I tend to like long-established restaurants and stores.

The cleanliness and crispness of a new store that has just opened is not bad, but old stores that have been in business for decades have their own unique charm.

Among them, I especially like old Korean buffets and Chinese restaurants…

Anyone who has ever been there probably knows this.

Enjoy the taste of home-made pork, a unique Korean buffet soup.

‘Put a lot of white rice on a wide plate…’

You scoop up all the broth and pour it on top of the rice.

The important thing is to just pour it on and not mix it.

Instead of rubbing it, use a spoon to scoop up the meat and the rice soaked in the red soup and shove it into your mouth, enjoying it as if you were eating pork rice bowl. When you feel thirsty, pick up the entire bowl of beef stew soup you received and take a sip, and finally, Kim Jaban. What if you sprinkle it over rice to finish it off?

Wouldn’t that be paradise?

‘Wow, sir…’

My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

If the Chinese restaurant’s jeyuk, which is made by adding a lot of onions and frying it over high heat, is not bad, then it is just like jeyuk made with its own soup.

Anyway, unlike Jeyuk, where you can easily find alternatives in Seoul, this is still the best Chinese restaurant for me.

There are many good Chinese restaurants in Seoul, but none of them tasted similar to this restaurant.

This was especially true for Jjambbong… Unlike most Chinese restaurants that use seafood and chicken stock as their broth base, this restaurant’s soup was made with pork as its base, so the broth was very thick and rich.

Should I say that if you add rice to the soup, the soup will not just seep into the grains of rice, but will stick to them?

Additionally, the noodles were hand-picked by the owner rather than the commercially-broken noodles that many Chinese restaurants use, so they were very chewy.

“Boss~ Are you there? I’m planning to place a group order.”

The reason I tried to place my order quickly was so that I could taste it as quickly as possible.

“i? What, aren’t you Suhyun?”

“Oh, do you remember me?”

“You didn’t come so much that I thought you had immigrated again~.”

“Ahaha…”

“Would you like to immigrate to the Middle East?”

“Yes?”

Why is the story of the Middle East suddenly appearing here?

I was confused, but the man who was wiping his hands on his apron leaned over the kitchen table and said,

“I thought it was because there were two sexy women next to me~.”

“Ah… Hey, what kind of sexy shirt are you wearing? This is Ari. Ari.”

It seems like it’s been a while since Ari has been here.

If I see you don’t recognize me.

‘but···.’

I heard that you lived in a dormitory for all three years of high school.

In addition, it had grown so much that I didn’t even recognize it for a moment.

“It’s a long way from being ready for food.”

“Yes?”

“No, I was talking to myself. Anyway, so this is a group order?”

“Yes, yes, I want to take the kids out to eat.”

Since I wrote down who is Jjambbong and who is Jjajang, should I just add a few pieces of sweet and sour pork?

Roughly speaking, there is one godson for every four people…

“Ariya.”

“Yes, brother.”

“How many children are there in the orphanage right now?”

“67… No, 68 people.”

“What about welfare teachers and staff?”

“Let’s see, today is Saturday… you four?”

Then, as a godson, I will make 18 rice cakes.

There will never be a shortage of food.

Of course, there is no one other than the director who knows the current state of the orphanage as well as Ari.

He is no different from the next director, so why bother?

Tell me what to do.

Ari was the director’s daughter.

If the orphanage is a castle and the director is the castle owner, should we say that Ari is like the princess of the family?

The reason why Ari and I, who were just young people, became like real siblings–

“What? Don’t plug it in quickly.”

“Yes?”

“Are you going to report your transfer to prison at this point?”

When I asked what it meant, I realized it meant calculating.

It seemed like it was because he was tapping the card terminal with his hand.

So I tried to take out my wallet right away…

‘···hmm?’

My hands didn’t move.

The same was true for the left side, which I had originally intended to move, as well as the right side.

It felt as if I was tied tightly with a rope or something.

Thanks to that feeling, I was able to realize it again.

The two of them are still hanging on my arms.

No, Ra-hee is the type of person who does whatever she wants. Even so, why is Ari still hanging around?

If he wanted to express his feelings because he was happy to see each other after a long time, I think hanging on for a moment at first was enough to convey that feeling.

