Chapter 313: Last Night in Hawaii
“…Sigh, my life.”
Collapsing onto the bed, I stare blankly up at the ceiling. My whole body is stinging so much that it’s hard to even get up.
Seeing the sheer determination it takes to beat up her own boyfriend like that, I think Yoo Ah-rin is destined for greatness.
“Woo-jin-ah.”
Beside me.
Another person is sprawled out.
Seo Ye-rin, who got thrashed before I did, is lying face-down with her head buried in a pillow like a corpse.
“I think your girlfriend is a serial assaulter.”
“Tell me about it.”
“Should we report her to the police?”
“What’s the police number in Hawaii?”
“I don’t know.”
“Then let’s not.”
“Okee-doke.”
Since we have nothing better to do while lying there beaten to a pulp, we just drift into conversation.
Ye-rin slowly turns her head toward me.
“Woo-jin-ah.”
“What now?”
“Your girlfriend said it’s her turn today.”
“I mean, she’s not wrong. But we’re heading back to Korea tomorrow, so we need to sleep early tonight. We have to leave right at lunchtime.”
Choi I-seo had warned us repeatedly that it would be safer to at least eat breakfast at the airport.
So, we really should get to bed early tonight.
“Then shouldn't we just start right now?”
“Hmm, you make a compelling point.”
“Right? So, what do I do? Should I just take my panties off now?”
I was about to tell her to go for it, but then I glanced down.
There was Choi I-seo, busy setting out food since we’d decided to eat in for our final night.
She was glaring in our direction, having clearly overheard our conversation.
It didn't look like anyone would be taking their panties off tonight.
“Probably not happening today.”
“Tch.”
She looks disappointed, but she doesn't push it. Just as I’m about to get up and help with the setup—
Vibrate!
A Tok message arrived from Korea.
It was the Idiots' group chat.
For some reason, Chan-woo had messaged first.
“What is this?”
The photo he sent was of me looking incredibly ugly, caught in a sudden gust of wind.
My bangs were flying everywhere, my nostrils were flared, and my mouth was hanging open. I was even scowling, which made my forehead look all wrinkled.
I was staring at the chat, wondering what they were talking about, when I noticed something strange.
I went to the notification for new profile updates and checked.
“What the…?”
The profile pictures for Seo Ye-rin, Choi I-seo, and Yoo Ah-rin had all been changed to that exact photo.
The Idiots were one thing, but the real problem was that messages were starting to pour in from people I barely even knew.
“Ah, for fuck’s sake.”
A bunch of people I’d never even heard of were suddenly spamming me with messages.
This was the first time in my life I’d received this many DMs since the news broke that I was the Chairman’s son.
“Hey! What are you guys going to do about this?!”
When I held out my phone and snapped at them, Seo Ye-rin suddenly bolted upright and shouted.
“Aaaah! I got a DM from Hyun-ah! She says Woo-jin is cheating!”
“What are you talking about?!”
Annoyed, I tossed my phone aside and reached for Ye-rin, who was still on the bed.
If it were a guy, I would have choked him, but since she’s a girl, I squeezed her breasts instead.
“Aaah! Ow, that hurts!”
“Shut up! This is all happening because of you guys!”
“If you’re going to do it, do it gently! Move your fingers a bit!”
Just then, an arm hooked around my neck.
A move straight out of wrestling—a clothesline.
Yoo Ah-rin flipped me over like she was flipping a game piece, pinning me to the bed while I was still on top of Ye-rin.
Unfortunately, as I went over, my back crushed Ye-rin’s legs.
“Aaargh! My legs!”
Ye-rin writhed in pain and rolled right off the bed.
Thud!
“Aaaaagh! My head!”
“How dare you sexually harass her!”
Ignoring the fallen Ye-rin, Ah-rin glared at me, huffing.
But I had something to say too.
“Hey! Change your profile pics! I’m getting flooded with DMs because of that!”
“Profile pics? Oh, you mean that one where you look like a total wreck?”
Ah-rin mocked me.
Fuming, I sat up, wrapped my arms around her waist, and tackled her.
Praising myself for pulling off a move that looked like it belonged in a wrestling ring, I looked down at the pinned Ah-rin.
“You Taekwondo types can’t do a thing against grappl—Gah?! Ow! That hurts!”
Even while pinned, she started swinging her fists and pummeling me.
Wait, the webtoons said Taekwondo practitioners were helpless in this position.
“Ow! Stop hitting me!”
