1st place in the ranking is the villager

– Volume 5 Episode 14

14. New Family (2)

The video Jae-gun Baek prepared was a video letter listing the memories of the two of them that he had left behind in the form of videos and photos while meeting Lee Ye-sook.

It did show up on the screen.

But why is Lee Ye-sook’s face being reflected on the screen after that?

Baek Jae-gun turned her head to Lee Ye-sook in search of an answer to that question.

She was holding Baek Jae-gun’s hand and staring at the screen.

Ye-sook Lee, who felt Baek Jae-geon’s gaze, met his and her eyes, and with a playful smile mixed with emotion, she pointed her finger at the screen.

He still didn’t understand the situation, but she followed Ye-Sook Lee’s finger and shifted her gaze back to the screen.

To understand the situation now, we need to go back a few days.

* * *

Choi Min-seok, an employee of My Wedding’s drawing room, My Wedding, was serving a unique combination of guests.

It was the first time in the history of My Wedding that a mother-son union came to visit.

And their needs were as unique as their unusual combinations.

“So… you’re saying that your mother wants to propose to Baek Jae-gun in reverse after intercepting the proposal requested by Baek Jae-gun?”

“Yes that’s right.”

“Why is the son next to me…?”

“Ha ha ha… I will. Why…?”

It all started when Baek Jae-gun asked Ho-young about Lee Ye-sook for a proposal.

He also knew a lot about Lee Ye-sook, but she was preparing for her proposal while checking through Ho-young to see if there was anything she was missing.

And Ye-sook Lee found out by digging for it to Ho-young, and Ho-young, who could not withstand the threat of her food, told Ye-sook Lee everything about her.

And after hearing the story, she decided to propose to Baek Jae-gun.

She wanted to give good memories to him who waited for her for a long time.

“Ummm… I’m sorry, but can I leave your seat for a while?”

“Yes, yes.”

Choi Min-seok left the Jangsi drawing room and headed to the room of Jo Han-cheol, the representative of My Wedding.

She went to him to ask for her advice, as Ye-sook Lee’s demands were her end, and she was too vague to decide for herself.

“CEO, this is Minseok.”

“Yeah, come in. But what’s going on?””That’s the truth…”

When Choi Min-seok conveyed what Lee Ye-sook said, Jo Han-cheol burst into laughter.

“Hahahahaha! Yeah, just do what your mother tells you to do.”

“Is that okay?”

“There is no problem in the end. My wife did the same thing to me. Oh, and I will take care of this customer myself, so Min-seok, you come in as an assistant.”

Jo Han-cheol went straight to Lee Ye-sook on the way and signed her contract with her on the condition that she pays the penalty that her My Wedding should pay to her Baek Jae-geon because of the breach of her contract.

After that, things progressed quickly on the date that Baek Jae-geon originally agreed to propose to Lee Ye-sook, and Ho-young had to keep going.

This is because Lee Ye-sook wanted Ho-young to sing her song at the celebratory performance included in her proposal plan.

Ho-young initially refused Lee Ye-sook’s request.

“Until elementary school, I was just making fun of her in front of her mom… Hoyoung, who sang while waving her arms while saying that she was going to follow the idol dance like this, was so cute… ”

“Hey, did you still have that video?! Oh, okay! I’ll do it, so delete it!”

However, at Lee Ye-sook’s threats, Ho-young had no choice but to accept her request.

Although Ye-Sook Lee erased the video from Ho-Young’s eyes, Ho-Young does not know that her original is still stored in her cloud.

* * *

Time passed, and on the day of the proposal, Ho-young was waiting for the end of the screening of the movie Lee Ye-sook and Baek Jae-gun were watching with the staff of My Wedding in the aisle next to the exit of the theater.

Hoyoung was preparing for a small musical performance with her staff, so she was wearing black suit pants and a pure white shirt, holding her bouquet in one hand just like them.

An incongruent wristband was wrapped around his wrist under the sleeve of his rolled up left arm, but that didn’t bother him too much.

“Are you that worried?”

As Hoyoung kept glancing at the exit of the theater where Lee Ye-sook and Baek Jae-geon were, Jo Han-cheol asked him.

Hoyoung shook his head horizontally in response.

“No, don’t worry. I know the feelings of the two of you very well. Still, it seems there is nothing I can do to be concerned.”

Ho-young, who had become a little acquainted with the staff of My Wedding while preparing for the performance, was having a small conversation with them.

As they left the theater, they were surprised to see Hoyoung and the staff of My Wedding waiting for guests, but when they put their fingers to their lips and made a gesture to be quiet, everyone smiled and walked away.

The door at the exit of the theater was left open, so I was able to get a peek inside through the camera I brought in to record the video.

After the video that Jaegun had prepared came out without the narration he put on the screen, a video letter from Lee Ye-sook was reflected, and Jaejoong was looking at the video with bewildered eyes.

When that video letter ended, it was time for Hoyoung and the staff of My Wedding to go inside.

By the time the video letter was finished, Baek Jae-gun’s eyes were already moist.

“Mr. Ye-sook…, this…”

“We’ll talk about it later. Jaegun knows that it doesn’t end here, right?”

What Lee Ye-sook prepared was not very different from the plan that Baek Jae-geon had prepared.

