The Black World's
Chapter4:New teacher
After I managed to recover my business, now I can relax a little while having fun in
club. Today I will get drunk and throw away all the burden of thought that has been lodged in my brain for this week. How life is so difficult.
“I ordered one tequilla and cheese burger.” I said to the bartender. Today the atmosphere of the club is very crowded. Many couples are spending their time here, whether it's dancing, kissing, or foreplay in the corners of the room. I don't know, I don't care.
Fifteen minutes later a bartender put down my tequill and a plate of mouth-watering cheese burgers. Hmm, its look so yummy. Really really hungry. I grabbed the fork and knife impatiently and immediately stuffed the big piece of cheese burger into my mouth. “Hmm, yummy.” racauku unclear. I enjoy every bite of burger in my mouth. The savory taste of cheese just melted on my tongue. Then this thick slice of beef made it all feel so perfect for my starving stomach. I haven't eaten a burger in a long time. After the attack I continued to work and work to recover my almost destroyed business. There is no time to enjoy the food. Usually I just ask Minhyuk to buy me curry from a store near the port.
“You look very happy.” A voice from a man came to disturb my pleasure. I lazily turned my head towards the source of the sound. It turned out that the pretentious general, what would he want to come here?
“What's up? I'm busy.” my sniffles at him. Kulirik peggerakannya at a glance, and he just with his fucking take place next to me. But I don't give a shit! I sipped my tequill casually and I resumed my delayed eating due to his sudden arrival here.
“Tequilla? Turns out you're pretty tough too.” said the man dismissively.
“Hah, if you come here just to comment on me, you better go home. I'm in no mood to chat with you.” I was rude.
“I'm here because I want to meet you.” said the man flat. I did not respond at all and chose to gulp my tequill.
“Bring me a martini.” I asked the bartender who approached me. After eating a serving of burger, I want to taste a little lemon in my drink.
“You should not drink too much alcohol.” growled the man beside me. He looks like he's squeezing his jaw in anger.
“I told you to stop meddling in my life. You better go back to your base and protect this country from chaos.” I'm upset.
“You are one of the messes I have to deal with.” replied the general flatly. All right, I realize that I'm the scum of society, a mafia leader whose existence is always linked to various crimes that occur in this country. Then why from yesterday did he not catch me?
“Then catch me. You want to put me in jail, don't you? Just do it, I'm not afraid!” I said indifferently. When viewed from his movements, he did not seem to bring his men here at all. This man came empty-handed, unarmed, and without a uniform with thousands of badges that looked sick to his right and left arms as usual.
“I will indeed catch you and take you to the altar.”
“Yes God, why are you talking about that shit again. I don't want to marry you. We are like water and fire, forever will never unite.” I said annoyed. How many times do I have to tell this young general? He's a very stubborn type of guy I think.
“But I had to do it to protect you. Someone has entrusted you to me.”
“Who said that to you? I'm an orphan. I have no family at all.”
“Now you are a kara. But what about five years ago? You still have a father don't you?” ask the man with a grin. My heart ached once again when I remembered my father. He died because he was killed by someone. Until now I never knew who killed my father. However, I also did not try to find out because it would hurt me.
“Do not try to bring up my past. I'm not in the mood to talk about it.”
“Your father told me to take care of you. He was my former coach at the military camp.”
What other shocking news is this? I never knew if Dad was a member of the military. “Really? Are you tricking me?” manyaku. I watched every facial expression he showed, but he did not imply any lies at all.
“If you think I'm lying, then you're wrong. Before your father died, he met me and gave me a letter, he asked me to take care of you. All these years I've been looking for you, and I accidentally found you shooting my sniper.”
“What is the proof if you don't lie?” tanyaku. I still doubt this man's honesty with me. The bullshit sounds like a joke on April mop day that I used to often tell lies with my friends
“I brought your father's handwriting, you can see it.” The general took out a piece of shabby paper from his suit pocket and gave it to me. I open the paper slowly. There there exists
ink scratches that are very similar to father writing. At the end of the letter was also a signature of the father that looked genuine. I thought it would be very difficult to forge a father's signature which I thought was quite complicated.
“Why didn't you ever talk to me about this?”
“Because you are too busy having fun.” replied the man was cold and flat. I blinked confused eyes at him. There were still some things stuck in my mind about my father.
“Why did dad become a mafia if he was the defender of the country?”
“That's funny. You don't know anything about your father? How did you guys live together all this time?”
