“Oh, brother! good morning.”

It’s almost 9:00 AM.

When Kang Ho-yeon opened the gate and came out of the house, Jo Won-ho, who was waiting in the car, greeted her by lowering the passenger seat window.

“What, why are you here so early?”

“Originally, hyung-nim came out quickly every time, wasn’t he waiting for you? So this time I played some players. Isn’t it the same that you came out early too?”

It was about 10 minutes earlier than the time we were supposed to meet.

Kang Ho-yeon shrugged her shoulders once, and naturally climbed into the passenger seat and fastened her belt. Click, the sound of the belt being fastened. Before long, Jo Won-ho’s jeep began to pass through the narrow alley.

“By the way, that’s good, brother.”

“what?”

“I mean the store. envious.”

After taking a big right turn and joining the road, Jo Won-ho opened his mouth insinuatingly.

“What… Thanks to Taehan.”

“So. Keu~ I always get a gift like that from our Hanbit!”

The reason the two went together today was to look for seats in the store. It was because Kang Tae-han’s last words to his father were not empty words.

“He said he was investing in me.”

“That’s because my older brother keeps refusing. Oh, would you like some coffee?”

While the signal stopped for a while, Jo Won-ho said while lifting the coffee cup inserted in the holder behind the gear. Kang Ho-yeon accepted it with a shy face.

“Heh heh, really. Even coffee like this.”

“I’m living with you while I’m buying mine.”

“I’ll have a good drink.”

Iced Americano with cold water.

Kang Ho-yeon thanked him and bit the straw into his mouth. Drinking a sip of coffee while breathing in the wind blowing in the car, the taste was quite special.

“Is that the place you were talking about?”

“That’s right, there’s a large parking lot over there.”

In the meantime, when Jo Won-ho pointed to one side and said, Kang Ho-yeon nodded. Originally, it was a place Kang Ho-yeon had in mind as a possible place to move the store.

“I guess everyone’s eyes look the same.”

Originally, it was one of the few duck houses in the area that had good business, but the duck house went out and the other stores that opened went out of business three times in a row.

However, it was just that the skills of those stores were poor. Considering the surrounding commercial district and traffic, the wide space of the store, and the existence of a public parking lot nearby, it was by no means a bad seat.

It was the place Ho-yeon Kang had in mind because he thought that the price must have gone down a lot due to the closure of the year-end business… … .

“They said that, of course, I went out three days before I went to visit the real estate. The rental banner has been hanging for almost two months.”

It seems that he wasn’t the only one who was doing that, but someone else had already signed a contract before that. Kang Ho-yeon bit into the straw with a look of regret.

“Well, we can find a better seat today.”

“Well, thanks to President Cho, I feel reassured.”

Kang Ho-yeon lightly nodded at Jo Won-ho’s confident voice. Although Cho Won-ho had no experience in the restaurant business, he was popular and often made big deals, so he had many real estate agents he knew.

“Actually, I got a call from my older brother and asked him a little… There seems to be a good seat on the Yuseong-gu side.”

Besides, I’ve already taken a sneak peek at it.

At Cho Won-ho’s words, Kang Ho-yeon let out a smile.

“So you were going this way?”

“Yeah, looking at it, the seats are really good. I thought it would be nice to have a look at it.”

Jo Won-ho said with a shy expression.

“Looking at these days, what is that? Since there are a lot of young people on SNS like that, I don’t think it would be bad to go to Yuseong-gu rather than Dong-gu.”

It is not that the Dong-gu side of the commercial district is bad, but it is also true that it has a relatively strong feel of the old downtown area.

Considering that the customer base that visits the store has changed these days, it is judged that it would be more desirable to move to a place with a relatively low age group that makes up the commercial district.

“Um… But I mean.”

There is a point in that statement. At Jo Won-ho’s words, Kang Ho-yeon thought for a moment… He swallowed his saliva, then shook his head slightly.

“I told President Cho, but my store has been struggling for a long time. The location is also good, but my shoulder was really bad.”

Because of this, not only was it not possible to simply hand-tap noodles, but it was inevitable that cooking itself would be hindered in many ways. Because Chinese cuisine requires a lot of energy.

“But the reason I was able to endure until now was because I had regular customers who came to me when I was having a hard time.”

Even if they weren’t close friends like Mr. Kim and Mr. Choi, there were quite a few customers who stopped by every once in a while to sell a bowl of jajangmyeon or a bowl of jjamppong.

I don’t think there’s anywhere that tastes as old as here.

