人妻被邻居睡中文字幕

Chapter 171



A stillness descended around them .

“... Are you saying Shinhae might not be my daughter?”

“Yes . ”

Jimin gave an immediate reply .

“In truth, it is a possibility if we think about your ex-wife, isn’t it?”

Kwah-dook!

Jiyoon jumped in her seat .

The wooden armrest of the sofa was crushed by Sungyoon’s grip . However, Jimin didn’t even blink .

It was clear that this was a highly volatile situation . Sungyoon glared at Jimin, but Jimin looked right back at him . Jiyoon, who was stuck in the middle, was anxious . She didn’t know what to do .

“... I know you’ve been very good to me and my daughter . However, I believe you’ve overstepped your bounds . ”

“I know . But this is for Mr . Sungyoon and Shinhae’s sake . ”

Silence descended once again . However, the worst-case scenario didn’t happen .

“Hoo . I would like to hear what you are thinking about, President . ”

Sungyoon relaxed his hands as he spoke . Jimin had always helped him so he decided to trust her one more time .

“Thank you . I hope you don’t misunderstand my intentions . I’ll never try to separate Mr . Sungyoon from Shinhae . In fact, my goal is the opposite . I want Mr . Sungyoon and Shinhae to live together in happiness . That is what I want . ”

Jimin took a small sip of her coffee to wet her lips .

“Also, I know you don’t care if Shinhae is your biological daughter or not . Am I right?”

“Yes . ”

Sungyoon did have this thought before . He knew Shinhae might not be his biological daughter as he was betrayed by his ex-wife after all .

However, it didn’t matter if Shinhae was his biological daughter or not . It wasn’t important to him . Whatever the case was, Shinhae was his treasure . It would always remain the same .

“You were able to live your life with your adorable daughter until now . You just want a happy life for both of you, but things are different now . ”

“... I see . I get where you’re going with this . ”

Sungyoon understood the implication within Jimin’s words .

He was famous now, and the fact that he had a lot of money was common knowledge .

The worst possible face flashed through his mind .

“Lee Miyun... . ”

“Yes . Your ex-wife might try to come back into your life again . ”

A torrent of anger and hate boiled up inside his heart . Sungyoon once again pushed those emotions back down into the depths of his heart .

If he wanted to protect Shinhae, he couldn’t be hot-headed . He needed a cold and logical approach .

“If she does that, her goal will be your money . ”

“That’ll be the case nine out of ten times . The problem remains that she knows Shinhae is your biggest weakness . She is also the one capable of using this information against you in the most effective way . She’ll probably do the same thing as before and threaten Mr . Sungyoon by taking Shinhae hostage . ”

“... It certainly sounds like a plausible threat . ”

As long as Sungyoon was next to Shinhae, he would never let Miyun approach either of them . However, he had to go to the Moon .

The fact that Miyun had acted in a rotten manner to induce the divorce wasn’t known to the outside world . Everyone else had thought that it had been an amicable divorce . So Sungyoon had no grounds to completely stop Miyun from meeting Shinhae .

“... Do you have some kind of a plan?”

“I’m not asking you to take a DNA test because my plan hinges on it . However, the way I will deal with this problem changes depending on the result of the test . ”

“It seems you do have a plan . ”

When it came to his daughter, Sungyoon could move heaven and earth . He was willing to do terrible things . He was ready to do the worst . However, it seemed Jimin had a plan, so he decided to put such thoughts away for now .

“Alright . You just need my hair and Shinhae’s hair, right?”

“Yes . I need to borrow your name too . ”

“Understood . If we are going to do this, let’s do it as soon as possible . I’ll bring everything tomorrow . ”

“I’ll make sure to finish all the preparations by then . ”

Their business was done now .

“I’ll be heading out now . ”

After this serious conversation, Sungyoon really wanted to see Shinhae .

“Mr . Sungyoon . ”

He was about to leave when Jimin called out to him .

It seemed she had more to say .

There was a chance that his most precious treasure might be threatened by an unknown source . So Sungyoon once again became tense as he turned to look at Jimin .

“This is the last thing I want to confirm . Do you mind me using every possible means to protect Shinhae?”

With a cold expression, Sungyoon spoke .

“Not at all . ”

“I needed to hear those words . ”

Jimin let out a beautiful smile . Jiyoon, who had witnessed the exchange, gulped . Jimin was a very good boss to her, and Sungyoon was a good person . However, currently, they looked very scary .

“Ah . One more thing . . . ”

Jimin raised her hand . Did she have something important she wanted to discuss further? Sungyoon focused on her words .

