The Heavenly Demon Gives a Massage - The Heavenly Demon Gives a Massage chapter 186

“by the way… From what I’ve heard, it’s a place that’s difficult to make reservations in the first place, but I heard that Marchesi made a separate request and made time for it.”

After that, Arheen, who had been shaking his limbs a couple of times as if he was curious, sat down on the bed as if he had suddenly remembered it and asked Kang Tae-han insinuatingly.

“Yes. you’re right.”

Kang Tae-han answered that question honestly. It seemed that there was no need to speak back or be humble.

“I owed Mr. Marchesi one last time. Moreover, it seems to be quite important to Marchesi, so I decided to make some accommodations.”

“… Haha, that’s right.”

At Kang Tae-han’s words, Archin nodded slowly.

In fact, before coming here, Marchesi said as if he was condescending as a joke, ‘Originally, it’s a difficult place to come to, but it’s a time I got separately as an acquaintance’s chance.’

At that time, I honestly felt the thought of ‘do I have to go that far’ rather than being grateful… … .

Now that I have received a massage and experienced the effects to the fullest, I am just grateful. To Marchesi who prepared this kind of place, and to the masseuse teacher who gave me time.

“really… Indebted to you. You are my benefactor.”

Arheen spoke softly, as if muttering, with a voice full of emotion. The joy of regaining physical freedom was to the point where it was not enough to express it.

“Haha, I just did my job as a masseuse. Until you say grandiose benefactor… … .”

“No, you don’t have to be so humble.”

So is it like that?

Arhin shook his head at Kang Tae-han’s answer, and soon sat down in an angular posture like a spirited soldier.

“I, Archin, I am not such a poor man as to be unable to repay a benefactor. Is there anything you need, or is there anything I can do to help?”

And a serious voice that leads to that state.

At those words, Kang Tae-han assumed a thoughtful look.

Of course, Kang Tae-han didn’t need anything that he had to ask someone for. At least in the current situation, it was. If that was the case, I would have spoken to Marchesi first.

However, there were some things I had in mind.

In a way, it’s the time I’ve been waiting for.

“Um… Then it’s not my job.”

Although he had an answer in mind, Kang Tae-han, who pretended to be lost in thought for a while, opened his mouth as if he had just thought of it.

“I heard that you are quite influential in the Indian film industry, is that correct?”

“What would you hide? I’m not that great, but I’m not in a position to be ignored among the industry.”

Archin answered by patting his chest lightly. Kang Tae-han continued the story with a light smile.

“Actually, among the people I know, there are people who work in the film industry. However, they say they are having trouble with overseas filming this time.”

“Hmm, that means… It seems that the overseas filming location was India, right?”

“you’re right. Well, since I’m not in the industry, I don’t know the details… … .”

Kang Tae-han nodded lightly and sat down on a small chair in front of the table. And a picture of a certain business card was displayed on the smartphone screen.

“This is the business card of your filming team, and I would appreciate it if you could meet me and help me.”

Archin received Kang Tae-han’s smartphone and looked at his business card for a while. The business card was in English, probably made separately for overseas activities.

After a while, Arhin, who was looking at his business card, put his smartphone down on the table and asked in a low voice.

“If you do, will it help you?”

“It’s not my job, but I’d be happy if you did. It’s a problem with someone dear to me.”

At Kang Tae-han’s words, Arhin slowly nodded while keeping his mouth shut. The silence didn’t last that long.

“Then, I will gladly do so.”

Archin replied with a warm smile.

When a person receives help, he or she must reciprocate. That is duty, and that is loyalty. And to Archin, it was enough to be happy that he had the opportunity to keep his duty.

“… But, do you know anything more about it?”

However, the story was too short anyway.

Of course, you can meet and hear the details, but wouldn’t there be a difference between going in knowing what’s going on and going in without knowing it at all?

“Ugh. Like I said earlier, it’s all I’ve heard, but… Still, let me tell you more.”

From Kang Tae-han’s point of view, there is no need to spare words to someone who says he will help. He explained everything based on what he had heard from Seah Yoo.

How did the story go on like that?

“… Hee hee, that means there are still people like that.”

Arhin, who was listening to Kang Tae-han, burst into laughter and said. There was a hint of anger in his voice.

Arheen has been involved in the Indian film industry for a long time. As a result, I know most of the customs and bad habits in the industry. From the things of the past that are now gone, to the things that remain today.

