Traveling back in time to take care of Sung Deok-sun

Chapter 163 Deok-sun, "Hard-Won"

Liu Shuyu's family

"You even have this video!" Jung-hwan looked at the mysterious large cardboard box that Yoo Seo-woo took out with an excited expression.

I immediately noticed one of the videos that was slightly 'colorful'.

"Shh~!"

"Keep your voice down!"

"It's perfect that Deok-sun isn't here today, let's go check it out quickly~" Liu Shuyu gave a knowing smile~

“Lock the door shut, so she can’t open it even if she comes over!” Jung-hwan suggested even more drastic measures.

"Maybe not~ You know, Deok-sun may not be smart, but she's incredibly strong~" Liu Shuyu said hesitantly.

Liu Shuyu thought to himself: It's not like you're the one being retaliated against by Deok-sun, of course you're not afraid...

"Then hurry up, at least finish watching it!" Jung-hwan quickly took out the video and started playing it after hearing what he said.

"By the way? Didn't I tell you to call Dong-ryong and Sun-woo? Where are they?" Liu Shu-yu locked the door to prevent a possible surprise attack by Deok-sun.

"Who knows what happened to him? The Donglong family didn't even open their door—and nobody answered when they called."

"Maybe they're still sleeping in?"

Jung-hwan was intently watching the movie playing.

"As for Sunwoo, you know he's either studying at home or studying outside~"

"I didn't see anyone either~"

"Oh~! But I saw Sung Deok-sun."

"She brought a friend back~ They probably won't be here anytime soon!"

"We can watch it with peace of mind now!"

Jung-hwan then realized that he had just run into Deok-sun when he went out, and said happily.

"Deok-sun? Friends?" Liu Shu-yu asked curiously. "Is it Zi-xian and Mei-yu?"

"Yes, yes, yes~ those two~ the ones I met last time~" Jung-hwan nodded. He remembered them from Apgujeong, those two people who were so enthusiastic it was almost scary~~

He was so scared that he kept drinking beverages and didn't dare to eat anything...

"At this time, is Paula still at home?" Liu Shuyu asked.

"Hey! Fine, don't bother looking then~ How would I know if Paula is even here~"

Jung-hwan was completely absorbed in watching the female lead's passionate performance on TV, his eyes practically glued to the screen, utterly oblivious to what Yoo Seo-woo was saying.

.........

Ten minutes ago, in Zheng Huan's yard.

Wow~ Sung Deok-sun~ Is this your home?

"Wow, it's huge!"

"As big as Maggie Cheung's house!"

Zixian turned to look at Deoksun with a surprised expression, while Meiyu also looked at Deoksun with curiosity. She never expected that Deoksun, who always said that she came from a poor family, would be so generous.

Deok-sun watched as Ja-hyun exclaimed in surprise, while Mi-ok looked like she'd been completely fooled.

"Our house... is downstairs... hehe..." Deok-sun gestured awkwardly downwards.

Zixian and Meiyu then followed her gaze and looked towards the entrance to the semi-basement.

"Ugh, this is so embarrassing! I didn't want to bring you guys along."

"But we're best friends~ We shouldn't be afraid for you to know~"

Deok-sun gave an awkward smile and explained.

"Hey~ what's with that look~ I really went all out to bring you guys back~"

Seeing that neither of them spoke, Deok-sun hurriedly spoke up.

"Oh dear~ What's wrong with being poor~"

"If being ugly is a crime, then we'd both be arrested long ago!"

"Look at you, you're so beautiful!"

Zhang Meiyu complained about her own appearance, then complimented Deok-sun, successfully making the easygoing Deok-sun happy immediately.

Zixian nodded in agreement with Meiyu's words.

Zixian never expected that Deoksun's family was even more impoverished than hers.

My own family was already poor, but I never imagined Deok-sun's family was even worse off—the whole family lived in a semi-basement!

