Chapter 248: PROUD PARENTS

    <h4>Chapter 248: PROUD PARENTS</h4>


    SEULGI returned to speaking in third person after her wonderful introduction.


    But it was fine.


    Garam was already beyond proud that Seulgi didn’t get shy in front of a huge crowd, especially when most of them were strangers.


    His bubbly daughter greeted everyone with a smile.


    But, of course, Seulgi was obviously happier when she was with people that she was alreadyfortable with. Like her grandparents...


    ... or Garam’s former group members.


    Yes, they all made it despite their busy schedules.


    Gong Hanseo also came with Dr. Seong Kyungmin— his hyung’s now-fiancé.


    Oh, right.


    Garam remembered that he sent a message to Gong Hanseo the other day.


    His close hyung said that they should talk in private soon.


    <i>I don’t think we can talk privately this time, though.</i>


    "Dad, can I introduce Seulgi to my ssmates?"


    Before Garam could say anything, Song Gunwoo had already "snatched" Seulgi from his arms.


    Gently, of course.


    "Uncle Junho has already brought Bam and Sunny to the parlor room," Song Gunwoo aid while carrying Seulgi in his arms. ’Bam’ would be his ck cat, while ’Sunny’ would be his newly adopted puppy. It was a miracle that Bam and Sunny got along fine, so they could bring the cat and the dog everywhere without the two fighting. "My ssmates want to meet my baby sister and my pets."


    Yes, Song Gunwoo had already asked for permission to bring his pets to the party in advance.


    Apparently, his son’s ssmates wanted to meet his pets.


    But since some of the guests might be allergic to dogs and cats, Song Sihyuk reserved a parlor room where Song Gunwoo and his ssmates could hang out.


    The parlor room was actually like a smaller ballroom.


    <i>I’m d that Sihyuk Hyung reserved that room for the kids. The party for the adults might bore them.</i>


    "Alright. Go and introduce your baby sister to your friends," Garam said while fixing the little tiara on Seulgi’s head. "Junho Hyung will be with you, but I’d like it if you look after Seulgi yourself, Gunwoo-ya."


    "Of course, Dad," Song Gunwoo said confidently. "Seulgi is safe with me."


    "Your dad and I will greet your ssmatester," Song Sihyuk said, patting Song Gunwoo’s back. "Hang out with them in the meantime."


    Song Gunwoo smiled and nodded. "I will, Daddy."


    "Bye-bye, Dada, Didi," Seulgi, who clearly understood what was happening, said cheerfully while waving to Garam and Song Sihyuk. "Seulgi will y with Gunwoo Oppa."


    Garam smiled and nodded. "y to your heart’s content, baby."


    After that, Song Gunwoo left the hall with Seulgi.


    Naturally, at least ten men dressed in in ck suits followed his son.


    Those men were led by Shin Geon.


    <i>Whenever I’m with Sihyuk Hyung, Geon Hyung bes my children’s personal bodyguard.</i>


    "I think it’s about time for Gunwoo to have his own personal bodyguard," Song Sihyuk said. "Shin Jina is too young to be his official aide, so we need to appoint a professional one in the meantime."


    Garam nodded in agreement.


    Of course, Song Gunwoo had a security team dedicated to him.


    But Song Sihyuk was talking about appointing an aide for their son, just like how Jung Han was to Song Sihyuk, and how Shin Geon was to Garam.


    <i>What Gunwoo needs now is a loyal aide-sh-bodyguard.</i>


    "I want to be included when choosing Gunwoo’s aide, Hyung."


    "Of course, honey."


    Garam nodded, satisfied.


    And then he got distracted when he caught his younger members waving at him.


    Kwon Jigu, Finn, and Lee Eunsang were calling him ’hyung, hyung’ as if they hadn’t seen each other for a decade.


    <i>My precious dongsaengs.</i>


    Gong Hanseo wasn’t with the kids, though.


    Oh, well.


    <i>I’m sure Hanseo Hyung is with Dr. Seong somewhere here.</i>


    "Sihyuk Hyung, I’ll just greet my dongsaengs," Garam said, removing Song Sihyuk’s arm around his waist. "The kids are scared of me, so go and greet your business partners."


    <strong>***</strong>


    "OH, MY! She’s so cute!"


