My Daughter is a Music Genius

71

The dinner party continued.

There was only one reason why Seo Ye-na didn’t bring up the story in a hurry.

Jo Sung-hyun gave enough time to take care of Chae-yoon.

Chae-yoon, who was choking and swallowing saliva, shone brightly when Seong-hyeon Cho cut a piece of gyukatsu in half.

“Chae-yoon, ah~”

“Ah~”

At Jo Sung-hyun’s words, Chae-yoon immediately opened her mouth.

Jo Seong-hyeon, who put a piece of gyukatsu in the child’s mouth, confirmed that Chae-yoon was chewing it, and ate the gyukatsu himself.

Chaeyoon’s eyes were wide open as if the taste was strange.

“tasty?”

“yes!”

Chaeyoung nodded her head violently.

Jo Sung-hyun smiled and cut another gyukatsu, this time dipped in a little salt and served it to the child.

There was salt, soy sauce, and an unknown white sauce, but I thought it would be best to try the most basic salt first.

Chae-yoon took it and ate it and showed a happy face.

Seeing that scene, Yena Seo opened her mouth.

“Really, the feeling is reflected on your face.”

“So I think it’s better. I have to figure out a child in a complicated way, and there is nothing like that.”

Choi Hyeon-jun is a complicated person, so he has to sharpen his teeth to understand his inner side.

Chaeyoung is completely different.

Just by being together, I can relax my mind and enjoy purely together.

Jo Sung-hyun answered that way, but Seo Ye-na’s face was strange.

“Why?”

“Not Chae-yoon, but that one.”

“Me?”

“yes. It’s the expression on her face that shows how she feels. Chaeyoon feeds her and she smiles as if she is the happiest person in the world.”

“ah… .”

Jo Seong-hyeon opened his mouth slightly in embarrassment.

Of course, I thought he was talking about Chae-yoon, but apparently he wasn’t.

After Jo Seong-hyeon made Chae-yoon dipped in the sauce one by one and tasted it.

Chae-yoon’s choice was soy sauce.

There was very little wasabi.

I was a little scared because I thought it would be painful because of the wasabi, but Chaeyoon ate it very well.

The child eating yum yum, Jo Seong-hyeon cooked and cut gyukatsu one by one, seemed to like a new food called gyukatsu.

“He said he was a genius.”

Seo Ye-na flaunted her luck.

Jo Seong-hyeon looked at Chae-yoon and moved his gaze to meet Seo Ye-na’s eyes.

“yes. I have a talent for music.”

“It’s also surprising that you can honestly admit that you have a talent for music.”

“… ?”

Jo Sung-hyun looked at Seo Ye-na with an absurd look.

Could it be that he was talking about himself and not Chaeyoon?

I can’t.

“It’s not Chae-yoon… Me?”

“yes. That’s it. According to Team Leader Park, there is nothing wrong with listening to the music. It has been proven today.”

“I am definitely not a genius. It’s true that your ears are better than others… No genius at all.”

Cho Sung-hyun answered clearly.

He didn’t really think he was a genius.

Obviously, I know that I have more musical talent than others.

If it wasn’t for his perfect talent, his song wouldn’t have reached the top of the music charts in the first place in his past life.

Cho Sung-hyeon is a little proud of himself musically.

But he was already seeing what a true genius was.

He is not a genius.

“Anyway, okay. You were the one who chose Yumi’s album this time… He seems to have some talent in this area in many ways.”

After saying that, Seo Yena gently put a lump of gyukatsu in her mouth.

He chews omulomul gyukatsu, and it somehow resembles Chaeyoon.

Jo Seong-hyun took a sip of water and opened his mouth.

“It’s Yumi’s album, I was the manager at the time, so it was something I had to do. I left because I wanted to focus only on Chaeyoon.”

Seong-hyeon Cho once again drew a line.

Seo Ye-na continued to seduce Jo Seong-hyeon.

He secretly speaks out, trying to make Seong-hyeon his own.

It’s understandable given the situation.

From Seo Ye-na’s point of view, it’s the right time to need a capable manager.

No, I needed it a long time ago.

It was okay until team leader Woo Kyung-soo was dedicated to Seo Ye-na.

I got to the team leader position because I had that much ability, and because I was close with Seo Ye-na personally, it was relatively easy to control.

However, many problems arose when managers other than team leader Woo Kyung-soo began to join.

There are only three managers, Seo Ye-na sprinkled coffee.

The problem wasn’t that light.

That’s why Team Leader Woo Kyung-soo also attached Choi Hyun-joon, whom he had left as the last bastion.

‘But, Choi Hyun-jun hit him in the back.’

It was a situation in which Seo Ye-na could feel a sense of crisis.

If there is only one manager you can trust here, you can’t ask for anything more.

The target is Jo Sung-hyun.

The problem is that Jo Sung-hyun has no intention of returning yet.

“500.”

“… ? If you help me with this dish, I’ll give you just 500.”

Jo Sung-hyun paused at the sudden burst of money that was much higher than his salary.

His expression hardened slightly.

Are you trying to buy people with money?

