Chapter 626 – Cheeky Women Have Their Charms (2)
“..I’ll skip that part for now.”
For once Are you saying that if you have any complaints later, you will ask again?
Hypnosis itself was only about wanting to be spawned, so my personality was revealed in every trivial word.
“Instead, I want you to make this part clear.”
“Please speak.”
I had a hunch that the next story wouldn’t be particularly pleasant, but I accepted it without hesitation, wanting to hear everything he had to say.
“Not to mention things like hidden cameras, and filming is strictly prohibited. Please make sure to keep it a secret so as not to spread strange rumors, and even if it’s a sponsor relationship, I hope you keep basic manners.”
“…”
If you listen to each one, you can fully understand the proposal, and there is nothing strange about it even if the other side asks for it first.
However, the way he said it out of his mouth was as if he were a superior to me, as if he were teaching me one by one.
“Isn’t this normal?”
“..That’s right.”
Maybe she was offended when I didn’t answer her words, and she even urged me to answer with a slightly sharper voice.
Do you have no idea how your tone of voice is perceived by others?
Hey, if her face and body were like that, even if she went around with a little bit of a straight face, people around her would have noticed her and supported her.
Women don’t know, but at least men in their teens or early 20s, who are crazy about women, must have been like that.
Even after coming out to society, he only lived in the unique industry of modeling, so he would have received basic treatment just for his face and body.
“Even if you don’t say that, I will keep all the basic manners. Didn’t Seol-ah listen to you?”
“..I just heard that he has good manners and a good personality. I’m sorry if you offended me.”
Neither the expression nor the way he spoke was an apologetic attitude. Rather, it seemed that he felt uncomfortable, as if he was asking for something like this.
“I’m not interested in hidden cameras either, and I did take a few pictures with Seol-ah. If you say no, I’ll take it seriously.”
“Please.”
Still, since I coordinated it in my own way, he didn’t act too harsh.
“And one more.”
The words are now shorter.
It was absurd that there was still something left to ask for, but that confident, even shameless attitude felt fresh throughout the conversation.
“No matter how much work is given separately, I would like the minimum amount to be supported.”
“..How much?”
“I don’t want much. Just give me 300 a month.”
That’s a lot to say you don’t want much.
Apparently, according to Choi Seol-ah and Lim Ye-jin, the basics were about 300 per month, and they said that if they received more, they would receive 500 per month.
Since the amount of money coming in from a single shoot right away is quite high, even if you get a job through a sponsorship, it will be a larger amount than 300, and the time and career you get from doing that will also be valuable as a model.
What the hell did Lee Eun-seol think his ransom was, so he was trying to get 300 more while getting the job.
After hearing such a proposal that could be calculated with money, I could clearly understand Lim Ye-jin’s words that Lee Eun-seol lives on her own good taste.
“Hmm..”
Giving Lee Eun-seol an additional 300 per month is not a burden.
It’s not exactly me, but Yoo Seo-yeon gave it to me, but Yoo Seo-yeon’s was mine anyway.
However, since I don’t want to do that to Lee Eun-seol right away, regardless of whether or not it’s burdensome, I don’t want to go over it as coolly as I did until now, so I intentionally put on a worried expression and let out a quiet voice.
“..If it’s really hard, it’s okay not to do that much.”
As I hesitated to answer, pretending to be worried, Lee Eun-seol tried to pass the topic off with a plaintive voice.
But for some reason, in his expression and voice, there was an atmosphere of trying to touch his pride, saying, ‘Can’t you do that much?’
“..From my point of view, there must be a long-awaited connection, and I did it because I thought it would be more helpful to help in this way if I was going to spawn models. 300 isn’t particularly difficult.”
“Then..”
“But, apart from that. I’m not sure right now whether Eun-seol is a person worth doing that much for.”
“Radish…”
As if she couldn’t even say that short word properly, Lee Eun-seol’s face instantly turned red and her lips twitched with a firm expression as if she couldn’t understand what she was saying.
Had he not had other intentions, he would have made the offer because he thought that he deserved to be treated that way, so he was embarrassed, or even hurt his pride.
“That’s what…”
“Therefore.”
It was only after nearly 10 seconds had passed that Lee Eun-seol, who was trying to argue with a firm expression, calmly cut off his embarrassment.
“I know Eunseol-ssi is pretty. I don’t know a lot of models, but there are very few who are as good as Eun-seol.”
“However..”
“But, it’s not like she doesn’t exist at all, right? Right now Seol-ah didn’t have any recognition, but she’s pretty enough to be second to Eun-seol.”
“…”
This time, when he casually cut off his words and scratched Lee Eun-seol’s pride lightly by mentioning Choi Seol-ah, his face reddened again as if the heat that had barely subsided rose again.
