Chapter 4: The Heart Should Be Like a Tiger (I)
A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and when I woke up in the morning, I saw the morning glow in the distance.
The seven-day wake-up time has passed, and my mother was buried next to my father's grave yesterday, and the husband and wife, who had been separated for more than ten years, came together again in this form, and the complex feelings of sorrow and comfort lingered in the chest, and I don't know what the road was about, and the depression and pain that used to occupy my mind suddenly disappeared a lot.
At this time, Ahn Junhyuk pushed the window and stood up, looking at the bright sky at the junction of the sea and the sky in the distance, the sea breeze with a warm smell in the cold morning rushed to his face, and his heart was suddenly more lively like this weather.
In any case, since the person has passed away, blindly remembering will not bring her back to life, but will harm herself and the people around her, rather than this, it is better to cheer up as soon as possible, only in this way, can you have enough energy to deal with many things in the future.
He had always been so sensible and purposeful.
Since he came back yesterday, the house has not been cleaned up, some paper flowers scattered on the ground, trampled on by people back and forth, clinging to the ground, the lanterns under the eaves have also been blown out of shape by the wind, and the burnt paper ashes have crawled all over the surrounding walls and ceilings, which must be cleaned properly.
Relatives would have come to help, but ......
Ahn Jun-hyuk smiled bitterly and shook his head, didn't think about it anymore, just freshened up, rolled up his sleeves and began to clean.
The house is not big, but it covers an area of 30 pings, because there were only 3 people in the family before, and there were not many rooms, and it took no effort to clean it thoroughly, and it was completed at almost noon, when the sun was already high in the sky, and the light and heat in the sky were thrown down, and An Junhyuk, who was resting in the small courtyard, closed his eyes slightly.
The breeze crept in through the half-open gate, caressing the courtyard, and a few potted plants in the courtyard that my mother used to tend, swaying the branches, began to reveal new sprouts, and the little green color, just seeing it, I felt happy.
In the past, my mother's favorite was them at this time, and she liked the vigorous, as if it had suddenly exploded.
ββ¦β¦ It's a pity that this place can't stay anymore. β
Ahn Jun-hyuk, whose eyes seemed to be closed, thought like this.
Because in this house, there are too many marks left by my mother, every brick and tile, she has worked hard with sweat, even if she just sees the green seedlings that occasionally break through the soil in the corner of the wall, you have to wonder if it is one day in late winter, my mother threw it there, waiting for spring to move it into a potted plant.
Living in such an environment is a kind of torture for both him and Jisoo, so in his dreams, he will take Jisoo to Jeju Island in the future.
Maybe only when time gradually heals the pain, they will come back again, use it to activate the memories of the past, and use it to remember!
Until then, only those who are far away from it are the best choice, especially at this time when Jisoo's lower limbs are paralyzed.
Immersed in his thoughts like this, I don't know how long it has been, the creak of the door being pushed open woke Ahn Junhyuk from his contemplation, he turned his head, a young man was pushing the door in, and when he saw him sitting in the courtyard, the man was stunned, "Why are you sitting here?"
"I'm not used to it in the house, and I always think of something. Ahn Junhyuk got up and welcomed him into the house, there was no hot water in the house, so he found a bottle of rice wine, found a cup, poured a glass, and handed it to the young man: "...... What do you say over there?"
The young man picked up the cup and raised his head to take a sip, although the degree was small, but his face was flushed for a while, and he was drunk at first, he exhaled, took out a card from his pocket and handed it to Ahn Junhyuk, and said with a smile: "Although it is more troublesome, but today, probably they don't want to continue to drag it out, 200 million won, all into this card." β
As he spoke, he looked at Ahn Jun Hyuk, "How do you know that they will definitely come up with this money?"
"The psychology of rich people, as long as they do not violate their psychological bottom line, can be solved with money is not a problem, only people like us will feel that the use of money is very troublesome. ββ¦,
Ahn Jun-hyuk naturally knows this truth, because in the future, he will also become a part of the rich people.
Looking at the small, thin card in his hand, although it was very light, but picking it up, it seemed to make him use all his strength, his hands trembled slightly, and his eyes were complicated and gloomy.
In a sense, this card was exchanged for his mother's life and his sister's legs, although he himself would not think like that, because he had his own plans, but apparently his relatives thought so, otherwise, they would not have left one by one after his mother was buried.
seemed to see what he was thinking, and the young man who was sitting opposite him drinking rice wine one by one, then said: "To tell the truth, if it weren't for playing since childhood and understanding your character, I would have thought that you guy would have an eye for money." Joon-hyuk, tell my brother, what the hell do you think, the family has been turned upside down because of your decision, no matter what, you can at least give me a reason to continue to help you!"
The young man is also Ahn Junhyuk's cousin, named Park Young-joon, who is currently studying at Pusan National University, and is an out-and-out high-achieving student.
Hearing his inquiry, Ahn Junhyuk smiled: "Now in the family, are you the only one who understands me?"
"Yingcheng and they also know that you must have other plans, but they are not as free as me, as soon as the uncles lose their temper, they don't dare to resist, don't take it too seriously. β
"I know. Ahn Junhyuk nodded, then changed the topic and said with a smile: "After dark, follow me to a place." β
"Hmm!"
