Chapter 56 – Reconstructed Love Line
Perhaps because it wasn’t lunchtime yet, no one went to the canteen.
As soon as I turned the corner and came to the deserted backyard of the academy, Suyeon Choi stretched out her arms and wrapped them around my neck, pressing my body against her.
It was an expression of affection without hesitation, but contrary to her actions, her expression was quite pouty.
“Seon~Bae~! It’s really too much! I heard you had a prior appointment over the weekend, so I was wondering something, but you and Yuri sunbaenim just went out?! I’m completely out of it!”
“I think it would have been even weirder if you had been there.”
“… How far did it go?”
“To the end?”
“…”
Su-yeon Choi put her mouth out and looked at me, then lifted her tiptoes while hugging my neck.
“…♥”
And she kissed her, licking her tongue.
Sooyeon Choi and I have already kissed so many times that I can’t even count, so there was no hesitation in kissing each other.
Choi Soo-yeon moved her hands that were wrapped around my neck to my cheeks and held them tightly, mixing her tongue even more violently.
As if trying to erase any traces of her from my lips, where I must have kissed Lee Yu-ri.
When our lips parted, Sooyeon Choi looked at me with a slightly flushed expression and put a little more pressure on her hands holding her cheeks.
“I said directly that women are greedy, but I didn’t know that he could act so needlessly. It’s annoying.”
“At least I didn’t lie. Rather than you having to hide it and end up with both sides of the aisle, wouldn’t it be better for me to be completely open about it?”
“Wow, shameless…”
Sooyeon Choi let out her pure exclamation and looked up at me, hugging my waist and pressing her body even closer.
“But why don’t I hate my senior even though I’m hearing these ridiculous and shameless things right in front of my eyes?”
“Um, well… Because she’s my girl?”
Choi Soo-yeon’s eyes trembled slightly.
But she soon came to her senses and still pouted her mouth.
“Did you say that to Senior Yuri too?”
“Well, it’s not exactly the same.”
“It was bad.”
Sooyeon Choi pinched my cheek without fear.
If she were the original Han Seong-jin, it would have been an unthinkable act, but Choi Soo-yeon accepted the fact that I had changed better than anyone else, and her actions were quite bold.
“Senior Yuri, do you know that you and I have this kind of relationship?”
“You don’t know yet. I told you that I’m greedy for women, so you know.”
“If you don’t know ‘yet’, does that mean you will tell me someday?”
“That’s right. I have no intention of lying and hiding.”
“Then, as a senior woman, I have no choice but to help her senior?”
“How?”
“Well, you’ll just have to wait and see.”
Choi Su-yeon grinned like a devil.
The result of ‘you’ll know it when you see it’ was revealed right away during lunchtime.
#####
Lunch time.
Choi Soo-yeon, as she always did these days, of course she came up to the third grade cafeteria and sat down with us.
Lee Yu-ri and Jeong Eun-ji, who had been fierce at first and asked why they were coming, seemed to have gotten used to it now and didn’t say much about it.
At first glance, it seemed like a peaceful lunchtime, but the peace was broken right after the meal was finished.
When we all returned to our seats in the restaurant after setting up our plates and resting while waiting for our stomachs to go down, Suyeon Choi suddenly called me.
“Huh? Senior Seongjin? Look at me for a moment.”
“Why?”
“Here, there’s something on your lips.”
Sooyeon Choi pointed her finger at the corner of her mouth.
I don’t really feel like there’s anything on it…
At her gesture, I unconsciously put my hand to her mouth, but I couldn’t touch anything.
At the same time, Soo-yeon Choi raised her body slightly and bent down as she approached me.
“I can’t help it. I’ll clean it for you.”
And she kissed me proudly on the corner of my mouth.
“!!!”
This behavior was quite unexpected even for me, so I froze in shock.
And what surprised me even more than I was…
“You, you, you… What are you doing now-“
“Mi, crazy-“
Lee Yu-ri, who became my girlfriend, and Jeong Eun-ji, who didn’t like both me and Choi Su-yeon.
Naturally, Lee Yu-ri’s reaction was much more violent.
“Hey!!! What are you doing now!?”
Lee Yu-ri, whose face turned red and glared at Choi Soo-yeon, was probably so surprised that she jumped up from her seat, not caring that all the other kids were looking at her.
Choi Su-yeon smiled at her Yu-ri Lee with a calm expression.
“Did you wipe that thing off your mouth?”
“Don’t be ridiculous! Seongjin didn’t have anything on her mouth! And even if she did, she wouldn’t have wiped it off with a tissue or her hand like that…”
“Really? I think Senior Seongjin would like this kind of thing more. Senior Seongjin is greedy for women.”
“So! Seongjin’s girlfriend is me!”
Seeing her friend proudly declaring herself to be her, Eunji Jeong looked up at the ceiling with a headache and closed her eyes tightly.
Meanwhile, Choi Soo-yeon did not blink at Yu-ri Lee’s declaration that she was his girlfriend.
