“This is aged tuna that I personally airlifted.”

The chef was saying something up front, but honestly, I couldn’t hear it at all.

Even though the sushi was delicious, I was so nervous that I couldn’t fully enjoy it.

In fact, it was making me even less willing to pay.

And it’s the same for other guys too.

They try hard to eat sushi while keeping an eye on each other.

The emotions contained in the eyes were anxiety, anger, and embarrassment.

Someone is wondering if they should stop eating here and run away.

And I think someone else should just be honest.

For someone else, it was a symbol of just eating what was in front of them without thinking.

“Woojin.”

At that moment, Bonggeun, who was sitting next to me, quietly called out to me.

“Connections, you say.”

“Ah.”

right.

He still thought this meeting was business.

“Networking. You have to know how to spend a day without your brain turned on while living.”

“Wow, are you serious? I thought it was a young CEO meeting or something?”

“Those guys? Two ordinary college students and two guys about to enlist in the military?”

“… … .”

“Hey, don’t think of everything as just business. If you do, your brain won’t work.”

You have to know when to rest.

As I added, Bong Geun looked at me with subtle eyes and asked again.

“Then, do I really have to not play with them? It looks like something is strange at first glance.”

“The weird ones are right. But do you think the other kids can act like normal friends to you?”

“… … .”

“Surprisingly, there aren’t many people who can bully you in front of you even though they know who you are.”

As he says that, he looks at the idiots. It’s true that they are strange.

But that’s why they can exist as equals.

Just look at the way he thinks he can skip out on Omakase because he’s the youngest son of the Woojoo Group.

I don’t know if this is naive, stupid, or cute.

“Are there any classmates you contact privately?”

“… … Golf club meeting?”

“Tsk.”

I guess there must be a reason for that gathering.

Among the people he met at the reunion, who would Bonggeun call a friend?

‘You came right away because I called you.’

Even though he pretended not to be, it was obvious that he was lonely.

Well, that’s not the important issue right now.

“Woojin, what’s that over there? Isn’t that a wallet?”

Jung Chan-woo is trying to sneakily place his hand on my thigh. He seems to be certain that the thick object that has come up is my wallet.

I responded immediately, slapping his hand away.

“Report sexual harassment.”

“This is a wallet.”

“You’re a pervert, you’re gay.”

“I’m not gay.”

“But why are you so interested in my butt?”

“… … You want me to be friends with these kids?”

Ignoring Bonggeun, who mutters that it’s ridiculous, I eat the food that comes out next.

“Top is lobster with cheese, herbs and truffle-.”

The chef is explaining something, but that’s not important right now.

There is one thing that you should be suspicious of first.

‘Is it really true that none of these kids brought their wallets?’

Surely no one told me that they brought my wallet, but can I trust that?

‘No, it’s a hundred percent bullshit. At least two of them have wallets.’

Because I have a wallet too.

As more and more food is served and time passes, you will begin to suspect each other.

“Ahem, I need to go to the bathroom for a bit.”

As the course nears its end, Pyo Jin-ho quietly gets up from his seat.

“Oh, the bathroom is inside, not outside.”

The chef kindly guided Pyo Jin-ho, who was walking naturally toward the entrance.

“Ahaha! I see? I was mistaken!”

Pyo Jin-ho laughs awkwardly and goes into the inner bathroom.

‘That’s a brain teaser.’

He probably tried to run away.

“Hey, why don’t you just tell them to stop the course now and go outside?”

As expected, it’s a strong river.

This guy is just a genius at doing bad things.

“Is it good?”

“Go right now.”

“Get out quickly.”

So we were about to quietly get up from our seats when the chef gave us a sharp glare.

“There are still some courses left.”

“Huh? We should stop now-.”

“Then would you like to start calculating right away?”

Everyone’s movements became rigid.

The chef’s eye is unusual.

After seeing us talking about wallets earlier, you seem to be trying to receive payment in advance with a suspicious mind.

“Whew, I have to eat all the courses?”

“Do, because I’m paying.”

“You shouldn’t leave food behind when you come to such an expensive place.”

We sat down again and calmly ate the food that came next.

Pyo Jin-ho came running in with a thoughtful face, but he seemed relieved to see that we were still sitting in our seats.

