Chapter 32
Joo Tae-kang was driving the car out of Seong Chan-young’s house like a thief.
The footprints that the transmigrated Chan-young feared were not the work of a ghost, but actually belonged to Joo Tae-kang and his bodyguards.
It’s just that Chan-young, a hard-working farmer, was busy with work and did not notice that the footprints were lined up near Chan-young’s house.
If he had looked at it with a little attention, he could have easily found even the traces of the vehicle passing by.
However, Chan-young, who was busy living a happy rural life with general, had no such thoughts. It was because he had never imagined that the gongs whom he had cut off the kite would come to him in the first place.
And now, if Chan-young, who read the original book, saw this, he’d say, “I have an objection, Original Author! This is a

!’ A rare scenery was unfolding.
‘I’ve never seen such a happy expression on him before.’
Joo Tae-kang was holding the steering wheel and pedaling like crazy. Joo Tae-kang’s face turned blue as if he had seen a ghost, and the sullen strong pheromone of him drove away the spirits of the attendants.
‘Sca- Scary.’
The alpha’s naturally born fierce and sharp pheromone filled the car. Even the attendant, who was born with alpha traits, turned pale as if he was about to vomit. As such, the pheromone of Joo Tae-gang was fierce.
“…… damn it.”
Joo Tae-kang did not tolerate a single strand and tangled his hair neatly. He was in a very dirty mood.
‘He’s happy as if he got the whole world with that son of a dog.’
Ironically, Joo Tae-kang was heartbroken by Seong Chan-young. It was not at all due to contempt for Chan-young, who was as clingy as before he cut off all contact and ran away.
‘Why would I feel this way because of that guy.’
The feeling Joo Tae-kang felt when he chased Seong Chan-young like a rat was an unknown annoyance.
Even that, because of a dog that was only the size of his feet, displeasure soared because Seong Chan-young was smiling more brightly than ever.
‘I can’t admit it.’
This feeling was something I had felt only when I saw Seo Eun-soo. It was abnormal. It was horrible, too.
But what was really terrible was himself who flinched at what Seong Chan-young was reciting to the white dog.
– No one’s gonna hurt you anymore.
– It’s safe here.
It must have been meant to appease the dog, but it was as if Seong Chan-young said it to himself.
‘……Was being sick not a lie?’
The country house, which looked small and cozy, was full of life. The well-managed flower bed and the house seemed to be new and even the windows were shiny. The puppy that Seong Chan-young was holding dearly also gained weight and had shiny fur.
However, Seong Chan-young was the only one in the house. His pale face and tired eyes were even sad.
Joo Tae-kang had no idea. That Seong Chan-young is not sick at all as they misunderstand.
Rather, Chan-young has been focusing on farming recently based on his healthy body. However, there was no way to know that the “weak” Seong Chan-young he saw was the result of staying up all night because he was happy to bring general home.
The last shot there was crucial.
– You can’t do this.
Tears dropped from Seong Chan-young’s eyes. As soon as tears like chicken droppings were about to fall on the ground, Chan-young wiped them with his hands, but when he saw the scene, Joo Tae-kang felt his heart drop.
And when he came to his senses, he was driving frantically to where he parked his car. If he hadn’t heard the voices of the attendants who followed him gasping and shouting, “Please go with us,” he might have driven alone and ran away at full speed.
‘What would it have been like if our eyes met?’
I was scared to face Seong Chan-young’s watery eyes. I thought it would be terrible if the eyes, which contained happiness as if they had earned the world, were distorted by pain when they saw me.
I only ran away from it. At that moment, his hair turned white. The decision to meet Seong Chan-young and dispose of his uncomfortable feelings became a piece of tissue and was thrown into a trash can.
“Darn it.”
Joo Tae-kang, who was amazed by the reality that he couldn’t understand himself, slammed his head into the steering wheel.
“Um, director-nim. Are you all right……?”
When the pheromone, which had been running around sharply as if it was going to kill anyone, was lifted a little, one of the attendants

