Chapter 359: Revenge
Surprisingly.
The dinner party proceeded as planned.
When Section Chief Yoon made the same offer to the other two that he had made to Seo Ye-rin, they both jumped at the chance.
"Huh? Lectures? I used to listen well during exam periods, but lately, not so much."
"Wahahaha! Everyone’s the same!"
Yoo Ah-rin actually hit it off quite well with the hot-tempered Assistant Manager Oh.
It seemed Assistant Manager Oh also took a liking to Yoo Ah-rin’s boisterous personality.
Even Employee Kim turned out to be a subscriber to the 'Cheer Up Team.'
"Um, by any chance, is this you?"
"Whoa, you’re a subscriber?!"
"What? What is it?"
The conversation shifted toward Yoo Ah-rin’s Neutube channel.
"This is my first time seeing a Neutuber in person!"
"Wow, you have a lot of subscribers."
"I’ve seen kids quit their jobs to do Neutube, but they all ended up going broke."
Since it was an era where everyone and their mother was doing Neutube, it was bound to draw interest.
There were surprisingly many people preparing to do it as a side hustle.
"You’re getting along well."
Choi I-seo, sitting next to me, whispered secretly.
She had looked a bit upset earlier because of Seo Ye-rin, but now she seemed relieved to see me acting friendly with my coworkers.
This was exactly why I called her 'Mom,' but if I said that out loud, I’d probably get scolded.
"Things only loosened up starting today. They didn't really like me before."
"Didn't you do things to make them dislike you?"
"Mmm, I guess so?"
Since I was balancing university and the company, I was out on field assignments almost every day.
To the people at the office, that definitely wouldn't have looked good.
"Anyway, it’s fine since you’re on better terms now. I think I’m going to be pretty busy from now on. I probably won't be able to make it to school for a while."
"Really? Not even tomorrow?"
"Probably?"
Tomorrow would likely be the busiest day.
It wasn't that I had a specific task to perform, but I needed to be there.
Since the collaboration was starting tomorrow, there would be long hours of data handovers and meetings.
Just my presence on this side during communication with other departments could apply significant pressure.
"Really? That’s a shame."
Choi I-seo looked openly disappointed, perhaps because we had a lecture together tomorrow.
"I’ll take good notes tomorrow and send them to you separately."
"Yeah, thanks."
"As far as I know, the attendance cutoff is three absences, so don't miss the same lecture three times."
"I'll keep that in mind."
Thanks to managing my attendance fairly well so far, I had some breathing room.
Of course, even so, my primary duty was being a college student, so I intended to prioritize attendance.
Once this busy week passed, wouldn't it be okay even if I wasn't around?
"How is the company? What’s the atmosphere like? Is it similar to that drama we watched?"
"Roughly? But it’s not as cutthroat as in the dramas—"
"Ahem, I-seo?"
That was when Seo Ye-rin returned from the restroom.
With a bright smile, she tapped Choi I-seo on the back and spoke.
"Could you move over? I want to sit there."
"……."
"……."
Choi I-seo and Yoo Ah-rin were currently sitting next to me. But since Yoo Ah-rin was in the middle of a conversation about Neutube with the team members, she couldn't break that flow.
So she was asking Choi I-seo to move.
It was a strange situation.
Normally, she wouldn't have even made such a request and would have just sat somewhere else on her own.
But right now, in this place, my girlfriend was Seo Ye-rin.
If two other women were sitting next to me instead of Seo Ye-rin, it would look odd.
"……Here."
In the end, Choi I-seo stood up and moved away from me.
Seo Ye-rin hummed as she quickly sat down and linked her arm with mine.
"Woo-jinnn, Mom was so angry about yesterday."
"Yesterday?"
Ah.
"That’s why I told you to go home—"
I instinctively stopped mid-sentence.
Fortunately, it seemed the team members hadn't heard.
Beyond Seo Ye-rin, Choi I-seo, who was glaring at me with murderous eyes, let out an incredulous laugh.
"So you were together yesterday?"
"Yep! In Woo-jini's room."
"Hmph, is that so?"
I could practically hear her teeth grinding from here. Seeing how much strength she was putting into the hand holding her soju glass, I was worried it might shatter.
"What should I dooo? Should I just not go home today either? I'm scared of Mom scolding me."
"I'm scared of you, Ye-rin."
And more than that, I was scared of Choi I-seo.
Just look at her thrusting her glass at me, telling me to pour.
As soon as I poured the drink, Choi I-seo downed it in one go.
'Her pace is a bit fast.'
Even though she arrived later than us, her drinking speed was catching up.
I was worried because drinking too fast can lead to getting wasted instantly.
"Woo-jin, feed me meat."
Seo Ye-rin didn't give me a chance to worry.
"You can eat it yourself."
