The warm tea had been served, but my biological father’s well-wishes went on for quite a while. He fussed, saying he felt relieved seeing the two of us getting along, that he had a feeling we’d be hearing some good news soon. I gave half-hearted responses. My stepmother watched the mood and threw in a few indifferent remarks. Baek Mugyeong didn’t touch his tea and sat silently. It was my stepmother who finally got to the point after the small talk. “Minchae.” “Yes.” “I heard…- 281.3 K • Completed
“Months, or years?” Yohan grew despondent at the vast, unfathomable length of time, but he forced himself to stay positive. If he hadn’t met Lee Hyunmook, he would’ve been shredded to death by that murderous eyeball monster. He needed to be thankful just to be alive. “Yes, Mr. Lee Hyunmook! Let’s hang in there together!” When Yohan spoke with renewed spirit, Hyunmook stared at him blankly, as if watching some alien lifeform moving in an unfamiliar way. Truthfully, even in his sane…- 297.5 K • Completed
The silence was broken when a variety of skewers of meat, fragrant with cumin and chili peppers, arrived on a sizzling iron plate. Lu Ran picked up the roasted pork belly and slurped the whole thing into his mouth. "This place is delicious." "Try the grilled chicken gizzards. They're marinated before grilling, so they're very flavorful." Chu Baiyan loved the texture of their grilled gizzards. Lu Ran ate another skewer of gizzards. He lifted his glass and poured the rest of his beer into his mouth.…- 98.2 K • Completed
- He opened the door and went inside, and Chu Baiyan first went to the bathroom to wash the grease left on his hands from eating barbecue. Then he took a spare key from the drawer of the desk and handed it to Lu Ran. “Keep the key. Don’t rush about finding a job. Look around first. I’ll get another access card from the property office tomorrow morning, and I’ll message you so you can go there to pick it up.” Lu Ran took the key and placed it casually on the desk beside him, and his peripheral…

- Yohan, right after he treated the people on the island, released the energy that had been waiting inside his body. The formless energy spread far like a fish in water. Now he understood why awakeners compared this to a river current. He was the spring, and when the water from this spring pooled inside someone with a proper vessel, that person became an awakener. Not long after that, just two days ago, a low-level purifier awakened. The government immediately signed a contract and pushed him into the…

- There was a stack of bamboo baskets on the floor. Meng Fan wanted to buy many things, so Xia Zhifei picked up one and helped him pack the ceramics he had chosen. As his gaze followed along the wooden shelves, his attention was caught by the fruit mugs. “I’ll buy two cups too.” He picked up a mug with a three-dimensional fruit design. It was too cute. “Pick whatever you want. I’ll buy them for you.” Meng Fan was busy taking things off the shelf according to his list and…

- Before the regression, the details of who Baek Yeongseop had married and what kind of family she came from were hazy in my memory. So I couldn’t recall anything about the man smiling foolishly in front of me either. As Baek Mugyeong had said, nothing could be guaranteed until the wedding actually happened. Even after checking each other’s backgrounds, getting engaged, and completing all the preparations, it wasn’t uncommon for things to fall apart. When Baek Mugyeong said we had to wait and…

- Wasn’t the first subway barely enough to fill half the tunnel? But now, it looked like it filled nearly two-thirds. He couldn’t tell when it had gotten so big. Paaaang! The sound of it barreling toward them was deafening. Lee Hyunmook, who had been staring sharply at the subway, gauged the distance between the wall and the subway, then leapt. Yohan’s arms, wrapped tightly around Lee Hyunmook’s neck, tensed. Lee Hyunmook climbed using the grooves in the wall and hung from the ceiling.…

- “Him?” Yohan tilted his head, confused. He often watched documentaries, vlogs, and clips about the Sunrise Team. Yoon Seungryong had always come across as a cheerful, active, and diligent person, maybe a bit of a punk, sure, but definitely not lazy. He wasn’t sure about the appetite part, but he didn’t seem like the slothful type at all. Lee Hyunmook reminded him of a key detail.“Yohan, you know how corruption amplifies negative traits, right?” “Ah, yes. I’ve heard…

- “Aren’t you curious?” “About what?” “Why do you think I went out of my way to find you?” “You dug up my identity, got a sex tape, harassed me, and had your fun with me in bed. Seems like you’ve done everything you wanted.” “…” “What else do you want? There’s more? I’m too tired for a bathroom round. Plus, everyone can hear in there.” Lear sighed at Yohan’s question. “An FBI agent with such bad instincts…” “What, you jerk?” “Has your…