“I’ve said it over and over again, I know that Eun-seol is pretty. But as a model, she’s not that well-known, and she’s just mediocre, right? Seol-ah has now signed an exclusive contract.”
“That’s because… You… Spawned…”
Now, I am not Minseok, I have become ‘that side’.
Until now, it was difficult to say that he was particularly polite, but now it meant that he was so pissed off that it was difficult to be polite.
“That’s right. But apart from that, in my opinion, Eun-seol is not much better than Seol-ah.”
Rattle!
Lee Eun-seol pushed the chair out of the chair and jumped up as if he could not stand it any longer.
At that moment, the eyes of the cafe suddenly rushed, but seeing that he was trembling thinly with clenched fists and a flushed face, biting his lips tightly, as if he didn’t care about that, he looked really pissed off.
“You may be offended, but I think so.”
“…That’s Okay.”
Since Lee Eun-seol hadn’t been hypnotized by anything since he entered the cafe, he thought he could leave his seat like this.
Surprisingly, Lee Eun-seol took a deep breath and let go of her anger, then pulled up a chair and sat across from her.
Did it hurt his pride that he said that he was similar to Choi Seol-ah and that there was nothing better about him?
There may be a slight difference in taste, but it was a hard reaction to understand as I don’t think there is a big difference in the level of the two people.
“It doesn’t matter if I don’t take the money.”
But do you really want to get a job from a spawn? Perhaps that’s why he put aside his pride and let go of his anger and sat in front of me again.
I was able to read the inside of the words enough to get rid of my anger.
“I can give it to you if you need it.”
“..That’s Okay.”
This time, when I offered to give him money, he showed signs of worrying for a moment, but he flatly refused, probably because his pride was more damaged than he was willing to accept it now.
“I’m sorry if I offended you. But I thought I should make it clear what I had to say.”
“…All right.”
Like Lee Eun-seol, he apologized in a voice that was not sorry at all, and then nailed it again saying that he was sincere.
It must have been quite upsetting, to the point that her slightly shrunken shoulders trembled thinly.
“I’m worried about the people around me, so shall we go out? Lunch is still over, right?”
“..Yes.”
“Then, let’s talk about the rest while we eat.”
This time, he didn’t listen to Lee Eun-seol’s answer and stood up with a cup. Eun-seol Lee got up without a word and followed him without looking into his eyes.
And when I went to the parking lot where I parked the car, unlocked it, and tried to get into the car, I saw the figure of him quickly rolling his eyes and scanning the car as if he had forgotten that he was angry at the moment.
‘He seems to know tea well.’
Was it less angry than I thought, or was it more of a calculating personality. Either way, it was true that the expression that had been frozen in the car for a moment was relieved.
‘It’s not that I don’t understand.’
Because I’ve been through a lot of poverty, I can fully understand how much magic money has.
If it were me back then, I would have asked for a slap on the cheek for 1 million won, and then I would have smiled and greeted him and offered to hit the other cheek as well, so Lee Eun-seol’s reaction did not feel pathetic.
On the contrary, I thought that the appearance of him stiffening his face again and getting into the seat next to him, as if his self-esteem had been hurt by letting go of his stiff expression, even if only for a short time.
It was impossible to erase all thoughts of money from your head and run amok unless you were a rich man who didn’t need to worry about money or had a real anger control disorder.
“Is there anything else you’d like to eat?”
“..It doesn’t matter.”
“Then, shall we go get some sushi? I know a good place.”
“..Does not matter.”
Normally, if a woman looks for ‘anything’ during a date, it will be very difficult for a man, but now I have no need to notice Lee Eun-seol, so I decided on my own.
Personally, when I met a woman, sushi or pasta were the menus that I liked without liking, and I like sushi quite a bit, so I used to choose sushi when it was annoying to think about.
As we drove in silence without saying anything, I opened my mouth lightly without even looking at Lee Eun-seol.
“Mr. Eunseol.”
“..Yes.”
A cold voice, as if he didn’t want to talk. A normal man might have flinched here, but I had no reason to do so.
“Once again, I apologize. I’m sorry if you were offended.”
“…That’s Okay.”
However, without revealing such intentions at all, I politely apologized and went out with a low profile. Lee Eun-seol still answered with a slightly softened voice.
That doesn’t mean I accepted the apology, though I passed it on saying it was okay.
“Anyway, we’ll see each other often from now on. There’s no need to start in such a bad mood. Please lighten up a bit.”
“..All right.”
Short answer this time. I have no intention of accepting an apology, but I wonder if it can alleviate my mood a little.
She laughed at the absurd answer at the selfish answer without knowing what the standard was, but she let it go without showing the slightest outward appearance.
It’s not fun to just hit one-sidedly, so I thought I’d restore my pride again for now.
