Chapter 29 – Episode 29
How much will it cost after taxes? What do you do with your winnings? How much should I deposit? How much should I spend as pocket money?
I was imagining something happy.
“Did you do Toto too?”
Ji-seong Lee asked. Jinseong woke up from her thoughts.
“Yes I did. 100,000 won.”
“100,000 won each? Did you get it?”
“No? I didn’t get it. I lost it. Furthermore, I bought it after Gwangwoo, but it was completely ruined because of Tottenham. Oh, if only Tottenham had won, they would have won over 70 million won…”
I didn’t even put saliva in my mouth.
“Ha, I really did it for no reason. I did it out of curiosity, but ended up only wasting 100,000 won. “With that money, you can eat your fill of ribs and have enough money to go to the second round.”
I couldn’t bear to answer that I had eaten 45 million won.
I wanted to brag, but I held back because of Kim Gwang-woo’s feelings.
“I will never play Toto again. I would rather donate than play Toto. “It’s not fun, it’s not moving, and it’s empty.”
“Okay, don’t do that. “It is 100 times better to buy meat with the money you spent on Toto.”
Jin-seong and Kim Gwang-woo’s eyes met.
Kim Gwang-woo’s gaze wavered.
[Inner heart: Jinseong is right. Jisung is right. It’s better to buy meat with the money you spend on Toto.]
[Inner heart: I really shouldn’t do it. I really need to fold it.]
[Inner heart: If you play Toto again, you are not a real person.]
It was Kim Kwang-woo who had a firm mind.
Of course, Jinseong never believed it. Quitting Toto was not as easy as it sounds. You have to quit.
‘Well, we’ll see.’
I stopped paying attention.
I went to the bank during lunchtime. Received the correct amount.
[35,114,320 Won]
Taxes were deducted. He was able to receive approximately 35.1 million won.
‘It’s awesome.’
I couldn’t help but smile happily at the amount written on my bankbook.
‘The era of success is God. I’m invincible. Winning second place in the lotto, instant lottery, and even the Toto Jackpot!’
Thank you I will live a good life. I will write well. I offered a prayer of thanks to God again today.
Transferred.
[Deposit 33,000,000 won]
First, I transferred 33 million won to my savings account.
Adding up the savings account and savings account, the total was 48 million won.
‘Soon 5,000!’
It was just 200.
If we saved just 2 million won more, we would have reached 50 million won.
[Mother 300,000 won]
[Father 300,000 won]
[Little brother 100,000 won]
[Little Sister 100,000 Won]
He then transferred pocket money to his family.
1.31 million won left.
‘I’ll have to write the rest.’
The liver got bigger.
In the past, I would tremble at just 10,000 won.
I reduced my pocket money of 350,000 won to 250,000 won because it was too much.
I had the intention of spending more than 1 million won without any thought.
‘Great. I was short on pocket money…’
There was little pocket money and many places to spend it.
I had to give back to Park Man-bok.
I had to go to Everland with Choi Ayoung.
Sooner or later, you may have to pay for television.
I also had to buy Park Ha-yeon a drink.
A gift was essential to win a woman’s heart.
I lost weight and had to buy new clothes.
I also wanted to buy sportswear.
‘Honestly, my diet was also burdensome.’
I was under pressure.
When I only ate eggs and bananas, it didn’t cost much.
From the existing diet.
When I added soy milk, chicken breast, and sweet potatoes, the cost soared.
1.31 million won.
It was the sweet rain in a drought. I need to use it sparingly.
∴∴∴
I left work.
‘I’m hungry.’
I ate boiled sweet potatoes and soy milk.
‘Could it be false hunger?’
I just couldn’t get my hands on eggs and bananas. Just looking at it made me narrow my eyebrows.
I ate it for over 2 months and got bitten. I don’t think I’ll even pay attention to it for a while.
I took a shower.
‘I have to wash up and go shopping.’
I left the dormitory.
I bought clothes. He bought winter padding, neat casual clothes, socks, underwear, underwear, and sportswear.
‘It’s too expensive.’
I spent 610,000 won on clothes alone.
Even though I bought the most cost-effective items, I was charged a large amount of money.
It’s really hard to make money, but I don’t know why it’s so easy to spend it.
‘I need to get my hair done.’
I went to the beauty salon. A hair salon I visit regularly after a long time.
“Welcome.”
The owner welcomed me warmly.
“Please sit down.”
“Yes.”
“Is this your first visit to our hair salon?”
“Yes?”
“Isn’t this your first time? “Is this your first time meeting you?”
“… ?”
The boss tilted his head.
[Inner heart: Isn’t it?]
[Inner thoughts: It feels like this is your first time here? You look familiar?]
[Inner mind: But why is the voice so familiar?]
A regular hair salon that I have visited more than 15 times.
The female boss did not recognize Jinseong at all.
[Likeability: 50]
[Inner heart: You look good. He seems to have a similar personality.]
[Inner thoughts: You look young. I am of reasonable weight, good-looking, and neatly dressed.]
[Inner thoughts: Your hair is gorgeous. However, it is thin and gives an empty feeling. I think I need to grow some hair, right?]
Jinseong realized two things.
One is lookism.
When I was a pig, my favorability rating for the female boss was only 13.
Just(?) My appearance changed a bit and my likeability rating started at 50.
Both are aware of changes in appearance.
‘I have changed.’
