Chapter 143 What Am I?
The cleaning boy and I boarded the carriage prepared by the Bunta and set off for Guryongseong.
Flutter, flutter.
It bore the flag symbolizing Guryongseong, emblazoned with nine dragons.
Thanks to that, we traveled comfortably and swiftly.
Tick-tock.
Ah, scratch that about being comfortable.
“This noise is killing me. Seriously!”
“Don’t yell like that. You’re scaring our child!”
“What baby?! You said you’d send it back to nature!”
“But Cheong-ah says she won’t go! What are we supposed to do?! Our Cheong-ah wants to keep living with Mommy? Oh, how adorable.”
Clatter. Clatter. Clatter. Clatter.
“……”
Well, for reasons like these, the journey wasn’t exactly peaceful.
Anyway, after arguing with the maid the whole way, we finally arrived at Guryongseong.
I left the maid to unpack and headed straight for the outer hall.
‘No! Why should she do this alone!’
She looked aggrieved, but what could I do?
Thanks to me, she rode comfortably in the carriage, so this much is only right.
“Goo! Ryoyong!”
I saluted Garip with the utmost respect, meeting him for the first time in nearly three months.
I had originally sought out Baek first, but upon hearing he hadn’t come to work, I rushed straight to Garip.
Truthfully, it didn’t really matter who I greeted first.
Baek hardly ever came to work anyway, so Garip held the real power in the outer hall.
“…Guryong. So, did you have a good trip?”
“Hehe, thanks to the Deputy Head’s kindness, I had a very good trip indeed. Hehehe.”
