I Became a Genius Law School Student Episode 61
“Oh no no. master.”
Driver Choi who stopped his car on the shoulder of the road for a moment began to dissuade me.
“You are the one who showed me grace by taking care of me who had a bad leg and no talent. “I can’t delay your work due to my circumstances…”
“I take responsibility.”
“yes?”
“That bastard messed up his dog’s behavior and ended up taking a different route home. Driver Choi was dragged around forcibly because of me. “You know.”
“Master Do….”
Driver Choi looked at us with wide eyes.
“Let’s go.”
I think we have recovered to a position where we can commit this level of overreach.
Is there any reason why I should rush to go to my old friend who won’t show up until late in the evening anyway? All we had to do was arrive before evening.
“….”
At my insistence Driver Choi reluctantly started the car.
The inside of the car was unusually quiet. Only the hum of the engine and the occasional sound of Driver Choi tapping and hitting the steering wheel irregularly flowed through the silence.
Since I am not the type of person who is uncomfortable with silence I was just killing time by looking at the scenery outside the window passing by.
‘Hmm the ride is good.’
I didn’t know much about cars but I knew well that the Benz that Driver Choi was driving was quite expensive.
I don’t know if that’s why but the ride was comfortable enough that I dozed off.
These were all luxuries he could enjoy thanks to possessing the body of a rich family’s child.
As I was letting those useless thoughts go Driver Choi suddenly stopped the car.
“It won’t work either.”
Driver Choi pursed his lips.
“Thank you for your consideration Master. However going against the will of the elder is not enough and I cannot put pressure on the master.”
Then he tried to turn the car again.
‘No this frustrating person.’

It was good to have strong loyalty but at this level it was sick.
Driver Choi suffered a leg disability while working at a factory and almost lost everything.
As he was able to survive and recover from the edge of a cliff with the help of Park Geon Knight Choi’s attitude toward our family was almost at the level of faith.
His love for his daughter was not light.
On the contrary he had such a deep love for his family that he was overjoyed at gifts for his children and was always upset about not being able to send them to school.
It’s just that like a religious fundamentalist his loyalty to Park Geon is so deep that it has become his belief to carry out his instructions without going against even a single detail.
‘Because he is this kind of person Park Geon trusts him and keeps him by his side…’
Even though there was no flexibility there was a degree of degree.
“Please wait a moment.”
I took out my cell phone and made a call.
“Where is the phone suddenly?”
“I bet my father.”
“Yes yes…?!”
Tu-du-.
Whether Engineer Choi was surprised or not the beep continued.
The group’s owner wasn’t someone I could call on at any time but whatever. I am his son.
If you say you can’t answer because of work just call again later.
– What?
Coincidentally Park Geon answered the phone right away.
“I have something to tell you. “I think I’ll be a little late.”
– …You’re late?
“But I’ll be there before I see you in the evening.”
-What is the reason?
It was still difficult to read emotions in a voice like an old tree. But it was clear that he would not be so pleased with it.
As a successful businessman Park Geon placed great importance on punctuality in any matter and due to his unique self-righteousness he hated it when others did not do as he specified.
But there were exceptions to that too.
“You can’t do it Master!”
“Chairman Choi I heard your daughter has a school event today. “You have never been able to be with me like that in your entire life.”
“Ah ah…!”
I calmly explained the reason.
Knight Choi held his head while muttering something like how should I apologize to the old man and the master for the trouble he caused.
Park Geon who was on the other side of the smartphone remained silent for a long time and then blurted out a word.
– Is Driver Choi driving now?
“It was parked on the shoulder of the road for a while.”
-Change it.
What I meant was that I would speak directly to Driver Choi.
As instructed I handed the smartphone over to Technician Choi and he took it with trembling hands and held it to his ear as if he had committed a mortal sin.

“It’s my fault sir. I am”
– Article Choi.
Park Geon cut him off.
– I’m disappointed in you.
“…!”
– Why didn’t you tell me first?
“…yes?”
– Did Park Geon seem like such a poor person that he didn’t even allow time to be with his family?
“Uh old man?”
– Come back. Arrive just before 7 o’clock.
“ah….”
Park Geon hung up the call.
Technician Choi held the smartphone which was no longer making any sound blankly for a long time.
‘Let’s talk about it sooner.’
Park Geon is not a very generous person.
He always imposes strict standards even on those he considers his and there are countless followers who were pushed out because they did not meet his standards.
However family issues were an exception.
Love for family is the most primal and deepest form of devotion.
As an outstanding manager Park Geon knew very well that he could never maintain the loyalty of his subordinates by depriving him of time to devote to his family.
If you had asked Park Geon first he would have easily given permission.
It’s just that Knight Choi’s obsessive loyalty kept him from even daring to think about it.
In times like this it was effective to push the person’s back even if only slightly forcibly.
“….”
Driver Choi shook his shoulders as if swallowing something welling up in him.
I pretended not to notice for a moment and looked out the window and then he gave me back the smartphone.
“Thank you Master.”
Driver Choi bowed his head.
“Did I do something? Now let’s go. “We must arrive on time.”
“yep!”
His movement of stepping on the accelerator was unusually powerful and cheerful.
