Chapter 45 – How Much Is Eunji’s Virgin? -3

“But..What can I do.. How did you make that much money in a week..”
“Haa..Mom, I’ll try. I’ll do it.. Somehow..”

Eun-ji took her crying mother to her room to rest, and then she and her younger brother rearranged their belongings.

After an hour or so, Mom came out of the room as if she had gathered her mind a little.
My eyes were swollen because I had been crying inside for a long time.

It was so sad.
Recently, as he lived comfortably on the money he received from his master, he forgot that his life was like this.

“Eunji.. What should I do..”

My mom sat down on the sofa, what should I do… What should I do… Just repeating the sound.
First of all, I felt like I had to calm down.
Because I didn’t know what to do with everyone blaming myself for this.

“Let’s go get some food, Mom.”
“What kind of food is it..”
“Aren’t you supposed to do what you eat well?”

Eunji dragged her extremely reluctant mother to a Chinese restaurant.

“Here, two jajangmyeon, one jjamppong, one sweet and sour pork, and one fried dumpling, please.”
“Yes! Thank you. Please wait!”
“Hey! Someone told me to eat it! With that money… Huh? No, even wild ginseng… Huh?”
“Mom!
“…”

Eunji couldn’t stand it and screamed loudly.
My head is still complicated, but I ended up taking out my anger on my mother who kept saying nonsense.
You can see the moisture gathering in the eyes of the mother who lowered her head.
I don’t know why I have to go through this because I don’t have money.

“Mom, I’m sorry…”
“No… It’s because I’m not good at it…”
“Don’t worry mom, I’ll take care of it.”
“What money do you have?”
“It’s okay, I can handle it myself, so don’t worry. Let’s eat, Seunghun-ah. Mom.”

We started eating the food that came out without saying anything.

‘Really…What should I do…’

I told my mother and brother,
It was to the point where I didn’t know where the jajangmyeon went.

Three people come to mind right now.
Hyejin unni, the bank VIP, and the owner.

‘Ah… No. Let’s do something before asking..’

Eunji started calculating the money she could save right away.
Even if he collected all of his savings, deposits, and 800,000 won worth of money in his wallet, it was less than 6 million won.

‘If I really sell wild ginseng…’

Even so, I did not think that wild ginseng was worth more than 10 million won.

“..G sister!”
“Yes?”

It seemed I was too lost in thought.
Quite a long time had passed, and the mother and younger sister had already finished eating and were looking at Eunji.

“Sorry..”

Jajangmyeon had already become rice cakes, and Mom’s face was full of worries.

“It’s okay, I can do it.”

Eun-ji said to her mother and younger sister, no, as if she had promised herself, and stuffed the lumpy jajangmyeon placed in front of her into her mouth.

* * *

That evening.
I couldn’t even remember what I had been doing all day.
After the lady left, the holidays that I would have enjoyed and time with my family were destroyed.

-Kikkik

“Eunji, are you sleeping..?”

Mom came into the room as if she was worried.
He must have been worried since he had been locked in his room since 8 p.M.

“Sit down..”
“Shall we lie next to my daughter after a long time?”

Her mother lay face to face with Eunji.
Looking closely, he seemed much older than he had been a few years ago.

Celebrities on TV are the same no matter how much time passes,
Time seemed to come faster for the poor.

“Don’t worry, daughter.”

Mom quietly hugged Eunji, who had her eyes closed.
I was even more moved by that languid embrace.

“Mom, it’s okay, I can do it. I have a lot of money.”
“…You’re not doing anything strange, are you?”
“No.. I don’t do that..”
“Daughter! Look at Mom, look at her eyes”

No matter how much they would be kicked out of the house, there would be no parents who would be pleased with the money their daughter sold herself.
The mother thought she needed to hear a definite answer, so she grabbed Eunji’s arm and shook it.

“..No.”
“Then, where did the girl who whined about not having money a few months ago get the money from, and where did she get it from and buy something like that? Do you get a present? Tell me properly, daughter. Otherwise, I’ll send you back to Seoul tomorrow morning.”
“Isn’t it?”
“Then why can’t you tell me! What are you doing!”

My mother’s voice gradually rose.
Did the Master anticipate this situation?

‘He told me to open it when I’m in trouble with the present.’

The small leather case Rosé gave me passed my head.

“Wait a minute, Mom.”

Eunji pushed aside her mother, who was staring at her with eyes almost full of conviction, and went through her bag.
A leather case given by the owner.
I haven’t opened it yet to see what’s inside.
I was sure I could solve this situation.

-Click.

I opened the leather case first, leaving my mother behind.

‘..Business card?’

Inside was a business card.

[-Product design advisory]
[-Lee Eun-ji.]

[-Link&N Co.]

‘Yes? Is that my name Design advice?’

And the business card had a small post-it attached to it.

[Contest winner, scouting, competition design copyright]

‘Ah..! That’s it!’

