Chapter 226:
Chapter 226
He was still a rookie, even though he acted like a big shot.
He was definitely less impressive than the future version that Yoo-hyun remembered.
He was so scared of something that he could easily stop by using his father’s influence.
Chirp.
Yoo-hyun poured some alcohol and patted his shoulder.
“I just want to have some fun. It’s boring, you know.”
“You crazy bastard.”
“It’s nice to hear that after a long time.”
“What the hell are you?”
Nam Jong Boo gritted his teeth and asked.
Yoo-hyun lifted one corner of his mouth and said.
“Do you want to y a game of golf with me? You like that, right?”
“Golf?”
Nam Jong Boo’s eyebrows twitched for a moment.
He was a fanatic who started and ended his day with golf.
Especially, he loved betting golf and had an incredible winning rate.
In other words, golf was the only thing in his life that he could be proud of, besides money.
Yoo-hyun touched his pride.
“Oh, are you bad at it? How many strokes should I give you?”
“Wow… You’re really crazy. Are you insane?”
“Then back off if you’re scared. Anyway, you’re a man with no guts.”
“You bastard.”
Nam Jong Boo clenched his fist and raised it.
-Manager Han, you said you yed golf, but your level is so low. Hahaha. Here, take this money. Buy yourself a drink with it.
Yoo-hyun recalled the humiliation he had suffered while ying golf for entertainment.
Come to think of it, he had also thrown a bundle of bills on his face.
His pride had been thrown to the ground at that time.
A favor is ten times, a grudge is a hundred times.
Now it was his turn to trample on his pride mercilessly.
That was why Yoo-hyun didn’t beat him up right away.
Instead, he wanted to scare him a little bit.
Yoo-hyun leaned in his face and said.
“What, are you going to hit me? You’ll die if you do that.”
“…”
His fist slowly dropped at Yoo-hyun’s fierce gaze.
He looked so cute in that state.
Swoosh.
Yoo-hyun took out a business card from his pocket that only had a phone number on it.
It was a card he had prepared in advance.
It was a high-quality card with gold foil around it, which cost him a lot of money.
Ping.
Yoo-hyun flicked it with his finger and threw it at his face.
The card flew and hit his big nose precisely and fell down.
Still, he was holding back his anger.
It was because Yoo-hyun’s eyes were so fierce.
Yoo-hyun chuckled and patted his shoulder as he got up from his seat.
“Call me when you make a reservation.”
“…”
“Oh, bring a lot of cash. You know what cash ssh is, right?”
It was when Yoo-hyun turned around with a smile on his face.
Snap.
He heard Nam Jong Boo grinding his teeth behind him.
His lips curled up even more.
He knew Nam Jong Boo’s behavior pattern very well.
He must have brought some weak guys behind him after being provoked so much.
As expected, as soon as Yoo-hyun left the bar, a man followed him behind.
It was not even a job to shake him off.
Of course, it was possible because he didn’t drive but walked there.
Nam Jong Boo, who had been drugged so much, had only one thing to do now.
He wanted to humiliate Yoo-hyunpletely and utterly.
To do that, betting golf was the answer.
A littleter.
Yoo-hyun’s phone rang when he got home.
It was a phone that he had newly opened for Nam Jong Boo only.
Yoo-hyunughed and answered without hesitation.
“Why are you sote? Are you still there?”
-You bastard, you’re dead for real.
“Cut it out. You’re useless.”
-Hey. I caught you, soe out right now. If you ask me where…
“Stop making pig noises and text me.”
Yoo-hyun hung up the phone and soon received a text message.
Zing!
He checked the text message and shrugged his shoulders.
“Kid, you must have been in a hurry.”
He must have been very impatient because he set the date for the next day.
And that was less than two hours after they parted ways.
That much passion was enough to pass the test.
Yoo-hyun kindly replied back:
-Deal
That was very generous of him.
He fell asleep with excitement for the first time in a long time.
That’s how the appointment time came.
Sunday afternoon.
Yoo-hyun entered Ulsan Beach CC, which was not far from Ulsan’s seaside.
As he passed through therge building, he saw a green field and a waiting room next to it.
There, Nam Jong Boo and two men were waiting for Yoo-hyun.
Nam Jong Boo was already frowning, maybe because Yoo-hyun waste.
Yoo-hyun put down his golf bag and smiled brightly.
“Cheer up. I might be a littlete.”
“Enough, did you bring the money?”
“Do you take credit?”
Yoo-hyun joked and Nam Jong Boo’s face twisted in anger.
“What did you say?”
“Hey, don’t worry. Do I look like a scammer who would do that?”
“…”
Nam Jong Boo scanned Yoo-hyun with a thin eye.
Yoo-hyun had brought the rental club that they gave here.
His outfit was also shabby for a professional golf outfit.
He couldn’t understand what kind of confidence he had.
However.
He knew his weakness.
Then?
It was not a normal bet, he judged.
Yoo-hyun ignored Nam Jong Boo, who was busy thinking, and greeted the two men behind him.
He had checked the reservation list beforehand, so he roughly knew who they were.
“Nice to meet you. Park Gyu Hyung, president of Ulsan Construction, and Choi Myung Kyu, president of Sunwoo Construction.”
“What? Why are you talking down to me, you young punk?”
Park Gyu Hyung frowned at Yoo-hyun.
He looked like a thug who only had a president title on his business card.
It was obvious that he was groveling in front of the rich.
Yoo-hyun went on the offensive.
