Chapter 73



The wind was really cold . The world itself was becoming cold .



But time was still moving without freezing .


One winter day .


Jaegun bought his book, Storm and Gale . He was going to see Professor Han Hesun .


“The book looks good . ”


In the quiet office, there was a warm atmosphere . Hesun examined the book .


“I like this instead of some drawing . ”


“I like it, too . ”


Jaegun answered .


Hesun opened the book . On the first page, there was one sentence in the white paper .


I offer this book to Dasul and her life .


“Who’s Dasul?”


“Ahah, yes . ”


He quickly explained to Hesun excluding the talk about Jongjin .


Hesun laughed when she heard that .


“Of course, that’s like you . An action writer . That’s good . A writer needs to feel a lot of feelings . You need to learn and feel more things and understand them”


“Yes, I know . ”


The clock was heading to 12 .


“Um, Professor, It’s lunch…”


Tap!


There was a knock noise behind Jaegun’s back . Hesun lifted her head .


“Come in . ”


3-4 people came in .


When they saw Jaegun, they froze in place .


They forgot to even greet Hesun .


“Ja, Jaegun…?”


“It’s you . It’s been a while . ”


Jaegun smiled and said .


They were his college colleagues . They had come to give a present and greet Hesun .


“Why are you all of you surprised? Sit down . ”


The people woke up at that .


And then they greeted Hesun and politely gave the gifts they brought .


“Professor, I hope good things happen to you . ”


“Thank you for helping me . ”


“It’s nothing, but I hope you like it . ”


Hesun didn’t really care for their presents .


She didn’t like the presents they gave for no reason . She told them not to bring these pointless presents so many times, but they didn’t listen . She gave up a long time ago .


“Yes, thank you . Put it on the desk . ”


Hesun said .


It was a terrible feeling . She didn’t like her students who tried to gain her respect with this .


“Aha…”


One person’s glance went to the book in Hesun’s hand .


Everyone knew .


The winner .


That’s why they were surprised from seeing Jaegun .


“You’ve heard, right?”


“Yes, yes… professor . Of course . ”


“I hope you guys read it . It’s really good . It will help your writing as well . ”


At that, the people smiled forcefully .


They were all shivering . With jealous eyes, they were glancing at Jaegun .


‘Hahaha…’


Jaegun only laughed to himself .


It was always like this .


There were only a few people like Jongjin and Suhee who didn’t become jealous .


“Don’t you have anything to say to him?”


Hesun said .


And then, they started to say congrats to Jaegun .


“Congrats . ”


“I’ll read it . ”


“I’ll buy it when I get home . ”


It was a voice of no soul .


Even they didn’t know if this soulless praise came from their heart .


“Thanks . ”


Jaegun also said . He looked at Hesun .


Hesun bitterly smiled and nodded .


“You’re leaving?”


“I think you’re busy so I will leave now . ”


He didn’t want to waste time between these jealous kids . Hesun understood this .


“Professor, you should eat . What do you want?”


“I bought a car . What do you want . ”


The colleagues started to say as Jaegun was about to leave .


Jaegun was heading towards the door .


“Ah, Jaegun . Wait . ”


Hesun clapped .


Jaegun turned around .


“Yes?”


“I almost forgot . It’s nothing, but you should give a lecture . ”


“Lect . . . ure?


“Yes, there’s an orientation . Come and give a lecture . ”


Jaegun widened his eyes .


The colleagues did too . They were more shocked then Jaegun .


One colleague was having trouble even standing up as he leaned against the desk .


“I’ll give you the money . ”


Hesun winked at him .


But Jaegun couldn’t answer back .


‘I… give a lecture?’


The orientation was not something to be taken lightly . Many people of the press came and it was a highly valued event . For some writers, this could be the making of a career .


No one who graduated from here has given a lecture yet .


If Jaegun accepted, he would be the first .


“No?”


“No, Professor . . . I’m just surprised . I’ll try my best . ”


Jaegun answered . The colleague’s eyes were shaking hard .


“Thank you for this opportunity . ”


“Yes . Let’s talk later . Go ahead . ”


Jaegun bowed and turned around . He was smiling even though he felt the jealousy from his colleagues .


A lecture offered from Professor Han Hesun . It was an amazing .
