Chapter 254 – It Can’t Go on Like This. If You Don’t Do Anything
When The Queens heard from Yena Baek about Lee Se-jin and Cheon Bom’s salting, they were furious.
Not to Sejin Lee, but to Bom Cheon.
“Sejin and Cheonbom are openly appealing as a couple. Well, say yes.”
“Because that was the job.”
“But… But…”
Due to Cheonbom’s personality, he had to say something to Sejin Lee, saying that he was embarrassed to do it in front of others.
If she was a dirty and sharp woman of that nature, she would have to block Lee Se-jin’s hand from coming up on her waist, or at least she would have to bruise while being ashamed.
But what?
Do you like holding her hand instead?
With blood rushing to her head, the three women wanted to see the sight for themselves, and she quickly came up with a good reason.
“If it’s an operation, it should be done perfectly.”
“You shouldn’t make any mistakes.”
“Right…”
“Then, what kind of ‘acting’ do you two do, and how well do we do?”
“I know. Seeing that, Sejin will be able to grasp the situation well and proceed as planned.”
“Right…”
So the three women secretly observed Lee Se-jin and Cheon Bom.
Even observation was at the level of seeing Lee Se-jin waiting for Cheon Bom at work every day and going home together, but that alone allowed them to see what they wanted.
“Her arms crossed and her hands held together, they look like a really nice couple.”
“Did you just see it? As soon as she went out the door, did Se-jin scold her by stabbing her in the side?”
“Oh, yes… Besides… I, that… Flashy clothes… That’s outright… I’m going to do it tonight…”
“Minji, you should dress well. It would be worse if Sejin came to see her and she came dressed rudely.”
Anyway, it was good so far.
It was a strategy anyway, and I’ve already admitted that your girls are dating, and I’ve seen worse anyway…
A little bit of jealousy, but that much, it was just a small, insignificant ember.
It was after enough time had passed that the three women could barely cover the small fire.
“Hello?”
In the early evening, Cheonbom came to the lesson room with only three women.
“”…””
“What, why are you here?”
At least the friendly Haeun Lim stepped forward and greeted Cheonbom with 10% gladness and 90% bluntness.
“I want Lee Se-jin to be here.”
“Aren’t you down there? She already left for work.”
“No, no. There is no answer even when I contact…”
“Aren’t you waiting somewhere else? Like a parking lot.”
“No, these days I waited in the same spot on the first floor every day. I can’t go anywhere else without contacting you.”
“Ah… Yes…”
Unable to read the dry atmosphere of the three women, Bom Cheon continued her words.
“Um, he wasn’t even in the office… Where did he really go? The person who took care of me these days.”
“…You seem to be having fun these days~?”
“Yes, what little? Ehehe.”
“…”
Cheon Bom unknowingly laughs at Shin So Ye’s question.
“That person took better care of me than I thought?”
“Can you buy me something delicious?”
“Yes, I ate a lot. You know more delicious things than you think, that man. It looks like he’s doing a lot of research for me. He’s a guy with more cute corners than I thought.”
“…”
Cheonbom, without realizing it, with her light steps, spread out her proud spin in her place.
“Come to think of it, I went to an arcade and a PC room with him yesterday. It was the first time he had been there in his life, and there were many interesting things. Park Min-ji, playing a game is really fun, right?”
“Ah… Yes oh oh…”
“No, did you two have fun together?”
“…”
It was obviously strange.
If it was Cheonbom’s usual, he would show high tension in front of Sejin Lee, but only show a cold and calm appearance in front of others.
But these days she was so happy.
Thanks to the satisfaction of an ideal lover she had dreamed of, she was in a state of excitement every day without even realizing it.
So, even now, she herself had only intended to have a casual chat with the three women, but without realizing it, she ended up doing a light salting.
“Oh right. Come to think of it, you guys have been busy lately, haven’t you been playing well?”
You have a lot of trouble preparing for the performance, everyone take care of your body and work hard. Then I’m off.
Cheon Bom greeted warmly like that and was about to leave her lesson room…
“Chun Bom.”
“Do you seem to be having a lot of fun these days?”
“I guess so oh oh oh… ?”
Before she could say anything, a small spark ignited and turned into a forest fire.
I’m openly cold at work for a few days, and I don’t even have time to warm up in the evening as if I’m careful.
Because it was the hearts of the three women who had dried up like a parched forest in the early spring drought, one trivial spark exploded in an instant.
“Uh, uh… Why are you all suddenly… Looking like that…”
“Does this look of us look quite interesting to you?”
“Isn’t it fun to exclusively drink honey?”
“Something… See oh oh… ?”
“Ah, wait a minute, why again…!”
Cheonbom’s thin screams did not leak out thanks to the perfect soundproofing of her lesson room.
