You Promised Me, Mr. Lee San-ha - Chapter 95



Only Noblemtl

Episode 95 All that remains are photographs (5)

Bae Sang-deok continues to whine.

“Miss Dahee, no, Ms. Dahee, no, Miss Dahee! No, Lady Dahee! Now that you’re an exclusive model, you kept your promise, right? Right?!”

I will continue to beg like this until you acknowledge that I have fulfilled my promise.

Meanwhile, Han Da-hee was taking steps back from Bae Sang-deok, who was dripping oil.

“Oh, yes. That’s right… … . But first, you need to wipe off some oil… … .”

“This isn’t oil! It’s the regret and sorrow of a man who couldn’t keep his promises! A real man doesn’t wipe away his tears! Tears are supposed to evaporate! A man’s tears are supposed to be flammable!”

I can’t understand a single thing you’re saying.

I guess my comprehension was impaired by the pungent smell of gasoline.

Have you fulfilled your promise?

Y/N

Select Yes.

Only then does Bae Sang-deok’s maddening eyes begin to return to their proper place.

But just before that, I combined the promises between Bae Sang-deok and my spouse into one and carried them out.

To Kang In-sook (Bae Sang-deok’s spouse): If you spend a lot of money on a photo, pay Kang In-sook an amount equivalent to twice that amount.

Bae Sang-deok’s eyes immediately roll back.

The man who was shedding flammable tears just lifted the cell phone.

“Honey?! Where are you?! Why are you picking up so late?!”

The speakerphone was activated by oil dripping from the ball.

Bae Sang-deok’s wife screams.

[I picked up as soon as the signal rang, but what the hell are you talking about? Did you drink during the day again?!]

“I didn’t drink alcohol! I drank some oil, but that’s not the point!”

[If you talk about another X-like business investment, I’ll really rip your butthole off, so be careful what you say.]

“… … .”

A brief silence.

Even if he is not in his right mind, the threats his wife makes are scary.

“… … That’s not it! Didn’t I say I’d pay double if I spent money on the photos?”

[That’s right. You’ve already spent 400,000 won on me. When are you going to pay me?]

“I’ll give it to you now! But wait! That’s not all!”

A full-scale battle is about to begin.

“I bought the world’s first digital camera, Likee, an underwater camera, an SLR, a DSLR, a mirrorless camera, a thermal imaging camera, and a drone camera?! I spent 70 million won on the cameras alone! The lenses, batteries, tripods, fish-eye lenses, eyepieces, telephoto zoom lenses, standard lenses, wide-angle prime lenses… if you add all the lenses, it easily costs over 30 million won!”

[… … ?]

At Gongdeok Intersection, where a cold wind blows, only the sound of the wind lingers.

At the end of a long silence, Kang In-sook’s voice was heard.

[You must not have been able to sleep for a while… … .]

A calm voice, different from before.

It’s as if someone else has picked up the phone.

That voice, so calm, reminded me of the molka video of a former employee leaving his job that once heated up the internet.

The husband in the video hesitates for a while and then says, “I quit my job.”

After listening to my husband’s continued grumbling and apology.

The spouse says:

‘What’s there to be sorry about? It’s not something you can control.’

The angle of the video changes.

The spouse adds a word.

‘You must have had a hard time sleeping.’

A touching video that once brought many to tears.

Kang In-sook seemed to be that kind of person too.

Trust, acceptance, acceptance and gratitude towards my husband.

It seems that there was another person here who could express and endure such feelings honestly.

‘It went differently than expected, but it’s a good thing that it ended so warmly.’

Anyway, Bae Sang-deok confessed his crime.

His wife, Kang In-sook, forgave him… … .

[So just wait. I’ll make you fall asleep forever.]

Didn’t do it.

The grim reaper’s ultimatum.

Wife’s murder foreshadows.

But Bae Sang-deok does not give in even though his hands and feet tremble.

“And since it’s money related to photography, I should also mention the club fees! I paid for the club dinner and the model hiring fee!”

[You crazy kid, where did you get all that money?!]

“I’ve been bluffing you for a while now! I have real ledgers other than the fake ones I gave you! It seems like it costs a lot of money to maintain them if you want to show off!”

[What? Are you crazy?! So you sold your perfectly good car and traded it for a used Sonata?!]

“That’s right! I thought that if I spent a lot of money like this, the girl I brought in as a model would be crazy, but it didn’t work out that way! Nothing in this world is easy, right?!”

[Where are you?! Tell me now!]

“It’s in front of X-Oil headquarters! Why? Come and get it in cash? Why bother? I’ll send it through internet banking! But I don’t know if I can reach the transfer limit… … Huh, why did this woman suddenly hang up on me?”

I have to run away.

The survival instinct that mankind has developed over millions of years was now screaming out loud.

‘If you stay here, you’ll be searched!’

It’s like waiting for a Tyrannosaurus to burst out of the cage with a heavy machine gun.

Me, Maeng So-hyeon, and Han Da-hee, the three of us left that place without even looking back.

* * *

A window seat at a nearby cafe.

The survivors looked down at the empty lot in front of the X-Oil headquarters.

Booooooooooooooooooo!

A compact car fills Gongdeok Intersection with its exhaust sound.

Kkieeeeeeeekeeeek─!

The light car stopped in front of Bae Sang-deok.

A woman got out of the driver’s seat, shouted something, and then drove straight ahead.

A woman in pajamas casts a flying kick.

pop!

The sound of a loud crash is heard as Baesangdeok is tossed aside.

She rushes at him again before he can even get up.

This time, he wraps his right arm around Bae Sang-deok’s neck.

