Chapter 58

But Young-young didn’t know. Embarrassed, she reached out and touched Sa Heon-yeong’s mask. Sa Heon-yeong leaned his back and laid his face down.

“I will. No, just because they came to see me, I was wondering if they had something to say.”

“Then you’ll be meeting them from time to time? Now you’re breaking your promise.”

“No, I won’t do that. Hmm?”

Young-young shook her head again and again. Was she doing that? It seems like it was for a while. She faltered, but Sa Heon-yeong never said anything wrong. So he would be right.

“You’re not going to do that now?”

“Yes.”

“You’re not going to see them again, are you promising that?”

“Huh.”

Song Geun-ryang was surprised. That idiot was almost speaking casually, but the Demon King was still polite to her. It wasn’t just the conversation. The Demon King was very polite. 

When the sick Emperor resigns from the front line, the powerful ruler of the main court, who divided the Crown Prince and the imperial court, complains in a tone that seems to drip with honey. 

Then the idiot said she couldn’t help it, and promised him over and over that she wouldn’t do it, and he comforted her.

“Are you going to go in right away then?”

……But she hasn’t heard a word yet?

Young-young was in trouble. Even so, her father must have had a purpose in coming this far, and since they will never see each other again, she will have to listen to it…….

“…… I must have troubled the wife. Well, the father who gave birth to you must have been more precious than me. If you had said that from the beginning, I wouldn’t have been so greedy.”

Young-young was surprised by Sa Heon-yeong’s lonely words, and immediately denied it by saying, “No, no!” How could her father be more important than Sa Heon-yeong? Who is more precious than Sa Heon-yeong? 

His Majesty the Emperor was the highest person in the world, but Sa Heon-yeong was the highest and most precious to Young-young. How can he say that?

“No, it’s really not.”

“…….”

“I won’t listen. I’ll go in now. I’ll never see them again. I’ll make a promise. I did it because I didn’t know. I didn’t know if it was okay if they came to meet me. I’m going in now. I will go in.”

Young-young comforted Sa Heon-yeong telling him continuously that she’ll go in.

Sa Heon-young smiled bitterly. Of course he wasn’t angry and he wasn’t actually upset either. But it was nice to hear Young-young, who thought he was upset, comforted him by surprise. 

What’s good about a husband who can’t even let the wife’s biological father meet? But Young-young kept telling him to not be upset because she’ll never see them again.

Sa Heon-yeong slowly tilted his head to the side and asked, “Will it be okay?” 

WIth those words, Young-young nodded her head several times, saying yes, yes, without thinking twice. Her father must have come because of a business, but she has no choice but to do it. Whatever the case, she didn’t want to upset Sa Heon-yeong.

“Instead, I will listen to my in-law’s affairs.”

Sa Heon-young said as if he knew what Young-young was thinking. Young-young’s eyes widened.

“Really?”

“Yes. It’s Young-ah’s father’s affairs. For some reason.”

Sa Heon-yeong looked at the two pairs of men and women standing behind Young-young’s back and looked at Song Geun-ryang.

“I will listen carefully to why they have visited at such a time and let the wife know. Don’t worry, Young-ah.”

The voice towards the queen was friendly, but the gaze towards Song Geun-ryang was terrifying.

Song Geun-ryang was amazed. The idiot laughed, saying that it was a relief, and walked down the road and disappeared. It was an instant. The maids also hurriedly left with the idiot. They seemed to have noticed that the owner’s anger was uncommon. It was only the idiot who didn’t know that.

But it’s strange. At first, he wondered why that idiot seemed to be useful, but his attitude is so sweet. Rumor has it that the Demon King loves his queen very much and will do anything for her, was it true? Song Geun-ryang thought to himself if this might be of any help to him.

“Soye.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“Wife has no guests.”

“I will keep that in mind.”

Sa Heon-young walked at a pace that was neither fast nor slow, and sat down at Young-young’s seat. 

The handle, which was carved from ivory, was smooth. Caressing the handle on which a lily was carved, he thought of Young-young for a moment. To be precise, Young-Young’s body. 

A body as smooth as this, but more moist than this. Even though he held her every night, he thought of her suddenly during the day. The pleasure that had been engraved on his body all night long, the warmth and kindness, sizzled on his skin in an instant. Every time he wanted to have it, it became difficult to bear. 

What comes with sexual desire is loneliness. The feelings, which had never felt so great before meeting her, were now deeply ingrained in his heart just by looking at the sunset.

He was just working while putting up with those feelings. But, because of these dumb things he had to stop his job and leave. Sa Heon-yeong couldn’t have been in a good mood to see these people.

Sa Heon-yeong wiggled his finger and the escorts approached and removed the chairs of the uninvited guests.

“Sit down.”