After that, there was silence, Ahn Joon-hyuk silently packed up some things in the house, and was ready to take them with him when he was going to leave after a while, while Park Young-joon drank the bottle of rice wine in one go, as if he was venting something, and it didn't take long for the wine to come up, and the whole person was dizzy, and he didn't even eat lunch, so he found a random place in the guest room and fell asleep.
When he woke up again, it was already dark, he rubbed his sore neck, walked out of the room, there was no light, the living room was shrouded in darkness, only the sofa had a little fire flickering, and a vague figure sat on it, motionless.
"Junhyuk, why don't you turn on the lights?"
He asked, and then fumbled to turn on the light, and the sudden light pierced him for a while, and his head hurt slightly, which was the effect of drunkenness.
After a while, he got used to the light, and when he saw Ahn Jun Hyuk sitting on the sofa silently extinguishing the cigarette butt, his brows furrowed: "When did you start smoking?"
"Smoke one once in a while. Ahn Jun-hyuk replied briefly, "You freshen up first, I'll wait for you outside the door." β
Looking at Ahn Joon-hyuk's back as he walked away quickly, he didn't know what he was doing, Park Young-joon always felt that something was going to happen tonight, and after thinking about it for a while, his head became more and more painful, he shook his head, so he had to give up and continue to think, and went to the bathroom to wash his face, and finally felt better.
Out of the door, Ahn Joon-hyuk was squatting under the stairs in front of the door and waiting, when Park Young-joon noticed that he was wearing a black dress tonight, the style of which is the kind of dress that is only used for funerals, and a long backpack on his back, I don't know what was in the road.
Seeing him come out, Ahn Junhyuk didn't say much, got up and stepped onto the motorcycle parked on the side, put on a helmet, and beckoned him to get in the car.
Park Yingjun suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, took the helmet handed over and put it on, and in the roar, the motorcycle roared out of the sky.
Busan at night is actually the busiest time of the day, this is a tourist city, tourists scattered in various surrounding areas during the day, all return here at night, and live a unique nightlife in this place near the mountains and seas, but the two motorcycles all the way, Park Young-jun found that he didn't see many pedestrians, until a few sections later, he found that Ahn Joon-hyuk has been deliberately choosing some remote sections to move forward. β¦,
Park Young-joon didn't know what Ahn Joon-hyuk wanted to do, and he was inevitably a little flustered, but out of trust in his cousin, he chose to hold back the doubts in his heart.
After about half an hour of speeding like this, the motorcycle carried them to an area unknown to Park Yingjun, and then gradually slowed down, and finally passed a small road and passed into an alley.
On one side of the alley, the darkness connecting the pathway, and on the other side, it was brightly lit, and it seemed to be a very lively street, except for the noisy sound of pedestrians, Park Young-jun could faintly hear the roar of subwoofers belonging to nightclubs.
Ahn Joon-hyuk led through half an alley, and finally stopped in a shadow, and then took a step forward, and there was a place covered by light.
Such a clear distinction between light and darkness makes the shadow more and more able to cover the effect, Park Young-jun followed him for some reason, watching him calmly take out a mask from his pocket, put it on, cover the lower half of his face, and took off the backpack behind him, a bat that looked quite heavy, which he slowly pulled out, and with a blurred light, Park Young-jun vaguely saw the metallic color on the surface of the bat.
At this moment, he suddenly understood something, his face suddenly turned pale, and he was about to say something, when in front of him, Ahn Junhyuk, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
"Brother, do you remember our old club?"
"Mom didn't want me to be bad, she beat me up at the time, and I didn't continue to mix like that, and you think I'm taking care of it, but in fact, you don't know what to do, and I still keep in touch with some people, and at first I just wanted to be prepared, after all, this is a country where the underworld is rampant......"
"I've been paying attention to him for the past few days, probably because someone has finally helped him solve the problem, and he has no pressure, so as soon as he came out of the hospital, he can't wait to stay around here every night and night. Thanks to you for helping me, I think he will come here to celebrate when things are over perfectly today...... After all, you don't have to go to jail!"
ββ¦β¦ What a naΓ―ve guy, they really believe it, brother, you said that if he gets drunk in a nightclub and argues with people, and something bad happens, will his family suspect me?"
Park Yingjun's hands began to tremble, he looked at the tall figure in front of him with a dull gaze, and for a moment, he even doubted, is the person in front of him really the younger brother he is familiar with?
At this point, there is no need to explain more, Park Young-joon is not a fool, of course he knows who the "he" in Ahn Jun-hyuk's mouth is - Kang Jae-won, the driver who caused all the accidents in Joon-hyuk's family, the rich second generation who was just extorted 200 million won by him today.
Of course they don't!
Park Young-joon smiled miserably, he has always been in charge of the negotiation with that side, he knew that Jun Hyuk was claiming 500 million won at the beginning, at that time he didn't understand what Jun Hyuk did for Jun-hyuk, and occasionally wondered if Jun Hyuk really saw the money, until this time he understood that his younger brother had misled everyone from the beginning, and he used his greedy face to make everyone except for a few brothers believe that he was taking this opportunity to open his mouth and demand huge compensation.
Let everyone believe that he is a man who can use everything in order to get rich.
If such a person disguised something as an accident, who would have thought that he would do it?
I'm afraid that even the police will exclude him as soon as possible when they are investigating!
