Chapter 269 – In the Meantime, Your Girlfriend Changed!?
Just in case, I know it’s really stupid, but I wonder if there’s someone with the same name as me.
With that thought in mind, I looked around for a moment.
But there was no one else around here but me.
Feeling double-headed, I raised my index finger and pointed at myself.
Is it right that you called me?
The woman nodded her head and scolded me.
“Oh my goodness? Why doesn’t she suddenly act like she knows? “Are you pretending not to know that she has a girlfriend?”
Even though it was a bruise, it didn’t feel like he was blaming me at all because his voice was so clear and matched with a face as bright as a sunflower.
Rather, should I say that I am a little worried because a friend I haven’t seen in a long time is reacting strangely?
That bright reaction was actually more frightening.
‘If it’s not enough that we just know each other, do you even know that I have a lover?’
Should I tell my friends that I dated Soye? Absolutely not.
I would be careful to even give room for such imagination.
But why does this woman know everything? Who on earth is she?
Feeling very nervous, I approached slowly.
“Hmm~? Why is your expression so stiff? “What happened?”
“Well, I came to run an errand for CEO Isara…”
“Move? CEO?”
“It’s also an errand for Chief Secretary Yoo Ga-hye.”
“Yoo Gahye? “Who are they?”
The woman asked as if she really didn’t know.
But do you really not know?
Could it be that he senses that I’m thinking and is acting up?
‘Honestly, it’s not impossible.’
I know this well because I watched Soye act from the side.
That people who are good at acting can never tell when they lie.
Acting is more natural than natural.
‘Wait a minute, maybe that’s really true.’
If this woman is on the CEO or Yoo Ga-hye’s side, she must have some ties to the entertainment industry.
So maybe she really already learned acting?
The fact that this woman is acting so slyly may be proof that she is related to the CEO or Yoo Ga-hye.
‘Damn, I can’t believe I came to a place like this without any preparation.’
I was so defenseless.
This place may have something to do with the CEO, but I came alone and without any preparations or insurance.
When I glanced around, I couldn’t see anyone else but me and this woman.
Still, you have to be careful.
It won’t be good for you to find out that I’m stalking you.
“No way, Lee Se-jin…”
The woman narrowed her eyes and looked at me with great suspicion.
“Did you change your girlfriend in the meantime!?”
“Yes?”
***
The name of the woman at the flower shop was Hwa Eun-jeong, and it seemed like we were really close friends, not just some kind of relationship.
When she asked what kind of relationship I had with her, thinking that I should just tackle the absurd question head-on, she replied, ‘We were close friends! ‘A man’s friend and a woman’s friend!’ She cried.
“S-No way… I thought you weren’t my friend… I was the only one who thought that…”
“Ahh, that’s not it!”
After somehow calming the woman down, she informed her that she had lost her memories. Of course, while telling the story appropriately.
“Oh my goodness… Why did you lose your memories of that time? .”
Hwa Eun-jeong covers her mouth with both hands and reacts in tears.
People really cry easily. Or maybe he was that close to me.
My curiosity grew as I wondered what kind of relationship it was that made him be so kind to me.
“If you have lost your memory, how are things going with that person? He is the One Who Must Not Be Named!”
Are you referring to the Great Demon King from a certain fantasy novel?
“No, that’s… Uh… “
I was going to reply that I was dating So-Ye well, but stopped.
She shouldn’t tell anyone she’s dating him, right?
My past self, I see you were keeping an important secret well.
“It seems like it was just the day before yesterday that we celebrated our success in dating! Could it be that they parted ways while losing their memories…”
Hwa Eun-jeong looked like she was going to cry again, so I quickly calmed her down.
“No, no, that doesn’t happen! “We are getting along well.”
“Oh, that’s a relief! “If I cheered so hard and that love didn’t work out, I would be very sad.”
“Cheering?”
“Yes. I really supported Lee Se-jin. “Don’t you remember she said… Oh that’s right, I said I wasn’t wearing them.”
Hwa Eun-jeong nodded her head alone and continued her explanation.
“Lee Se-jin, you came here and asked me for a lot of help. “How can I win more women’s hearts…”
“Me to you?”
“Yes. Sejin Lee at that time was extremely desperate. So much so that my hands were sweating as I watched from the side. I see, if you think about it, you didn’t have much time to spare when you first came.”
***
A few months ago, the flower shop ‘Flower House’.
Hwa Eun-jeong was watering the flowers as usual.
“Excuse me…”
A man came into the flower shop hesitantly.
Although he looked quite tall, he seemed clumsy and strangely nervous, which made me very concerned.
“Welcome~ Did you come to buy flowers?”
“Yes, yes… Well, I want to buy a bouquet of flowers… Something decent…”
“You’ve come to the right place. There are a lot of really pretty kids in my house! What type are you looking for? Rose? Or Phrygia?”
