Weekly Chapter 3/7
Eunha, who turned the page, felt chills.
She thought maybe she could finish the last chapter today.
When she concentrated on the book, she could forget that she was in Jihak’s arms.
She continued reading. The sentences that scared her so much at first, after saying them out loud several times, didn’t scare her at all.
“I always like your voice.”
Eunha gently turned her head in his direction, which tightly embraced her. When he rested his chin on her shoulder, his lips brushed her cheek.
“Can I finish the book?”
“Yes.”
He waited quietly for her to recite the last sentence. Eunha, who recited the last sentence in a light voice, rubbed her sweaty hands on her clothes.
“Good job. I promised I’d pay you for every book you’ve read, so I have to do it. Yuljae is waiting for you outside.”
He pushed her away. Eunha thought that today too Jihak would tease her. Really, it seemed he wanted her to leave.
Unconsciously, Eunha grabbed his clothes.
“Lord.”
“Your voice is different, it seems you haven’t recovered yet.”
Eunha steeled herself.
“I need your help with something.”
“Tell me.”
She knelt meekly before him. Then she spoke with her eyes to the floor.
“I won’t charge you for reading the books. I’ll stand by you whenever you need me. I will do anything you ask me to do. But rescue my sister from the courtesan house.”
Eunha kept her head down as she waited for Jihak’s reply. Her body was trembling, she seemed to be waiting for a result. Or maybe it was the cold air.
He exhaled a puff of smoke.
“You want me to rescue your sister from the courtesan house?”
“Yes.”
“Will you do anything?”
“Yes, I’ll do anything!”
Eunha knew she could not raise 8,000 nyang. Even if she had two lives, she could not raise that money. But she couldn’t give up on Yongi.
Now that she was not in his lap, the cold wind made her shiver. The smoke that swirled in the air went out the window.
“If I rescue your sister from the courtesan’s house, rumor will spread that she will become my wife. Now people will say that I am a libertine.”
“That…”
“If you want it, I will do it.”
Eunha suddenly raised her head.
“Thank you. Thank you. I will never forget this favor…”
“But cut the link to your sister.”
When he saw her expression change, Jihak spoke more viciously.
“You will never see your sister again. Besides, you will always be my eyes. If you can do that, I will rescue your sister from the courtesan house.”
His request seemed absurd. Everyone knew how much she loved her sister.
Eunha suppressed her anger. She felt she was being mocked.
She stood up with clenched fists.
“I have made a mistake. I’m sorry. Please pretend you didn’t hear anything.”
His gaze changed.
“Sit down.”
“She’s my only older sister. If that’s the only option, then no. I’ll definitely find another way.”
“I said, sit down.”
He had a smile on his face, but his eyes were fierce. But she couldn’t take it back either. First, she had come here to raise money for Yongi. But if she couldn’t save Yongi, she would no longer work as his reader.
“I decided to become your eyes to save my sister, because you have power.”
He nodded for her to continue. Eunha tried not to panic.
“But if you can’t save my sister, I have no reason to be here. I am indebted to you. I will not forget what I have received.”
Eunha bowed. It was like a final goodbye.
He felt shocked when he saw her turn away without regret.
Jihak, who quickly stood up, held out his hand as she was about to open the door. Eunha was trapped between Jihak and the door.
His fierce attitude intimidated her.
“You… how dare you challenge me…”
