[TS] Became a Peach Saint – Chapter 69

Now, Baekseol has become my family and my other half.

“How should I kill you? You little cockroaches.”

“Crazy woman, if you keep running your mouth, you’ll regret it later.”

It was when the man’s comrades, who had been keeping their distance, started snickering and closing in.

“Young lady.”

“Oh, grandfather.”

—Click.

Before I knew it, the grandfather’s call and the faint metallic friction sound reached my sensitive ears.

Instantly, the gang flinched and stopped moving.

“If you’re short on breath, you should’ve just stayed quiet.”

Upon closer inspection, I saw the grandfather pressing a gun against the man’s side, hidden from the surrounding pedestrians.

“Calm down. It was just a light joke.”

The guy in front of me also seemed to realize what the metal object touching him was, his face turning pale.

Meanwhile, a swarm of people in black suits rushed in.

“Young lady, what should we do?”

“Huh?”

“If you wish, we can prepare a beautifully carved tombstone for them.”

As the conversation continued in English, clearly meant for them to hear, their faces turned increasingly pale.

“Uh… but who are these people?”

“They are the security team assigned to protect you, young lady.”

The large figures in suits who had swarmed in must have been the security team called by the grandfather.

“Take good care of her, young lady.”

“Yes, please take good care of me.”

Meanwhile, the thug-like guy was trembling because of the gun pointed at him.

“Hey, idiot.”

“……”

“Did your mouth get sealed? Should I unseal it?”

“Me? Uh, yeah. I’m listening, so go ahead.”

His pale face made it hard to keep looking at him.

“Should I make a hole for you to breathe, or do you want to take a hit from me and end it?”

“Huh?”

“No, did your friend’s dick get stuck in your ear? If you take a hit from me, I’ll let this matter end here.”

The man, glancing at his friends, eventually nodded.

“You promise it’ll really end without any trouble?”

“Of course, you punk. You guys agreed too, right?”

Whether it’s a bullet or a punch, they didn’t really have a choice.

“Alright, line up one by one. And go ahead and enjoy your favorite drugs among yourselves, you little brats. I won’t stop you.”

The guy’s eyes were on my fist. He looked like he was wondering how much it would hurt if someone as frail-looking as me hit him.

“Damn brats. Since ancient times, this has been the cure for those who mess with others’ lives.”

As I clenched my fist to throw a punch, someone stepped in to stop me.

“Young lady, hitting these guys will only hurt your wrist. We’ll handle this cleanly.”

The person who suddenly blocked me was so big that it felt like my vision darkened.

A man who clearly looks like the head of the security team. He appears twice as big as the already large security guards.

“Wow, you’re huge. It’s fine, so please step aside.”

My neck is stiff, and when I lower my head, it feels like I’m having a conversation with my lower back.

“Phew—. You guys shouldn’t have messed with Baekseol. Koreans will protect their family even if it kills them.”

“Young lady, we’ll handle it, so take it easy. My wrist is really hurting.”

“Ugh, fine.”

Compared to the security guards, her small, delicate fist looks almost cute as she clenches and unclenches it. The security team leader reluctantly steps aside.

Even in this situation, I see someone forcing a smile, their mouth twisted awkwardly.

How long can they keep smiling?

Huff.

Crack.

As she pulls back her fist, the sound of muscles tensing echoes in her mind.

Her left foot steps forward strongly, stomping the ground.

—Boom.

As she stomps the ground hard, her twisted waist snaps back, and her fist shoots toward the abdomen with full force.

—Bang!

With a sound like a drum bursting, the thug floats in the air before crashing down. His body trembles as if he’s been electrocuted, his eyes rolling back.

If I hadn’t instinctively held back my strength, his stomach would’ve burst.

“Phew—. If I hadn’t held back, I would’ve sent one guy flying.”

The security guards stare blankly at the guy who flew and then at me. The thugs, who were frozen in shock, now look terrified.

“Next is you. You little punk, come here first. My ears are really sharp, you jerk. Did you eat something good?”

“Young lady, there are a lot of eyes watching.”

Grandfather Kamar steps in to calm me down as I’m raging in excitement.

“Grandfather, those jerks tried to drug me and put me to bed.”

Grandfather Kamar, who always had a gentle face, starts to look fierce after hearing my words.

He must’ve rushed over without knowing the full story, seeing me go wild.

“They also talked about roasting and eating Baekseol.”

Grandfather Kamar, who particularly adored Baekseol, narrows his eyes.

“Young lady, we’ll handle this here. Would you like to go inside now?”

“Yes.”

Like a tattling child, I report everything to Grandfather Kamar and head toward the parked car.

The security guards swarm around me as I walk. It’s incredibly overwhelming.

“Did you learn something like kung fu, young lady?”

As I walk, I hear a voice from the side. Turning my head, I see the man I assumed was the team leader.