Since she kept punching without a word, I ended up digging in deeper.
When I hugged her tight, a startled Ah-rin started hammering on my back, but surprisingly, there was no strength behind the blows.
“Let go, you bastard!”
“You’ll hit me if I let go!”
“I’m going to hit you even if you don’t!”
Was there no way to subdue her? I shifted my hands slightly and started tickling her sides.
“Hee-hee?!”
Ah-rin jumped, clearly ticklish.
“This is it, you little brat.”
As soon as I started tickling her in earnest, Ah-rin began squirming in my arms, laughing hysterically.
“St-Stop! Okay, I get it! Stop it! You bastard, hahahaha! Stop poking my butt!”
“Ahem.”
Poking her butt was an unavoidable accident.
I pulled my hips back and let go. Ah-rin lay there, disheveled and breathless, with tears in her eyes.
“Haa, haa… you bastard. I just got totally sexually harassed.”
“Your chest is so small I didn't even know I was touching it, you brat.”
“I am seriously going to kill you.”
I was about to make a run for it before I actually died, but then I saw Choi I-seo looking at my phone.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
“Oh, I just looked because you said you were getting messages. I guess everyone was really curious.”
“Of course they are. Three girls suddenly changing their profile pics to my photo in the middle of break?”
Especially since the three of them were famous beauties that everyone was interested in, and we were known to hang out together.
“They must be confused. They’re probably wondering which of the three I’m actually dating.”
They probably wondered even before the break, but then the broadcast about Oh Yun-ji aired.
If they were in the English Department, there was no way they didn't know about me and Oh Yun-ji, so they obviously knew I was the youngest son of Uju Group.
A few guys had messaged me then, trying to get close, but I’d ignored them all.
In the end, based on the broadcast, people probably thought I was getting back together with Oh Yun-ji.
But then, all of a sudden, these girls simultaneously changed their profile pictures to a derp photo of me. They must have sensed something was up.
Plus, it seemed the girls had told a few friends they were going on a trip.
“What are you going to do about this?”
“What is there to do? We’ll just say we got a funny photo and posted it. It’s hilarious.”
It actually was funny.
I just wish I wasn't the subject of the photo.
“Sigh, I guess I can just say that.”
I took my phone back, planning to tell people I’d sent the photo because it was funny.
“But where are the others?”
Oh Yun-ji, Choi Jin-ah, and Senior Ju-hee were nowhere to be seen. I thought we were all eating together.
“Ju-hee unni went to take a call, and Yun-ji and Jin-ah went to their room to grab something. They said they have a game to play?”
“A game? Like what?”
“I don't know. More importantly, come here. I have a good idea.”
Choi I-seo suddenly snatched my phone, tapped away expertly, and then linked her arm with mine.
Click.
She took a selfie.
Since I-seo was actually trying to look pretty, the photo came out incredibly well.
I wish she’d act like this more often.
“Upload this as your profile pic. That’ll solve everything.”
“How does that solve anything?”
“It solves it by making it look like you’re dating me. The other girls just look like they were posting your derp photo as a joke.”
“Hmm.”
“Why? You don't want to?”
“No, it’s not that I don’t want to—!”
Grab!
“You son of a bitch!”
Yoo Ah-rin flew in from behind and immediately latched onto my neck in a sleeper hold.
“Ack!”
I stumbled and almost fell, but I managed to stay upright through sheer core strength.
“This bastard is sexually harassing me but saving all the pure love for Choi I-seo?!”
“Gah! Let… go, you brat!”
As I struggled and backed up—
I stepped on something.
Crunch!
“AAAAAAAAAGH! MY HAAAAAND!”
That girl was still lying on the floor by the bed.
“It hurts! It hurts! Blow on it!”
Seo Ye-rin clung to the leg that had stepped on her, while Yoo Ah-rin bit my ear while hanging onto my back.
In the midst of this disastrous collaboration, just as I moved violently to try and shake them off—
Crash!
The table in front of the bed flipped over.
The moment all the food Choi I-seo had neatly prepared hit the floor—
“…”
“…”
“…”
The three of us simultaneously glanced at Choi I-seo.
“Haa… haaa…”
I-seo’s lips were twitching.
the moment I saw that, I was already sprinting for the door.
“R-Run, you idiot! Unless you want to die!”
Ah-rin, still hanging onto my back, screamed urgently.
“Uwaaaaaah!”
Behind us, the scream of Seo Ye-rin, who hadn't managed to get up yet, echoed through the room.
