Episode 215 Lee Jae
-heon, who is used as a cider element in the story, is mainly portrayed as an old man manager.
An old man generally refers to an authoritarian and rude person who forces old-fashioned thinking, but Lee Jae-heon, before remembering his past life, had many strange aspects that would make it difficult to call him a typical old man. The most representative part was that he went to work early in the morning to deliberately harass others.
In fact, the victim who was being harassed by him could not have thought much of it. Well, once it happens, it’s the same as being irritated, and right now I’m having a hard time and suffering, so what’s the point of a human being who wants me to disappear into space?
“…hmm.”
Lee Jae-heon himself felt the same way when he remembered his past life.
“An ordinary old man.”
Unfortunately, it was a disaster that occurred because his past life was unusual.
If he had grown up in a slightly more normal family, he would have felt something was strange. For example, being overly vain or obsessed with appearances… Even if we assume that everything is possible up to this point, such as going to work first in a subject where you sleep a lot and finding fault with others. It’s about desperately trying to put others down.
Jaeheon Lee knew why he was making such ‘effort’, but he didn’t think it was a problem. This was because, unlike the sense of disparity felt in knowledge related to survival, there was nothing strange about ‘effort’ either in the memories of the past life or the current life.
“Very ordinary.”
Other oldies don’t go this far, but that’s a personal characteristic.
“Everyone makes this kind of ‘effort’ in their lives, right?”
Don’t you live your life in a way that gives legitimacy to it by putting others down?
It’s about finding a reason to live.

―Jaeheon.
“What is it?”
To Lee Jae-heon’s blunt answer, his older brother Lee Jae-hyung responded.
-What are you going to do next weekend?
“weekend? “I don’t think there’s anything in particular… Is something going on?”
―Are we only meeting for work?
“We only meet for work.”
―Look at the guy who is still upset about the prank he played last time.
“Hey, please….”
Jiik-
“Bottom line.”
Lee Jae-heon, dragging his slippers, looked at the mirror. In contrast to his mildly irritated voice, his face has a pale, dry expression.
And the person in the mirror changes.
-It’s nothing special, but I bought a small boat this time. Do you know your hobby?
“That, that… It’s a very bad quality drink. “It’s really evil.”
A gloomy and desolate impression. All of the hair was slicked back, but a few strands of hair were sticking out on the sides. Eyes resembling snakes and deep dark circles beneath them. Thin eyebrows curved into a nasolabial shape. There are two dots in the lower right corner of the mouth…
He is an uncomfortable person even though he is not making any facial expressions.
-What is fishing? Why is that?
“They pretend to be fishing and just park next to someone so they can look around because they’re bored.”
―Hey, why is that evil? Only then can you recognize what this person is like. Isn’t this all the know-how of life, Jaeheon?
“What a trivial thing to say…”
The man in the mirror
slightly lifts his lips to mock me.
“If you’re going to talk nonsense, I’ll hang up.”
Maybe he has such a terrible smile.
‘…As expected, I like your face better now.’
That’s just the face of a traitor.
The overall impression of the face before was thin and sharp. His lips and eyes were thin, and his frame itself was thin, so it was common for him to be looked down upon when he was young. As I got older, I learned how to set the mood, but I don’t know how much trouble I had when I couldn’t even do that.
On the other hand, his face was satisfied now. Being moderately handsome and moderately ferocious at least doesn’t give the impression of being looked down upon. It was amazing that Choi Min-hong and Jang Seo-ah approached Lee Jae-heon without hesitation.
-Ah, crap. It’s been a while since my brother called, and he was so excited…
“Shall I hang up?”
―Let’s go fishing together, okay? Do you know how good this brother is at making spicy stew?
“What kind of ship are you going on?”
-You know why it’s just like that. A fur coat carried by old people. Something old. Well, if you’re going overseas, if you want to fish properly, you have to do it in wind and rain. huh? In the dark early morning. That is the true taste of fishing.
“You have very unique tastes… What about the stuff you used before?”
-I’m sick of the engine sound. Well… I’m taking this opportunity to change.
“Be frugal.”
-Are you being sarcastic? Hey, our Jaeheon has grown up a lot? What?
Ah, it’s gone.
“…Anyway, aren’t you saying we should go together? “The main point.”
-yes? I know you’re free anyway, brother. Would you have called me without even looking into your schedule?
“I told you a minute ago that I was free.”
-Oh, stop talking back.
“It’s mine.”
-come? know? If you don’t come, Mr. You won’t leave me alone.
“When did you leave me alone…?”
-You could have just left us alone.
The mirror, which had returned to its original state, only reflected a man with a grim and dry expression. Jaeheon Lee slowly swept the mirror down with his hand.
“Where are you going to catch it? You have to tell me.”
-Hey, what about fishing? Of course it’s Busan, right? Brother Lee will teach you the essence of fishing.
“Please text me the address… From what I heard, it sounds like early morning fishing. What time will you be going? “We will adjust accordingly.”
―Well, about 3 o’clock…? I’m looking at it around 3 or 4 o’clock.
“Oh, I have to be hit by that cold wind at that time? Wow, really…”
―Is it because your brother is also getting hit? If this bastard comes, he will come quickly. I didn’t know about this noble heart that wants to take care of my younger brother.
“Anyway, I understand.”
Talk.
Look at the mirror with your finger.
“It’s been a while since I’ve been to the sea…”
For a moment, nothing was reflected in the mirror.
“…I should take some motion sickness medicine.”
