Cheonma Wants to Live Quietly

The Yeon Household and the group were moving in a large boat.

Five large ships were mobilized, with the main people gathered on one, and the bodyguards escorting them aboard the other four ships.

Yeon Ha-rin rarely left the cabin.

Because of those who were anxious to do something with her whenever she went outside, she couldn’t calmly enjoy the scenery and it was bothersome.

But just because she was stuck in the cabin didn’t mean they were just going to wait.

They visited constantly, and each time they did they tried to appeal themselves.

Still, they were much better than Zhong Li-woong.

Zhong Li-woong used to show his desires directly, but they didn’t go to that extent.

“My lady, it’s almost time to eat.”

Said one of the bodyguards in the room.

All of Yeon Harin’s bodyguards were women.

So their skills weren’t that great. Perhaps yet, a capable female warrior was not very common.

There were a total of five warriors closely guarding Yeon Ha-rin.

Two of them were together in the room, and the other three stood at the door.

The warriors even took care of Yeon Ha-rin, but there wasn’t much to be concerned about since Yeon Ha-rin was a person who was low-maintenance.

All their work was just informing her of the fixed schedule like now, or finding out when something happened outside.

“When do you think we will arrive at the destination?”

“The schedule has not been fixed quite yet. As you know, we often stop in the middle… … .”

Yeon Ha-rin sighed and nodded.

She didn’t know why they were so intent on playing, that they would stop the boat and go out to the shore to spend time.

Even Yeon Ha-rin couldn’t keep being alone on the boat, so she hung out with them a couple of times, but every time she did she would get into a bad mood.

“I’ll skip today’s lunch.”

“You seem to skip meals too often these days. Shall I bring some dumplings at least?”

The bodyguard looked at Yeon Ha-rin with an anxious expression.

It seemed to contain sincerity, but Yeon Ha-rin knew that that was just an act.

Three of the five guards who followed this time were bought by Seomun, Gu Yang, and the Chu, respectively.

So, she had to place two people who weren’t, one inside and one outside the room.

She talked so softly, but she couldn’t be sure what she would put inside the dumplings.

In fact, it may not be that way, but she was still careful and there was nothing bad for being cautious.

“It’s okay. I’m not feeling well these days.”

The guard still said with anxiety.

“We arrive at Jingzhou soon. I was told that we will take a day or two to rest there, so I think it would be better for the young lady to take a break as well.”

Yeon Ha-rin smiled gently and nodded.

“Thank you. I will do that.”

Of course, she was really thinking of just taking a break. Unless there was an unavoidable situation.

* * *

“My lord, what is that?”

Soso asked Byeoktaesan with her curious eyes twinkling.

Byeoktaesan just passed the street and received a small piece of paper from someone.

And after checking it, he burnt it.

He didn’t even do it in secret. The giver was also proudly handed it over, and Byeoktaesan openly received, checked, and burned it.

So there was no way Soso, who was right next to him, couldn’t see it.

Of course, everyone who came together saw it as well.

Chun Chu Shin-ui was the only one who was able to identify the person who gave the paper to Byeok Tae-san.

He was a junior member of the Hao guild.

“It said that they will arrive at about one hour?”

At Byeoktaesan’s words, Soso blinked with a puzzled expression.

“What do you mean by that?”

“I was told that a ship departing from the Yeon household was arriving, I wondered if I should go and see it.”

At that, Soso’s eyes became like a lampstand. She grabbed her hands as if praying and looked at Byeoktaesan with her eyes full of tears.

Then she turned his head and looked at Yoo Seo-yeon.

Yoo Seo-yeon’s expression was also not very different from Soso.

“My lord, are you saying you planned all of this on purpose?”

Byeoktaesan’s face was distorted.

“No way. Why would I do such a troublesome thing? Do not misunderstand, I just go where I need to go freely.”

“Ah, you did. of course. Who will misunderstand our lord? Of course, you did.”

As it seemed that they wouldn’t believe him, Byeoktaesan just shut his mouth, turned around, and went to the dock.

The whole group looked at the back of Byeoktaesan with a mixed expression of curiosity and anticipation.

Then, as if something had come to mind, they looked at the two servants, Dan-young and Chaewol, who were together.

They were very cool about the situation.

