65 – Aftermath (6)

Prince Muhammad’s visit to Korea was all over, and Choi Do-jin went to the airport to see him off.

The two shook hands in front of Prince Muhammad’s private jet.

“Thank you for taking care of me during my visit to Korea.”

“No. I just did my duty to the person who visited as an honored guest. But you are leaving faster than originally scheduled.”

Approximately, a short period of 3 days. Originally scheduled to stay for a few more days, Prince Muhammad suddenly announced that he was returning to his home country.

“I have already served my purpose, so there is no reason for me to stay here any longer.”

At the words of Prince Muhammad that he had achieved his goal, Choi Do-jin instinctively swallowed his saliva.

Of course, he was in a position where he could not help but feel anxious.

In the first place, the purpose of Prince Muhammad’s visit to Korea was to meet the author of 927.

The writer of 927 also readily agreed to an interview with him, and only the two parties know what conversation took place at the dinner.

But…….

“Anyway, the author of 927 seemed to still love Korea a lot.”

“Yes? What is that…… “

At the words of Prince Muhammad, Choi Do-jin couldn’t help but put on a puzzled expression.

And Prince Muhammad naturally recalled a conversation he had with the writer of 927 a while ago.

Shaking hands with each other and becoming friends, they chatted a little more after that…….

“Can I ask you a question to commemorate our friendship?”

“What is it? You’re not talking about Saudi Arabia again, are you?”

“Your opinion is firm, so I have no intention of forcing it. Only… As a fan, I want to see your new work someday.”

What Prince Muhammad was curious about.

It was about the return of the 927 artist.

To be honest, there’s probably no one who won’t be curious about this. It is the same with Prince Muhammad of the world. That’s why I wanted to hear a little bit of what the person concerned thought.

“This is why I have been talking about my home country ever since. If you don’t like Korea, why not promote elsewhere?”

“Hmm? Do you hate Korea?”

“Don’t you hate Korea? I don’t think it would look very good if it were me.”

It is already a well-known fact that the author of 927 retired because of the excessive interest of the Korean people.

For that reason, even now, criticism and pointing fingers at them are pouring in from all over the world.

However, to Prince Muhammad’s question, the boy simply answered like this.

“It is true that I did something wrong, but I don’t think it is to the point of hating it.”

Of course, people can make at least one mistake. However, you don’t have to repeat it.

The boy clearly thought so.

The reason they showed excessive interest in the first place was because they had a lot of affection for their work.

And now that time has passed since the announcement of his retirement, he was showing his own self-reflection.

Of course, Prince Muhammad had a very dissatisfied expression on the boy’s innocent answer.

“…… You are too kind of a person. So it seems that you need to be a little brazen to match your reputation and status.”

“You still think you’re pretty brazen?”

“Perhaps it is only when talking to the person in front of you. I agree with that part, but I don’t think the action part at all.”

“…… What does that mean?”

“It means to do whatever you want without caring about anyone. You are the author of 927 and now a friend of the Saudi royal family.”

Something…….

The boy pondered for a while at Prince Muhammad’s words, which had many meanings.

Before long, the boy who finished organizing his thoughts slowly opened his mouth.

“Then, I’ll ask you one favor to commemorate our friendship.”

“Hmm? What is it?”

“Please see me off at the front door.”

Question appeared on Prince Muhammad’s face at the boy’s unexpected request.

“…… Sendoff?”

“Yes. Literally. It’s getting late now, so I’ll have to go home soon. Since we’re friends, can you send me off?”

Prince Muhammad was always in a position to be seen off by someone, not against it.

Moreover, who dares to ask the heir of Saudi Arabia to escort him to the front door?

So Prince Muhammad couldn’t help but laugh out loud at the boy’s bold request.

“Of course. On the contrary, I don’t think I have heard an answer from you yet.”

“Are you thinking of coming back?”

“Yes.”

At Prince Muhammad’s affirmation, the boy grinned for some reason.

And the boy went up to him and said:

That’s…….

“The Crown Prince?”

“Oops.”

At Choi Do-jin’s call, Prince Muhammad smiled bitterly.

“President. Let me say one last thing before I leave. 927 The author did not seem to have any intention of leaving Korea.”

