‘It’s embarrassing.’

I’m starting to like him unintentionally, but I’ve decided to ignore him for now.

I didn’t feel bad that Jessica had feelings for me.

But, ironically, the more it did that, the further it became from my taste.

That’s my wall.

‘If you want to get my attention, get close to other guys…’

I saw earlier that it was quite popular.

I tried hard to avoid Jessica’s gaze.

Then, the favorability rating went up by about 3 points.

I’m going crazy. Really.

[If you have finished eating, please return to your room.]

“Huh? Already?”

“It’s only 8 o’clock.”

“I’m a little tired. Maybe it’s because I took the plane.”

In the midst of that conversation, Taesung, a relatively short, handsome man, spoke to me.

“Are you okay, brother?”

Now, with the title of “hyung” that seems to have become fixed.

“I’m not tired… but I feel a little awkward sharing a room with my partner.”

“Partner… Oh, I see. Now, when you return to your room, we have to spend the night together.”

“Wow… wow, I’m a little excited.”

“I’m a tent, but this is…well…”

Although I spoke informally to him since he was called hyung, no one seemed uncomfortable.

It was a little awkward, but it was nice and comfortable because I could speak informally.

The expression on the man’s face as if the tent was his room was a little strange.

The tent wasn’t great in terms of sleep quality, but on the other hand, it wasn’t bad in some ways.

It’s narrow.

That’s the advantage.

The meal was over quickly.

Everyone naturally joined their partners as they had to return to their rooms.

It was a bit scary to see the women who had been gossiping about the men join in with such calm expressions.

The men all talked to the women with happy expressions on their faces.

They say ignorance is bliss.

It turns out that having good hearing isn’t always an advantage.

Jinju also walked towards me with frequent steps.

“What did you say?”

“Huh?”

“Uh… at the table.”

“Ah.”

It seems that he was curious about the conversation that was going on at the men’s table.

There was good reason why the women quickly joined their partners.

However, there wasn’t much of a story to tell.

“Everyone is praising women for being so kind?”

“Ahhh~… You’re saying I’m good?”

“And most of them said they really liked their partners.”

“Ahem~”

That’s all I had to say.

Because this is really the only conversation we had.

Jinju looked at me suspiciously, but it was the truth.

“Then, Mr. Seonghan? Did you compliment me?”

“I’m busy eating…”

“Hey…what is it…”

The pearl puffed out her cheeks as if she was being ripped.

There really was no time to talk.

Because I was using all my concentration to eavesdrop on the conversation at the women’s table.

Even though I didn’t say anything, I liked Jinju, my partner.

Because you don’t have to check the favorability rating to see how you feel, it shows on your face.

“Well, Seonghan and Ella seem to be on good terms. I saw them moving around together.”

“Ahaha…. Nope.”

That’s not true.

If Ella had heard this, she would have denied it with a fire in her eyes.

Because the person who hated me the most here right now was none other than Ella.

As we arrived at the door of the room, we found something like a wish box next to the door.

“What is this?”

There was a small piece of paper attached next to the wish box.

[Vote for the person you liked the most today.]

[*After writing, the name of the person who voted will be shown on a small camera in front of the ballot box.]

[This vote could have a huge impact on the final outcome and resort life.]

“The final result…”

Usually the final result of a dating program.

Isn’t this the formation of a couple?

“Shall we vote for each other?”

“…Okay.”

Anyway, it was the first day and there was no one to vote.

I accepted the offer lightly.

I wrote down Jinju’s name and showed it to the camera.

Jinju also wrote something and showed it to the camera.

You may not have written me down.

‘doesn’t care.’

It wasn’t even my intention to win.

After voting, I went straight in, washed up, and went to sleep.

There was some talk about the order in which we should wash, but I decided to wash first.

It won’t take me long.

There it isㅡ

“Don’t put on makeup. I’m going to wash up and go to bed right away anyway.”

“Ah… That… Thank you.”

I told her that I would wash up first because she wanted to bring a lot of cosmetics, probably because she didn’t want to show her bare face.

Favorability went up a little.

[Favorability: +10]

…But looking at you, it looks like you don’t have much makeup on.

After taking Hannah’s lecture on makeup, I also developed an eye for it.

Jinju’s makeup was light.

I’m telling you, those kinds of people are the ones who pay the most attention.

One night passed like that.

***

There was no morning broadcast.

It was not until after 11 o’clock in the morning that the broadcast began.

[Everyone, please gather in the lobby.]

Jinju and I quickly put on our clothes and headed out.

I took a quick look in the mirror before going out.

‘It’s not as good as what Hannah did, though…’

Before coming to Hong Kong, I met with Hannah every day and learned makeup.

As a result, I was able to wear light makeup.

Still, it was a shame that Hannah did it for me.

