Chapter 174 – Even the Best of Friends Have Secrets (1)
Although she only had one, Lee Ji-eun had a history of dating her.
At the time, we were both busy high school students, so it was all about watching movies on the weekends, going to cafes, and taking time out to go to amusement parks during vacations, but isn’t that what dating is all about in the first place?
She thought so But now she has come to think that idea is wrong.
Dating is, after all, something you do with someone you like. If you ask me if I didn’t have a crush on my ex-boyfriend, it wouldn’t be like that, but I didn’t have a pounding heart as a member of the opposite sex.
Just curious. She only accepted the confession out of curiosity about the act of dating. In reality, I just watched a movie, went to a cafe, and went to an amusement park with a male friend who was not a lover.
It wasn’t love
The first love in my life, no, I don’t even know if I can call this a relationship. She obviously had romantic feelings for Choi Min-seok, but is Choi Min-seok the same? It was a question she had asked herself several times, but Lee Ji-eun could not give a positive answer to this question.
Unlike himself, who had a hard time controlling his nervous and pounding heart throughout the date, Choi Min-seok always seemed relaxed and comfortable.
Even if she thought about it herself, she wasn’t a good person, but her eyes that Choi Min-seok was looking at him didn’t contain any special emotions.
At most, the gaze of a cute little brother. I got a number, but after all, it’s not like I’m exchanging words for dating, and no matter how well I put it, I couldn’t think of anything more than a relationship that was lightly flirting with words these days.
“I can see it.”
After her date with Choi Min-seok was over, she met Jung Hye-soo and told her about her worries for a few days. Jung Hye-soo, as usual, calmly organized her thoughts for a while and nodded her head in agreement.
“Is that so?”
“It felt like that from the beginning. I didn’t like the atmosphere that I got a number from, and I just accepted it because I thought it would be fun? I didn’t feel like I was impatient because I wanted to be close to you.”
At least, from Jung Hye-soo’s point of view, that was the case. Rather, it was Lee Ji-eun who was anxious to get closer, and Choi Min-seok was just a little nervous, but no special emotions were revealed.
“I even gave her my number, but these days, whenever we go on a date, I feel like I’m just being treated like a kid. We’re only four years apart.”
His slightly sulky tone of voice exudes a sense of nervousness, which is rare.
She had known Lee Ji-eun for quite a while, but she rarely showed her side like this, so she was a little worried.
“So, what would you like me to do?”
“If I dated my brother… Oh, no… At least I don’t want to be treated like a kid. But now that I’m 20, I’d like him to be conscious.”
“In the end, it’s not like they’re ambiguous like they are now, but they want to date properly.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
“Ha..”
Jeong Hye-soo let out a helpless sigh at the answer, which honestly revealed her true feelings without hiding it, even though she was ashamed of it because she had been with her for a long time.
To be honest, she doesn’t look very promising.
Four years difference. It wasn’t that much, but from Choi Min-seok’s point of view, when he was 20, he was just out of high school, so it wouldn’t be strange if he looked young.
They didn’t go on dates anymore, but they were still constantly running into each other at the driving academy, so I could roughly see how Choi Min-seok treated Lee Ji-eun.
In the current atmosphere, the sweet lover-like relationship Lee Ji-eun wanted was absolutely impossible.
“Where on earth do you like this so much?”
“I just want to do something good..”
In the end, the reason why Lee Ji-eun likes Choi Min-seok is only her handsome face and her unique ‘atmosphere’ that she cannot understand herself.
It would be downright Lee Ji-eun not to ask about income, educational background, wealth, etc.
‘It’s a pity that there is no clear information.’
I’ve heard that her parents are in some business, but I’m not sure how wealthy her family is. Plus, she’s a high school graduate. Although she had done well in her studies, she was at the mid-level in the end, she said unequivocally.
‘Still, if you look at the conditions, it’s not bad.’
Anyway, isn’t it a person who has a lot of money, a good-looking face, and a good personality? I didn’t even think about getting married right away, and I didn’t think it would be bad for a romantic partner.
“Then why don’t you try on clothes a little differently?”
“Clothes?”
“It’s still not bad, but it’s too ordinary. It’s not that I’m telling you to dress cheaply, but I’m saying that you wear clothes that are a little thinner and a bit more exposed.”
It’s not that Lee Ji-eun’s sense is bad, but there is a difference between the clothes she wears when meeting women and when meeting men.
It may also depend on her partner, but skirts are better than pants when meeting men. Her skirt wouldn’t be the skirt that Lee Ji-eun often wears, but would have been shorter enough to slightly expose her thighs.
Wouldn’t she get more attention if she wore clothes that reveal the lines of her body even a little bit, rather than wearing light and comfortable clothes?
