Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 265
Chapter 265: The Lazy One Receives Acclaim (5)
It’s not easy for someone to keep their word. It’s easier said than done.
In that sense, Wei Yanho didn’t seem like someone who would keep his promises. At least, that’s what Peng Dohyeong thought. But Peng Dohyeong didn’t know Wei Yanho well yet.
Wei Yanho, once he said something, always followed through.
It was the result of early education from Wei Jeonghan, who insisted that men should keep their words, and Wei Sanho’s unwavering belief in the saying “a man’s word is as good as gold.”
Wei Yanho unsheathed his sword and attacked Peng Jo-yeon.
“Aaaaaah! Lord Weeeeiiii!”
Peng Dohyeong ran towards Wei Yanho in horror. Of course, stopping Wei Yanho was impossible, but it was better than his father getting hurt.
It was the result of his filial piety and love for his family.
“Ugh! What a pain!”
Wei Yanho was annoyed to see Peng Dohyeong running towards him with a pale face.
He had to defeat that old man before his father arrived, but Peng Dohyeong was an annoying fly.
“Get out of the way!”
He wanted to send him flying, but since he knew him, he couldn’t hit him. Just as he was thinking about what to do, Wei Jeonghan kicked the door open.
“What’s going on here?!”
Wei Jeonghan shouted.
“Can’t you go a day without causing trouble? Why are you causing trouble again?!”
Wei Jeonghan’s anger exploded.
“You’re so Lazy, but you’re the most hardworking when it comes to causing trouble! Not even someone who wants to cause trouble does it this much!”
“…No, it’s just that…”
“At least be Lazy! You always hide in your room, but when I’m not around, you go out to cause trouble!”
Wei Yanho felt very unfairly treated.
Ho Cheolsan and the others had dragged him out of his room. Wei Yanho really wanted to stay in his room. But he was being misunderstood as if he were intentionally causing trouble.
“I’m not causing trouble…”
“You’re contradicting yourself again!”
This is unfair.
Very unfair.
Although Wei Yanho was furious, Wei Jeonghan just clicked his tongue.
“I’m not causing trouble, this guy attacked me first!”
“He attacked first?”
Wei Jeonghan scoffed.
That’s a joke.
Everyone had seen Wei Yanho defeat the Dark King. Why would they attack him?
Unless they were crazy…
“Huh?”
Yes, he was.
Wei Jeonghan’s eyes widened when he saw someone crazy behind him.
“L… Lord Dowan?”
“…Long time no see.”
Peng Jo-yeon greeted awkwardly.
‘He might have attacked first.’
If it was Dowan, it was possible. While others think before acting, Dowan acts first and then thinks.
During the rise of the Demon Cult, how many problems had this man caused?
‘He’s not a bad person…’
But that’s worse.
If he had bad intentions, one could take revenge, but since he has no bad intentions and cares about people, but makes things worse because of his bad temper, nothing can be said. That’s Dowan.
Wei Jeonghan looked at Dowan with an uncomfortable expression and then looked back at Wei Yanho.
“……”
Wei Yanho had an expression of deep injustice.
‘I’m sorry.’
He didn’t know it was him. If he had known, he wouldn’t have done it.
Wei Jeonghan smiled uncomfortably.
“Why did you come down?”
“I was called.”
“Who?”
“I don’t know. A lot of people gathered downstairs, so they told me to come down. I just wanted to sleep.”
“……Yes?”
Wei Jeonghan looked around after understanding the situation. The people who made eye contact with him looked away.
‘Damn it.’
They had caused so much commotion while he was away? Wei Jeonghan began to think about how to resolve the situation.
He understood why his son was like that, but he didn’t understand why Peng Jo-yeon was there.
“Long time no see, Lord Dowan.”
“Yeah… is it the first time since then?”
“Yes.”
Peng Jo-yeon sighed at Wei Jeonghan’s uncomfortable expression.
‘Wei Jeonghan.’
Wei Jeonghan was someone he had had many problems with in the past. Due to Wei Jeonghan’s strict and irascible personality, they often clashed.
Back then, because of their different positions, Dowan had been able to stand up to Wei Jeonghan…
‘But now, I think I’m at a disadvantage.’
Disadvantage or advantage isn’t determined by anyone. Seeing that he felt uncomfortable facing Wei Jeonghan, it seemed that Wei Yanho had completely surpassed the Peng family.
Dowan rubbed his face with an uncomfortable expression.
‘If I get beaten here, the Peng family won’t help me.’
