Chapter 68 - 5.5 Side StoryIt''s been two weeks since losing contact with Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo said goodbye to

    him in Las Vegas and returned to Korea by plane the next morning. He checked his

    phone as soon as he arrived at the airport, but there were no messages from Zhenya.

    He should have come to Moscow a long time ago. Since then there has been no news

    until now.

    Of course in the case of other people, it''s useless to worry about Zhenya''s health. But

    he had never been away for such a long time, so Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t help but care.

    Perhaps the lona vacation arranged after completing the mission was boring, so Kwon

    Taek Joo had a lot of time to think like that.

    Yoon Jong Woo, who is called every two days, introduced a popular game recently.

    After mastering it in less than a week, Kwon Taek Joo lost interest. Yoon Jong Woo

    asked him to join another game with him. But the problem is that forming a group in real

    life or in the game does not suit his interests at all. I don''t understand why Kwon Taek

    Joo doesn''t want to watch movies or videos or even read books during this vacation.

    He picked up the phone again and stared at his list of one-way calls.

    Are you sick anywhere? Or was it a sudden accident or emergency surgery? Because

    of such unavoidable circumstances, can''t you contact me or come back soon?

    (Zhenya got him attached)

    Kwon Taek Joo assumed some situations and then shook his head after a while. He

    couldn''t imagine such things would happen to Zhenya.

    That guy wasn''t always an iron man, because we lived together for only a year and

    there was also a time when he got sick. Zhenya especially struggled with the Korean

    heat. Due to the effects of global warming, occasional heat ups and downs of up to 30

    degrees have been recorded in Moscow, but that has nothing to do with Zhenya. If it

    gets hot, Zhenya will go to Ajinoki Island.

    The guy, after taking cold showers several times a day. finally poured ice into the

    bathtub. then filled it with cold water and sat down. Just being close to Zhenya at that

    time was enough to feel a cold atmosphere.

    [What are you doing?]

    [Don''t you know?]

    [If so, you will suffer from hypothermia and possibly go straight to hell because of

    cardiac arrest.]

    [Isn''t it hell now? Awful. The whole country is as hot as boiling.]

    [What can you do to that extent?]

    There was no point in nagging Zhenya to go

    out and saying he would catch a cold. And it would be even more troublesome if Kwon

    Taek Joo stopped him any more, because he might also be dragged into the bathtub if

    he kept loitering in front of Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo had to leave him alone. A moment

    later Zhenya came out of the bathroom, his porcelain white face without a drop of blood.

    [You are as white as a piece of paper. Lips are also pale.]

    Clicking his tongue, Kwon Taek Joo used a towel to dry Zhenya''s hair. The boy who was

    obediently entrusting his body to Kwon Taek Joo suddenly rushed towards him with a

    cold body. It was so cold that he didn''t know if it was human body temperature or not, sea??h thё ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    just touching Zhenya gave him goosebumps all over his body. Kwon Taek Joo turned on

    the heater, but Zhenya still couldn''t warm up.

    I knew it would be like this. Kwon Taek Joo sighed and hugged the clingy kid. That day,

    Zhenya did not let go of Kwon Taek Joo until his body became hot again. Once he starts

    making love, Zhenya usually doesn''t know how to stop, even though it''s dangerous to

    sweat in such a frozen state. And the next day, Zhenya fell ill.

    The person who always wakes up first, is drowsy that day and doesn''t even intend to

    get up. He touched Zhenya''s forehead. he seemed to have a fever.

    [Ah kid, what did I say? I told you not to overdo it. Just turning on the air conditioner is

    enough. I''m not a snowman but you''re still so strangely stubborn.]

    [Taek Joo. I just have a little fever. There''s nothing to worry about.]

    Although Zhenya acted like nothing special, he still did not loosen his arm from Kwon

    Taek Joo''s waist. How can you move with

    this thing stuck to you?

    [Then put this down. I have to go to work.]

    [You''re so cold, Taek Joo]

    [I''m not a child, I''m not sick to the point of death. If it continues to not get better, go to

    the hospital. If not, then go home. I''ll call mom.]

    Zhenya blankly listened to Kwon Taek Joo''s advice and then blinked. It wasn''t long

    before his eyelids completely closed and Kwon Taek Joo could hear Zhenya''s heavy

    breathing. Perhaps because of the cold, Kwon Taek Joo''s breathing became more

    wheezing, and the arms around Kwon Taek Joo''s waist also loosened.

    Kwon Taek Joo checked the heat again, but it wasn''t boiling enough to have to sit next

    to it and take care of it. Furthermore, that day he had to go to work and submit a report.

    He hesitated, then occasionally looked at the clock and left the house very late.

    Kwon Taek Joo had lunch that day and suddenly had a cough. Yoon Jong Woo sitting

    across from him opened his eyes wide.

    "Wow, senior has a cold? Right in the middle of summer?"

    "What kind of flu? Just a sneeze."

    "Ah, my arms are full of goosebumps. Lips are also pale."

    "Why are you turning on the air conditioner here so strongly?"

    "Is it too strong? But if you don''t open it this much, you won''t be able to breathe

    because it''s too hot."

    Kwon Taek Joo was dizzy even though he was eating hot soup. The others were

    sweating profusely, but he was the only one whose chin was cold. It''s all because of

    Zhenya. But even so, I don''t know if she''s eating properly.

    "No way. Eat and then go."

    "Yes?"

    "I have to stop by here for a bit."

    Finally, Kwon Taek Joo stopped eating and went to see Zhenya. He must have been

    asleep since morning and had been lying alone in bed until then. When he touched his

    forehead, the slight fever was still there.

    Kwon Taek Joo looked at the sleeping face for a long time before trying to remove his

    hand. Zhenya''s head slowly followed. Unconsciously, Zhenya rubbed his forehead

    against his hand. Not knowing if it was sleep talking or not, he sighed and muttered

    [Taek Joo]

    ...Anyway, if this bastard is like a monster then he has to do it to the end. Why does it

    make people feel so strangely guilty?

    The fact that Zhenya lived in a foreign land was entirely due to Kwon Taek Joo. He

    himself is also the only person Zhenya can rely on in Korea over the past year. Even his

    mother, who is always proud of her friendship with Zhenya, would be just a stranger if it

    weren''t for Kwon Taek Joo. And it''s also unfair because he himself never wanted that.

    "What crime did I commit in my previous life?"

    It wasn''t like someone in the ancestors killed the python that had just become a dragon.

    If that weren''t the case, then there seems to be no feud as deep as this guy that

    warrants a nuclear bomb.

    With that dissatisfied expression, Kwon Taek Joo played with Zhenya''s ivory hair. The

    sleeping man''s expression became more relaxed. The guy seemed to like his cold

    hands....Well, anyway. There''s no 2 meter luggage to have to carry like a burden and

    sometimes bring about this indescribable feeling of debt.

    That day was the first time Kwon Taek Joo left early since joining the headquarters.

    Remembering the past, he frowned and scratched his head.

    "What an unnecessary worry."
