Chapter 76 An Ex-Girlfriend Trying to Get Him Drunk

Eun-ha, who wanted to get confessed to by Si-woo again, actually considered this matter very simple.

Because Eun-ha was confident about seducing Si-woo.
Her attractive self who lacked nothing, with overwhelming ability as S-class Rank 1 and supplementary qualities like wealth, looks, popularity, etc.

Plus the history of Si-woo loving her for 7 years in the past.

And above all, she didn’t feel any hatred from Si-woo toward her.

Therefore, when she asked to eat together, he must have followed without hesitation.

She thought the possibility of reuniting with Si-woo was very high.

So, if she just gave Si-woo a little push, she would quickly get his confession.

But…

Eun-ha’s thinking was mistaken.

“Si-woo… don’t you have anything to say to me?”

“Hmm… not really?”

“Really nothing?”

“Ah…! There is one thing.”

“What is it? Tell me quickly…!!!”

“Thanks for treating me to the meal.”

“Ah… uh… right…”

Why won’t he confess to me at all?

Eun-ha didn’t get a confession from Si-woo.

Far from getting a confession, Si-woo was just eating deliciously as if he had no interest in Eun-ha at all.

As if he had no interest whatsoever…

‘He’s already finishing all the food…’

30 minutes had already passed since Eun-ha and Si-woo entered the Japanese restaurant.

Soon Si-woo started finishing the food, and now the meal was coming to an end.

Originally in Eun-ha’s plan, during the meal time, when Si-woo started asking various things about her, she would continue the conversation by giving him some opportunities then.

But no matter how much time passed, Si-woo didn’t do that.

Therefore, Eun-ha couldn’t help but get increasingly anxious.

‘Why won’t he confess…’

At this point, she had to question her strategy.

So Eun-ha felt the need to think about this problem again.

She had clearly tried to appeal to Si-woo throughout the meal.

She asked if he had a girlfriend and countless other questions.

By now he should notice and it should be time to confess to her.

But Si-woo didn’t confess to her at all.

Eun-ha thought about the reason but couldn’t easily find an answer.

‘He’s not someone lacking awareness…’

Si-woo isn’t someone lacking in awareness to think that way.

After all, he had excellently served as her secretary at Frozen Heart.

Eun-ha wasn’t unaware of that.

But still, the fact that he showed no interest in her at all…

‘Could it be he has absolutely no romantic feelings for me?’

The only conclusion was that he didn’t see her as a romantic partner.

Reaching this conclusion, Eun-ha couldn’t help but have anxious thoughts.

Could it be that Si-woo no longer felt any interest in her as a woman?

Such ominous thoughts began to dominate Eun-ha’s mind.

‘No… it’s okay.’

But Eun-ha didn’t give up.

— — —

‘Almost finished eating.’

My ex-girlfriend whom I met after a long time and I enjoyed our meal while making various small talk.

About an hour passed and now there was no food left on the table.

The end of the meal was approaching.

‘I’m full.’

And I was very satisfied.

A feast of flavors pleasing to mouth and stomach, indeed this Japanese restaurant was always delicious no matter when.

I couldn’t come here after breaking up with Eun-ha, but it was really nice coming after so long.

‘This kind of thing isn’t bad either.’

So I think following Eun-ha was a good decision.

Though I didn’t know she would bring me here specifically, I think it was really unexpected luck.

Indeed my intuition seems quite accurate.

‘She’s treating me to a meal probably out of gratitude.’

I roughly guessed.

Why Eun-ha suddenly treated me to a meal.

The reason must be her way of showing thanks.

When Eun-ha was living such a destitute life, I helped her whenever I saw her.

Though she might not have been so grateful when receiving help at the time, it was clear she was trying to repay that now.

Though I didn’t help expecting repayment.

But if she was giving repayment, there was no reason to refuse either.

‘She’s become much kinder.’

And receiving repayment felt quite fresh.

Thinking that Eun-ha had really changed a lot.

I even felt slight admiration looking at Eun-ha.

The past Eun-ha was a woman who knew nothing of gratitude, but certainly people seem to change somewhat after hardship.

