Chapter Index

    ***

    My heart sank as I wondered how he knew.

    But, so what? Why should I feel like I got caught cheating?

    As he spoke triumphantly from the other side, I felt a moment of cognitive dissonance.

    “Okay, whatever that is.”

    [Are you targeting him?]

    I was dumbfounded by the unexpected words.

    “What? No, how did you know I was watching the Lone Trainer broadcast before?”

    [If you register as a friend, you can find out what broadcasts they watch.]

    So we were friends? I didn’t know because I didn’t pay attention.

    Since I don’t do things like managing friend windows, I didn’t even know there was such a thing. Why is there such a thing as a friend function on an internet broadcasting platform?

    One of them must have thought he had grabbed my Achilles heel and spoke in a more lively voice than before.

    [Are you embarrassed because you got caught trying to be nice to the broadcaster and get his number?]

    “Not much? It’s not what you think in the first place.”

    [Ha, the dog stops pooping. Are you afraid that I don’t know you? Kang In-ho, who is horny and wants to sponsor female cams, get their contact information and meet them for a meal?]

    “…….”

    [If you’re human, have some shame. To be honest, I’ve taken a lot from my brother, but I’m honestly disgusted that he’s suddenly pretending to be clean and like something has changed.]

    “Your personality is coming out now. So, what do you want to say?”

    [Because I won’t tell her about my brother. give me some money Please support only until this year.]

    “I’m so confident that I have nothing to say.”

    [Well, it seems like we’re no longer in a relationship with each other. I’m talking business-wise. Because I won’t interfere with my brother’s work with her. Please lend me money only until this year.]

    When the seemingly pitiful strategy didn’t work, I was honestly impressed by her skill in switching to plan B and renegotiated.

    This is my first time experiencing something like this, and it feels like something surprising is happening every second.

    [This is the message my brother has been sending me so far… You don’t want others to see it, right? What woman would like such a message?]

    As there was no word from my side, one of them continued to flutter excitedly.

    [therefore. I’ll keep my mouth shut. Please help me instead. Close your eyes just once.]

    These days, I feel like I’m entering this dimension and seeing a lot of disgusting parts of humanity.

    “Phew….”

    [Are you going to do it?]

    One of them seems to have taken my long sigh as a sign of approval, and approaches me.

    “Get out.”

    […….]

    [You’ll regret it.]

    That was my last phone call.

    “Wow, my head hurts.”

    Perhaps because I was momentarily excited, my vision began to spin and the back of my neck became stiff.

    I threw my phone away from the desk and jumped straight into bed.

    I really can’t do this if my body is like this…

    Let’s get some sleep. I’m tired. It’s a hassle to even eat.

    ***

    The center is quiet today too. Garam was sitting at the desk and working.

    Her job is managing PT members.

    The only person eligible for PT was Inho, who was in Donghae, but she was seriously thinking about an exercise program.

    Since I heard the reason why In-ho went to Donghae, I had no choice but to skip all heavy exercise.

    Just as I was thinking about how much I should increase the number of repetitions to make up for the lack of strength training, my cell phone rang.

    “What is this?”

    It’s not a text message or KakaoTalk.

    When you press the notification, the Oceania TV app runs.

    Then a chat window appeared on the screen.

    >>Hana (hanazzing): Hello. You are a lone trainer, right?

    >>LonelyTrainer: Yes, who are you?

    >>Hana (hanazzing): Oh, my name is Hana, the broadcaster. Do you know anything?

    >>LonelyTrainer: No… I’m not sure.

    >>Hana (hanazzing): Oh, you don’t know^^ I had something to tell that lone trainer, so I DMed him.

    >>LonelyTrainer: Ah, yes. What is it?

    >>Hana (hanazzing): Do you know Kang In-ho? Or the idea of being the owner of a supreme building.

    Garam’s hand stops at the unexpected name.

    How does this person know the boss’s name?

    An inexplicable anxiety sprouted from the other side of my heart.

    >>LonelyTrainer: I know President Inho.

    >>Hana (hanazzing): Ah… Has he said anything yet?

    >>LonelyTrainer: What do you mean?

    >>Hana (hanazzing): Don’t you just say let’s meet or something like that?

    We see each other almost every day. Is there a need to meet separately? Garam muttered.

    When there was no answer from Garam, Hana sent her a series of chat messages as if warning her.

    >>Hana (hanazzing): I would like to give you some advice since you are just starting to broadcast.

    >>Hana (hanazzing): That person is a person who goes around supporting all the female cams, gets their contact information, and flirts with them. It’s kind of famous around here.

    >>Hana (hanazzing): You should be careful too. I also suffered a bit badly.

    Garam frowned and nervously pressed the keyboard.

    >>LonelyTrainer: I don’t know how you knew… but I think this is a personal issue.

    >>LonelyTrainer: Thanks for the advice.

    >>LonelyTrainer: But it’s a bit weird to talk behind someone’s back like this.

    ***

    “Okay then, shall we start broadcasting?”

    Hana, wearing thin pajamas, smiles brightly at the camera.

    She smiled brightly and scanned the chat window that came up.

    “Huh? Why is your expression dark? Oh well, I just have a lot to think about these days.”

    One who answers on his own when someone doesn’t even ask.

    As she starts to ramble and pause, the topics in the chat window begin to converge.

    “No, honestly, my ranking has been dropping lately. I have some business to pay back for doing business with him.”

    Then he looked startled and waved his hand.

    “Oh, well, I’m not looking at the Sugeumgak. really. really. It’s because I have strength. I should only show my good side, but I said I was too weak. I’m sorry.”

    As I close my eyes and bow my head, support comes in.

    One lowered the corner of his mouth deliberately and turned his gaze to the ceiling.

    “I tried various things to raise my ranking. It’s not working. These days, the power of other broadcasting stations is no joke.”

    >>Young man looking for Hakko: Now that I think about it, it seems like the chairman isn’t coming these days either?

    When the chat she wanted came up, Hana bit the chat like Jaws snatching a victim.

    “Ah, Chairman? That’s… um…”

    Viewers sensed something in Hana’s reaction and asked what happened.

    “Chairman… I have a bit of a misunderstanding with you.”

    >>Shooshshooshush: Misunderstanding?

    “I don’t think he’s coming to the broadcast because he heard bad things about me somewhere. But that’s all a lie…”

    >>Lazenka: ????

    “Ah, let’s stop here. The Chairman will come someday, too. Come on, let’s broadcast.”

    One broadcast lasted for four hours, and one showed the most enthusiasm and liveliness in recent times.

    After the broadcast ended, who was the person who leaked false information about Hana to the Internet broadcasting community? The rumor started going around.

    “So, who wants to mess with me?”

    Hana, who saw the embers slowly burning, smiled as she scanned the community bulletin board.

    If a broadcasting senior gives you advice, you should say thank you, but what is this?

    “Anything that bothers me, I have to destroy.”

    Hana muttered as she searched for another sponsor on her cell phone.
