Tang Bo is literally that very dead wife of the main character from the movies, and in my opinion, it would be funny if everyone around Cheong Myeong thought the same way. Well, because who else could be the person whom the Mad Dog recalls with a soft smile on his face? Only a husband. Or a wife.
Tang Soso flinched from an intense gaze, and after looking at its source, she saw none other than her Sahyun, drunk as a lord. Who was looking at her with unfocused eyes.
"Cheong Myeong?"– asked Baek Cheon, sitting closest to him. –"Did something happen?" Everyone sitting at the table and drinking alcohol, the Five Swords along with the monk, exchanged glances.
"Mm. Tang Bo would have liked it here..."
"Ah, it hit him again."
"Maybe he should quit drinking."
Cheong Myeong looked irritably at the whispering chicks.
"What's wrong with you all again?"
They all exchanged glances again.
"You really don't understand?"
Cheong Myeong looked at them as if they were a bit dim.
"You mention him constantly when you get drunk!" Jo Geol cried out.
"When was that?!"
"Do you want us to actually count? Even at the Shaolin tournament, you constantly lamented that if he were here, he would have relieved your boredom!"
"Especially when you visit the Tang Clan. All one ever hears from you is: 'Ah, but Tang Bo'!" Tang Soso nodded.
"Every time it's bad." added Sago.
Cheong Myeong only scratched his cheek, slightly embarrassed. Yes, perhaps there had been a few... dozens of times... Or hundreds...
Sighing, Cheong Myeong raised his gaze to the sky.
"So we've understood that you were married, just tell us which of you is the wife and which is the husband."
"WHAT?! We were best friends!. Besides, he's already dead!"
...
For a moment, an oppressive silence hung in response to such a serious answer.
"A dead wife?"
"..."
"...Husband?"
"Sago. Why you, of all people.."
Cheong Myeong pressed his head against his knees, and his ears turned red, clearly not from the alcohol.
