Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 588
[Episode 588] The Little Princess of the North Sea Ice Palace.
When I returned to Baekhwa Company after work.
If there was anything he wanted to do right away, it was, of course, to find Mo Yong-hee.
‘I have to go eat.’
It’s true that I’m doing a job that doesn’t taste good.
After a long time meeting, I thought that was the first thing to do.
but.
“Sub-owner.”
“…Yes, Lord of the top.”
Right now, I’m not in the mood to do that.
“If you have something to say, I will listen first.”
The atmosphere collapses in an instant at Mrs. Mi’s cool words.
The season must have been summer, but for some reason, I felt like a cold wave was raging.
“…”
Upon hearing this, Mo Yong-hee went through a moment of silence and then spoke to Mrs. Mi.
“sorry. It was because I was careless.”
There are no excuses.
It was just Mo Yong-hee’s answer.
‘Looking at the situation…’
It seems that he is getting scolded for missing the little princess.
‘Hmm.’
Although the little princess who ran away in the first place did something wrong.
Mo Yong-hee’s problem was to some extent that he couldn’t catch it.
no matter how unfair
‘Because that’s what a person in charge is.’
If you are in charge of work, you should be criticized when things go wrong.
Mo Yong-hee must have known about it, so I had nothing more to say.
Tak-Tak-.
The sound of Mrs. Mi knocking on the desk.
Are you tapping with your fingers?
I remembered listening to it.
‘It’s the same habit as my father.’
I think my father often behaved like that when he thought about it.
I thought it was a strange coincidence.
“The situation has been reported and understood.”
“yes.”
“It was an unexpected situation, but you know very well that you are in a position to take responsibility.”
“I will accept any punishment.”
“All right. If that’s the case…”
‘…’
He recalled the feeling he had released after hearing that.
Stealing more than this seemed to be a problem.
Leaning against the wall and closing my eyes, time passes.
profit.
The door opened and Mo Yong-hee walked out.
“ah.”
Mo Yong-hee looked at me and hesitated.
“…what. Were you here?”
“I just have nothing to do.”
Words that don’t even sound cool, I think.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yong-hee slightly frowned and asked.
“Then I guess you heard everything?”
“…what?”
Mo Yong-hee gave a trivial answer, and Mo Yong-hee smiled.
“You still can’t lie.”
“What do you think I lied about?”
“are you okay. It’s better to be bad than to be good at it.”
I couldn’t believe anything he said.
Does it tease you that much? This one won…
‘Should I wear a mask every day?’
Ooh, that’s what I thought.
As I tried to follow Mo Yong-hee, she looked at me and tilted her head.
“Is it okay if I don’t visit Danju?”
“are you okay.”
It doesn’t seem like there’s much to see right now.
I will call you if necessary It was the same idea.
“Well, it would be better to visit.”
“what?”
“no. You want to eat?”
I tried to respond to Mo Yong-hee’s self-talk, but she soon noticed the reason for my visit and started walking first.
“great. I was so scolded that I got a little hungry.”
I wonder what it has to do with getting scolded and being hungry.
Now was not the time to quibble.
If I caught it, it was very obvious that I would be robbed.
No matter how ignorant I am
‘Because I can see he’s in a bad mood right now.’
I could tell that Mo Yong-hee was holding back her emotions.
Mo Yong-hee moves slowly.
Then he suddenly turns his head and looks at me.
“Come to think of it. What do you want to eat?”
Hearing it, he said it seemed natural.
“dumpling.”
“…”
Upon hearing this, Mo Yong-hee frowned.
No, why are dumplings…?
******************
I said so, but in the end I couldn’t eat dumplings.
Gaekjan, which I always ate at, was not in a good location.
It was because there was also opposition from Mo Yong-hee.
It seems that he doesn’t like to eat dumplings.
So, in the end, we had no choice but to find a restaurant located within the upper level.
In terms of time, it’s around the time of death.
We sat around the largest table waiting for our food.
Squeak.
Mo Yong-hee carefully pours the water.
The water comes in front of me first, and in front of you second.
Lastly, after pouring the water of the dangsoyeol.
“Here you go.”
He handed Seong-yul a water bottle.
It meant that you know how to drink.
Looking at that, I clicked my tongue briefly inwardly.
‘Anyway, the line is still firm.’
For those who don’t know what it is, the wall is so thick even for trivial actions.
