Chapter 750: Do Yehee’s Clumsy Plan (5)

After breakfast, it was a swimming pool date with Do Yehee, and after lunch, watching a musical performance.

Reaching this point, I gradually started to feel like I had a rough idea of what Do Yehee wanted from me.

‘Perhaps Yehee wants to go on a date with me.’

The fact that she deliberately rented a private pool just for the two of us to show off each other’s swimsuits, or intentionally chose a musical with slightly sexual elements, probably meant my guess wasn’t wrong.

Actually, I had caught on to some extent since she brought up the topic of a musical performance during lunch.

And even knowing that, I deliberately went along with it, because anyway, refusing Do Yehee’s date invitation when I owed her a favor seemed rather pointless.

Since it was a musical performed overseas, I was a bit flustered that it was naturally in English, but I could somehow understand it through translation thanks to Esilla.

When we came out after watching the long, nearly three-hour musical performance in that manner, Do Yehee’s face was flushed red, visibly so even at a glance.

“Seems like it was quite fun? You were watching with considerable concentration.”

“…Wh-, what are you talking about? I have no idea.”

“For someone saying that, your face is really flushed red. Earlier, during the silhouette sex scene between Christian and Anastasia, you were staring with such intensity as if trying to bore a hole through it…”

“Wh-, but you yourself seem rather excited? N-, now that I think about it, it might have been a bit stimulating for a man like you to see. Heh, heh.”

“Well? It was fun to watch in its own way, but if you ask if I’m still excited to that extent, it’s not really like that…”

I couldn’t deny that the musical Do Yehee showed me today was quite risqué in many ways. Although there was no direct nudity, there were quite a few scenes staged in a way that was virtually indistinguishable from the act itself.

Especially the scene at the end, where they made love as silhouettes, revealing only their body lines, was an erotic yet truly realistic and well-crafted scene.

Thanks to that, my imagination ran wild several times throughout the musical, causing my lower half to harden, but it wasn’t enough to maintain that excitement even after the performance ended.

Although I could somehow follow the content itself with Esilla’s help, in the end, I was still unable to overcome the language barrier until the very end.

When Esilla, who had been autonomously dubbing the musical actors’ lines, dubbed the heroine’s moans in the final scene with a robotic voice, honestly speaking, I almost burst out laughing rather than finding it erotic.

Trying to appease her after she momentarily sulked because of that incident, the latter half of the content barely registered, so I couldn’t really feel any lingering emotions.

「As I said once again, I did not feel any negative emotions because of that incident.」

‘Okay, I get it already.’

Anyway, my impression of the musical Do Yehee showed me was that it was passably entertaining.

If I could understand English a bit better, I could have been more immersed, but even watching it like this, I could still feel the fun sufficiently.

When I conveyed my impression of that content to Do Yehee, she immediately wore an expression of disbelief.

“Wh-, what did you say? You couldn’t understand it properly because you couldn’t understand English?”

“…It’s a bit different. I know how to speak English, but I can’t understand it all at once like a native speaker, so I listen while interpreting sentence by sentence. Still, I followed the content itself, so it’s fine.”

“Th-, that’s the same thing! If you couldn’t understand it as soon as you heard it, there’s no reason you should have chosen this performance…”

“I’m telling you, it was fun. It was just a bit difficult to immerse myself. If I didn’t know the content at all, it would have been a problem, but anyway, I understood the content sufficiently.”

“…….”

Somehow, I wondered if the ‘oops’ feeling emanating from Do Yehee’s face was just my imagination.

I couldn’t just reveal Esilla’s existence, so I tried to explain using the closest equivalent expressions, but I don’t know if my words were properly conveyed to her.

“…Then you could have just refused when you first suggested it.”

“Huh?”

“If you were going to understand the content with such difficulty… you could have just refused the offer I first made…”

“So what? It’s just that you asked me to go together, so I went.”

“…What?”

“I’m not so shameless as to complain even about the place you were taking me, considering I owe you a favor. And like I said earlier, I didn’t understand it with difficulty like you think. I’m telling you, the musical was fun. Was it ’50 Shades of Black’?”

“…It’s ’50 Shades of Grey’.”

“Right, anyway, that thing.”

…Was it just my imagination? Somehow, Do Yehee’s face seemed to have gotten a little redder than earlier.

Anyway, for a vacation that started so suddenly, it was a passably decent schedule.

More than anything, the very fact that ‘that’ Do Yehee was thinking of me and adjusting various schedules was quite a rare experience, so just that alone made today quite an enjoyable day for me.

Well, even saying this, there are still several hours left today, so the date seems like it will continue a bit longer.

It seemed a bit unfair to keep making Do Yehee think about the day’s schedule all along, so this time, I suggested a date location I had thought of myself.

“I have some free time until this evening. If you’re okay with it, want to go somewhere together with me for a bit until then?”

