When Your Pain Becomes Mine - Chapter 149: Chapter 149.

In the car on the way to the forum.
“Because you’re already beautiful,” Gyeonhui recalled what he had said to Sun.
It was all embarrassing enough to make his own toes curl and cringe.
“Hah… I’m definitely insane.”
When he got in the car, he was still blaming himself.
“Why? What’s wrong?” Ojae asked while he was driving.

“You don’t need to know.”
“Why? Because she is already beautiful?”
Ojae teased Gyeonhui, and he looked at Ojae furiously.
When Ojae noticed Gyeonhui’s eyes, he quickly cleared his throat and stopped giggling.
“Don’t take it out on me.”
“Is that what you want? You know I can.”
“No, Sir.” Ojae quickly changed the subject. “By the way, would you like to wax with me? Ojae asked.
“Are you insane?”
“In fact, I really wanted to wear short pants in the Summer. Maybe I can if I wax my legs.”
“Hah…”
Gyeonhui started feeling a headache because of the tsunami of waxing.

“Because you’re already beautiful! Puwap! Hahaha!!” Mocking Gyeonhui, Ari burst out laughing.
“Did you hear it?” Sun asked in embarrassment.
“Sure, how can I not hear it? He shouted out loud. However, I would have never thought that he could say such a thing.” Ari said this as if she couldn’t believe it.
“… He’s changed a lot.”
“You know this means he’s close to death soon.”
“What?”
“I mean, he’s just… so different… compared to how he reacted before. Hmm, hmm.” Ari quickly patched up her words.
However, Sun also had to agree with Ari.
The recent change he had shown her was something that she couldn’t possibly imagine until she literally heard him or saw him with her own eyes. Thus, she wondered what exactly had happened to him, and in the meantime, she also got anxious because she didn’t know how he managed to change.
However, Sun soon shook her head.
“He’s been trying hard, so I also need to do the same thing.”
She didn’t need to worry about the future that hadn’t even come yet.
She thought she only needed to do her best for each other, and that was all she needed to do.
‘Dring.’
With a sound, the elevator opened.
Ari and Sun got on the elevator and pushed the ‘close’ button.
“Wait!”
At that moment, Sun pushed the ‘open’ button after she heard a voice in a hurry.
A lady that was wearing a luxury hat got into the elevator.
The lady in the dress looked proud of her physical appearance.
The lady pushed the ‘Lobby’ button, leaned against the wall, and took out her phone.
“I’m in the elevator. I’m almost there. Okay.”
The lady talked on the phone loudly. Ari frowned as she looked at Sun.
After a moment, when the elevator arrived at the lobby, the lady pushed Sun away when she got out of the elevator. When that happened, the lady stepped on Sun’s feet with her high heels.
“Ouch!” Sun held her ankle while moaning.
“Oh, my. I’m so sorry.”
“No… I’m fine.”
Although Sun said that she was okay, she looked very uncomfortable while walking.
“I’m very sorry.”
Holding the phone, the lady got out of the elevator.
“Who’s that woman?” Ari said when she saw the lady leaving the elevator.
“Why?”
“Did you see her face? She didn’t even say sorry to you at all.”
“No way. She has apologized.”
“Bitch.”
Ari was annoyed and looked at the woman.
The woman was facing her phone towards Sun and still looking at Ari and Sun.
When the door was closed, Ari started speaking. “Did you see her? Why was she still looking at us? That’s annoying.”
“Just stop. It was just an accident.”
Sun calmed Ari and looked at her ankle.
It was the same foot that she fell on when she dropped her phone, so the pain was pretty severe.

In the parking lot of the building where the forum was being held.
When Gyeonhui got out of the car, he adjusted his clothes. It was a meeting that famous politicians and CEOs were supposed to join at once, so Gyeonhui was really nervous.
At that moment, Chunduk, who was coming out of the parking lot, saw Gyeonhui and approached him.
“Who is this!”
Gyeohui seemed bothered, so he just tried to pass him by without saying hello to him.
“At least say hello to me?”
“What?”
“Let’s greet each other. We’re family.”
“Family?”
Gyeonhui was outraged and burst out a smirk.
“Your mother, your father, and even you, you were the people that claimed that I’m your family?”
Hearing Gyeonhui’s sharp words, Chuchduk’s face became serious immediately.
However, as soon he looked around and became self-conscious, he started pretending that he was relaxed.
“Is it obvious? Somebody suddenly showed up and claimed that he is one of us. Who would easily accept you as a family? It looked like you were meshing up with us for money. Don’t you think so?”
Lifting his one eyebrow, Chunduk said. Gyeonhui smirked and looked at him again.
“Pulling a stupid trick is what you’re good at. Not me.”
“What did you just say?”
“Don’t mess with me unless you want to lose what you have now.”
“What!!!”
Chunduk became impatient, and his voice raised rapidly. Because of that, he drew some attention from the people around them.
“Please. Relax.” Watching them from the side, Ojae stopped them.
When Chunduk noticed the people, he quickly hid his anger.
“Hmm, hmm. I am not upset, so I don’t know what you mean, Mr. Kwon.”
Chunduk adjusted his clothes, pretending like nothing had happened.
“I’m sure you weren’t invited to the inside of the meeting because you’re leaving early.”
Hearing Gyeonhui, Chunduk’s face wiggled.
“That seems right because the meeting is not for small fish.”
When he said this, he went inside the forum.
“Hah…”
When Gyeonhui was gone, Chunduk no longer had a person to argue with him, so he was only looking at Ojae in outrage.
“How is he allowed to join the meeting with the Senators?”
“Because it was the Senators who had called him.”
Ojae answered him like it was apparent. Hearing Ojae, Chunduk’s face was furiously wiggling.

When Gyeonhui ignored Chunduk, who was leaving him behind, he went inside of the forum event hall. However, at that moment, his body stumbled.
“Ow…” He moaned and frowned while holding his ankle in pain.
“What? What’s wrong?” Ojae was surprised and came to him.
“My ankle… Ow…”
The throbbing pain felt like his ankle was stabbed by something sharp.
When he barely endured the pain, he quickly took out his phone and called her.
“Hello?” Luckily, Sun answered after a few rings.
“Are you okay?”
“Me? Yes, I’m fine. What’s up?”
“No, nothing. I’ll call you later.”
Gyeonhui knew that Sun wouldn’t tell him her trouble even if she had it. However, when he heard her voice, it sounded like nothing really had happened to her.
“Why do I feel so anxious… like something’s going to happen…”
When he hung up the phone with her, his thoughts became heavier because of the unknown, ominous feeling creeping toward his head. However, he calmed himself after catching his breath and walked into the meeting.
