    I Became a Genius Law School Student Episode 62

    When I visited the classroom where his daughter attended with Engineer Choi I encountered a somewhat unexpected situation.

    A girl wearing a school uniform with Kang So-hee written on it was pointing out Driver Choi’s daughter.

    Before anything more serious could happen I opened the classroom door and jumped inside.

    However Knight Choi’s daughter Choi Su-bin was just looking at this direction with a blank expression not paying attention to Kang So-hee’s hand holding her shoulder.

    “Oh dad…?”

    “Yes Dad.”

    “Didn’t you say you couldn’t come?”

    “Master used some strength. “I’m sorry I wasn’t able to contact you because I was in a hurry.”

    Driver Choi approached his daughter with a limping gait.

    “student.”

    Then he gently scolded Kang So-hee.

    “I think there was a fight with my child. Would you like to put your hand down first and talk it out?”

    Kang So-hee who must have been momentarily intimidated by the appearance of an unfamiliar adult withdrew her hand and walked away.

    “…your father?”

    “okay. that’s right.”

    Choi Soobin nodded confidently.

    “My dad.”

    There was something in that proudly positive voice that made even me cry as I listened to it.

    The person involved Knight Choi just stood there without saying a word as if he was completely choked.

    “under.”

    Kang So-hee frowned as if pouring cold water on that emotion.

    “It’s worth knowing. It’s worth knowing.”

    The tone was full of malice.

    “Are you even crippled? At best I’ll work as an assistant at a restaurant or a taxi driver. “Yeah it’s not worth coming.”

    “…What did you just say?”

    “What would you do if you came in the first place? Rather it would be embarrassing on your part to ask your father not to come. “Puhup.”

    Kang So-hee chose some mean words and spit them out.

    Regardless of the issue regarding Article Choi the attitude of looking down on people with disabilities and certain occupations was very unpleasant.

    It was hard to believe that the line was coming from the mouth of a nineteen-year-old girl not an adult who had been hardened by decades of wrong life trajectory.

    ‘Well what should I do?’

    I could step forward but this is the school that Knight Choi’s daughter attends.

    If you arbitrarily intervene and end up harming them you are dishonorable. I glanced at Driver Choi’s gaze.

    “….”

    Driver Choi also looked embarrassed.

    Although he heard very insulting words to his face he also seemed to be struggling to respond since he was inside his daughter’s school.

    Knight Choi’s honor and pride are not so weak that they can be damaged by a few words from a high school student.

    However the damage done to a child’s heart cannot be undone.

    Just as I was examining Knight Choi’s complexion Knight Choi was looking at Choi Soobin and choosing his words carefully and cautiously.

    It was a time when two adults were just watching.

    “uh? “What are you doing now?”

    Choi Soobin jumped up from his seat.

    Then she picked up the coffee cup that Sohee Kang had put down on the desk next to her before she started arguing with her.

    The half-full glass of iced coffee had the logo of a famous brand I was familiar with.

    “You you”

    Choi Soobin held it high and flipped it upside down on Kang Sohee’s head.

    “What!”

    Cold and sticky coffee poured on Kang So-hee.

    My hair instantly resembled that of a drowned rat and the pure white cardigan I wore over my school uniform was stained brown.

    It’s as if I’m accusing you of having such a dirty and ugly color in your heart.

    ‘He seemed calm. ‘He was a friend with quite hot hands.’

    Is this something called external oil internal power?

    I can’t say it was a very appropriate response but I honestly wanted to applaud Choi Soo-bin’s attitude of staring at Kang So-hee confidently without being at all discouraged.

    “Crazy bitch. “Do you know how much this costs?”

    Kang So-hee who was embarrassed and speechless at first soon began to curse.

    “…Ask me. What are you going to do if this doesn’t get erased? “Take responsibility and take responsibility!”

    At the same time isn’t he trying to grab Choi Soo-bin by the collar?

    “Well wait a minute.”

    At that moment I jumped between the two people and blocked Kang So-hee.

    “…what are you?”

    ‘Oh my gosh I don’t even use polite language anymore.’

    The reason I was watching the situation was because I was concerned that the situation would escalate through unnecessary intervention.

    However since your daughter had already made a refreshing coffee baptism the problem had already arisen in some way.

    In that case it wouldn’t get any worse even if an outsider tried to intervene and take care of things.

    “Chief Engineer Choi.”

    Instead of answering Kang So-hee I called Driver Choi.

    “Did I give you a bonus this month?”

    “Yes yes?”

    Driver Choi looked puzzled by the unexpected comment.

    Actually it was worth it. Technically his employer is Park Gun and his salary is paid from Park Gun’s personal account.

    Driver Choi has no history of receiving any kind of money let alone a bonus from me.

    However when I squinted my eyes from an angle that Kang So-hee could not see he seemed to have noticed something and nodded and adjusted his gaze to me.

    “Not yet master.”

    “As expected. Then… let’s replace it with this.”

