My Daughter is a Music Genius - My Daughter is a Music Genius chapter 438

Chae-yoon was basically fond of animals.
any kind of animal.
Perhaps thanks to that, Chaeyoon had to ponder for a long time at the entrance of the zoo.
“Chae Yoon-ah, haven’t you decided yet?”
“… yes.”
Chae-yoon nodded at Seong-hyeon’s question.
Han Ah-reum was filming such a scene with a faint smile on her face.
The zoo where Chae Yoon-i and Jo Seong-hyeon came was a zoo called ‘Prinju’.
It’s not a very small zoo, but there are many reviews that it has a lot of facilities for children.
Despite the good reviews, there were not many people.
Chae-yoon was standing in front of the ‘Prinju Map’ and was thinking about it for several minutes.
I haven’t decided yet which animal I should go to see first.
The road is divided into two sections. The road runs centered on the birdhouse, so one can see the wild beasts first, and the other is the road where you can see small animals first.
The child sighed and sighed, eventually turning his head.
“Let’s go this way.”
“great.”
In the end, Chae-yoon chose the one with the beast coffin.
After thinking for a while, Chae-yoon made a choice and started walking with her eyes twinkling.
Jo Sung-hyun followed closely behind Chae-yoon.
“Dad! Look at that!”
The first thing I saw as soon as I entered the zoo was an otter.
I don’t know why the otter is in the wild beast, but first off, Chae-yoon liked it very much.
It was also an animal that Chaeyoon had seen several times, so it was familiar.
The otter looks at Chaeyoon with her characteristic clear eyes.
Chae-yoon waved her hand with a bright face.
The otter turns around, takes a stone from somewhere, plunges into the water, and swims towards the child.
“Looks like he’s a jerk.”
Chae-yoon read the notice written in front of her and said.
I read the explanation that an otter with attachment stones is an otter.
“hi!”
The boy’s voice was filled with excitement.
Jo Sung-hyun put his hand on Chae-yoon’s head.
The next thing I saw after the otter was a lynx.
“Uh-huh.”
Chae Yoon-i grabs Seong-hyeon’s side and makes a playful whistle.
It was meant to surprise, but it was just cute.
Jo Sung-hyun smiled and held the child.
“Isn’t something handsome?”
He said looking at the lynx, and Chaeyun tilted her head.
“It looks like a cat… Handsome?”
“Daddy has some kind of handsome feeling.”
It seemed that Chae-yoon did not understand Jo Sung-hyun’s emotions well.
For some reason, it looks cool, but in Chaeyoon’s eyes, it just looks like a cat.
“The shorter tail makes it look cuter.”
While saying that, Chae-yoon waved her hand at the lynx.
The lynx just looked at it like it was annoying.
“It doesn’t look fun.”
“what?”
“Sra… Sony.”
Chae-yoon moves her gaze towards the guide and says.
Jo Sung-hyun tilted his head.
It’s because I didn’t understand exactly what you meant by looking uninteresting.
“why?”
“I don’t even have a lot of toys… Wouldn’t it be fun to just live in the mountains?”
Chaeyoung asks.
Cho Sung-hyun scratched his cheek.
This question has always puzzled me.
Because I don’t know what to answer.
Cho Sung-hyun did not know which was the wise answer.
Jo Seong-hyeon was basically sympathetic to the child’s words.
Is the lynx inside us really confined or protected?
To be honest, both are included.
But anyway, it’s true that I feel a little sad when I see the lynx in us.
Then, is it correct to just reply, ‘Well, it’s not fun because I’m locked up’?
He thought for a moment, then opened his mouth.
“Isn’t it safe to be at the zoo?”
So that the child can look at it from a new perspective once in a while, let’s say it like that.
Chaeyoung looked at him, blinking her eyes.
“You look like a lynx bigger than your dad.”
“… … .”
At the right words, Seong-hyeon Jo was at a loss for words.
“Foot.”
Jang Hyun-ah’s laughter is heard from behind.
When he moved his gaze gently, Jang Hyun-ah looked embarrassed and covered her mouth with her hand.
I tried to be patient, but I couldn’t.
Hyeon-ah Jang sighs and coughs, then moves her gaze slightly to look elsewhere.
Jo Sung-hyun turned his head again and opened his mouth while looking at the lynx.
“It is, but… If a lynx just wanders around and gets hit by a moving car, it’s a big deal. People are hurt, and the lynx is hurt.”
“… That’s right. I don’t think the car will win.”
Chae-yoon nodded as if she had not thought of tea.
The child moaned and made a sound, then opened his mouth again and continued speaking.
“I wonder what the lynx thinks.”
At the end of Chaeyoon’s gaze as she spoke like that, a lynx yawning droopingly sat there.
Jo Sung-hyun opened his mouth, stroking Chae-yoon’s hair.
“Then how about Chae-yoon?”
Jo Seong-hyeon glanced at Chae-yoon and spoke up.
Chae-yoon looks at Jo Sung-hyun.
“What do you think about living with your father, Chae-yoon?”
