Assistant Manager Kim Hates Idols - Chapter 138



Only Noblemtl

| Episode 138. Man’s Revenge (4)

When I opened my eyes, I saw an unfamiliar ceiling.

This is a scene from a web novel I saw a while ago.

If things continue like this, they will all debut as idols.

… … Wait, isn’t this my story?

I don’t know how long I was unconscious.

My last memory was a woman passing by screaming at me when she saw me covered in blood.

For some reason, the events of the Hanpyeong Industry days remained in my mind. I guess I had a dream.

But… …what should I do now?

Should I call a nurse? I’m not sick enough to call anyone.

Thanks to the system, I didn’t feel any pain. Rather, it was comfortable to lie down and do nothing for the first time in a long time.

I was such a simple citizen who loved my bed. How did my life become so twisted?

I turned my head here and there and got a rough idea of ​​the situation.

Judging by the IV in my wrist and the fall warning posted on my nightstand, it seemed like any urgent surgery or treatment was over. If it was really an emergency, everyone would have gathered at my bedside.

‘I’ve been hospitalized all my life.’

It’s strange. The company was more like Hanpyeong Industry, but I felt more threatened to die at UA.

There’s more to the problem than that.

Here… … it looks like a single room.

How much does a single room cost? This is my first time being hospitalized, so I’m at a loss. I’ve only heard that it’s incredibly expensive, so I’m sweating profusely on my back.

Will the company pay for it? I don’t even have insurance in this life. Will hospitalization due to injury be covered by insurance?

‘You crazy bastard… … I’ll pay for all the treatment.’

I ground my teeth as I thought about the number of people. You should know that there is no way to reach an agreement unless it is a considerable amount of money. I will put your life on the line with both civil and criminal charges.

While I was feeling indignant, I heard the door opening at the foot of the stairs. Soon after, someone approached.

“Manager?”

“Ewol-ah! Are you awake? Nurse, the patient here is awake!”

And then, all of a sudden, the surroundings became noisy. I just responded to the noise, but my soul disappeared.

Only after hearing a simple explanation did my hospital room become peaceful again.

“The surgery went well. You, Inma, were really close to being in trouble.”

“Is that so?”

“Of course! Do you know how badly it hurt? … … No, I said something rude to the kid who just woke up. I’m sorry.”

It seems like things got worse because the injured area was his head. What a piece of trash.

“Are you really not hurt? You had a lot of stitches?”

“I guess it’s thanks to the painkillers. I feel really fine now.”

Even after hearing what I said, the manager didn’t seem at all reassured.

But you can’t pretend to be sick on purpose, right? There’s no point in doing that.

When I smiled to show that I was okay, the manager sighed.

“Oh, did the kids get home okay?”

I told them to wait in the practice room because I thought the company would foolishly let them go home when the police or ambulance came.

“Kids? They’re sitting outside right now.”

“yes?”

Surprisingly, they’re here or something.

“Did I sleep that long? Or maybe it was a few days that passed.”

“No, no! The kids said they were worried about you.”

Even so, there was a commotion, so they told me to put the kids in their dorm.

“Would you like to sleep a little longer? If it’s okay with you, Iwol, tell the kids to come in for a bit.”

“yes yes.”

I quickly accepted, thinking it would be better to bring the idol inside rather than leaving him in the hospital hallway.

As soon as the manager left, the guys’ footsteps could be heard as if they had been waiting for it.

The faces of the guys who came straight towards me were… … .

“brother!”

“Brother, are you okay?”

… … Half of it was a mess.

“Did you guys cry?”

“Hyung, huh? What did the teacher say? Is it okay now?”

Lee Cheong-hyeon shed tears.

Even when I read the Rolling Papers written for the 5th anniversary of Jakon, I didn’t cry this much.

“The surgery went well, so why are you crying? I’m fine.”

At my words, Lee Cheong-hyeon’s hands trembled and he wiped away his tears.

“As long as the surgery goes well, everything will be fine… … .”

Lee Cheong-hyeon’s voice trembled.

“I can see that the beak is intact.”

Choi Je-ho looked down at me with a pitiful gaze.

Yeah f*ck, the system is doped and it’s fine. Why.

“No… …Why are you so angry?”

“Do I have to ask to find out?”

“Stop it, bro.”

Choi Je-ho frowned. Kang Ki-yeon tried to stop him, but Choi Je-ho did not give in.

“You, don’t you know how you got here? Why are you so calm when your head is broken?”

“Did I know it would turn out like this?”

“You almost died and now you say something like that?”

“You’re not dead. Then it’s okay.”

And it’s not peaceful either. If this is what happened, I would be the first one to grab the system by the collar.

“Anyway, I’m fine, so everyone hurry up and go back to the dorm. Don’t go out without the manager for a while.”

“Yeah, I hope you’re okay, you little b*tch.”

The guy who had been glaring at me got angry and stormed out of the hospital room.

“I’ll go out for a bit too.”

“Uh uh… … .”

Kang Ki-yeon chased after Choi Je-ho.

“Why is he like that? Was he like that outside the hospital room too?”

I’ve done everything I can to stop the controversy over my character. It’s not like you couldn’t stand it and started a fight while I was unconscious, right?

“Shall I be honest with you?”

“… … .”

Jeong Seong-bin’s words left me speechless for a moment. It felt like I was staring at Pandora’s box.