It seemed as if this situation had nothing to do with them.

“Tsk tsk, to not even have this much tact.”

As Chun Chu Shin-ui said so, he walked and caught up to Byeok Tae-san.

Everyone looked at him with absurd expressions.

But nobody said anything. Anyway, the atmosphere got a little odd.

They slowly followed Byeoktaesan, keeping a little distance between them.

Chun Chu shin-ui glanced at his back and asked Byeok Tae-san.

“The Hao guild is cooperating with you nicely.”

“Because their weakness was caught. And you can do this much with money anyway.”

“Ah, but is it the same with money? Honestly, to me, it looks like the Hao guild is pretty much under you now. Isn’t it?”

“Annoying. I don’t have the time to think about stuff like that.”

“Of course of course? Do not worry, I’ll take care of it all. My lord just needs to do what he wants to do.”

Byeoktaesan suddenly stopped. And he stared at him.

The mysterious pressure was a bit embarrassing for Chun Chu Shin-Ui.

“W-Whats wrong, my lord?”

“You aren’t going around doing useless things right?”

“Of course not. I have no intention of doing that, and I don’t know how to be honest. I just want you to be safe and peaceful. Yes, of course.”

Byeoktaesan looked at him and walked again with a smirk on his face.

“Do whatever you want. Well, if you take responsibility, what can you not do. You can probably hit the back of Cheonma’s head with that attitude.”

“What are you mean? I can never hit a guy in the back of the head, really!”

Byeoktaesan stopped walking again. And he looked at him.

“You, you are hiding something huh?”

“I’m really not?”

“You swear on your spirit?”

“Please my lord, why do you keep insisting on swearing or betting something? Oh, didn’t you say it was about one hour? You are going to be late if we dawdle like this. Let’s make haste.”

Chun Chu Shin-Ui said so and took a hurried step.

Byeoktaesan looked at the back of Chun Chu Shin-Ui, smiled, and walked again.

“Don’t cause an incident. I’ll pull it out as much as it bothers me.”

Byeoktaesan muttered quietly.

As if he had heard the murmur, Chun Chu Shin-Ui trembled once.

He didn’t know what he meant by pull, but he was very scared regardless.

* * *

Yeon Ha-rin took a deep breath. And she cleared up her expression.

From now on, she wanted to show only the cold expression. She didn’t want to give them any room.

“My lady, we have arrived.”

Outside, one of the guards said in a slightly loud voice.

They have finally arrived at Jingzhou.

They said they would be staying here for a day or two, so she decided to stay in a lodging and stay in it until tomorrow.

In fact, it was okay to refuse to accompany them in the first place, but there were circumstances of the Yeon household, so she couldn’t do that.

But marriage between any one of them will never happen.

They weren’t asking to get married right away either way. They were also just testing the waters right now.

After checking herself for the last time, Yeon Ha-rin opened the door and went outside.

Not surprisingly, Seomunjaehak, Gu Yangsu, and Chu Younghak were all desperately waiting outside.

The three looked bright as soon as they saw Yeon Ha-rin.

It wasn’t just that but when Yeon Ha-rin appeared, it seemed that the surroundings suddenly became bright.

“We can get off now. They say they prepared all the accommodations, so let’s go and have some rest and enjoy.”

Seomyunjaehak came forward and said. Then the other two looked at him with unpleasant eyes.

“Come on, let us go.”

The moment Seomun Jae Hak was trying to say something more, Gu Yang-su stepped forward and stopped his words.

It was really fierce.

They kept checking each other even while getting off the boat, longing for Yeon Ha-rin’s attention.

Yeon Ha-rin wanted to go to the hostel quickly.

But the other people seemed to have no intention of doing that.

“Since we’ve just arrived, why don’t we go look around the surroundings for a bit before we go to the hostel?”

“That’s a good idea.”

The three looked at Yeon Ha-rin with anticipation. Not only that, the guards of Yeon Ha-rin looked at her with similar eyes.

In fact, they were also frustrated because Yeon Ha-rin did not move.

They wanted to take this opportunity to relieve their frustration and change their mood.

Yeon Ha-rin couldn’t refuse because of the strange pressure.

Those three men were a different story, but her guards deserved better.

Of course, that’s their job and work, but she was worried anyway.

