"How would I know? I'm just saying it could be possible."
Being suspected by the other person, or the other person becoming aggressive to cover up their mistakes, there was nothing good about Kim Tae-yeon's situation.
"Right now, Seo-jun-yi..."
"No, I'm just saying it could be possible."
Well, to be honest, isn't it true that you never know about people until you confirm it?
On the surface, he seems timid and lacks any ambition, but unexpectedly, he might be appealing to women.
I absolutely don't think that would happen, but it's literally something you really don't know.
"..."
Judging by Kim Tae-yeon's hardened expression, leading the conversation in this direction might not be a good choice.
Well, there are those kinds of people.
They can insult themselves, but if a third party agrees and insults them, they get upset.
Not that Kim Tae-yeon insulted Kang Seo-jun.
I guess she's probably the type who just doesn't like gossiping about others.
'Just planting the seed of doubt is enough.'
It was enough just to make Kim Tae-yeon aware that there was a possibility.
What's important now isn't about Kang Seo-jun, but empathizing with Kim Tae-yeon.
It was necessary to change the subject of the conversation.
"You're trying hard in your own way. It must be tough."
"Well... it's not a big deal..."
She even practiced contacting men for her boyfriend.
They touch each other's genitals and try to get used to men, but her boyfriend suspects her.
You could say he's really useless, but the problem is that Kim Tae-yeon is so kind that she even pays attention to such a guy.
"It is a big deal. Honestly, it's not an easy thing, is it?"
"N-no big deal. I'm just trying."
"Still, weren't you very embarrassed?"
"...? Huh?"
Her reaction seemed to miss the point of the conversation. I was talking about male adaptation training, but did she misunderstand it as something else?
"If you want to be at the top... there must be a lot of people who recognize you."
"That's true. Well, I think it's inevitable if you're a Hunter."
She's so focused on training that I guessed in that direction, and it seemed to be right.
Maybe it's because she's drunk, but Kim Tae-yeon started talking about things she wouldn't normally talk about.
"Well... it's not all good. Maintaining that position isn't easy..."
She's not the type to show it on the outside, so I didn't know, but unexpectedly, she seemed to be feeling a lot of pressure about being at the top.
Well, maintaining the top position would never be easy.
In my case, I started from the bottom, so I only have to go up, but Kim Tae-yeon is in a position where she's tested every time at the top.
'The top student.'
A position where you have to compete with the guys who are coming up from below every time.
As befits a world that only remembers the first place, if you're at the top, you'll get a lot of attention.
'Even Seo-ah has the attention of most of the Academy students.'
Well, I'm getting attention in a different sense.
As we talked about things with sincerity mixed in, we exchanged stories on various topics.
It's a bit disappointing, but I was about to be satisfied with getting a little closer to Kim Tae-yeon when she started to hesitate.
"Um... Kim Si-woo?"
"Yeah? What's wrong?"
"Do...do men originally obsess over b-breasts?"
"Suddenly?"
"S-Seo-jun-yi is trying to make skinship..."
"Well, there's no man who doesn't like breasts, right? How does he do it?"
That bastard, he must be up to something where I can't see him.
"He puts his hand on my chest as if it were a mistake..."
Instead of confidently touching them like a real man, he seemed to be deliberately bringing his arm or elbow to her chest.
I felt a bubbling feeling inside, but well, when Kang Seo-jun was doing that, I also touched Kim Tae-yeon's pussy.
"Were you okay? Didn't you fight back or anything?"
"W-well, it seems the practice was effective. I was able to endure it to some extent..."
That's not why I made her practice.
The good mood I had all day started to sink.
"B-but it seems I'm still not good enough, my hand still went out... but I did endure it."
"Then shouldn't you practice more?"
"M-more practice?"
"Even if you're suppressing it now, it's over if you make a mistake even once."
"It's not that bad..."
"You have to be thorough with everything."
"I-is that so..."
I've been drinking for a while, so I felt the urge to pee.
Should I take one out in advance?
"I'm going to the bathroom for a bit."
"O-okay."
As I got up from my seat and headed to the bathroom, I saw a familiar face.
"I-I heard he went this way..."
"What? Why is that bastard here?"
A man who looked like Kang Seo-jun was glancing around the entrance.
Our eyes met for a moment, but thanks to the recognition-inhibiting enchantment on my sunglasses, he didn't seem to recognize me.
'Did he follow me? Or did she tell him the location and he came to find her?'
Kim Tae-yeon did look at her phone from time to time, so maybe she asked for the location and he came to find her himself.
This is almost like a stalker, I needed to separate that guy from Kim Tae-yeon.
'This is for Kim Tae-yeon.'
I couldn't let Kim Tae-yeon continue to be involved with such a dangerous guy, I needed to take special measures.