Jimin pointed at the sofa where Sungyoon had been sitting .

“Since you destroyed it, I’ll buy a new one out of your pay . ”

“... Please do that . ”

Sungyoon had no choice but to answer in a sheepish manner .

***

After Jiyoon left, Jimin once again sat in front of her desk .

‘Most of the preparation for my plan is done . ’

She had received consent from Sungyoon, and she had told Jiyoon what was going on . As Jimin had expected, Jiyoon cried as she promised to help Shinhae any way she could .

‘I feel bad for using Ms . Jiyoon like this . . . ’

It was as she had said to Sungyoon earlier . She would accomplish her goals by any means necessary .

As an apology, she would make sure to set up a date between Sungyoon and Jiyoon at a later date . Jimin then took out a folder from the drawer . She had secretly investigated that woman, and she was looking at the report .

As Jimin looked through the files she found a picture stuck to the front page . The main subject of this investigation was Miyun .

Although Jimin had brought up the topic of Miyun to Sungyoon just day, she had already been working on it from the background for a while . She looked down coldly at the picture .

‘Lee Miyun... . ’

That woman had betrayed Sungyoon, and she had wounded Shinhae . Before, Lee Miyun had only been an unpleasant existence to Jimin . However, it was different now .

‘She should know her place . I will leave her alone if she never approaches Mr . Sungyoon and Shinhae . But if she once again approaches them to do something despicable again . . . !’

Jimin’s eyes turned cold . For a long time, she glared at Miyun’s picture . Then, she closed the folder and leaned back in her chair as she looked up at the ceiling .

[I’m still speaking as a father of a child . I would feel proud of having such a daughter like you . It would be proof that my daughter loved me very much . It would be proof that my daughter viewed me as an excellent, wonderful, and loving father . I would know she loved me . ]

Sungyoon’s words appeared in Jimin’s mind again, and her heart started beating faster . She let out a small sigh as she placed a hand over her chest .

She would never hand over Shinhae and Sungyoon to that woman .

‘I’ll never allow that woman to do as she likes . ’

A coldness appeared in Jimin’s eyes .

***

Sungyoon was the hero who had defeated the Behemoth and saved the people of London . However, his life hadn’t changed too much .

He planned on having fun with Shinhae until the Mana Stream in his labyrinth ended and then go to the Moon .

However, his plan was completely destroyed on that day .

“How is it looking on your side?”

Sungyoon had his handphone pressed against his ear as he asked the question . A deep voice came through the handphone .

- It’s too early to tell . The difference in opinions is too large .

Tim replied, and the frustration in his voice was clear . He wore his emotions on his sleeve .

- How about you, Mr . Sungyoon?

“Everything was fine when I talked to Ms . Grace . It seems the Korean government is taking my wishes into consideration since I’ve gained renown and fame in the battle in London .

- I’m envious of you . Anyway, we told the government that we are party members with Ms . Grace and Mr . Sungyoon . I think they will show some leeway considering our relationship with both of you . However, I do not think we can perfectly lineup our schedule with yours .

The high ranked Connectors of Earth had to be on standby .

When the Behemoth rampaged in London, every country made plans regarding the possibility of monsters appearing in their country .

Each country was searching their lands to check if any place was starting to emit magical energy . They wanted to be prepared so that they could defeat any unexpected monsters . One of the contingency plans was to put high rank Connectors always on standby . Of course, the countries couldn’t give up on acquiring moonstones, so they decided to schedule and rotate the duties of Connectors .

The problem was the order of the schedule . There were multiple Connectors in a party, and the Mana Stream period differed for each labyrinth . Therefore, it was very hard to come up with the perfect schedule . The process had become complex .

Of course, Grace was the granddaughter of the Queen, and she was one of the two heroes who had saved London . So her government listened to whatever she had to say .

As for Sungyoon, he had acquired great fame when he saved London, and it had brought great prestige to his country . That was why the Korean government tried to accommodate his requests as much as possible . However, the Ross siblings didn’t get to enjoy such privileges .

“It can’t be helped . Please contact me when you get some concrete news . We’ll discuss our plans further when that happens . ”

- Understood .

Sungyoon ended his call .

‘We won’t be able to go into our labyrinth for a while . ’

Sungyoon tossed his handphone, and he rubbed at his eyes .

If the Ross sibling arrived late, he couldn’t go deep into his labyrinth . He would have to hunt with Grace as his only companion .

However, Grace recently had a bad experience in a labyrinth, so it was a bit iffy going into his labyrinth with just the two of them .

