Chaotic Nights ā Chapter 69. Cigarette Case (1)
Translator: Atlas
Weekly Chapter 5/6
Chunhee sat across from Yongi with an embarrassed expression. Yongi, who was considered the flower of the courtesan house, was in such an ordinary place.
When Chunhee knew that she would leave the courtesan house, she thought that she would move to a luxurious concubine room. Even if Yongi said she wanted to live modestly, she had been a courtesan. She was a flower among flowers who didn’t even pay attention to the most common treasures.
But Chunhee was wrong. She wore shabby clothes as if she were a refugee. It was strange that she still looked beautiful.
Chunhee told her,
“I was surprised when I heard you were here.”
“The owner sent me here… I can’t believe you didn’t know.”
Yongi’s eyes slowly changed, after her cold reply. Chunhee laughed.
“Looks like I was wrong.”
“Why did you come?”
The smile on Chunhee’s face disappeared at Yongi’s attitude, she treated her like an unwanted visitor. Chunhee pulled out a cigarette case.
“Do you want to smoke?”
“No.”
“Then I’m the only one who smokes.”
Chunhee opened the window a little, then lit the cigarette.
Soon, a pungent smell filled the interior. Chunhee lightly coughed.
“I heard that the Prince was the one who got you out. Did you know?”
Yongi showed interest.
“The Prince.”
“You didn’t know? You know that the house where Eunha is belongs to the Prince. Until recently he was the Crown Prince. This is unbelievable. It looks like Eunha asked him to get you out of that place. Why are you here?”
Yongi covered her mouth.
She remembered the day her father was killed, the boy silently observing the situation. His gaze always remained on Eunha.
His gaze frightened her so much that she believed a monster disguised as a human lived in the palace. But now he was Eunha’s owner.
“You really didn’t know?”
Chunhee had memorized these words before coming.
Simdeok had asked her to tell her anything strange about Yongi.
Chunhee remembered what Simdeok had promised to give her.
“I heard that Yoon Jongshin took me as a concubine…. That’s why I stay here. But I haven’t heard anything else, how can I become his concubine?”
“My God, this is ridiculous, will you become the Minister’s concubine…? Then what will happen to Young Master Shihoon’s mother?”
“Chunhee!”
Yongi shouted in surprise. Then she opened the door to let the cigarette smoke out. She felt dizzy from the smoke.
“If you plan to say weird things, go away. I will never be Yoon Jongshin’s concubine.”
“Then do you want to become Young Master’s concubine?”
Chunhee took Yongi’s hand. Her eyes turned red.
“Don’t even think about it. Even if you get involved with nobles, you’ll only end up abandoned! So come to your senses. It’s better for you to live like you’re dead.”
“Chunhee…”
“I’ll go visit Eunha. You can’t leave here. The Master’s people are outside. At least give me a letter. I’ll help you.”
Chunhee held out the cigarette case again.
Yongi found a small note inside.
