My brother is an Idol

Chapter 97

“But?”

When Hyoyoung asked, Kiwook pointed at his eyes and replied, “This idiot’s eyes are continuing to swell up…”

“Oh, right! Hyojun Oppa said there is an emergency kit in the car.”

“H, Hyojun said that?”

“Yeah. When he came into the house, he told me that… and that the key is still in the car so I should bring it to him.”

“I see.”

“Hyojun Oppa grumbles a lot, but he cares a lot too.”

“I know, and that is why I feel even worse.”

“Let’s put some medicine on you and go inside. You need to wash up to clean the wounds, and I will reapply the cream again.”

“No, I need to get going.”

“Go… where?”

“I came here because I wanted to make things right. And I did, sort of, by getting beaten up so I now need to get going.”

“Oh my god, you are so stupid! Do you know how awful you look right now?”

“Hyoyoung, don’t worry about me. I am really happy right now.”

“Are you a sadist? You are happy because you got beaten?”

“Hmm… is that right? I need to think about this. Explore it maybe…”

“Gosh, you are crazy!”

“No, I’m serious. I was so afraid of losing you… that was the only thing I was worried about.”

“…”

“I was so fearful that you might ignore me. I was afraid that as soon as you saw me, you would just walk away from me.”

“Why would you worry about something so stupid?”

“I thought… that I would prefer to get beaten if it gave me a chance to be with you again.”

“And you thought I would beat you up?”

“Hahaha, when I saw the way you looked at me… that was enough to make everything okay.”

“…”

“And we just kissed… I feel like I was given the greatest gift and a bonus too. So I’m fine, Hyoyoung, you go in. I think for now it is best for me to go away. I don’t want to, but…”

“Alright. Then come in just for dinner.”

“No, I can eat later. When things work out, we will go to eat at the best restaurants.”

“Okay, we definitely will.”

“Go in, then. Hyojun is probably getting angrier and angrier.”

“Ok. Please call me later, Oppa.”

“I will.”

Hyoyoung waved at him sadly and walked into the house. Kiwook watched for a little while before running to her and hugging her from behind.

He whispered, “I love you, Hyoyoung Ahn.”

He squeezed her tight and Hyoyoung could feel his heartbeat against her back. She could feel his breath against her ear.

She whispered back, “Me too.”

It felt like every cell in her body was alive. Kiwook kissed her cheek soundly before letting her go.

“Okay, now you can go in.”

“Be careful out there.”

Kiwook smiled and waved, but when he noticed Hyojun glaring at him from the house through the window, he dropped his hand. Hyojun closed the curtain coldly.

Kiwook walked away quietly. The fact that Hyojun didn’t run out to beat Kiwook again meant that Hyojun forgave him.

‘Sorry, Hyojun. And thank you.’

Meanwhile, Hyojun was thinking secretly, ‘I will always be there by Hyoyoung’s side as her older brother. Kiwook, you better watch out.’

It was a bad idea to watch them. When Hyoyoung went outside to Kiwook, Hyojun couldn’t help but spy on them. And it was then that he saw them kiss.

It wasn’t that he didn’t think about it, but seeing it for real was a whole different story.

Hyojun even imagined himself in Kiwook’s position.

Kissing Hyoyoung himself…

Just imagining it made him feel guilty. It was wrong, but he couldn’t help it.

He wanted to be with her. He wanted to be the one for her.

But… Kiwook was there by her side. Kiwook was the one Hyoyoung wanted.

The last bit of hope Hyojun secretly harbored was shattered. It was over.

Watching Hyoyoung clearly in love with Kiwook… Hyojun realized that this was the best thing he could do for Hyoyoung.

Kiwook knew this as well. When their eyes met through the window, Kiwook could tell what Hyojun was thinking, they were best friends after all.

And… Kiwook now knew exactly what he had to do.

After thinking for a few seconds, Kiwook made a call.

“We need to meet.”

Before the other party could respond, Kiwook added, “Let’s see who wins.”