His handphone rang at that moment .

‘Is it Mr . Tim?’

Did he forget to say something?

Sungyoon answered the phone, but he was greeted by someone totally unexpected .

- Sup, Mr . Hero . How are you doing?

Sungyoon heard an energetic and confident voice . He didn’t hide his surprise as he answered .

“What drove you to make this phone call, Mr . Hyunwoo?”

Sung Hyunwoo was on the other line of the phone .

- I saw you make the headlines . I wanted to check on how you are doing, and also make an offer .

“An offer?”

Sungyoon heard a half-playful suggestion from across the phone .

- Are you interested in the Great Labyrinth?

***

It had been a while since he had been up here, but the Moon remained the same .

The air was stale, resources were scarce, and everything was expensive .

Moreover, he thought there were fewer people here now . People were still spooked about the incident where magical energy leaked out from Grace’s labyrinth .

However, Sungyoon couldn’t think about any of that right now . He stood in front of the wide open entrance to a cave .

“Why are you so tense?”

Hyunwoo slapped Sungyoon’s back hard and laughed . Sungyoon coughed

“You aren’t a rookie . You’re the hero of London . You shouldn’t show any outward signs of nervousness . ”

Sungyoon became very embarrassed when Hyunwoo spoke that way . Although, Hyunwoo had probably spoken that way because Sungyoon had reacted that way .

Still, it was true that Sungyoon’s popularity had spread far and wide . The Connectors near them kept glancing at him .

“Let’s go . You came up early for this . ”

Hyunwoo lightly pushed Sungyoon’s back . Sungyoon let out a sigh as he activated his Gems .

“Oh shit!”

The Connectors let out a sound of admiration . It seemed they were surprised when they saw Sungyoon’s Gems’ activation speed .

Sungyoon didn’t pay attention to the reactions . He and Hyunwoo slowly entered the Great Labyrinth .

The entrance to the Great Labyrinth looked the same as compared to the other labyrinths . However, Sungyoon could feel it .

Hwoooooooong!

Unlike the calm flow of magical energy within regular labyrinths, the magical energy here was like a fierce gale .

Sungyoon was greeted by a constant Mana Stream, which was the special characteristic of the Great Labyrinth .

“I can’t believe you made it to the Moon . ”

Sungyoon had been tense as he looked at his surroundings when Hyunwoo, who had been walking in front of him, spoke .

“I’m sure the government didn’t want you to leave the country . ”

“They really didn’t . ”

Sungyoon sounded annoyed as he mumbled .

The government had praised his actions as being very heroic . They had praised him for enhancing the national prestige of Korea, but they also didn’t want him to endanger himself anymore .

They only wanted one thing . They wanted him to have a lot of children .

“Of course, I turned down their recommendations . ”

“This is normal with 1st Gens . You can live a comfortable life . There are a lot of benefits that come with being a ‘stud’ . ”

Stud .

Even as everyone praised him, the government only wanted him to take on the role of being a stud .

“It’s not my problem . I don’t care if I’m a 1st Gen or not . My goal is to raid the Great Labyrinth . I won’t go along with their wishes . It’s also the reason why I came here first . I did so by leaving behind my party members . ”

The Ross siblings still hadn’t received their rotation schedule . And Grace had to act as the hero of her country and direct the recovery of London, so she was still on Earth .

Only Sungyoon had come up to the Moon .

He had taken advantage of Hyunwoo’s offer of taking him to a field trip to the Great Labyrinth .

It seemed Hyunwoo liked what he heard .

“Yes . That’s good! Even if you’re a 1st Gen, you have the right to decide your fate! I knew I liked you!”

Hyunwoo turned around .

“This is your first entry into the Great Labyrinth . It’s a historic moment . ”

First entry . It was an odd choice of word . Sungyoon had already entered the entrance, and he walked forward . The crazy fluctuation of magical energy was proof that he was in the Great Labyrinth .

Hyunwoo had turned to look at him, and a light appeared behind him . At first, Sungyoon thought it was the light that summoned monsters . However, he was wrong . It was too bright to be a monster summoning light .

Sungyoon went to the place illuminated by the bright light .

“This is . . . !”

He became surprised . No, he was shocked . He had known this information, but to see it for himself was something else . Sungyoon saw a large grassy plain that had green grass that reached his thighs . He could see a creek to the side too .

Clusters of trees formed a small forest . A warm light fell down on him .

It was a sight that shouldn’t exist below the surface of the Moon .

Hyunwoo looked at Sungyoon and spoke .

“Welcome to the Great Labyrinth . ”