“I’m happy.”
Chae-yoon responds immediately.
Jo Sung-hyun smiled softly.
If it had been in the past, would the child have been able to answer that she was happy without such hesitation?
Because there is a future that only he knows, Jo Seong-hyeon was able to bring out these words.
“It could be the same with the lynx over there. Of course not, but we don’t know. How does a lynx feel?”
“yes.”
“We just have to do the best we can. Taking an interest in animals.”
If she had paid more attention to the child rather than just being pessimistic about the current situation, she wouldn’t have been so unhappy with her past life.
Seong-Hyeon Cho said so.
Chaeyoon frowned in thought, then nodded her head.
“Dad is smart too.”
The child spoke, and Jo Seong-hyeon smirked.
It’s not a big deal, but somehow it felt good to hear a child say that.
“Now let’s go see the tiger.”
Saying that, I turned around, and Hyun-ah Jang and Ah-reum Han were looking at Jo Seong-hyeon with a slightly surprised look.
Jo Sung-hyun looked at them as if puzzled.
Jang Hyun-ah shook her head and opened her mouth.
“Senior is… .”
“yes.”
“Do you usually think like that?”
“… ? What do you think?”
“In a way, it’s just a question posed by a child. You gave your honest opinion right away.”
“I don’t normally think of opinions like this, but if I just think according to my values, I can come to a conclusion quickly, so I can answer right away.”
Jo Sung-hyun answered that and shrugged his shoulders.
“… People who clearly have their own values can be this cool.”
Jang Hyun-ah soon spoke in a playful voice.
Chaeyoung nodded her head.
“Dad is the best.”
The child said in a firm voice.
Jo Seong-hyeon patted Chae-yoon’s hair and turned around.
At that moment, he could find an old gentleman looking towards them.
Dressed in a suit that doesn’t fit well with the zoo, he was looking at Jo Sung-hyun and Chae-yoon with strange expressions.
‘… Did you see it on me tube?’
Thinking that they might have seen their me tube video, Jo Sung-hyun gently bowed his head to say hello and headed to the next room.
* * *
After looking around all the wild beasts, they went to the Oriental Pavilion, an exhibition hall with animals that can be seen in the East, and they could see the monkeys eating.
“I eat real bananas.”
Chae-yoon muttered as if curiously watching the monkeys eating the fruit.
The monkeys were looking at the spectators with curious eyes, one by one holding a fruit in their hand.
The expressions on their faces as to whether the spectators would give them something to eat.
Because there was a notice saying never to give food, none of the spectators gave anything.
“Dad.”
“yes?”
“Let’s eat too.”
I wonder if I was hungry, Chae-yoon said while holding Seong-hyun’s arm slightly.
At the child’s words, Jo Seong-hyeon looked at Jang Hyun-ah and Han Ah-reum, and they sent their eyes as if they were getting a little hungry.
“okay. let’s go eat.”
Separate tables and chairs were provided for dining.
Snacks were also sold nearby.
Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon took their seats in a suitable place.
When I was watching, it was okay, but when I got a seat in such a place where people gathered at once, my eyes were focused.
As Han Ah-reum is filming with her camera, it is inevitable.
These days, there are a lot of people doing Me Tube or personal broadcasting, so it was natural to draw attention even though filming is a common thing.
Perhaps the gaze was a little burdensome, Jang Hyun-ah looked around awkwardly and unpacked her lunch.
Kimbap and tofu sushi brought by Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yun, and fruits packed by Jang Hyun-ah are set.
“I will enjoy this food!”
Chaeyoon spoke in a bright voice and raised her chopsticks.
The child put one kimbap in one bite and murmured.
Jo Sung-hyeon poured juice in front of the child and ate tofu sushi.
Hyeon-ah Jang also started eating, but Ah-reum Han was still holding the camera.
Chaeyun swallowed the gimbap and this time extended her chopsticks with tofu sushi, but stopped when she realized that Han Ah-reum had not eaten anything yet.
The child seemed hesitant for a moment while looking at the kimbap and Han Ah-reum, then picked up a kimbap and handed it to Han Ah-reum.
“Even my sister eats it!”
When the child offered the kimbap, Han Ah-reum looked at Chae-yoon with a moved eye, and quickly took the kimbap and ate it.
“Thank you, Chae Yoon-ah.”
Ah-reum Han smiled and thanked the child.
Chaeyoung laughed hehehe.
The meal was finished quickly.
The child was in a hurry to see the other animals, so they all finished the meal quickly.
Han Ah-reum also put down the camera in the middle and ate together, so the lunch box was empty in no time.
After eating all the fruit, Chae-yoon got up, pounding her stomach.
“Dad, let’s go.”
Chae Yoon-yi grabs Seong-hyun’s hand and pulls it out.
“I have to start tidying up. If you just go, who will clean this up?”
“… Let’s get rid of it!”
At Jo Sung-hyeon’s calm words, Chae-yoon organizes the lunch box.
So, after tidying up.
They started moving again.
The next place to see is the bird museum.
The zoo tour has just begun.