Maeng So-hyun, who was inside the cafe, started relaying while leaning close to the window.

“Ah~ Anaconda bike choke! You have to release that. If you can’t release it, you’ll have to go into tech!”

Bae Sang-deok tried to twist his body to escape, but it was no use.

Her biceps tighten, coiling like a giant snake.

“Is this going to end with a guillotine choke~?!”

But Maeng So-Hyeon’s prediction was completely wrong.

This is because Bae Sang-deok’s wife, Kang In-sook, reached out with her left hand and grabbed the other person’s belt.

Then he lifts Bae Sang-deok up high.

“Uh, that?!”

Bae Sang-deok, who was lifted into the air, falls behind Kang In-sook’s head.

Soon, he lands on his back on the floor with his legs caught.

bang!

“Muscle Buster-! It goes in cleanly-!”

Maeng So-hyeon shouted, raising both hands.

I never thought I would see such real pro wrestling techniques in action right before my eyes.

It seems that Bae Sang-deok was punished too harshly.

I opened the status window and processed the fulfillment of the promise he made to his wife.

Han Da-hee said, pushing her friend away from the window.

“Sohyun, stop yelling and sit down. Everyone is staring at you… … .”

“Wow, this was seriously awesome. It was a hot match that added some tension to the slacking off WWF!”

Han Da-hee turned her gaze away from Maeng So-hyun.

And he bowed his head towards me.

“Thank you for your help.”

“What could I have done? That old man over there seems to have more loyalty than he looks.”

Handaehee shook her head at my words.

“I heard from Sohyun. What… what should I call you? Can I call you oppa?”

“That seems too close. Just call me Mr. Sanha.”

“Yes. Anyway, I heard that Sanha oppa has a special way of speaking. It’s said that anyone who talks to him will keep their promises… … .”

“It’s roughly similar… … but it’s not that omnipotent. If you just open up and talk about it, people’s hearts can change, and things like that.”

Han Da-hee nodded with a smile.

“You’re really an amazing person. You can truly connect with someone you’ve just met. You seem like you have something really special.”

It feels like I’m unintentionally deceiving some innocent people again… … but there’s nothing I can do about it.

I guess it’s impossible to explain my abilities in detail.

At that moment, Maeng So-hyeon suddenly put down her coffee and said.

“Yeah! That’s perfect timing!”

Han So-hee and I looked at Maeng So-hyun at the same time.

Maeng So-hyeon looked at me and continued speaking.

“Senior, aren’t you a virgin who has never held a woman’s hand before?!”

“… … That may be true, but don’t you think there’s a need to say it so loudly?”

“Child, holding hands while playing Ganggangsullae in kindergarten is invalid. Anyway!”

Maeng So-hyun turned her gaze towards Han Da-hee.

At that moment, Han Da-hee pointed at herself with her finger.

“Huh? Me? Not me, I’m still… … .”

Maeng So-hyeon said, poking Han Da-hee with her elbow.

“Hey, what’s wrong! I need to repay the favor~!”

“No, but even so, it’s our first time meeting today, so how can I… … And I have to hear Sanha oppa’s opinion too… … .”

“Then just ask! What do you think, senior?!”

Maeng So-hyun looks excited with the highest tension ever.

She asked me with her eyes shining brightly.

I said with embarrassment.

“I never thought of this kind of repayment. No, this isn’t even a repayment in the first place.”

“Ah! What does that have to do with anything?!”

“It’s a bit strange, meeting like this.”

“What’s wrong with that?! I think Dahee should introduce me to a model girl she knows!”

… … ?

My gaze and Han Da-hee’s are fixed on Maeng So-hyun.

Maeng So-hyeon tilted her head.

“Why are you being so dismissive when I just introduced you to you? Dahee, why are you so silent?”

Well, that’s because you said it in a misleading way.

* * *

The next day, Sunday. Jamsil.

Me, Maeng So-hyun, and Han Da-hee. This is a promise that the three of us will meet together.

Maeng So-hyeon, who was very excited, patted Han Da-hee on the back and said.

“Wow, I can’t wait! If you put those two together, it’ll look like a painting, right?!”

“Ugh, uh… … . But it hurts, Sohyun.”

“Hmm! What do you think, senior?!”

Even if you ask me how it is, I don’t really have anything to say.

“I came out because Dahee said she’d buy me food, but what the… … . Didn’t I clearly say I don’t go on blind dates?”

“Don’t you know that in Korea, it’s the fault of the person who was deceived? This is exactly like the molka that’s popular these days.”

“I don’t even know anything about the person I’m being introduced to… … .”

“That’s the blind date that’s popular these days, black~.”

I wish someone would take her away.

Because of the tension that was building up, I was already exhausted.

“Why did you set up this blind date if you had other plans today in the first place?”

“That’s why I asked Dahee to look into it last night. Good job, Dahee!”

Maeng So-hyeon hit Han Da-hee on the back again.

Han Da-hee’s expression still doesn’t look good.

“Ugh. Dahee, you’ve worked hard.”

“……no.”

Looking at that sad expression, I can’t help but feel sorry for him.

Maeng So-hyun’s vitality must be something that is filled by sucking in the energy of others.

While we were having various small talk.

Again, again, again.

I could hear footsteps from behind, giving me the impression of a model’s presence.

Maeng So-hyun and Da-hee Han, who were sitting across from each other, each greeted each other.

“Oh! You are still beautiful!”

“Sister, are you here? It’s been a while~.”

I also turned my head and raised my body.

“Hello. Nice to meet you―”

I couldn’t finish speaking.

“… … ?”

Because it wasn’t my first time meeting her.