That must mean he realized he made a mistake.

“Oh, hello?”

This time, Ahn Hyun-ho gets up from his seat.

“Yeah, Gyu-ah. Oppa? Are you eating something delicious with the kids right now?”

I was trying to go outside naturally while talking on the phone.

Woof! Woof! Woof!

Ahn Hyun-ho’s cell phone rings.

“How can you answer another call when you’re on a call?”

Jung Chan-woo smiled and pointed to his cell phone. There was a screen showing him calling Ahn Hyun-ho.

“Oh, Gyu-ah. No, no. Are you having a good vacation? Yeah, I’m with your boyfriend right now.”

And I called Gyu-ah, who said Ahn Hyun-ho was on the phone.

“… … .”

Ahn Hyun-ho, who has been thoroughly refuted, quietly sits back down.

It’s a bit sloppy.

at last.

The course concluded with the arrival of the final dessert.

While everyone else was looking around, flinching, Bong-geun, who seemed to be alone and not thinking about anything, pointed to my bag.

“But why did you bring a bag?”

At that moment, everyone’s eyes were fixed on my bag.

“Hey! Check the bag!”

“There’s something over there!”

Now, looking at those guys who were openly looters, I let out a deep sigh.

He snatches the bag and hugs it, then steps back.

Before I knew it, there were people surrounding me, and Chef and Bonggeun were watching with unexpected excitement.

“Yeah, there’s a wallet inside.”

Why is it that whenever I try to do something good, it always ends up going in a bad direction?

It could be said that there is a lot of karma to say that it is something that you don’t know even though you know it.

anyway.

I took out the packed boxes that had been sleeping soundly in my bag.

“Erxs?”

“Be, there’s also a belt tee? From Louis Vuitton to Goddard? ”

Guys who gape in amazement at the sight of luxury brand logos engraved on the boxes.

“Yesterday, my father told me to buy something at the department store.”

yesterday.

As I looked at the luxury items on display, these thoughts suddenly came to mind.

So, in order to take care of them in my own way, I bought a bunch of luxury wallets that men like.

“So I bought you each a wallet to give as a gift.”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

Four people look at me at the same time.

The corners of their mouths are upturned, indicating that they are having trouble figuring out how to act.

“Gives 3 seconds.”

The moment when A and B are decided.

Our fools were so wise that they had no pride or excuses.

thud!

The guys who immediately knelt down hastily took out their wallets from their inside and back pockets.

“I’ll calculate it today!”

“Starting with what Brother Woojin ate, I will pay for the 2nd and 3rd portions, including Brother Woojin’s! ”

“Actually, I can pay with my phone! Bro!”

“A luxury wallet?! That’s okay! Just being friends with Woojin, who is a luxury item, is enough for me!”

Doesn’t it make you happy if someone claps for you?

‘They all had wallets in the end.’

It felt like I was playing a mafia game where everyone was a mafia.

It was a bit awkward though.

I nodded my head towards the prostrate fools like a saint forgiving their sins.

* * *

– How much alcohol did you drink yesterday?

“Oh, I don’t know.”

The next day.

I thought I would wake up in my dorm, but I was in a hotel.

– Where?

“Whew, what kind of hotel is this?”

At Choi Yi-seo’s question, I glance around.

‘Oh, I slept in the bathroom.’

The moment I realized I had fallen asleep curled up in the bathtub, I started to feel aching all over my body.

It seems like my sleeping posture wasn’t good.

– Sigh, you should drink moderately.

“No, how can you take it out when the kids buy it for you? They keep saying it’s good when you give them your wallet.”

– Eat at Omakase and then go to a bar for round two?

I nodded slightly as I recalled the stinging memories.

“Oh, right. That’s right. It was a bar. The third round was a karaoke room.”

– Did you get to the third round?

“I barely managed to convince him to go to a club or a bar for the 4th time.”

– They are real… … .

A reaction that makes you want to catch me and scold me sometime.

– So. You just went to the karaoke and then went back to the hotel to sleep?

“That’s true. But-.”

what.

Why is my memory of the latter part so blurry?

I have two memories of karaoke.

– however?

“No, it’s nothing. I think I did something after that.”

– … … You’re not singing a song with a woman, are you?

