Chapter 585: Dissatisfaction
“…….”
I held my breath under the collective gaze of the three women.
The way they stared at me, eagerly awaiting my answer, was so adorable that I couldn't help but feel grateful.
How did they even think to ask about my complaints like this?
They were certainly cute, but the fact that they had reached a consensus with just a look the moment they heard the question meant...
They must have been thinking about this for a while. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to signal each other so instantly.
Did they feel guilty or worried about me while they were busy doing whatever they wanted? Or perhaps they had discussed among themselves that I might actually be harboring some dissatisfaction and was just suppressing it.
Whatever the reason, it was endearing.
But there was one thing I could say for certain.
How could I possibly have any complaints?
It wasn't just because I was the one dating six women and felt I should keep my mouth shut. Objectively speaking, I truly had no complaints whatsoever.
They say the most important thing in life is recognizing your own happiness. If that’s the case, I might be the person most aware of his own happiness in the entire world.
I had six beautiful wives, I was the youngest son of a chaebol family, and I had three children.
Looking at it this way, I’d be a total lunatic if I said I was unhappy.
I had everything a man could want; I wouldn't even be able to complain if someone punched me in the face for being ungrateful.
Anyway, while I didn't have a single complaint...
“…….”
“…….”
“…….”
Seeing my wives looking at me with slightly flushed faces and sparkling eyes, they were so cute that I felt a sudden urge to tease them.
Hmm, is there something fun I can say?
When something is this cute, don't you just want to give it a little nip?
“Complaints, huh?”
The drinking game had long since been forgotten. I pushed aside the glass of liquor and took a moment to build suspense, like a storyteller about to drop a major plot point.
“Hmm, should I go one by one?”
They gulped in unison, their eyes fixed on me. They took deep breaths, looking like children bracing themselves for a scolding, and then nodded.
“Do it!”
“Yeah, in order.”
“You... you lost. So be honest.”
“Well, as for Ye-rin...”
…….
Ah, damn. Now that I’m actually trying to say something, I’ve got nothing.
What could I possibly dislike about Ye-rin? First of all, she had overwhelming beauty, a great body, and even a fun personality. We shared many interests, so hanging out with her was always a blast.
But if I had to nitpick one thing...
“Uh... Ye-rin, stop acting like a total hooligan when you’re playing games.”
“…….”
“You’re Bronze.”
That was the best I could come up with. It was true that Ye-rin could be a bit of a maniac when gaming, but even that was cute, so I didn't really mind.
Seo Ye-rin stared at me with her mouth agape. She looked like she wanted to protest, but Choi I-seo cut in.
“Next.”
It was Choi I-seo’s turn. She was the type who enjoyed identifying her own mistakes and shortcomings. Perhaps that was why she wanted to find and improve any flaws in our relationship as well.
I really have nothing for I-seo either.
Where else could I find someone who took care of me as much as Choi I-seo? There was a reason I’d been smacked before for calling her 'Mom.'
This is tough.
Is it you again, the Great I-seo?
“As for I-seo, well... sometimes you’re too serious.”
“…….”
“It can feel a bit stifling at times.”
Choi I-seo blinked a few times, staring at me. But that serious vibe was actually part of her charm. It was because she was always so serious that she took such good care of me.
“Then finally, Yoo Ah-rin.”
“Ahem. G-go ahead.”
I locked eyes with the waiting Yoo Ah-rin. Unlike the other two, I already had something in mind for her.
“Flat-chested.”
“...You son of a bitch.”
Yoo Ah-rin cursed at me instantly. It seemed she had expected something along those lines.
I chuckled and took a sip of beer instead of liquor to moisten my throat before asking, “So? Did you really want to hear what complaints I had about you that badly?”
The three of them widened their eyes in surprise. Then, realizing I had read their intentions all along, their faces turned beet red.
God, they were so damn cute.
“Hahaha! Hey, how could I have any complaints about you guys? Man, why are you all being so cute today?”
“...Woo-jin is mean,” Seo Ye-rin grumbled.
I walked over and gave her a tight squeeze. She snuggled into my arms and asked, “...Are you not going to play games with me anymore?”
“Heh, what kind of nonsense is that? We have to get started on the 'Get Seo Ye-rin to Gold' project.”
“Heehee.”
Ye-rin rubbed her cheek against my chest, looking pleased. Seeing this, Choi I-seo poked me in the ribs and shouted.
“You... you brat!”
“...?”
“...?”
Seo Ye-rin and I looked at Choi I-seo simultaneously. I wondered if I’d heard her correctly, but she just covered her flushed face with both hands.
“Well, you said I was too serious...”