As soon as I saw the post-it, I knew the owner’s intention.

‘…The master is amazing as expected.’

Eunji held the business card to her chest and swallowed her tears.
[Eunji’s work is my responsibility.]
The master’s words suddenly came to mind and my heart broke.

‘Thank you.. Master.. Thank you.. Really..’

Bank VIP? Hyejin?
No, there was only one person who could solve this situation from the beginning.
It made me very sorry for thinking of someone else.

“You really… Aren’t you doing that? How can I raise you..!”
“Mom!!”

Eunji cut off her mother and turned around.
And he held out the excuse given by his master.

“Look at this.”
“What is this?”

Mom accepted the business card without raising her suspicious eyes.

“..Product design advice? Huh? Is this your business card?”
“Yeah, that’s right. I participated in the contest, but I won and was scouted.”
“…Yes?”
“Yeah, and I made quite a bit of money selling the winning designs there.”
“..Really?”
“Right? Otherwise, why would I have a business card!”

Eunji didn’t avoid her mother’s eyes and said it clearly.
Then, as if relieved, he got up and sat down on the bed.

“Isn’t that right? She’s my daughter. I’m sorry mom..”
“Then believe me… Please… How can I do something like 20 million won? So…”

Up until this point, lies had flowed out, but the last word could not be said while looking her mother in the eyes.

“Do not worry about it..”
“I’m sorry..Daughter..Mom couldn’t come..”
“Stop talking like that! Let’s get out of here… I need to think about it.”
“Okay.. My daughter and mother also have about 3 million won in savings.. Huh?”
“I got it, I got it…”

Eunji kicked her mother out of her room as if pushing her mother on the back and squeezed her cell phone.

“…As expected, there is only the owner.”

She had received a lot of things so far, but the only person who could save her shamelessly was her master.

“Haa.. First, let’s organize the money I can collect.”

But she wasn’t about to open her hand to help out.
And no matter what I did, I thought I would pay it back by doing part-time jobs or missions.

Eunji took out her pen and paper and began to write, sorting out as much money as she could.

– Deposit of 2 million won
– Installment savings of 3 million won
-700,000 won in money
– Wild ginseng unknown
-Mom 3 million won

Even if you add up all the wild ginseng, it is about 10 million won.
If the owner lends me 10 million won, I thought I could do the rest somehow.

Eunji held her cellphone in her hand for over half an hour and took a deep breath.

“That’s right, let’s call!”

Anyway, the only way to prepare for the deposit was to use a private loan or the owner.
No matter how much I thought about it, it was only getting late and disturbing the master’s sleep.

[Master..I have something to say. Can you call me?]

“I…Send!”

And not long after, her phone started vibrating.

-Giying. Jiying.

A call from the owner.

“I can.. I can do it, Eunji.. I can do it.. I can do it..”

Eunji calmed her heart with a trembling voice and answered the call from the owner.
Her knees were on her knees, and her cell phone was held in both her hands.

-What are you doing? Eunji Mr.

The owner’s soft voice came through the receiver.
The tears I had been holding back came to my eyes as I felt my heart settle down.
He felt as if his worries were washed away just by hearing a voice.

“..Master.. What should I do..”

-What happened?

Eunji told me everything that had happened so far in a crying voice.
From the sudden visit of an ajumma, to being slapped on the cheek, to the reason why money is needed.
And all of her family’s circumstances.

“So.. I need money.. If that doesn’t work, can you refund me at least wild ginseng..?”

– It can’t be. Isn’t that a gift I gave to Eunji?

“I know… But there’s no way… I don’t think they’ll pay the deposit right away even if they move out… I don’t want to see my family outside in the winter…”

-Hmm.. I see.. 10 million won.. It’s not an amount that I can easily answer.

“As expected, right? I’m sorry…”

It felt like the sky she believed in was collapsing.
I shouldn’t have this mindset, but I know I shouldn’t.
If it was the owner, he had no mind that he would be willing to listen.

Tears quietly ran down my cheeks at the nuance of refusal.

– Did I say no? It’s not an easy amount to hand over, but it’s not a huge burden either.

“Yeah..?”

-But… I need to get something too.

“Yes.. Yes, I’ll give you anything you want. Please help me, Master..”

– Anything you want?

“Yeah…Anything.”

-Then I’ll give up lending.

“Yeah? What…!”

Are you playing with people?
For the first time, I was angry with my master.
Even though he was begging for money because he had no money, what the owner was doing now seemed to be no different from the owner’s lady.

“It means doing it, it means making it! I… It’s so hard!

-Ah… I’m sorry. I didn’t mean that. You said you would do anything you wanted, right?

“Yes..”

-Then let’s buy Eunji’s virgin.
– How much is it? Eunji’s maiden.

“My… Buying a virgin…?”

-Yes, how much is it? Tell me