-That’s good.
“While I’m gone, I should catch some too.”
Lee Jae-heon quietly leaned his forehead against the mirror surface with the hand that was not holding the cell phone. I smiled as I saw myself reflected again through narrowed eyes.
“This time… I should do better.”
It was a smile similar to the face from my previous life that laughed at me in the mirror earlier.
-you? Hey, don’t be funny. I know that you are cursed by the sea, the sky knows, and the sea knows. It’s hard to catch a lot… Don’t go and throw up.
“Because the real person has a really bad personality. “When your younger brother declares that he will do his best, isn’t that what an older brother is? He accepts it with a heavenly heart and says, ‘Oh, oh?’”
―That’s why I’m calling you this time to teach you about fishing. How generous.
fishing.
Go fishing.
“Well… that aside.”
Is what you’re talking about really fishing to catch fish?
“Do you seem to be in a good mood?”
-Oh, did you feel it? It’s nothing special… should I just say it’s a small joy. Something fun happened.
“Are you playing with fire?”
– Shut up, Mr. Wa Wa. Wow… if she hears that, we’ll both be shocked. You, you bastard. He hung out with bad guys and said such promiscuous things…
“Are you ignoring the manager? Who is calling you a brat? “And he’s so promiscuous that he can’t even hold a woman’s hand.”
-Oh, that’s it. What can I say? I’ll tell you the time and location, so I’ll come on time. huh? You will learn a lot after coming. My brother thinks of you like this, Jaeheon.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about… I’m hanging up.”
-OK.
Jaeheon Lee quietly looked down at his phone as the call suddenly hung up.
“….”
I mutter in the pure white bathroom.
“It wouldn’t be wrong.”
Playing with fire is usually used in three meanings.
First, playing with fire. Second, indiscriminate association. And third…
“…Ah.”
Dangerous work.
“If I get hurt this time, are you going to get criticized again?”
Then I’ll hide it as best as I can. Fluffy chicks, faint.
Lee Jae-heon, who casually recited a story that would make survivors faint upon hearing it, quietly left the bathroom and put on a soft brown knit cardigan. I let my hair, which had always been slicked back, fall down naturally, and found immaculate white sneakers among my shoes.
Lee Jae-heon, casually wearing a long, loose cardigan, left the house.
“Oh my gosh, teacher!”
A familiar, cheerful voice is now heard.
“Why did you come out so early?”
When Lee Jae-heon looked surprised, his opponent, CEO Jeong-man Choi, grinned.
“Hahaha, today is the day we treat ourselves, so of course we have to come out quickly. “Come on, Minhong says hello.”
“hello!”
Minhong Choi, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, pops out the window and says hello. As I roughly stroke that round head, the curly feel feels good in my hand. President Choi Jeong-man, who was smiling happily as he looked at the two, tapped the seat next to me and said.
“Please get in. I was warming up the seat.”
“Wow, such consideration….”
“You didn’t even receive an envelope of money, but you have to do something like this…. More than that, you came out dressed very stylishly today, didn’t you? “I thought some celebrity was walking by!”
“Wow, this is so embarrassing.”
“I usually only see people wearing suits, but seeing them in comfortable clothes like this feels different…”
It’s a good thing if you look like that.
‘If a person who normally dresses tightly dresses casually, their impression will look different.’
You might think, ‘Oh, he’s a person with this kind of side,’ or you might think, ‘He looks really comfortable, unlike usual.’ Either way, it is pleasing to Lee Jae-heon, who wants to leave a comfortable impression without being burdensome to the Choi family. Wasn’t the coordination set up with that in mind from the beginning?
In order to listen to their deep circumstances and gain their trust, I had to appear as easy to deal with as possible. Even though Choi Min-hong didn’t know, President Choi Jeong-man still remained wary.
“My younger brother…”
“He told me to come and have fun with the guys. “He said he had plans with his friends today.”
“Fortunately, the. “It would be difficult for someone as flower-like as your younger brother to join a men’s bathhouse like this.”
“yes? Ahahahahaha! Like a flower…! Wow, wow, looking at what you’re saying, I guess you’ve been in a relationship. He should have heard this….”
“Isn’t Hong Il-jeom always tired wherever he goes?”
Lee Jae-heon, who let out a light-hearted laugh, turned his body back and looked at Choi Min-hong. The child muttered, ‘Hongiljeom?’ and was thinking about a word I didn’t know.
“Minhong.”
Minhong is not a child, it is ‘Minhong-ah’.
“…yes.”
Cleverly, he seemed to have noticed the difference and slowly dragged his body, which had been buried backwards, forward and snuggled into the passenger seat. Jaeheon Lee smiled slightly and held out his hand as he looked at her with his characteristic duck mouth poking out as if he was concentrating.
“gift.”
“gift.”
“Minhong gave you a gift last time, so I gave you something in return.”
“….”
What he gave the child as a gift was a toy ring made of gold wire. It is Lee Jae-heon’s handmade product with a fake pearl threaded in the center. He sighed inwardly at the memory of the hard work he had to do to make it with dexterity that seemed to exist or not.
“It was made by my uncle.”
“Oh, I recognized it right away.”
“…I like this.”
I was worried because he was at the age where he would like toy swords, but surprisingly, his face was bright.
“I like this.”
Choi Min-hong, who keeps muttering, is kneading the toy ring. Just like when you massage Lee Jae-heon’s hand, you press it with your fingers and massage it.
“….”
I’m glad if you like it.