When I went out to the lobby, everyone was standing there in comfortable clothes with slightly droopy expressions, as if they had had a good night’s sleep.

I was relatively unharmed.

The stamina skill was able to wash away the body’s fatigue even with just a little sleep.

[I will disclose the results of the vote held yesterday.]

[You will gain more privileges at the resort based on the number of points you receive.]

[Conversely, if there is no table, there may be some disadvantages.]

“Huh? Are you going to reveal it right away?”

“Suddenly?!

“What should I do~”

“What if I don’t receive the ticket?”

Screams and sighs came out of the participants’ mouths.

Even though they all spoke as if they were scared, their expressions showed that they were secretly confident.

Because they are so handsome.

I think he thought he would get at least one vote.

me?

…I think I’ll get at least one vote.

It wasn’t that I was particularly confident about my looks or anything like that.

I glanced around and looked at a woman.

[Wall: 2.5D, Northern Archduke, A man who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside]

[Favorability: +55]

Jessica’s favorability rating had increased again overnight.

The walls have also become a bit more specific.

… What on earth is 2.5D?

[The first person to receive 3 votes is Jessica and Kang Ryul?]

“Huh? Oh, me?”

Jessica, who had been blankly staring at this, stepped forward with a bright expression.

Then he bowed and expressed his thanks.

A man named Kangryul also left.

I heard he’s a new actor who started out as a model.

Overall, I felt like he was a flawless man.

Kang Ryul also bowed in greeting.

“Thank you!”

Everyone applauded with warm expressions at the polite behavior shown by Jessica and Kang Ryul.

no.

Looking closely, the corners of the woman’s mouth were twitching slightly.

It seemed like the three male votes were concentrated on one side and he was feeling uneasy.

[And these are the people who got 1 vote.]

Looking at the one-vote announcement right away, it seems like no one received two votes.

[Ella, Jinju, Seonghan, Taeseong.]

When my name was called, I came forward and greeted him briefly as if we had made a promise.

“…What…I wasn’t called?”

“Hey! You said you were picking on me!”

“You didn’t pick me either!”

“Are you sure this was voted correctly?”

As soon as the presentation was over, the lobby suddenly became noisy.

Those who didn’t receive the tickets started fighting with each other.

Some were left feeling hurt by the fact that they had not received a single vote, and some were even angry that the other party had not kept their promise to vote for them.

As the mood became a little awkward, the people who had received one vote for no reason looked at each other with awkward expressions.

And Jinju avoided my gaze.

‘You didn’t pick me.’

I could tell right away by the guilty expression on his face.

Then who chose me?

…Okay. I know even without looking.

[Those who received the table will move to the right of the lobby, and those who did not will move to the left and proceed with the meal mission.]

“Eating Mission…”

“…Sigh, let’s go for now.”

“We’re going too.”

The two groups split up and move.

The difference in facial expressions between the two groups was like heaven and earth.

They’re going to have a huge fight today.

As we turned to the right, we saw that a door leading outside was open.

It seemed like that was the destination, given the flow.

Going outside through the open door

“Wow…”

A campsite-like area popped out, with logs neatly stacked up.

“Supha…”

When someone took a deep breath, everyone took a deep breath, including you and me.

I was like that too.

Even though it was a cut tree, it was surrounded by trees to this extent, so it felt like the air around here was clean.

I felt the fresh air.

“Huh?”

While everyone was enjoying the fresh air, I lifted the mission paper and read along.

“…Cut all the logs in the basket into firewood and light the fire. If you finish quickly, you will get a meal option and a special reward”

“You want me to chop firewood?”

“It’s true… there’s a tree in the basket.”

“Is there an axe under the tree over there?”

“Axe? Seriously… What should I do? I’ve never done it before.”

Usually not.

Would a city dweller ever use an axe?

Then Jessica came closer to me with her eyes sparkling and asked,

“Have you tried it before?!”

It was a confident tone.

What do you see me as?

“Umm…”

I grabbed the axe without saying a word.

“Oh…”

“It suits you!”

“Really! You look like a lumberjack!”

Words flew at me that I couldn’t tell if they were compliments or not.

Even in the midst of all this, the weapon technology was being applied properly.

I hate to say this, but I’m probably better at handling an axe than a real lumberjack.

I felt that way.

“Yes, I think I’ve used it before.”

As an experiment, I placed one of the firewood logs carelessly on top of the tree stump.

And lightly.

He didn’t even use much force, he just used the weight of the axe to strike.

Tsk tsk!

The big tree split open refreshingly.

With a cool sound like splitting an apple.

“…Wow.”

“I’m tired.”

An exclamation of surprise burst out from behind as he appeared on the broadcast.

“As expected…”

[Favorability: +70]

Jessica nodded at me.

‘…It went up again…’

Stop coming up.