"I dropped my chopsticks."
"Then get a new pair—"
"……."
I felt the pressure from the way Seo Ye-rin stared blankly at me.
With a sigh, I popped a piece into her mouth, and she munched on it, saying it was delicious.
Clack!
Choi I-seo thrust her glass at me again.
"I-seo, I think your pace is a bit too fast."
"What do you care?"
"……."
"Just worry about your girlfriend."
She was already a bit tipsy.
"Hey, what's with her? Why is she so drunk?"
Yoo Ah-rin, who had finished her Neutube talk with the team, asked in surprise.
She looked flustered seeing Choi I-seo’s face flushed red from being completely wasted.
"Even if the alcohol is free, drink in moderation, you brat."
She poured a drink into Choi I-seo’s glass for me.
As the dinner party was nearing its end.
Section Chief Yoon’s phone rang loudly.
Startled by the alarm-like ringtone, the Section Chief immediately rushed out of the restaurant.
Seeing that, the team members chuckled.
"Ah, it’s over for today."
"That’s a shame. I wanted to go for a second round."
"Can't be helped. We'll be busy starting tomorrow anyway. It’s right to end it here."
"It’s over?"
Since Choi I-seo was very drunk and Seo Ye-rin was running wild, I also wanted to end it quickly, so the team members' conversation was welcome news.
"Section Chief Yoon is totally whipped by his wife. That ringtone is specifically for her."
"Whenever she calls to ask when he’s coming home, the dinner party is guaranteed to end right then and there."
Indeed, as soon as Section Chief Yoon came back in, he said awkwardly that he had to go.
Seeing him break into a cold sweat despite the cold weather, I strangely felt a sense of kinship.
In the end.
"Good work, everyone!"
"See you tomorrow!"
"Let’s give it our best!"
We parted ways with the Digital Marketing team, promising to see each other tomorrow.
Thanks to pacing ourselves, even though there were quite a few empty bottles, everyone was able to head back without being too disheveled.
And then.
"Seo Ye-rin!"
"Was that fun for you?"
Seo Ye-rin was immediately subjected to a physical assault.
"Aang! Aaack! That hurts!"
To an outsider, it would look like bullying.
Well, it was bullying, but they weren't putting as much force into it as they did when they hit me.
"It hurts! But it was fun, wasn't it?!"
"It wasn't fun at all."
"Oh really? Let's see if this is fun too."
Yoo Ah-rin put Seo Ye-rin in a headlock. Seo Ye-rin flailed and struggled, but a winner's smile was plastered on her face.
"Hehehehe, after all, at Woo-jini's company, I'm officially the girlfriend, right?"
She really was something else.
"You idiots, this is like claiming territory. It can't be helped at school, but in Woo-jini's other social circles, I have to be the first to stake my claim as the girlfriend!"
"……."
"……."
"Hehehe! True Heroine Ye-rin's grand victory! Today is sex day!"
Having escaped Yoo Ah-rin’s grip, Seo Ye-rin hopped around in joy.
I wondered if she really liked it that much, but what she said was surprisingly persuasive.
Among ourselves, we accepted that the three of them were dating me, but the outside world wouldn't look kindly on it.
So one of them had to be introduced as the girlfriend, and if one of them introduced herself as the girlfriend to those around me first, the other two wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
Seo Ye-rin was thoroughly enjoying her victory, but...
"Phew, so you were here."
A calm voice I hadn't heard in a while.
Seo Ye-rin, who had been rejoicing with both hands in the air, froze.
"M-Mom?"
Her mother, who was furious about Seo Ye-rin staying out last night, had come in person.
In an instant, Seo Ye-rin glared at me.
"You traitor!"
She snapped at me, demanding an explanation.
But I had to survive too, didn't I?
"I couldn't just pretend I didn't know when your mother asked."
When she called me personally to ask where Seo Ye-rin was, how could I say I didn't know?
Especially when her opinion of me probably wasn't that great to begin with.
"Woo-jin, thank you."
"Yes! Ma'am! Get home safely!"
"……."
The look she gave me seemed very suspicious, but she didn't seem to want to dig deeper and just dragged Seo Ye-rin away.
"Waaaaaaaah!"
As Seo Ye-rin was practically kidnapped into the car and driven away.
The three of us remained.
"Should we head out too?"
I made the suggestion with a smile, but the two of them glared at me with their arms crossed.
Their eyes said that the tension between us hadn't been resolved yet.
Should I suggest going for more drinks?
Maybe if I clung to them and acted a bit cute, they’d soften up?
'But I have to go to work tomorrow.'
However, I had to work tomorrow.
Even though I was somewhat strong against soju or beer, drinking back-to-back days could interfere with tomorrow.
'Plus, I was up almost all night with Seo Ye-rin yesterday.'