It wasn’t crowded with customers like these days, but the reason Kang Ho-yeon was keeping the store was because there were customers who remembered her taste and came to visit.

“… That being said, I also like the surrounding neighborhoods not too far from our store.”

Kang Ho-yeon said while scanning the bottom of her nose with a shy face. Although the words were slightly embarrassing, there was sincerity in his voice.

“I am grateful to the new customers, but the customers who came to me when I was having a hard time are also important. I don’t want to leave alone because my main customer base has changed.”

“… Is that so.”

At those words, Jo Won-ho slowly nodded.

Had I been concentrating on driving quietly for a while?

“Keuuu~ I was a little moved, bro.”

Going back on the way to the U-turn, Jo Won-ho exclaimed with admiration.

“I almost thought it was a touching documentary closing remark.”

“Even if you don’t tease me like that, it’s unfamiliar enough, so stop.”

“Oh, I’m not kidding, I’m serious.”

There is a mixture of laughter, but a serious atmosphere.

In response to Jo Won-ho’s answer, Kang Ho-yeon turned her gaze toward the window. Even if it’s real, it’s strange because it’s true.

“Anyway, what… I think the neighborhood would be nice.”

“I understand, brother. There’s a younger brother I know around here, so let’s go there first.”

Jo Won-ho smiled and turned the steering wheel slowly.

“OMG… It was really good.”

The Cheonma Massage party arrived at the terminal after getting off the private plane.

Choi Seong-hyun stretched lightly and spoke briefly and plainly of his impressions of the flight he had just had.

“The chair was more comfortable than I thought.”

“So. And the in-flight meal was delicious.”

When Seonghun Kim, who was walking next to him, said something, Seonghyun Choi nodded vigorously.

A private plane operated by Marchesi personally.

If necessary, we have arranged quite a few seats so that all the club players can move at once. That’s why it’s a little far from luxury or extravagance, but… … .

Still, there was a huge difference compared to the economy class of the airlines that I use in general. Even if you look at it objectively, it was slightly higher than the business class.

“I don’t know, but I think the wine I drank for the flight meal earlier is probably the most expensive wine I’ve ever tasted.”

“The steak that came out as a meal was also very good… It was almost a public restaurant.”

Let one person speak first, and the impressions start to come out one by one. Each of them said something different, but they had one thing in common: it was a really special experience.

“Where can I get this luggage?”

“That’s right, they are moved to the dorm separately.”

Chief Hwang asks the staff accompanying him because he can’t see the baggage claim area. Then the employee smiled and said as if it was natural.

“Because all the customers on the plane are customers of our company.”

“ah… That’s right.”

At his words, Chief Hwang nodded.

Originally, each passenger would go their own way to find their luggage, but this was unnecessary as it continued from the starting point to the destination and the lodging.

“If you have any items in your luggage that you need right away, should I tell you to put them aside?”

“… No, not like that.”

Chief Hwang scratched his head with an embarrassed expression.

When I got out of the airport like that, there was a bus waiting at the exit. It feels like flowing water.

Then, after getting on the bus and looking around the surroundings for a while, I began to see a nice resort and hotel built on the foot of the mountain before I knew it.

“Is it a golf course… … .”

“Wow, that’s really good!”

An exotic feeling that I don’t know why I feel everywhere in the landscape. At the same time, it seemed that they began to realize that they had come to play far away, and as the hotel got closer, the atmosphere of the party gradually began to rise.

“Come on. welcome.”

Eventually, the bus arrives and we enter the lobby of the hotel.

Bellboys in purple suits, hats and even white gloves greeted them, and each began to pick up the luggage they were carrying.

It’s like a scene you’ve seen in a movie.

In addition, the ceiling of the lobby was so high that it seemed to be three stories high, and there was a grandeur that could be felt just by looking around.

“Wow… … .”

At the slightly unrealistic scene, the party could only let out a bewildered exclamation with their mouths open.

“From here on, maybe the hotel will guide you.”

Meanwhile, Darby, an Indian employee who had accompanied him all the way from Korea, quietly said goodbye to Kang Tae-han after completing his role.

“Then, please have a good rest.”

“Thank you for coming all the way here, Darby.”

“haha. It was my job, what?”

When Kang Tae-han thanked him, Darby smiled, shook his hand, and got back on the bus.

* * *

After arriving at the hotel, we were guided to our respective rooms.

It would have been a lie if I said there was no tension, but the party was adapting faster than expected and spending their time together.