A smile spreads across Choi Do-jin’s lips at the positive news delivered by Prince Muhammad.

Just.

“At least not yet.”

“Not yet… you mean?”

“Yes. So you’d better not let anything disappoint him any more. Otherwise, there will be no turning back then.”

Hearing Prince Muhammad’s warning words, Choi Do-jin made an incomprehensible expression.

“I have a question for you. Why are you telling me that? If the situation the Crown Prince described occurs, it would be the Crown Prince who would naturally benefit.”

“What… 927 I probably would have done that before I met the artist.”

“… Yes?”

Leaving those meaningful words to Choi Do-jin, Prince Muhammad boarded his private plane.

“Yura Lee… ….”

And remembering what Choi Do-jin had just said, Prince Muhammad pondered.

The reason why Prince Muhammad left such a warning to the Korean president was simply because he was concerned about his friend’s safety.

Everyone wants my friend to stay in Korea, but what can I do? It’s a bit reassuring to have insurance like being the president.

But I remembered a little regretful memory.

“No matter how close you are, you can’t tell that…… Was it?”

Prince Muhammad smiled shallowly as he recalled the image of his little friend who answered his question like that.

And Prince Muhammad, who did not hear the answer he wanted, added this just in case.

-That sounds like someone has already been informed about the return.

-No, that’s true, but……. Where the hell do you know that?

-If you can’t tell me even though we’re friends, that’s the word. Doesn’t that mean you can tell people who are more than just friends?

After those words.

As he watched the boy’s reaction, Prince Muhammad’s eyes widened in an instant.

The boy in front of me is shameless and clever when it comes to talking. As I said before, Prince Muhammad also agreed to this part.

From noble mtl dot com

So Prince Muhammad couldn’t understand the boy’s expression.

Embarrassed.

A boy who did not show a disorganized sign even against himself, the heir of Saudi Arabia.

It was because the boy, who had been like that until just now, was showing a puzzled expression for the first time.

Before you ask that question…….

‘I expected it for my family.’

Recalling my friend’s bewildered reaction, it seemed that it was probably not him.

Then all that’s left is……

“Seo, Eun, Woo.”

“What a surprise!”

Suddenly, Seo Eun-woo was startled by the sweet female voice tickling his ears.

“Seo, Seol So-yeong?”

“Hello? It was a surprise morning greeting today.”

Seol So-young whispered his name.

As if enjoying his bewildered reaction, Seol So-yeong smiled shallowly. She said good morning and as she always did, she sat down next to him.

But it didn’t end there.

Seol So-young, who was sitting in her seat, kept staring at Seo Eun-woo for some reason.

Seo Eun-wu, who naturally noticed her, had no choice but to carefully ask her why.

“What’s wrong?”

“Just… …. I want to make sure I haven’t forgotten something.”

“Did you forget?”

Seo Eun-woo pondered whether she had forgotten anything, just as she said.

I didn’t have any homework on the weekend, and I didn’t have anything to prepare. Not to mention, he was still in the middle of the semester, so he wasn’t taking a paper test, and Mu-sik Cha, who would have slept in late today if it weren’t for me, somehow managed to take good care of him and send him to school…… ?

Ah.

Could this be it?

“That… hi?”

“Yes!”

When Seo Eun-woo greets her late in the morning, Seol So-yeong happily accepts it with a smile.

Seol So-yeong’s pretty face.

Seeing it from such a close distance is a fatal blow, but it also takes an innocent smile like now?

…… How could any man in the world not fall for it?

Of course, the same applies to the same man, Seo Eun-woo, and that’s why Seo Eun-woo also looked at Seol So-yeong’s face in a moment of fascination.

However, I was able to come to my senses immediately because I felt a certain sense of incongruity.

Certainly, Seol So-yeong’s attitude towards herself has been strange lately.

Yes. If I had to put it in one word……

‘Hey, he sure wasn’t like this character?’

Seol So-yeong, who treats men so friendly? It’s a look that’s hard to imagine for him who saw the original.

And Seo Eun-woo wasn’t the only one who felt that sense of incongruity.

“Hmm… Suspicious.”

The back seat of the 2nd Division, which is widely spaced from them.

Lee Da-hye, who was sitting there, was also looking at them with her meaningful eyes.