Hearing Mi-ok's self-deprecating jokes and compliments about her appearance, Deok-sun instantly smiled again.

"Let's go in."

"I'll cook ramen for you guys on the stove~"

The two quickly followed Deok-sun, who was in a good mood.

"But you still use a stove?" Meiyu asked curiously.

"Oh? 'Man-Yu,' do you even know what ordinary people's lives are like, huh?" Deok-sun asked, her face falling, as she walked away.

"The stove works really well~ It heats up super fast~" Zixian quickly added after Deoksun, listening to Meiyu's 'rich person'-like question.

"Rich people's daughters, huh? So annoying!" Deok-sun retorted without holding back.

"Ugh~~ I know~" Mi-ok made a face at her sharp-tongued best friend Deok-sun from behind, sounding annoyed...

These three best friends are so good at understanding each other, yet they can also constantly roast each other...

“Oh~ Deok-sun! It’s him.” Zi-xian pulled Deok-sun as he walked in the middle.

When I looked up, eight eyes met.

The moment Jung-hwan turned his head to look down, he was so startled that he took a half-step back and jumped, immediately spotting Mi-ok's signature braces.

And Zixian's light yellow hair~

Meiyu quickly covered her mouth with her hand and greeted Zixian politely.

"Hello~"

"Y-you guys are hello~" Jung-hwan swallowed awkwardly.

"Hey, Jung-pal, so early? Where are you going?" Deok-sun asked curiously.

"I'm going to Shuyu's side~" Jung-hwan pointed to the alley, then politely nodded to Deok-sun and her two friends again, and went down the stairs to leave.

"Oh~" Deok-sun gestured for the two to follow, then suddenly remembered something and gave him a warning look, "Don't take Seo-woo to see anything weird!"

"What? What... what strange thing is that?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"I'm going to study!"

Jung-hwan rolled his eyes. "Me, watching that kind of stuff?"

I'm an innocent student, okay?

If anyone's going to watch it, it'll be Shuyu who shows it to me~

Liu Shuyu: He's slandering me! This person is slandering me!!

Liu Shuyu: You! A pure student? I didn't give you "Madame Emma," did I? And I didn't tell you to read "Intoxicating Adolescence," did I?

Jung-hwan: Oh dear~ everyone's watching, boys are watching~~ I'd be out of place if I didn't watch~~

Seeing Jung-hwan leave, Ja-hyun looked at Deok-sun with envy.

"Deok-sun~ Can I stay at your house too~"

"They're all handsome guys~"

"Him? Handsome? Pfft~" Deok-sun curled her lip. Having grown up together since childhood, there was absolutely no such desire between them. Their eyes were filled with mutual disdain. Without the support of love, they both felt that the other wasn't ugly, but definitely not handsome either.

"Let's go back~" Deok-sun called to the two of them and reached out to pull the door open.

"Squeak~~"

Deok-sun's hand landed on nothing, trying to grab the doorknob, but she grabbed nothing at all.

"Hello~X2" Wang Zixian and Zhang Meiyu looked at Bora standing in the door, quickly bowed 90 degrees, and politely greeted her.

Bora and Deok-sun looked at each other for a few seconds, neither of them moving aside.

A fraction of a second later, Deok-sun took a half-step back, giving them some space.

Bora still didn't come out; she just watched Deok-sun and the two of them.

"Come out quickly!" Deok-sun shouted at Bora in an annoyed tone.

Deok-sun: Don't back down in front of your friends!

"Hey!" Bora called out to Deok-sun, startling the two people who were standing awkwardly to the side!

"Be quiet at home and don't make a mess of the house," Bora said to Deok-sun.

"Heh~ You don't even sweep, yet you say things like that..." Deok-sun muttered with a hint of sarcasm, looking at Bora with an annoyance.

"What did you just say?" Bora took half a step forward with an unfriendly expression, and Deok-sun subconsciously took a step back.