“Brother Jeho, 30 minutes ago, Yoo Han-soo, I was screaming in the car that I was going to kill you.”

Lee Cheong-hyeon said, grumbling.

I told you not to get excited in front of the kids, just like that.

Wait a minute. So Kang Ki-yeon just went to stop him?

“Choi Je-ho, I’ll definitely… … .”

“Brother! Don’t get up!”

“You can’t get up, hyung!”

I almost jumped out of bed for a moment. Lee Cheong-hyeon and Jeong Seong-bin were startled and stopped me from jumping out of bed.

The pain was clearly subsiding, but my back was still pulling. I laid back down on the bed, holding the back of my neck.

“Why does he do such mean things to me? It’s not the injury that’s the problem, he’s dying from the disease.”

“Don’t say that.”

Park Joo-woo’s voice was heard behind Lee Cheong-hyeon and Jeong Seong-bin.

I didn’t notice it because it was covered, but Park Joo-woo was in terrible shape. There were still tear stains on Park Joo-woo’s cheeks.

“I really thought you were going to die… … .”

Park Joo-woo spoke with difficulty and in small pauses. Then he shed tears as big as jade beads.

“……sorry.”

I apologized briefly, but Park Joo-woo’s tears did not stop.

Park Joo-woo, who had been sobbing silently for a long time, said.

“I’m sorry, I said I wanted a drink… … .”

Tears fell onto the blanket.

It’s nothing special, and it’s not Park Joo-woo’s fault that things turned out this way.

My heart sank. I felt uneasy.

“It wasn’t your fault, so why are you apologizing for something like that?”

At my words, Park Joo-woo wiped away his tears with his sleeve.

‘… … You must be really surprised.’

When I first got hit, all I could think about was taking the weapon away.

What about these guys who aren’t even twenty years old? I patted the sniffling guy on the shoulder a few times.

“Are you sure you’re okay? I told you it might hurt a lot when the anesthesia wears off.”

Jeong Seong-bin said with a worried expression.

“I’m really okay. I guess the anesthesia hasn’t worn off yet.”

I wanted to chase after Choi Je-ho, but appeasing these guys took priority.

Look at Lee Cheong-hyeon’s face. If he had cried a lot, it would have been called ‘Tearful Statue – Made in 20XX’, but now he has completely collapsed.

Looking closely, Jeong Seong-bin’s eyes were also red. Since both of them were crying, it seemed like Kang Ki-yeon had taken charge of Choi Je-ho. My heart was heavy because it seemed like he had placed a heavy burden on the youngest.

“Seongbin, can you bring Choi Jeho and Giyeon with you? I’m worried that Giyeon might have a hard time.”

“……all right.”

First, I decided to call in Kang Ki-yeon, who was struggling alone.

And then he spoke to Park Joo-woo and Lee Cheong-hyeon, who were left alone.

“When you get to the dorms, everyone take one Cheongsimhwan. I bought some to drink before. Do you know where the first aid kit is?”

“Aren’t you the one who needs to take Cheongsimhwan the most right now?”

“Don’t make me say the same thing again when I’m not feeling well.”

There was more to this than just what I wanted to say.

I smiled awkwardly as I looked at the faces of the guys who were left in a mess from the rough scrubbing.

“I’m sorry for worrying you.”

“… … .”

Since I wasn’t sick right now, I treated all of these guys’ concerns as overprotectiveness. It was rude to the guys who came to me out of concern for me.

I sincerely apologize for this.

“You can trust me when I say I’m okay, it’s not a lie. Don’t you think I look like usual just by looking at what I’m saying?”

“That’s because you can’t see your face… … .”

Park Joo-woo criticized.

But it really doesn’t hurt at all. It’s so bad that you guys are worried like this. I can’t explain it.

“I’m sorry I asked you if you were surprised. You must have been surprised anyway, but my thinking was short-sighted.”

“What are you talking about? Even if we were surprised, would we be as surprised as you were?”

Even though he was grumbling, Lee Cheong-hyeon gradually stopped crying.

“I apologize to my hyungs and Kang-Kyun for speaking thoughtlessly. Don’t bother Je-Ho hyung for no reason. What kind of situation is it to tell someone who is worried that it’s okay because he’s not dead?”

“Choi Je-ho needs to have a private interview. Why would he get angry in front of his younger siblings… .”

“Brother Jeho, you haven’t been like that lately. You’re just saying that because you’re worried.”

“Cheong-hyeon, whose side are you on?”

“Today is Jeho’s day, you bastard.”

Lee Cheong-hyeon poured out fierce criticism. Park Joo-woo showed no sign of trying to stop him.

After the two guys’ tear ducts were shut, Jeong Seong-bin returned with the Sapodungi.

I also offered the same apology to the three people. Jeong Seong-bin accepted my apology with a slightly relieved expression on his face, and Kang Gi-yeon accepted it with a look of displeasure but helplessness on her face.

With Choi Je-ho… … .

“… … .”

“… … .”

“I’m sorry I spoke so thoughtlessly, but you shouldn’t swear or get angry in front of the kids either.”

“Jeong Seong-bin, can I go to the dorm first?”

… … Although it wasn’t smooth sailing, we somehow managed to reconcile.

The story about the perpetrator, Yoo Han-soo, could be heard after this.
