Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 62

Yun-hee looked at the woman in front of her with a slightly stunned expression before handing her the phone over and walking back. She just had a talk with her brother and the talk froze her thinking process. It was like she talked to a new person completely and now she is forced to stop working.
She went into the boss's room and tried to not show disgust on her face due to all kinds of foul smells in that place. She bowed and thanked him for giving her the job the last month before asking permission to leave for good.
The boss looked at her lightly and asked, "You come here suddenly, want a job, and want to leave when you want? You know that isn't how things normally go in the underworld, right?" taking a deep puff of the cigarette in his hand. His arms were full of tattoos and the bald head made him intimidating.
Yun-hee shuddered a little as she heard his intimidating tone and panicked a little as she stuttered to reply, "Boss, please try to understand. My circumstances are different and I need to leave. My university exams are only a few weeks away. Give me some leeway this one time." practically begging him."
Silence filled the room as Yun-hee started regretting her life choices more and more. She knew how dangerous the underworld could be but joined, despite knowing that. Now she was in a difficult position to even leave. She felt like crying, but if she broke down, her chances to leave would also decrease.
The boss took a deep breath and said, "I allowed you to get a job in the first place because of your friend. You can leave. Never show your face in these parts of town, if you do you'll never leave again." His words shocked Yun-hee a little, but she quickly bowed once again and walked out.

She exhaled in relief as she got out and clenched her fists. She was betting on Joon-won's words and left this job. She hopes he holds up his end of the bargain. She quickly changed out of her clothes and walked out into the pub in her school uniform once again. She didn't notice Jung-hwa and continued on out.
As she walked into the alleyway, she noticed a few people trying to make their way into the pub, so she slowly went to the side and shrunk herself as she continued out. She didn't want to get noticed by any of the people, and luckily they were too busy to do so.
She breathed out in relief as she finally made out into the streets and noticed Jung-hwa waving her hand a few feet away from her. She looked at the lively sister and wondered what her relationship was with her brother to make her come into a dangerous pub for her.
She walked towards her and Jung-hwa asked, "Did you leave the job permanently? Are they giving you any kinds of problems? Tell me if they are, I'll try to think of a solution." She returned to her usual self as she spits out questions once again.
Yun-hee was taken back at the barrage of questions and instantly wondered how her brother managed to control this gun. She shook her head and held her thoughts in as she replied, "Everything is fine. The boss told me to leave. He warned me to never show my face on this side of the city once again. That's all."
"That's good. At least that guy has some morality to leave a girl when she wants to leave." Jung-hwa nodded to herself.
Yun-hee stared at the woman for a while and blurted out, "Are you my brother's girlfriend?" And released immediately after she asked for it.

Jung-hwa was shocked for a second after hearing her and laughed out loud. She shook her head and replied, "No way. It's not easy to even talk to your brother normally, much less date him. I'm just a friend who is returning a huge favor. I owe him. That's all. Oh right, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Cheo Jung-hwa, you can call me sister Jung-hwa."
"Yee, nice to meet you. My name is Kim Yun-hee. What do you mean by favour? You owe my brother a favour?" She questioned her once again.
Jung-hwa looked at her for a second before laughing once again. "You remind me of your brother a bit. Well, I don't think he will get angry if I tell you why I owe him a favour. Well, it started last week. Your brother helped me improve my acting skills and made me better than I ever was. So I'm grateful."
Yun-hee paused for a second when she heard her. She looked at Jung-hwa in complete confusion and asked, "My brother is good enough to teach others about acting? Much less help them get better? When did this happen?"
She was so confused because she knew how bad her brother was. She observed him when he was back in high school at home, trying to act as he saw in movies, secretly inside his room. But she saw how bad he was and thought he was making a big mistake. She knew he was doing a big mistake especially after he went to university in another town. He never attended classes and always partied out there. She thought he would become wasted like many in society.
"Oh! You don't know? Your brother is very good at acting. The best in class and even got high praises from the judges. He would have won first prize and also the prize money if he got a better role but he never cared. That's why I got both of them and am indebted for his help. If he didn't help, I would also be a mediocre actor in that class." She explained.
Yun-hee nodded before both of them went their separate ways. Yun-hee walked back home, thinking about the phone call she had with her brother. Her brother sure sounded very different and mature.