    "Gunwoo-ya, your baby sister is like a doll!"


    "She’s truly a princess!"


    Song Gunwoo smiled proudly while his ssmates were praising Seulgi and her cuteness.


    Since the party for the adults was boring, he was relieved that his parents booked that huge parlor room for them. Foods and drinks flowed endlessly, and Shin Junho also kept checking on Seulgi to make sure that his baby sister wasn’t ufortable.


    "Seulgi, my friends said you’re cute," Song Gunwoo said, talking to his baby sister in a soft voice. "What do you say when someone says good things about you?"


    "Thank you!" Seulgi said cheerfully. "Thank you, Unnies, Oppas!"


    As expected, his ssmates melted because of his baby sister’s charm.


    "Aww, how polite!"


    While half of his ss was doting on Seulgi, the other half was...


    "Gunwoo-ya, this is the first time I’ve seen a cat so friendly!"


    "Sunny is so energetic, too!"


    "I thought cats and dogs don’t get along, but Bam and Sunny are like brothers!"


    Song Gunwoo smiled while his ssmates praised his beloved cat and puppy. "They do get along, so it’s easy for us to take care of Bam and Sunny— they’re both good kids."


    Yes, he saw Bam and Sunny as ’kids’ because they were his younger siblings, too.


    Anyway, while Song Gunwoo was hanging out with his ssmates, a new batch of guests entered the parlor room.


    It was Jeong Semin with Lee Bada, who was holding a professional camera.


    An Baekya and Yun Yuhyun were also with the two, so his ssmates became a little noisy.


    "Isn’t that the child actor? An Baekya, isn’t it?"


    "And that’s Yun Yuhyun, the child model."


    "Oh, Actor Yun Dujun and Actor Bae Wonyoung’s son?"


    "Yeah, that’s him."


    "He’s so handsome..."


    "An Baekya is so pretty..."


    "As expected, celebrities really have a different glow in them."


    Song Gunwoo smiled, happy that his young friends were being praised.


    "Gunwoo-ya, Bada Hyung wants to take a picture of you and your baby sister with your ssmates," Jeong Semin said, suddenly talking nicely when he was usually grumpy and rude. "Yuhyun and Baekya want to have a picture with you, too. Is now a good time?"


    "Of course," Song Gunwoo said, smiling while nodding. "Let’s take a picture together."


    <strong>***</strong>


    IT WAS almost morning when the party ended.


    And, yet, Garam woke up early.


    The first thing he did was grab his phone and check for the articles released about Seulgi.


    As expected, his precious daughter was trending online.


    <strong><i><SG Group’s Chairman Song and Singer Lim Garam adopt a daughter...!></i></strong>


    <strong><i><Not an illegitimate child: Song Seulgi, a toddler rescued from an abusive home, now makes her debut as a chaebol heiress...!></i></strong>


    <strong><i><Like fate, the new SG Princess turns out to be Singer Lim Garam’s cousin...!></i></strong>


    Yeah, Garam had to reveal that Seulgi was actually his cousin.


    <i>We want to stop the stupid rumor that Seulgi is Sihyuk Hyung’s illegitimate daughter.</i>


    That information came from the official statement that SG Group released.


    <i>Plus, we thought we should reveal it now before Seulgi’s other rtives bother uster.</i>


    "Honey, can’t sleep?" Song Sihyuk, who was hugging Garam from behind, asked in a sleepy voice. "Aren’t you tired?"


    "I just woke up," Garam said, still scrolling. "I’m just checking the articles talking about our Seulgi."


    "Tell me if you find anything unpleasant— I’ll take them down."


    "Will do."


    Song Sihyuk then kissed the top of Garam’s head.


    Then his nape.


    And then the side of his neck.


    By that time, Song Sihyuk’s hands were all over Garam’s body.


    Aigooya.


    Garam could also feel something hard poking against his hip.


    "Hyung, you’re already fully awake, aren’t you?"


    "In more ways than one, honey."


    Garam rolled his eyes at the Alpha’s teasing response while grinding against him. "I can tell."


    <i>Now I’m feeling horny, too.</i>


    Garam was about to put his phone down on the bedside table and pay attention to Song Sihyuk.


    But he suddenly got a call from Gong Hanseo.


