Chapter 45

“It was already enough for me to grow up to a woman.”

“Are you?”

“Cheongwoon, let’s go inside instead of doing this here. A day like this has to be celebrated with a feast.” Mrs. Yoo dragged Cheongwoon inside. Will there be another day as happy as today! Today was a happy day that it would be a waste not to rob a barn!

Unlike the usual, the Yoo Family, who lived in modesty, hosted today’s feast which was very grand.

The gate was opened, so that everyone, regardless of status, could enjoy the food together. And thanks to them, both the inside and outside of the city were immersed in excitement.

The yard was full of laughter. The cheerful song enhances the taste of alcohol, but today’s main character, Cheongwoon, can’t even enjoy it properly.

Despite the fact that this was his feast for the first time in a while, his gaze continued to linger towards Haehwa.

‘Such a damn kid.’

At least once, it’s worth making eye contact, but Haehwa was constantly moving to prepare for the feast. She is now quite a Mistress to behave well with the servants.

However, it must be because she was busy, but Cheongwoon felt a slight regret. It was okay, Cheongwoon poured the bitter wine into his mouth.

After the long banquet, it wasn’t until late at night that Cheongwoon entered the room. Since I no longer have to go to war, I can let go of the heavy tension that has squeezed my whole body.

“I’ll go in for a while.”

From the door, a graceful voice, seemily like Haehwa’s was heard. Haehwa who came inside carefully, looked at Cheongwoon’s bed then prepared them.

“Are you tired? It’s been a long time since you’re here, so you can sleep comfortably.”

I wondered if she was coming to my side now, but Haehwa, who only said what she had to say, was quick to leave the room again. Cheongwoon’s eyebrows, which he had been enduring it all the time, finally frowned with dissatisfaction.

“Are you just going to go?”

“Of course?”

Rather, this time, Haehwa asked. Cheongwoon immediately became embarrassed by a very quick question. Is that the end or not? Just meet me in six years…?

But Haehwa really just greeted him then left.
