The Padlock of Destiny
Secretes

In the car, Hansen looks at Kyungsoo like a victim to his hero. Now he recognizes her as the eldest brother. Her feelings became light when the burden was handed to her brother. He was finally able to tell the secret to his family after so many years.

“The oldest brother... do you want to teach me martial arts?”

Kyuhyun's face twitched when he heard Hansen calling him the eldest brother in a respectful manner, he felt that his sister was addicted to the film after being in contact with the thugs.

“What did you learn it for? To beat up people's children?”

“Of course not! It's to defend yourself and protect your mother. You work downtown and rarely come back home. It was just me and my mom at home. What if those thugs come back?”

“They will not come back.. but I am also worried about mom.” Hanwu thought of taking her mother to move downtown with her.

"We'd better not say it to Mom."

"Sister is right, you'll only worry if you find out after what happened to you."

"But that won't guarantee he's safe at home. Those gangsters are gonna be looking for trouble."

Kyuhyun intended to threaten the group with the evidence Hansen had. They would not have come to Hansen and his mother if he had himself advanced as their target. He did not mind getting his hands dirty if they insisted on bothering him. Moreover, this was not the first time he faced an amateur group like this.

“Mom won't want to move into your apartment. If you're worried, you and your family can stay in my apartment. Don't you think I'm family? I don't mind changing my margin. But mom won't agree.”

Hanwu agrees with Kyungsoo's remarks. His mother would not move in with them.

“If I said I wanted to change schools?” Hansen thought hard.

“Maybe mom would consider it if you said that you were bullied and beaten by your schoolmate. Then I said if I was sick and nobody took care of me. Moreover, my apartment is still wide enough for you to live in.” Kyuhyun said his idea.

Hanwu and Hansen simply fell silent and agreed. This cunning way could probably make their mother nod her head even asking to come to the center of the city.

“Then Hansen can turn in the dojo. You can choose what you like, whether it is taekwondo, aikido, judo, taichi, taijutsu, jejutsu, or pencak silat.”

They arrived at the house at eleven o'clock more, the lights inside were still brightly lit. Hanwu looked at her mother who was standing up to greet them with a worried face.

“Hansen! What happened to your face!” Shouted mom hysterically. The handsome face of his son was now filled with wounds and even bleeding in some places.

Hansen grimaced in pain as his mother hugged him. Compared to the wound on his face, the pain in his stomach was dozens of times more pronounced. He knew even Kyungsoo didn't use all his strength, but still it was very painful.

“There are some street kids who gang up on me.” Hansen answered his mother to sit on the living room sofa.

“Those bad boys! Mother would beat them and scold the parents who raised her. How dare they hurt my son!” Hanwu's mother hit the table angrily.

Kyuhyun looked at Hansen sharply. He doesn't like the answer. Maybe Hansen was used to lying and putting innocent faces in front of his mother and brother. But that face was not good for him. With the personality of the mother, he would definitely find out and meet them personally.

“No mother! I was the first to hit them for bothering me. That's why we entered the police station. Key even got into the hospital for helping me!” Hansen immediately corrected his answer when he saw Kyungsoo's dislike.

“You are now learning to be a thug huh?! Is your brain and mouth useless enough to use violence like this?!” Mother beat him on the shoulder and made Hansen cry out for mercy.

“Sick? You deserve it!” Even Hanwu who used to defend him now scolded him.

“Actually why did he get battered like that?”

“He hit someone from their gang, so the other members did not accept and beat him back. Even his friend got involved while trying to save him. The boy, named Key, is now lying in the ER with a stab wound, while the rest of the gang broke a bone after being pushed by Hansen.”

“Yes God! Is Key okay?”

“I heard he's been handled well and had to stay for a few days in the hospital.”

“Then I have to go see him and thank him. I also have to apologize to his parents.”

Kyuhyun nodded with a smile and let mother rest. He also told his mother about Hansen's desire to study martial arts. He promised to direct his newly acquired brother well.

Kyuhyun entered Hanwu's room after taking his mother to rest. He sat on Hanwu's bed and stared at the room. The room has a bunk bed, the mother said that this used to be Hanwu and Hansen's room when he was a child. After Junior High Hansen liked the location of the room at the back end, so Hanwu relented and occupied this room.

“You can choose above or below.” Hanwu enter bring a blanket and pillow for Kyungsoo.

“I chose above, it feels unsafe to sleep under you.” Kyuhyun immediately went upstairs and put down his blanket and pillow.

“Thanks...” Say Hanwu sincerely.

“For what? I'm the one who should thank you for getting a new home and family. Although the youngest is a bit troublesome”

“You have helped us a lot. Hansen will definitely lose his way if you don't hit him today.”

“You have a problem with my method?”

“No, you're right that I spoiled her too much and ruined her.”

“He's not bad, his intentions are good enough to help his family. He is just not mature enough so inexperience.”

“Yes, thank you for educating her patiently.”

“Enough! I don't want to hear your thanks anymore. Instead, you should work hard to help me in the future. But tomorrow morning you're antat Hansen and I visit his friend. I'll go back to my own company, you can come after lunch.”

“I'll be back with you!”

“Aren't you aware? I'm afraid the kid will talk nonsense in front of mom who will make her worry.”

“I understand.”

“Then go to sleep! Good night!”

“Goodnight.”

Hanwu turned off the main light and dimmed the side lights before lying on the bed down. He looked at the wooden board with a smile. Meeting Kyungsoo is a blessing for their family. Even if he had to repay her with life, he would not mind.
