Rebirth: King to Superstar

Chapter 132 - Hye-Su



"Hey, creepy bastard. What are you up to? Did you think I didn't notice you staring at me from here for the past ten minutes? The reason better be good or you'll get beaten up here in front of all these people." She sounded completely pissed off. 

Hearing her, Joon-won's body went stiff. He knew she was angry this time and him being already scared to even look into her eyes did not help at all. He slowly turned around like a robot and stood in front of her like a soldier. She was clearly pissed off as she stood there with an eyebrow raised and hands folded, waiting for an answer.

Joon-won just looked at her with complete nostalgia. Looking at her from that close made him realize how they both looked. The girl in front of him had the exact same long brown hair as his wife. The exact same facial features. Unknowingly, his hand slowly stretched towards her face as she started to scold him again.

"Hey, why are you acting deaf? Do you want me to beat you up and call the police too?" And stopped when she noticed his hand coming towards her face. Joon-won was still looking at her before he felt the world turn upside down in a shift moment and he closed his eyes.

He slowly opened his eyes when he felt a sharp pain in his back and right arm. He could see the cloudy sky and didn't know what happened for a second. Everything came together when he saw her face once again as she stood over him with his arm in her hand, twisted. The girl just threw him to the ground after seeing his hand.

"Ah!" He let out a grunt from the pain as everything which happened finally registered. His complete concentration was on her face that he didn't notice her throwing him. 

She held the hand he tried to touch her with a d said, "You are a really daring bastard aren't you? I already told you that I'll beat your ass up but you completely ignored it and even tried to touch me. How ignorant." As she tried to twist his hand a bit more. Joon-won grimaced a bit more from the twist as he tried to get up. But the girl was quick as she pushed him down on his back once again. 

"Come on, leave me. It kinda pains a bit. And see, everyone is also looking at me. I'll talk, so leave me for now." Joon-won noticed everyone on the mountain top looking at them and even saw a few people taking out their phones to record his ass getting beaten. So he just wanted to simply get out of the awkward position he was in.

She instead huffed and said, "What if you try something like that once again? You are a scum, so I can never be too sure. Just be like that and talk. So tell…." But before she could continue, they heard an old voice shout.

"Hye-Su. What are you doing? Did you just throw that poor man down like that? Come on, stop it now. I already told you to not use your power like this except in the ring. Help that man up and both of you come inside. We need to have a talk about this." Both of them looks to the source of the sound and noticed it was an old man standing in front of the restaurant with his stick pointed at them.

The hold on Joon-won's hand loosened as the girl called Bye-Su, who looked exactly like his wife, said, "But grandfather, this guy is a Barbarian, he tried to.."

The old man didn't want to have any of her reasons as he just cut her off and said, "I know what kind of person you are Hye-Su. Leave the hold on that man. Look at how everyone is looking at both of you. It also looks like that man is in pain. So bring him in, you injured him, so you got to treat him too. Did you forget our family motto? I told it to you before I taught you." 

Hye-Su, gritted her teeth as she listened to her grandfather and left Joon-won's hand. Joon-won exhaled in relief as he slowly stood up. Her throw was quite strong as he could feel that his back was actually bruised. If it wasn't for his 2-month gym sessions he was sure there might have been bones broken with his before lanky built.

"You are so dead after we are out of grandfather's sight," Hye-Su murmured into his ears as she supported Joon-won towards the restaurant under her grandfather's keen gaze. Joon-won sighed hearing her. This Hye-Su had the same exact hot-temper and revenge mind as his wide Zen Quin, seeing all this he felt his eyes become watery.

Hye-Su didn't hear any response from the guy as she lifted him and turned towards him to only see him almost cry while looking at her. This made her think if she used too much power to throw the guy but shook her head and thought all of this was just some meaningless tactics before dragging him inside the restaurant. 

As they entered the old man was right behind him and gave another instruction towards Hye-Su, "Take the kid towards the living room. Help him apply some of the pain relief ointment we have." Hye-Su simply nodded before she continued to help Joon-won. They went behind the restaurant and entered a small room. 

Joon-won looked around and noticed this place was actually a small house. He noticed a kitchen, a bedroom too. Hye-Su looked around before she threw him down once again. Joon-won grimaced once again as fell on the hard floor again. She looked at him as he tried to get up and just went inside the bedroom. Joon-won slowly sat and just continued to look around the house. 

As he was looking around he heard footsteps get closer and just looked down as Hye-Su entered the living room once again with an ointment tube in her hand this time. Joon-won just looked down as he didn't want to piss that girl off more again. Every time he saw her, he couldn't help but recall memories of his wife and act like an idiot. He already also made the worst first impression on her and didn't know how to talk with her now.

Hye-Su stared at him for a second and threw the ointment before him before saying, "Put it on yourself." And walked away again. Joon-won picked up the ointment and took off his shirt. His back and arms were paining a bit and he can't walk down the mountain for another 2 hours with the pain. So he just decided to use the ointment she gave. 

Taking off his shirt, he first looked at his shoulder, which was slightly purple in color because that was the place she grabbed him tightly to throw him down. Squeezing out a bit of the ointment, he applied it on the shoulder, which not trying to make a single sound. 

As he was applying, he heard a door open and looked to see the old man come inside. The old man looked at him before he went inside the kitchen and came out with two glasses of water. 

He sat down and kept a glass of water in front of Joon-won before he said, "What did you do young man? I know my granddaughter is short-tempered and loves to fight. But she isn't so unreasonable to start a fight with a random man." 

Joon-won looked at the old man's kind face and said, "I just wanted to look at her. I don't know why but I just wanted to look at her. Unknowingly, I tried to touch her face, and she threw me down. It was I who started the entire mess. I'm sorry." He can't say that she looked like his wife, that would just make him look mental. So he just decided to act like an idiot. 

The old man just looked at him before he laughed out loud and said, "Hahahaha you are weird, young man. You just wanted to keep looking at her? Well, look where it got you now. Bye-Su, come out now. Don't stay in the room. I still need you to apologize to this young man now." As he looked into the room and shouted.

There was no reply from the room and so the old man continued, "If you don't come out now, I won't allow you to participate in the upcoming tournament." And then both heard a series of footsteps as Hye-Su came in and complained.

"That's totally unfair, grandfather."