It was always Mo Yong-hee.
Sungyul did not show any reaction.
It would be right to see that you don’t even care.
“so. Who is this?”
“ah.”
Mo Yong-hee asked about Seong-yul.
Come to think of it, I didn’t even introduce myself.
“friend?”
I was bored, so I answered roughly.
“…Oh, I see.”
After hearing the answer, Mo Yong-hee looked at Seong-yul.
There was pity in those eyes for some reason.
“what? Why are you looking at me like that?”
“cheer up.”
He even gives support to Seong-yul.
“What are you struggling with? What are you struggling with?”
“When will the rice come out? It’s a little late today.”
“…You ordered it right before pouring the water. Are you coming out already?”
No wonder, really.
“still. This slave…no, your friend feels a little different.”
“You’re just a slave…”
“It’s hot. It’s summer.”
“…”
I decided to stop talking.
It’s definitely summer.
It was so hot that I thought I would die from a vase.
Anyway, talking more would only hurt me, so I decided to just get to the point.
“…explain what happened.”
After talking with a little emotion, Mo Yong-hee also coughs a few times.
The reason why they came to eat together was to listen to what they had to say.
“How can I explain?”
“Little Princess.”
“hmm.”
Mo Yong-hee drools lightly.
Looking at it, I said.
“It’s fine if you don’t explain.”
When he said it calmly, a question lingered in Mo Yong-hee’s eyes.
“Aren’t you curious?”
How can I not wonder
What I’m curious about is obviously correct.
“Even if you don’t speak. There are many ways to know anyway.”
“…”
Ha.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yong-hee let out a short sigh.
“…Those methods aren’t all peaceful, are they?”
“That’s what everyone likes.”
said with a smile.
Yes, everyone likes it.
It’s the difference between the eyes that see.
“I usually don’t wrap things up because it’s my taste. Confucius.”
“anyway. I will tell you.”
Even if Mo Yong-hee didn’t talk about it, he would know anyway.
I felt the need to find out as much as Mrs. Mee had said that this had something to do with me.
Wouldn’t the smart moyongga saebchim-I don’t know this?
It won’t.
‘But he’s reluctant to talk about it.’
It must mean there is something
Oh sure.
‘Even if I know that, I have no intention of withdrawing.’
I looked at Mo Yong-hee with such feelings.
“…”
A few seconds passed since we met each other’s eyes.
“…What are you curious about?”
In the end, Mo Yong-hee raised the white flag first.
It was fortunate.
I guess I shouldn’t have to do anything cumbersome.
“Confucius.”
“huh.”
“Even if you listen to me now. Anyway, you will hear a separate explanation from Danju later.”
“I guess so.”
“Are you still listening now?”
Mo Yong-hee is right.
Anyway, I can hear some explanation.
but.
“It’s more important to listen to you first than that.”
“…”
Rather than what you will hear in the future.
First, I had to listen to the story from Mo Yong-hee’s point of view.
Among those who will speak to me, Mo Yong-hee will be on my side the most.
“…what the.”
After hearing my words, Mo Yong-hee slightly averted her gaze.
It is also vaguely visible that the ears are also slightly red.
He seemed to understand the meaning of the words to some extent.
“What… are you asking?”
“Ah, the first thing I asked…”
It’s a question I’ve been deciding on for a long time.
Why did the little princess come here?
How did Baekhwa Sangdan, not Meng, be entrusted with this kind of work?
It wasn’t something you’d hear later.
Exactly what I ask.
“Why did you miss the little princess?”
“…”
Upon hearing the question, Mo Yong-hee’s eyes widened.
Yes, that was the first thing I asked.
“You crossed the wall. Right?”
“…yes.”
“When did you get over it?”
“It’s been several months. It was not long after I broke up with Gongja-nim.”
“hmm.”
Mo Yong-hee was already at the peak.
I spent time and melted all the bottles that she was born with.
Afterwards, Mo Yong-hee also practiced martial arts again and crossed the wall.
As much as I started again after not training for several years.
You put in a lot of effort, so it’s definitely something to congratulate.
“The little princess was a first-class entry.”
Now was not the time to lightly congratulate.
“Not to mention, the surrounding escorts weren’t weak either.”
The same goes for the number of people deployed at the top.
There’s no way the little princess from the Ice Palace came alone, so their escorts would be the same.
