Chapter 124 – Overpayment (2)
The department store that arrived.
I was puzzled by the empty parking lot even though it was a weekend.
“Arrived.”
“Ah… Yes.”
Thought I’d go down and have a look.
As soon as I came out, someone in a suit came running from afar.
A middle-aged man with straight hair and a neat suit.
This man stood next to Kim Sang-soo and immediately smiled.
“Thank you so much for coming here. Young master.”
“I’m really sorry for coming to you on your busiest day.”
“No. As it happens, internal repairs are scheduled for today… You can shop comfortably.”
“Thank you so much for being so convenient. We’re only going to see it for about three hours, so don’t mind us.”
“Yes, Bocchan.”
A man who says that and gestures to someone.
As the man who appeared to be a guide approached, the middle-aged man spoke cautiously.
“Mr. Jaehyun. Since you’re a VVIP, I’ll ask for valet parking.”
“Yes, I understand. Store manager.”
Kim Sang-soo naturally hands the car key to the guide.
Then, looking at the man called the store manager, he put on an apologetic expression.
“We’re really fine, so take care of it.”
“How can I… “
“Please. Store manager.”
“Then, if you need anything, please let me know anytime.”
“Thank you.”
The man who withdrew like that.
I couldn’t help but open my mouth while watching this series of events.
“No way… Did you rent this department store?”
“Yes. It’s a department store run by my house… I only rented it for about 3 hours. It’s the weekend, so it’s hard to rent all day.”
A scene that is hard to see recently even in Korean dramas.
I never thought I would be treated like this in a game I made.
A ridiculous existence with really no ability, wealth, or appearance.
It was difficult for me to adapt because I had never met such a person in my life.
And my heart started pounding from a while ago.
After drinking the water, the pounding heart did not stop.
It is also sealed and there is no foreign matter in the water.
So my reaction is… He says he has a crush on Kim Sang-soo…
I had to come to an absurd conclusion.
My heart is pounding, so I think Kim Sang-soo looks more handsome…
I also don’t know why my heart is like this.
As if I had fallen in love for the first time, I had no choice but to continue drinking the water Kim Sang-soo gave me.
Contrary to my appearance, Kim Sang-su calmly guides me into the department store.
Perhaps it was true that he was the son of a conglomerate, but his natural appearance made me feel ashamed.
Kim Sang-soo looking at me like that.
He smiled and looked at me.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes… Yes?”
“Your face looks very red.”
“Ah… That is… “
I also don’t know why I am doing this.
My appearance is Lee Ji-eun, but I myself was a man inside…
Even if I was acting as Lee Ji-eun, I couldn’t help but be embarrassed by his aggressive behavior.
Kim Sang-soo reaches out and touches my forehead.
Originally, I should have hated it… Unknowingly, I accepted his hand.
“You don’t seem to have a fever… Aren’t you sick?”
“Ah… No. It’s really fine.”
Take a deep breath and feel a little better.
I laughed awkwardly and proved with my whole body that I was okay.
“Tell me if something is uncomfortable or strange. Got it?”
“Yes I will.”
Caring Kim Sang-soo.
I felt like I was falling more and more into him for such meticulous consideration.
Me and Kim Sang-soo in the elevator like that.
He turned and pointed out of the elevator.
“If you look west from this side, you can see the amusement park at a glance. Look.”
The amusement park I saw according to his words.
The amusement park I went to play with Siwoo and Mina the other day came into view.
“Is that the place you went to play with your friends the other day?”
“Yes that’s right.”
“Whoops. When I was in school, I often went out with my friends. It is a memory.”
“When did you go to school?”
“One… It seems like 5 years ago. It was five years ago when I graduated from high school.”
Kim Sang-soo, about 25 years old.
At a younger age than before I was possessed by the game, he was a victor who had everything, including money and fame.
An embarrassing situation.
I’m more than jealous of him… There was an unknown respect.
If it’s according to my original personality, I’ll say yes, but…
Every time I talked to him from earlier, my thumping heart had this effect.
“Okay, we’ve arrived.”
The elevator reached a fairly high floor.
When I came out, a luxurious place with colorful marbles appeared.
A place so gorgeous that I wonder if I can come to a place like this.
There were expensive-looking ornaments and flowers everywhere, and calm classical music was flowing.
Employees in black suits were waiting in front of them as soon as they got off the elevator.
They recognized Kim Sang-soo and greeted him.
“Welcome. Young master.”
“I’m sorry everyone is busy. I’ll go shopping soon.”
“Don’t worry too much. Young master.”
“Everyone works hard, but we shouldn’t be harmed.”
The tyranny of chaebols that often appears in dramas and media.
Contrary to that, Kim Sang-soo, who was polite and kind, smiled and did not hide his apologetic feelings.
Kim Sang-soo, the more I go, the more I fall in love with him.
I felt more and more thirsty, so I took another sip of bottled water.
