Childhood Friend of the Youngest Daughter of a Conglomerate Family

30 – Are you reluctant?

I entered the house almost dragged by Ara.

Only then did I return to my confused mind and thanked Ara.

“Looks like your school ended early today too? Uh… thanks just now I was very embarrassed because of Kim Tae-yeon.”

“… You can’t bring a kid like that into your home.”

“But… Were you okay outside the house? I keep seeing Kim Tae-yeon at school, but they found out that we live together… “

“Doesn’t that matter? Rather, who is he? Why is Sol clinging to you so much?”

A question that cuts off my words and comes in.

I was a little taken aback, but I answered confidently because I was proud.

“No, they just sit next to me, and even though I told them not to, they kept clinging to me.”

“… Didn’t Sol give you room to do that?”

“… What?”

Ara pounced on me and said.

Her eyes looking up at me looked even sharper because she was Ara, who was in the mid-160’s.

I was annoyed with tears for a moment.

“What do you mean I gave you room? In your eyes, I had feelings for Taeyeon Kim, so I couldn’t seem to get rid of her. Are you saying I should have tried hard to get it off? She’s a girl too!?”

“Why not? If it were me, if a boy I didn’t have a crush on me would have slapped me and screamed at me? Sol didn’t do that to you. Didn’t you have a lot of fun?”

“What nonsense! Yooara, you can do that because you are a woman. How can I slap a girl?”

“Why can’t you do that to a woman who commits s*xual harassment like that? It was so crazy that she rubbed her breasts against you?”

“What kind of breasts are you talking about? I didn’t feel that!”

“Did I see it? And isn’t it you who did the wrong thing now? Why are you so loud?”

Even if I go out strong, I didn’t lose a word and answered.

… Did I do something wrong? What did you do wrong?

I kept warning Taeyeon Kim.

If Kim Tae-yeon tried to come into the house, then I really thought about using my strength to separate her.

And… Why did I have to listen to Yooara say that in the first place?

“What are you?”

“What?”

“Ah, who are you to say that it is wrong? Ara, what are you to me? … What am I to you?”

“…… “

“Tell me. Why are you angry Tell me what I am saying is this is wrong.”

Ara could not answer.

He just looked up at me with trembling pupils.

Usually, I would have stopped because I felt sorry for her like this, but I hurried to answer.

“… Answer me.”

“… You, you…… “

A trembling voice barely leaked out.

I waited without further haste.

But the sound the trembling voice made was not what I expected.

“You… Because you are precious to me… So that’s it… It’s just that Sol is afraid you’ll meet a bad girl… “

“… So you’re saying it’s okay if you’re a nice girl?”

“That… “

“Really? Is that your heart?”

“…… “

Ara couldn’t speak anymore.

I just stared at the floor and trembled.

That pitiful figure became the answer that spoke to her heart more than any words.

“… Okay? OK then. Ara, I’ll bring you a child you won’t worry about. So you have no complaints?”

“So, Sol, wait… “

Leaving behind the earnest voice, I came out of Ara’s room.

And then I realized.

Why was Kim Tae-yeon clinging to me, and other women so displeased?

Why am I so frustrated and angry at Ara who distances herself from me?

… I love uara

———-

“I’m here Grandpa.”

“Yes… I know… “

“How are you feeling?”

“How is your body! What did you mean by asking! How are you feeling? To your eyes, I look like something is broken!”

“… It was my mistake. You look very correct.”

Facing King Yoo who was limp as if he was lying on the sofa, Ara politely replied.

A very frail old man with eyes wandering in the air and a long cough was sensitive to his own health concerns.

Yoo Chul-wang, whose health has deteriorated rapidly this year, has hardly been involved in external activities.

Most of the company’s work was entrusted to Jaejun Yoo. He still has enough stake left to shake the company.

And Araman visited his house, which even his children rarely visit, once or twice a month.

A piece of old paper on the table caught Ara’s eyes.

“What is this? Did someone send you a letter? Were you reading this?”

“Don’t touch! Take that hand off!”

“… Oh, sorry.”

Ara withdrew his hand trying to hold the letter at the sudden overreaction of King Yoo Cheol, who had been suffering from pain.

What is that reaction? Could it be a report sent by those who watch over him?

… Well, what does that matter?

Ara smiled as if it was not a big deal and handed over the present she had brought to him.

“What is all this useless. What I need is what I can find on my own… “

“Still, receiving a present is a different feeling. I brought it because I heard it’s good for restoring energy.”

