Chapter 211: Like a Flame That Burns Deeply – Volume 8 Complete
Baek Moo-jin and Jin So-hye quietly slipped out of the house after confirming their youngest daughter was asleep.
It was a quiet moonlit night.
It was perfect weather for a stroll.
As soon as Baek Moo-jin and Jin So-hye stepped onto the path, they walked hand in hand. It was a path where petals occasionally fluttered in the light breeze.
Jin So-hye’s appearance remained as beautiful as it had been in her twenties. Baek Moo-jin still felt his heart flutter whenever he caught a glimpse of her profile.
Baek Moo-jin remained unchanged himself.
This time walking together on the quiet path was the happiest part of their daily routine. They shared rambling conversations and sometimes even held impromptu duels in secluded spots.
Today, thoughts of Eun-gyeol overwhelmed them both.
Jin Sohye was throwing a tantrum, demanding he bring her back from Seolui Peak now, and Baek Moo-jin’s resolve was wavering.
Because of this, their conversation today was quieter than usual. A sudden thought occurred to Jin So-hye, and she asked.
“Brother.”
“Hm?”
“Did you go somewhere for a bit a few days ago?”
“Hmm… I had some business to attend to.”
“You didn’t go see Eun-gyeol alone, did you?”
“No way? I couldn’t have gone and come back that quickly.”
Jin So-hye nudged Baek Moo-jin’s side with her elbow as she spoke.
“Something’s fishy, huh?”
“Suspicious, indeed…”
“I heard there’s internal strife within the Unsan Sect. You didn’t go there, did you?”
