You Are Defended - Chapter 537

Episode 537

“… … .”

Kim Chan-young became anxious when he didn’t get an immediate answer from Ko Sang-jun.

It was Cha Ju-han’s idea to bring up the subject like this.

Clearly, Ko Sang-jun must have created secret spaces in his own home or other buildings, in addition to the Okashima Hospital and Ribbon Medical Center, and there must have been only one person who designed those buildings.

There is no reason to spread your weaknesses over several people.

He said that if you know where the architect is, the next step will be a little easier.

Kim Chan-young asked if Wooshin Material’s internal personnel had been mobilized, but Cha Ju-han firmly stated that this would not be the case.

If Wooshin Mulsan uses its internal personnel, rumors will eventually spread throughout the company, and there is no way that Ko Sang-jun would not know this.

So, I did as Cha Ju-han said… … .

I am not sure whether Ko Sang-jun will tell me or whether he will arouse my suspicions.

“Finding an architect who can do that is a task, and even if someone does show up, I doubt they will really keep it a secret. My father will make sure that doesn’t happen, but really, someday… … I think that even in the distant future, there may come a day when it is revealed how I was born and whose child I am. If I become a target, it means that my father may be attacked at any time. When I think about my father’s traces being revealed through me, like the paper company he promised to give me this time, my eyes get dizzy.”

Kim Chan-young decided not to give Ko Sang-jun time to think.

He kept pouring out words, inputting new information values ​​into his head.

Of course, I was extremely careful about my tone and voice so as not to give the impression that I was in a hurry and my tongue was getting long.

“If something goes wrong, I can cut it off at my own risk… … So I think I need to keep Wooshin’s name out of the question. Of course, I need to save myself at the same time. In that sense, I can’t trust banks and private vaults. They’re places that have to be opened when a search warrant is issued. But if there’s a space in my house that no one knows about, it’s a different story. Then, even if the police search my house, I can’t go home empty-handed.”

“You’re thinking pretty far ahead.”

“I know that the paper company established in the British Virgin Islands is a big weakness of your father. I tried to beg him to let me get involved, but I’m sure he didn’t just let me get involved. I have to be careful about it, and I have to take responsibility for it.”

Go Sang-jun’s face, which had been frozen hard, began to soften little by little.

Kim Chan-young couldn’t figure out what was bothering Ko Sang-jun and why his expression was so hard.

I just thought that maybe he had a vague idea that he knew something.

Still, I bet you don’t realize that I know about Okayama Hospital and Ribbon Medical Center.

Even if he is a noble man.

“And actually, I did think that maybe my father had installed something like this at his parents’ house.”

Kim Chan-young decided to delve a little deeper.

Maybe I didn’t have to say that.

However, he felt that his intention was to become ‘the child who most resembles me’ to Ko Sang-jun, and that this worked quite effectively.

Maybe it will help Ko Sang-jun accept Kim Chan-young on a deeper level.

“Why did you think that?”

“I’m just thinking this, but I think my father would have considered this and that. Of course, I could use a space under someone else’s name, but I think I’d want to keep it in my house. There’s the issue of accessibility. If I leave it somewhere else and they take pictures of me going back and forth, if things go badly, that place can’t avoid being searched and seized.”

Go Sang-jun nodded slowly.

It was unclear whether he was admitting to Kim Chan-young that he too had created a secret place in the same way, or whether he was saying that Kim Chan-young had a point.

“I understand why you need it. I know someone who can do what you want. I’ll give your contact information to the architect. He’ll contact you shortly.”

In the end, Ko Sang-jun did not express his deepest thoughts.

That means I can’t tell Kim Chan-young everything yet, but it doesn’t really matter.

I didn’t think it would happen overnight anyway, and I ended up reaping the unexpected benefit of being adopted into the Go family.

Moreover, the first goal was to be introduced to an architect who does Ko Sang-jun’s work.

This was also successful, so I am quite satisfied.

“I’m glad you understand what it means for me to hand over a Virgin Islands paper company to you.”

Ko Sang-jun said with a faint smile.

“I wonder if I begged you to join me without being prepared for this.”

When Kim Chan-young answered with a wink, Go Sang-jun also laughed.

But on the other hand, I started to worry that maybe this incident had made Ko Sang-jun suspicious.

Anyway, once the special investigation begins, it will be the end for Ko Sang-jun as well.

Although he had not yet told Cha Ju-han that he had made up his mind, Kim Chan-young was determined to commit suicide in a heroic manner.

As Ko Sang-jun said, isn’t it true that the gaze of the saints is something that can be endured only for a short while?

If, in exchange for receiving that gaze, Ko Sang-jun’s sentence is extended by just one day, Kim Chan-young would want nothing more.

Just hold on until then.

“Wow, what is this?”

“Discharge celebration cake.”

The day Kang Min-jae was discharged from Myongdae Hospital, we gathered at a nearby restaurant.

It was because of Kang Min-jae’s strong will to shoot the discharge chin.

It’s common for patients to receive a gift upon discharge, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone give me a discharge gift.

So I thought it was over the top that they gathered like this, but Choi Jong-hyun and Jo Bong-jun were not at all behind him in their over-the-top behavior.

“No, what kind of cake is it?”

I’m not sure when they started calling the Choco Pie tower a cake, but they put a candle on the very top and lit it.

Kang Min-jae blew out the candle with a very happy expression.

“I originally wanted to buy a cake, but as you know, I don’t have any money because I returned my card to Cha Byun-han these days. Bong Joon-i is also saving money because he’s spending it on preparing for the broadcast.”

“Hey, don’t be ridiculous. I’ve tied up everything in stocks, so I can barely afford living expenses. I just received dividends, and now I only have 100,000 won left. Money is leaking out.”

