Chapter 3
#3
If I had noona right next to me, I would have raised my thumbs up at the cold housekeeper’s words. So, I heard that Seong Chan-young was cursed to die throughout the novel.
Seong Chan-young was such a greedy character. He had to have what he wanted to have so that his temper would be relieved, and he could only relax by
not letting others poke the persimmon that he couldn't eat
[1]
못 먹는 감 찔러나 본다 It is said that if there is something you cannot have, you will get rid of it so that it does not fall into the hands of others. In other words, it means that people act out of spite or greed depending on the time.
.
In short, he was an evil character that was easy for the writer to neglect.
‘Even if he got what he wanted, once he got sick of it, he would find something else.’
That was the case with Seong Chan-young’s fiance, Baek Do-jun. Their family was close because they were involved in business. However, since Seong Chan-young’s family had an advantage over Baek Do-jun’s family, Baek Do-jun’s family was in a much lower position.
The moment, Seong Chan-young, a Dominant Omega, and Baek Do-jun, an Alpha, were born in each family, Baek Do-jun’s family regarded this as a golden opportunity.
– Omegas are attracted to Alphas. Dojun-ah, even if you are not a dominant Alpha, you will definitely be able to lure the youngest son of the Seong Eun Group.
If Alpha and Omega get married, Seong Eun Group would benefit from Baek Do-jun’s family, even from Seong Chan-young’s view.
‘And they didn’t want to miss the genetic benefits of the Dominant Omega.’
Such was the existence of Seong Chan-young, the fourth-generation
chaebol
[2]
Chaebol (재벌) is an economic term referring to a group of monopolistic capitalists or entrepreneurs with great power in the business world, or a group of big capitalists made up of family or relatives.
. He’s like a sweet fruit that others don’t want to miss, and even within the family, despite being an Omega, he’s the youngest with precious peppers.
This was no different in Baek Do-jun’s family, so his father called Baek Do-jun and asked him to like Sung Chan-young.
-Why should I do that?
But who is Baek Do-jun? He is one of the overly obsessive Gongs in the novel. There was a near 0% chance that he would like Seong Chan-young, the villain.
On the day he met Seong Chan-young, Baek Do-jun said this all at once.
-I don’t like you. You are so full of yourself.
As it was their first meeting, he didn’t say this because he really hated Sung Chan-young. It was the grumpiness that caused the child to commit under stress as Baek Do-jun kept getting pressured to connect with Seong Chan-young just because he was an alpha in the same age-group with him.
-Really? Then I’ll choose you.
-What?
-Father, I’ll take him as my fiancé. That cheeky little boy.
Unfortunately for Baek Do-jun, however, those words pressed the volatile switch of Seong Chan-young. Among the children of the well-off family, Baek Do-jun’s appearance was quite noticeable, and it ignited Seong Chan-young’s desire to have something rare.
‘In addition, it was perfect for Seong Chan-young’s sadistic temper.’
So eventually, Baek Do-jun became Seong Chan-young’s fiance, even though he didn’t want to. In words, he was his fiancé, but in reality, it was the position of a subordinate who was being exploited.
Seong Chan-young did not even like Baek Do-jun, yet called him from time to time to ask him to buy something and made him take care of him under the pretence of fake illness.
Even if Baek Do-joon hated it, the engagement showed no signs of breaking. Even if Seong Chan-young met someone else or begged for affection from the public, he opposed the breakup of his family.
Therefore, the housekeeper’s guess was never wrong. It was possible because Seong Chan-young often asked Baek Do-jun to come and go, making excuses using illness like a shepherd boy.
‘The problem is that if you look at the fact that I transmigrated, it could be that Seong Chan-young really tried to kill himself…….’
According to the explanation of my sister, who was a huge fan of BL novels, it is not a trend these days to transmigrate into the characters in the novel without anything happening. She said there were many cases of transmigration after being seriously injured or killed.
My mind has become complicated. Why did Seong Chan-young, who commits suicide only after facing a tragic end, choose to commit suicide that was not even in the original plotline? And why me?
The voice of the housekeeper, who is expressing her worries, was stuck in my ears.
“It bothers me to keep bothering you, so why don’t I just reveal Seong Chan-young’s secret?”
What?
I almost screamed for a moment. It wasn’t because of me; it was because I was worried about Ajumma.
‘
Ajumoni,
[3]
아주머니 is a more formal and polite way of saying Ajumma.
you’ll be in trouble if you do that!’
The reason why Seong Chan-young was able to hide it even after being diagnosed as a dominant omega in the final judgement was because his family, the Seong Eun Group, had a strong power.
Seong Eun family raised Seong Chan-young like a
golden branch and jade leaf
[4]
금지옥엽 늦둥이 Gold branch and jade leaf means a precious and priceless child.
