“Ho, ho, ho, do you know who gave this letter?”
When Ryu Seol-hwa asked with a red face, the child shook his head with a bright smile.
“I couldn’t see you because you were covering your face!”
“Who, who, you don’t know who it is?”
“Hehe. yes!”
Ryu Seol-hwa, who sighed as if disappointed in the child’s answer, added another question.
“Have you ever read what is written on this document?”
“I don’t know how to read?”
When Ryu Seol-hwa looked disappointed in that bright answer, the child added a word.
“ah! “The person who gave me that certificate said he wanted my sister to read it ‘by herself.’”
“Ha, well. “That would be polite.”
In response, Ryu Seol-hwa urgently folded the letter and put it in his sleeve.
It was too embarrassing to show this kind of love letter to others.
And after a while, Hong So-hee, who had gone out to help Mu-jin, returned to her side.
“So, Sohee. “Is it okay if I go back now?”
Hong So-hee looked at Ryu Seol-hwa with a blunt expression for a moment as she spat out the words with difficulty, her face red.
“yes. “We will do that.”
And only after a few seconds had passed, the word ‘permission’ fell from Hong So-hee’s mouth.

That evening.
Ryu Seol-hwa, who returned to his pavilion at the top of Cheonryu, looked at Hong So-hee with somewhat nervous eyes.
Even though the relationship between the young lady and the young lady was clearly quarrelsome.
“I-I’m sorry. By Hong.”
“I am okay.”
When Ryu Seol-hwa apologized in a somber tone, Hong So-hee responded in an inorganic tone.
Hong So-hee, who insincerely accepted Ryu Seol-hwa’s apology, added her words.
“One, it is not good for you to keep putting off your work like this.”
“B-but. This is what Hong said to do… … .”
“miss.”
Hong So-hee, the sister-in-law, immediately cut off Ryu Seol-hwa.
“I was merely offering an ‘opinion.’ If you take an active part in helping the senior citizen of Sanangju with his new business, he will definitely be happy. But the decision is entirely up to you.”
“Yes.”
As Ryu Seol-hwa shook his head with a depressed expression, Hong So-hee spoke with a gentle smile.
“This has to be practiced from the time it’s just me and you. When the senior citizen of the upper tier asked whose idea it was. If I accidentally express my opinion, the senior citizens of the upper management will be disappointed. “Those who stand above must give their share of the credit, even if they accept the offer of those below.”
At Hong So-hee’s words, which seemed reasonable at first glance, Ryu Seol-hwa nodded slightly.
Things have changed a bit recently, but her father, Ryu Ji-gwang, was a merchant who was crazy about work. And he was a ruthless person who advocated a merit-first principle.
As Hong So-hee said, if you say that you followed the words of Shi and Fei, you would definitely be disappointed even if the results were good.
Hong So-hee added something to her as she was organizing her thoughts.
“So next time, you’ll have to hold out a little longer than this time. The young lady is a lady of the Cheonryu Sangdan, one of the five greatest dans in the world. There is no need to worry about anyone. Even if the opponent is Shaolin.”
“B-but… … .”
Ryu Seol-hwa, who was about to say something, ended up lowering her head at Hong So-hee’s blunt expression.
Hong So-hee, who was looking at Ryu Seol-hwa for a moment, slowly approached her and stroked her hair.
“It’s just something you need to do in order to gain the approval of the elder of the upper tier. “Please give me a little strength.”
“huh.”
To Hong So-hee’s request, Ryu Seol-hwa responded firmly in his own way.
Ryu Seol-hwa was very afraid of Hong So-hee leaving him. Just like those she was with before her.
‘Yeah, yeah. I have to do well! Also, I can’t lose Hong Jeo like I did before with my wife and nannies.’
Her mother died giving birth to her, and her father was a merchant who was crazy about work.
The person who took care of Ryu Seol-hwa, who had been neglected without proper care from his mother and father, was his nanny who had raised him since childhood.
But the day Ryu Seol-hwa turned five years old. Ryu Ji-gwang replaced Ryu Seol-hwa’s nanny.
This was because, through a rumor spreading among the vassals living within the upper tier, I heard that Ryu Seol-hwa was too dependent on his nanny.
After that, the nanny and sire were constantly replaced every three to four years.
Ryu Seol-hwa locked the bar on his heart after seeing many times the people he depended on were driven out by their father.
However, Hong So-hee succeeded in breaking down her bar through active efforts.
The only problem was that about a year and a half had already passed since Hong So-hee took charge of her. She was destined to be replaced within a year and a half at the earliest, or three years at the latest.
That’s why Ryu Seol-hwa followed Hong So-hee’s words and wanted to be recognized by his father. If she is recognized by her father, then Hong So-hee will not be kicked out.
Take a moment to enjoy the touch of Hong So-hee, your father, mother, and teacher. Ryu Seol-hwa, who had something in his mind, asked in a shaky voice.
“Ho, Hong, what do you think it would be like if a guy who likes me shows up?”
She asked with a red face, remembering the letter she received a while ago. However, when Hong So-hee was asked that question, her face was cold.
“There is no doubt that he is approaching you with confidence in the young lady’s wealth and authority.”
“Yeah, right?”
When Ryu Seol-hwa lowered her head in disappointment at her firm words, Hong So-hee added.
“But I don’t think it’s bad.”
“Yes?”
“Originally, men fall in love with women simply by looking at their faces and bodies. So, approaching the young lady means you don’t care about them.”

That was truly a blatant statement. Because he meant that there would be a man who would approach her based on her looks.
“In other words, it means that he is a calculating man, not a stupid wolf who only looks at his appearance. And, for the young lady who has to lead the top, a man like that might be better suited.”