“Today I came to buy clothes suitable for this beautiful lady. Can you help me?”
“Of course. Which brand would you like?”
“Hmm… I think Hermis would be a good bag… As for the clothes, I think Nelsha would be nice. Jieun’s taste may be different from mine, so it would be nice if you could coordinate with other brands as well.”
“Then I’ll take you this way.”
A woman who appeared to be a coordinator started guiding us.
Luxury goods that are in the game but have never been touched in life.
Of course, it was a brand that only changed its name due to copyright issues, but clothes and things like that were the same as luxury goods.
Why did you spend so much money on commissions?
It was to highlight the part that gives this reality…
When I experienced this, it felt like a new world.
“Excuse me, but what is your name, young lady?”
“I… My name is Lee Ji-eun.”
“Then, excuse me, but may I call you Ji-eun?”
“Yes… Yes, of course.”
Cody who lifts me up so much.
I looked at Kim Sang-soo for help, but he was smiling with a satisfied expression with his arms crossed.
“Customer Jieun, what kind of clothes do you usually wear?”
“I am… “
The clothes I usually wear.
It was always plain clothes like a sweatshirt or shorts and a t-shirt.
To be honest, these clothes are a bit unsuitable for a girl to wear.
Unlike those clothes… The clothes here were seen only as luxurious brands for mature women.
“Crack… It’s a training suit… “
Cody seemed a bit taken aback by those words.
Kim Sang-soo looked at the coordinator with a smile.
“It’s my first time visiting a place like this, so I’ll ask for something that suits me.”
“Well sir.”
Cody who listens to Kim Sang-soo and looks at me.
This person smiled and guided me somewhere.
In front of a full-length mirror.
Standing in front of him, he took out various clothes and started showing them one by one.
Avant-garde.
New S/F.
Sporty feel.
Cool tones, warm tones, etc.
Every time unfamiliar words came and went, clothes began to pile up on top of me.
My body naturally gets tired.
So I unknowingly tried to look at the price tag…
The amount was outside the amount I know.
A simple-looking coat cost over 3 million won…
One bag was priced at 7 million won.
A bag with Nelsha Classic written on it.
I couldn’t help but be horrified to see such a terrifying bag.
That’s how the coordination is complete from head to toe.
Plaid skirt with a black blouse.
From white shoes with luxury logos to expensive-looking bags.
Overall, it’s a really normal fashion…
The price of all this… Exceeded ten million won.
Even a simple bag alone costs 7 million won.
The blouse is 1.2 million won.
A plaid skirt costs 700,000 won.
The shoes are 2.7 million won.
A total of 11.6 million won came out.
Jaw-dropping flex.
Seeing this, Kim Sang-soo looked at me with a smile.
“It suits you well.”
“I… You… I think it’s too expensive… “
“Are you still planning to buy more?”
“Yes?”
“Please pay all in a lump sum.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Kim Sang-soo took out a card.
There is something written in English on his hand…
I knew the identity of this card through the media.
The black card, often called a symbol of wealth.
I didn’t expect to see it here.
Kim Sang-soo looks at me after making the payment without thinking about it.
He came to me with a smile.
“It’s really pretty. Mr. Jieun.”
“Go… Thank you.”
“Do you like the clothes?”
“This… It’s the first time it’s been this expensive… “
“You will gradually adapt. You will come often with me.”
“… Yes?”
Kim Sang-soo and I who shopped for three hours like that.
I had a huge amount of luxury items in my hand…
Kim Sang-soo just smiled and paid without hesitation.
* * *
Back in the car after 3 hours of frantic shopping.
Looking at the luxury goods in the back seat, I wondered if it would be possible to take it home with me.
“Is it because of your parents?”
“Yes… “
“Don’t worry. I’ll secretly send it to you later.”
“Go… Thank you.”
“It’s because I get along well with Jieun, so don’t worry too much about it.”
“I think I used too much… “
Kim Sang-soo, who just watched me throughout the shopping.
He showed consideration for me the entire time I was shopping.
There…
Kim Sang-soo, who makes me happy whenever I wear clothes.
Is it because…
My heart didn’t stop trembling.
“Now, shall we go home?”
“… “
A state where I thought I didn’t want to let him go like this without knowing it.
I looked at him carefully and spoke.
“Oh… Thank you so much for today.”
“Don’t worry.”
“I… “
“Yes?”
“Like… Do you have any time?”
A state in which I have lost control of my body, that is, Lee Ji-eun, without even realizing it.
Unlike Geum Tae-yang and Kim Deok-bae, it was a decision I made on my own, which surprised even myself.
“Time?”
“That… Therefore… I am also thankful for today… I’m also thankful… “
I was ashamed of myself for unknowingly taking a break.
Kim Sang-soo staring blankly at me.
Knowing women well, he noticed right away and smiled.
K., An office worker who slowly approaches me.
I didn’t reject his kiss.
