Theatrical Regression Life Chapter 596

Episode 596

“Oh my, what should I do with these familiar faces!”

A nice Sunday afternoon.

“Come on, everyone, come on in! “I even closed the store today so I could treat you all!”

President Choi Jeong-man happily welcomed the survivors.

The survivors who had been called by his invitation were grateful for Choi Jeong-man’s hospitality, but for a moment, they each began to blink at the sight of something strange.

“Hey boss?”

“huh? Okay, okay, Jooyoung, just say what you say. “What do you need?”

“No, that’s not it....”

It was Woo Woo-young who held the gun.

“You’re carrying Minhong in the sack.”

President Choi Jeong-man was carrying Choi Min-hong in a swaddle similar to that of a newborn baby.

President Choi Jeong-man spoke steadfastly.

“It’s cute, right?”

“Ah yes. cute.”

“ha ha ha!”

Woo Joo-young amazingly captured the meaning behind the smile, telling her not to ask any more questions.

‘...Well, how bad must Minhong have felt while he was alone in the secret world.’

Even this time, Minhong Choi went out to play with a group of high school students and got eaten up by the underworld. I couldn’t help but think of President Choi Jeong-man, who must have been worried about how long Choi Min-hong, who was just a kindergartener, would be able to survive in a team without even a single adult.

“Minhong is already sleeping?”

“That’s right. “I told him not to sleep because there was a party later... but he fell asleep right away.”

“Minhong must have been having a hard time this time, so it would be better to just let him sleep. “Minhong looks very comfortable, probably because he’s like his dad. I really like his expression.”

“okay? is it?”

President Choi Jeong-man was very pleased with Woo Soo-young’s words. It was evident that he suffered from guilt after sending his son to the underworld alone. Woo Woo-young was secretly worried about Choi Jeong-man.

‘I shouldn’t have developed something like obsessive-compulsive disorder like that.’

Unlike Choi Min-hong, who was somehow twisted, his father, Choi Jeong-man, was an extremely normal person. Above all, he was a good adult who had great affection for his family, but since he was such a Choi Jeong-man, he must have been anxious about his situation and not a main member.

Choi Jeong-man could not unconditionally protect Choi Min-hong when his son was in danger of death. Woo Woo-young, who has no children, could not even imagine how a father would feel in a situation where his son could die at any time without his knowledge.

‘But you can’t always carry Minhong like that...’

Choi Jeong-man’s insistence on carrying Minhong Choi might be one of the expressions of such anxiety.

He had always been the person who allowed the children to roam freely, but now it felt like a kind of restraint. Even if the reason is for the safety of his son.

“Wow Minhong is so cute...! “Look at these cheeks.”

Woo Woo-young’s worries quickly melted away due to Kwon Yeon-hee’s fuss.

President Choi Jeong-man smiled cheerfully.

“The child is not a picky eater, so his face is very puffy.”

“Can I poke you in the cheek?”

“What if Minhong wakes up later? “I’m sleeping, so don’t wake me up.”

“Wow, yes.”

Kwon Yeon-hee quietly approached Woo Joo-young and asked.

“Team leader, team leader, have you seen Minhong’s baby cheek-like dumplings?”

“Oh... I see...”

“Why are you looking like that?”

“I felt fortunate to have Yeonhee on our team.”

A bright colleague who cuts through unnecessarily long thoughts is always welcome.

While some people gathered towards Choi Min-hong, Lee Jae-heon and some survivors gathered towards Jang Seo-ah.

As soon as Lee Jae-heon entered President Choi Jeong-man’s soup restaurant, he was holding Jang Seo-ah in his arms.

“Oh, okay. “Have you been well?”

“Hey....”

“Why is the kid like this? Don’t cry, don’t cry. “Your pretty face is hurt.”

“Hiiiiing....”

“Mister, you were wrong.”

Lee Jae-heon was doing his best to comfort Jang Seo-ah.

“The man just said. Meat patty....”

“Why are you saying that?”

“Meat ground in a blender....”

“Oh my gosh.”

“I was torn to pieces and just... evil....”

“They said I was wrong.”

Seo Jang-hwa said upon seeing that.

“It’s good to be self-employed.”

“Why on earth do our Janghwa students do this to me?”

“No... Of course, it’s true that I escaped thanks to you, but... honestly, it was a shock to me that you got crushed. “But what did the babies think of that?”

“So I did something wrong?”

“You said everything was wrong before, but now you’re suddenly like this...?”

However, Seo Jang-hwa did not get angry or sneer. Unlike her usual strong push, she pressed her lips a few times before sighing deeply and giving up.

“...Uncle, he didn’t do anything wrong.”

“That’s right. you’re good.”

“Okay, thank you. “Thanks to you, I didn’t fall behind.”

“Student Janghwa really knows how to use polite and kind words.”

“...Oh, I’m really upset.”