Some started walking along the promenade managed by the resort and looked around, while others signed up for a Liverpool sightseeing tour and took the bus back to the city.

“Wow!”

And the rest go straight to the pool we saw when we entered.

Although there was a chilly wind blowing because it was outdoors and the time was right, the inside was filled with lukewarm hot water, adding to the luxurious feeling.

“Uhahaha, the real director is the best!”

One of the masseuses, who had just jumped into the pool, washed up his face and burst into laughter. Just in time, there were no guests other than the party, so it felt like paying a charter.

Meanwhile, while the employees are spending their time.

“Mr. Kang! ha ha ha! Please sit down.”

Kang Tae-han had a one-on-one meeting with the owner of the resort, Tarvin Marchesi, who had invited him.

“Thank you very much for accepting this invitation.”

“I really appreciate it.”

Two people exchanging light greetings.

Kang Tae-han put his clenched hands on the table and smiled.

“Because you took care so that not only me but everyone could come together like this.”

“Whoops. From the beginning, it was planned on the premise that the teacher’s family and friends would come together. Never mind.”

Marchesi shook his hand as if it were natural, then pointed to the teapot prepared on the table and asked insinuatingly.

“Would you like a cup of tea?”

“Thank you.”

Marchesi pours tea with a smile.

Kang Tae-han was handed a teacup and slowly brought it to his lips. It must have been brewed by a skilled person, from the color of the tea to the warmth felt through the cup and the subtle fragrance, it was a pretty good cup.

‘Good.’

Kang Tae-han took a sip like that.

He involuntarily smiled contentedly from behind the teacup. However, that was not my impression of the car.

‘It’s worth studying English.’

Naturally, Marchesi spoke in English and Kang Tae-han also replied in English.

A conversation that flowed naturally. I can’t say I was perfect like a native speaker, but I could still say that I had a very smooth conversation.

After lightly congratulating himself, Taehan Kang lowered the corner of his mouth that had risen slightly and set the teacup he was holding down on the table.

“Come to think of it, when are the players planning to come?”

At the same time, Kang Tae-han quietly raised a topic. Out of consideration for the other person, he deliberately brought out the topic that the other person was most concerned about.

“Ah, I was thinking about when I should tell you. In fact, there was a game yesterday. Until today, it is a period for each of us to take a break.”

Marchesi said with a bright expression.

“So, for now, it is supposed to come tomorrow. So, have a good rest for today. If you need anything, we will do our best to accommodate you.”

He added, pointing at the ceiling with his finger.

“Because I can call a helicopter.”

“… I appreciate your words, but I don’t think I’ll be using a helicopter.”

At the scale of convenience, Kang Tae-han unknowingly laughed and waved his hand lightly.

“… me, but.”

When the conversation ended like that, and a moment of quiet time passed by. Marchesi, who had been watching Kang Tae-han for a while, cautiously opened her mouth.

“Mr. Kang. This may be rude, but could you please take a look at me?”

“What if I look at you?”

“Yes, of course! A massage.”

Until just now, the atmosphere was like a serious businessman, but the tone of his voice had changed slightly before he knew it. Is it a feeling full of anticipation and excitement?

“… Hmm.”

Kang Tae-han looked at Marchesi’s face for a moment.

The purpose of examining its intention. However, there was nothing special about his face, only pure curiosity.

‘He’s an interesting person.’

But if you ask me if it’s appropriate to try to get a massage just out of curiosity, it wasn’t… It was true that there were parts that seemed inconvenient.

“Then, let’s take a quick look.”

After Kang Tae-han emptied his teacup, he stood up from his seat and said,

“Please wake up.”

“Oh, can I just get up?”

Accordingly, Marchesh rises obediently.

Kang Tae-han turned around the table and went behind him, grabbed his left shoulder and pushed his waist forward.

“From here first.”

Pudeudeuk!

A strange sound echoing lightly from the body.

“Wow?!”

A sound you’ve never heard before.

In a situation where that was also coming from his waist, Marchesi freaked out and pulled out his upper body. No, I was trying to get it out.

‘Aren’t you moving?’

Kang Tae-han’s left hand holding his shoulder.

Even though he was holding on, he was only holding on lightly and loosely, but his upper body was strangely firmly fixed.

“and… You can even see the slightest hint of a turtle neck.”

Next, the right hand lightly squeezed the neck.

Ugge extreme!

This time, at the sound echoing right below his head, Marchesi slowly raised his hands without realizing it. It meant surrender.
