I Became a Villainous Character with a Limited Lifespan-Chapter 52
Episode 52
“… “It’s not a special relationship, so it’s a nuisance.”
Jaeyoung’s voice, as he slowly confirmed Seunghyeon’s words, was quieter than usual. He looked like he didn’t understand what he heard.
Seunghyun also knew. Where does his heart go? And the fact that my heart is also heading towards the same place that he is thinking about.
That’s why seeing Jaeyoung’s hurt face right now wasn’t pleasant for Seunghyun either. But when was life something you could only do fun things with?
“Are you serious?”
Jaeyoung asked. The attitude was that it couldn’t happen. He was not a perceptive person, so he would have realized how Seunghyeon looked at Jaeyoung without having to say or express it.
So, I guess I would have approached with more fear. Although Seunghyun liked that look, he kept putting off making a decision, wondering if it was okay as is or if this would be okay.
But I knew it the moment I saw Jaeyoung’s face. Now she can’t get away with such easy thinking. Her heart had grown so big that it couldn’t be contained within the small scope of ‘this much’, and it had become so huge that she couldn’t look away.
No one would make a face like that towards someone who can replace anyone. I don’t know how he was able to find where he was, but he wouldn’t be the kind of person who would do something like that for someone who wasn’t a big deal.
“Is there any reason not to be sincere?”
“We are nothing.”
“If you don’t understand, why do you keep talking?”
“I mean… “Because it doesn’t work.”
Jaeyoung took a step towards Seunghyeon. Seunghyeon, who took a step back to see if Jaeyoung, who had come closer, would notice his shaking expression, was about to open his mouth again, but Jaeyoung stopped him.
“I told you not to say anything, but… Aren’t there things that can be known without having to confirm them verbally? “I thought we had something like that between us.”
The slightly calmer tone felt more unfamiliar than before, when he seemed angry. Unlike Seunghyeon’s wavering gaze, Jaeyoung’s gaze was straight and calm.
Seunghyun’s eyes seemed to be embarrassed just by looking at him, so he took a step back. He had to lay down a thicker layer of lies to hide his wavering heart.
“It’s an illusion. “A ridiculous illusion.”
“… … .”
“It’s not that old. “As I said before, I think I’ve already forgotten where we first met.”
Seunghyun once again reminded me of their first meeting. A place for casual encounters, no different from the place where Jaeyoung found Seunghyeon a moment ago.
“No matter who I met there, I would have slept with him, and if that person had been as annoying as Joo Jae-young, our relationship would have been no different from what it is now. “It’s not because Joo Jae-young is special.”
At first, I thought it was bad luck that I met Jaeyoung there. Among so many people in the world, why should it be Joo Jae-young?
But as time passed, that thought gradually disappeared. Because we enjoyed our time together. I liked the pointless jokes and the overly close relationship.

“I just left it alone because I didn’t want to bother correcting it, but I didn’t know you were thinking about it this way.”
It was definitely true, but Seunghyun lied and pretended that he had never even thought about it. Seunghyun wanted to be someone who could replace Jaeyoung. He is someone who I wouldn’t mourn for long even if one day he suddenly disappears.
“As you know, Joo Jae-young, I had lived a boring life until then. So he wants to have some fun from now on.”
Seunghyun pretended like nothing happened. I wasn’t sure that my poor acting would be enough to fool Jaeyoung, so my harsh words became longer.
“So that’s it. It doesn’t really matter who the opponent is. Sleeping is something you can do with anyone passing by. Is there a need to give meaning to such things?”
The more effective it was, Jaeyoung’s face was noticeably hardening the longer Seunghyeon spoke.
“You seem more innocent than you look. Jaeyoung Jaeyoung.”
Seunghyun was always swayed by the other person’s words, but today, unlike usual, Seunghyun was swaying Jaeyoung.
“… “It’s an illusion.”
Jaeyoung opened his mouth heavily. Seunghyeon answered without making eye contact with Jaeyoung.
“yes. It’s an illusion. “That is also a completely absurd illusion.”
