Chapter 154: Chapter 154

"WHAT ARE you doing here, Eomma? Abeoji?"

To say that Wonhee was surprised hearing that from Yejun would be an understatement.

Wait, that sounded wrong.

[Of course, Yejun has parents– and they’re both alive.]

Wonhee almost forgot the other reason why Yejun had become a prominent figure among the Awakened People in the country.

It was because his parents and other family members awakened later after he did.

The beautiful middle-aged couple standing next to Grandpa Suk-yong must be Yejun’s parents.

Hwang Junsang, an A-Class Hunter.

Hwang Yebin, a B-Class Guide.

And then the famous A-Class Hunter Triplets.

And the only girl among the triplets– Hwang Minsu.

[Yejun’s older cousins.]

Wonhee felt nervous for some reason.

[How did I forget that the Winter Guild is composed mostly of Yejun’s family?]

"Are you not happy to see us?" Hwang Yebin, Yejun’s mother, confronted her son while walking towards them. "It’s been a year since we last saw you, son."

It looked like Mrs. Hwang Yebin was on the verge of crying.

[Yejun’s mother looks like a veteran actress who aged gracefully.]

"Eomma, it’s not like that," Yejun said, obviously panicking a little. "Please don’t cry."

[This is the first time I’ve heard Yejun speak this politely.]

"You should have called us as soon as you got sober," Mrs. Hwang complained while lightly smacking Yejun on the back. "How could you not send a single message after you got out of APA’s basement?"

"I was planning on doing that soon, Eomma..."

"And when is this ’soon’ exactly, huh?"

"Once I get back the Winter Guild from Kwon Jiwoong, of course."

[Is that why Yejun almost never talks about his teammates?]

Wonhee realized that Yejun was probably blaming himself for the Winter Guild’s untimely downfall when he snapped a year ago.

"Weren’t you worried about, son?"

"I was, but Soobin Hyung assured me that Eomma and the others were safe in France with Master."

Wonhee remembered that Soobin did pull Yejun aside once to talk about the Winter Guild’s current situation.

[Yejun didn’t share what he talked about with my brother then, so I didn’t ask.]

"I knew you’d return to Korea as soon as I called you, so I didn’t," Yejun admitted in a guilty voice. "I thought it would be better for Eomma and the others to stay in France until I recover the power that I lost to APA." He bowed his head politely. "I’m sorry for making you worry, Eomma."

And then Mrs. Hwang pulled Yejun for a hug.

Soon, Mr. Hwang Junsang joined the family hug quietly.

Yejun’s father was a big and good-looking middle-aged man who looked like an action star during his younger years because of his build.

But it seemed like Mr. Hwang was a reserved person.

Wonhee got distracted from watching the Hwang Family’s touching reunion when the triplets suddenly surrounded her.

Hwang Minho and Hwang Minki towered over her.

On the other hand, Hwang Minsu was almost the same height as her– still, she still looked as tough as her brothers.

[They’re a little scary...]

"You’re prettier in person, Wonhee-ssi," Hwang Minsu said. She had a poker face, but her eyes seemed to be shining. "I’m a fan."

Wonhee smiled and greeted the other girl politely. "Thank you, Minsu-ssi."

"Of course. Minsu-ssi is a famous Hunter."

Hwang Minho and Hwang Minki then asked the same question at the same time. "Can you tell us apart?"

To be honest, the answer was ’no...’ Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novel⚑fire.net

... until the two men’s Status Window popped up above their heads.

Wonhee discreetly checked their Status Windows.

[Hunter Hwang Minho.]

Ah, so the one standing on the left side was Hwang Minho.

[Hunter Hwang Minki.]

Obviously, the other one was Hwang Minki.

"Are you looking at our Status Windows?"

Wonhee unconsciously took a step backwards after being confronted by Hwang Minki.

[I forgot I’m not an expert in being ’discreet’ since I just recently awakened.]

Wonhee was about to apologize.

But, all of a sudden, two huge clenched fists made of ice emerged from the floor and punched Hwang Minho and Hwang Minki.

Hwang Minsu didn’t get hit, but she jumped away from Wonhee.

It was because Yejun suddenly appeared.

"Are you alright, Wonhee-ya?" Yejun asked worriedly, cupping her face between his hands. "I’m sorry. My cousins are annoying, aren’t they?"

"I’m alright, Yejun-ah," Wonhee said, and then she lightly hit him in the chest. "What did I say about violence?"

"And what do you say to people you’ve hurt?"

Yejun sulked, but he looked over his shoulders to look at his cousins who kicked the giant ice hands– breaking them into pieces. "Sorry, Hyungs."

A collective gasp was heard.

Yejun parents and older cousins all gasped in disbelief.

"Honey, did I hear it right?" Mr. Hwang asked his wife. "Did I really hear our son apologize to his older cousins?"

"I can’t believe it either, honey," Mrs. Hwang said, covering her mouth with her hands when she gasped again. "Our son has finally returned to society as a decent person!"

Yejun cleared his throat as if he was embarrassed.

"Is it because of Wonhee-ssi?" Hwang Minsu asked teasingly. "Yejun-ah, you chose well."

"Of course, Noona," Yejun said proudly, and then he stood behind Wonhee. He put his hands on her shoulders and gently tilted her body until she was facing his family properly. "Hwang Family, meet Miss Chu Wonhee– the amazing person who’s helping me become humane again."

Wonhee bowed her head politely. "Hello, everyone. I’m Chu Wonhee– Yejun-ssi’s Guide."

Much to her confusion, Yejun’s parents and cousins all gave her a thumbs up.

[Uhm, is that their family’s way of greeting people? Should I give them a thumbs up in return?]

Wonhee looked at Kim Bora to see if she was giving her a thumbs up.

Kim Bora even rolled her eyes at Wonhee.

[Oh, okay. I’m on my own.]

But before she could even copy the Hwang Family’s gesture...

"What do you think you’re doing in front of me?" Grandpa Suk-yong complained. "I’m not giving my precious granddaughter to Hwang Yejun."

Wonhee slowly put down her hand.

[Is Yejun’s family trying to welcome me as their daughter-in-law?]
