Childhood Friend of the Zenith chapter 111

111 – I’m going too. (One)

because i’m going too (One)

After Guyangchen leaves the room.

There was an unknown silence between Dang So-yeol and Namgoong-bia, who were left alone in the room.

If Guyangcheon had remained, it would have been a cold atmosphere that would make it impossible to breathe.

Bia Namgoong, who had been staring at Dang So-yeol, sat across from Dang So-yeol.

Dang So-yeol naturally takes out a new teacup, hands it to Bia Namgung, and pours her some tea.

Squeak-.

Even during this time, not a word of conversation was exchanged between the two.

After a moment that seemed like a very long time had passed.

Dang Soyeol was the first to speak.

“It’s been a while, sister.”

“… yes. Long time no see… .”

While talking, they do not exchange glances with each other. Namgoongbia was counting the number of wrinkles on the wooden table.

Dang Xiaoyeol was looking at the tea leaves floating on top of the tea.

“I thought I’d see you next year, even if it was sooner, but it’s faster than I thought. right.”

“… yes.”

“sister.”

“yes?”

“Why are you here?”

At Dang Soyeol’s direct question, Namgungbia was at a loss for words.

What should I answer? As usual, half-jokingly, can I move on to saying that I’m here because I’m your fiancée?

Namgoongbia already knew. You shouldn’t be saying that here.

Dang So-yeol took a sip of tea as Namgoong-bia was silent.

Because my throat was getting dry. And then I thought to myself.

I didn’t mean to have this conversation in the first place… .

Dang Soyeol, who finally sighed at the tangled conversation, brought out another story.

“… I heard that your sister might get engaged to the former Gongja.”

Maybe.

Since the three of them had already made an appointment, it must have been confirmed, but Dang So-yeol did not want to confirm that they were engaged.

It was a weak and weak pride.

Namgoongbia did not make any complaints about this. I just silently nod my head.

“Did your sister’s affair also come into play?”

Dang So-yeol asked.

Did Namgoongbia’s will come into this engagement?

Dang So-yeol still vividly remembered the memory of that time.

When asked if she likes Guyangcheon, Namgoongbia’s answer.

‘I said no.’

Namgoongbia was like that. It’s not affection, it’s not rational crush.

However, when Dang Xiaoyeol saw the present Namgoongbia, he was still not sure whether she had the same heart and mind.

It is not an abstract sense that it may have changed over time.

There was a clear light in Namgoongbia’s deep blue eyes, which were filled with emptiness.

There was a slight blush on his cool, pale skin.

The flowers have bloomed.

What used to be brilliant with just the buds has now blossomed beautifully enough to shine.

beautiful.

Namgoongbia, seen as the same woman, was too beautiful.

‘… It’s too much.’

Namgoongbia secretly clenched her fists on her knees. Dang So-yeol is confident in his appearance.

In fact, Dang So-yeol had a beautiful appearance that anyone could see.

I also like to decorate myself, so I even enjoy dressing up. he is pretty It was Dang So-yeol who knew that better than anyone else.

Everything is insignificant to the woman in front.

As much as that, Namgoongbia had a deep beauty.

Could this be because of the jealousy centered on Guyangcheon?

‘… It’s not like that.’

The headdress tying Namgoongbia’s long hair caught my eye for a moment.

Namgoongbia was worried about cutting off even her beautiful hair, let alone ornaments, as it would interfere with her training.

She was wearing ornaments.

“sister… ?”

Dang Soyeol sang Namgoongbia again. Only then did Namgoongbia shake her head.

In fact, it is because his wish did not enter into the engagement.

“… still. I think you’re lucky.”

“…”

Dang Soyeol lowered his head at Namgoongbia’s answer.

It seemed that all the answers were contained in those words.

‘… What happened to that swearing sister?’

Be honest with your feelings.

Whether it’s in the eyes that seem to be looking at someone even if you can’t see it.

The atmosphere that was only cold was mixed with warmth.

Dang So-yeol knew that it was all caused by having someone in his heart.

At first, if Namgoongbia was not happy with the engagement, Dang Soyeol thought of helping her.

To be honest, I kind of wished that was the case.

I needed that justification.

“Unni, you said you didn’t like the old Confucius.”

“yes.”

“I still do… ?”

Dang So-yeol asked.

“no.”

Namgoongbia replied. At that time, he had answered Dang So-yeol that way.

However, the answer now is different.

While answering, Namgoongbia thinks. Does she adore the boy?

I honestly don’t know.

Namgoongbia doesn’t know love. So I wasn’t sure.

I just liked the occasional gaze, and I liked the stroking hand when he fell asleep.

I also liked the way he tried to take care of me secretly while spitting angular words out of his mouth.

