Chapter 125 – Mesgaki and the Three Waves
I played the game almost until dawn to beat the jumping queen, and the next day I suffered a lot from fatigue and lack of sleep.
At least I was able to recover quickly thanks to Nero’s rice and the supply of side dishes that Jaehee gave me, but as expected, I felt like my life pattern was ruined as I was broadcasting that night.
“Huh… I think I will die…”
[Park Jae-yeon: I think the company will end quickly today. Shall we have a meal together?]
“Today?”
I thought I got a message on my cell phone, so I checked and saw that it was from a very familiar person.
Today, the company said it was over quickly and asked me to eat.
If it’s not for me, but for my older sister to buy it, I want to go there unconditionally.
It’s not where I live, but they always buy me expensive or delicious food, so I tend to follow them when they tell me to go.
‘Maybe I’m the first streamer to get food from the manager?’
It’s natural for most streamers to buy food for the manager, but I did the opposite and ate it.
It was because I didn’t make enough money in the beginning, and Jaeyeon noona made good money while working for a large company.
Whoops, whoops…
“What is it, another message coming?”
Judging by the alarm ringing on my phone, I don’t think it’s Jae-yeon’s sister, but who is it?
[Yang Eun-je: Sacho! Shall we eat meat today? I made a lot of money with coins today!!!]
[Shin Jae-joon: Not meat, but money?]
[Yang Eun-jae: Do you want to go back?]
I wonder what day it is today, and Eunje and Jaeyeon asked me to eat together. No matter who I followed, I was in a situation where I would benefit unconditionally.
“Hmm… Who should I follow? Jae-yeon noona, who was taken care of at home last time? Or Eun-je, who had a hard time going to the confederation?”
I wanted to have a meal with them because they both suffered a little because of me.
Originally, I have to buy it to repay the favor, but in this world, people say that buying food for a man is a bit sensible.
Of course, I’m thinking of doing the Dutch pay with a concept, but it’s true that in the end the woman has to pay half.
Jaeyeon or Eunje? Manager or editor?
Are you a calm viewer or a likable gonic who draws aggro?
A number of thoughts tormented me.
“Wait for a sec… Do I really have to meet only one person?”
“Aww?”
Looking back, there was no reason to eat one-on-one.
We both know each other’s faces anyway, so we can get together, have a meal together, and go back to each other’s homes.
It was close to a happy ending where there was no trashy answer, but no one was sad.
[Shin Jae-joon: Then, to a rib restaurant near my house today.]
I sent this message to two women at the same time.
[Park Jae-yeon: Yes, I think it will be around 7 o’clock when I finish work, so I’ll leave around then.]
[Yang Eun-je: If you tell me when to eat, I’ll go right away.]
“It’s probably true that everyone likes ribs.”
They both answered right away when he sent me the address to eat galbi.
Jae-yeon noona leaves work around 7 o’clock, so she told Eun-je to come around 7 o’clock too.
Then I thought I’d just have to wait until 7:00 PM.
It felt like my daily life was gradually disappearing, probably because I worked so hard on broadcasting these days.
“Nero~ Shall we go out and get some wind?”
“Oooh!”
Nero also wanted to go outside. As soon as I said that, he pointed at the doorknob in front of the front door and explained to go out.
I took the cat in my arms and slowly went outside. As soon as I came out, I hugged Nero tightly in my arms while receiving the sunlight that was shining brightly on me.
It was autumn, and it was starting to get chilly outside with a little wind blowing. Even though she was wearing thin clothes, she could feel Nero’s warmth warming her chest.
“Jaejun, did you come out to get some fresh air too?”
“Ahaha…”
When I came out, Jaehee, who had been sucking candy, was smiling at me.
Nero nodded her hand and greeted Jaehee, whom she hadn’t seen in a while, as if she was glad to see her.
“Hello Nero.”
“Aww.”
Although there was an awkward atmosphere, she sat next to Jaehee’s bench with Nero in her arms.
“Nero, come down for a minute.”
“Ohhh…”
I bent down a little to make it easier to come down, but I tried not to come down, pulling my clothes with my claws.
He said he didn’t want to come down, but I couldn’t say anything, so I held him in my arms and looked at the sky.
