​

​

​

We decided to proceed with the rest of the story while moving.

​

Olivia held my hand and walked somewhere. I’m probably going to the place where I parked my car. the problem is…

​

​

-Moyamoya

-Why are you two so close?

-You hit the hand of a stranger like that…

-Unfamiliar feeling of being led.

– Is that really the first time you met after saving me?

​

​

“… Olivia is also a viewer of my broadcast, so I guess she got used to it. Isn’t this inner intimacy something that comes from growing up?”

​

We are currently broadcasting live.

​

I raised the angle of the smartphone I was holding so that only my face was visible. But for the viewers’ imagination to work, it was enough for her to disappear from the screen in the lead and me to see myself being dragged away by something.

​

“Hey Olivia… ”

​

“Call me Liv. All my friends call me that.”

​

“… live. I don’t think there’s any need to hold hands.”

​

“I don’t like it?”

​

At that moment, she stopped moving and spoke in a quiet voice. I couldn’t tell what kind of expression he was making because he didn’t look back and had his back to me.

​

“No, it’s not that I don’t like it. If you appear too close to me on air, you may suffer harm… ”

​

“It’s okay as long as you don’t like it. What’s wrong with this? Rather, people say that if you lose too much, you are unattractive?”

​

Luckily, Olivia wasn’t offended, and there was a smile on Olivia’s face as she looked back at me.

​

“And Minho wasn’t controversial, on the contrary, he did something heroic, so who would look at him negatively?”

​

​

-ㄹㅇㅋ

-lol

-Lee Min-ho (not attractive) haha

-Now I’m even swayed by kids haha.

-Why didn’t I have a friend like that in high school?

-There are fewer people who have it haha.

-Ah, only people who can speak English laugh at me ㅠㅠ

-Please add subtitles quickly, biometric translator brothers.

​

​

“… … .”

​

For no reason, I said the wrong thing and got beaten up by Olivia and the viewers. Korean viewers initially had a hard time following the conversation in English, but soon some of them began interpreting the words they heard in real time. Then, complaints about not being able to understand the conversation quickly decreased.

​

When I arrived at the parking lot, I saw a person who appeared to be the driver waiting next to the car.

​

“Are you here?”

​

“Nothing happened, right? Minho, this is Devin, who takes care of various tasks around our house. Devin, this is Minho.”

​

“This is Devin Milford. nice to meet you Mr. Lee.”

​

“Just call me Minho, Mr. Milford.”

​

“Devin is enough for me too.”

​

Devin was a brown-haired man with a thin build. I don’t see foreigners often, so I can’t be exact, but he seemed to be roughly in his late 30s.

​

​

-Wow, Olivia looks like she’s from a very rich family.

-Is there a driver too? thief

-More like a butler than a knight.

-Well, I think you said you also do other things.

-I’m looking forward to seeing what the house will be like haha.

-That car is also very expensive.

​

​

Buzzing~

​

Now, I naturally ignored the viewers who were making a fuss and got into the car.

​

“It will arrive in about 40 minutes.”

​

“It’s not that far, right?”

​

“Yes, and the road from the airport to downtown San Francisco is well maintained.”

​

As expected, as he said, our car soon started running on the eight-lane highway. Devin didn’t stop explaining as he drove, as if he were a tour guide.

​

“The area we are passing through now is the Bay Shore Expressway. The sea you see on the right is San Francisco Bay. It is where the Sacramento River and San Joaquin River meet before flowing into the Pacific Ocean.”

​

“Oh… ”

​

The San Francisco Bay seen outside the window was so wide that it almost looked like the ocean.

​

There was a vague view of what seemed to be Auckland on the other side of the bay, but that was only because it was within a short direct distance from us. As the distance grew deeper into the bay, all I could see was the horizon instead of land.

​

Unlike Jeong Soo-jin’s father’s house, which was located in a remote place, Olivia’s family’s house was located in the center of the city.

​

According to Devin’s explanation, the neighborhood called Pacific Heights, or Pacific Heights, was a famous wealthy neighborhood in San Francisco.

​

“It is also famous for the movie of the same name. It wasn’t a very bright movie.”

​

“I’m tired of that story.”

​

“Hahaha. This is an essential explanation for first-time visitors to San Francisco.”

​

Devin smiles and talks to Olivia, who frowns. In addition to Olivia’s unruffled demeanor, her family and employees seemed to get along quite well.

​

I was just amazed to see that in a city like this, there were houses with only one family living there, not apartments.

​

“Oh… Then the price of the house must be no joke.”