    This time, it didn’t stop after a ring.


    <i>Hanseo Hyung won’t call at this hour if it isn’t important, especially when we were just together three hours ago.</i>


    Hence, Garam immediately picked up the call. "Yes, Hyung?"


    <i>"Garam-ah, I’m at the hospital right now..."</i>


    "Are you okay, Hyung?" Garam asked worriedly while getting up. "Are you sick? Did you get into an ident?"


    "No, but Daeho Hyung said he was feeling sick, so we brought him to the hospital..."


    Oh.


    ’Daeho Hyung’ would be Gong Hanseo’s university sunbae and...


    <i>... and this Daeho Hyung is pregnant with the child that Hanseo Hyung and Dr. Seong are nning to adopt.</i>


    "Is Daeho Hyung alright?"


    Gong Hanseo fell silent for a moment before speaking again.


    This time, his hyung sounded upset.


    <i>"Garam-ah, I know you’re tired from the party, but can youe here for a moment?"</i>


    "Of course, Hyung," Garam said, already standing up— causing Song Sihyuk to give him a look full of confusion. "I’ll be there in thirty minutes."


    <strong>***</strong>


    "SIHYUK Hyung, you didn’t have toe with me," Garam said worriedly. "You should have just gone back to sleep."


    "I told you, Garam-ah— I’m already wide awake. There’s no way I could have gone back to sleep, especially not when you’re not next to me. I’m fine, so don’t worry too much, honey," Song Sihyuk said, his eyes glued to the road because he was driving. And then the Alpha changed the subject. "So, what’s the situation now?"


    "Hanseo Hyung said that Daeho Hyung is fine now, but there seems to be an issue that he can’t tell me on the phone. That’s why he asked me toe to the hospital. I’m worried since Hanseo Hyung sounded a bit upset earlier."


    "Should I call Seong Kyungmin and ask?"


    "No, it’s okay. We’ll know once we get there anyway."


    And, a few momentster, Garam and Song Sihyuk arrived in the hospital.


    They went straight to the VIP Floor, where Kang Daeho was confined in one of the VIP Rooms.


    But much to his surprise...


    "Hyung, what are you doing here?" Garam asked, confused, when he found Gong Hanseo sitting on the sofa in the lobby of the VIP Floor— <i>alone</i>. "Where’s Dr. Seong?"


    Gong Hanseo obviously hesitated before answering. "Kyungmin Hyung is in the room..."


    Garam sat next to Gong Hanseo, his brows furrowed. "With Daeho Hyung?"


    "Yes."


    "Just the two of them?"


    "Yes," Gong Hanseo answered awkwardly. "Daeho Hyung said he feels better when he smells Kyungmin Hyung’s pheromones. But he said my scent is kind of making him feel sick, so I volunteered to leave the room."


    "Hyung, you’re a Beta," Garam said bluntly. For some reason, he was getting upset in ce of his Gong Hanseo hyung. "You don’t have a scent, so what is that hyung talking about?"


    "I didn’t argue since Daeho Hyung looked really sick, and I didn’t want it to affect the baby..."


    "And Seong Kyungmin just let you leave the room?" Song Sihyuk asked, scoffing as if he couldn’t believe Seong Kyungmin’s actions. "He’s a freaking doctor who specializes in Alpha-Omega pheromones. Did he hit his head and be dumb?"


    Aigooya.


    Garam thought Song Sihyuk was being too harsh with his words.


    However, he agreed with his husband.


    He was upset that Dr. Seong Kyungmin just let Gong Hanseo leave, just because Kang Daeho felt ufortable with Gong Hanseo’s non-existent scent.


    "No, it’s not like that. Kyungmin Hyung didn’t want me to leave, and he didn’t want to stay with Daeho Hyung alone either," Gong Hanseo exined, obviously defending Dr. Seong Kyungmin. "I’m the one who insisted that he stayed with Daeho Hyung. And Kyungmin Hyung knows how much I wanted the baby, so he did what I wanted, even though it was obvious that he didn’t want to. I’m the one being selfish here..." He then covered his face with his hands. "So, I don’t have the right to feel upset."


    Aigooya.


    Now Garam could see what the problem was, and he was already stressing out for his Hanseo Hyung...
