As the saying goes, "A mother worries when her child travels far," Hong Yuro secretly gave Li Shenglin a key to her second home while visiting him in the hospital.

As a potter, the artistic atmosphere of Hongdae naturally became Hong Yuro's first choice. Li Shenglin was very satisfied with the place, which was conveniently located. The two-bedroom apartment had been newly renovated, and there was a coffee shop downstairs with good coffee. The business wasn't doing well, so it was very quiet...

The word "confused" seemed to always accompany Li Shenglin recently. Indeed, Li Shenglin in the bar was very confused. It was summer break, so he didn't have to go to school.

He was confused about what to do with his future. In his previous life, he wasn't confused; he just wanted to pursue a family, even though he failed, at least he had a goal. But now he was confused. He had a strict father, a kind mother, and two younger sisters.

Continue to mess around? That was ridiculous. He finally had a family, why would he go out and mess around, causing his family to worry? Besides, after so many years of messing around, his heart was tired. Otherwise, he wouldn't have liked coffee shops so much in his previous life.

Forget it, no more thinking. Just live one day at a time. Maybe things would be better when school started. He had just completed the transfer procedures and couldn't stay at his old school anymore. Since everyone knew his past, starting a new life in a new environment wasn't bad.

Maybe he could be a good student, study hard, and get into Sungkyunkwan University. He wasn't sure if it was due to his natural talent or the benefits of reincarnation, but when Li Shenglin moved, he accidentally flipped through the textbooks and found them not so difficult.

Feeling as if he had figured things out, his mood greatly improved, and Li Shenglin drank bottle after bottle in the corner, completely forgetting the lessons of his reincarnation.

Logically, after that ridiculous video, Li Shenglin's cool appearance in the nightclub should have been easily recognized. How could it be so quiet? A closer look revealed:

His fiery red, spiky hair had been dyed black and softened, covering half his face. Perhaps due to high male hormones, he had a scruffy beard after just over a month without shaving. He wore a large black-rimmed glasses and a dull yellow plaid shirt, making him look like a weathered uncle getting drunk...

What? Under 20 can't drink in Korea?

You look at least 30...

On his way home, the drunk Li Shenglin idly called the Li Shenglin in China, but it was a disconnected number. For some reason, he didn't feel sad, but rather relieved.

In a daze, Li Shenglin heard a woman's cries for help as he passed through an alley. As a qualified thug, Li Shenglin decided not to interfere, but his curiosity still made him look inside.

As a result, one look led to a trouble that would affect Li Shenglin's entire life.

"Hey, what are you looking at, you dead drunkard! Get lost!" Three young men preparing to do something bad shouted at Li Shenglin.

What the hell, there are really some people who don't know when to quit. In two lifetimes, no one had ever dared to talk to him like that.

...

The result was predictable. Ten minutes later, out of the five people present, only the woman was left standing. The three were beaten, and Li Shenglin, after a bit of exercise to accelerate his blood circulation, fell asleep...

Lee Ji-hyun felt very unlucky today. She had just finished shooting a commercial and had a gathering with friends. On her way home, she encountered some robbers. If they were just after money, it would have been fine, but from the looks of it, they wanted both money and her. Her first time, in such a place, with three bad guys...

Just as she was about to give up, a drunk uncle passed by. She hoped he would hear her cries and call the police, but the foolish uncle actually came over because he was provoked.

It wasn't realistic for one against three, but there was a video online recently where three people beat ten. Especially that red-haired young man, he was very skilled. But this uncle was clearly drunk, so it seemed she was doomed today.

But what happened next left Lee Ji-hyun speechless. The drunk uncle actually beat the three thugs without getting hurt. It was clear that if he hadn't been drunk, the fight wouldn't have lasted more than three minutes.

Feeling safe, Lee Ji-hyun's slightly mischievous nature emerged. It seemed that true masters were among the common people. Should she ask him to be her master and learn incredible martial arts to surprise her friends, HOHAHA.

But in reality, after beating the three thugs, the uncle just looked at her and then fell asleep...

Lee Ji-hyun was speechless...

What to do? Take him home? She couldn't explain it, and she might be beaten to death...

Go to a friend's house? She would be gossiped to death...

Go to a hotel? Even if she wasn't famous, she was a commercial model, and she wanted to become a top star. If her face was recorded, she would have a sea of anti-fans...

So, she made a decision. Pinching his nose and tickling his armpits, she finally woke Li Shenglin up.

"Hey, uncle, where do you live? I'll take you home, don't catch a cold, thank you for saving me!" Lee Ji-hyun said sincerely.

Li Shenglin seemed to wake up. There was a woman in front of him, or were there two? He couldn't hear clearly... continue sleeping...

Lee Ji-hyun was stunned...

Continuing to pinch his nose and tickle his armpits, but it seemed he had developed resistance, so it didn't work. She had no choice but to use her ultimate move, buying a bottle of mineral water and pouring it on Li Shenglin's face.

Looking at the dazed Li Shenglin, Lee Ji-hyun was a bit angry, "Tell me, where do you live?"

Li Shenglin, as if back to his thug days when the police were patrolling, reflexively reported his current address, then... snore... snore...

After great effort and enduring strange looks from others, Lee Ji-hyun finally threw Li Shenglin onto his bed.

She wanted to leave, but since he was her savior, she decided to leave a note and thank him later.

"Water..."

The weak request for water interrupted Lee Ji-hyun's thoughts. She decided to take care of him first. It was a fair exchange, you help me, I help you, HOHO, her mischievous nature emerged...

In a daze, Li Shenglin felt very comfortable. His home felt so good, and he could smell a woman's fragrance...

His thoughts seemed to return to the day his girlfriend broke up with him, "You broke up with me for some idol, that's too much. Weren't you going to remain chaste for him forever? Let's see how you do it today!"

Lee Ji-hyun was stunned. What a cliché plot... I don't want to be a scapegoat. She struggled fiercely. But it only stimulated Li Shenglin. If she hadn't struggled, he might have fallen asleep, but her struggle made him a bit more awake...

So...

A beastly act occurred...
