"How are you going to live from now on?"

Yoo Yeon-ho's words made Yoo Yeon-seo look at him.

"How will I live? What's there to figure out? I'll just continue as I have been living."

At first, it was tense, but now he had a sense of how to handle Yoo Eun-ho. Just maintain a proper balance and respond appropriately.

"But why ask that? Because of grandfather?"

"Hmm."

"Well, it's not like we're just going to meet for a meal. What do you think grandfather will say?"

Yoo Eun-ho didn't answer and stared intently at his younger brother. It was an expression as if seeing a stranger for the first time.

"What's wrong?"

"You being so cooperative, is it because of something?"

Thinking about what to say itself doesn't seem like an intention to resolve it through conversation with grandfather.

Yoo Yeon-seo felt a bit embarrassed for a moment, but at times like this, he had an invincible shield.

"He also crossed the threshold of death. Do you think his thoughts have changed?"

"...Really?"

A shield against death itself. The fact that no one suspected that Yoo Yeon-seo had changed during his hospitalization was precisely because of this reason.

In reality, who would suspect that someone's soul had changed? It's a story that might be found in science fiction novels. But unconsciously, he was thinking about the level of science in 2207 and was apprehensive about not getting caught alone.

"And pushing too much with grandfather would have had the opposite effect."

"How's your body?"

"I'm fine, that's why I was discharged. So, what do you think grandfather will say?"

Yoo Eun-ho spoke while looking out the window.

"He'll probably ask you to quit acting and help with the company's work."

"Ah, gee..."

"Well, you should have done it moderately."

Yoo Yeon-seo seemed to vaguely understand the meaning of those words.

The portfolio related to Yoo Yeon-seo's assets received through Im Seung-hyun was impressive to anyone who saw it. Unrealistically, there wasn't a single loss. It was staggering, like the scent of money, given the nickname "Money Ghost."

'It might be worth the trouble.'

As if catching attention weren't enough with a chaebol heir becoming an idol, this was an opportunity for the name "One-Seven" to become even more well-known. Of course, he didn't end up just receiving water and taking flight like a pigeon when the water came in.

Even though he had a short trainee period and was an unknown rookie, he got a perfect score on the college entrance exam. A clever kid like that, instead of doing company work that suits his brain, chose to be an actor, and now he's getting cursed. It must be heart-wrenching for his family.

"What do you think, Hyung? Should I work for the company?"

"I don't care whatever you do. Do what you want."

Yoo Yeon-seo squinted his eyes. Really?

Up until now, from the investigation, it was clear that Jusung Group was a formidable company. So, he would drool even more. The fights for succession in large conglomerates were not only in dramas but also sometimes exceeded them in reality.