‘No way, Ari!’

‘Are you trying to act as a sister-in-law to Ra-hee?’

It was a sudden thought, but I was overflowing with motivation.

It was worth it because after that incident, Ari followed me a lot.

Like I once did in front of Teacher Yumi, when I was a little kid who didn’t know anything, he held my hand tightly with his tiny hand and even made a very dark declaration like, ‘I’m going to marry you when I grow up!’

After he grew up to a certain degree, he must have realized how dangerous that statement was, so he started to listen to it, but he followed me after that.

My older brother, who I followed so well, showed up with his girlfriend for the first time in years.

Ari, wondering what she was doing, could only watch with caution.

I guess that’s why it’s like this…

‘cute.’

Ari is so scared that he trembles even in front of a small dog or cat, but it is cute to see Ari trying to maintain his composure in front of Ra-hee, who looks like a strong older sister to everyone, but hey, he still has to do what he has to do.

As the man said, I don’t want to get caught as a radio drunk.

That’s why I used both my arms to shake off Ahri, who was holding onto my arm tightly.

Surprisingly, it wasn’t easy.

Because my strength became incomparably stronger than before, I had to work hard to control my strength.

Still, thanks to my desperate efforts to control my strength, I was able to finish with Ahri slightly stumbling.

“Oh, brother?”

“I’ll do the math in a moment.”

I thought I heard a light click of the tongue and someone exclaiming in triumph from somewhere, but when I checked the direction the sounds in question were coming from, it seemed like I was mistaken.

“How can I take it myself?”

“Yes, yes, I will take it myself.”

*****

A delicious smell wafted everywhere.

It was a smell that was hard to bear for one reason or another, as the familiar taste was scarier.

“Well, then…”

First of all, we have to load the food.

Since there were so many sheep, it seemed like the trunk alone would not be enough.

“Ari, are you going to ride behind me?”

“Uh, huh?”

“Looking at it, it looks like it needs to be put in the back seat as well.”

I was planning to drive as carefully as possible because there would never be another disaster like that on a day when food spilled over, but the problem was that the road to the daycare center was a slope.

The slope was so steep that it was once called Panting Pass, so at least one person was needed to hold the box of food from the side to prevent it from tipping over.

So, I tried to entrust that noble role to Ari…

“Why? Are you afraid something will get on your clothes?”

“No, that’s not it…”

“It’s okay. Don’t bury it.”

It seems like he doesn’t feel like it.

So I was trying to persuade her in my own way, but Rahee, who was watching the situation, came between us.

“Okay, I’ll ride in the back.”

“Huh? You?”

“Just hold on to it so it doesn’t fall over, right?”

“Yes, but…”

“It’s nothing special.”

But before I could say anything, he opened the door to the backseat and got in there.

*****

What is this feeling of defeat?

Originally, I was planning on taking the passenger seat from that woman.

It might be easier said than done since you’ve probably been in that position the entire time, but if you say it well, my brother will definitely take your side.

By doing so, I planned to let that arrogant woman know who was more important to her brother and who had the upper hand.

Before I could do anything, I gave up my seat and retreated to the backseat.

‘no way···.’

Did you even read my thoughts?

So, did you decide to step down before you were embarrassed?

If so, it couldn’t have been anything but shocking.

I don’t like the way it looks, but it also means that it’s sinister on the inside.

‘···it’s annoying.’

What did my brother fall in love with about that woman?

There doesn’t seem to be anything that my brother would fall in love with, whether it’s the way he looks or the way he does things.

In the first place, what Soohyun oppa liked was long hair, not short hair.

I also preferred black hair to dyed hair.

Isn’t that actually why I worked so hard to grow my hair for several years?

But the fact that I’m dating a girl like that girl who has short hair, red hair, and doesn’t seem to have that many quirks…

‘That woman must have been vulgar with her body…!’

Huh, who knows that you can’t do something like that?

Just wait and see.

The unpleasant scent that was secretly coming from my brother, as well as the smell that is permeating the passenger seat where I am currently sitting, will be completely covered up with my own scent today…!

‘Well then, first of all…’

Should we try that first?