“…What? What are you saying all of a sudden…”

“Anyway, even in your situation, this date started suddenly, so it feels a bit unfair to just leave everything up to you. We should go visit the places I thought of too.”

“A, a date?! Wh-, what are you saying! T-, today isn’t exactly a date, it’s just that I… you…”

“Huh?”

“…Oh, no. Now that I think about it, it probably is a date. R-, rather, that would be better.”

I didn’t quite understand what she meant by ‘that would be better’, but anyway, Do Yehee also seemed to consider this time with me today a date, and it wasn’t too difficult to take her to the next place I had in mind.

Actually, the thought of wanting to bring Do Yehee here had occurred to me since the Three-Headed Basilisk subjugation battle last time.

That day, during the escape from the Three-Headed Basilisk’s attack, was the day I couldn’t help but notice the mage-type hunters like Do Yehee and Cha Yuri noticeably slowing down.

…It was a fleeting thought that they really needed some physical training.

“Come on, come on! Do Yehee! Just lift it one more time!”

“I, I can’t…! I, isn’t this enough now! Wh-, what the heck, how much longer do you plan to push me into suffering, you demon!!”

“Just do it one more time! Really, this is the very last time!”

“Th-, that statement too is already the third time…!!”

“If you do it just one more time, I’ll really let you rest!”

“…Sob, AAAAAAAARGH…!!!”

Letting out a yell close to a scream, Do Yehee stood up with an empty barbell draped over her shoulder.

Less than an hour had passed since entering the gym, but she was sweating profusely all over her body, groaning tiredly.

As expected, nothing beats squats for full-body physical training.

“Come on, come on! Just one more time! You can do it, Do Yehee!”

“B-, just now you said if I did this, you’d let me rest…”

“Really, this is the last time! The very last time!”

“…Grunt, Argh! AAAAAAAARGH…!!!”

And so, Do Yehee barely managed to collapse onto the floor only after finishing three more sets of empty barbell squats.

This is surprisingly fun to teach.

Do Yehee, whose body had been overworked for almost an hour in the gym she entered without much thought, following Seong Taekyung.

Not only did he give her personal training that was virtually torture, which she hadn’t even requested, but his noisy interference continued even at the dining table.

“What’s wrong, Do Yehee. You’ve just been picking at your food since earlier, don’t you have an appetite?”

“…Is that something you should say, shamelessly? You took all the energy out of my body, do you think I’d have an appetite?!”

“You still have to eat. If you don’t get proper protein intake after exercise, it’s all meaningless. Here, eat the pork neck steak first, and for the raw fish, preferably white fish…”

“Don’t pay attention to every detail of what I eat, focus on your own meal!”

Anyway, he was a strange man.

Even though he said he had trouble understanding English at once, didn’t he say he’d go watch the musical he suggested with me without hesitation?

Didn’t he say he felt bad about planning the date course just for himself, then suddenly drag me to the gym according to his own will?

Despite giving me personal training that overworked my body there, doesn’t he now interfere even with my meals as if he cares about me?

Even to Do Yehee, who lacked experience with men, it was clear that he was completely different from ordinary men in many ways.

A man whose charm was strangely captivating, diverging from the path of ordinary men.

Do Yehee now knew that although he seemed selfish, he always had consideration for others in his heart, and his occasional unkind or unpleasant actions were ultimately for the sake of the other person or someone else.

For instance, the time Seong Taekyung subdued me with violence, or the incident where he raped and humiliated me, were actually actions that burst out because he thought I was bullying Sihee.

Therefore, although clear malice was directed towards me for a while from the first meeting, after experiencing the time that malice turned into favor, Do Yehee started to think it wasn’t too bad.

She couldn’t understand at first why her younger sister, Sihee, had fallen for him, but reflecting on the time spent with him today, she could fully understand why…

‘Oh, no. What am I thinking…’

Reflecting on herself for almost harboring improper thoughts towards her sister’s man, Do Yehee obediently shoved the meal, composed mainly of protein, into her mouth.

Because she had decided not to take anything away from Sihee anymore.

If she unnecessarily developed improper feelings for him here, it wouldn’t be a forced confrontation like last time, but a situation where she’d have to compete seriously with her sister.

She had to think of this feeling she had towards Seong Taekyung now as a simple feeling of goodwill, an ordinary emotion felt because he wasn’t lacking enough to evoke liking as a human being to another.

…Thinking of it that way would probably be a little better for both herself and Sihee.

“Eating mainly protein is good, but you know you still need to consume minimal carbohydrates, right? But if possible, avoid flour. I saw earlier that there seemed to be quite a few dishes made with rice too. And vegetables…”

“I, I’ll handle it myself, so please focus on your own meal now!”

This feeling, felt for the first time in her heart, had to be just a simple feeling of goodwill.

A ridiculous story of sisters simultaneously loving one man would obviously have a bad ending, as clear as seeing through slime.
