Chapter 26:

“Yeon Seo, are you awake?”

“Yeah.”

A hand like a fern reaches out and holds Jin’s hand. The owner of the hand is Yoo Eunho, who picks up his younger brother while walking with small steps.

“Do you want to go to the beach and play?”

“Beach!”

They must have gone on a vacation abroad, as the surrounding scenery is exotic. Under the warm sun, there is an emerald sea and a white sand beach. The young Yoo Yeon Seo also opens his mouth and looks at the sparkling light on the sea.

“Kids.”

Seeing the child bringing another child, Yoo Gunmin smiles brightly. They are so alike. He still has his arms in casts, but... He lifts up his two sons with both hands. Yoo Eunho and Yoo Yeon Seo laugh out loud.

“Where is mom?”

“Mom is over there. Do you want to go to mom?”

Yoo Gunmin heads to the beach in response to Yoo Yeon Seo’s question.

“Honey.”

A woman wearing a wide-brimmed hat under a parasol turns around. Heeseo’s face is still not clearly visible.

“Kids!”

Heeseo’s face flickers like a damaged tape and waves her hand.

“Ah.”

Yoo Yeon Seo blinks his eyes as he wakes up from his dream. His head is dizzy. His chest is also nauseous, but there is nothing more to vomit since he already threw up and lost consciousness. Maybe it was because he still had the lingering feeling of happiness.

‘Yoo Gunmin and Heeseo seemed to get along well...’

Since it was a meeting between a second-generation chaebol and a top star, many media outlets wrote unconfirmed novels about them. Yoo Gunmin pressed Heeseo with his background and married her. Yoo Gunmin was Heeseo’s sponsor, such low-quality content was published in magazines.

But the common rumor was that Yoo Gunmin fell in love with Heeseo at first sight and chased after her to woo her. If someone saw the memory he saw, they would be sure that the rumor was true.

‘It doesn’t seem like an environment to commit suicide.’

Or was it because of his grandfather? Or because of his grandmother and aunts he hadn’t met yet? Even if Yoo Gunmin had a weak personality, did he not have the courage to protect his wife from his blood relatives?

‘It doesn’t seem like it...’

He was not a weak person, being the son of Yoo Changho, the chairman.

Then, was the main body’s suspicion really true?

It was doubtful, but there was no evidence yet. Yoo Yeon Seo tried to correct his thoughts that were jumping to that direction. He didn’t want to get involved in troublesome matters.

Yoo Yeon Seo thought of the appearance of Choi Yujin and his family that he saw before. Even if Heeseo left the world like that, the people who were left behind somehow lived on.

‘By the way, what happened to me in 2207?’

Judging by the fact that he safely traveled through time, it meant that someone had collected his corpse... He didn’t have much attachment to Kang Jinhoo’s life, but he still missed the shallow relationships he had in that era.

Anyway, he put away his thoughts as Yoo Yeon Seo.

“Beta, how long did I lose consciousness?”

<2 hours 16 minutes 23 seconds.>

He woke up early in the morning and synchronized his memory, so he still had plenty of time until the lesson. Yoo Yeon Seo casually threw the blood-stained towel into the washing machine and headed to the kitchen.

As expected, someone had prepared a meal and left. And the house was still dust-free, as if someone cleaned it regularly. The house was still too big for him to get used to.

Yoo Yeon Seo, reveals his recent status on SNS... The warm-hearted trio of actors

└Park Minwoo and Lee Hangeul are so sociable lol

└└What are you talking about lol

└└└I agree with sociable lol

└Isn’t this the first time Yoo Yeon Seo posted a picture like this?

└Hot topic train boarding

Movie ‘White Tiger’ cranks up... Staff’s SNS posts ‘The gift from actor Yoo Yeon Seo’ become a hot topic

└Is this fake?

└Is that SNS really from White Tiger staff?

“This is something that makes it to the news...”

As expected, influence was the best. He went to the fan community that Itaegyeom told him about.

“Did you make up with Vice President Choi?”

“...How did the rumor start?”

How did it start that there was even a rumor that they made up?

“They said you and Vice President Choi had a big fight and got on bad terms? Someone heard you fighting that you can’t acknowledge her as your mother?”

“They also said that you were so harsh to her that Vice President Choi fell out of favor with her family.”

Park, the manager, joined in and rattled off the rumors. They made a competent professional woman into a pitiful heroine of misfortune, just by hearing the rumors.

It was ridiculous. Of course, they should filter out the rumors themselves, but if he knew the main body, it would be more than enough.

“Didn’t you go to NMA instead of JMA to protest against Vice President Choi?”

“And at NMA, they paired you with Won Seven and you got a lot of hate, and you made a fuss that you wouldn’t go to any music awards for a while.”

Ah, so that’s why Choi Yujin liked him so much. Yoo Yeon Seo felt a bit guilty. He could do better from now on.

“It wasn’t a fight that needed to be made up.”

“Come on, get along with your mother. Where can you find someone like her? Even if you and her are on bad terms, she still pushed you a lot from behind.”

He meant someone with that background, not someone like her. Anyway, from the perspective of Halo Media, it was better for Yoo Yeon Seo and JSENM to get along, as they would get more push. Maybe they were planning to put some rookie in his next work and sell them.

Yoo Yeon Seo smiled playfully.

“Then, should I get along with them and go to JSENM? I think I fit better with them than here?”

“Hey, no. You can’t do that. Even if you act so rudely, we stayed with you with loyalty, right?”

“Loyalty? It’s because of the background I have.”

“Are you really not going? Huh?”

Han Juno, the president, quickly became submissive and hovered around Yoo Yeon Seo, worrying. He was a fun person to tease.

Yoo Yeon Seo, who had been teasing the president for a while, opened his mouth wide at the pile of scripts that Itaegyeom brought with a whine.

“But the scripts seem to be more than before?”

“This industry is fast with rumors.”

Ah, so the people who participated in ‘White Tiger’ were spreading the word diligently? It was worth being a money-grubber.

He had such a fixed image that many people doubted him, but the smart ones tried to poke him with scripts.

“It’s already on YouTube and it’s a hot topic.”

“Really?”

“Look, look.”

The title was Yoo Yeon Seo’s transformation?!

Three entertainment reporters wearing masks were telling the stories they heard from the staff of ‘White Tiger’. It was more like spreading rumors than providing information about the entertainment industry.

“President Han, do you watch these videos?”

“No? A producer I know asked me if this was true and sent me the link.”

Wow, if these videos were already uploaded, the impact was no joke.

“If you just fix your personality a bit, you’ll be a golden goblin in this field.”

“Golden goblin? What’s that?”

“Don’t you play games?”

Itaegyeom put down the script and raised his hands on his waist in disbelief.

“Wow, this is not good. When are you going to the PC room with me?”

“Taegyeom, you know this is not the time, right? Follow me to the conference room.”

The effect of the lame excuse was amazing. Itaegyeom was dragged away by Park, the manager, to receive special education.

“But where did Secretary Im go?”

“Oh, I sent him to check something.”

Choi Yujin’s nephew’s engagement party. It was a place where all the people from the chaebol family gathered. Yoo Yeon Seo asked Im Seunghyun to investigate the personal information of everyone who participated in that place.

‘I heard that the head of strategic planning department also came out.’

It was a golden opportunity to show his changed self, so his grandfather was also eyeing that place.

‘But I came here to act, right?’

If he was acting his life itself, then it was acting... But somehow, he felt like he was doing something else than acting.