A man who thinks for a moment about Hwa Eun-jeong’s words.
“I… I’d like a rose, please.”
“Red? White? Or pink? Oh, there’s a blue one too.”
“Uh… Um… Red seems a bit burdensome… I don’t think blue is… White or pink…”
Seeing the man who couldn’t make a choice easily, Hwa Eun-jeong hurriedly added.
“Oh my gosh, look at my mind. I just moved on without even asking where I wanted to use it. They all have different meanings… Who are you giving the bouquet of flowers to? Girl friend?”
“Oh, well, no, not yet…”
“Yet? Oh, then do you want to confess?”
“Go go go go, confess… No, no, go go go, not confess…”
“Then I guess you are simply looking for a gift to a friend?”
“Yes…But I don’t think it would be meaningful if you gave something too ordinary as a gift.”
A man who is confused.
“It seems like something is complicated. If you don’t mind, could you explain the situation to me? “I will recommend you as a perfect fit.”
“…”
The man stiffened at the woman’s words.
But he soon put on a serious expression as if he had made up his mind and nodded his head.
***
The man’s name is Lee Se-jin.
He briefly introduced himself to Hwa Eun-jeong and explained the situation.
I had just started a job and met someone I liked there.
The person is treating me kindly, and I am getting closer little by little, and I want to progress this relationship quickly.
If you don’t, it’s very difficult because it’s your first time loving someone and approaching them…
“Oh my~”
Hwa Eun-jeong, who heard the whole story, was amazed with a very happy expression.
It’s rare to find anything as enjoyable as someone else’s love story, and Lee Se-jin’s story was so exciting to her, as she worked at a flower shop and imagined the flowers she sold over and over again becoming a tool to make her dreams come true.
“Then why did you want to give me flowers? “Men usually buy bouquets of flowers only when they confess.”
“Well… I was talking to that older sister the other day, and she said she really likes flowers. “Her mother worked with flowers, so I’ve seen them often since I was young, and I like them because they smell good and put her mind at ease.”
“Aha, that’s right~ But you’re too hasty.”
“Ugh, sudden acceleration?”
Hwa Eun-jeong nods.
“You were trying to buy roses. But roses are the flowers she buys when she confesses her love. One flower means ‘love at first sight,’ and a hundred flowers means ‘perfect love.'”
“Isn’t it different depending on the color?”
“Yes, it’s different, but the keyword ‘love’ is included in all roses. “Anyway, if I give you a rose, I’m sure he’ll interpret it as Lee Se-jin confessing to you, right?”
“Oh, I see…”
“Lee Se-jin, even if you already know her feelings, her sudden confession will be a bit burdensome from the woman’s perspective. So, giving a rose as a gift is not appropriate…”
After saying that, Hwa Eun-jeong stood up and rummaged through the flowers.
“How about this freesia?”
“Freesia…?”
“The language of flowers is ‘I support you.’ I heard you work together at work? Then, cheering would be a light act of cuteness. Plus, it has lyrics from an old song, so it may seem slightly romantic. Why do you know that? “It will give me the scent of freesia flowers~”
“Oh, yes, I know.”
Lee Se-jin became a flower and she accepted the flowers.
“Start off lightly like this and continue giving flower gifts. This will show you like them and may make the other person conscious of you. “If the flower makes you think of Sejin Lee just by looking at it, it will be perfect.”
“Wow, that’s nice.”
Lee Se-jin nodded her head enthusiastically, as if she was impressed by the strategy recommended by Hwa Eun-jeong.
Then his face immediately changed to a look of concern.
“Oh my, why are you doing that again? “Have you got any other concerns?”
“No, that’s not it… If you don’t mind, can I ask you a favor?”
“Ask?”
“I would like to ask for some coaching. Hearing what you’re saying now, it seems like you have a good idea of how to proceed with the relationship…”
“Uh… I only saw a few things while working at a flower shop.”
“But you probably know a lot better than me.”
Lee Se-jin becomes a desperate voice.
“I think things will work out better if I listen to Hwa Eun-jeong’s advice and move on rather than doing something stupid.”
“Oh my, you are so desperate. “It seems like you really liked that person.”
“Yes. “No matter what happens, I don’t want to lose this person.”
Lee Se-jin said that, and his eyes showed a firm will.
Hwa Eun-jeong thought for a moment.
I’m just acting a little too excited now, but is it okay if I get involved in this person’s flirtation?
It seems like a lot of fun to be able to intuit and coach other people’s relationships, but it can also be a little burdensome…
“I will buy all the flower bouquets I give as a gift here. “I plan to continue giving gifts as Hwa Eun-jeong advised, so I think I will buy quite a lot.”
“Okay, sure.”
