Hidden Wife : Best Husband

Chapter 17 - 17 - Jo Yeon Ho

Manager Han closed the door loudly and made Soo Yin jump up in shock.

"Ugh, what an arrogant manager!" Soo Yin shouted, running back towards the window. 

She was still hoping her phone was stuck somewhere.

Soo Yin cleaned the room while pursing her lips the whole time. She was very annoyed because she lost her phone. 

She didn't have enough money to buy a new one.

As soon as she finished her jobs, the girl went straight out with reluctant steps.

Bug ...

A boy ran around until he hit Soo Yin's body. His body fell backwards on her hands.

"You really ...." Soo Yin didn't continue her words when she saw the boy's face. 

His eyes were slanted with brown colour, white skin and bowl hair cut. 

He really attracted everyone who saw him.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to," Said the little boy. He extended his hand to help Soo Yin get up.

"Ah, it's okay. Why are you running around like that?" Soo Yin asked with a smile.

"I can't wait to meet someone," The boy replied.

"What's  your name?" Soo Yin asked as she tried to get up to her feet.

"My name is Jo Yeon Ho, and you Auntie?" The boy reached out to shake hands.

"Call me Sis Soo Yin! Don't I look too young being called Auntie?" Said Soo Yin. 

It's normal if she didn't want to be called Auntie because she didn't have any children yet.

"All right, Sister," Said Jo Yeon Ho, bending down.

"Why are you here alone? Where are your parents?" Soo Yin asked when she saw no one was behind him

"I'm looking for my father. I want to surprise him," Said Jo Yeon Ho.

"A smart boy. Your father must have loved you very much." Soo Yin pinched Jo Yeon Ho's cheek.

"Where's the room? Why do you need to run around?" Soo Yin asked.

"My father is on the 10th floor. I don't dare to take the elevator. I'm afraid of being trapped like in the movies," Said Jo Yeon Ho in the typical accent of a six-year-old boy.

"Ha ha ha, my goodness. Let's take the elevator! I'll accompany you." Soo Yin laughed at how he was saying.

Soo Yin took Jo Yeon Ho to walk towards the elevator. Jo Yeon Ho was surprisingly easy to get along with. They actually just met, but they were easily close.

"Where is your mother?" Soo Yin asked as she was curious because a child like Jo Yeon Ho's age should still be under surveillance.

"My mother left after bringing me here," Said Jo Yeon Ho.

As soon as the lift stopped, they went straight out. Jo Yeon Ho grabbed Soo Yin's wrist to follow his lead.

"Can you go to your father's office by yourself? I have to go back to work because the manager here is very fierce," Soo Yin whispered in the boy's ear.

"Just tell my father to get him fired," Said Jo Yeon Ho.

"Ah, you are really a good boy. Next time I'll say it," Said Soo Yin while rubbing the top of Jo Yeon Ho's head. 

"Alright. Thank you Sis for escorting me," Said Jo Yeon Ho while bending his body and then running through the hotel hallway.

Soo Yin waved her hand then immediately returned to her original place to clean another room. 

Several days of not working made her body sore. So, lazily do her job.

Dae Hyun's Office.

"Daddy!" Jo Yeon Ho called his father as soon as he opened the door.

"Yeon Ho! You're back!" Said Dae Hyun. 

He immediately got up and squatted out his arms to embrace his son. 

"Dad, I really miss you," Said Jo Yeon Ho as he ran to hug Dae Hyun.

"Where's your mother?" Dae Hyun asked because he didn't see Aeri behind him.

"Mom's gone. I bought something for Daddy." Jo Yeon Ho took out something in his coat pocket.

Jo Yeon Ho brought out a pair of Kokeshi, which were Japanese souvenirs. They were carved woods that were perfect for decorative displays. 

One resembled a woman's carving, and the other one resembled a man.

"Are these all for daddy?" Dae Hyun asked as he reached out to take it.

"That was one for mommy but she doesn't like it. I'll give it to someone instead." Jo Yeon Ho only gave a Kokeshi that resembled a male face to Dae Hyun. 

"Who is she?" Dae Hyun asked, frowning.

"To someone who brought me here." Jo Yeon Ho returned the other one to his pocket.

"What's her name? Are you new to her?" Dae Hyun asked, feeling very curious.

"Sis Yin ... Yin ...." Said Jo Yeon Ho, remembering Soo Yin's name but he couldn't.

"Well, say my thanks to her for helping you," Said Dae Hyun, stroking Jo Yeon Ho's hair gently.

"If I see her again, I will definitely say it," Jo Yeon Ho replied, giving him a thumbs up.
