Chapter 165 Get on the bus!
Jung-hwan, groaning in pain as he covered his nose and forehead, walked through the alley.
Anyone who didn't know better would think he'd been given a good beating.
"Oh dear! Son! Did you get hit? Who did it?!" As soon as Ms. Leopard stepped out of the alley, she saw Zheng Huan in the alley, ran over and reached out to hold Zheng Huan's head, looking at the redness and swelling on his head with heartache.
"Tell me who it was! Who hit my son!" Ms. Leopard demanded urgently.
"Mom~! No..." Jung-hwan hesitated to speak.
"Didn't you go to Shuyu's house?"
"How could that be! Shuyu isn't that kind of person~"
Ms. Leopard was lost in thought.
Seeing that his mother's thoughts were wandering off to all sorts of unknown directions, Jung-hwan could only say something apologetically.
"I just had a nosebleed~ and the bump on my head was from hitting the door frame~" Jung-hwan said slowly.
Ms. Leopard was silent for two seconds...
"Really~ How could you be so careless~" Ms. Leopard was both amused and distressed. Looking at the bump on his head, she quickly helped him back.
"Mom, no need to help me up~"
"Oh! By the way? Where are you going?"
Jung-hwan watched his mother leave with curiosity.
"Your dad went to buy a car, I came out to see if he's back yet," Ms. Leopard said curiously, looking at the alley entrance. "Why isn't he back yet?"
"Buy a car?" Jung-hwan asked in confusion. Did his family have the money to buy a car?
Didn't my older brother spend almost all his living expenses when he was hospitalized last time?
Seeing his puzzled look, Ms. Leopard explained.
"We just caught that woman from the hardware store a few days ago and got all the money she owed back, twenty million!" Ms. Leopard smiled and looked at him.
"Twenty million?" Jung-hwan looked at his mother in surprise.
Twenty million for a car? That car must be pretty good.
Ms. Leopard turned her head and glanced at Shan Ying's family next door. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart. As soon as she got the money, she went to find Shan Ying.
When Sun-young said it was already resolved, I thought she was lying and just putting on an act.
After Sun-young explained again, she realized that everyone was helping her, and that Seo-woo and Taek's father had both stepped in. Only then did she feel relieved.
The auction was cancelled, but the house is still registered under that mother-in-law's name. Buying the house would cost significantly more than paying off the debt, and Sun-young doesn't want to owe her any more favors. Hopefully, this mother-in-law will stop causing trouble; Sun-young can't take any more torment...
Liu Shuyu: Relax, if she's not respectable and keeps causing trouble, someone will make her respectable.
Ms. Leopard sighed, then turned back to Jung-hwan with a smile.
"Your dad always seems very melancholy on his birthday, I don't know why."
"Tomorrow is his birthday, and Mom gritted her teeth and gave him all 20 million to buy him an early birthday present~"
He said he was buying a car, but I don't know what kind of car he bought.
"They should be back soon~"
"Oh~!" Jung-hwan was attracted by the family's new car and looked expectantly at the entrance of the alley.
"What kind of car did Dad buy? The latest model?"
As he asked the question, Jung-hwan removed the wad of paper from his nose, and seeing that there was no blood, he threw it into the trash can next to him.
"Ha~ Your dad's such a stingy person~"
"I'm not expecting him to buy the latest model."
"In short, even if he spends half of the 20 million, it would be better than that 'little horse-drawn carriage' now, right?"
Ms. Leopard knew Kim Sung-kyun's personality, so she prepared herself in advance.
I lowered my expectations a bit.
"Are you kidding me? A car worth twenty million!"
"It must be the latest model!"
Jung-hwan looked at the alley entrance with great anticipation.
"I'd like to," Ms. Leopard said, pursing her lips, somewhat skeptical of Kim Sung-jun's spending power.
The sound of a car approaching came from outside the alley.
"Oh~! Mom, listen! That voice~ It's so beautiful~ You can tell it's..."
Just as Jung-hwan was about to praise his dad, a small red car drove into the alley. At first glance, it looked like a brand new car; it was quite shiny.
Upon getting closer, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief, then opened them again.
It's not as good as it looked at at first glance~
As it pulled up in front of me, I immediately saw it—a small car that looked almost identical to the previous one, except for the color...
In the few seconds it took for Ms. Leopard to drive her car into the alley, her facial expression was as unpredictable as the weather before a typhoon.
Ms. Leopard, whose mood had shifted several times in an instant, stared blankly as Kim Sung-jun brought the car to a stop.
After the vehicle came to a complete stop, Jin Chengjun opened the door and got out.
"Ta-da! The new car is here!" Kim Sung-kyun, like a child, excitedly showed it off to the two of them as soon as he got out of his seat.
"You... what... is this?" The leopard lady looked at him in disbelief.
Twenty million? You bought this for twenty million?
"What else could it be?"
"Of course it's a man's pride—the car!"
"How about it? Doesn't it look exactly like a brand new car?"
Kim Sung-kyun stylishly pulled up the car roof antenna, struck a pose, and happily showed it off to the two of them.
"It's still a used car..." Jung-hwan looked at his father speechlessly. He had been too happy too soon; he had known all along that his father was like this...
"Alright, stop staring, Mi-ran and Jung-hwan, get in the car, I'll take you for a spin." Kim Sung-jun waved with a smile, signaling the two to get in the car.
Kim Sung-kyun: Get on the bus! Get on the bus!
"Come back when you've had your fill of wandering around!" Ms. Leopard turned and went home speechlessly.
Ms. Leopard: Let alone ten million, even two million would be hard to spend...
Kim Sung-kyun continued to wave at Jung-hwan, who hadn't left yet.
Ms. Leopard turned back and pulled Jung-hwan, who had bumped his head, away, closing the door behind him as well...
Seeing this, Jin Chengjun retracted the roof antenna, closed the car door, and hurried home.
"Huh?" Jin Chengjun pulled hard on the door and jumped up awkwardly to look inside.
"Meilan, open the door!"
"Meilan~....."
"Jung-hwan, open the door for Dad..."
Kim Sung-kyun: Please turn on your microphone to communicate~
Meow~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Liu Shuyu's family
"Going to the beach? When? It must be so cold!" Zixian and Meiyu looked at Deoksun.
"Oh~ Shuyu said it~ It's not cold~ Wear something thicker, we're not going into the water~"
After finishing her snack, Deok-sun wiped her hands on her mouth and then on her pants.
Liu Shuyu stared speechlessly at the tissue he had just pulled out...
Never mind, I'll wipe my mouth myself...
"Oh! Seowoo, thank you~" Deoksun saw the tissue he picked up, took it from him, and wiped her mouth and hands~
Liu Shuyu: You're welcome...
Although the snacks weren't oily, I still felt that the area around Deok-sun's knees on her pants had a slightly worn, patina-like finish.
"Are you guys going? The car can carry three more people." Deok-sun asked.
"I can't go~" Meiyu was about to answer when Zixian said with a regretful look.
However, she quickly regained her composure and excitedly leaned closer to the two of them, saying, "Because I'm going to a social event in a couple of days!"
"A social gathering? With whom?" Deok-sun asked curiously.