, but quickly agreed to deceive him as a beta when he was finally found to be a recessive omega.
Since all the members of the family were born with dominant traits, the youngest’s recessive traits, which could be a stain, are defects that must be hidden.
So the fact that Seong Chan-young is a recessive omega was kept secret. Employees found out on their own because he had to take heat cycle drugs every time, but they were quietly handled when they tried to extort or threaten with this fact.
‘So it’s better not to do anything unnecessary…….’
My mouth was watering. Seong Chan-young is not doomed now, but I was so nervous because I didn’t know what Baek Do-jun would say.
If he agrees with the housekeeper’s opinion here, Baek Do-jun would only be more difficult as a result. Even if it’s not Seong Chan-young, Seong Eun Group will not leave Baek Do-jun alone.
‘Please don’t do that, Dojun!’
I’m sorry for cursing you for being just a character in a Homo Gay story. I won’t do it again, so please don’t make the wrong choice.
Perhaps it was thanks to praying and repenting the past in my mind, but after a short time, when Baek Do-joon answered, the housekeeper sighed deeply and answered.
“……I see. Like you said, I think I was too hasty. Let’s wait a little longer.”
Then she took the elevator and left. It was not until I heard the elevator go down that I trudged back into the living room and hung down on the sofa.
“The ‘wait’ she mentioned, did she mean the moment that will bring down Seong Chan-young…?”
Ugh. I tried to escape reality again by hitting the fluffy cushions wildly. But the reality given was harsh.
The fact that Baek Do-jun is monitoring Seong Chan-young and measuring the kill angle means that the original plotline is already underway. Seong Chan-young’s face in the mirror was already an adult, and he was living in beta, hiding the fact that he was finally diagnosed as a recessive omega.
That means….
“It means that Seo Eun-soo, the protagonist and main Shou of this novel, must have already made a number of attacks! Whoops!”
Why didn’t I transmigrate before the original plotline started? Why did I transmigrate at this ambiguous time when the chances of recovery are already zero?
“Damn, I’m going to clean up all the poop that Sung Chan-young made!”
Argh. When I pulled the car cushions all the way to both sides in anger, made a boozing sound and tore them apart. Exactly in half.
“……Seong Chan-young is really strong.”
I thought he was very weak because he was diagnosed as a recessive omega, but he’s not…….
It was the moment when I learned new information that was not in the original. Looking blankly at the torn cushion, I remembered Seo Eun-soo, who was probably already caught up in Seong Chan-young’s craziness.
‘Did he hit Seo Eun-soo with this power? Wow, that must have hurt a lot.’
Then he’ll definitely try to stifle Seong Chanyoung……? No matter how nice he is, he’s still a human being.….
“Oh my god.”
It was the original plotline. After killing one cushion, I fell back into depression and hung helplessly on the sofa.
Growl~
“What… This belly is hungry without any sense…….”
I got up from sadness and searched the cupboard to eat ramen.
However, there was no ramen in any house, whether Seong Chan-young was an obsessive Shou who followed the obsession of the Gongs. Are you sure he’s Korean? How come there’s no ramen?
“Oh, my… I’m hungry.”
When I had no choice but to search the refrigerator, brilliant side dishes were neatly stored. Even kindly, the name of the food, the deadline for eating, and how much it takes to heat it were carefully written.
“Wow,
Korean beef braised short ribs,
spicy stir-fried chicken
,
boiled pork
, and
buckwheat noodles
… There’s even homemade
tangsuyuk…
…?”
There were precious foods that could only be seen on birthdays in the house. I was amazed to see neatly packed containers of each type, regardless of Korean, Japanese, Chinese, or Western food. In any dish, the generous use of fresh ingredients was of high quality.
“Is this the chaebol class?”
It was also an ecstatic moment to forget that I transmigrated into a bad villain in the novel for a while. I quickly picked out the delicious side dishes that the housekeeper must have made from the refrigerator and finished a meal in an instant.
“Ugh. I think I’m going to live.”
After burping energetically, I was at a loss for what to do in the future. How can we avoid the ending of being sold to a perverted recessive alpha old man who preys on young omegas?
“……isn’t it simple?”
There was something that suddenly came to mind. My sister’s words like “I’ll do this if I transmigrated into the original work.”
-The main characters who are possessed by novels all try to escape the original. You said you’d change the flow.
-Yea. Yeah. Of course.
– I’m going to use everything that’s available when I’m in that situation. For example, if I transmigrate into Seong Chan-young, I want to go to Hawaii far away to play, eat, and rest with money that he can spend.
“That’s it!”
The ending of the original work was not right, thus I came up with a way to live satisfied with Seong Chan-young’s life.
“Farming, farming!”
I’m leaving to do the farming that I have wanted to do!