So, there was a part that I naturally pointed out. To the point where you can see the situation without even looking at it.

“I thought it was almost gone these days… … .”

In the case of being territorial due to emotional problems between related parties, or sluggishly taking time for the purpose of obtaining additional money.

There are two main points to note.

However, it would be difficult to have emotional issues with an overseas filming team that has no relationship with Eun-Won, so it was highly likely that it was the latter. And these guys were the kind of guys Arheen hated the most.

It’s because they are the ones who threaten the other person’s weak parts with the position that they have nothing to regret.

After all, these guys are also in the industry, and as such, they know how tight the filming schedule is, and how devastating it can be to delay a day or two.

That’s why, while sabotaging the schedule with various excuses, he puts the words ‘I think it will be solved if you give me a little more money’ with a shameless face.

This is not possible in the vicinity of Mumbai, where the film industry infrastructure is concentrated, but these are chronic elements that are often present in filming locations on the outskirts.

However, these days, I thought it had completely disappeared as information exchange between vendors became more active… It seems that the outside teams were still doing business that way.

“For this, maybe I should be grateful.”

Arhin nodded once, as if he understood the situation roughly. Then he pointed to his chest and let out a smirk.

“Actually, I am the president of a small association.”

Arhin Durr, once a national actor in India and now one of the famous directors. One of his other titles is Chairman for the Promotion of Healthy Development of the Indian Film Industry.

As an association with a history of about 20 years, its main task is to find and block or prevent unfair customs or unfair contracts in the industry.

However, these days, there is nothing to do, so it has practically become an honorary position… It seemed like I was going to be doing some work for a long time.

“I will make sure to meet and talk with this person. Apparently, even if I wasn’t asked in the first place, it seems like something I’d have to do.”

“Is that so.”

Kang Tae-han smiled at Arhin’s words.

To be honest, I had some doubts about whether even an industry official could be involved in this part… It seemed that things came together quite by accident.

Meanwhile, at a pension in Daejeon at that time.

Seonghyun Choi was grilling a barbecue for a while.

Chiyiyi profit… … .

When the meat was placed on the hot plate, the sound of the meat being fried resonated loudly around and began to stimulate the appetite.

“Isn’t it hot when you’re there?”

“uh… I’m not sure. What is that, the wind, the wind continues to blow coolly.”

Two people sitting at a table on the pension terrace.

Jeong Ga-in carefully asked if Seonghyeon Choi, who was right in front of the charcoal fire, was a little worried about the meat, but Seonghyeon Choi shook his head as if nothing was wrong.

In fact, it wasn’t a bluff, it was a situation where I really didn’t know.

This was the terrace attached to the pension room, but it wasn’t just a terrace, it was a terrace in Jeong Ga-in’s room.

Even if it’s temporary, it’s a woman’s personal space anyway!

It was not so simple for two people, a man and a woman, to be there together. It could be something more than just the two of you together.

‘Ha, Mr. What are you so nervous about? … .’

Seonghyun Choi scratched his head lightly as he recalled his memories.

After suddenly bumping into Jeong Ga-in as soon as he came out of the hot spring, Seong-hyun Choi went for a walk with her as promised.

And when you go for a walk, naturally, there will be a story about the next schedule. Of course, we also talked about dinner, and since we took a walk together, it naturally flowed in the direction of having a meal together.

That’s how we go to the mart together, shop together, and light a charcoal fire together… And the situation that led to this is now.

‘ha… Was I so shy?’

To be honest, there is no need to be so nervous. Why don’t we just grill some meat together?

Of course, it is said that it is between a man and a woman, but at least it is Choi Seong-hyun, who has never been nervous about such things in his life. It’s not like this has happened once or twice.

However, I feel particularly nervous and embarrassed today. It is Choi Seong-hyun who feels strange even when he thinks about every single action.

Maybe it’s because I took a break from dating for a while?

I don’t think I’ve ever been this nervous before, even in my first relationship, but it was a really strange feeling.

“Five… The grill pattern came in properly.”

Meanwhile, Ga-in Jeong, who was sitting outside, came to the fire and sat across from Seong-hyun Choi. Choi Seong-hyun opened his mouth with a shy expression at her words as he looked at the meat and burst into admiration.

“Iknow, right. It came out perfectly in a diamond shape.”

