“After what you and your students have done, the Scarlet Tiger Boss will not sit still,” the old woman said in a raspy voice.
“Hmm?” Baek Suryong glanced up from his work, briefly meeting her eyes. Lately, he had holed himself up in the inn, relying solely on it for food and shelter.
The old woman placed a fresh bowl of somyeon in front of Baek Suryong and took a seat across the table. “Overnight, the Underboss and most of the Scarlet Tiger lieutenants were slaughtered. Some of them were even disciples of the Scarlet Tiger Boss, trained by the man himself… Hey! Even if you’re busy, you need to remember to eat!” she nagged.
Baek Suryong took a bite of the noodles, then quietly set his chopsticks down. “…Yuck.”
The old woman’s eyes narrowed, and she reached out to take the bowl away. “Yuck? Is that how you thank me after I went through the trouble of making this because I thought you’d be hungry? Hmph, if you don’t like it, then don’t eat it.”
Baek Suryong raised a hand to stop her. “Leave it. I’ll take a bite when I feel sleepy. Your somyeon’s perfect for staying awake.”
“You cheeky brat,” the old woman grumbled, then sighed, her expression darkening. “Anyway, what are you going to do now? You’ve made an enemy of the Scarlet Tiger Gang. That will force the boss to come out of his seclusion training soon.”