“Hey, I would have done that-!”

Huh?

Why is there a woman in my memory?

It was a familiar sight, but the new form of the woman I was seeing for the first time remained vague.

“… … .”

– Woojin?

I hurriedly responded to Choi Yi-seo, who called me in a cold voice.

“Hey, wait a minute. I’ll come to my senses and call you back.”

– where-!

I hung up the phone and sat down on the toilet. I needed to think back on what exactly had happened.

‘No, I told you not to call a girl and that you absolutely cannot do that?’

I barely managed to stop Han Kang and Pyo Jin-ho from yelling at the top of their lungs and calling for help.

I definitely did.

‘But why is there a woman in my memory?’

There weren’t many, but there definitely seemed to be women with long hair-!

Rattling.

“Oh, I feel sick.”

The blonde woman who came in then.

He is large in stature, has a masculine voice, and has a prominent Adam’s apple.

Bonggeun.

To be exact, it was Bong-geun dressed as a woman.

“Oh, shit. I remembered!”

The moment I saw that shitty sight, I hit my forehead and let out a gasp.

“What the fuck?! Why am I like this?”

He leaves the bathroom, leaving Bong-geun to be surprised by his reflection in the mirror.

There were three men and a woman sprawled out in the hotel room.

No, to be exact, three men and one transvestite.

Maybe it was because he was handsome, but Jung Chan-woo really looked like a woman when he dressed up as a woman.

“I told him not to call me a woman, so we made a bet and the loser decided to dress up as a woman.”

I have no idea who came up with this crazy idea.

Anyway, I tried to call again with relief.

– Yoo Ah-rin –

Arin just got a phone call.

“Oh, Arin.”

– Where are you?

“… … .”

Is that tone still going on?

To be honest, it’s a bit disappointing.

“Are you going to keep talking like that?”

– Yes, I’m going to be careful from now on.

It really doesn’t suit you at all.

Maybe it was because I was drunk, but I responded with a slightly annoyed look.

“Hotel.”

– … … Huh, tell me?

The answer was a little slow, and his speech almost broke.

‘hmm.’

I was thinking of using this for something related to women.

If you keep doing that, it’ll be scary, like waxing a sleeping lion’s nose, so hold back.

Only after I explained the situation simply did Yu Ah-rin’s voice become more at ease.

– Oh, I see? Should I pick you up separately?

“Why?”

– Isn’t it difficult to control your body?

Okay, let’s see how far we can take this concept.

“Hey, come pick me up. I’ll wait.”

– … … .

“Why? You said you were coming to pick me up.”

– Are you really going to pick me up?

“Yeah, come.”

– Are you really going?

“Come on.”

Look at this b*tch panicking.

I bet you didn’t think I’d actually ask you to come.

“Can’t you even do this favor? I’m dizzy from the alcohol?”

– Ha, haha… … Okay, I’ll buy conditioner too?

“Oh, and find a good noodle restaurant near here. We can eat on the way.”

– … … .

“Why? You don’t like it?”

– No, I will.

“Yeah, look carefully. To a place with delicious kimchi. I need delicious kimchi.”

At that time, the idiots who were finally trying to get up and move. Since Arin said she was coming to pick them up, I had to start getting ready too.

‘Oh, I should contact Seohan too.’

I’m trying to contact you because I’m afraid there might be some strange misunderstanding.

The call wasn’t disconnected yet.

– Oh, shit. Do I have to maintain this concept?

– Kim Woojin is really annoying. I can’t even beat him up.

– Should I just close my eyes and crack my head open with a bowl of noodles as soon as I get there?

– How does Choi Yi-seo do this!

– F*ck, f*ck, f*ck, f*ck! Ah! It’s so frustrating because I can’t do what I want!

“Ahem, Arin? I can hear you.”

– … … ?!

There was a brief commotion on the other end of the phone, and Yu Ah-rin cautiously picked up the phone again.

– Did you hear that?

“Yes, should I wear that safety helmet? I don’t want to get my head smashed by a pot.”

– That, ah, hmm.

Yoo Ah-rin, who was about to say something, let out a long sigh.

– If you’re done drinking, then just crawl home!

He suddenly hung up the phone.

“After.”

It’s comfortable.
