Chaotic Nights ā Chapter 70. Cigarette Case (2)
Translator: Atlas
Weekly Chapter 6/6
The note contained Simdeok’s thoughts.
[I don’t want you to become Jongshin’s concubine. So go. Tell me the day to help you. I will give you compensation. Then you can live with your sister. This is the last thing I can do for you. I hope you go far away.]
The word that caught Yongi’s attention the most was compensation. Simdeok had enough power to help her escape from this place.
Yong put the note back in the cigarette case. Then she lit a cigarette.
Cough, cough. She coughed. She thought there must be a reason why Simdeok had sent Chunhee to a place so far away.
“…Hmm.”
Her head was spinning.
Her tears fell like the day she drank alcohol for the first time.
Yongi rested her hands on the floor. Then she whispered something to Chunhee. She nodded, took the cigarette case and opened the door with a cheerful expression.
She soon ran into Shihoon.
“Young Master, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you.”
“How can a courtesan enter a nobleman’s house?”
“I’m sorry. I was worried about my friend Yongi…”
“You were so worried that you brought cigarettes…!”
Shihoon’s eyes fell on Yongi, who was leaning against the wall, unable to regain her composure. Chunhee clenched her fist.
“Don’t you ever come in again. Do you understand?”
“Yes, yes. I’m sorry. It was simply a mistake.”
Shihoon entered the room before Chunhee left. The interior was littered with cigarette ashes, it looked like several cigarettes had been smoked.
He ordered her to bring water. Yongi, who only regained her composure after she drank cold water, pushed Shihoon’s chest. She walked to a corner.
“I heard Sohyeon came… It’s not possible…”
Shihoon deeply sighed. When he approached Yongi, he stroked her cheek.
“That’s not your problem. So don’t do anything stupid. You carelessly smoked.”
“Young Master…”
“I don’t want to listen to you. You’ll stay in the room today.”
Shihoon guided Yongi half forcibly. He lifted her body. When the attendees looked at her, she covered her face with both hands.
Chunhee, who watched this scene closely, left with a strange expression.
Go to the fabric store. Eunha will go there.

Its skin came off with a single cut from the knife. Its huge tiger fangs were ripped out. Eunha, who sat on the ground, suppressed nausea at the cruel sight.
Numerous merchants negotiated the price of the tiger. It was the first time they had seen such a big tiger, so the price went up a lot.
It felt strange because it was the first time the mansion was so noisy.
“Hey…”
A warrior limped to her side. When Eunha looked at his splintered leg, realized that he was the man the tiger had wounded.
“Are you the warrior from back then?”
“Yes. If it weren’t for you, I really would have died.”
The man staring at Eunha knelt down. The warrior stammered,
“I apologize that I ignored you because you are a woman. Thank you for saving my life. Then, next time I will protect your life. I promise.”
The warrior, who waited for Eunha’s response, raised his head in surprise at the strange presence. The Lord, who had covered Eunha’s entire body with a thick shroud, held her in his arms.
“It’s cold, Eunha. It’s time to apply the ointment.”