Looking at the clouds flying in the blue sky, I looked at Jaehee slightly while healing.
Jaehee, who was sitting next to me casually, looked at the same sky as me while eating candy without saying anything.
“I wish I could play the guitar on a day like this.”
“Etc? Are you good at playing musical instruments?”
“I learned to play the guitar since I was a child… Would you like to hear it too?”
I took out the guitar from the black bag hanging next to the bench and checked it with my hand.
She plucked her thick and thin strings with her fingers to match the notes, and as if she didn’t need a pick, she started plucking her strings with her fingers.
The guitar’s characteristic clear and resonant sound began to emerge. Nero and I watched Jaehee play the guitar and admired it quietly.
I don’t know what kind of song it is, but the calm and refreshing sound like the autumn sky seemed to clean my ears.
He shook his head slightly to the side to the rhythm of the guitar.
“End with this… “
“Oh, he plays the guitar well… “
“Ungnyang.”
As soon as the guitar play was over, Nero and I clapped our hands together. I thought I was just an unemployed person doing nothing outside, but in fact, I was a competent unemployed, right?
I was amazed at her unexpected talent and praised her, so I scratched her jawline with my finger while blushing slightly.
“Well, this is normal… “
“Are you really good at it? Have you ever done street performances or anything like that?”
“Busking? Well, I’ve done that kind of thing a few times.”
“Something similar?”
Looking at the guitar with a lonely smile, she looked somewhat depressed. Did you have any bad memories about busking in the past?
Jaehee, who gave off a strange atmosphere, was comforted by patting her back.
“I loved hearing it!”
“Okay?”
“Huh.”
He complimented me saying that I liked the sound and patted him, so I smiled and put the guitar in the case.
Jaehee, who was stretching her waist while raising her arms up, stood up and looked at me.
“I wish you too. Would you like to go get some food later?”
“Rice…?”
“I’ll live, so can’t I?”
Rather than saying no, why are there so many women who want to eat with me today? Should I call this popular or a lot of blessings related to food?
This time, while thinking about what to say, I thought of Jaehee, who had a lonely expression earlier, and it was difficult to answer right away.
‘Hmm… There are two women besides me anyway, so wouldn’t it be a problem if one was added here?’
“That… I was going to eat with someone else after a while… Do you want to go with me?”
“Can I go too?”
Without saying a word, I moved my head up and down to allow him to go with me.
Well, I didn’t say anything to the others, but if you go and ask if it’s not possible, they’ll accept it.
I never could have imagined what would happen in the future.

“Now, check the clothes, check the gas, check the electricity in the house, check the Nero feed! Ready to go out!”
Before going out, I finished my preparations one last time, checking to see if I had forgotten anything else.
While I was gone, Nero did not starve, so I put the food in the rice container in advance, and I turned off the gas burner valve to prevent the gas from leaking.
If this house is gone, you might give up on living beyond the hardships of life.
When I came out, Jaehee, wearing a leather jacket, was leaning against the wall, looking at her cell phone.
“Are you out now? Kkeuheumm… How do you like this outfit?”
“Clothes?”
First of all, the most noticeable thing was the jeans that fit snugly to the leather jacket.
Overall, her legs and waist were in good shape, and her eyes were sharp, so she looked like a girl who was playing well.
Her impression was not dirty, but she was a sharp beauty.
“Gangster?”
“Don’t do that.”
“It’s a cold yet somewhat sharp image… In terms of a web novel, the Northern Duke?”
“I don’t know what it is, but thank you first.”
After that, both of them headed to the restaurant without a word. Jae-hee knew that someone else was coming, so as she went and talked about what to eat, she brought up several stories.
“Jaejun, are you broadcasting these days?”
“Ugh… Did you know?”
Obviously, I never told Jaehee that I was broadcasting, but it seemed that he found me while browsing the Internet.
But since when did you watch my broadcast? Yesterday’s butler’s suit and jump queen… Various cosplays and dances, from reunions to various broadcasts.
“Since when have you seen…?”
“Well, I think it’s a bit old.”
“I see…”
“It was fun.”
It was so hard to see her face as she smiled next to her with the corner of her mouth raised.