From the tic-tick action to the way he constantly asks if he has eaten, there was also the subtlety of noticing if he was in a bad mood or tired even a little bit.

If you don’t see him, you will find him. When I see it, I want to go to the side.

When I approach him, he pretends to push away, but in the end he just stays there.

Namgoongbia stayed by his side.

is this love I’m still not sure.

If you don’t know, it’s just a matter of learning slowly.

If you stay by his side all the time, you will come to know him naturally.

Namgoongbia didn’t know much, but she was certain of this.

Dang Soyeol carefully put down his hand holding the tea at the firm answer.

‘My sister is misunderstood because she doesn’t know much about the world.’

‘It wouldn’t be nice to be engaged like that.’

‘I know how many good men there are in the world. Let’s think again.’

Dang Soyeol swallowed the many words that came to mind indifferently.

Even when he thought of it, it was a very petty and immature word.

I didn’t want to go that far.

To Dang So-yeol, Namgungbia was still more important than Guyangcheon. So, there was nothing that could be said behind the scenes.

just.

‘Why should I… .’

Why did Bia Namgoong’s fiancé become Gu Yangcheon? The same goes for himself, who came to this point because he was fascinated by his appearance.

There was also something a little unfortunate.

Maybe I should have been begging my father to put the engagement in the Kuga.

‘My father wouldn’t have done it.’

I was about to get engaged to Namgung Cheonjun, halfway through shedding tears of blood.

At that time, Dang So-yeol remembered that Dang So-yeol had a smile on his lips while stopping him from smoking.

Finally, Dang Xiaoyeol let out a sigh. In the exhaled breath, the complex mind was clearly revealed.

I was just fascinated by my appearance, so is it really that hard to give up?

I released my clenched fist.

“Sorry.”

Dang So-yeol’s eyes widen at the sudden apology he hears.

“Suddenly, what kind of apology?”

“… Soyeol is… .”

“No, it’s okay if you don’t apologize, sister.”

Namgoongbia has only been there for a few months, but she has come to feel many things.

In particular, I had a point of view where I could look a little deeper into people’s emotions.

Compared to the others, it is infinitely low, but compared to the past self, it is so.

And Dang So-yeol’s feelings were clearly visible on the outside as much as Namgung-bia felt.

Dang So-yeol smiles slightly at Namgoong-bia’s words.

The smile that seemed bright was full of regret.

“… That’s right, it’s not that my sister was going to proceed with the engagement issue, but since she’s so handsome, she can like Gongja Gu too.”

“… uh?”

At that moment, thinking that she had heard something wrong, Bia Namgoong brushed her hair that was covering her ears. I think the first sentence was a bit odd.

“what’s the matter?”

“… no. anything.”

As there was no situation to say anything else to deny, Namgoongbia immediately gave up thinking.

“I should rather apologize to my sister… .”

Saying that, Dang So-yeol put the letter he had taken out back into his bosom.

“I’m sorry, but I won’t back down on what I suggested to Gongja Gu.”

Accompanying to Yongbong branch. I don’t know what kind of answer Gu Yangchun will give, but even when it comes to this situation, Tang Xiaoyeol will not give up.

It is not a promise to take away Guyangcheon from Namgungbia now.

Dang Xiaoyeol could not let go of Yangchun even after hearing about the change of Namgoongbia. It was to the point where I wanted to stay by her side for a while.

ruined.

That’s what Dang Soyeol is thinking right now.

‘This is why they said that handsome people shouldn’t be around because they value their faces.’

If you stay by my side for a while, wouldn’t it be that I get tired of your personality being like a piece of shit?

It looks small, but I feel like I won’t get tired of that proud face until I die.

“… Confucius Gu may refuse, but if he goes to the Yongfeng Branch…”

“… it’s okay.”

“yes?”

When Namgoongbia answered casually, Dang Soyeol was taken aback.

Even Namgoongbia had a grave expression. That’s the face of what the hell is the problem.

Usually, I think they don’t like it or feel anxious, but Namgoongbia says it’s natural.

“I also… I am going.”

“… What, sister?”

Namgungbia is a person who has never attended the Yongbong Branch.

Not only did he not come out of Sega often, and his relationship with Dang So-yeol was actually close to a coincidence of many things.

Even more, Namgoongbia must have hated crowded places and people who clung to her.

“Sister, if you meet Yongbongji… .”

It was obvious without looking.

It is a place where the late exponents of each region gather.

It was a place where all the well-to-do men and women gathered before competing to see who would be the star of this era.

Dang So-yeol also gets a lot of flirting every time, but what if Namgoong-bia goes?

Since Namgoongbia did not enjoy such stares, Dang Soyeol was surprised that she said that she would go without incident.

“it’s okay.”

It was dumb. It’s a really nonchalant look.