Somehow it felt admirable that such a selfish Eun-ha now knew how to be generous.

“Eun-ha. Thanks for the meal. I ate well.”

“Huh…? Oh…”

I stood up from my seat with a pleased heart.

Along with some words of thanks to Eun-ha.

“Then I’ll be going now.”

I’m thinking of heading out now.

Though I don’t particularly have anywhere to go, but the meal was done and there was no reason to stay here anymore.

I’m thinking of going home and relaxing while watching YouTube.

“W-wait.”

But Eun-ha stopped me.

“Hm? Why?”

“Um… well…”

She seemed to have something to say.

And after thinking for a while.

“Would you like some eel? Want to eat eel before you go?”

Eun-ha spoke to me as if something occurred to her.

“Eel…?”

I was startled at the mention of eel.

Because the word eel was too tempting.

“Yes. Since you’re here anyway, eat that too before going.”

As someone who had eaten eel at this Japanese restaurant before, I couldn’t refuse this offer.

This place’s eel goes down smoothly even when you’re full, and after eating one you want two – it’s like a dream menu.

And she’s telling me to eat that before going…

“You’ll buy me eel too?”

“Yes. I’ll buy it. Since you’re here anyway, let’s eat.”

“Okay.”

Anyway, it was too difficult to refuse so I had to accept.

Well, might as well eat a bit more before going.

“And Si-woo. Let’s drink too.”

“Drink? Hmm….”

Eun-ha somehow seeming happy hearing my words.

And then making another proposal.

‘But I can’t taste alcohol…’

To repeat, I can’t drink alcohol because I have the Hero’s body.

A body that purifies all poisons, naturally alcohol was no exception.

So I hesitated whether to say I couldn’t drink but.

“Sure, let’s drink.”

That seemed like it would kill the mood so I agreed.

Think about it. How unseemly would it be to say you won’t drink when close friends are drinking together.

So I had to be appropriately considerate here.

‘I can just drink it like water.’

It wasn’t particularly difficult.

— — —

Eun-ha couldn’t help but feel gloomy for a moment.

‘He doesn’t like me…’

Because Si-woo didn’t show even a hint of interest in her.

Si-woo’s attitude toward her, this emotion that was neither affection nor hatred was indifference.

Si-woo had no interest in her at all.

Realizing this fact, Eun-ha couldn’t help but feel discouraged.

‘Haah…’

The fact that the love of a man who had loved her for 7 years had cooled – though Eun-ha hadn’t particularly valued that love in the past.

Now seeing the indifferent attitude from the man who had always loved her, Eun-ha felt complicated.

Moreover, now Eun-ha was the one wanting to hear a confession from Si-woo.

In this situation, Si-woo not liking her certainly wasn’t good news.

She might not be able to get a confession.

‘No, it’s okay…!’

But Eun-ha didn’t give up.

As mentioned before, Eun-ha was confident.

‘I just need to make him like me again.’

It was a very simple matter.

If he didn’t like her, she just needed to make him like her.

Just as Eun-ha had experience being loved by Si-woo in the past, she just needed to be loved again this time.

And that wasn’t difficult for Eun-ha.

‘I’ll feed him eel, get him drunk, then take him to a motel.’

Eun-ha who knew Si-woo very well.

Eun-ha knew that Si-woo really loved eel.

Si-woo really dies for eel.

Moreover, Si-woo is really weak to alcohol.

He loses his mind after just a little drink and doesn’t know what he did.

Alcohol is one of Si-woo’s few weaknesses.

So.

She just needed to use eel as bait, get him drunk, and take him to a motel.

‘Then we can naturally date after having sex.’

And do what Eun-ha and Si-woo had always done at the motel.

Then Si-woo would definitely confess to her.

It was really a very simple matter.

She had actually seduced Si-woo this way before.

And it shouldn’t be different now either.

Eun-ha was certain Si-woo would get drunk and go to a motel with her.

‘You’re in the palm of my hand anyway.’

Just like the day 7 years ago when Eun-ha got Si-woo’s confession.

Eun-ha started feeding Si-woo eel and alcohol.

While smiling brightly.