“I was joking. Is a married woman allowed to be this cute?”
“Hmph.”
She stepped forward and stood right in front of Seo Ye-rin. Her expression clearly said it was her turn now and that Ye-rin should move aside.
“No! He’s mine!”
Instead, Seo Ye-rin wrapped her arms around my waist, refusing to let go.
“…….”
“Ow! I-seo is pinching me! Woo-jin!”
As I-seo kept pinching her to make her move, Ye-rin finally cried out for help.
“I-seo, pinching is—”
“…….”
I ended up pretending not to see anything under the weight of Choi I-seo’s glare, which told me to shut up.
“Gah!”
Ye-rin was eventually pushed away by I-seo’s hands. Before the warmth of Ye-rin’s ample chest could even fade, Choi I-seo quickly took her place.
“You’ve lost all your shame, haven't you?”
“What’s shameful about hugging my own husband?”
I let out a hollow laugh at I-seo’s bold statement. Her proactive behavior felt like a sort of sarcastic response to what I’d said earlier.
Yoo Ah-rin pouted. She stared at me as if daring me to say another word, so I let go of I-seo.
“I-seo, hold on a second.”
“…….”
“You’re stretching my shirt?!”
I managed to peel off the clinging Choi I-seo and approached Yoo Ah-rin.
“You bastard, I was the only one being sincere, wasn't I?”
“I told you, it was a joke. Really. I like your chest too, Ah-rin. And so what if it’s a bit small? You have beautiful hips and a great ass.”
Ah-rin tilted her head at my words.
“Am I supposed to be happy about that?”
“And since you’re flexible, we can do positions the others can’t—urk?!”
Yoo Ah-rin immediately headbutted my chest as she dove into my arms. As I held her tight, she huffed and puffed.
“If you ever discriminate against me because of my chest later, I’ll kill you.”
Look at her grumbling. The way she dug her nails into my skin like a feisty cat was quite a sight.
“Have you ever felt discriminated against?”
When I asked just in case, Yoo Ah-rin pouted again.
“No, you jerk!”
She seemed annoyed that she couldn't actually complain about being discriminated against, which made me laugh. It felt like proof that I’d been doing a good job so far.
“But seriously, I don't have a single complaint about any of you. I’m just so happy that you’re by my side.”
Suddenly, a memory of something I’d said back when we were dating came to mind.
“Do you remember? I think it was the day I had that blind date with Jin-ah. I told you guys... that if you stayed by my side, I was confident I could make you happy no matter what.”
I paused for a moment before continuing.
“But I also said that if you ever wanted to leave, I wouldn't stop you. Because I didn't have the right to hold you back.”
Back then, even though there were only three of them, I felt that way. I didn't think I had the right to stop someone who wanted to leave.
“But not anymore.”
I let go of Yoo Ah-rin, who was hugging my waist, and reached out to the other two. My shoulders weren't quite broad enough to embrace all three comfortably, but that only made us huddle closer together.
“I’m never letting go. If you say you hate me... I’ll cry and beg. I’ll plead with you not to leave.”
The three of them smirked at my words.
“I kind of want to see that. Kim Woo-jin grabbing my legs and begging.”
At Yoo Ah-rin’s playful remark, the other two laughed, saying it sounded like it would be fun to watch. But all three of them held onto me tightly, as if to say such a thing would never happen.
“Where would we go when we have kids!”
“Exactly, Woo-jin. We have three children.”
“Geez, listen to what the father of three is saying.”
“Ahem.”
I suppose bringing up divorce, even hypothetically, was a bit much considering we had a family.
I started to let go as it was getting a bit sweaty, but they still wouldn't release me.
“Woo-jin! But you really do have a bit of a belly?!”
“Let’s get some exercise. I think you need to broaden your shoulders. They’re a bit narrow.”
“Seriously, what do you have going for you other than your dick?”
“...Can I change my mind and state my complaints again?”
When I asked them out of sheer disbelief, the three of them laughed and dragged me toward the pension.
“Too late! You can never say them now!”
“You should have grabbed the chance when you had it.”
“Yeah, just live with them forever, you jerk.”
Is it tonight?
As I was being dragged into the pension, I thought to myself.
Which room did Bong-geun go into? Is this place soundproof? Did I bring condoms?
Despite all these worries, my lower half was already starting to harden. The three of them noticed, but they didn't say anything. It was as if we had already reached a silent agreement.
Click.
Slurp, mwah!
The moment I opened the door and stepped inside, I saw Ahn Hyun-ho and Lee Gyu-a making out right in the entryway.
“Ah, fuck.”
My mood soured instantly.