He knew that behind the video letter was a performance of My Wedding.

As expected, the singer Yakta’s song came out through the speaker, and My Wedding staff with bouquets entered the theater.

The only thing he didn’t expect was that there was Hoyoung between them.

He said he had a promise, but that promise was this.

“What kind of words should I say to be cool, and my behavior that is different from usual doesn’t seem strange.”

“I kept thinking about which place would be the best.”

“The first movie we went to together, this time I’ll confess.”

The staff of My Wedding and Hoyoung took a seat in front of the screen and started singing, one of them came up the stairs, took Jaegeon Baek’s hand, and led him to the front seat.

If Baek Jae-gun’s plan had gone as planned, it should have been Lee Ye-sook who would be holding her hand and being dragged away.

He could roughly predict why the situation had changed like this by seeing Hoyoung’s presence.

‘A boy has a light mouth!’

But it didn’t feel that bad.

He felt rather good.

“I think I’ll spend the night drunk without you.”

“Now I can’t imagine a single day without you.”

As Baek Jae-geon sat in the very center of the front seat, Lee Ye-sook approached Ho-young and handed her her microphone.

“Will you marry me?”

As Ye-sook Lee spoke the lyrics and took the ring out of her arms, Ho-young, who was dancing and the staff of My Wedding, knelt in front of him, held out a bouquet of flowers one by one, and surrounded him with flowers.

The ring presented by Ye-sook Lee had a unique shape, which was extremely thin and decorated with small jewels in the shape of a petal with a hollow center.

“Jae-gun, can you take out the ring that Jae-gun has prepared for you? Not mine, but Jae-gun’s.”

At Lee Ye-sook’s words, Baek Jae-geon seemed to be possessed, took her ring from her arms and handed it to her.

Lee Ye-sook, who was handed her ring, put the ring he gave her and the ring she had prepared.

Then, Baek Jae-geon’s ring, which had a simple shape with a small diamond in the center, merged with the ring Ye-sook Lee had prepared to become a small flower.

It was possible because I knew in advance the ring that Baek Jae-gun had prepared for My Wedding.

And while putting the rings together, the same part that Lee Ye-sook sang in the song that entered verse 2 came back.

“Will you marry me?”

“…Yes, of course. I want to marry Ye-sook and him.”

When Ye-sook Lee presented the two rings to Baek Jae-geon, he accepted Lee’s proposal with joy, holding back the tears that were about to fall.

Ho-young, who gave Baek Jae-gun a bouquet of flowers, and the staff of My Wedding, quietly left the scene immediately so as not to disturb them.

* * *”Hoya-sama, did something good happen?”

“Yes?”

Luna came up to Hoya and asked, while doing the last check before entering the dungeon to challenge the 6th section of the underground tunnel.

The corner of Hoya’s lips kept smiling, so he came to me out of curiosity.

“Are you about to tear your lips apart?”

“Ahahaha… did you get a lot of tea?”

“Yes.”

Lee Ye-sook’s proposal ended very successfully.

At the end, Hoya had to listen to Baek Jae-geon saying that he was a traitor, but it felt like it was a joke.

With the help of My Wedding, it was decided to prepare for the wedding, so Ye-sook Lee and Jae-gun Baek held each other’s hands and shared their feelings of joy.

And that was contagious to Hoya.

“What the hell happened in half a day?”

“It’s a private matter, so it’s a secret. Rather than that, I think we’ll be leaving now, should we move?”

Refusing to answer Luna’s question, Hoya followed the Royal Knights and plunged into a hole under the root of the tree.

After a while, the soil collapsed and they reached the front of the blocked wall, but they did not stop walking.

If they continued walking, they were sure to hit the earthen wall, but when they touched the crumbling earthen wall, they passed the earthen wall and went further inside.

As they repeated it, they stopped in front of the sixth earthen wall.

The earth wall was the entrance to each area, and the earth wall of the cleared area was passed without physical interference, and it was possible to advance to the next earth wall.

The road in between was a single road, but the distance was equal to the size of the area, so the more you clear the area, the longer it takes to reach the entrance.

To save time coming and going, I wanted to log out right in front of the entrance, but this place where the entrance to the underground tunnel is located was a non-logout area.

Previously, I tried an experiment on what would happen when Gangnam Fire Fist was forced to log out due to the access time limit, but when I logged in, it was said that the location was moved to the entrance of the dark forest.

[Enter the dungeon ‘Underground Tunnel – Area 6’]

From Area 6, it was really unknown territory.

They didn’t know anything about the structure of the tunnel or the strength and intelligence of the monsters, so their movements were more careful than ever.

As they marched forward, illuminating the surroundings with the light of a torch, they were able to reach a large space like a square in the middle of the tunnel without any problems.

Finding traces of tent-like installations in the mysterious plaza in each district and the 5th district, he was speculating that it might be a trace of a vampire inhabited.

“Are there a lot of things this time?”

“I will. So far, there have been only traces.”

In Area 6, household items such as a torn down tent and worn-out clothes remained.

For some reason, the shape of the tent was familiar. In a different situation than before, Bane suggested that we do a search, and Hoya and the guild members of the Royal Knights began to look around the square, and Hoya was able to find an item that caught his eye.