At that time, a very familiar voice permeated her ears.

“My lady!”

Yeon Ha-rin turned her head in startling eyes and looked at the direction from which the sound came.

The owner of the voice was standing there.

However, it was the person that caught her eyes was the one standing behind Yoo Seo yeon.

Byeoktaesan was there.

Yeon Ha-rin stared at Byeoktaesan blankly.

As usual, she was looking at that side with a cold expression, but only after seeing his calm eyes she finally woke up.

“My, My lord?”

All kinds of emotions raged.

Gladness, love, gratitude, regret, anxiety…

Yeon Ha-rin took a step with all those emotions. She slowly approached Byeoktaesan.

As she got closer, she began to notice the people around him.

Among them, the people she knew the faces of were Chun Chu shin-ui, Soso, Cheon Gyeong-wan, and Yoo Seo-yeon.

There were three people whom she did not recognize.

Besides, two of them were beautiful enough to astonish Yeon Ha-rin.

Her anxiety grew a little more and her steps slowed a little.

Yeon Ha-rin forced those thoughts away. And she laughed brightly feeling only glad.

“What… What are you doing here?”

“I have something to do in Ho mu ryun.”

Yeon Ha-rin’s eyes widened.

“At Ho mu ryun? Are you also attending the meeting?”

Byeoktaesan smiled.

“No way. That is way under my league.”

The class was definitely different. Why would he go to where the next generation would gather?

Yeon Ha-rin, who misunderstood the words of Byeoktaesan, hesitated for a moment not knowing what to say.

In this case, it was best to talk about something else.

“There are people who I haven’t seen before.”

Byeoktaesan stared at Yeon ha rin who said that. He felt very strange.

This was the third meeting with Yeon Ha-rin.

But the first, the second, and the third now were all different.

Every time he saw her, she was getting more beautiful.

When he first saw her, he admired her beauty, but now it was to the extent that it surprised him.

In fact, there was no need to go to Ho mu ryun.

It didn’t matter if he just sent Il Chim Gui, and it was okay if they told him not to go at all.

Nevertheless, it was because of Yeon Ha rin that he came.

There was something he wanted to check.

However, after meeting her, he couldn’t figure out what to check.

Why did he want to meet Yeon Ha-rin, what made him act like this, and what was it he wanted to check?

“Are you… not going to introduce them?”

Byeoktaesan glanced at Danyoung and Chaewol and said.

“These two are my servants. You already know Soso right?”

Yeon Ha-rin nodded violently. Her gaze did not fall from Danyoung.

“By the way… She’s very pretty.”

“My servants are generally like that.”

Yeon Ha-rin tilted her head. It was because she felt something strangely stuck.

“And this person is a doctor.”

Yeon Ha-rin awoke at the words of Byeok Tae-san and looked at Il Chim Gui.

“He is a doctor?”

Yeon Ha-rin’s gaze turned to Chun Chu shin-ui this time.

There is an outstanding doctor already named Chun Chu Shin-ui, so it was hard to understand why he chose another one.

“I tagged along because he said there was something to do in Homu-ryun.”

“Ah… I see.”

Then Soso, who was watching with an impatient face from the side, whispered to Byeoktaesan in amazement.

“Please, my lord. Why did you say it like that? You must say you came because you missed her. You really don’t know anything. Even if you really did just tag along, you shouldn’t say so.”

Yeon Ha-rin looked at Soso blankly, not knowing what expression to have.

Byeok Taesan laughed at it.

“Did you just say that for her to hear it?”

“Ahh!”

Soso looked up at Yeon ha rin with an awkward expression.

It wasn’t deliberate at all, she had said it quietly enough to be inaudible. However, because Yeon Ha-rin’s martial arts skills were high, she had heard all of it.

Soso quickly turned away.

“Um, it’s really nice to see you like this anyway. Right?”

Yeon Ha-rin smiled softly as she saw Soso. She was a child who was always full of energy and dyed her surroundings with bright light.

Meanwhile, Byeoktaesan turned his gaze and looked at Yeon Ha-rin’s party.

From a while ago, the gaze continued to be felt.

Three men, who seemed to be pouring sparks from their eyes, were staring at him.

Byeoktaesan’s mouth was slightly raised.

“They are just horny kids.”