Seo Jang-hwa was so annoyed that he couldn’t make eye contact with Lee Jae-heon. It was proof that this trip to the aquarium had quite a shock to her.

Vivian, seeing Seo Jang-hwa like that, asked Jae-heon Lee.

Rather than the emotions themselves being blunt, the way they expressed them was evaluated as snappy, cold-hearted, and threatening.

Lee Jae-heon’s heart warmed at the sight of such a guy disguising himself as a harmless chick.

“Mister....”

“Oh, yes, yes.”

Poor bastard.

‘There’s no difference between him and me.’

It’s all because this world is so soft.

Although Lee Jae-heon grumbled inwardly, he felt reassured by Park Min-jun, who naturally infiltrated among the survivors. Since it was a new character, it would have been a pain in many ways if the existing characters were unfamiliar, but since they were acting as if they were originally a team, there was no discomfort.

Thinking like that, Lee Jae-heon gently touched Jang Seo-ah’s cheek.

“Jang Seo-ah, would you like the child to raise his head? “Your pretty face has become a dumpling.”

“It’s not a dumpling...”

“Man, that tone is a little scary. Seo-ah, are you angry?”

“I’m not angry....”

“Then Seo-ah, let’s eat some meat. “The owner made it really delicious, but it was a waste.”

“...Hiiiing....”

“The skin here is crispy and delicious. right?”

Jang Seo-ah pretended not to be able to help herself and put the shell in her mouth and soon slowly stopped crying.

“...sigh....”

“It’s delicious, right? “I heard it’s delicious.”

“Huh....”

“Shall I give you some more peel?”

It certainly seemed like delicious food was a quick fix for crying kids.

‘I think I know why you’re crying and clinging to me like this.’

It was probably because Lee Jae-heon, who returned to reality, did not come to pick up Jang Seo-ah.

While the other survivors were in the underworld, Lee Yun-byeol also did not go to Lee Jae-heon’s house. Not only was there no one at home to look after it, but Lee Jae-heon himself was in a disorganized state, so he just left it at CEO Jeong-man Choi’s house...

‘It must have been quite a wound.’

As expected, it was difficult for children to understand.

“What do you think about going to your house after we finish eating today?”

“...I like it.”

“Okay then, you have to eat well so you can sleep well at home.”

“Ugh....”

“Oh my, I’m eating well.”

Lee Jae-heon, who succeeded in soothing Jang Seo-ah, gave the child to Hong Gyeong-jun, who was sitting next to him. Hong Gyeong-jun, surprised by the sudden action, looked up at Lee Jae-heon with doubt.

Jaeheon Lee said with a tired face.

“restroom.”

“Ah yes.”

Hong Gyeong-jun must have thought that he couldn’t take the child to the bathroom, so he nodded obediently. Jang Seo-ah seemed a little dissatisfied with being separated from Lee Jae-heon, but like a child who can’t be forced, she accepted it.

Around the time Jaeheon Lee was away, a new person came to visit.

Jing...

“Over there.”

Surprisingly, it was Dr. Seo In-young.

“You said there was a meeting here...”

“―Ssaeaeaeam!!!”

“Surprise!!!”

By far, Kwon Yeon-hee greeted him most warmly.

“Sir, how are you?? Do you know how anxious I was when I didn’t get a reply on time? Were there any problems after going out into the secret world?? Are you feeling okay?? how have you been doing??”

“Yeo Yeonhee... just a moment.”

“Come inside now! “There’s no way I’m just hanging around a doorway somewhere!”

“Huh.”

Kwon Yeon-hee grabbed Seo In-young by the collar and dragged her into the store. As Kwon Yeon-hee treated her without hesitation, other survivors also accepted Dr. Seo In-young without any hesitation.

It was the so-called ‘friend of my friend’ power.

“Are you Seo In-young?”

“It’s nice to meet you. I never thought we’d have another doctor on the team...”

“I heard you treated Yeonhee every time she got hurt?”

In such a warm atmosphere.

“....”

Hong Gyeong-jun was the only one with a subtle expression.

‘...I feel something...’

Around the time his eyes were going back and forth between Park Min-jun and Seo In-young, Lee Jae-heon came out of the bathroom and returned to his seat, shaking off his wet hands. Lee Jae-heon, who wiped the moisture from his hands with a handkerchief, opened his mouth.

“What is it, someone else came again?”

“Ah, Manager. Don’t you remember? I’m the doctor who helped Yeonhee survive together last time...”

“My memories from that time are a bit sparse.”

“I see.”

“So, what kind of teacher is this again...”

Lee Jae-heon turned his gaze away from Hong Gyeong-jun and made eye contact with Seo In-young.

And Seo In-young confirmed Lee Jae-heon’s face.

“....”

“....”

The two remained silent for a long time.

Seo In-young was the first to open her mouth.

“...uh?”

Kwon Yeon-hee later testified that it was an example of a face that said, ‘Why are you coming out there?’
