Chapter 175: Man and Woman
While Cheon Ju-eun and Seon Woo-jin’s conversation unfolded, Dang Yeo-eun stood there blankly.
She, too, had heard quite a lot about Hae Cheong-yeon.
Seon Woo-jin often mentioned her when talking about the seven members of the team.
Seon Woo-jin held her in very high regard.
He always said she was far wiser than himself, and that she was a beautiful woman comparable to Dang Yeo-eun, though she hid her beauty by wearing her hair down.
‘But saying she was similar to me was just something he said to spare my feelings.’
Dang Yeo-eun was able to hear from Seon Woo-jin about the events that had occurred during the Jeong Hyeopbang incident.
And through that story, she came to believe that Hae Cheong-yeon must undoubtedly be far more beautiful than herself.
She herself had no confidence whatsoever that she could stop the fighting between two groups with her beauty alone, or gather hundreds of ronin simply by her presence.
So she felt a bit strange.
The fact that someone far more beautiful and accomplished than herself was already by Seon Woo-jin’s side.
‘Still, I felt a little relieved when she confidently answered that they were just good friends…’
But it seemed that was just Seon Woo-jin’s own delusion after all.
And the fact that Hae Cheong-yeon, the daughter of the Sword Saint and said to be wiser and more beautiful than anyone, had once loved him—Seon Woo-jin felt as if his mind had completely gone blank.
He, who had always been aware of everything around him at any moment, failed to notice even that she was watching him from behind.