Families are strange. If one member suffers harm, everyone helps, but if one member causes harm to the family, they abandon them.
There were already people in his family who didn’t like him due to his personality, and if he antagonized the current Wei family, no one would help him.
Meanwhile…
Peng Jo-yeon sighed as he saw Wei Yanho angry behind Wei Jeonghan.
‘That guy will get angry if his father is hit.’
Dowan realized how important it was to have a good son.
“What’s going on here?”
“Ah, I was passing by and heard that your son is famous, so I came to see him.”
“…But what’s going on here?”
Dowan scratched his head uncomfortably.
“It’s a common thing.”
He had seen it before, and he would see it again. Wei Jeonghan couldn’t find an excuse in Dowan’s response and sighed.
‘He did it again.’
He thought Wei Yanho had done it, but what if it was Dowan?
Wei Jeonghan looked at Wei Yanho. Wei Yanho had “heart” written on one cheek and “alcohol” on the other, and his cheeks were puffed up.
“Hmm…”
“It’s okay.”
Wei Yanho waved his hand.
Why? Normally, he would say he doesn’t trust his son…
“That’s how my father is. What’s new? When there are problems, he scolds me first. You don’t need to make excuses.”
“Ugh.”
As expected.
Wei Yanho wouldn’t understand that.
“I understand the situation. Then…”
How do I solve this?
Wei Jeonghan was annoyed.
‘I should let him get beaten!’
Considering the problems between him and Dowan, he wanted to leave, but he felt affection for him, so he didn’t want him to get beaten.
“It seems there’s a misunderstanding.”
“Misunderstanding?”
Wei Yanho glared furiously.
“What misunderstanding makes someone attack another person?”
“…Yes?”
“If there are two misunderstandings, I’ll kill him. No, if I don’t stop him, I’ll kill him! Or I’ll hand him over to the authorities!”
Wei Jeonghan nodded.
Wei Yanho was right.
“Why did you do that?”
“……”
Dowan was speechless.
Normally, he wouldn’t be able to hold back, but Wei Yanho was like medicine that calmed anger.
“What do you want to do?”
“If I was attacked first, I must retaliate.”
“But he’s older…”
“There’s no age in the martial world.”
“True.”
Wei Jeonghan began to agree with Wei Yanho.
“Also, father, you said we couldn’t look weak. If I let it pass, people will hit me.”
Although that’s not good.
Wei Jeonghan looked at Wei Yanho.
It seemed that Wei Yanho wouldn’t stop until he had hit Peng Jo-yeon.
Also, objectively, Wei Yanho hadn’t done anything wrong.
“Then…”
Wei Jeonghan slowly backed away. Escape…
Snap!
Someone grabbed his arm.
Dowan looked at Wei Jeonghan with horror and whispered:
“Why are you leaving?”
“As you can see.”
Wei Jeonghan replied indifferently:
“Although I’m his father, stopping him in this situation isn’t right.”
“What about me?”
“Why did you attack someone who wasn’t doing anything?”
“My… my personality is like this.”
“I can’t stop him anymore. He would even hit his father if he had the guts…”
Wei Yanho was demoted to a disobedient son. But those words seemed to worry Peng Jo-yeon.
“H… help me.”
“I can’t help you.”
“I’ll do whatever you say. Just help me out of this situation.”
Dowan looked around anxiously. The Dark King had demonstrated what happens if one is hit by Wei Yanho in front of so many people.
“Hmm.”
Wei Jeonghan looked at Dowan indifferently and said:
“Anything?”
“Anything!”
“Hmm.”
Wei Jeonghan nodded and approached Wei Yanho to whisper something in his ear.
Wei Yanho’s expression changed as he listened, and then he nodded.
“Then!”
When Wei Yanho stepped back, Wei Jeonghan smiled and looked at Dowan.
‘What did he say to him?’
And what should I do?
Wei Jeonghan walked towards him. The closer he got, the more anxious Dowan felt.
Wei Jeonghan approached Dowan and whispered:
“Just take one hit.”
“…What?”
“I’ll help you resolve it in private.”
“Take a hit?”
“That guy is very petty and will never forget that you attacked him. I’ve negotiated for you to only take one hit without resisting. But privately. I can’t do more.”
Dowan’s mind began to spin.
Taking a hit without resisting or resisting and taking a hit, which is better?
Dowan, who saw the crowd looking at him, nodded. It was better if fewer people saw it.
“…It has to be done in private.”
“Of course.”
That’s how another victim appeared.