“Seonghyun is good at grilling meat.”

“haha… Well, I’m not the type of person who gets lost anywhere, but there’s a person around me who cooks really well.”

“Five… How well do you want it to cook?”

“What should I say, it feels like the meat grade goes up one more when that friend grills it? Pork is good, but beef is also amazing.”

Still, the conversation came and went relatively naturally.

Thanks to this, Seonghyeon Choi, who had been staring at the fire plate like a mangbuseok, lightly adjusted his posture and looked at Ga-in Jeong who sat across from him.

“Heh heh. Oh, I feel so good today.”

At that time, Ga-in Jeong was laughing a little while looking at the distant mountains. In an instant, Seonghyeon Choi stared at her profile without realizing it.

“Isn’t it?”

“… Yes? uh, what?”

“Today’s weather.”

“Ahhh! Iknow, right!”

Choi Seong-hyeon nodded his head then, belatedly, averting his gaze and looking around.

An awkward reaction no matter who sees it. On the other hand, going through a series of processes, Choi Seong-hyun suddenly came to guess why he was doing this.

‘… They seem to like it a lot.’

His heart is drawn to Jeong Ga-in.

Originally, I was planning to approach it a little cautiously because I am a national representative, and it is difficult to meet often in terms of distance and situation… … .

As you can see, it seems difficult to do so.

At the excitement in his heart he felt for the first time, Choi Seong-hyun burst out laughing without realizing it.

next day.

Ding-dong.

Kang Tae-han, who was sitting at home on a day off, opened the front door to the sound of a bell ringing in the morning.

“Hehe, I’m here, Mr. Taehan.”

As soon as the door opens, what you see is Yoo Se-ah’s face with a bright smile. She held the mart shopping bags in both hands to shoulder height and held them out to Kang Tae-han.

“What else did you buy?”

“I told you I was making lunch today.”

“Are there any left over vegetables I bought last time?”

“I thought of all of them and bought them.”

Yoo Se-ah hands over the shopping bag and immediately starts taking off her shoes. In the meantime, Kang Tae-han glanced at the contents inside the shopping bag.

“… Hmm.”

Apparently, it’s enough to make dinner, not lunch.

Willingness to stay here for a long time. Kang Tae-han, who grasped her thoughts, smirked and drooled, then shrugged lightly and walked towards the kitchen.

“By the way, when will the filming resume?”

“Shooting?”

Yoo Se-ah took off her shoes and entered the house and hung her coat on a hanger. Moving in a way she was used to, she tilted her head at Kang Tae-han’s words and asked again.

“What are you filming?”

“Why, there is an overseas filming that has been delayed, isn’t it?”

“ah… That’s it.”

Yoo Se-ah, who had come to Kang Tae-han’s side, answered in a light voice as she arranged the items in the shopping bag one by one.

“What is the same? There is no schedule, and there is no feeling that it will be resolved. I’m fine… The staff seemed to be having a hard time.”

“Hmm. Still, I think there will be good news soon.”

“It would be nice if that were the case… It’s okay.”

She placed a fairly heavy load on the shelf and lightly patted her hands.

“I don’t see any sign of that. I guess I’ll have to get some help from them, but in many ways… Well?”

At that time, Yoo Se-ah’s smartphone rang.

A sound you don’t normally hear. It was a ringtone set only for the phones of people I meet on a daily basis.

“Can I talk to you for a moment?”

“Yes.”

Kang Tae-han nodded at Yoo Se-ah’s words, and Yoo Se-ah walked toward the living room and brought the smartphone to her ear.

The call didn’t take long.

Around the time Kang Tae-han was about to organize the remaining items.

“… Is it like what Taehan said?”

After finishing the call, Yoo Se-ah walked towards the kitchen again and said in a curious voice.

“What?”

“The overseas shooting I was talking about earlier. Taehan said he thought there would be good news.”

At Yoo Se-ah’s words, Kang Tae-han nodded.

He had already guessed what the conversation was about, but Kang Tae-han had a puzzled expression on his face as if he was pretending to be pretentious.

“It seems that everything has been resolved this time. The shooting schedule will be rescheduled soon, so the manager says not to make appointments this week or next week.”

Although she pretended to be okay, Seah Yoo smiled brightly as if she was worried a lot. and.

“I’m so glad.”

Seeing her like that, Kang Tae-han just smiled with a happy expression without showing anything special.
