No Free Stay

“Didn’t I tell you to leave yesterday?”

“Why are you still here?”

The fact that these Alpha bastards hadn’t given up made his tone naturally sharper.

As Yoo Iseo leaned in close, trying to whisper with that annoyingly perfect face, Chanyeong pushed him away with his palm.

Hey. Back off.

That trick won’t work on me.

Even with his cheek squished awkwardly under that push, Iseo kept talking.

“We’ve decided that we can’t leave you behind, Seong Chanyeong-ssi.”

“So we’d like to ask for permission to stay here.”

“Ha.”

Unbelievable.

Calling it “asking permission” when they clearly intended to ignore his answer.

“You think I’ll allow that?”

“We’ll wait together until you do.”

Don’t even start with the “this is your house” nonsense, damn it.

“Aren’t you all busy?”

“You’re just abandoning your work like this?”

“We’ve already made arrangements so everything runs smoothly in our absence.”

“So there won’t be any problems.”

“…….”

So the answer was already decided, and he just had to accept it?

What a bunch of bandits.

‘And I was planning to kick out Seo Eunsu too…’

If this kept up, he’d end up living under one roof with all the original characters.

Five Alphas… and one hidden recessive Omega.

Not ideal.

He glanced at Seo Eunsu.

Eunsu was looking at him with a faint smile.

Honestly, Chanyeong had been worried.

Wouldn’t the main character feel uncomfortable with all the attention shifting to him?

“In that case… why not keep them and take revenge?”

“…What?”

Apparently not.

That pure, flower-like face delivering something so sinister felt completely mismatched.

“What did you just say?”

Even the other Alphas were stunned.

But Chanyeong just shrugged.

“I don’t really feel like getting revenge….”

He wasn’t the real Seong Chanyeong, after all.

There was no reason for revenge.

Sure, he’d been pissed yesterday—but that was because they tracked him down for stupid reasons.

‘Well… also because I’m living in his body.’

Still, pointless emotional exhaustion wasn’t worth it.

“My mental stamina isn’t built for this.”

“You’re quite generous.”

“That’s why you took me in as a part-timer, right?”

“No, not really.”

“I’m not a good person.”

“You know that. I used to be selfish and shameless.”

Not him—but still.

Keeping these Alphas around would just bring trouble.

‘Where there are main characters, chaos follows. Like clockwork.’

And the biggest issue—

If Seo Eunsu stayed, their attention would eventually go back to him.

And if one of them ended up dating him…

‘I do NOT want to witness that in 3D!’

So yeah—revenge wasn’t appealing.

“That’s impressive.”

Eunsu looked genuinely surprised.

Did he think Chanyeong would jump at the chance?

No way.

If anything, he wanted to throw them across the ocean.

“Just stay away from me.”

“The more I see you, the more I think you’re a good person.”

“I’m really not.”

“People who say that usually are.”

“No, I’m serious.”

Eunsu just smiled softly.

‘That’s not what I meant…’

His head started hurting again.

Even more than him, these characters were derailing the original plot.

And now both sides were misunderstanding him.

Exhausting.

“Did you forget I’m here?”

“Talking between yourselves like that… I might get jealous.”

“…Ah. Right.”

Iseo cut in again.

He had almost forgotten about him.

Shame.

“So you’re all seriously planning to stay here?”

“Yes.”

“You didn’t consider how uncomfortable the homeowner might be?”

“You’re someone who generously allowed Seo Eunsu to stay in the annex.”

“So this shouldn’t be difficult for you either.”

‘Ah, hell no.’

His insides boiled over.

They really planned to just plant themselves here.

Yesterday, he managed to push them out with help—

But now even Eunsu was siding with them.

‘…Wait.’

Use them?

A flash of inspiration struck.

‘This might actually work.’

If they refused to leave—

He’d make them leave on their own.

His expression changed completely as he lifted his chin.

“You’re not planning to stay here for free, right?”

“Of course not.”

“If it’s money, we can pay any amount—”

“I’m not taking money.”

“…What?”

“I already have plenty.”

Seong Chanyeong’s accounts were practically overflowing.

And thanks to Chairman Seong Gongun, more kept coming.

Pocket money, apparently.

More like terrifying wealth.

He’d already stopped checking his balance—too shocking.

So no, money didn’t tempt him.

“Then what do you want?”

“Jewelry? Cars? Property?”

“I said I don’t need that.”

“That’s the easiest for us to give.”

“That’s exactly why I don’t want it.”

Their expressions shifted.

“What, do you want our bodies or something?”

At Joo Taegang’s words, Chae Yunchan yelped and crossed his arms over himself dramatically.

Seriously?

‘As if I’d want that.’

“Are you insane?”

“Absolutely not.”

“If you strip and lie on a bed, I’ll throw you out naked.”

Yunchan relaxed in relief.

Dojun smacked him lightly.

“Then what do you want?”

“Labor.”

“…What?”

“I’ll take labor.”

“This is a rural area—young manpower is more valuable than gold.”

“You’ll help with my farm work.”

Operation: Make Them Suffer.

He’d play the wicked stepmother if needed.

Of course, they weren’t kind like Kongjwi, and he had no intention of keeping them forever.

If they ran away, good riddance.

“So?”

“Still want to stay?”
