Chapter 743 – Things Keep Getting Better?
In the end, Kang So-ra decided not to move hotels but to use the bathroom in the living room with Jin-seok Lee.
“If I ever use the bathroom, I lock the door, even if it’s just for minor reasons.”
“Good idea. “I’ll make sure to lock her down, even for something as simple as washing her hands.”
If someone else comes in while someone is inside, something big could happen, so the person who went in first promised to lock the door no matter how trivial it was.
But.
“Huh?”
Is there a need to put a lock on the bathroom door of a hotel designed for wealthy people to stay together?
Unfortunately, I couldn’t lock the door because the lock could cause problems.
“What do we do now?”
“Wouldn’t we have no choice but to knock before entering?”
“Ha… That’s the only way…”
Since we couldn’t lock the door, the only way was to knock and let each other know if there was someone inside.
‘I think it would be so embarrassing…’
If the door is locked, you might just think of it and go over, but shouldn’t you pretend to be welcome when you hear the knock?
It was a problem for two people of the opposite sex who did not know each other well to share a bathroom, but the bigger problem was that Kang So-ra was not immune to this.
This was incredibly embarrassing for her as she had never even had sex with a man before.
If nothing else, I felt like I couldn’t stand it if someone knocked on the door while I was going to the bathroom.
‘It’s something that can’t be helped…’
Still, you have to do it. Didn’t he already be rude to Lee Jin-seok once in order to steer the contract in a favorable direction?
I did that, but it was too much of a waste to back out now just out of shame.
For Kang So-ra, this contract was so important that her life at the company depended on it.
“Instead, let’s handle as much of the work that can be done outside as possible.”
“Like brushing your teeth?”
“Yes, it’s okay to do that much outside and then come back in for a bit.”
“I understand.”
So, the two set various conditions to prevent each other from experiencing embarrassing situations.
1. Always knock once when entering the bathroom.
2. Problems that can be solved outside should be handled outside as much as possible.
3. If it is truly an emergency, the person with more leisure time should contact the hotel and use a different bathroom.
4. Don’t use the bathroom too long and get everything done within 30 minutes.
In order to prepare for unexpected situations, I had no choice but to set quite a few conditions.
“I can be as careful as possible at this level. If there are any shortcomings, let’s fill them in later.”
“I think this is enough to prevent it.”
As we were careful not to cross the line, quite a bit of time passed just by setting the conditions.
We decided to be careful while staying here, so we finished our conversation and went to our rooms to do our own work.
————————-
After finishing the conversation with Kang So-ra, I entered the room and laughed silently alone in the room.
‘Very good!’
Even though we have set conditions to be careful while using each other’s bathroom, we won’t be able to get used to it anytime soon.
Originally, I just used it comfortably, but it’s quite difficult to quickly fix it.
‘Use the bathroom as little as possible.’
The current time was past afternoon and slowly approaching evening. In the meantime, I was planning to rarely use her bathroom to prevent her from adjusting.
If you don’t adapt, you are bound to make mistakes when you go to do errands in the early morning.
I decided to be careful not to let her get used to knocking, so I decided to prepare one thing in advance.
‘Even Kang So-ra shouldn’t go to the bathroom often.’
It was awkward at first, so she was likely to avoid using the bathroom.
Still, for perfection, you have to make sure you do your errands in the early morning when your guard is most relaxed.
For that purpose, what I came up with was an item that forcibly postpones the time to go to the bathroom.
[Physological regulation potion]
-This is an item that can delay menstruation when you have an urgent matter that prevents you from moving. It can be delayed for up to 6 hours.
This is a potion that prevents menstruation for 6 hours just by taking it once.
It is a drink that glows orange, so anyone can see that it is a safe drink.
I was thinking of giving this to her and drinking it together before going to her meal.
‘I guess I can’t eat it.’
Currently, Kang So-ra is in a situation where I feel quite guilty. Plus, he’s worked hard to build up his favorability, so he won’t refuse my favor.
So all I had to do was make it so delicious that it could never escape.
As time passed, and it was time to go for dinner, I, holding two drinks in my hands, knocked on the closed door to go eat with Kang So-ra.
“Sora, I’m going to go to dinner now. Is that okay?”
“Please wait a moment, I’ll be out soon.”
It’s okay to eat dinner alone, but it’s better to eat it together.
Kang So-ra, who was accustomed to always eating with someone at work, did not refuse.
-Squeak.
“Shall we go quickly?”
“Yes, let’s go. I’m starving.”
After getting ready, Kang So-ra asked me to come out and eat, and I deliberately filled her hand with a drink and told her that I was hungry.
Then she also saw the drink in my hand and asked what it was.
“Jinseok, what is that in your hand?”
“Ah… I bought this because I heard it was delicious when I went out earlier. “It’s a bit too much to eat alone, so I bought some conch seeds.”
“Mine too…?”
“If you don’t like it, I’ll eat it all.”
“No, it’s a gift you gave me, so I have to eat it. I will eat it gratefully.”