“Shut up if you don’t want to die.”
“What did you say?”
“Do you know who I am?”
Yoo-hyun shed his eyes and he flinched.
Then he looked at Nam Jong Boo’s face.
The same was true for Choi Myung Kyu next to him.
Nam Jong Boo slowly nodded his head.
He was ufortable with Yoo-hyun, who knew his corruption.
After observing the situation for a moment, Park Gyu Hyung apologized to Yoo-hyun.
“I’m s-sorry.”
Yoo-hyun epted his apology with ease.
“It’s okay. Just call me Steve. I lived abroad and I’m not used to honorifics.”
“Oh… I see.”
“Just talk to me like a friend. Haha.”
Yoo-hyun waved his hand and spoke casually.
He didn’t have to bow his head to them in the first ce.
But the situation that Yoo-hyun had created by mocking Nam Jong Boo earlier was big.
Those few words made Yoo-hyun equal to Nam Jong Boo.
Nam Jong Boo, who had been watching the situation quietly, clenched his face and raised his hand.
“Yes, sir.”
The caddy in the corner came quickly with his gesture.
Nam Jong Boo spoke calmly, unlike himself.
“Basic rules?”
“One bill per hole, plus as many as the number of strokes. Oh, double bogey (+2), birdie (-1) or more, double the pot for each hole.”
“Okay.”
Nam Jong Boo nodded slowly at Yoo-hyun’s words.
It was exactly what he wanted to say.
He was about to open his mouth again when it happened.
Again, Yoo-hyun said what he had in mind.
“Oh, you know cash ssh, right?”
“That’s a good thing to say. Sister, did you hear that?”
“Yes, sir. I’ll prepare it for you.”
Nam Jong Boo nodded to the caddy who agreed.
Yoo-hyun spoke to her.
“And when it’s a tie, it’s cumtive double pot. Min Jung, please calcte well.”
“Yes, I understand.”
The caddy was surprised when Yoo-hyun called her name and used honorifics. Of course, it wasn’t hard to know her name because she had a name tag.
But it was the first time she heard honorifics in this atmosphere.
She bowed her head to Yoo-hyun.
Nam Jong Boo gritted his teeth at that sight.
‘You’re going to be skinned today.’
Nam Jong Boo gestured to the caddy.
“Sister, bring that over.”
“Yes. I’ll bring it right away.”
The caddy walked backwards to the cart and came back with four cans of drinks.
They were expensive-looking energy drinks.
Nam Jong Boo fiddled with them and said.
“Here, drink up. Let’s have some energy since we’re doing this.”
“Haha. As expected of Nam President. You’re meticulous.”
“Thank you, Nam President.”
Park Gyu Hyung and Choi Myung Kyu bowed their heads.
Yoo-hyun had been like that in the past too.
But not anymore.
Yoo-hyun pushed away the can that the caddy handed him with his palm and said.
“I’m allergic to this stuff, so I don’t like it.”
“You don’t? You look like you can’t use much strength anyway?”
“Why? Do I have to drink it for some reason?”
Yoo-hyun spat out a meaningful answer at Nam Jong Boo’s words.
The caddy’s eyes widened.
He looked around nervously like a guilty person.
Nam Jong Boo twisted his face and waved his hand.
“Leave him alone. He’ll do whatever he wants.”
“Yes, sir.”
The caddy walked back quickly.
Yoo-hyun snorted at Nam Jong Boo’s cheap trickery
There was a reason why Nam Jong Boo was unbeatable in golf betting with pros.
He used a sneaky method of feeding drugs to his opponents.
He couldn’t let him do that, even if he knew it.
“Then let’s start.”
Yoo-hyun scanned the people and blinked his eyes.
A momentter.
Yoo-hyun got off the cart and stood in front of the first hole.
It was a course that had well-cut grass and neatly decorated trees.
He felt rxed whenever he came to the golf course.
It felt like he was cut off from the world.
It was ironic that he had his old enemy in such a ce.
The game started with Nam Jong Boo’s swing.
Bang.
The ball that Nam Jong Boo hit flew far away.
He was a typical rich man who started and ended his day with golf.
At the same time, the two men who came with Nam Jong Boo pped loudly.
p p p p.
“President, nice shot.”
“Oh, you’re amazing as always.”
They praised himvishly and took turns swinging their drivers.
They were all decent yers.
They were not here just to fill the numbers.
Then Yoo-hyun stepped up to the tee.
Nam Jong Boo taunted him.
“Let’s see how good you are.”
“Golf is not about being good. It’s about mental training.”
“You son of a bitch.”
Yoo-hyun snorted and focused on the tee.
He had yed golf countless times.
He was already good at observing and concentrating, so he learned very fast.
Later, he surpassed his bosses and even gave some strokes to other customers.
He was good enough to challenge a pro, objectively speaking.
Andtely, he had been practicing at the driving range to sharpen his skills.
It was a kind of investment for the future.
He wanted to see the effect today.
His sense from back then showed up clearly.
Bang.
The ball that Yoo-hyun hit curved sideways and rolled to the edge.
It almost went out of bounds (OB).
The distance was pretty good, but it was farthest from the hole.
Nam Jong Booughed and held his stomach.
“Puhahaha. I knew you would do that.”
“Hahahaha.”
The two men behind him alsoughed along.
Yoo-hyun shrugged and got on the cart and said.
“It’s not even over yet.”
“Puhahaha.”
Nam Jong Boo got on the cartte and keptughing as if he was very pleased.