“Sounds like Ji-ami… And with such a cheap thing… “

“… If I had to buy it with my pocket money, I could only buy that much.”

“Huh… “

King Yoocheol gestured to a nearby servant to collect Ara’s gift.

King Yoo Cheol asked while having someone else serve the tea.

“What are you going to do with college? Are you planning on going to college in Korea?”

“Sure. Where am I going to leave my grandfather? I’m not even an older brother, so there’s no need to go far to study.”

“… Is there any other reason?”

Is it a start again?

Knowing that this was a question with Hansol in mind, Ara brought up another topic.

“There are other reasons. I do some sns these days. You know what?”

“I heard. What are you doing for a celebrity nabbing? My granddaughter does a bizarre dance like a tantara… Are you trying to earn pocket money because your father didn’t pay for it?”

“Isn’t it okay? Everyone likes the granddaughter of a chaebol family for being kind and easy-going. Doesn’t she also improve the corporate image? There have been several articles on the Internet.”

Ara’s nonchalant answer made King Yoocheol snort.

“Ha! What are the benefits of doing so… No matter how good a impression you make, the public will bite you as if you were going to die if you fall once. This thing will choke you later.”

“You can do it perfectly. Oh, the uncle must be worried because he falls so often?”

“Don’t even mention those pathetic things. Could it be that you are doing these things consciously?”

“… It can’t be.”

The s*xual favors scandal caused by Yuhan-Jun two years ago and the pistachio retrieval incident caused by Yuhan-Jun’s eldest daughter earlier this year tarnished Daehan Group’s image.

Ara teamed up with her older brother Yu Ji-tae and handed over Yoo Yu-joon’s past accident records to reporters to shake him even more.

When Byeolstagram became popular, he started right away and highlighted himself to the public in contrast to Yoo Jun-ne.

Of course, the story of Ara’s parents, Yoo Jae-joon and Han Seung-ah, was bound to become a hot topic.

“I even did an interview… Why are you bringing up your parents? Why did you bring up the story of the dead?”

“… That’s good. The story of the second son of a conglomerate who married for love. People love stories like that.”

“Does your father know that everything is clean? After all, if something explodes later, the blow will be multiplied.”

“At that time, my pathetic uncle will be my strong shield, right?”

“This is… “

“Whoops, okay. I won’t do interviews anymore.”

“…… “

To be swayed by a little girl like this now. King Yoochul sighed involuntarily.

So he decided to touch the weak point of the little girl in front of his eyes.

“What is he doing these days?”

“… Is that him?”

“If I were that guy, who would it be? That friend you live with.”

“You mean Sol? You must speak by name. And I saw Sol at the end of last year… “

She tried to pretend to be calm, but there was a slight shimmer in her voice.

What happened to him?

The old man dug in without missing it.

“Yes, he is all grown up now. He’s a good person, so wouldn’t it be strange if he had a girl or two?”

“… Well? I don’t talk about things like that well with Sol.”

“What do you think? Does it show that you have a woman?”

“I don’t know. I don’t think I noticed that… “

After arguing with Hansol over Kim Taeyeon, Ara became quite awkward with him.

It was difficult for her to remain calm about Han-sol’s story.

“… Come to think of it, Isa Cha’s daughter is the same age as you. How about being friendly? Ara, I heard you go to the school you go to.”

“Yes? Ah… yes. That would be fine.”

Ara was puzzled. What do you mean by that?

Cha is a man like King Yoo Cheol’s hands and feet.

If she’s his daughter, then of course she’s okay with him, but… Suddenly?

“And if it’s possible, Hansol should be able to match that too.”

“…… !!”

“Why is that? Is there something wrong with that?”

“Oh, no… Hey, well, I don’t know what you mean by that… “

“… It seems to me that you understand well?”

“Ah… !”

Ara’s hair turned white.

King Yoo Cheol is testing it. Even though he knows everything in his heart.

I’m asking you to prove it.

Ara is forcing her to cut off that heart with her own hands.

“I don’t know where the daughter-in-law saw him, but Han-sol knew him…. You seem to be quite interested? Hearing that Director Cha is like my grandson, he didn’t think it was bad.”

“Well, if that’s the case… What the kid knows… “

“Why? Are you unwilling?”

“… No.”

“Maybe it’s because my mind isn’t clear these days… I mean, I’m confused. Is my granddaughter really a wise human being like me, or is she imitating me?”

“…… “

“Go out and see. I hope to hear good things from you as soon as possible.”

He said he was tired and went into the room.

Ara couldn’t get up from her seat for a long time.