In a short period of time. So much so that I don’t even know it. In a very good direction.
Satisfied.
The diet was worth it. It is worth investing in a good-looking potion.
And.
‘I need to work hard to increase my hair.’
I wanted to become a Poongsang Man.
To be honest, I was more concerned about my sparse hair than being short.
‘However… I need to grow taller too… The size of the peppers needs to be bigger… Increase your luck… Your skin needs to be improved too…’
There was more than one thing to do.
“It looks much better after trimming it.”
“Thank you.”
I looked in the full-length mirror.
The difference before and after trimming was clear. I feel like I am at least 3 years younger. He seemed to be at least 30% more handsome.
I was very satisfied.
‘Now all I have to do is go to the supermarket and buy groceries and a gift set, then go to the bookstore and buy the book Myungho recommended.’
It was busy.
I finished shopping. I brought my luggage to the dormitory.
I went to the gym. Park Man-bok welcomed me with a bright smile.
“Are you later than usual today?”
“I was doing some shopping. Take it.”
“What is this?”
“Thank you for helping Ayoung.”
What Jinseong gave to Park Manbok was a luxurious Korean beef gift set. It was the highest quality Korean beef and cost a whopping 330,000 won.
“Why are you giving me all this?”
“Thank you. Thanks to the boss, Ayoung was able to be safe. “If the boss hadn’t helped her, she would have been in big trouble.”
“What about gratitude? Since I’m a human being, I just did what was natural. “I will gratefully accept your gift.”
Park Man-bok accepted the gift.
[Likeability: 90]
[Inner heart: I’m happy. Helping people, receiving thanks, and even receiving luxurious gifts like this.]
[Inner thoughts: Thank you, but I need to get you some health drinks. I need to teach you some exercise methods that are good for dieting.]
Uh? You don’t have to give me any health drinks…
I was forced to drink health drinks. I forced myself to drink it. I shook it off without leaving a single drop.
‘It’s so tasteless.’
Ha-yeon Park was nowhere to be seen. Looks like he’s busy with exams.
I missed Park Ha-yeon. I also want to see Choi Ayoung.
※※※
I lay down on the mattress.
[Hayeon Park: Are you free on Friday night?]
[Hayeon Park: I was supposed to meet a friend on Friday, but it was canceled.]
[Hayeon Park: How about meeting up after exercising and having a quick drink?]
[I like. Let’s meet on Friday night^^]
[Hayeon Park: What is your reaction? Why are you so lukewarm?]
[Park Ha-yeon: It’s a drinking party with a beautiful woman, shouldn’t you like it more?]
[Park Ha-yeon: And please refrain from smiling ‘^^’. You look old.]
[Me: Are you dancing with joy? Haha,]
[Me: My heart is shaking at the thought of having drinks with a beautiful woman.]
[Me: ^^ Do you look old? Should I change it to ^___^ now? Or with ^ㅗ^?]
[Park Ha-yeon: No haha, testimony haha, you idiots, haha]
[Park Ha-yeon: ^^ or ^___^ or ^ㅗ^ all look old?]
[Hayeon Park: I will give you an emoticon as a gift, so use an emoticon.]
I received an emoticon as a gift. Even two of them.
[Me: I hope it’s Friday soon]
[Me: I want to drink with you.]
[Park Ha-yeon: Did you just think of something gloomy?]
[Park Ha-yeon: Did you think I would do something bad after making you drink?]
[Me: Oh, you’re talking about big trouble.]
[Me: You didn’t think of that?]
Actually I did. I imagine doing dirty things with a drunk Park Ha-yeon.
Then, I had a KakaoTalk chat with Choi Ayoung.
[Ayoung Choi: I’m so tired]
[Ayoung Choi: Ah, I finally went to bed after finishing my part-time job.]
[Ayoung Choi: What is the self-proclaimed Tekken idiot doing?]
[Me: It must have been difficult. Thank you for your hard work.]
[Me: I lay down to sleep too.]
[Me: No? Who says Tekken is a bastard?]
[Ayoung Choi: Huh? No? Are you going to float?]
[Me: ㅠㅠ Yes, that’s actually true. I am a self-proclaimed Tekken bastard.]
[Me: I’m not playing Tekken with you. It’s boring because I can’t even hit one.]
[Ayoung Choi: haha]
[Ayoung Choi: Mr. Heojeop is cute haha]
[Ayoung Choi: Cuter than Mr. Charmander]
[Ayoung Choi: Mr. Heojeop, Mr. Heojeop♡]
[Ayoung Choi: Do you want to call us?]
[Ayoung Choi: I’m bored. Please play.]
[Me: ㅇㅋ call]
I called Ayoung Choi.
“Ayeong, please, can you stop using the word Mr. Heojeop?”
– You’re Mr. Heojeop, right?
“…”
I couldn’t refute the facts.
– Hehe, I understand. Okay. I won’t do it because you’re a poor person.
These days, the frequency of phone calls with Choi Ayoung has increased.
From trivial stories.
– I received a confession from a customer at my part-time job today.
“So?”
– I refused. He said he was meeting someone.
“Aha.”
– I wish you wouldn’t confess. Too burdensome to rent.
-Excluding my brother. I’ll think about my confession.
Even deep stories.
– I hope I make a lot of money.
– I want to live without worries.
– But I don’t know how.
We have become close enough to talk on the inside.
※※※
It’s a day to drink with Park Ha-yeon.