As expected, Kang So-ra did not refuse my favor and instead accepted it.
After the meal was over, we nodded to her saying that we would have dessert and headed to the buffet to finish a simple meal.
‘Wow… The food here is too salty.’
It was salty for lunch, and dinner was just as salty. The food was so salty that I drank a lot of water and felt like I was going to have to urinate right away.
Of course, this is no different from good news for me.
Even if she is in the bathroom in the late morning, Kang So-ra will not be able to suspect me at all, and she will not question me for going to the bathroom at dawn.
“The food here is a bit too strong.”
“That’s right, I think I didn’t fill my stomach properly because I ate less salty food.”
Most of the less seasoned types were salads with vegetables, so Kang So-ra felt full after eating mostly vegetables.
After eating dinner at the buffet and returning to the room, the salty taste still couldn’t be removed from our mouths, so we decided to drink the drinks I brought.
“Thank you, I will eat well.”
“Thank you, it’s just a simple gift.”
Listening to Kang So-ra saying that she would eat well, I first opened the cap of the drink and poured it into my mouth.
It was to show her that she was in no danger, in case anyone suspected her.
Fortunately, Kang So-ra seemed to have no doubts about my concerns and drank a drink with me.
“Uh…? Jinseok, where did you buy this? It’s so delicious!”
“I don’t know, I just bought it from a street vendor while walking around the hotel.”
“Is there one more? “It’s so delicious that I want to eat it again!”
“I didn’t know how it would taste, so I only bought two. “If you want more, I’ll go and get it tomorrow.”
“Ah… You don’t have to go that far…”
“Hey, I’m just going out for a walk and buying one, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
“Thank you…”
The potion that regulates menstruation was much more delicious than I expected.
I’ve tried the potion a few times before, so I thought it would taste good, but I never thought it would taste this good.
It had a subtle sweetness, like a real grated orange, and didn’t have an artificial taste, so it refreshed my mouth.
“Since I received such a nice gift, I will definitely find one for you too!”
“You don’t have to do that, I was lucky enough to find it.”
“No, I will definitely buy it for you.”
If you knew the truth, you wouldn’t really like the potion, but Kang So-ra, who mistook it for a drink, fell in love with the taste and seemed the happiest I’d seen her today.
It was a bit surprising to be happy with just a drink, but I decided not to worry about it since it was good anyway.
“Then I’ll just go to sleep. “It’s hard to get used to the time difference.”
“Yes, take a good rest.”
Using the time difference as an excuse, I said I was going to bed and went into my room and quietly waited for the potion to wear off.
—————————
Around the time when Lee Jin-seok entered the room and was watching Kang So-ra’s every move with the help of the system.
“Ugh…! It’s over!!”
Kang So-ra, who checked once again what was needed for the contract, finally finished work and prepared to go to sleep.
Fortunately for her, she was most satisfied in that she didn’t have to go to the bathroom during work today.
‘It’s better to go early in the morning.’
It is much better to go when everyone else is asleep than to go when the person you are with is awake.
Kang So-ra, who was most concerned about sound leaking out, relieved herself of the burden of having to go to the bathroom and fell asleep.
It was late at night when everyone was asleep.
“Ugh… Toilet…”
Kang So-ra woke up from a sudden urge to urinate and walked towards the bathroom in a half-asleep state.
The fact that her own room, her bathroom, was broken was so well ingrained in her mind that she was not mistaken and headed straight to the bathroom in her living room.
-Knock.
The moment Kang So-ra opened the door after knocking on the bathroom door and seeing that there was no response, even though she was not in her right mind, thanks to her constant reminder that she had to be careful.
-Squeak
“Huh…?”
“Oh…?”
When she heard a sound coming from a dark place and saw that there was a large object in front of her, she felt her mind go up.
She knows that there is only one person who will enter this place and that person is a man.
It was a fairly dark bathroom, but her eyes had already adapted to the darkness, and she was able to see enough to see who the other person was.
Something that is spouting out a cool stream of water, like a statue on the street.
“S-sorry!!”
Even if I wasn’t fully conscious yet, that wasn’t important right now.
Kang So-ra immediately apologized and closed the door, making it difficult for her to breathe due to her pounding heart.
‘I should have listened to the answer before going in!!’
She couldn’t hear anything when she knocked, and she was so relieved that no one would be there because it was early morning.
It was her own fault for not waiting a little longer because she was in a hurry.
When she was alone and suffering.
-Cheolkeok
“Ah… I’m sorry!!”
When the door opened and Lee Jin-seok appeared, she bowed her head again and apologized to him.
In her half-asleep state, she couldn’t even tell that she had made a mistake. He must be very ashamed just by being rude to someone of the opposite sex he doesn’t know very well.
So all Kang So-ra could do was apologize. What I’m worried about is that it’s so dark right now that I can’t see his expression.
Even though she made a huge mistake, she hoped that Lee Jin-seok would not be angry.
Although it was only a short time, the time I spent with him felt more comfortable than I thought.
