next chairman of Sirius Group, had one wife and one child, Han Seo-Yeon.
He didnt even know about Han Seo-hyuns existence.
He thought she was just another child from a modest family.
He hadnt realized she was Han Do-youngs second daughter.
Be good to me in the future.
Seohyun smiled at the still bewildered man.
It was her first smile of the day.
Eunha couldnt react at all. The acts he had committed against that girl replayed in his mind over and over again.
Lets go, then.
Yes, Father.
Yes.
After the introduction, Han Do-young was about to leave.
Father, wait a moment.
Hm? Sure.
He hadnt expected her to hold on to him in public, having been trained in etiquette from a young age. He was once again surprised by her appearance and was curious about what she wanted to do, so he decided to stay in his place.
Huh?
Seohyun walked over to Eunha. She walked right up to him and leaned down,
And Im two years older than you.
Oh.
Additional blow.
Seohyun walked away without listening to his excuses.
Eunha could only stare after her as she walked away.
Then, their gazes met as she turned her head. She seemed to be smiling mischievously.
He had been played.
He had a motto of repaying double when someone played him.
But that wasnt the issue.
What? Whats wrong?
Maybe Dad, You are about to get fired.
What? What do you mean?
Eunha stood still, not explaining.
Three days had passed.
The end of a year had passed just like that.
E/N: I thought it was Lee yoo jung!! (The girl who practically gave Eunha a second life) Ugh, I want to see her soon
