After finishing the movie, I left in a good mood.

I asked her confidently.

“What do you want to eat?”

If it’s Gangnam, I’m holding on tight.

Thanks to the Guild House being built here after the restoration of the destroyed Gangnam area, I’ve been to just about every restaurant.

Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Western food, etc.

As long as she has the food she wants, she can show it the best taste.

Of course it will cost a lot of money.

“Oh, I can eat anything.”

The world’s scariest words came out.

“They say ‘anything’ is the scariest word in the world.”

When I said it jokingly, she waved her hand urgently with a surprised look on her face.

“Oh, no! It’s because I’m really good at eating just about anything… .”

Yoon Ji-an, who must have thought that I had truly misunderstood, quickly became tearful.

I find it cute that she reacts so sensitively to every word I say, but it also makes me a little embarrassed.

Even though people change, it seems like they have changed too much.

“Aren’t you taking the joke too seriously?”

“Oh, you were kidding… .”

She lets out a small sigh of relief.

“Anyway, tell me anything that comes to mind. “I will take you to the most delicious place.”

“Ah, then… “Actually, there is a place I want to go.”

Have you already searched for the place you want to go?

“Where is it?”

“that… , This is a Japanese restaurant recommended by an acquaintance.”

“Oh, really? Then let’s go there.”

It’s a bit unfortunate that I can’t show off the restaurants I know a lot about, but today is the day she’s the star.

If you’re already spending money, it would be better to spend it in a way that satisfies her the most.

“Is it far from here?”

“No, about 5 to 10 minutes walk… ?”

“Then let’s park the car here and walk.”

“yes.”

I went out through the first floor lobby and started walking slowly.

The streets of Gangnam I walked for the first time in a long time were the same as usual.

Most people walking around are divided into two groups.

A hunter wearing gear or a rich person decked out in expensive luxury goods.

The former is because the guild houses of large guilds are concentrated here, and the second is because Gangnam is the wealthiest town in Korea.

The restoration of the destroyed Gangnam was carried out quickly.

It was the result of a large number of awakened people involved in all kinds of life skills.

The newly restored Gangnam has become a more expensive land than before.

Not only were all the buildings equipped with protective magic, but all the large guilds mentioned above were flocking here.

In other words, it is consistent with the saying that Gangnam has become the safest place in Korea.

Thanks to this, land prices soared through the roof, and the people who already owned land in Gangnam were all rich, but they became even richer.

And it wasn’t just Gangnam where land prices soared.

Most of the constituencies adjacent to Gangnam were absolutely perfect.

The reason is of course that it is close to Gangnam.

This caused a chain reaction, so in fact, the land price in the entire constituency corresponding to Seoul rose slightly.

“that… “The weather looks really nice.”

While I was walking, completely intoxicated by the leisurely scenery, a person spoke to me from next to me.

I think the silence that fell between us was a little burdensome.

This is also my mistake.

I was so absorbed in the scenery with the woman walking next to me.

“Iknow, right. “It feels so good to walk.”

Even now, let’s talk in a way that is as painless as possible.

“Aren’t you busy with work these days?”

“Yes, thanks to the manager’s help, the amount of work assigned has been greatly reduced.”

At the same time, she makes a slightly sullen expression.

“But Mr. Do-jin hasn’t been looking for me either, so what can I say these days…” , I felt like I was abandoned on a remote island… .”

“ah.”

The reason her workload was reduced was to support me more carefully.

But when I stopped looking for her, I felt empty.

“sorry. But I feel a little sorry when I call Jian over something trivial.”

“Not at all!”

It’s a surprise.

Yoon Ji-an suddenly raises his voice and answers.

She must have realized that my voice was a little loud, so she immediately blushed.

“Well, what I’m saying is that it doesn’t matter if it’s something trivial, so I’d like you to call me… .”

“Is it really even a trivial thing?”

“Yes, whatever.”

“What if I just ask you to take me home after class?”

“That’s good too… , No, it’s okay.”

Even though the request seems annoying and hurts her pride, she happily responds that it is okay.

On the contrary, looking at the happy expression on his face, it seems as if he is not happy because something has happened, but rather just wants to see me or do something to help me.

I’m not sure which one it is.

While we were talking, we turned from the main street into a slightly narrow corner.

Rows of high-end restaurants began to stand out.

About 80% of them have been there.

In the past, when I moved to a new home here, I enjoyed going around with my guild members every lunchtime.

“Here we go.”

As she entered the alley, she walked one step ahead and stopped and pointed to a store.

A building that harmoniously mixes modern and Japanese styles.

I remember the name of the store as Yuki, a word that means snow in Japanese.

It’s a place that didn’t exist even when I was in and out of this place.