means taking responsibility on behalf of others for something that people hesitate to take on
and carefully examined the condition of the Joo Tae-kang.
“Never mind, it’s all right.”
“Ah, yes.”
It wasn’t something to say while still stuck in the wheel. The attendants were convinced that the director of the headquarters was not okay at all.
‘What’s wrong with the director?’
‘I don’t know. The…… Didn’t he come here to beat up the young master of Seong Eun Group because he stabbed him in the back?’
‘I thought so too, but I don’t think so.’
The attendants communicated only with their mouths open like goldfish in order not to go against Ju Tae-kang’s mood.
The conclusion was one.
What’s wrong with him?
It was hard to guess for the attendants, who could not know the storm of emotions swirling in Joo Tae-kang’s mind.
‘I hope there’s no accident.’
The attendants were anxious. They just hoped that the head of the headquarters, who suddenly took the wheel and hit his head, was aware that other people were in the car.
Fortunately, perhaps the wishes of the attendants worked, Joo Tae-kang quickly raised his red head and started driving safely under the Road Traffic Act again.
Joo Tae-kang opened his mouth as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, saying he was alive.
“Hey, you there.”
“Yes, yes?”
“If the person you hated and despised to death looks different, what should I say is the reason?”
‘Suddenly? With that kind of question?’
When asked by Joo Tae-kang, the attendants were humming inwardly. No matter how much they looked at it, isn’t the question about the young master of Seong Eun Group?
The attendants were just attendants, so they weren’t aware of the details between Joo Tae-kang and Seong Chan-young. So they expressed their condolences to the youngest member who was asked, feeling fortunate that the target was not them.
There was a mistake in answering. I might not be able to see the youngest member after today because he might get fired.
‘Answer him well, maknae yah.’
All the seniors, except the maknae, eagerly cheered for him to give an easy answer, but it was a bomb that came back.
“Uhh….Um.. If it’s someone that bothers you, isn’t it probably a denial of becoming a fan?”
“
Denial of becoming a fan

The term actually comes from kpop where it means
a time period that you’re just about to be a fan of someone/group, but you’re kind of denying to be.(cause you’re not sure if you are really a fan or not)
?”
“Yes. At least the people around me who had this kind of counseling were all the same. Eventually, it comes down to dating counseling……
Umphh
.”
Unfortunately, the youngest attendant was tactless. And he chatted too frankly. Later, other attendants blocked the youngest’s mouth, but the colorful bomb dropped by the maknae burst Joo Tae-kang’s complicated insides.
‘I… have such feelings towards Seong Chan-young……?’
Joo Tae-kang, who had been hit the nail on the head with his careless remarks, stepped on the accelerator. The attendants, who were likely to be fined due to acceleration, quietly grabbed the handle of the car.
“Director! The car in front of you! The car!”
“Argh!”
“Oh, my God. Please save me from reckless driving…….”
‘It can’t be possible.’
Joo Tae-kang drove in anger. Sadly, even though he accelerated to chase away the anguish, all he could think of was Seong Chan-young, who was in tears.
‘No way!’
While Joo Tae-kang was in extreme confusion, Chan-young was calm.
“Oh, my eyes are dry because I couldn’t sleep last night.”
My ears are itchy, too.
‘Did a bug get in my ear? Why is it so itchy?’
It was truly a scene of madness.

“The footsteps are very uncomfortable, but I can’t help but do what I have to do.”’
Farming was the most avoidable harm in farming. Crops do not grow by themselves just by planting them. It is not only people who have to take care of them with care every day, but also crops.
“Let’s see. The vegetable garden is in good condition today as well.”
It was nice to see the green baby sprouts. The water was hydrated with a watering can, and my excitement naturally rose.
‘Grow well until I eat you with grilled meat.’
The thought of lettuce, chicory, kale, and perilla leaves pleased me. It tastes like I’m growing it myself. Just imagining it made my mouth water.
‘Garlic is a must for wraps.’
I was thinking about planting garlic soon. The land in my name was large, so I thought I could plant all the beans, garlic, radish, and rice there.
Field, the field had to be plowed. I pulled out the ploughing machine with reverence. It was an electric cultivator, one of the latest agricultural equipment purchased by Secretary Choi.
Of course, he also did not forget to spray compost and fertilizer over the soil before turning the cultivator.
“The feeling of digging with hoe is good, but there is no reason to have a hard time when you can use the latest farming tools.”
Wiiiiiiing. When I turned the motor, it made a rather noisy sound, and the soil dug easily. Next to me, the general clung to me and tried not to fall off. It was cute with a slightly sticking out.
“General, go play a little far away because the soil may splash.”
“Woof!”
Good general ran around a little away from me as he understood. General, who was enthusiastic about the flying butterfly, was really lovely. Maybe it’s because he’s still young, but he’s very active.
I plowed the field steadily and thought about what else to plant.
‘I like fruit for dessert. Let’s buy fruit trees.’
My blood boiled as the youngest son of an orchard house. The fruit harvesting site, which was always sick and only watched, was still visible.
I couldn’t even peel the fruit. The family could see the fruits they picked themselves only after they were always on top of the table.
I was curious as I chewed on a crunchy apple that was well-honey. The apple I raised is so delicious. If I could, I’d love to raise it deliciously.
“Should I say it’s a relief that I can do anything now?”
Even though I was happy with farming, I suddenly felt a longing and bitterness for the original world.
‘That’s that, and this is this.’
I focused on plowing the field by shaking off my thoughts that were rushing like dark clouds. As expected, simple labor was the best when it was hard.
I had to work hard and feed our general. The responsibility as head of household was heavy.
“Phew. I’m done grinding.”
As the land was large, the time to go to the field was also long. I complimented myself for working hard again, and my cell phone rang in my pocket.
“Who is it?”
I thought it was Secretary Choi, but it wasn’t him.
On the cell phone screen, it was an unknown number.