In a capitalist society, that’s true, but… It wasn’t something I liked very much.

It is true that Jo Sung-hyun needs living expenses, and it is also true that 500 is a huge amount of money for one help.

However… It will be at least a year or two before Jo Seong-hyeon runs out of living expenses and needs money.

Making money now would be about extending that period a little bit.

I mean it’s not that urgent.

Cho Sung-hyun tried to refuse.

It’s a lot of money, but it’s not the money you need right now.

Right now, I just wanted to spend time for the future of Chaeyoon and the future of the child.

“Thanks for the suggestion… .”

She opened her mouth to refuse, but Seo Ye-na put down her chopsticks and continued speaking.

“As a daughter fool, and as a capable manager. Chae-yoon, take a look.”

“… Yes.”

“A child who will debut in the entertainment industry. A child who will be successful. You already know? Just don’t pretend you don’t know. honestly.”

“… … .”

Cho Sung-hyun couldn’t answer anything.

Because Seo Ye-na was right.

Already, he knows.

“What are you going to do then? As a father and as a manager, I will work hard to wrap up Chaeyoon, and I will try my best. But, there are limits.”

you all know you.

Seo Ye-na was looking at Seong-hyeon with such eyes.

One by one, it’s all right.

It is not for nothing that Seo Ye-na has risen to her current position in the entertainment industry.

She was emotional when she should be emotional and cold when she should be cool.

In other words, she knew exactly what her ‘role’ was.

Now her role.

It was to show a seasoned figure as a senior in the entertainment industry.

“I’ll do Chae-yoon unnie. Wouldn’t that be a bad suggestion from your point of view? To help me once, and to make Chaeyun a safer life in the entertainment industry.”

Seo Ye-na looked at Jo Sung-hyun as if her words were not right.

Worried about her name being mentioned over and over again, Chae-yoon couldn’t even eat the whole gyukatsu and was glancing at Seo Ye-na and Seong-hyeon Jo.

After Jo Seong-hyun puts the gyukatsu stamped on the child’s fork into Chae-yoon’s mouth.

I opened my mouth.

“Exactly what part should I be in charge of? It’s a bit unreasonable for me to move as Seo Ye-na’s manager.”

Jo Sung-hyun decided to accept Seo Ye-na’s proposal.

For Chaeyoung.

and… .

‘I think it will be fun.’

Perhaps, for Jo Sung-hyun himself.

* * *

Friday passed like that.

Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon had a busy time.

They did not go out even though it was a weekend for a long time and had to spend time at home.

That was reason enough.

Because Chaeyoon’s contest preliminaries were Thursday, and they hadn’t even decided on a song yet.

In some ways, it was Jo Sung-hyun’s fault that I decided to participate a little hastily, but I put the application in a week ago and couldn’t seriously decide what kind of song to do with Chae-yoon.

As Chaeyoon, it was natural that she had no idea what song she was going to compete with.

Jo Sung-hyun should have thought about it and took care of it, but he didn’t.

Now that I have only 5 days left, I was worried whether I would be able to prepare well.

“Uh… .”

Seong-hyeon Cho thought hard.

What song would you like?

It was my first time doing something like this, so I had no choice but to worry.

In the end, Seong-Hyeon Cho.

After much deliberation, I picked up my smartphone.

If you don’t know, it’s right to ask for help.

– Yes, Seong-hyeon. What are you doing?

Young-jun’s father, Yoo Jae-gyun, quickly answered the phone.

Young-jun’s smiling voice can be heard over the phone.

Chae-yoon looked at Seong-hyeon with twinkling eyes.

“that… There are qualifiers for this contest.”

– Oh, yes. You don’t need to worry too much about it. It wasn’t originally there, but it was created because we wanted to adjust the format even a little bit.

“okay… ?”

-yes. Apparently, since JK was originally only into entertainment, he was trying to expand his image to classical music. I’ve added qualifiers to get the format right, so I’m not going to look too hard there.

Since Jo Seong-hyeon could not understand the internal situation, he just nodded without answering while listening to Yoo Jae-gyun.

-I think you can think of it as a stage where the judges and the participants just get to know each other roughly.

“Then you don’t have to worry too much, right?”

-Yes. Have you decided on a song?

“Not yet.”

-ah… ?

There, Yoo Jae-gyun also made a strange sound, perhaps a little embarrassed.

Jo Sung-hyun smiled awkwardly and opened his mouth.

“I don’t know what song to do… I was just trying to get some recommendations.”

-then… How about a light Mozart piano sonata?

“A piano sonata?”

-Yes, the piano sonata No. 16 is not difficult, so… As long as you don’t make some really stupid mistakes in the qualifiers, you won’t be dropped.

“ah. thank you Piano Sonata No. 16. I want to listen to it with Chaeyoon.”

Jo Sung-hyun finished the call with Yoo Jae-gyun and looked at Chae-yoon.

The child was sitting in front of the piano with a look of anticipation.

Jo Seong-hyun sat on the piano chair with the child and played the piano sonata No. 16 by operating the smartphone.

And that day.

The song that Chaeyoon will perform in the contest preliminaries has been decided.