“Dad is a closed person. I rarely invite you to talk, and vice versa. But I really regret that. When there was a lot of time to talk, I didn't take a chance
that's. Then suddenly my father left me. The sudden departure of my father had depressed me for a month. I can't forgive myself for never caring for my father, so I tried my hardest to keep my business, because that's the only thing my father left me.” My eyes have blurred because of the many tears that pool in my eye bags. I wanted to shed tears, but I was too ashamed of this man in front of me. My whole life I haven't
I once cried in front of a man. All this time I've managed to hide my feelings, the fragile feelings I've always harbored.
“If you love your father, then marry me. If you marry me, I can run your father's will and oversee your business. I promise I won't ruin your business. I will hide your identity.” said the gentle man. Whether it was just my hearing or because of the others, but that guy actually said it softly.
“Why did my father work as a mafia? You haven't answered my question.”
“Then Mr. Im was a reliable military member, he was always an idol in his camp. I as a new member was always amazed at his figure. Lucky I was at that time for having the honor to be
his student. Every day we trained together, even after I was made a General, your father was always by my side. He was like a father to me. One day he told me, if he had any other business, it would be to smuggle goods to another country. Of course I was very surprised, a member of the military had an illegal business and became the boss. I was angry with him, but he explained to me, the attempt was made not to commit a crime, he did it to trap
ministers who use the services of their business. Since your father didn't use his name as the name of a mafia leader, your father always made his right hand the name of a mafia leader. So your father is always safe.”
“What father's right hand is Choi Daegu?”
“Yes, Choi Daegu, Choi Minho's father. But at that time I still disagree with all the reasons thrown by your father, however it remains a crime. The next year, one of the ministers seemed to know your father's great secret, then the minister devised a plan to kill your father vilely.”
“Do you know who that minister is?” tanyaku. Both of my hands were already clenching furiously while squeezing both ends of the dress attached to my body.
“It's still in my investigation. I'm having trouble tracking him down, because he's an influential person. It was more than five years ago anyway, so I don't know if the minister is a minister or not. But I promise I'll still find out who your father's real killer is.”
“Why didn't dad ever tell me this?” muttered
slow down. Either the general can hear it or not.
“Because your father wanted to protect you. It seems like the people in the military don't shun if Mr. Im has a daughter. Your father loves you very much and his country.”
“Then what should I do? It seems like my business is growing in a negative direction and not in accordance with my father's wishes.”
“Ya. But the project was not with my consent, Minho did. I only accept goods smuggling services.”
“You have to straighten that out. Don't get this business
get off the path your father wants. Do you understand?” ask the man
emphatically. The arrogant and powerful side reappeared.
“Yes, I understand. Thank you, now I understand.” I replied a little lethargic. With dad's secret being revealed, I'm getting confused and dizzy. I don't know what I'm doing right now because all this information came suddenly from someone unexpected.
“So do you want to marry me? I will protect you and your business. I won't ruin your business unless you're completely out of bounds. How?” The offer was very difficult for me. Can we possibly be together and live together? Although now I know my real business purpose, but I feel like I'm still a bad mafia. All this time my life has been surrounded by black things, and I still doubt this man.
“Married is easy, but how do I feel? Can we just live on dad's will?” tanyaku. I returned the man's gaze more sharply. I'm trying to find
lies or doubts in his eyes. But nil, the man he had eyes full of earnestness.
“This feeling will present itself. You just need to be by my side and do everything according to my orders.” Huh, what should I tell him? God, help me. It's a very difficult choice for me. “Alright, I'm ready.”
End Flashback
“Hey, are you daydreaming?”
That cold, flat voice disturbed my long daydream. I blinked my eyes twice and found Donghae oppa sitting sweetly next to me.
“Oppa, when did you come home?” manywould be surprised. The man casually sipped his coffee then read his morning newspaper. He didn't mind my question at all.
“I just arrived and got you daydreaming, what's up?”
“No, I was just thinking about the ambush yesterday. Why did you send your men to my club? I worked so hard to build that club, and you're gonna destroy it?” just pissed. I still clearly remember some of his men who sneaked a gun at my club in Gangnam. Good thing yesterday I closed my club, because I used to lead the annual meeting of the Black World organization.
“I purposely directed them to Gangnam because they sniffed out your headquarters in Incheon. If I don't direct them to Gangnam, they'll destroy your Incheon headquarters and thwart the dealings made by Cho Hajung. Have you printed the payment receipt?”
“Already. Are you going to investigate the case now?”
