“Let go. This is violence!”
With a voice that betrayed fear, Bok-jun attempted to display courage.
“You see the CCTV in front of the door. Uncle, you started the violence first. And this is self-defense.”
Understanding the situation, Bok-jun glanced at the CCTV and then raised his hand as if he had been hit, though he hadn’t.
“Oh my, this guy hit someone!”
Even though the sound wouldn’t be picked up by the CCTV, he made strange noises.
“A tourist threatened someone with a thrown cup, holding a valid passport. Who do you think the police will side with? I’m just warning you. Don’t touch me. I won’t stand it.”
Only then did Bok-jun realize that his clumsy acting was useless.
“Alright, alright, so let me go.”
Si-yoon lifted Bok-jun even higher before letting him go. Using the force of struggling to get away from Si-yoon, Bok-jun tumbled out.
“Keep this in mind. Neither the artwork nor the foundation can be crossed.”
Bok-jun, who had fallen backward, placed a hand on his waist and struggled to get up.
“No matter how you put it, Dad said he would entrust the cultural foundation to me this time. Is a child closer, or a grandson?”
“It’s not a matter of closeness or distance. It’s a matter of ability, isn’t it?”
Ability.
Bok-jun’s Achilles’ heel was touched.
Because Bok-jun lacked both study and business skills, he always felt inferior in front of Si-yoon, who was skilled and diligent.
And until now, Si-yoon had never directly brought up the issue of ability, so it seemed to sting.
“Don’t talk about ability. It’s a matter of which blood is more influential.”
“Blood?”
“If I had any intention of giving it to you, why did Dad mention the condition of marriage to you? If he really wanted to give it to you, why did he repeatedly mention the position in the prestigious family line whenever it came up?”
Bok-jun let out a sneaky laugh.
Just being the grandson of the Taehan Foundation made Si-yoon the ace of the prestigious family.
Not only in the family but also in terms of ability and appearance, Si-yoon excelled. Recognizing this, the prestigious family with a daughter had eagerly sought a connection with the Taehan Foundation.
From the perspective of Director Kim, who hoped for Si-yoon’s marriage, these were proposals that could not be declined, and there were many positions he was reluctant to take. However, for some reason, Director Kim overcame all obstacles.
Seeing Director Kim’s actions, Bok-jun was relieved.
‘Even though I cause accidents and have many problems, I’m Dad’s beloved youngest son!’
He thought that his father was considering giving him at least one cultural foundation.
“Why did my father reject all those good offers for you?”
Rubbing his sore waist, Bok-jun complained with a hint of malice. Seeing that pitiful sight, Si-yoon raised one corner of his mouth and laughed coolly.
“That’s right. Why did Grandfather decline that good position?”
“Ha. Are you asking me about that?”
Bok-jun glared at Si-yoon as if he were surprised.
“I don’t need a position like that.”
Si-yoon raised his left hand, showing the wedding ring shared with Mi-joo on his ring finger, sparkling.
Bok-jun, who had been complaining about his sore waist, seemed surprised and tried to grab Si-yoon’s hand as if to check. However, Si-yoon rejected Bok-jun’s hand, as if telling him not to touch.
“I told you earlier. Don’t touch me!”
Si-yoon pointed at the CCTV in front of the door once again.
As Bok-jun alternated between Si-yoon’s finger, the ring, and the CCTV, he quickly picked up his phone and watch from the table.
“Where’s Father?”
“Are you only in a hurry now?”
“Where is he?”
“Stop making a fuss and come out quietly. I don’t want to make an effort either.”
At a large grocery store, Mi-joo was shopping.
Although not as much time was spent as before, she had resumed the part-time job she had stopped.
Today’s task was to deliver groceries to a vegan household. The customer had written down the names of brands and products meticulously, but since they were not items Mi-joo frequently purchased, she couldn’t easily find the ordered products.
Her mind and thoughts were complicated due to various reasons, making the work difficult.
‘It’s just a contractual relationship. I have to live confidently, even if it’s difficult.’
Mi-joo’s effort to live with a smile, just as she had done in the past years, even when things were tough, was evident.
As she looked at the food list on her phone, someone approached her. Sensing the familiar presence, Mi-joo slightly moved aside and picked up a ham to check the product.
“Why do you have your phone but don’t answer the calls?”
A familiar voice reached her ears.
It was a warm voice in the midrange, but for a moment, Mi-joo felt chills on her arm, and her body stiffened.
Paused in surprise, Si-yoon snatched the bag from Mi-joo’s hand, threw the items into the cart, and grabbed Mi-joo’s arm, turning her toward him.
“I didn’t know you got calls.”

Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.

Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
