Jeong Sorim came to the meal date, telling herself it would be just this once.
This was to be her first and last meal date, and she absolutely did not intend to have sex.
Of course, the Big Hand, Lee Hyunwoo, would likely want to sleep with her.
She believed that if she persuaded him sincerely, she could maintain the cashback relationship without having a physical one.
However, she made a mistake at the dinner.
She got dead drunk on expensive wine she was drinking for the first time.
Waking up in the morning, Jeong Sorim was so shocked she wanted to scream.
But her shock subsided quickly at the news that nothing had happened.
She was wearing her underwear, and she felt nothing in her private parts.
So, after finishing her shower, she was about to leave.
But she felt conflicted due to Lee Hyunwoo's pressure to set up the next appointment.
It was true that she had ruined the meal date with her mistake.
It was only right to have another meal date, but she didn't want to deceive her boyfriend again.
She felt significant guilt even now.
But surprisingly, Lee Hyunwoo gave her a luxury gift.
A tracksuit and a bag with a luxury brand logo on them.
She never expected to get her first luxury item in life in a situation like this.
Jeong Sorim lived frugally.
But it wasn't because she didn't want to indulge in luxury.
It was because, with a traditional musician's earnings, she didn't have the money to spend on luxury goods.
She had lived trying to convince herself that luxury items were just expensive and lacked substance.
But now that it was in her hands, it looked incredibly pretty and beautiful.
Her fierce deliberation ended.
Jeong Sorim opened her mouth.
"Tomorrow.... No, shall we meet the day after tomorrow?"
Jeong Sorim set the appointment again.
Even though she might end up betraying her boyfriend if she met him next time.
However, Jeong Sorim even deceived herself.
This is necessary.
Where else would she earn 20 million won a month?
To maintain a good relationship with the Big Hand, Lee Hyunwoo, it was right to do at least a meal date.
And since she had already revealed she had a boyfriend, if she persuaded him sincerely, she might be able to refuse sex.
Lee Hyunwoo seemed like a gentleman.
Hadn't nothing happened yesterday and today?
The reason her clothes were taken off was because they were dirty from food.
"Hmm, well, I have an appointment the day after tomorrow. How about late tomorrow night?"
Tomorrow.
That meant she had to go into Hwasoon's broadcast on Sunday night.
It was just to say hello, so she didn't need to stay that long.
Since Hwasoon broadcasts from late evening until night, she figured it would be around 10 PM when she finished saying hello and came out.
"Late at night...?"
"Yes. I have something to do in the evening, and it should be around 10 PM when I'm done. Shall we meet and have a drink? This time, not the unfamiliar wine, but some light beer."
It was a blatant seduction.
Although Jeong Sorim's experience with men had only been her boyfriend so far, she knew what those words meant.
An adult man and woman drinking alone late at night.
The events that followed would naturally lead to the bed.
What should she do?
Should she refuse?
She agonized once again.
At that moment, she felt the smooth texture of leather in her hand.
Jeong Sorim deceived herself once again.
'It'll be fine. I don't know yet.'
It could be a premature assumption.
And since Lee Hyunwoo was a gentleman, if she refused properly, he wouldn't touch her.
And since she already agreed to the meal date, she couldn't back out.
Eventually, Jeong Sorim nodded.
"Yes. Then see you at ten tomorrow."
"Alright."
"Ah!"
Jeong Sorim was flustered by Lee Hyunwoo's sudden action of getting up and hugging her.
Since they were both wearing only a single robe, the shape and warmth of their bodies were felt directly.
Lee Hyunwoo, who was hugging Jeong Sorim, kissed her on the cheek.
"Hy-Hyunwoo-ssi!"
"While we're on a meal date, Sorim-ssi is my girlfriend. I always kiss my girlfriend when she goes home."
"Th-that.... Haa, I understand. But next time, please tell me first. You surprised me so much."
"Yes. Next time, I'll tell you before I do it."
"No, that's not what I meant.... First, I'll go get dressed. Thank you so much for the gift. I'll use it well."
Jeong Sorim returned home.
Lee Hyunwoo also prepared to go out.
It was Saturday, but the gym was open.
The devil-like trainer was waiting for him.
As Lee Hyunwoo, changed into his workout clothes, left the room, his smartphone rang.
It was Yeoujjing's morning call.
"Umm.... Oppa.... are you up...?"
Kim Hana's voice was heavily intoxicated with sleep.
Lee Hyunwoo let out a dry laugh.
"If a morning call is always later than the time I wake up, isn't it not a morning call?"
"Aang, how was I supposed to know you're someone who wakes up earlier than me.... And I broadcast until night."
"Forget it. I'm going to work out now, so hurry up and get ready. You know where the gym is, right?"
"Ung.... Okay. I'll be there on time. Haaam...."
Kim Hana yawned repeatedly, as if sleepy.
He wondered if she would go back to sleep after ending this call.
Feeling anxious, Lee Hyunwoo added one more word.
"If you're late, I won't buy you those shoes, so keep the time well."
"Don't worry. Don't worry. I'll be there exactly at the time you finish working out. See you later. Love you. Chu."
Her coquetry and aegyo popped out like a spinal reflex.
She's like this even when sleepy, which is why she's called a fox.
"One more. Good. Last one."
"Geuuuugh...!"
He had just said it was the last one a moment ago!
Lee Hyunwoo wanted to shout that, but he had to focus even the strength to open his mouth on his thighs.
If he didn't, he felt like he would fall over.