“It’s been a little over a year since it opened, and it’s well-known for its delicious food.”

“Oh, really?”

“yes! “Then shall we go in?”

I followed her, opened the door, and entered.

The impressive interior, with its warm wooden atmosphere under soft lighting, comes into view.

“welcome. “Have you made a reservation?”

In response to the employee’s question, Ji-an Yoon glances at me and speaks in a low voice.

“Yes, that…” , make a reservation with Jian Yoon… .”

“… … ?”

You said it was a place you wanted to visit, and you even made a reservation?

“Your reservation has been confirmed. “I will show you to your room.”

I followed the staff member into a small room with a table for four people.

“Please call me after choosing the menu.”

An employee leaves after speaking.

I sat down on the chair and asked Yun Jian.

“Did you make a reservation?”

“Yes, actually, I made a last-minute reservation last night.”

They say it as if they are sorry, but I don’t know why they do that.

“I was going to buy Jian what he wanted to eat anyway, so it doesn’t matter that I made a reservation… , And then what if I say I don’t want to come here?”

“Back then… , I had to leave for a moment to go to the bathroom, so I was going to call to cancel my reservation… .”

Should I call this stupid or considerate?

“From next time, if there is something you want to do or eat, please tell me clearly. “Even if you disagree with me, our relationship won’t worsen just because of that, right?”

Her face turns slightly red when she hears what I say.

“Uh, between us… .”

I wondered where it was stuck, and it was there.

I liked the response so I added a little more.

“Jian decided to support me, so we have to see each other for a long time now, even if we don’t like it, right?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“So, I hope we can see each other for a long time and get to know each other closely.”

“Close… Yes, I think it would be better if we stayed close too… Wow, it’s the same.”

While speaking, the corners of the mouth twitch up and down as if they are making waves.

Is it because they tried to forcibly block the natural upward movement that caused it to look like that?

“Let’s choose the menu first.”

We stopped talking and chose the menu first.

The menu was varied, but since I wanted to try all of them together, I just ordered the most expensive course.

Did you say a Japanese course meal is called omakase?

We also ordered a bottle of sake.

When I eat Japanese food, I feel bad if sake is missing.

“Jian, are you going to drink it too?”

“that is… .”

Yoon Ji-an thinks for a moment.

I thought it would be difficult to drink it because of the tea, so I was going to say that I didn’t have to drink it.

“I’ll drink it too!”

She struck first.

Well, actually, it would be enough to just call Chaya as a substitute.

“Excuse me.”

One by one, food started coming out.

A salad filled with thinly sliced fried lotus root and abalone.

Abalone salad is just a salad with abalone in it, but the fried lotus root was more special than I expected.

“Would you like a drink?”

“yes… !”

She holds out her glass vigorously.

I feel like there is some unknown, determined will.

I poured alcohol into her glass and was about to pour it into mine, when she reached out her hand.

“I will follow you.”

“thank you.”

Two filled drinking glasses.

“Let’s toast, let’s do it.”

“yes. I hope to go along well. and… “Even if it’s just a small thing, I hope to see you often.”

“all right. “I will bother Jian as much as possible.”

“yes… !”

Clink the glasses lightly and pour in the sake.

Soft and clean taste.

I also ate thinly sliced fried lotus root lightly dipped in soy sauce, making it the perfect accompaniment to drinks.

“Let’s have another drink.”

“… Ah yes.”

This time she offered me a drink first.

How long has it been since you drank it? .

Do you usually drink quickly?

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Dobinmushi with various seafood and seasonal raw fish.

Fried shrimp and seasonal vegetables.

Even sushi made from various fish.

As I tasted a full course meal of Japanese cuisine and drank alcohol in a pleasant mood, I became quite drunk.

But a problem arose.

“Jian, are you okay?”

“It’s okay… .”

Yoon Ji-an was drunk.

That’s a bit much too.

From the beginning, I thought the alcohol must have been very strong because every time I emptied my glass, I immediately refilled it, but it wasn’t.

If you were going to get that drunk, why did you try to drink it so quickly?

My head spins round and round, unable to stop in just one place.

Her eyes turn to me.

“Written by Dojun… .”

“yes?”

“You said it earlier… . I told him there was something I wanted to do… .”

“I did.”

“I thought about it. And rest… .”

I suddenly became curious.

Why do you have such a hard time getting the words out while you’re drunk?

So I asked with a smile on my face.

“So what do you want to do?”

“that… , I would like to see.”

“You want to see it? what?”

“that… .”

What on earth is that?

“go… , go… .”

go?

“go… congrat… .”

Quadang!

“… … .”

There are two ways to make people angry, one is to stop talking and the second is… .