However, a first-class princess escapes their surveillance?
“It’s something that wouldn’t normally happen.”
“Mmm.”
“How did that happen?”
This was not to blame Mo Yong-hee for her incompetence.
It was such a strange thing that I had to ask. Especially…
‘then. The feeling that the little princess felt.’
The moment when light radiated from the little girl’s body.
I had to feel the strange energy at the same time as the light.
It must have been trying to do something.
That kept getting annoying.
When asked with doubts, Mo Yong-hee carefully opened her mouth.
“What Confucius said is correct. It was a situation that could never be missed…. I even arranged more people like that on purpose.”
“however.”
“There was nothing too strange about the situation. I was walking around. I was by your side.”
No matter how you look at it, there is no way to escape.
I don’t know if anyone else knows, but Mo Yong-Hui-Ah never does anything careless.
I knew he was such a person, so I couldn’t understand him any more.
“But… at some point, when I looked to the side, the little princess had disappeared.”
I listened and shook my head.
“Disappeared?”
“Yes, it really disappeared in an instant. Without a chance to feel the presence…”
“Hmm.”
disappeared so suddenly
If that’s the case, as expected…
‘Looks like he did something.’
what you were trying to do for me It looks like he got out of there using it.
what is it what method did you use?
‘Is it a noble?’
That was most likely.
‘If that’s the case here.’
Why the hell did the little princess run away?
What is the reason to come all the way to the middle court and run away?
I have such a question, but it was not something to ask Mo Yong-hee.
It’s something she still doesn’t know.
“Is this the end you ask?”
That’s what Mo Yong-hee said because I’m not asking any more questions.
“No, there is still one more left.”
Unfortunately, it wasn’t time to finish the question.
The most important thing remained.
“The little girl’s face. He looked a lot like you.”
“Ah….”
Upon hearing the question, Mo Yong-hee’s expression slightly changed.
didn’t miss that
“Is that just a coincidence?”
In a way, this is a strange question.
It’s like suspecting that there’s something going on with the resemblance.
Even if it’s half, Mo Yong-hee is also a North Sea person.
Her light blue eyes were proof of this.
I don’t know what the relationship will be like with the little princess in the North Sea.
It was the same as being born in the palace, so it could be natural that the two resemble each other.
I just want it to be a bit too similar.
I think it’s more strange to see it strangely, but…
Looking at Mo Yong-hee’s eyes, I could tell.
“That’s…”
That she’s stuck on something too.
“I do not know.”
“You don’t know?”
“yes. I was really surprised when I first saw it.”
I guess so.
Even if you’re like me, you’d be surprised to see someone who looks just like me.
You’ll feel bad too.
“But, on the other hand, the little princess wasn’t surprised.”
“Mmm.”
It took a lot for this part.
Mo Yong-hee was surprised as soon as she saw it, but the princess was fine…
“I wasn’t surprised when I saw her face. He just asked me to speak.”
“word?”
“yes. The question I asked at that time must be…”
[Really… have you escaped the curse of the ice crystal?]
.
‘Curse of Ice Crystal?’
Hearing that, I paused for a moment. Ice crystal. It’s something you’ve never heard of.
It seems to have been said to be a symbol of the North Sea, where tremendous cold air is condensed.
Is it the curse of the ice crystal?
Also, seeing Mo Yong-hee?
Tuk-tuk-.
As he remembered his thoughts, he tapped the tabletop with his finger.
‘Could it be related to constitution?’
Arthropathy that Mo Yong-hee had.
I wondered if that meant it.
‘How does the little princess know that?’
The person who mentioned this was the problem.
Even mentioning that the curse has been cured means that he knows that Mo Yong-hee has been cured.
when you see this
‘That means I didn’t come here just to go out.’
It seemed that there was something heavier than expected as the reason why the little princess came to Jungwon.
Doubts overlap.
I feel something out of the ordinary.
By the time you keep thinking about the question.
“excuse me.”
Someone came up to us and started talking.
“I have brought you a message from the Dan Lord.”
It was an employee at the top.
Everyone looked at him wondering what was going on.
He speaks in a calm voice.
“’The little princess has come to her senses.’
Hearing that, I had to frown.
The person involved in this incident has opened his eyes, so come up quickly.
That’s what it meant.
the problem is.
“…I haven’t eaten yet.”
The rice I ordered was that I couldn’t even open a spoon.