That is, until Yu Ga-hye opened the door without knocking and came in.
***
Even if it was for the operation, it was quite difficult to leave work every day.
There was a lot of work on a regular basis, and there was a performance coming up soon, so there was really a mountain of things to deal with.
While dealing with them quickly and later at home, I continued to leave work to appeal ‘I’m dating Cheonbom’, but that too was slowly reaching its limit.
Thanks to that, we had the meeting late today.
“Thank you for your effort.”
After quickly saying hello and leaving the conference room, I hurried to the lobby on the first floor, but Cheonbom was nowhere to be seen.
‘Weird. I should be here at this hour.’
Oh right, I would have contacted you if I had gone anywhere.
Only then did I take out her cell phone and check the message from Bom Cheon.
〉 Cheonbom: Where are you?
〉 Cheonbom: Office? Lesson room?
〉 Me: I’m out now
〉 Me: Do you have a lesson room?
〉 Me: I’ll go there
Go upstairs and look for me.
I sent a quick reply, but no reply came back.
I’ll have to go find it myself.
‘But I’m worried about something. Who is in the lesson room now?’
The bag manager and the kids… Oh no, the bag manager is eating dinner now, so it must be only Cheonbom with the kids.
Well, it’s been a while since the four of us said hello and talked.
… Four?
‘I’m sure nothing special will happen now.’
I hurried my steps, roughly suppressing my uneasiness.
And as soon as I arrived at the lesson room, I quickly opened the door and entered.
“Children, here is Cheonbom…”
The moment I opened the door, I hesitated for a moment.
Four women were spread all over the practice room.
“…What are you all doing?”
In the large practice room, Minji is stuck in a corner seat, Haeun is in front of the mirror, and Soye and Cheonbom are on opposite walls…
No, the fact that the four of us are as far away as possible is enough to make it look awkward.
“Oh, Sejin-ah. Come on.”
“Leave, didn’t you leave work?”
“Brother… Wed, good job… You did…”
“You are here.”
The four women who greeted me with an awkward smile.
“What, did the four of you fight?”
“Fighting~ Why are we fighting~?”
“That’s right, what are you fighting for!”
“I don’t do that…”
Three people who answered no to my question.
I turned my gaze to Cheonbom, the only one who did not answer.
She looked into my eyes and stuttered.
“Ooh, do you know what kind of enemies we are? Will we fight when we meet?”
However, seeing as he responded cheerfully, it seemed that nothing had happened.
“Right, no.”
I wondered if the kids were getting scolded out of jealousy.
“…That, kids. Sorry.”
“Huh?”
“What is it all of a sudden?”
“Brother… Why…?”
“Because I keep not taking good care of you.”
I smiled shyly and begged the children for their understanding.
“Still, bear with me a little longer. I’ll take good care of you if you calm down your suspicions this time. Only then can we continue to go together. Please bear with me until then, I’m really sorry.”
“…”
“I’m really sorry too, Cheon Bom.”
“Yes? Me, me? You have nothing to be sorry for me right now?”
“Ahaha, everything right now is my responsibility.”
When I said it in a way that I knew everything, all four women averted their eyes.
I almost laughed involuntarily at the sight of the misbehaving puppy avoiding her owner’s eyes.
“Sejin, it’s not your fault. To be precise, my…”
“No, it is my fault. Anyway!”
Mate!
I applauded loudly and deliberately refreshed the atmosphere.
“Have an appropriate evening lesson and go in. It’s going to be a performance in a while, so don’t overdo it and adjust your condition well.”
“Okay.”
“Haeun and Minji do it in moderation.”
“Ugh, is it really… Salty…?”
“…Haeun said to do it in moderation, Minji. Eunah Ha, please take care of Minji.”
“Yes, yes.”
“Kihin.”
“Okay, see you all tomorrow then. Bom Cheon, let’s go.”
“Ah yes…”
Taking the embarrassed Cheonbom outside, I bowed once more and apologized, saying sorry to the kids.
‘It seems that the kids’ patience runs out faster than I thought. I’ll have to do something soon.’
***
Seeing Lee Se-jin leave the practice room with Cheon Bom, Shin So-ye also thought the same thing.
‘I can’t go on like this. If I don’t do anything…’
If we leave the southern chief alone, the current situation will only get worse.
To be precise, the younger siblings run out of patience, and the younger siblings, not themselves… But the younger siblings, unknowingly, mistreat Cheonbom a little more.
I’m fine though! Your siblings are having a hard time
Anyway, that’s it.
‘…It’s my family’s fault.’
And above all, isn’t the reason this happened because of her own dad?
It is she herself who should be held responsible, not Lee Se-jin.
After thinking for a while, she took her cell phone and went outside.
