Why did the two play a game in a room where only those with two or more votes are allowed, and what did they get out of it?

That was quickly apparent.

[Please pack your bags.]

“Huh? Why?”

“Who would get eliminated and go home?”

“No, really… This isn’t some audition program, so why is there an elimination…”

“Then why would you tell me to pack my bags?”

“That’s it…”

Everyone became noisy.

And I glanced at the two people who had calm expressions on their faces as if they already knew this even in the midst of this chaos.

Those two people were, of course, Kang Ryul and Jessica.

Even though everyone was confused and talking, only two people had calm expressions on their faces.

Everyone went back to their rooms to pack their bags.

I exchanged a last glance with Jessica before returning to my room.

‘What was that expression just now?’

It was a bright smile, but somehow it felt uneasy.

When I entered the room, Jinju was already packing her bags.

“What’s going on?”

“That’s right…”

I also started to pack up the luggage I had unpacked.

Since I don’t usually take out much, I was able to pack my luggage into the carrier quickly, but Jinju seemed to have a hard time.

I had to put everything back in, from the cosmetics to the hair dryer and the clothes I had prepared in advance.

After a while, the broadcast began to flow.

[From now on, please carry your luggage and move when your name is called.]

[First, Sunghan and Jessica, to room 501ㅡ]

As soon as I heard that, Jinju and I exchanged glances.

“No way…”

“…It looks like we’re switching rooms and partners.”

The right to choose your room partner.

That was the identity of what Jessica had gotten out of the room.

I said a quick goodbye to Jinju and went up to the fifth floor.

As we entered the room cautiously, we saw Ella and Kang Ryul, the original owners of the room.

And the people in the tent room who are still awkward with each other.

Everyone greeted each other with a nod.

“…Hyung…It looks a little awkward from here.”

“That’s right…”

“Did Kang Ryul know?”

Ella looked at Kangryul with sad eyes, as if she had been slightly betrayed.

“Yes… The production staff told me not to say anything.”

It seemed like the production team had gagged for this shocking moment.

The presentation continued even as they stared at each other blankly.

[…Kangryul and Ella are in the tent room. That’s all.]

Kangryul and Ella’s expressions darkened, and the people staying in the tent quickly grabbed their things and headed outside, realizing that they had escaped the tent.

He must have had some accumulated energy, because he shouted at Kangryul as he left.

“It won’t be easy!”

The two people who moved from the best room to a tent room in one morning didn’t even have to move their luggage.

You can leave your luggage here and go outside to the pool right next to it when you want to sleep.

At this moment, when the slightly awkward silence was palpable, the main character of all the commotion entered, rolling a carrier.

With a very bright expression.

“Oh! Hello.”

All three of us looked dumbfounded at that polite greeting.

And late, Kangryul and Ella greeted him.

“Yes… Hello…”

“…nice to meet you.”

There was no choice.

Although he was the one who sent them to the tent, he was also their roommate with whom they would spend a long time.

Since I had become Jessica’s partner, I couldn’t avoid her anymore, so I accepted her greeting.

“…Hello.”

“You can speak informally to me.”

“…Is that so?”

It was more comfortable to speak informally.

I had spoken to some men, and I had also spoken to Ella here.

After that, all we did was unpack.

What’s funny is that everyone seems to be concerned about something about this.

No one was actively unpacking except Jessica.

There was a worry deep in my heart that something like this might happen again at any moment.

When I see that, Jessica is really amazing.

‘You’re thinking of coming to this room, right?’

No matter how big and nice this room is, why did you choose this room when you will be living with the people you personally sent to the tent?

It was a choice that no one with a strong heart could make.

Suddenly, an article I had briefly seen on the Internet came to mind.

A woman with heavy makeup, piercings, and boyish clothes = actually soft-hearted and gentle.

A woman who is always smiling, has a soft voice, and clear eyes = energetic and mentally strong.

At that time, I thought, “Is that so?”

Now that I think about it, it doesn’t seem like that was wrong.

“Child, it’s embarrassing if you keep looking at it…”

When I heard her clicking her tongue, I immediately turned my head and Jessica burst out laughing.

Even though she had taken out many of her belongings, Jessica still had a lot of stuff in her carrier.

There was a book among them, and I looked at it to see what kind of book it was.

[300 days of distress with the Northern Duke], [I became the Northern Duke’s unrequited love interest], [Imprisonment, obsession, the Northern Duke.]

You carry around a book like that in your bag?

His tastes were very transparent.

Especially the last bookㅡ

“…Now that we’re done unpacking, let’s go to the living room.”

“Yes.”