​

“I guess so. However, this is not necessarily the most expensive place to live in San Francisco. There are places like the Marina District nearby, and although it’s not San Francisco, there are also places like Atherton and Ross a little further away.”

​

Devin’s voice lowered, like a grandfather telling an old story.

​

“So, crimes targeting the rich sometimes occur. There are police officers patrolling all the time, so most cases end in attempts. Please take care of yourself during your stay.”

​

“… … .”

​

There’s no need to tell me that. Is this an American joke about security or something? It was a remark that felt a bit odd.

​

Anyway, as we moved around chatting like that, we arrived at our destination in no time.

​

“Arrived.”

​

“Keu… ! Thanks Devin! Minho, let’s go in quickly! Mom is waiting!”

​

Olivia got out of the car, stretched and said. I looked at my smartphone and asked for the viewers’ understanding.

​

“The broadcast will turn on again in a moment. It’s my first time meeting the person who invited me, so it’s a bit awkward to do it with the broadcast on. Viewers, please come and have lunch.”

​

​

-Turn it back on quickly!

-ㅇㅋ I admit that.

-Oh, I have to watch it while eating lunch.

-ㄹㅇ I have to watch the broadcast while eating haha.

-Get back quickly ㅠㅠ

-The world stopped…

​

​

So we ended the broadcast and followed Olivia’s instructions and entered the front door. She spread her arms in front of me and shouted.

​

“Welcome to my home!”

​

“Wow… ”

​

Beyond the gate and fence was a very well-manicured garden.

​

How is the lawn maintained? The green, verdant leaves grow at a certain height, and the lawn is thoroughly divided into walking paths and areas.

​

A small flower bed with trees and flowers was created near the wall. A short, nameless white flower spread its delicate scent throughout the garden.

​

The size of the garden was somewhat smaller than that of Jeong Soo-jin’s father’s house, but the houses seemed to be similar in size.

​

‘Just by looking at it, it’s a very expensive house… ‘

​

“How about it?”

​

“It’s so pretty.”

​

“Of course! I thought Minho would like it too! Actually, my favorite place in my house is this garden.”

​

I asked her just in case.

​

“Did you take care of all of this yourself?”

​

“Hehe, that’s not it. If the gardener takes care of the difficult parts, my mom and I can take care of it little by little as a hobby.”

​

“I see. Still, it’s amazing.”

​

“Thank you for saying that.”

​

“Ah, Mom!”

​

While I was looking at the flower beds with Olivia for a while, her mother opened the front door and looked at us. It was Melissa Journey, a modest-looking woman with neatly cut blonde hair.

​

Unlike Olivia, who was slightly embarrassed, I, who had already sensed the presence, calmly greeted her.

​

“Madam Journey, it’s been a while. How have you been?”

​

“Thank you. Minho, you’re doing well too, right?”

​

“Of course. Mr. Journey… ”

​

As Olivia blurted out words, pretending to look for Olivia’s father, who had not yet shown up, Melissa told him about his whereabouts.

​

“My husband went to work because he had important work to do. Assuming it’s similar to usual, I won’t be back until late in the evening.”

​

“I see.”

​

“Because he is a man who does not have weekends, he invited guests and was away. I’m sorry.”

​

“No. It is an honor to be invited to such a beautiful home.”

​

“Thank you for saying that.”

​

“Oh, this is a gift. I was even invited, but I’m sorry for coming empty-handed.”

​

I unpacked my bag, pretended to take something out, and took out a Gunsan silver needle from my inventory. It was an item acquired from the world of Tuseonhyeophaengrok.

​

Tea leaves wrapped in luxurious silk looked unusual at first glance, so they were great to use as gifts.

​

“Thank you. I’ll drink it well.”

​

“Please let me know if it suits your taste. I can send you more.”

​

It is already a world of Tuseonhyuphaengrok, where energy is richer than reality, and this is the highest quality tea leaves brought from there. I didn’t add it for fear of sounding like a medicine seller, but it was clear that drinking tea regularly would be beneficial to one’s health.

​

“What, when did you prepare something like this again? Like you knew in advance that we would invite you?”

​

Olivia opened her rabbit eyes next to her and watched.

​

“Because I was quite thorough in preparation.”

​

“Really? Hmm.”

​

“… … ?”

​

The face with both hands behind its back and an expectant expression is a face that is definitely looking forward to a gift. I snorted at that absurd sight.

​

“I don’t have yours.”

​

“Ah, why!”

​

​

​

***

​

​

​

“… … .”

​

Minho and his group appear to be having a pleasant conversation from the front door. They soon followed Melissa’s guidance and entered the house.

​

And someone was watching closely outside the gate.

​
