흐린 눈 which means cloudy eyes in literal sense can be also be translated into prejudiced eyes.
“So, you’re leaving? That would be great for me.”
“The profit…”
“Don’t pick a fight because you won’t even find your money. If you do that, there’s nothing left for you.”
Chae Yoon-chan’s face turned red with humiliation and embarrassment when I coldly snapped back. I tried to deprive him of a finely folded bundle of blankets.
“This, since you said no, I’ll take it away.”
“Ah, no!”
Chae Yoon-chan flew like an arrow to protect the futon. As expected, he got angry when he was told to eat on his own, so I tried to take the initiative to take him out, but I misjudged the opponent.
“This, this can stay. It’s my fault…….”
Chae Yoon-chan asked me to leave him the blankets with disheveled blonde hair, blue eyes, and tears. It was quite different from when he shouted out the requirements earlier.
‘What a shame. I could’ve sent one away.’
Leaving behind the disappointment, I finished allocating the rooms.
“You can always pack up and go out instead of staying here for the whole time. Even if you need something, you have to be self-sufficient. Then, I’ll see you at work tomorrow morning.”
“Do we really have to settle everything?”
I answered Joo Tae-kang’s question firmly.
“You are not guests of my house, but rather uninvited guests. Now, go in and rest. I’ll rest, too.”
After confirming that the alphas were entering their respective rooms, I entered my cozy third floor room with general.
I threatened them to stay away from the third floor. If anyone tries to come up to the third floor where I stay, I will kick him out no matter what.
“Aigoo.”
“Woof! Woof woof!”
“General, I know. You’re having a hard time with them, too. Let’s hang in there. Okay?”
“
Whines
.”
When I lay face down on the bed, general came to my side and attached himself. It was warm.
“I think my nose is tingling.”
Since the alpha, dominant alpha, and extreme dominant alpha are evenly mixed in the house, no matter how much the gongs were at full level of pheromone control, it was inevitable to get sensitive.
I was worried that my temper would get dirty like a real Seong Chan-young a few times when I frowned at different pheromones.
The pheromone smell was not bad. However, if the scent of roses is too strong, it feels like I’m getting motion sickness because the good smells are mixed too much, just like the principle that it feels like a poop smell.
‘Like a rat in a trap.’
To paraphrase it, it was like a mouse trying to survive among cats with bells. Even among these spoiled cats, there was Baek Do-jun, who knew that I, that is, Seong Chan-young, was a recessive omega.
‘Baek Do-jun won’t tell others’ secrets recklessly, but…….’
It was true that I was anxious. If Baek Do-jun, who couldn’t bear my persecution like Chae Yoon-chan, even divulged the secret, I was done for that day.
I might immediately
become a guest of honor

and be dragged away by the alphas. That can never happen. “If I knew this would happen, I should have warned or threatened Baek Do-jun in advance.”
Judging by how quiet he was, it seemed safe for the time being.
“General, if Baek Do-jun tries to do something stupid, you have to bite his mouth. Got it?”
“Woof!”
Hugging my warm general, all the worries in the world flew away. The agony grew distant, and the eyelids closed.
“But who was the man who buried me with alpha pheromones?”
There was room for interpretation that buried pheromones in beta, which did not smell anything, had a sexual orientation that only beta liked.
But the reason why I was reluctant to believe it was because Moon Kyung-sik had a smile on his face for a very short time when I fell and was in pain from the fall.
‘….Why did you laugh at me when I fell down?’
Is Moon Kyung-sik really a filial grandson who came to take care of his grandfather suffering from dementia? If not, is he the one who came after Seong Chan-young?
Whatever it is, I hope he doesn’t bother me.
If anyone who invades my precious nest and threatens general and me appears, I will destroy anyone.

The moon sets and tomorrow’s sun rises. The alarm set for 7 a.m. rang loudly to wake me up.
[Get up! Get up!]
“Uh. It’s really hard to get up.”
I could only get out of bed after seeing general waving his tail for food, feeling as if all the mental fatigue had accumulated physically as well.
“Woof!”
“Yes, yes. Yes. I’ll feed you.”
I gave General food and water from his favorite brand. I kept yawning as I went down.
“So sleepy.”
Today, I told Ajumma not to come to make breakfast, so I had to prepare it by myself. She was blocked in advance because I was afraid that the alphas would ask for food if they saw Ajumma.
“……that’s sanjeok.”
However, three pieces of
sanjeok

Sanjeok (산적) is made by placing seasoned slices of beef with vegetables on a skewer and grilling them. All the ingredients are sliced into 5–6 cm long pieces. Unlike other jeok dishes, sanjeok is not dredged with flour or egg-washed before being grilled.
that I had never seen were stored in a plastic container in the refrigerator. I was going to eat moderately roughly, but when I saw it, I thought the lady had left it. But it wasn’t the case.
“Huh? A note?”
There was a note on the top of the container that was torn a little and attached with scotch tape.
「Eat and cheer up. Don’t get sick.」
“……?”
I calmly remembered who was the best cook among the guys who had served me.
“Must be Baek Do-jun.”
I didn’t know this guy would cook well enough to make holiday food.
“This… will probably last longer than I thought.”
I hope this unfortunate premonition is wrong. May the gongs be human beings who don’t know the word cooperation. Please.
Do we think it’s Baek Do-jun? There’s a high possibility but there could be plot twists…👀--------------------------------------------------------------Oh, and sorry about making this chapter costs more than usual. This chapter was unexpectedly long so I had to consider it. I hope you don't hate me for it. 😥
