Chapter 91

It seemed as if Lee Hwale was guessing at Min-kyung's worries. He pinched her cheek again and smiled, saying, "Don't overthink it. Oppa is still very confident about the work after a month. Even if that guy isn't honest, it doesn't mean others won't listen. Even if no one in the whole of Korea appreciates it, there are still foreigners, right!"

This time, Min-kyung didn't push away Lee Hwale's hand but asked blankly, "Foreigners? Oppa..."

"What?"

"Are you sick?"

"Snap!"

A snap of the finger harshly punished the 'disrespectful' younger sister. Lee Hwale looked at the time, which was almost twelve, stood up, and said, "I'll go change my clothes, and we'll go out for a meal later... No, forget it. There's still plenty of food in the fridge. Take it out and heat it up. Oppa still has to go to Hongdae!"

Min-kyung rubbed her forehead unhappily and watched as Lee Hwale went upstairs, muttering softly, "What's this? I came home so worried, and you hit me. Annoying Oppa!"

Standing up, Min-kyung walked to the door barefoot, put on her slippers, and then went to the kitchen. Opening the fridge, she saw a lot of food and was somewhat surprised.

Logically, with Oppa's culinary skills, which could conquer the world, he shouldn't be able to make these dishes. They didn't look like they were ordered either. As Min-kyung thought, her face showed a hint of tension.

...

After more than ten minutes, Lee Hwale came downstairs wearing a blue T-shirt and sweatpants. Seeing Min-kyung busy in the kitchen, he returned to the computer room, put the USB drive containing his songs in his shirt pocket, and then went back to the living room.

After a while, Min-kyung brought the food to the table. Looking at Oppa, who was already eating, her mind was a bit confused. She thought for a moment, sat down, and asked casually, "Oppa, did you order these dishes from outside? It's so rich, why didn't you buy some to bring to the studio?"

Lee Hwale was focused on the food. Hearing Min-kyung's question, he mumbled with a mouth full of rice, "Someone else made it!"

Hearing this, Min-kyung's eyes flickered, and she asked, "So amazing? Who? Do I know them? How about Oppa introduces me? I can learn a few things. Then we won't have to eat fast food all the time when we're at home!"

Lee Hwale suddenly stopped his chopsticks, looked up at Min-kyung, and his intense gaze made Min-kyung pout and look away.

"You have a lot of questions, don't you? It was Jeon Bora's birthday yesterday. She had a party here, and the food was made by Lee Ji-hyeon. But to be honest, I didn't expect her to be so good. It was a pleasant surprise. She's pretty, has a good personality, and great cooking skills. She would be an ideal wife, but it's a pity she's about to debut. Love seems to be out of the question for now. Otherwise, Oppa might have been tempted to make a move!" Lee Hwale said with a sigh, then ignored Min-kyung's reaction and continued eating.

Min-kyung's face changed several times due to Lee Hwale's words, and she finally let out a slight sigh of relief, though her face turned a bit red. She thought, 'Was I too obvious? Does Oppa suspect anything?'

"Oppa, you and Yoo Young-jin..."

"Don't call him 'senior' in front of me. Otherwise, even as a younger sister, you'll be punished!" Lee Hwale directly interrupted Min-kyung. Regardless of whether he chose to fight or not, he was really annoyed by Yoo Young-jin. The first time they met, Yoo Young-jin insulted him for no reason, and he gave him a small lesson. He didn't expect Yoo Young-jin to come back. Lee Hwale had a negative opinion of his character. No matter how talented he was, Lee Hwale wouldn't look at him.

Hearing her 'cheap' younger sister keep calling him 'senior' definitely affected his appetite.

Min-kyung knew Oppa's personality. Since no one was home, she simply said, "It's about the bet Oppa made with Yoo Young-jin online. Are you really not worried at all?"

"Don't worry. You should believe that Oppa is a genius (with a cheat). Having such a genius (with a cheat) as an Oppa, you should be happy. I'm full. Oppa is in a hurry, so I'll go first. Remember to wash my clothes before you leave!" Lee Hwale stood up and left the house in a hurry.

As for Min-kyung... she was used to it. With such a messy Oppa, she didn't know what to say. But at that moment, Min-kyung suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

Looking at the dishes and empty plates on the table, a spark of motivation flashed in Min-kyung's eyes.

"It's just cooking, I'll learn. And I can wash Oppa's clothes too!"

...

"That girl won't, right?"

"Maybe I'm overthinking it!"

Driving and muttering to himself, Lee Hwale had a bit of sweat on his forehead. He had originally planned to go with Min-kyung, but he was a bit scared by his own thoughts.

"Whatever, let's just focus on the two tasks at hand first!"

Putting aside these complicated thoughts, Lee Hwale drove to Hongdae.

...

At the same time, in a luxurious house in Cheongdam-dong, a woman looked at the empty room, feeling hollow. This woman was none other than Han Chae-young, who had recently been in the spotlight.

Throwing a stack of documents on the sofa, Han Chae-young slowly walked up the stairs and returned to her room.

"Bang!"

Falling heavily onto the large bed behind her, Han Chae-young's expression was very desolate. It had been about twenty days since she received the photos. From the initial shock, sadness, and anger to the final decision and the current conclusion, Han Chae-young now felt not so much sadness as fatigue and a sense of relief after the ordeal.

After the press conference, Han Chae-young disappeared. She stayed at Han Ga-in's house during this time, and the divorce was handled by her lawyer, without ever seeing Choi Dong-gun.

And Han Chae-young wouldn't let Choi Dong-gun off so easily...

According to Korean law, regardless of whose name the property is in, it should be divided based on the contribution to the marital assets. For jointly owned property, it should be divided according to the shares held. For property acquired during the marriage through the joint efforts of both spouses, even if it is in the husband's name, the wife's contribution to household chores should also be recognized.

There is also a right to claim damages...

After multiple failed attempts to contact her and under pressure from his family and public opinion, Choi Dong-gun finally chose to give up. To avoid further public criticism, he chose to compromise, divorce, and compensate, resolving everything within three days.