I tried to pretend I didn’t see it and ignored it.

Kangryul and Ella were already sitting in the living room.

I felt awkward being stuck in between, so I stayed with Jessica.

It was a bit awkward because the relationship between the beneficiary and the victim of the room assignment was like this.

I sat in the living room with Jessica.

In the awkward atmosphere, it was Kang Ryul who stepped forward first.

“I haven’t been able to talk much, so I wonder how I can talk a lot this time.”

Kang Ryul reached out to Jessica with a friendly smile.

Ella, who was next to me, pouts slightly.

I also reached out to Ella.

Ella looked at my hands in confusion.

“…We’ve already talked a lot.”

“I know, I just wanted to hold your hand.”

“What, what are you talking about!”

Kang Ryul was shocked and Jessica was surprised by the conversation.

Kang Ryul laughed in vain and expressed his admiration, asking how he could say such a thing without even changing his expression.

Jessica is-

“…I’m jealous…”

He muttered softly.

Ella didn’t take the hand I extended to her.

Jessica didn’t even look at Kang Ryul’s hand because of the commotion I caused.

Meanwhile, Ella’s favorability rating went up.

[Favorability: +35]

It hasn’t gone up much, but if you keep at it, it will eventually happen.

Yeah, I think I’ll reach Jessica’s level someday.

[Then we will hold a vote today.]

As the announcement came on, I asked the two people about the location of the ballot box, which I had not seen.

“Ah… it’s over there.”

There was a small ballot box and some papers next to the tent.

As neighbors on the 5th floor, the ballot box was also shared.

“Have you all decided who you’re going to vote for?”

“Yes.”

Jessica answered Kang Ryul’s question, and I nodded too.

Ella glanced over here, and I looked at her at that exact moment.

Ella turned her head sharply when their eyes met.

The ears were red.

I’m not being honest.

We finished voting and even had dinner.

There was nothing special happening at dinner time.

All that happened was that the members who didn’t get the tickets just pointed to the dishes and vented their frustration, saying that all of these were vegetables and fruits that they had prepared themselves.

Of course, there was a strange sense of tension.

Who on earth voted for whom?

Could it be that he lied?

An inexplicable tension filled the restaurant as the meal ended.

It was fun to watch our eyes move busily around each other.

And the real action took place after the meal.

I spent my free time mindlessly exploring the inside of the resort, while Jessica followed me around, claiming to be my partner.

Then I witnessed that scene.

smoking room.

A corner of the first floor, the camera’s blind spot.

Two handsome men and women whose names I don’t even know were excited to get out of the tent.

They were licking their tongues hotly.

“Hey!”

For a moment, I covered Jessica’s surprised mouth with my palm and hid my body.

I was able to avoid being caught thanks to hiding my body in an instant.

“…Didn’t you hear anything, oppa?”

“I guess the sound echoed from somewhere else… Let’s continue…”

Then they kissed passionately again.

what?

Are you crazy?

Do you want the broadcasting station people to edit it for you?

But even so, do people with some level of recognition do things like that?

It’s only the second day, but judging by what’s going on, a lot must have happened inside the tent.

It was understandable for a man and a woman in their prime to sleep in a small tent.

There’s probably a lot to lose.

At that moment, I felt my palms getting wet.

Jessica continued to lick her palm, perhaps in protest of my tightly covering her mouth.

It’s not even a puppy…

As I moved my hand away, Jessica put her hand on my waist.

“What…”

“Shhh…”

‘Was this guy crazy too?’

When I think about it like that again.

Click.

There was a noise from my waist.

“It’s okay to talk now.”

“…Are you okay?”

“The microphone is off.”

“…Huh?”

This is something you can turn on and off?

I didn’t hear any explanation at all.

I was just told to fully recharge before going to bed.

Of course I could have turned it off, but I just accepted it.

“Is it always on? That would be inconvenient.”

“…”

That was a valid point.

I don’t even know Jinju.

Perhaps Jinju had never done variety shows well, so she kept the microphone on.

In comparison, Jessica seemed to know a lot since she had a lot of experience in the entertainment industry.

You can turn off the mic, it’s a blind spot for the camera.

So that’s why you can do something like that.

…I found out something good.

“…Should we do it too?”

“…Okay.”

I lightly licked Jessica’s lips as she stuck her lips out.

“Chi… Honestly, did you worry about it?”

I was worried.

Watching other people kissing made me a little horny.

Besides, seeing it up close, Jessica’s appearance was quite pretty.

“No.”

Again, Jessica wasn’t my target yet.

…so far.

We decided to go back to our room and sleep.
