OF COURSE, Song Sihyuk was sad that Lim Garam hadn’t been sleeping with him ever since they took Seulgi in.
His wife had been staying in the baby’s room for ten days now.
That’s how long the baby has been with us now.
Song Sihyuk made sure that Seulgi’s uncle wouldn’t enter the picture again.
I hope he enjoys fishing in the deep-sea for the rest of his life.
On the other hand, that bastard’s wife had already been found.
Lim Garam asked him to take back Seulgi’s life insurance money from that woman, and so he did.
And, so, he did.
He also made sure that the woman wouldn’t appear before them again.
No, I didn’t kill her— I just paid her enough money so she would scram.
The woman was probably confused because the amount of money that he paid her was much bigger than the life insurance money that he took back.
Well, it wasn’t about the money.
To be honest, the amount was just cheap change to them.
However...
The life insurance money that Garam inherited from his parents was stolen by his stepmother, so he probably didn’t want the same thing to happen to the baby.
Hence, Lim Garam wanted to protect the life insurance money for Seulgi.
"Good morning, Hyung."
Oh?
Song Sihyuk was surprised to see Lim Garam already awake.
He had a breakfast meeting with his father, so he woke up and prepared for work early.
Hence, he didn’t expect his wife to already be up.
And it wasn’t just Lim Garam.
Seulgi and Song Gunwoo were also up early, and the two were playing with Bam.
His son was hugging the cat while letting the baby pet it.
"Good morning, Daddy."
Baby Seulgi looked up at Song Sihyuk and just smiled shyly.
"Good morning," Song Sihyuk greeted everyone. "But why are you all up so early in the morning?"
"Seulgi woke up early and asked for food, so I made porridge for her," Lim Garam explained with a smile on his face. "Gunwoo woke up early because he’s excited to meet his friends later."
Right.
Our son doesn’t have classes today.
"Where are you headed again, Gunwoo-ya?"
"I’m meeting with the Kim Twins to watch An Baekya’s play," Song Gunwoo said excitedly. "We’re also meeting with Yun Yuhyun."
"Son, why are you only hanging out with kids half your age?" Song Sihyuk said, knitting his eyebrows. "Don’t you have friends among your peers?"
"The kids in my class are just future business partners, Daddy. I haven’t found the people I can call my friends yet," Song Gunwoo said cheerfully, making Lim Garam frown. "With the Kim Siblings, An Baekya, and Yun Yuhyun, I don’t have to be cautious around them. After all, their parents don’t tell them to get close to me just because I’m your heir."
It was the same ordeal that Song Sihyuk had to face when he was younger.
That’s why I only have Seong Kyungmin as a friend.
And, recently, Kim Heedo.
Oh, wait.
"You don’t have the right to criticize our son for having younger friends since aside from Kyungmin Hyung, you only have Heedo as your friend," Lim Garam scolded Song Sihyuk. "Heedo is way younger than you, Hyung."
"Yeah, I just realized that now," Song Sihyuk said, and then he gently patted Song Gunwoo’s head. "It’s alright, Gunwoo-ya. You can’t force friendships, so it’s better to wait to meet the right people. If someone like me could have friends, I’m sure you can as well."
"I know, Daddy. That’s why I’m not in a hurry," Song Gunwoo said, smiling. "I know I’ll find true friends soon."
"Baby, I think you’re getting along well with Jeong Semin," Lim Garam said, smiling at their son. "He’s the same age as you, isn’t he?"
"I guess I can call him a friend," Song Gunwoo said, shrugging. "But Semin is a dangerous friend. I unconsciously keep him at arm’s length."
Song Sihyuk chuckled. "My son is really smart."
"I got my brains from Dad, Daddy."
Song Sihyuk nodded and agreed immediately. "Yes, of course."
Lim Garam smiled proudly, and then he stood up to fix Song Sihyuk’s tie. "You’re not going to have breakfast before you leave, Hyung?"
"Unfortunately, I have a breakfast meaning today," Song Sihyuk said, putting his hands on his wife’s waist. "But I’ll surely be home for dinner. Ah, maybe we should go out later?" He glanced at his son. "After you meet your young friends?"
Song Gunwoo’s face beamed. "Yes, Daddy!"
"Yes, Daddy..."
Huh?
***
Why am I often stuck with this brat these days?
Even if we each have our own partner to spend our rut with, we still need to take suppressants.
I don’t want to accidentally hurt my wife during my rut.
