Chapter 243
This is an old street located in the suburbs of Seoul.
This suburb is considered a slum. People living here are all poor people living at the bottom of society. Most of them come to Seoul to work and earn money. Among them, there are several artists from the Korean entertainment industry. They are said to be artists, but they are actually the people at the bottom of the entertainment industry. For example, there is no stable stage yet.
This old street is indeed very old. It has existed twenty years ago. Today, twenty years later, the times have entered the 21st century. However, it is still like it was twenty years ago. It cannot keep up with the trend of the times, so it seems outdated. With the erosion of decades of ups and downs, it seems broken, so it is a dilapidated old street.
It is this dilapidated old street, but it is the only commercial street in this slum.
There are many shops on both sides of the old street. Although there are a lot of them, each shop cannot get a table because it is too small and simple.
One of them turned out to be a toy store.
Toy shops are not strange, but it is a bit strange to open in such old streets in slums, because many families have problems with three meals a day, and how many families will buy toys for their children.
Fortunately, there is still some true love in the world, especially the parents’ love for their children. Therefore, there are still some children here who come to buy toys. Although there are not many, it can at least prove the significance of the existence of this toy store.
But it cannot guarantee the life of the toy shop owner.
Many people who live here are surprised by this. They all know that this toy store is not only not profitable, but is definitely a loss, but why is it always open
Yes, toy shops have been open for a full ten years
Although many people were surprised, no one dared to ask the toy store owners how to survive.
Because the owner of the toy shop is a very strange person, he is so strange that he has lived here for ten years, but he almost never takes the initiative to deal with neighbors around him. It is so strange that everyone around him thinks he is a very cold person, so cold that everyone is scared.
Paradoxically, the people around him also thought he was a very warm person, so warm that all the children here liked him very much. Every time they saw him, they would happily call him "Uncle".
His warmth seems to be reflected only when facing children.
Even so, he is still a popular person here. Although he treats people around him very coldly, his warmth is enough to make people around him welcome him.
Because he not only often gives children toys, but when a child encounters problems when he encounters problems when his homework and the parents don’t know how to answer, he will ask his children to come to him and he will definitely answer them seriously. Sometimes the neighbors are so poor that they can’t make a fuss, and they will also ask their own children to come to him. He will enthusiastically provide help and give some money for the children to take back.
This very strange toy shop owner who coexists with cold and warmth has a very simple name.
His name is Chengmin. He is in his thirties.
The toy store opened by Chengmin also has a very simple name.
Its name is Mother and Child Toy Store.
This is a strange name, does it have any special meaning?
No one around knew because no one dared to ask him, and no one could get the answer.
At noon that day, the mother and son toy shop, which was clearly losing money, was open as usual.
Because he was idle, Chengmin, the boss in simple clothes, was playing darts alone in the store.
It was toy darts, and darts were thrown out from him. On the dart plate that landed on the wall, nine darts were thrown out in a row, and each one hit the bull's-eye.
Nine darts appear like a blooming flower, blooming in the bullseye position of the dartboard.
But why did it be nine darts, not ten or eight? No one knows.
Anyway, this is really a miracle.
But his miraculous skill seemed a bit funny to the people around him, because they thought that a man in his thirties played with toy darts in a shop that was losing money all day long, which was really a waste of time. Fortunately, there was another use, which was to make the children around him happy.
At present, when Chengmin picked up the nine darts on the ground, a happy shout came from the door.
"Uncle, Uncle Chengmin"
The person who shouted was a teenage girl named Kong Ren'er.
Next to him was a young woman in her twenties named Kong Enzhu, who was Kong Ren'er's aunt and was unmarried.
Kong Enzhu's dress is simple, but she looks very clean, which highlights her beautiful face. She is truly recognized as the most beautiful beauty in this slum.
If there are also wealthy families in the slums, then the family where Kong Enzhu is located is considered a wealthy family in this slum. There are several shops at home, and she herself has become the owner of a noodle shop here at a young age.
Chengmin put away the toy dart and walked over. He didn't go to see Kong Enzhu, but bent down and smiled at Kong Ren'er, "Little guy, have you just finished school?"
Kong Ren'er smiled and said, "Yes, my aunt specially picked me up from school today."
As he said that, Kong Ren'er glanced at Kong Enzhu.
Chengmin still didn't go to see Kong Eun-joo, and continued to smile at Kong Ren'er and said, "Why are you here again? Do you want any toys again?"
After saying that, without waiting for Kong Ren'er to answer, Chengmin took the latest fuzz doll and handed it to Kong Ren'er: "You should like this."
Kong Ren'er said: "I like it."
Chengmin said, "If you like it, take it."
Kong Ren'er said, "Thank you uncle."
Kong Eun-joo, who was beside him, quickly took out the money from her body and wanted to hand it to Chengmin, but was coldly interrupted by Chengmin: "No need to give money."
Kong Ren'er couldn't help asking: "Uncle, why are you so kind to me? You don't charge me money every time."
Chengmin bent down again and said with a smile: "Because the uncle likes you."
Kong Ren'er said "Oh" and suddenly said, "Like my aunt likes you."
When Chengmin heard this, he glanced at Kong Enzhu in surprise.
Kong Enzhu's pretty face suddenly turned red.
However, Kong Eun-joo quickly plucked up the courage, walked forward boldly, and said to Chengmin: "Shengmin Oppa, I like you."
Chengmin stood up and said coldly: "Why do you like me?"
Kong Enzhu said: "Like it is like it, there is no reason."
Then he said: "As long as you promise me, don't play with toy darts in the store every day in the future, don't continue to guard this loss-making store, find a serious business again, even if you go to my noodle shop to help me, I'm willing to marry you."
Chengmin had a cold face and was silent.
Kong Enzhu continued: "Your toy store is a loss. You can hold on for ten years, probably because you had a lot of savings. I guess your savings are about to be spent now. It doesn't matter, I don't mind."
Chengmin continued to have a cold face and remained silent.
Kong Enzhu was still saying: "Did you get married before? I guess right? After all, you are in your thirties. You probably got married early. It doesn't matter if you divorce later so you live here, and I don't mind."
Chengmin finally spoke, but said a very cold sentence: "I don't like you."
Kong Enzhu was not angry or embarrassed because she had guessed that the result would be like this.
Kong Eun-joo finally shouted to Chengmin: "My parents are in a hurry to give me a blind date now, but I won't accept it. Chengmin Oppa, I will wait for you, the day you are willing to marry me."
After saying that, Kong Enzhu turned around and left with Kong Ren'er. Kong Ren'er turned around and looked at Chengmin, and then looked at his aunt Kong Enzhu. His two small eyes were rolling around, but he couldn't figure out what was going on.
Chengmin stood there in a daze, staring at Kong Enzhu's back as he walked away, and couldn't help but feel moved.
Yes, he was a little moved. The simple confession of a pretty woman like Kong Enzhu made him feel that it was so beautiful.
But, must you take action if you are moved?
Chengmin was a little confused about this.
At this moment, a summoning voice came not far away: "Chengmin."
Chengmin turned around and saw a familiar figure walking towards him.
This man is in his forties, wearing a suit and ties, wearing glasses, looks gentle and gentle on the outside, but his heart is evil.