“Looks like I can't, the day after I have to lead the attack to Iran.” replied the man casually. Wait, he's going to Iran? Looks like Cho Hajung also smuggled something into Iran. But I'll get it first.
“How long?”
“Now, if the rebel is conquered, then my task will be quickly completed. You don't do weird things when I'm not around, do you understand?”
“Yes, I understand. By the way Minho was already a little suspicious of me. He always invites me to have fun at the club, but I don't want to. What if he finds out I'm married?” manya panic. This can be very dangerous. If my men find out, they could have rebelled against me.
“You rest easy, I've put some people to watch over Minho. You're safe now. Maybe once in a while you can accept his offer to just hang out. Remember just get together, don't get drunk or do other non-essential things.” Donghae oppa said full of warnings. I nodded my head obediently and next I prepared a plate and also rice for breakfast.
“May you like. This is my first meal for you. So if it doesn't taste good, you shouldn't be afraid to say it.” I looked at Donghae oppa with an anxious look. All this time it was only Aunt Han who always prepared the dishes for us. I didn't want to go to the kitchen or just make tea. Especially at the beginning of our marriage. My household every day is filled with commotion. The sweet things between me and Donghae oppa had just happened after I realized my true feelings.
“Enak. Not bad for a beginner.” comments Donghae oppa flat. I pulled the corners of my lips and ran to hug her.
“Oppa, thanks. I will cook you more often. I hope you can return from Iran safely.” I said on his shoulder. Donghae oppa turned around and stroked me
my back is soft. His large hands provided warmth for me.
“Keep trying, and don't get out of your bounds.” I nodded slowly in his arms. Huh, I will miss this hug a lot for the next few days.

Two days later Donghae actually left Yoona. The man must lead an attack on the Iranian forces that are about to attack Korea. Fortunately, Donghae acted quickly by setting up several troops and leading a direct attack on Iran. Donghae does not want his country to be a place of bloodshed. He did not want any civilians to be victims. It is better for Donghae to die in another country to save his countrymen than for him to die in his own country.
“General Lee, you look uninspired today. Are you hard on doing a farewell with your wife?” Hyukjae with an annoying look came closer to Donghae to tease the man. Hyukjae's eyebrows go up and down, making Donghae want to hit Hyukjae's disgusting face with a shotgun.
“Shut up! I was thinking of a strategy.” replied Donghae Ketus. Donghae returns to the map of the location of the attack in Iran. He ignored Hyukjae who continued to roam around him.
“Hae, why have you never brought Yoona to headquarters?”
“For what? He has his own busyness.” replied Donghae indifferently.
“But many don't know if you're married. Don't you intend to announce it?” hyukjae asked sounding enthusiastic.
“No. You don't have to use your wide mouth to spread gossip. If until you do, I will shoot you right then.” threatened Donghae horribly. Hyukjae just chuckled at his place. Being Donghae's friend for years made Hyukjae not afraid of the threat posed by Donghae. The man instead walked up to Donghae and patted the man lightly on the shoulder. “I won't do it. You take it easy, I respect your decision.”
Whatever Hyukjae has to offer, Donghae seems unconcerned. He just left, leaving Hyukjae, who was still showing an annoying smile behind him. From afar Donghae smiled in a knot and resumed his journey towards the cockpit. It seems they have entered Iranian territory.

Yoona was busy checking the shipment they were going to send today. Accompanied by Choi Minho and several warehouse officers, Yoona checked the contents of the cardboard boxes in the warehouse.
“Who asked for our services today?” ask Yoona to Minho. Every now and then he opens the contents of the cardboard intending to find out what is inside.
“Minister Cho Hajung.” replied Minho briefly. He showed me some of the latest explosives and rifles. Yoona furrowed her brows suspiciously. All of these weapons are not yet owned by the South Korean army. Yoona knows all that because Donghae once gave her a list of weapons the South Korean military had on her.
“Can't this be shipped to Iran?”
“Yes. The plan this afternoon is that our ship will bring it along with export goods that will be sent to Iran. We're gonna hide this weapon among the pile of food.”
Soon Yoona's face turned pale. It's entrapment. Since the beginning Iran has been expecting this attack and they have been buying illegal weapons from Cho Hajung to destroy the South Korean army
he is currently on his way to the Iranian base. “The minister is a traitor.” muttered Yoona angrily as she clenched her two hands hidden inside her pants pocket tightly. Soon Yoona must make a move to save Donghae and his army, or they will die in vain due to betrayal from their own minister.