“Really? Congratulations. But I don’t care if Seongjin has a girlfriend or not. As long as she can be with him.”
“This is…!”
“After all, didn’t you know and decided to meet Seongjin? Are you greedy for women? She’s a Seongjin senior, so it wouldn’t be strange if she had a few women… ♥”
As Suyeon Choi said that, she quietly crossed her arms and pressed her chest to me.
When Yu-ri Lee saw that, a double wick lit up in her eyes.
In fact, when a situation like this occurred, I was the one who would be criticized first, but now, because of Choi Soo-yeon’s actions, all of Lee Yu-ri’s aggro was directed towards her.
Is this what helping meant?
Being able to naturally get involved in the romantic relationship while also allowing me to avoid being criticized by Yu-ri Lee?
‘If you just look at him, he’s a bit scary.’
Meanwhile, Yuri Lee, who thought she was completely victorious, could be seen seething in her eyes at her unexpected attack.
She opened her eyes and screamed at Choi Su-yeon.
“Who are you to come between me and Seongjin!? Me and Seongjin are on the weekend-“
Yuri Lee, who was screaming, suddenly realized that what was to come was definitely not something worth shouting in front of others, so her face turned red, and she suddenly lowered her voice.
So that only the three of us sitting at this table, Choi Su-yeon, and Jeong Eun-ji, can hear.
“We’re the last ones to go on the weekend. There’s no room for you. Nowhere.”
“What?!”
The one who was more surprised by those words was Jeong Eun-ji.
The quiet, studious boy seemed quite shocked by her friend’s declaration that they had had sex over the weekend.
Meanwhile, Choi Su-yeon, for the first time, had a stiff expression on her face and was silent.
Although she had already heard the story from me, she seemed displeased when she was attacked with asymmetrical power from the woman in question.
“… So? Well, it’s not like we’re in an era where just having sex once leads to marriage.”
“What?”
“It doesn’t matter whether your senior is your girlfriend or not, and whether she had sex or not. You, senior, just play nice and friendly with senior Seongjin. I’ll hang out with senior Seongjin the same way.”
“You… Even though I just said that Sungjin is your girlfriend-“
“If you don’t think so, you can break up with me. I’ll date senior Seongjin. Oh, of course, unlike senior Yuri, I have a big heart, so I won’t say anything even if senior Yuri sticks around while I’m dating senior Seongjin. How about that?”
Lee Yu-ri’s face turned red, and her whole body trembled, to the point where she was worried that she might explode.
And then she finally made up her mind and crossed her arms around me and screamed.
“Noisy! Seongjin’s girlfriend is me, no matter what anyone says! Not like you!”
“Then it’s decided. Yuri will be Seongjin’s girlfriend. She’ll just stick around like she is now. You’re not complaining, right? If you’re not, just break up.”
“You… What are you…”
Even though she became my official girlfriend, she was caught up in Choi Soo-yeon, who was clingy to her, and perhaps because she felt like she was losing the decision, Lee Yu-ri’s body trembled with anger and her eyes welled up with tears.
Since I wasn’t in the mood to intervene, I stayed quietly in the middle of her and realized that it was time to step in, so I wiped away the tears that had started to form at the corners of Yuri’s eyes.
“Yuri, don’t cry. No matter what anyone says, you are my girlfriend. Come on, snap.”
“Sigh… Sigh…”
If you think about it, I was an asshole who just sat back and watched while the two were fighting, but Choi Su-yeon’s aggro was so severe that Lee Yu-ri couldn’t even think about it and just silently accepted my consolation.
No, on the contrary, when I saw her wrapping her arms around me more tightly while I was wiping away her tears, it seemed like she thought it was proof that she had won by decision.
Meanwhile, Sooyeon Choi looked at me for a moment, then took out her cell phone and typed something.
When I checked my cell phone after lunch, there was this text message.
[Choi Su-yeon]: I was afraid of being criticized by my senior, so I just held back. Instead, I will go to the convenience store later and get everything replenished.
#####
Even after her situation calmed down and Choi Soo-yeon returned to her second-grade classroom for her afternoon class, Yu-ri Lee felt like her stomach was boiling.
‘You bitch… Seongjin’s girlfriend is me, me! I’ve already done it with Sungjin twice! No matter how much you tease…’
Her Han Seong-jin told her several times that he would not neglect her and that he truly liked her.
Now, Yu-ri Lee did not doubt those words, and Seong-jin Han also took his side at the scene of the fight.
Because of that one action, the fact that Han Seong-jin stayed silent while the fight grew was forgotten in Lee Yu-ri’s mind.
She didn’t like Choi Soo-yeon sticking around, but she said that Han Seong-jin had already revealed that he was greedy for women, and even then, she put herself first, so her way of thinking was gradually adapting to the strange situation.
And then two more days passed, and it was Wednesday.
It is now the day when the tag for the April paper test comes out.
