Chapter 966 – Eunseol Needs to Be Punished First (2)
“Where are you going.?”
“I’m picking up Seol-ah.”
“Yes.?”
After calmly answering Lee Eun-seol’s question after finally calming down her heated body, a brief sound of confusion came out, as if asking what she was talking about.
“Why Seol-ah.”
“It seems like the two of you aren’t getting along well, so I decided to get closer and get better.”
“. It’s not that bad.”
Like a child who was told he was going to the dentist. I couldn’t help but laugh at her answer, which already hinted that she didn’t want to go.
Even though I don’t know exactly how bad the relationship between the two was, it seemed like they were not happy about this meeting when they reacted like that.
This is just my guess, but if Choi Seol-ah had heard her bragging about receiving a gift with special meaning, it was highly likely that she would be thinking that she was falling behind.
“First of all, Seol-ah said it was okay.”
“I.”
“Are you okay, Eunseol?”
Although she received prior permission from Seol-ah Choi, the fact that she received permission from herself as if it were in fact a one-sided notification must also be a blow to her pride.
However, she has definitely accepted the position that she is a dog, and she has done something wrong, so it would be difficult to say no outright.
“. It’s okay.”
As expected. Her smile grew stronger as she reluctantly answered that she was okay.
“Well, it’s not the first time the three of us have met.”
After calming down Lee Eun-seol, who was still shaken and speechless, I drove leisurely in silence, arrived in front of Choi Seol-ah’s officetel, parked her car, and sent her a message.
[Arrived in front of 〉.]
[〈I’ll go now.]
As she had made an appointment in advance, she had already prepared and was waiting. A reply came back immediately.
And, not long after, the officetel entrance opened and Choi Seol-ah came out.
The first thing that caught my eye was the skirt, which was slightly shorter than last time.
‘They’re only doing it because I like it, but…’
I don’t think it would be a bad idea to give some light caution.
Of course, it’s not that I feel bad about receiving attention from others because I think it’s completely ‘mine’ like my kids.
It was just lip service to cheer up Choi Seol-ah.
Rattle-
“. Ah.”
As always, Choi Seol-ah came to the passenger seat and opened the door. She must have made eye contact with Lee Eun-seol, who was already sitting in the passenger seat, and she did so a beat later.
Even though you can see the outside clearly from the inside, the tinting was done so that you can barely see the inside from the outside, so you may not have seen Lee Eun-seol, but you might not have guessed that he was already sitting.
Anyway, Choi Seol-ah, who shared a brief look with Lee Eun-seol, closed the door again and went into the back seat and sat down.
“Mr. Minseok. How have you been?”
“Well, I’m always doing well. It hasn’t been that long since we’ve seen each other. What?”
“Still. Ah, Eunseol, it’s been a while too.”
“Yes, well. It’s been a while.”
Lee Eun-seol also greeted me in a calmer voice than when he greeted me.
Smiling inwardly at the subtle atmosphere between the women, she opened her mouth without forgetting the purpose of today.
“Eunseol, would you like to go to the back?”
“Huh? Why.”
“It seems like I’m discriminating if Eunseol is the only one sitting next to me. Also, the goal today is for the two of you to become friends.”
“. Okay.”
Although she was a little worried, she answered calmly, probably because she knew there was nothing she could do in the end, got out of the car, opened the back door, and sat down again.
“Then, let’s go eat first.”
Since we met at dinner time, we skipped the date and headed straight for dinner.
Of course, if I wanted to, I could kill time by going shopping, taking a walk, or watching a movie, but today I was planning on just eating and going straight to the motel.
The restaurant I made a reservation for is a high-end sushi restaurant that I have already visited several times.
There are many reasons why there are no differences in likes and dislikes, and it is easy to eat cleanly, but since I personally like sushi, it was a menu item I often chose during dates.
Now, even though I have tried many other delicious foods, I still think that the reason I still like sushi so much is that I was so deeply moved by the first time I ate sushi with Yoo Seo-yeon.
‘I think it’s more because I ate it while I was extremely exhausted.’
Nowadays, it’s normal for women to faint before I get tired, so that doesn’t happen, but back then, I also had limitations in my physical strength.
Even though he already had two women, he naturally thought of another woman and entered the store, and was guided to the room he had reserved.
Recently, omakase, where the chef selects the ingredients right in front of you, is popular, but in my case, I preferred to just order a set course and eat quietly in my room.
Simple conversation is okay, but I don’t like the flow to be disrupted during a meal.
“Please sit down.”
“”Yes.””
When I sat down and spoke naturally, both of them stopped coming next to me as if they had made an appointment, but then looked at each other and sat across from me.
It wasn’t the first time that two women had walked around together, but it was the first time that they had created such an overtly competitive structure, so even sitting down was fun to watch.
“For now.”