When Ryu Seol-hwa lowered her head at that blatant expression, Hong So-hee added a word.
“However, it is not necessarily the case that there are only such men. miss. There will be a man who sees your inner self and approaches you.”
“Look inside me… … ?”
“That’s right. However, unlike appearance or wealth, you have to spend a long time together to see the inside. “Just like me.”
“ah… … .”
“So, young lady, you need to develop the ability to distinguish whether you are approaching her based solely on her abilities, or whether you are approaching her by looking at her inner self like I did.”
Saying that, Hong So-hee hugged Ryu Seol-hwa affectionately.
* * *
Hong So-hee, who comforted Ryu Seol-hwa, left the palace after a while. Inwardly, she was laughing at the foolish Ryu Seol-hwa.
‘Foot. ‘Do you think you’ll ever find a man who truly loves you?’
Of course, it was also her fault that Ryu Seol-hwa gained this much weight.
It was the result of consistently feeding her sweet snacks over the past year and a half as she grew up receiving expectations and reprimands from all over the place as a young lady of the Five Great Grand Danes.
‘Maybe it’s because I grew up as a rich girl, but it’s really easy to play with.’
Hong So-hee She was originally nothing more than a lowly Sejak.
From the earliest she could remember, around the age of four or five, she had been receiving training as a sergeant in an unknown location.
It may seem like a very complicated and difficult education for young children, but the reality is even more cruel.
Children who could not keep up with their education were severely abused, and children who could not keep up after being abused lost their lives.
Those who regularly watched children their age being killed or abused had to be castrated as children.
Hong So-hee also grew up in such an environment as a three-year-old by the time she was about ten years old. She was given her first mission.
Entering the Cheonryu Sangdan disguised as a civil servant and collecting small information. Literally, it was a mission that seemed trivial, fit for a lowly senior citizen.
In other words, the security of Cheonryu Sangdan was that thorough. Unless they were people who had served at the top for over a dozen years from a young age, it was impossible to obtain important information.
For that reason, Hong So-hee worked as a civil servant for over ten years, taking on odd jobs starting when she was around ten years old.
Perhaps heaven had blessed her, but surprisingly, she was given the task of assisting Ryu Seol-hwa.
Hong So-hee saw this as an opportunity. It was decided to use Ryu Seolhwa. So, Hong So-hee did her best to open Ryu Seol-hwa’s heart.
And after over a year of hard work, she established herself as a close associate of Ryu Seol-hwa. No, it wasn’t enough to just be her close associate, he was able to control her to his heart’s content with just a word from her.
And recently. Another opportunity came to her.
‘The business of Shaolin and Cheonryu Sangdan. If I get as much information about that congressman as possible, my position will definitely rise.’
Shaolin, who had been acting alone on the mountain, suddenly joined hands with Cheonryu Sangdan. Although there was no information passed down to her, she knew it intuitively.
The fact that this incident is a factor that will hinder the cause of the group she belongs to.
As she walked with that thought in mind, she had already reached her destination.
As she entered the hall, an old man spoke to her in a blunt tone.
“You’re late today.”
“Something happened.”
With that said, Hong So-hee held out a letter written using their own encryption system.
“Is it about that place?”
“yes.”
Hong So-hee, who answered simply and clearly, bowed her head and was about to leave the palace. It was late at night, and if she delayed too long, she might arouse unnecessary suspicion.
However, as she was about to leave the room, the old man spoke to her.
“Have you been being too greedy lately?”
“It’s just for the greater good.”
Let’s have a strange snowball fight for just a moment.
“Stop and go.”
At the old man’s words, Hong So-hee bowed her head and walked out the door.
But as she bowed her head, she was internally losing her anger.
‘joy. ‘I guess the old man is afraid that his position will be taken away, right?’
Hong So-hee thought that the old man was jealous of her.
I was warning him about something as simple as tricking Taengjung and the foolish Ryu Seol-hwa, who had been giving Buddhist worship on the mountain all their lives.
* * *
Meanwhile, at that time.
An abandoned house located on the outskirts of Dengbong County.
“Hmm.”
There, Mujin was hiding with his body and face completely covered in black military uniform.
“First of all, it doesn’t seem to be Ryu Seol-hwa.”
She didn’t respond to the bait she put out there.
If so, there was a high possibility that she had not yet come into contact with the dark side.
“Then, this time it’s Hong So-hee’s car.”
Muttering that, Mujin began writing another letter.
* * *
A few days later.
Ryu Seol-hwa and Hong So-hee visited the doctor again.
For some reason, Ryu Seol-hwa stayed in the clinic for a considerably longer time than last time, even though he was sweating profusely.
“Would you like to go out together this time?”
Thanks to that, Mujin, who could not have much conversation with them because the treatment time overlapped, headed to the entrance of the clinic together after finishing the treatment.
At the entrance to the clinic, the elderly people welcomed Mujin, calling him a passive person.
Mujin approached them and gave them acupressure and taught them some simple exercises, and even secretly called out Ryu Seol-hwa.
“Would you like to join us today, Lord Seolhwa?”
Ryu Seol-hwa looked to the side with a worried expression for a moment, and as Hong So-hee shook her head, she approached Mujin.
And when Hong So-hee was watching the two men and women with fierce eyes.
“Pretty sister~!”
A little boy, different from the last time, who came and went here every day, led by his grandfather, approached her.
As soon as the kid noticed, he held out the sign to Hong So-hee, blocking it with his body so that it would be obscured from the gaze of the people around him.
Hong So-hee gently accepted the letter with a cool face. She then went down and read her words written on the letter.
“!!”
She tried to hide her surprised expression and hastily hid the letter in her sleeve.