Looking at the eyes that didn’t know how to give up, it didn’t seem like the story would end easily. Seunghyun took a deep breath and raised his head.
“I told you not to talk like that.”
In a strange moment, Seung-hyeon, who lied as if he had silenced Jae-young for his own good, took a step closer to Jae-young.
“Don’t cross the line. “No matter what I do or who I spend the night with, Joo Jae-young has no authority to control that.”
“… .”
“If we can’t keep that line, it will be difficult for us to remain in a relationship like we are now.”
Seunghyun pretended to be calm. Even if these words ended their relationship, there was nothing they could do.
‘Even if you don’t like it… ‘It can’t be helped.’
One day, there will come a moment when Jaeyoung will think, ‘I’m glad I made that choice.’ Seunghyun thought so and said.
“I don’t need a lover or anything. Even if one day you need a lover or a spouse, you will need an omega, not an alpha like Joo Jae-young.”
“… … .”
“It doesn’t matter how I enjoy it now, but shouldn’t I have a normal family someday? I might be lucky like Executive Director Han and have my child be born with a dominant voice. “If Chairman Han corrects it by then, wouldn’t that child also be able to get a seat?”
It was said to hurt Jaeyoung, but it was Seunghyun himself who was hurt every time he said it. It’s a normal family. I never thought I would say something like that out of my mouth.
“Joo Jae-young, someday you have to stop having fun like this and marry a proper omega. “Now that Lee Seon-hoo is married, there is no room for regrets.”
“How does Mr. Han Seung-hyeon decide the succession?”
Since Seunghyeon was the only child of this world, he knew for granted that Jaeyoung had liked Seonhu for a long time. However, it was surprising to Jaeyoung that Seunghyeon knew about his relationship with Seonhu.
“… Of course, you know. “Whose spouse is Lee Seon-hoo?”
Since it was not a situation where there was nothing to say, Seunghyeon avoided the situation without any problem. He obviously didn’t want to think about the consequences and wanted to do something, but it turned around and ended up like this again.
“With just a little bit of research, you can figure out what was exchanged between the two, so why are you so surprised?”
Jaeyoung’s eyes were seen shaking violently. I guess Lee Seon-hoo is still the person who can sway Jae-young. When I thought about it like that, I felt a little depressed.
“Now that I think about it, Seonhoo Lee was passionate… “There was bound to be less resistance to enthusiasm.”
The reason the mean words came out might have been because I didn’t like those shaking eyes. Seunghyun bit his lip after saying something that didn’t need to be said and that hurt even himself.
“If I were an omega, I would at least propose to you. But what should I do? I’m enthusiastic, but I’m an alpha, and I don’t plan on living up to those expectations… .”
“stop.”
Jaeyoung interrupted Seunghyeon. He seemed angry, but also a little sad.
“I understand, so please stop.”
I just got the reaction I wanted, but it didn’t feel good. It’s really over now. Seunghyeon turned his gaze away from Jaeyoung.
“If that’s all you wanted to say, then go back now. “Thanks to you, I couldn’t do what I wanted to do, so I was exhausted.”
Now, we will no longer be able to call each other by the loose name of friend. I would be lying if I said I didn’t feel regretful, but it was true. Seunghyeon acted strong until the last moment.
“Or would Jaeyoung Joo do it for you? “That would be fine too.”
I thought there would either be no answer, or an answer that would give me one last punch at my stinging heart. As expected, there were no words from Jaeyoung, and Seunghyeon just turned his back on Jaeyoung.
“Thank you for taking me there. I will return your luggage at home if you want… .”
“is it so.”
Seunghyun smiled a little bitterly at the answer that came back before he finished speaking. I was lucky that Jaeyoung couldn’t see my expression.
“I will leave it as it is without touching it, so do whatever is convenient for you, whether you come and visit or send someone over.”
“No, that doesn’t really matter.”
no way. Seunghyeon stopped without turning around. A shadow a little longer than Seunghyeon’s walked towards him.
“If I interfered, I can take responsibility.”
A familiar but unfamiliar voice tickled Seunghyeon’s ears. It was the worst answer.