I opened my mouth lightly as I looked at the two people sitting quietly at a distance.
“Let’s summarize the situation.”
“What is the situation.?”
After waiting for a while to see the reaction, Seol-ah Choi cautiously asked back first.
He seemed quite relaxed until he got into the car, but now his expression showed that he was secretly nervous.
Last time we met, I received confirmation that there was nothing wrong with me, but I couldn’t help but feel nervous since I didn’t know exactly what the situation was.
“First of all, it’s true that things were exchanged between the two of you that I didn’t know about.”
“. Yes.”
This time, she turned her gaze towards Lee Eun-seol and asked, and she answered quietly, as if Lee Eun-seol couldn’t keep her mouth shut.
“I also don’t want to interfere with your private life. This has something to do with me as well. Is that okay?”
This time, neither of them responded, but only nodded slightly.
“First… Even though the two of you didn’t get along well, it wasn’t that bad, and I don’t think you had any contact. Why did you suddenly start drinking?”
She only confirmed what exactly she had been told by Lee Eun-seol. I have not yet heard how the drinking party came about.
This was because I was planning to have the two of them sit side by side and summarize the story.
“That’s… I contacted you first. It was a little late at the time, and I wanted to talk quietly, so I decided to go to a bar that had a room.”
“What are you going to talk about?”
“That.”
Choi Seol-ah’s cheeks turned slightly red as she asked for more details, and she continued as if she had no choice.
“Since I no longer have a sponsorship relationship with Minseok, I tried to contact him normally, but I didn’t know what to do, so I tried to listen to what Eunseol usually does and use that as a reference.”
Indeed.
She knew that Choi Seol-ah actively contacted Lee Eun-seol because she felt competitive with him, but she didn’t know that there was such a background.
I didn’t contact Choi Seol-ah to make her nervous.
It seemed like that nervousness went to the side of carefully exploring ways to contact me through Lee Eun-seol, rather than to the side of contacting me first.
“So?”
“So… At first, I just wanted to listen to the story, but Eunseol kept talking in a bragging way…”
“I just answered because you asked.”
Lee Eun-seol, who sensed that this was a story against her, cut off Choi Seol-ah’s words and intervened.
“You could have just told me in a normal way. You kept talking in a bragging tone.”
“I never thought about that.”
“Stop.”
Choi Seol-ah’s expression hardened slightly at Lee Eun-seol’s words, and she seemed to take it as if nothing had happened, so she interrupted the conversation and intervened.
Neither of them seemed to have any intention of getting into an argument while ignoring my words, so they quietly closed their mouths and remained silent as soon as they heard me tell them to stop.
“Mr. Eunseol.”
“Yes.?”
“Answer honestly. You really didn’t mean to brag, did you? Furthermore, you didn’t use that tone at all?”
“… There was.”
Be as firm as possible. However, when asked in a low voice, Lee Eun-seol flinched and shrank for a moment, then thought for a moment before answering honestly.
But, don’t you have any intention of just letting things go like this? He glanced at me and continued speaking.
“But, it’s not just me. Seol-ah first asked in a subtly aggressive way, asking if my frequent contact with Min-seok was actually bothering him.”
“Did you?”
Not only was I wrong, but he was also wrong. I internally laughed at the childish behavior of pointing out her friend’s mistakes in front of the teacher and turned my attention to Choi Seol-ah.
“… I’m a little jealous.”
Perhaps because it was confirmed that Lee Eun-seol received attention first, Choi Seol-ah also thought for a moment and answered honestly.
“So, after hearing Eunseol’s story, Seol-ah became jealous and spoke aggressively first, and Eunseol also got a little angry and spoke in a bragging manner?”
“I even boasted that I was now in a private relationship.”
Lee Eun-seol, who heard my summary, looked secretly and added.
Although he was proud and shameless, he probably wasn’t a tactless person. Choi Seol-ah’s expression hardened slightly as she saw her childishly tattling again. And,
“. Eunseol also spoke aggressively. Don’t you know why Minseok doesn’t meet a lover and only has a sponsor relationship? Shouldn’t he try harder?”
Unlike before, when I was observing her as she continued speaking little by little, she was calm and without trembling, and her pronunciation was also very clear and clean.
At the same time, the glances that were secretly directed towards Lee Eun-seol were also unusual.
What will happen if we encourage this further? Even as she was thinking that, she tried to open her mouth to calm down a little.
“Excuse me.”
She slinked open the door and began placing the side dishes brought by the employee on the table.
Even so, she couldn’t speak confidently in front of the staff, so she paused for a moment.
Meanwhile, the two people were repeatedly giving each other subtle glances, looking away, and then making eye contact again.
I was planning to call the two people together to find out the full story, punish Lee Eun-seol, and enjoy a light 3P game.
The situation was going more interestingly than expected.
