Chapter 191: The Diary (1)

After making sure Mae Geuklyom was truly gone, Baek Suryong released his bone-contortion technique and stretched, sighing, "Man, I was terrified he'd catch on… I'm definitely not doing that again."
Luck had been on his side tonight. If the ever-perceptive Mae Geuklyom was his normal self, no matter how well Baek Suryong disguised himself, his grandfather would have seen through the ruse. But tonight, Mae's mind was elsewhere, and he'd drunk more than he usually allowed himself, dulling his judgment.
Forgive me, but if I'd asked you directly, you'd never have told me the truth.
Prideful as Mae Geuklyom was, he would never show his weaknesses, especially not to family.
I'll have to explain this to Jicheon's grandfather later too, Baek Suryong thought, chuckling wryly at the thought of Wiji Yeol's face when he learned that he suddenly had a new a drinking buddy. Still, given that it was his request, Wiji Yeol would probably play along.
"Honestly… who would have thought that both my grandfather and father were such tiresome folks," he muttered to himself, glancing up at the same crescent moon that Mae Geuklyom had gazed at mere moments before.
Deciding to give Mae Geuklyom and Baek Muheun some private time to have a long overdue talk, he delayed leaving for the rendezvous point. He could have easily hid somewhere while they talked, but somehow it didn't feel right.
"Well then… they should be done by now. Time to get going."