Drinking was one thing, but sex seemed like it would be truly exhausting.
Of course, even if I told them to do it now, they probably wouldn't accept.
"Phew, guys."
The man, Kim Woo-jin.
For the sake of his women, he was willing to be covered in filth.
"First of all, it’s all Ye-rin’s fault."
Contrary to that resolve, my tongue moved for survival.
I had to save myself first.
"……."
"……."
"Ye-rin was the one who introduced herself as the girlfriend first, and she was the one who called you guys. Everyone, I am innocent."
"Are you cutting her off?"
"Aren't you something."
But in this situation, what I could do was extremely limited.
"I don't know how to make you guys stop being angry. I'll really do whatever I can."
"Hmm."
"Whatever you can?"
Wait, they were surprisingly interested.
I thought they’d tell me to stop talking nonsense.
"Of course! So, what should I do? Should I just whip it out right here?!"
* * *
My name is Kim Woo-jin.
And right now, I am in the middle of whipping it out.
'How did it come to this?'
Of course, I didn't take my pants off in the middle of the street.
This was a hotel.
A business hotel near the company where buyers often stayed.
I was in there with Choi I-seo and Yoo Ah-rin.
"……."
"I guess there were plenty of rooms left since it’s a weekday."
Choi I-seo looked around the room with her mouth shut tight, while Yoo Ah-rin hummed, seemingly in a good mood from the alcohol.
I stood blankly in front of the two of them with my pants off.
"Mmm, now that I'm inside, I feel like I'm coming to my senses. Is this right?"
Choi I-seo, who had been completely wasted earlier, was regaining her reason now that the critical moment had arrived.
"Hey, are you going to stop now?"
However, Yoo Ah-rin put her arm around her and pointed at me.
"Are you going to just leave that alone? That bastard who made us out to be just ordinary friends and department classmates whenever he felt like it?"
"……You bought the alcohol, right?"
"Oh, of course, Madam!"
'This girl is just a Threesome Demon now.'
She was crazy.
She never missed a chance to be involved when it came to sex.
I’d been thinking this since last time, but maybe she was actually more lewd than Ye-rin.
'Ah, but what do I do?'
I was seriously, incredibly tired.
I had stayed up all night doing it when we went to Hawaii, but that was a vacation, and I had plenty of rest afterward.
But my schedule today?
After a heavy session with Seo Ye-rin last night, I went to work, stayed there all day, and then had a company dinner.
And now I had to do it with these two again?
No matter how much they called me Lu Bu among men, Red Hare among horses, and Dick Addict Woo-jin, this was going to be tough.
Choi I-seo gulped down some beer.
It seemed she was doing her own version of doping, and this was my only chance.
I tried to defend myself.
"But guys. Honestly, Ye-rin is the most at fault, so why am I the one getting punished?"
"Punished? You bastard. Is coming to a hotel with two women a punishment?"
"Why have you become so used to threesomes? You Threesome Demon."
"It's because I can't win alone, you prick."
With that, Yoo Ah-rin grabbed my lower half, which was only covered by my underwear.
"Hmm?"
Noticing that it felt different than usual, she furrowed her brows.
"Why is it so soft?"
"I'm a bit exhausted. To be honest, I think today might be difficult."
"……."
"……."
Squeeze.
Squeeze.
"There we go."
"Damn it, why am I so healthy?!"
"Because you're an easy man, you idiot."
Then, she pulled out her phone.
"And since we know it’s Seo Ye-rin’s fault, we’re doing this to spite her."
"Huh?"
She tapped something on her phone, and a moment later.
— What?! Where are you right now?!
Seo Ye-rin’s voice came from Yoo Ah-rin’s phone.
It seemed they were on a video call, as she came over to my side and held the camera high so I was clearly visible.
"Ye-rin, I'm going to devour this guy starting now. Jealous?"
— I'm not jealous! Woo-jini can't even get an erection today! Yesterday, I sucked him so—!
She slightly lowered the angle to show my member, which looked ready to tear through my underwear.
— Fuckinnnnng! You said you were all done! You said you used it all up! You said you wouldn't have to do it for a week! You liar!
"Ahem."
I cleared my throat awkwardly and turned my head away.
I was starting to feel bad.
"Idiot. You just stay there and masturbate. While I, who am nothing more than a 'friend' and a 'classmate' to him, fuck the brains out of your boyfriend."
Just then.
Choi I-seo burst into the frame.
She suddenly lunged at me and pressed her lips against mine, and our bodies tilted as we fell onto the bed.
The alcohol I-seo had been drinking just now was transferred through her tongue.
It was strangely fragrant with a subtle hint of grapes, and my head began to spin involuntarily.
— I told you NTR isn't my thing when it's happening to meeeee!
Seo Ye-rin’s desperate voice echoed through the room.
