Unlike the Ocean, where only cold water would come out, the young master's home had warm water gushing out abundantly. Nowadays, the weather wasn't that cold, but being able to rinse my body with warm water was a rare luxury. Perhaps that's why, despite knowing water was precious, I ended up dawdling a bit. Before entering the Ocean, I would collect rainwater in a leaky bucket to wash myself. During the rainy summer, I could manage somehow, but in the freezing winters, it was sheer agony. The water was…- 243.8 K • Ongoing

The room with a hand-sized window was the dormitory shared by the Oceans employees. It was small enough to barely fit my body, but having a private room was a stroke of luck. The other employees had to sleep with the same blanket, cramped together in the large shared space. At first, I also shared a room with the other employees, but at night there were those who would grope me, so my sleeping arrangement was changed. To be precise, it was because every time I couldn't endure it and flipped them over…- 243.8 K • Ongoing

Clang! The liquor glass that fell to the floor shattered with a loud noise. The neatly arranged food was strewn all over the place, and the tableware and other items came tumbling down. I struggled to sit up, but the effort only caused the back of my head to slam into the table. "Ugh...!" Just as a scream was about to escape my lips, a large hand quickly covered my mouth. As I struggled to breathe, the man used brute strength to pin me down. "Stay still for a moment..." he muttered in a voice rough…- 243.8 K • Ongoing

"...Hyung?" I couldn't help but repeat him, especially since Joo Do-hwa was nodding as if he had done me a great favor. "In return, you'll speak informally to me. How's that?" "You want me to speak informally?" This was the most absurd condition yet. If I were to speak informally to Joo Do-hwa while he uses honorifics with me, I would be the one benefiting, not him. Of course, the content itself wasn't exactly something I was eager about either, but at least he wouldn't be gaining…- 243.8 K • Ongoing

The gate with bars like iron bars was so huge that it couldn't be opened by human hands. With a creak and a majestic sound, as the entrance opened, an imposingly large garden unfolded. Along the path leading inside, rows of statues were decorating the way, and following that path, a lavish fountain emerged in the middle of the garden. If my memory serves me correctly, there was also a swimming pool big enough to host a party in the backyard. With sun loungers, tables, and a pool bar, that place was…- 243.8 K • Ongoing

The goods coming across the sea all pass through the hands of the 4HAE Group. Even the behind-the-scenes manipulations that have not yet been openly revealed would be well-known to those who are well-informed about that side's news. For that reason, Theo, who is standing in front of me, must also be aware of the manipulations. "'Even a country'...Does he have any self-awareness?" Theo let out a hollow laugh for a moment, as if finding it unbelievable. It seemed like he was asking if I understood how…- 243.8 K • Ongoing

"Ah, this one..." The boss's face showed clear distress, as if he wished he could hide me away at that very moment. I understood. After losing his temper and beating me, the aftermath must have left him in an awkward position. With the comment about sloppy item management, presenting me as an item had become awkward. He had been planning to sell me all along, but now he had single-handedly ruined everything. "This one is... not for sale." The boss had no choice but to hastily backtrack. Even…- 243.8 K • Ongoing

"This isn't a problem that can be solved just by selling you off! Huh?" The boss shouted so loudly that the veins in his neck bulged. Every time he spoke, a slap followed, and before I could even swallow the blood, more excruciating pain came rushing in. I clenched my teeth reflexively, but who knows, my teeth might be loose by the time this was over. "Boss." Smack! Just as another slap hit and I staggered, Lingling cautiously approached. The boss paused and turned to her, and Lingling gently…- 243.8 K • Ongoing