Normally, you would have thought Cho Bong-jun was joking, but unfortunately, what he said was true.

In order to break away from the image of a traditional internet broadcaster, we decided to move our broadcasting platform, and at the same time, we also had to take care of our studio.

They said that the interior design will be done only in the parts that are visible to the camera, so that viewers will recognize it as a different show if it is visually different.

So naturally, I started to think about how much I should expose to the camera.

In the past, usually two people would host a show, and even if Kang Min-jae and I were to appear, only about three or four people would appear, so there was no need for a large space.

But since the content to be covered on the show is serious and extensive, there is no way to know when and which guests will be invited.

For these various reasons, the interior construction project that was originally intended to be a small project ended up being quite large.

“If you’re that short on funds, wouldn’t it be better to just keep using your lawyer’s card?”

Oh, the manager asked.

But Choi Jong-hyun and Jo Bong-jun answered very firmly.

“We’re going to do it with our own money to the extent possible. Of course, I have nothing to say since most of it was done with Cha’s money, but this project isn’t just Cha’s. It feels like we’re just taking advantage of it, so that’s a bit much.”

At first, I could see that Choi Jong-hyun was determined not to spend my money when he refused to renew his card after its expiration date, but they were more stubborn than I thought.

I feel like everyone feels a great sense of responsibility for this, which is both gratifying and burdensome.

I’m trying my best to make sure things don’t go wrong, but there’s nothing 100% in this world.

I would feel better if only I were the one who suffered when things went wrong.

Even if it is not an important area like life or career, it is the same even if you only look at financial loss.

But if this happens, wouldn’t everyone suffer losses together?

Naturally, my mind becomes complicated.

Kim Mi-ja, Tae-sik, and Kang Min-jae all pointed out that I felt excessive pressure and a sense of guilt, so I’m trying not to think too deeply about it, but I guess I can’t help it.

“Anyway, come visit me once the interior design is finished. I have to do some simulations too.”

“Okay. Oh, then I guess I should buy a flower pot and take it with me.”

“It’s not like we’ve even opened yet, so come by.”

“Anyway, I’m really happy that Minjae was discharged from the hospital safely. It’s a bit sad that he has a scar on his head, but it’s okay now that it’s covered.”

“No, bro. It’s not like it’s a permanent fix, and your hair is growing. After a little while, it won’t even be noticeable.”

“Okay. Who said what? But anyway, we have a tin can now.”

And they found something to tease faster than anyone else.

“Ha, I just got over my anger at Cheon Jong-nam, but I’m about to get angry again because of the tin can… … .”

“Sue for damages. Your reputation as a lawyer has been tarnished because of the tin can.”

“If my older brothers don’t tease me, my reputation won’t suffer!”

I was glad I reserved a room at the restaurant.

Why is it so noisy when I haven’t even had a drink?

I almost caused trouble for the people who came to quietly enjoy the food.

“Don’t go around bragging that you’ve been discharged from the hospital. Just stay home and get some rest.”

Choi Jong-hyun said something to Kang Min-jae, who was trying to get into the car driven by Jeong-hyeok.

Since he had said many times before his discharge that his throat was so sore that he couldn’t stand it, I was worried that he might not be able to walk as he said.

“Do you think I’m your lover? I also think my body is very precious to me now. Then I’ll go first!”

Kang Min-jae grumbled and left for Pyeongchang-dong with Kang Su-il, and we each went our separate ways.

Even if you are discharged later than you were supposed to be discharged, it would be right to give you time to rest.

I guess I’ll have to tell him to start work next week.

Even without that, you probably wouldn’t have been able to rest comfortably during your entire hospital stay because you had to gather in the hospital room and hold meetings.

“Lawyer, where is the delivery booklet?”

When I got home, changed my clothes, and came out, Taesik was busily searching all over the living room.

“Why, what are you going to eat now?”

“Again. You were elegantly slicing meat at the restaurant, but I was starving while protecting you?”

“Right. Isn’t there a delivery booklet nearby?”

“Yes. Did Sang-gil throw it away? I told him to throw away the trash. Did he really throw it away? You’re going to rummage through it. I worked so hard to collect it.”

It’s not that Taesik wasn’t thinking of making a collection of delivery books.

When a new delivery booklet comes out, I check to see if there are any differences from the booklet I already have, and if there are any stores I haven’t seen before, I put them together.

I always had to nag him to keep that collection out of my sight.

As is often the case with delivery brochures, the design was so flashy that it hurt my eyes, so I didn’t want to keep it in my house.

“Oh, it looks like Sang-gil really abandoned his son. Does he really want to die? I guess I’ll have to get him to eat something for once.”

“Just search for it and order it anywhere.”

“I feel like eating something really delicious right now. I don’t want to fill my stomach with just anything… … .”

That was when.

I heard the sound of someone pressing a password at the front door.

Who would enter the password to open the door and come into our house right now?

After switching shifts with Taeshik in the morning, Sanggil left work with a tired expression on his face.

It’s only 4 o’clock in the afternoon, so he’s still asleep.

“Lawyer, please stay here for now!”

Taesik quickly got on guard and ran to the front door.

I guess he thinks I’m an intruder, but if he were a real intruder, he wouldn’t be able to calmly type in the password if he knew I was home.

Anyway, since he was wearing a bulletproof vest and a sword, and Taesik was leading the way, I also went towards the front door with the intention of checking while maintaining a reasonable distance.

“Attorney, I’m here!”

And Kang Min-jae came in, holding a plastic bag that seemed to be full of something in one hand.

Needless to say, Jeong-hyeok followed me in hesitantly.