Originally, she wasn’t the type to recommend to her friends, but she didn’t want to recklessly flirt with men, and if the person she wanted to show off was decided, she would be fine.
“Yeah, but if you look at it strangely…”
“You said you consulted because you wanted people to look at you strangely, but what are you doing? Right now… The time is ambiguous. Let’s not go on a date tomorrow, let’s go shopping for clothes. Okay?”
“Yes..”
I don’t have dating experience right now, but I have to help like this. It was funny even thinking about it myself, but it was inevitable for my friend.
*
‘Has the atmosphere changed?’
To be precise, Lee Ji-eun herself remained the same, and her aura seemed different because of the change in the style of her clothes.
A skirt that was noticeably short enough to reveal half of her thighs, light black stockings that contrasted with her usual flesh color, a light brown coat instead of the white padding she always wore, and a thin beige sweater that showed off her body line.
It wasn’t too bad to wear clothes that gave off a feeling of being a ‘woman’ even though there was almost no exposure.
‘It’s not bad though.’
Although this change was unexpected, it was unexpected in a good way, so there is no need to worry about it.
Already, she hypnotized Lee Ji-eun, saying, ‘She looks like her child, so she doesn’t seem to be treated as her dating partner’. And her current plan was to hypnotize her, which made her increasingly irritable, then drag me to her motel on her side first.
A change of clothes does not interfere with the plan. Still, she hypnotized her the day before yesterday, but the fact that she skipped a date yesterday and changed her clothes drastically means that the hypnosis was effective.
“How is it?”
Jung Hye-soo asks her impression of Lee Ji-eun’s changed clothes. It was probably Jung Hye-soo’s idea to change her attire, although she already half-anticipated it.
Lee Ji-eun, whom I’ve seen so far, is very shy, so she wouldn’t have thought of using her body as a weapon in this way.
Even now, there is not much exposure, only the skirt is slightly shortened and only the body line is slightly exposed, but the face is blushing and avoiding attention.
“It’s pretty. The atmosphere has changed drastically.”
“Then you weren’t pretty before?”
“It was pretty. Now it’s even prettier.”
When Jung Hye-soo pushes her to try harder, she gives a slightly fleshed-out answer, and Lee Ji-eun’s face turns red even more.
Still, she’s been hanging out for over a week now, and she’s rarely shy, but now she’s as speechless as she was back when we first met.
But what I care more about is Jung Hye-soo.
‘I need to care.’
Haru asks Lee Ji-eun to hypnotize her. No, assuming that she met right after the date, it means that she consulted her about her concerns in half a day, and even persuaded her to wear clothes that she would be ashamed of.
No matter how good she gets along with her, he is too quick to share her concerns. If Lee Ji-eun hypnotized her that it might be a good idea to seduce me with her body, she would definitely have talked to Jung Hye-soo about that method as well.
And, if Jeong Hye-soo is sane, there’s no way her friend would open her legs to a guy she’s been dating less than a month. Of course I would stop saying no.
No matter how bad Jeong Hye-soo said, if you try to hypnotize her, she will eventually give up her body of her own will, but she is interfered with, and she has no reason to use her spirit anymore.
‘I’m glad I knew in advance.’
If I hadn’t known about it, now that I already knew, Jung Hye-soo could no longer protect Lee Ji-eun from my clutches.
“Has the author completely stopped talking?”
“Eh, it’s my first time wearing something like this, so it’s awkward…”
Are you bothered by the skirt that is significantly shorter than usual? Even in the middle of her reply, she glances down at her skirt and tries to pull it down slightly, but stops her hand.
“It’s not just something I’m saying, it really suits you, so don’t worry.”
“Yes..”
The mixture of joy and embarrassment at her compliments on her face stirred up her sadism, but she didn’t show it.
Originally, it was my taste to put up with this kind of thing and then explode it on the bed.
And, Jung Hye-soo, who did not know Choi Min-seok’s feelings at all, once again solidified her evaluation of Choi Min-seok in her heart.
‘I don’t think he’s a bad person after all.’
A reaction that a man inevitably sees. A shortened skirt, sleek black stockings, and a thin sweater revealing the waist and chest lines.
I skimmed through all these elements quickly, but, as usual, there was no reaction.
A man with a negative mind would have made a little more fuss and praised Lee Ji-eun’s changed clothes, and would have revealed her true heart more blatantly.
Jung Hye-soo is obviously quick-witted and reads people’s thoughts well, but since the men she has experienced so far are only middle school and high school students who have difficulty controlling their sexual desire, she eventually becomes a hunter who is convinced that she can catch and eat them all. I couldn’t understand the leeway.