Namgoongbia tells Dang Soyeol.

“He is leaving.”

This is where Guyangcheon goes. so it’s okay

For Namgoongbia, that small reason was enough.

After that, there were several awkward conversations.

There were many things we wanted to say to each other, but we didn’t bring it out.

Namgoongbia finished the conversation and came out.

Outside, Gu Yangchen stood still and waited. It looks like you’re looking at something slightly.

It was very insignificant to see the fierce eyes looking around funnyly.

Suddenly, I remembered what Dang So-yeol said.

‘He’s handsome… I did.’

Maybe your eyes are weird? I did not agree with Dang So-yeol’s words that much.

As they were arguing about their features one by one, Gu Yangchen found Namgoongbia.

He frowned, wondering what he was talking about.

Seeing that strange expression, Namgoong-Bia laughed lightly.

“what? Why are you smiling at people’s faces?”

“… anything.”

He quickly returned his expression. It was what Namgoongbia did best.

“Dang Sojeo.”

“Afterwards… . He said he would come back to talk.”

“So, are you saying we should just go now?”

“yes.”

Actually, I didn’t say anything like that. Those were the words he spat out when he saw Yangchun Gu who was about to enter the room again.

‘Why did you lie?’

Why?

I just didn’t want to send Yangchun back to the room for a moment.

Gu Yangchun put on a questionable expression, but Namgoongbia grabbed the sleeve and pulled it.

“hungry… .”

“What’s wrong, you shared dumplings earlier.”

“…”

hit.

I remembered eating dumplings at the carriage on the way back. Actually, I wasn’t that hungry. But this was the only word that immediately came to mind.

“ship… Hungry.”

“… I get it. What can I eat? Can we really just go?”

“yes.”

Gu Yang-cheon, who does not know Namgoong-bia’s intentions, trusts her words and moves on.

I didn’t know anything else about Guyangcheon, but when I was hungry, I showed the appearance of trying to take care of rice.

-There are other things, but being hungry is the worst thing.

If it was Guyangcheon, there would have been no starvation anywhere, but Namgoongbia didn’t know why she was able to say that.

Looking at the back of Gu Yang-cheon, who was walking quietly, Bia Namgung hurriedly approached him.

“What to eat, what to eat?”

“… anything… ?”

“You know that answer annoys me the most?”

We walk next to each other and talk casually. This insignificant thing must be what Namgoongbia desperately wants.

******************

Inside the Gu family’s room, Gu Chul-wun was facing the swordsman.

“You must have been tired today, but you said you could rest, but how did you come to visit me?”

Geomhu said that he would stay at Gu Ryeong-hwa’s lodging.

When considering the relationship between the two, Gu Cheol-woon also agreed, judging that there would be no problem.

“There were so many things I wanted to ask, so it was hard to sit still.”

“Because I want to ask… The swordsman told me.”

“Yeah.”

Goo Cheol-woon scanned the sword with a ferocious gaze. It was a very different atmosphere from when we met a few years ago.

‘Looks like the treatment was successful.’

At that time, Gu Cheol-woon knew right away that the sword was slowly being destroyed.

Seeing that, Goo Cheol-woon opened his mouth.

“I’m glad you feel better… .”

“lender.”

Gu Cheol-woon’s eyebrows furrowed at the words that Geomhu interrupted.

From Koo Cheol-woon’s point of view, it was a word he hadn’t heard in decades. Goo Cheol-woon spoke to the swordsman in a growling voice.

“Swordsman, what are you doing now?”

“There is something I want to ask you.”

“I want you to correct the title, are you saying that you will come back and get wet at least in memories?”

“Is there any reason not to?”

“It’s all over, it’s all forgotten.”

Geomhu laughs at Gu Cheol-woon’s firm words.

“From my point of view, it seems that Daeju has not forgotten anything. Isn’t the proof that the former head lord is living in the Gu family?”

“…”

Swordsman immediately recognized Swordsman. The swordsman must also know that.

But I didn’t show off. He knew that Geomjon, not anyone else, wanted this, so he showed minimal consideration.

Geomhu says while looking at Gu Cheol-un.

“When he entrusted Lyeong-hwa, he told me not to ask about Chun-hee as a condition. I intend to keep that promise.”

“Then what now?”

“Then, how about the Demonic Realm?”

“… After the sword!”

“Decades later, but I still remember.”

Despite Goo Cheol-woon’s shouting, Geomhu didn’t frown. It just gets colder and colder.

“So I wanted to come all the way here and ask the Daeju.”

Geomhu asked while looking into Goo Cheol-woon’s ferocious eyes.

“Daeju, no, what the hell did you go through in the Demonic Realm?”

In the end, at the swordsman’s question, flames soared from Gu Cheol-woon’s body.
