Regression Life of a Retired S-Class Mercenary - Regression Life of a Retired S-Class Mercenary chapter 148

Episode 148. Accident

A few days later.

Kang-soo was on the phone with Wu Fei, chairman of the Chiniu Group, in front of the town hall in a rural village.

Chinese language flowed over the receiver.

[I got help from you again.]

“Nothing. I just hope that the promise will be fulfilled.”

[I heard that Riyeon made such a promise without knowing your skills. It’s a pity, I’m sorry.”

At his murmur, Kang-soo’s forehead was slightly gripped by a tendon.

“no way… Did you know which bodyguards they were and assigned them to Ha Ri-yeon?”

[hehehehe, how could I have known that? I’m just begging people. I don’t know that well.]

It was a shameless voice.

Judging by the way he spoke, Kang-soo knew it was his intention.

“You knew I could recognize them.”

[…] You have good eyesight. However, I didn’t even know what Song Chen-hwa was trying to do with Li Yeon-yi.]

“I don’t know if it’s worth discussing further.”

[you-]

pop-

Kang Su did not listen to Chairman Wu Fei and hung up. The displeasure soared.

Then a voice came from behind.

“Mr. Kangsu?”

It was Kim Bo-ran. Of course, Kang-soo also knew she was approaching, so he hung up the phone.

“Yes, Mr. Boran. What’s wrong?”

“no. Are you not eating? Did you think you could speak Chinese?”

The enraged Kang-soo seemed to be approaching as his voice rose a little.

On the other hand, Kim Bo-ran had a surprised look at Kang-su’s Chinese language, which was too natural.

“I can do a little.”

“I thought you were very fluent? More than that, who did you talk to on the phone to make such a scary voice?”

“He’s just a little bit unlucky.”

When Kim Bo-ran heard that, he was surprised again.

“It’s the first time I’ve heard Kangsu say that.”

“I mean? Is that so?”

“It’s the first time I’ve heard someone speak ill of others.”

As I kept dealing with bad people these days, it seemed that my personality had deteriorated.

In particular, Chairman Wu Fei, whom I just talked to, is also the worst of the worst. However, it was just a bad thing that was useful from a corporate point of view.

“Well, I sometimes say that too.”

“How amazing. Oh, let’s go eat soon. Writer So-young’s parents prepared a lot for it.”

“You mean all the staff?”

“I heard that writer Soyoung also stopped it… To be honest, the elders don’t listen to that kind of thing.”

Kangsu smiled and looked around.

The current location was a small village in Bangsan-ri, Dado-myeon, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do.

It was to film ＜Away＞, PD Choi Yunho’s Tuun variety show.

The official title is… … .

＜Away: Quiet Barista＞

Yoo So-hyun and Hong Ah-jin opened a small cafe in the countryside and spent ten days doing business.

Of course, the education needed to make coffee and other beverages was also received before coming here.

And the two of them had already started recording.

“It is.”

It was the same with the elderly people I met occasionally in the mountains of Kangsu. I used to give herbs or distribute lunch boxes.

“Anyway, let’s go eat.”

I was led by Kim Bo-ran’s hand and entered the village hall. Most of the staff ate almost all of them before the recording started, so there were only a few left.

Inside, a middle-aged couple was tidying up in front of a side dish.

‘They are Chiyoung’s parents.’

Next to them, Gong So-young could be seen tidying up and talking.

Seeing Kang-soo approaching in front of her, her mother was startled.

“and-! Your face is really cocky. Is the handsome bachelor a talent?”

Kim Bo-ran laughed at the question.

“no. This person is my junior manager.”

“huh? manager? The face looks like an actor. How old are you?”

“… Thirty-three.”

Recently, as the year changed, I turned one year older.

At Kang-soo’s introduction, Gong Chi-young’s parents, Kong Hun-seok and Kim Jin-sook’s lips went up.

“He’s the same age as my older son. Gya is tall and handsome like you.”

“Mom, how handsome is that person? A complete muscle pig.”

At Gong So-young’s screaming sound, her mother, Kim Jin-sook, slapped her back with the palm of her hand.

“There’s nothing I can’t say to your brother.”

“What kind of oppa is a human who doesn’t return to his hometown for over ten years?”

“Do you have a lover more than that? Even though Yaga has a nasty temper, he’s kind.”

Gong Chi-young’s mother, Kim Jin-suk, introduced Gong So-young to Kang-su.

At the same time, Gong So-yeong’s mouth couldn’t help but scream.

“mom-!”

“Ahhh— your mother isn’t deaf?”

“What’s so embarrassing!”

“I am worried that my daughter will be able to get married! He said he was busy with broadcast work.”

“stop!”

In the midst of the chatter between the two, Kang-soo struggled to get rice and side dishes and sit down.

Kim Bo-ran also followed and hugged her on the other side, smiling continuously.

“Aren’t writer Gong So-yeong and mother interesting?”

“Iknow, right. I think you’re having fun.”

The rice was also delicious. It felt warm, like the cheap (?) food that my aunt Lee Ji-yoon gave me in the past.

“Ah—Come to think of it, that’s writer Gong So-young’s father over there. I think I saw it somewhere.”

“… … .”

Gong Chi-young’s father, Kong Hun-seok, had an aged look on his face.

At the same time, I guessed who Kim Bo-ran was thinking of. At that moment, I felt that Kangsu looked so similar that I almost laughed.

At this, Kim Bo-ran tilted his head.

“Do you know who it is?”

“… It seems like someone I saw at Yoo So-hyun’s fan meeting in the past.”

“ah! that’s right! ‘Frozen Sohyun’!”