    I search my pocket and take out a bundle of money.

    This money was set aside as an emergency fund for fear that Park Geon might one day cut off support for his son when he became possessed.

    I always carried it with me so that I could use it even if I was kicked out of the house overnight.

    He picked up a bundle of 50000 won bills that were thick enough to be worth millions of won and threw them into Kang So-hee’s arms.

    Kang So-hee’s eyes widen as she unconsciously takes it and holds it.

    “I heard that it’s something expensive? I don’t know much about girls’ clothes. “Is this not enough?”

    At the same time he took out another bundle and thrust it at Kang So-hee.

    “Buy a new one.”

    A word that seemed to drive a wedge.

    “Don’t bother me with that ‘penny money.’”

    Kang So-hee opened her mouth and looked at me.

    “What is it? “What are you doing with this kind of money?”

    “Me? “This is my employer.”

    I pointed at Knight Choi with a polite gesture.

    “And there is nothing to be surprised about. “Even ten times that it’s still less than Driver Choi’s salary.”

    “What do you say…?”

    It was a lie about being an employer but the salary part was the truth without an ounce of distortion.

    In the first place Driver Choi is not just a driver.

    As a confidant of the owner of the world’s Yuseong Group he was receiving an annual salary exceeding that of most corporate executives.

    Knight Choi had a habit of underestimating himself as someone without much talent but if he were truly incompetent there was no way he would have Park Geon around.

    The reason he did not indulge in extravagance was due to his simple nature not because of lack of circumstances.

    “What?”

    Kang So-hee’s face turned red.

    Poverty of the heart cannot be filled with anything but material wealth was very easily broken in the face of greater wealth.

    I was intentionally behaving more like a pauper in the hope that this young friend would learn and change his mind.

    ‘Well if it’s rotten from the root it can’t be fixed…’

    That is something that cannot be helped.

    Kang So-hee was shaking as if she didn’t know what to do with the bundle of money in her hand.

    It would hurt my pride to accept it like this but it is too much of an amount to refuse.

    Kang So-hee is not the daughter of some conglomerate or large landowner.

    Of course it must have been a wealthy and generous family but it was not a real one when it came to bragging about the price of the clothes on its body in the first place.

    As a child who did not earn his own money and used it as pocket money it was not money that could be easily ignored.

    Kang So-hee who was conflicted eventually pursed her lips and stuffed the money into her handbag.

    ‘Once you get that it’s over.’

    This is a world where the once boasted economic power has been divided up and down. There was no way I could have been more proud.

    I thought that way for a moment.

    “…Jolbu.”

    Kang So-hee spit out between her lips that were bitten so hard that they looked like they might bleed at any moment.

    “Don’t think you won with this. “You look like you’re the son of a wealthy family but that’s not the money you earned anyway!”

    ‘…You said that line?’

    “I am different from people like you who only have money given by their parents.”

    Like a castaway who barely managed to climb back from the edge of a cliff Kang So-hee was desperately trying to find something to protect her pride.

    I suddenly became curious about that desolation. On what basis will this child claim his superiority?

    “Because I am someone who will become a prosecutor later.”

    However the line that came out was so unexpected.

    “…huh?”

    “Do you know where this place is?”

    “It’s Seongmun High School right?”

    “is it so. Seongmun High School. “It is one of the top five schools in the country to send Korean universities to.”

    Kang So-hee smiled crookedly.

    “And I am one of the top 10 brightest students in the school.”

    “So?”

    At this point I can’t control my facial expressions.

    I could barely stop myself from laughing.

    It’s quite funny to call yourself a genius but is it really true that the career path you mention in such a proud manner is the legal profession?

    “If you get these grades at our school you will definitely go to Korea University. It’s a place where all the kids who say I’m long gather but I can beat them all. “I will go through many hardships and get into law school at Hankuk University.”

    “aha.”

    “I am different from people who trust their parents’ money and spend money or at best come to other people’s high schools and brag about their money. “If you take that away you’ll be left with nothing but I have the skills and my future is guaranteed.”

    As she spoke Kang So-hee gradually regained her momentum.

    I knew this type very well.

    A person who cannot stand it if he or she is not ‘higher’ than the other person.

    These poor people are wrapping themselves up with overflowing pride but in reality their foundation of self-esteem is so weak that they try to protect their poor souls by clinging to the standards set by others.

    “A poor man like you has probably never achieved anything through his own efforts in his entire life. I’m not. Not only did I study I won a lot of awards at national competitions and I did a lot of networking so I already know some seniors at Hankuk University Law School. see.”

    Then Sohee Kang held out her smartphone.

    The screen was filled with records boasting of her accomplishments.

    A report card plastered with 1st grade or a certificate from a competition.

    As I watch it as if I am interested I feel even more proud and turn the pages.

    ‘…huh?’

    However the ‘known senior’ she boasted about was a face I knew very well.

    ‘It’s just a rumor.’