Lee Hyunwoo had chosen his trainer well.
He understood Lee Hyunwoo's physical condition so well that he always set and assigned a workout volume that felt like he would die, but was still doable.
Thanks to that, Lee Hyunwoo was feeling agonizing pain every single day.
"You can do it! Don't give up. A little more! Squeeze tight!"
"Guaaaah!"
"Nice!"
Eventually, Lee Hyunwoo succeeded in the last full squat.
The trainer shouted "Nice" and helped lift the bar that Lee Hyunwoo had braced behind his shoulders.
"Huaaa."
Lee Hyunwoo sat down on the floor immediately.
Even a devil-like trainer guarantees a short break after a set is finished.
"Drink this."
"Huu...."
Lee Hyunwoo took the protein drink he offered.
And gulped it down.
These days, these products also come out tasting good.
Thanks to that, Lee Hyunwoo was able to swallow the protein shake in one go without having to frown.
"By the way, member-nim."
"Yes...."
"Did something happen with member Ryu Inyoung?"
"Ryu Inyoung? Who's that?"
When Lee Hyunwoo asked, the trainer pointed to a mirror.
Inside the mirror, there were women who weren't working out but were gathered near a chair, chatting.
One of them was someone Lee Hyunwoo knew.
A fat bitch whose face and body were half-baked.
It seems the name of the bitch who misunderstood that Lee Hyunwoo was peeking up her skirt last time was Ryu Inyoung.
"Ah.... there was a bit of a misunderstanding, but it's nothing special. Although she's the one unilaterally misunderstanding."
"As I thought.... That member's reputation isn't very good. She makes up so many lies. She's been spreading rumors that you peeked at her, that you're a hidden camera criminal, and so on."
"What did you say?"
"Don't worry too much. Since people know Ryu Inyoung-nim is of low quality, not many people believe her. If such a thing had actually happened, she would have sued or confronted you. She's acting like that because she has something to hide herself. Anyway, I know you didn't do that, so it's fine. Now, shall we work out again?"
"No, wait! If you end the conversation like this...."
"You can continue the conversation while working out. Come on, let's move."
Lee Hyunwoo wanted to hear more about Ryu Inyoung, but he couldn't beat the trainer with his hard, massive muscles.
"Geuuu...."
After the workout, Lee Hyunwoo came down the stairs holding onto the railing like a newborn foal.
A real devil of a guy.
'Anyway, Ryu Inyoung.'
She was a strange woman not worth dealing with.
What benefit is there for her to badmouth others and spread strange rumors?
It wouldn't matter if he just ignored her like this.
It's not like Lee Hyunwoo had a stake in this gym or knew anyone close here.
No one would believe the rumors Ryu Inyoung was spreading.
Even if the rumors spread, there was nothing that would be a big blow to Lee Hyunwoo.
But it felt bad.
Why is a bitch who I wouldn't even eat if she was given to me acting like a pain in the ass?
'She said she worked at an outlet, right?'
Through the conversation with the trainer, he was able to find out Ryu Inyoung's workplace.
He didn't know exactly which store in the outlet she worked at, but he figured out that she worked at a luxury store.
Isn't the timing quite good?
He was planning to go shopping today anyway.
"Oppa! Here! Here!"
As he came out of the gym building, Kim Hana waved her hand as if she had been waiting.
Eyes gathered on her beauty, body, and red foreign car.
Lee Hyunwoo got into Kim Hana's car while receiving those gazes.
"Oppa, aren't you working out too hard?"
"Why? You like it when I work out, too."
"Tsk, why would I like it? It's only good for you. If you get muscular, other bitches will stick to you more. Then my pussy will get even lonelier."
"Hahahat. That makes sense. Then should I cut down on working out?"
"Really? Ah, Oppa. Which department store shall we go to?"
Kim Hana acted very cutesy as she pulled out of the parking lot.
He couldn't stop laughing at her reckless aegyo and coquetry.
"Let's go to the Namsan Outlet, not a department store."
"Eek? Why! The shoes I want to buy are this year's new arrivals. They aren't at the outlet...."
"I'll buy those separately, so go to the outlet. There's something I need to do."
Lee Hyunwoo told her in detail what Ryu Inyoung was doing.
Then Kim Hana got furiously angry.
"Fuck! What kind of bitch is that? This won't do. Don't worry, Oppa. I'll take care of it for you. Women should deal with women. Messing with those kinds of sluts is easy. Leave it to me!"
"How are you going to do it?"
"That's easy. She's an outlet employee, right? Then just hit her with money. I've been on the receiving end of power trips a lot, so I know very well how shitty it feels to be on the receiving end. But our Oppa has a lot of money, right? Then it's over."
Oh, she's reliable.
It was the first time Kim Hana looked this reliable.
Lee Hyunwoo nodded.
The red foreign car drove toward Namsan Outlet.
By now, Ryu Inyoung would have arrived at work.
Since he saw her leaving the gym when Lee Hyunwoo was working his lower body hard.
"Then shall we start the treasure hunt?"
Lee Hyunwoo and Kim Hana searched the Namsan Outlet thoroughly from the first floor.
There was the purpose of finding Ryu Inyoung, but the main purpose of the day was to buy clothes that suited Lee Hyunwoo.
As they continued shopping like that.
They were able to find Ryu Inyoung at a luxury store.
She opened her mouth wide when she saw Lee Hyunwoo entering the store.
"Hana-ya."
"Yes, Oppa."
"Go and ask."