“I’m not Chinese, you know.”

“No, that’s not what I meant. Uh… sorry.”

Even though I held back at the end, the man’s body still floated. It was an unreal punch, no matter who saw it.

Enough to raise some serious doubts.

But leaving that aside, I have no idea why a giant man like him is so flustered.

“Just kidding. But what about those guys over there?”

Glancing back, I saw Grandfather Kamar and the remaining bodyguards, looking furious.

“They won’t die, but their lives are gonna be rough, right? We’ll handle it legally first. They’ll get thoroughly grilled on the drug charges.”

If “legally” is just the first step, I don’t even wanna know what comes after.

After that, we arrived at a hotel so luxurious it made my jaw drop.

“Young lady, press this if you’re in danger.”

What the bodyguard handed me was a bracelet.

“Press this?”

“Yes, press the button on the side, and we’ll respond immediately.”

“Oh, got it. Thanks.”

“Don’t mention it. Have a good night.”

As I entered the room, the bodyguards closed the door behind me. And there it was—a luxurious room right before my eyes.

Looking at this, instead of being impressed, my first thought was to show it to the viewers ASAP. Guess I’ve really become a broadcaster.

<Lady Han Ga-eul has started broadcasting>

[Bangjang!!!!!!!]

[Why are you only coming now!!!]

“Yeah, my babies. Did you have fun?”

[Mega Punch dude probably died from high blood pressure lololol]

[Ugh, I already digested dinner]

[You at the hotel?]

“Yeah, I’m here. Look at this, guys. The bathroom is bigger than all the rooms in my house combined.”

The hotel room was so dazzlingly fancy that it even had a bathtub in the room, not just the bathroom.

[Wow, WTF lol how much is this place?]

[Probably crazy expensive]

“What kind of hotel is this? They really went all out with the money.”

While I was showing the viewers around the hotel room, the doorbell rang.

[Who’s there?]

“Maybe the bodyguard uncle?”

[You have bodyguards too? lol]

[You really became a young lady lol]

Opening the door, it was a hotel staff member.

“Excuse me.”

The staff set up the food on the table from the moving cart and then calmly left the room.

“Guess Grandfather told them to send me to my room to rest.”

[Damn, the plating is so high-class]

[These guys aren’t cooking, they’re making art]

The food laid out before me was all greasy meat dishes. Even the vegetables were stir-fried in oil.

“Ah… More meat? I’m craving some spicy soybean paste stew.”

[How do you look at that visual and think of soybean paste stew?]

[That’s what happens when you go abroad lol]

“You guys keep eating steak all the time. You’ll start crying oil instead of tears. Even delicious food gets old after a while.”

[Ding!]

[Red Parade sponsored 1,000,000 won.]

[That’s something the gun-wielding Bangjang grilled, but does Bangjang not like meat?]

“Did Chulbong come? Hey, can I not go to Korea?”

[Chulbong is here lol.]

[Bangjang is giving out weird nicknames again lol.]

[Mr. Go Chulbong, how did this happen?]

[Ding!]

[Red Parade sponsored 1,000,000 won.]

[Please, there’s a party tomorrow T_T.]

“Hey, just kidding.”

Honestly, it was half-serious, half-joking. Living a luxurious life once or twice is fine, but as someone who’s lived as a commoner all my life, continuing this feels like wearing clothes that don’t fit.

“Thanks for using your wish card and taking care of me like this, but I think being ordinary suits me better.”

[It’s fun to watch, but it’s all so flashy it hurts my eyes.]

“In the morning, I sip on a ridiculously expensive cigar and wine, sleep on a plane that feels like a hotel room, and what else? Bodyguards? And in the evening, it’s a disgustingly expensive hotel. What kind of life is this for someone like me?”

Telling the viewers about the frustration I couldn’t express before made me feel a bit better.

[Ding!]

[Red Parade sponsored 1,000,000 won.]

[Tomorrow morning is Soybean Paste Stew lol.]

“Ah, I was thinking of going home, but Chulbong said he’d make Soybean Paste Stew, so I’m not going.”

[LOL, crazy.]

[So jealous, give me a nickname too.]

[Wow, morning Soybean Paste Stew at a luxury hotel in the UAE? Can’t resist this.]

“When boiling the broth, add one green chili, and after it’s done, take out the anchovies and chili.”

[Wow, Mr. Han knows his flavors lol.]

[I also hate anchovies floating in the broth lol.]

[Ding!]

[Red Parade sponsored 1,000,000 won.]

[Confirmed ^^7.]

After dealing with steaks and gold bars, talking about broth anchovies makes me feel at ease.

This must be my place.

“Ah, right. The tofu should be big and chunky.”

[Ding!]

[Red Parade sponsored 1,000,000 won.]

[Damn it, stop it.]