"Heyyy. Can I get your number~ Hehe."
A woman approached me even though I was wearing sunglasses, I was about to lightly refuse as always, but a good idea came to mind.
"My number?"
"Yesss~ I like you so much~ Hi. I'm not usually the type to talk to people first~."
"Um... how about we make a bet?"
"H-huh? A bet??"
"Do you see that man over there? The short one."
"...? Yes. I see him."
Should I check how sincere Kang Seo-jun is?
*
"Hoo..."
"You look drunk, why don't you go get some fresh air?"
I was waiting for Kim Si-woo to come back from the bathroom, and he came back to his seat grinning as if something good had happened.
I'm a little dizzy, but I'm not that drunk.
"W-who's drunk? I'm fine."
"Really? I feel a little drunk. I went out for some fresh air."
"Pfft. You're weak, Kim Si-woo."
To get drunk with just this much, even though I lost in the last exchange match, it seems I'm stronger in this area.
"Hoo... well, I should definitely go to the bathroom..."
Maybe it's because I drank too much, I felt the urge to pee.
Kim Si-woo went and came back, so to be fair, I should go too.
Maybe it's because I got up suddenly, my body was about to sway, so Kim Si-woo, who was next to me, grabbed my shoulder.
"You have to be careful."
"I-I'm fine..."
I've felt this since last time, but why are his arms so thick?
And maybe it's because he exercises, but his shoulders definitely looked broader.
'Can't even compare to Seo-jun-yi... Hoo, what am I thinking.'
Suddenly, the images from that time started to come to my mind.
The moment when I was trapped in the rubble of the building and had no choice but to expose my private parts in front of Kim Si-woo.
When my lower body was paralyzed and I couldn't do anything, it was quite humiliating.
'I-I should definitely go to the bathroom...'
Such a thing could not happen again.
I lightly ignored Kim Si-woo's offer to help and was heading to the bathroom when I heard a somewhat familiar voice.
"M-my number?"
"Yesss~ I like you so much~~ Please give me your number!"
A much smaller build than other men, and a seemingly clumsy voice.
The one who looked like he needed to be protected even though he was a man was Kang Seo-jun.
'Why is Seo-jun-yi...'
I told him the location, but I really didn't expect him to come like this.
That's not the point, why is he with a woman he's meeting for the first time?
A woman with a voice full of aegyo, heavily drunk, wearing quite revealing clothes, so her cleavage was clearly visible.
'...Is it okay as long as it's a woman, not me?'
He kept looking at the woman's chest while pretending not to, is that what all men do?
Honestly, she was better at makeup and looked prettier than me, who doesn't dress up.
He's not going to give that woman his number, is he?
"I... I have a girlfriend."
Was it a misunderstanding? A little suspicion did arise, but Kang Seo-jun refused the woman's request.
He wouldn't have betrayed me like Kim Si-woo said, right?
'It's getting late... it's right to stop drinking here.'
As I was about to return to my seat, Kang Seo-jun's arm went between the woman's breasts.
He deliberately bent his knees and clung to Kang Seo-jun.
"Really? I really like your style."
"T-that's..."
"Huh? Huh? Aang. Give me your number~"
Kang Seo-jun's lips went up like a slut.
After all, does he like women with a lot of aegyo more than a blunt woman like me?
He couldn't come to his senses because of the woman's cheap perfume smell.
'Well... he wouldn't give her his number.'
I was confident that Kang Seo-jun would never give his number to another woman.
At that moment.
"O-okay then."
"Wow~ Thank you!"
Contrary to my belief, he gave his number away so easily.
Kang Seo-jun's cheekbones, which looked like they were about to ascend to heaven, and his pants were slightly swollen.
Was he always doing this with other women behind my back?
When did he get angry when he couldn't be reached, and now he's playing around with other women?
Or does he just like any woman?
Looking at Kang Seo-jun's swollen lower body, I suddenly started to feel unpleasant.
Why am I so angry looking at him grinning?
I had no choice but to leave the spot.
"Did something happen? Why do you look like that?"
"..."
"Are you okay?"
Unlike Kang Seo-jun, who was grinning and giving out his number outside, a sweet and gentle voice.
When I came to my senses, I was already in Kim Si-woo's sturdy arms.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing..."
"You look tired, should we just stop drinking here today?"
"..."
The tears started to well up in my eyes at Kim Si-woo's sweet voice.
Does he know how much I'm suffering?
I'm doing my best to pay off Kang Seo-jun's family's debt, but he's not working and is just giggling with other women behind my back.
With the money I earned.
Of course, the money was given to Kang Seo-jun's parents, but Kang Seo-jun wasn't working and was playing around, so the source of the money was clear.
"..."
"Tae-yeon-ah?"
"Follow me."
