Chapter 143: Twisted things?
Chapter 143: Twisted things?
After discussing with Kyuri, Kang Si An calls his manager to take a break for a few days. He wonders if he writes down a will (just in case). Since the Keeper is here, he's sure that saving Yoon Miran cannot be a simple task.
Unlike Kang Si An, Kyuri has already prepared things in case she dies. She did it after Little Hae was born. Since she's a time-traveller, she can't believe her fate. Even though the timekeeper told her that she would live up to 91, she knows that things are never permanent when it comes to her.
"Little Hae, do you love Hyun?" Kyuri has a new worry. Since Jae Hyun is Wu Yixing's reincarnation, she can't help but feel awkward. The prince who loved poisons more than humans is going to be her son-in-law.
"Yes, Mommy." Little Hae grins at her. "I am going to marry him when I grow up."
"..." Kyuri curses the day when she suggested to Yoon Miran that their children should meet. She should have prevented Little Hae from meeting Jae Hyun.
"I hope that he doesn't love poisons this time." Kyuri sighs and massages her forehead. If Little Hae has her aunt's soul, she can't prevent the inevitable. But she feels weird. How is Kang Si An so calm about this?
She wishes that she didn't have a time-travel ban. Otherwise, she would have gone back and asked her aunt not to decide to be born as her daughter.
Her aunt must have thought that it was funny.
"Little Hae, you can't do this to me again." She hugs her fluff ball of cuteness. "I love you, but you can't think of twisted things, okay?"
"Twisted things?" Little Hae is confused, but she hugs back her mother. "I won't think about it."
"Don't marry Jae Hyun until you are 35," Kyuri adds.
"Mommy, I can't do that. I already promised him that I would marry him when I turn 18," Little Hae tells her straightforwardly.
"Why do you make big promises to someone without asking me?" Kyuri glares at her daughter. "You are nearly 4. I have only 14 years with you."

"Mommy, Hyun told me that all of us will live together." Little Hae smiles brightly.
"So cunning." Kyuri can see that Jae Hyun has bought her daughter.
"Mommy, it's 5 PM." She looks at the phone. "I want to call Hyun."
Perplexed, Kyuri calls Jae Hyun's father because her daughter won't stop nagging her.
Little Hae: "Hyun, I love you."
Hyun: "Hae, I love you too."
Little Hae: "Hyun, when will you come to my house to play?"
Hyun: "My mother won't let me. You come here."
Little Hae: "I will ask Mommy."
Hyun: "Come quickly."
Little Hae looks at her dumbfounded mother. "Mommy, can you take me to Hyun's house?"
She snaps out of the daze. "No way. You can't go to that place."
Little Hae's round eyes become misty. "Why?"
Kyuri clutches her heart. "Your father said no. It's not my fault. Don't look at me like that."
Let Kang Si An become the bad guy.
Little Hae: "Hyun, my daddy is jealous of you. He won't let me come."
Hyun. "I will ask my Father to talk to your father."
Little Hae: "I miss you."
Hyun: "I miss you too."
Kyuri feels like dying of embarrassment. Even she didn't talk to Li Jun like this ever. She never called Kang Si An like this. This new generation is scaring her.
Her daughter already has a boyfriend. It took her 21 years to like someone and that was also a disaster.
She knows how Kang Si An feels.
Sighing, Kyuri goes to the refrigerator to find food.
***
8 PM.
"You are here." Kang Si An beams at Kim Taeho. "Is Yoon Miran alone with the children?"
Kang Si An called Kim Taeho earlier to come to his place. They can't talk about Yoon Miran at the bar where they usually meet for drinks. Kang Si An likes Kim Taeho as a friend. He wants Kim Taeho to know and be prepared.
Kim Taeho finds the question odd. "No, my mother is at our home."
"Oh." Kang Si An realizes that Kim Taeho might have some idea. Living with Yoon Miran for so long, it's nearly impossible to not notice since Kim Taeho was also involved with that murderer. "Come inside."
His friend steps into the apartment. It's cleaner than he expected. He takes a seat on the couch and waits. He can guess that Kang Si An called him to have an important talk. Kang Si An is tense and nervous. He takes a seat opposite of Kim Taeho.
"What do you want to talk about?" Kim Taeho asks with a cool voice.
"Err..." Kang Si An doesn't know how to start. It's not every day that he talks about a supernatural thing. If it wasn't urgent, he wouldn't discuss it this way. "When are you enlisting for two years of mandatory military service?"
Kim Taeho has been delaying it as long as he could. He's going to be 28 soon. He doesn't want his children to be alone with Yoon Miran. He's been planning to ask his parents to live with Yoon Miran, but that's a stretch. Yoon Miran can barely tolerate when his parents visit. She will never agree.
"Next month."
Kang Si An realizes that they really don't have much time. "Do you believe in the supernatural?"
Usually, Kim Taeho would laugh at such questions. But Kang Si An is looking at him seriously.
"I don't."
Kang Si An smiles at him awkwardly. "Not even ghosts?"
"Aren't they supernatural?" Kim Taeho raises his brow. "Did you call me here to discuss supernatural?"
Kang Si An nods. He takes a deep breath. "Yoon Miran has Kwak In-Sik's soul inside her."
Kim Taeho becomes pale when he hears that name. He didn't expect that Kang Si An would ever say it. It's been years since the name has been buried. Kwak In-Sik is missing and they are still looking for him. Most people have assumed him dead. Only Kim Taeho and Yoon Miran know for sure that he's dead. "Is this a joke?"
"I am not joking. My life depends on it." Kang Si An stares at Kim Taeho. "I know that Kwak In-Sik is dead. Yoon Miran has his soul inside her. When you leave for the military service, she might harm your children."
"Kang Si An!" Kim Taeho looks at him with a chilling gaze. "Don't. I think of you as my friend. If you speak nonsense, I will stop considering you as one."
"You know that I am right." Kang Si An blocks his way. "Kyuri also knows it. She told Yoon Miran and that's why they are friends. Kyuri is not an average person. I am not average either. Listen to our story. Then, I will take you to Kyuri."
Kim Taeho's face contorts in anger. He doesn't want to listen to him for a single second more.
"It's for your children's safety." Kang Si An looks straight at him. "If I am right, your children might be in danger. Can you take this chance?"
Kim Taeho scowls at him, but he knows that he can't take this chance. Yoon Miran has been strange since that night. He has often heard her talking to Kwak In-Sik. He thought that it was a mental illness - a delusion. That's why he's extremely cautious.
But if Kang Si An is right for 1 %, then his children might be in danger. He can't take that chance. He decides to hear him first.