For a moment, Kangsu seemed to hear something wrong.

“… what did you just say?”

“There is a person called Frozen Sohyun who works very hard in the fan club. You also came to a fan meeting last time at the small theater in Faru.”

Gangsoo also said that when he remembered that time.

But Kim Bo-ran also remembered exactly.

At the same time, I also found out what Gong Chi-young’s fan name was. Since they were cheering more passionately than anyone else in the front row of the small theater in Faru, there was little chance of being wrong.

“okay.”

The image of Gong Chi-young, who was extremely enthusiastic in the theater, flashed through my mind.

“Couldn’t it be that So-Hyeon Frozen and So-Young Gong’s father aren’t rich?”

It was because they were too similar to say no.

Kang also fully sympathized with that.

The conversation ended and the meal was over. In the kitchen, Gong Chi-young’s parents were busy cleaning up.

Gong So-yeong also went there because she couldn’t leave the set for a long time.

“I will help them and go to the set.”

“Will you? I wanted to help after taking a bite, but that’s why Sohyeon doesn’t stay by my side for a long time.”

“It’s okay, let’s go first.”

Kim Bo-ran left first.

In the meantime, Kangsu went to the kitchen with the dishes.

“I will help you.”

“Oh, it would be great if a handsome bachelor could help!”

Washed dishes were stacked on a large stainless steel tray. In addition, rice cookers and side dish containers for restaurants were neatly organized.

“A handsome bachelor is also neat.”

“no.”

“Can you carry the tray home?”

“I will.”

After tidying up, Kang-soo flashed the tray with the bowls piled on it.

“The bachelor has good strength. Be careful and follow me~”

Gong Chi-young’s father, Kong Hun-seok, held a rice cooker beside him.

So the three of them left the town hall and headed home.

The distance was not far. About ten minutes on foot… … .

A little later, a house with a red roof began to appear, and in front of it, an unfamiliar luxury SUV was standing behind it.

The car must have been recently pulled, and it looked like it was brand new.

“What?”

“That’s why someone parks a car in front of someone else’s wall like this.”

Gong Chi-young’s parents mumbled, glanced at the car, and tried to enter the house.

Then the passenger side door of the SUV opened. There was a person riding inside.

“… … .”

The person who got out of the car stood there without saying anything.

Clink— Kwajik—

At that moment, Kong Hun-seok and Kim Jin-sook dropped the tray and rice cooker they were holding on the ground.

“Chiyoung!”

“Gong Chi-young!”

It was because it was Gong Chi-yeong, the son of the two.

With a cry, the two ran to Gong Chi-young and hugged him.

“mother… father… … .”

“Yes, Chiyoung-ah. are you okay. Everything is fine.”

“… … .”

Tears flowed as Gong Chi-young stood hugged by Kim Jin-suk. His head hung down and his shoulders shook.

It was because my parents met after 14 years.

They hugged and cried for a long time.

Kang-soo watched such a scene from a little distance away, holding a tray with bowls. And as the atmosphere faded, Gong Chi-young’s eyes met.

“… Kangsu, why are you… … .”

It was only now that he realized that Kang-soo was in front of him.

“You said you were filming here.”

“ah-“

The parents who were holding Gong Chi-yeong were also surprised by the conversation between the two.

“Are you acquainted with that bachelor?”

“… I happen to be friends.”

“friend?”

I couldn’t help but be more surprised.

In the meantime, the driver’s seat of the car standing in front opened.

“Soo. They said it was filming, but it must have been today.”

It was Theresa.

The sudden appearance of a foreigner made Gong Chi-young’s parents more surprised than before.

“Who is that foreign lady?”

“ah… She is my girlfriend.”

“hello! mom! dad! My name is Theresa Lilly!”

“… … .”

The son and his girlfriend, who met after 14 years, were inevitably shocking.

Gong Hun-seok, who was so surprised by this, opened his mouth that had been bent shut.

“I— Nice to Michu!”

From the beginning, Teresa spoke Korean.

I was so nervous that I couldn’t hear those words.

“Go in at once. mother, father.”

“… OK.”

The two picked up what they had dropped on the floor.

Then, as his vision lowered, he saw the bandages wrapped around Gong Chi-yeong’s hands.

“What about your hand? Where are you hurt?”

“little bit. I’m almost healed now, but I’m just covering it up just in case.”

The three entered the house huddled together.

Meanwhile, Teresa sneaked up to the river.

“I asked to go after I got better, but he insisted on going, saying he wouldn’t be able to go any further by then.”

“I didn’t bring a wheelchair with me, though.”

“He said he would never be able to use a wheelchair because he wasn’t feeling well yet.”

Gong Chi-young also came to his hometown with his own determination.

In response, Kang-soo went inside with Teresa.

The house has a yard in the middle, and the room, kitchen, and living room are surrounded by a toenmaru in the shape of a ‘ㅁ’.

It was a typical country house.

Kong Hoon-seok and Kim Jin-suk put the tray and rice cooker aside and sat down with Gong Chi-young in the main room.

Kang-soo originally thought about going back to the filming set, but was curious about the current situation, so he went in together.

“okay… How have you been? Is it okay to be sick?”

“I was only slightly injured. mother? Is your father healthy too?”

“Me and your father are well.”

No more words were needed. They were busy holding each other’s hands and staring at each other’s faces.

Eyes, nose, mouth, ears… … .

It was as if I was tearing open each one, checking every nook and cranny to make sure everything was okay.

Teresa, who was watching this with Kangsu, tugged at her sleeve.

“Isn’t it really touching?”

“… That’s right.”

“It feels like watching a Korean drama… … .”

“… … .”