* * *
Choi Soobin has never once resented his father.
He wasn’t even ashamed of his crippled father.
Her father worked hard despite his discomfort and supported Choi Soo-bin so that she could grow up without lacking anything.
Rather I was filled with only respect.
I understand that you are busy every day and that it is difficult to see your face.
My father is the personal driver of the owner family of the Yuseong Group.
It was natural to always be with them in their every move and the days when they came home were rare.
There was no way I could complain about eating clothing sleeping and studying with the money I earned.
Seongmoon High School which she attended was an autonomous private high school famous for its expensive tuition.
Be thankful for what you have rather than complain about what you don’t have.
Using that one sentence as her creed Soobin Choi has managed to live strong.
He studied well enough to reach a single-digit rank at Seongmoon High School which is considered to have a good academic record.
It’s just a little lonely.
Especially on days like this.
“dad!”
Without realizing it I turn my attention to where the sound came from.
A middle-aged man with a slightly awkward expression is standing in front of Soobin Choi’s classmate.
“I told you the invitation event would be held at the gym! “Why did you come here? It’s so embarrassing!”
My friend a female student scolded my father but she didn’t seem to truly hate him.
It was just a childish complaint typical of a teenager.
Her father also seemed to know this and just smiled and accepted it.
The girl grunted and left for the gym pushing her father’s back.
There were few students left in the classroom.
This is because like a child who has just left he has already left with his parents to the gymnasium where the invitational event is being held.
The only one left alone was Choi Soobin.
“Are you alone again?”
Someone’s harsh voice pointed out that fact.
“…what.”
“Because it’s funny to see Cheongseung shaking.”
When I raised my head I made eye contact with a female student who was smiling evilly.
The name tag on her chest has the name Kang So-hee engraved on it.
Although she lived quietly she was jealous of Choi Soo-bin who had good grades and was harassed in many ways.
Spreading bad rumors or starting fights like this.
She didn’t deal with it because she thought it was childish but Kang So-hee didn’t know how to stop.
“I was alone during my freshman year and I was alone last year as well. “Are you alone again this year?”
“…what are you asking me to do?”
“I just want to know how unloved the child is.”
“what?”
At that moment Soobin Choi glared fiercely at Sohee Kang. Kang So-hee chuckled as if she thought this was it.
“no? “Then why aren’t you coming?”
“…Father is busy. Even if you want to come you can’t.”
“Ah that’s right.”
Kang So-hee laughed.
“Of course you will. My father a corporate executive even canceled his schedule. Look at other kids’ parents too. “The owner of a popular store and a high-ranking government official all attended somehow but your unknown father was ‘busy’ and couldn’t come.”
Seongmoon High School’s parents’ invitation event was actually not just a formality.
In order to afford the high tuition fees here you inevitably have to come from a somewhat wealthy family.
As students have good academic records they also go to good universities and advance into all walks of life but their parents are not easy people either.
Therefore a kind of dual human network is formed at Seongmun High School.
Parents are parents and children are children.
It is a place for networking where we can provide help to each other in any form anywhere in the future.
Parents were not forced to make time to show up at school events.
“….”
Choi Soobin did not answer.
Although she never resented her father she couldn’t confidently nod when asked if there was even a moment when she doubted her father’s love when she was young.
That’s why she was always alone.
When I got into my parents’ car when some friends came to pick me up after night self-study was over.
Even when I come home and eat the cold side dishes I bought at the market by myself.
And even now.
Kang So-hee’s speculation was digging into her only complex.
If she had continued to attack in this direction Kang So-hee might have won against Choi Soo-bin for the first time in her life.
However Kang So-hee lost her footing at a critical point.
“Oh no. okay. “You’re right.”
Suddenly Sohee Kang applauded.
“If you don’t work so hard that you can never come back or if you have a ‘home without a home’ that you can’t even pay tuition… that’s possible.”
‘what?’
“Your house is a beggar. So I always wear my school uniform. I don’t even know how to decorate it. It’s all Tina. “Did you think I didn’t know?”
Choi Soobin was so dumbfounded that he opened his mouth.
The reason she did not spend money on clothes or decorations was because of her frugal nature.
The weight of loneliness felt in an empty house was equal to the weight of my father’s sweat while he was busy working.
If the money given to her was the price she could never waste it.
However Kang So-hee mistook this as evidence of a poor family paying excessive amounts of tuition.
In the first place all the talk about the beloved child was just a build-up to bring out this story.
“The kids here live so well how can it not be noticeable if they go around alone? “Do you know how much the hoodie I’m wearing is worth?”
I don’t know. Because I’m not interested.
“You know my boyfriend Jaeseung right? The watch he wears is a Rolex. “You go to a school like this.”
When Choi Soo-bin did not reply Kang So-hee misunderstood that she was at a loss for words and started talking even more triumphantly.
How much do my clothes cost? Your whole body is dripping with shame… The words I picked up bounced off my ears in a dizzying manner.
Kang So-hee must have thought that this was ignoring her so she got angry and grabbed Choi Soo-bin by the shoulder.
“Hey you now….”
At that moment the classroom door suddenly opened.