“You call me to say we need to meet, then you hang up? What the hell?”

“Sorry, I was feeling impatient.”

“I get that, but you sounded like you were threatening me, Kiwook. That was unnecessary.”

“I’m sorry! I was feeling upset, Hyunsuk!”

“Fine, fine. By the way… what’s with your face?”

“Scars of a real man.”

“Hmm… you are talking fine, so I guess I don’t have to worry about you.”

Kiwook sat with Hyunsuk to chat. When Hyunsuk got Kiwook’s call, he was a bit worried because Kiwook sounded strange, but now that he saw him, Hyunsuk realized that everything was going to be okay. In fact, when Hyunsuk saw Kiwook’s face, he laughed.

“Any bones broken?”

“Nope, thank god.”

“Oh, Hyojun has mellowed out I guess.”

“I don’t think he gave me his blessing yet, but I think he sort of acknowledges my presence in Hyoyoung’s life.”

“What are you talking about?”

“He sent Hyoyoung out alone to take care of my wounds.”

“What? Are you serious? To run away with you?”

“Oh no, just to take care of my wounds…”

“Wow, even then… Hyojun really grew up a lot I guess.”

“And… he saw us kiss. Hyojun saw me kiss Hyoyoung.”

“What? You kissed her? With that face?”

“Hey, that’s not the point. I mean… anyway, Hyojun saw us.”

“Oh my god. You did it on purpose, didn’t you? You made sure he saw you kiss her.”

“Well, I can’t say no to that question…”

“You are so cruel.”

“It would be my job to make Hyojun give up as soon as possible. It would be better for him.”

“You are overdoing it. Totally unnecessary.”

“What?”

“You keep saying Hyojun needs to give up on his feelings, but who do you think you are? How dare you try to affect how he feels? It’s not your place, Kiwook.”

“Do… you think so?”

“Absolutely. What Hyojun feels is 100% his own responsibility. You can’t make him feel anything he doesn’t want to. Don’t even try to make it sound like you are trying to help him.”

“Well, if you say it like that… I guess…”

“Anyway, I get the gist of what happened so far. So you got forgiven by Hyoyoung and Hyojun ‘acknowledged’ you.”

“That’s right.”

“So why did you ask to see me?”

“You… what is your relationship with the Shuineung Group?”

“What…?”

“You and I both know that the Shuineung Group isn’t a small company. It’s not the kind of an agency that you can just contact by email and make things happen.”

“…”

“I may not speak good Chinese, but I do understand a fair bit.”

“You… can speak Chinese?”

“Thanks to my mother… there was a time when my mother tried to seduce a rich Chinese businessman. She thought having a Chinese-speaking son would make her look attractive to him, so I took lessons for about 4 years.”

“What? Why didn’t you tell me?”

“What would be the point of it? It’s not a good story anyway. And based on what I can see, you have some kind of a relationship with the Shuineung Group. And not just a purely business relationship…”

“… I’m the son.”

“Huh?”

“I am the third son of the CEO of Shuineung Group. The first two sons, my two older brothers, have a different mother than I do. Their mother died and my father got remarried to my mother.”

“Oh, you…”

“And it’s not like those stupid tv dramas where the stepbrothers hate each other and fight for control over the company. I love my brothers more than anything in the world, and they love me as well. I’ll bet they have the most extensive scrapbook of my idol career in the world.”

“I knew there must be something crazy about you… but this was not what I expected.”

“Anyway, you will get to know more details later. Soon, I think.”

“There is more?”

“Yeah, but I’m not sure if it will be a surprise to you. Anyway, why did you ask me that question just now?”

“Well, I was just thinking that you must have some influence on the Shuineung Group or something… and maybe you can help me to stop President Shim. That was all.”

“I already started on that, so you will see some good results very soon.”

“Oh, I see.”

“Yeah, but there are still a few things I need to take care of.”

“Is there anything I can do?”

“Hmm… do you want advice from me as a business partner or a friend?”
