“Ughh.”

“Seo Yerin.”

“Hm?”

As Kim Woojin limped and called her, Seo Yerin turned her head.

They were exhausted from playing and were now doing their own thing.

“Just one more chicken leg, please.”

“I ate them all.”

“I only had one though?”

“You should have spoken earlier.”

“Your teeth are so strong.”

Watching Kim Woojin look disappointed, Seo Yerin glanced at the last chicken leg beside her.

She wasn’t planning on keeping it; she just wanted to tease him.

‘……’

Suddenly, she remembered yesterday when Choi Yiseo fed French fries into Kim Woojin’s mouth.

Even though they were drinking, seeing how naturally she did it, she thought,

‘And the two aren’t dating.’

This meant that, even if they are friends, doing that shouldn’t be a problem.

Seo Yerin gulped and shoved the leg straight into the mouth of Kim Woojin, who desperately wanted it.

“Ugh!”

Kim Woojin grabbed his throat, suffering. Shocked, Seo Yerin began to pat him on the back.

“That hurts!”

“Does your throat hurt?! Do you want to throw up?”

“No, my back hurts!”

“Ah…”

Seo Yerin slowly removed her hand from Kim Woojin’s back, wondering if her recent workout had made her gain some strength and looked at her hand.

Chewing on the piece that Seo Yerin had put in his mouth, Kim Woojin glared at her.

“Are you an assassin? Trying to deep-throat me with that?”

“Wh-what!”

“At least put it in gently!”

Watching Kim Woojin chew on the leg, Seo Yerin’s face turned bright red.

Although Seo Yerin had received advances from men, this was the first time someone had made such an outright sexual joke.

From the start, Seo Yerin’s aura was mismatched with dirty jokes, embodying an innocent and pitiful vibe.

But.

‘Deep-throat.’

To be honest, that was in line with Seo Yerin’s taste.

Hiding her dirty mind, she felt strange watching Kim Woojin awkwardly munch on the food.

‘Woojin is doing it right.’

She wanted to crack that joke, but her lips refused to part.

There was a distinct boundary between Seo Yerin and her naughty side.

“Ah, darn.”

Kim Woojin tsked, nibbling on the leg as he scrolled down with the mouse wheel.

Glancing over, Kim Woojin was engrossed in a webtoon.

It was a youth drama set in a school, and Kim Woojin was visibly irritated; even his leg was fidgeting.

A guy surrounded by attractive girls, but unable to make a move.

“A man who can’t seize the moment. If it were me, I’d take one straight to a hotel.”

“You…”

“Ah, what? It’s not wrong.”

‘Does he always talk like this?’

She remembered Kim Woojin not being like this, but his crude talk was amusing.

Yet, in her own way, it was considerate of Kim Woojin.

Knowing Seo Yerin enjoyed this kind of banter, as he recognized her as the Admin, he spoke those words for her.

“If it were you, who would you choose?”

At Seo Yerin’s question, asking him to pick one of several women, Kim Woojin gulped and replied.

“Yes. This one.”

The mouse pointer hovered over a glamorous woman sporting glasses.

At first glance, she appeared innocent and pure.

“Isn’t the blonde one better?”

Although described as innocent, Seo Yerin chose a different character because she seemed plain.

A character who appeared strong yet kind to her own.

Could it be described as a tsundere vibe?

It was personally Seo Yerin’s preference, but the character was so well-crafted that it was clear a lot of effort had been put into her.

“Tsk.”

However, Kim Woojin had a negative reaction. He clicked his tongue, shaking his head.

“I don’t date women with strong personalities. It’s too much trouble.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes, just talking to a woman, and she’ll nitpick every word. Smile out of politeness, and she’ll make a scene. You don’t want to see her when she’s angry.”

“……”

“I once tried to join a club and looked around, and thought about joining the band? But it turned out to be all girls.”

“……”

“That night, I really thought I was going to die. Waiting in my room with just my underwear….”

Suddenly Kim Woojin went silent. Glancing to the side, Seo Yerin had an ambiguous look.

She was interested and wanted to keep listening, but the fact that it was Kim Woojin’s experience was what made her uncomfortable.

“Go on.”

Tap.

She pushed Woojin’s hand from her elbow and took over the armrest.

Leaning her chin on her hand, she urged him to continue, and Kim Woojin smiled.

“I’m looking for webtoon recommendations of that kind.”

“……”

Forcing her gaze away, Kim Woojin scrolled down, and Seo Yerin, feeling somewhat sulky, ended up watching the webtoon with him.

“What?!”

Characters in the webtoon suddenly began to take their clothes off, and engaging in sexual activities!

“Is-is this an adult webtoon?!”

“I am an adult.”

Kim Woojin calmly said.

Seo Yerin stared at the screen with her mouth open.

“W-woah!”

She covered her face with her hands as she watched an explicit scene, but her fingers were spread enough to peek through.

Her wide-open mouth seemed to revel in the erotic atmosphere of the webtoon.

“……”

She glanced at Kim Woojin when his mouse scroll wasn’t moving.

“Wh-what are you doing? It’s all moaning, haven’t you read it? Scroll down.”

“It’s paid content.”

“……”

“Buy it with your own money and watch.”

Seo Yerin pouted and shouted as Kim Woojin looked at her with a cold gaze, implying how dare she think of watching paid content for free.

“Give me the name. I’ll buy the entire series, but scroll down first! I’m curious about what happens next!”

“Put it in, shake it, and that’s all. You can pay and watch it.”

“I said scroll!”

Seo Yerin, who had stood up, began arguing with Kim Woojin. Despite the close distance, the two were in a struggle.

“Excuse me.”

A bland tone came from behind.

Jeong Chan-woo, like an actor in casual clothes, had an awkward smile and warned them.

“You cannot watch adult webtoons in a PC café.”

“……”

“……”

And so.

Both of them fell silent and sat back down, and Jeong Chan-woo also sighed and turned away.

“What’s the title of that?”

Seo Yerin asked.

“Have a good time.”

Kim Woojin answered indifferently, and Seo Yerin immediately searched it on her phone.

The slight pout on her lips showed anticipation.

“Nope?”

When there was no webtoon of that title, she looked back at Kim Woojin.

“Uh.”

Kim Woojin sneered and shrugged.

“No, you have a good time.”

“……”

Staring blankly at Kim Woojin, Seo Yerin nodded and declared.

“We break away from here.”


“So?”

Choi Yiseo, who had been kicking the blankets hard while thinking about the actions she took after drinking beer with Kim Woojin yesterday.

Since Minji, with whom she lived, had gone for volunteer service, she was feeling bored when she received a call from Kim Woojin and went out.

Shockingly, Kim Woojin suggested meeting at the gym.

“What are you two doing?”

Seo Yerin was also there.

As Choi Yiseo asked the two waiting at the gym, Seo Yerin answered with a determined look.

“Break away?”

“What? So you want to fight?”

“Sigh, listen, Choi Yiseo.”

Unable to understand, Kim Woojin approached Choi Yiseo and asked.

“If you’re a heavyweight champion and some kid from the neighborhood wants to fight, how would you feel? Pitiful, right?”

“……”

“That’s exactly how I feel right now. Like I’m holding a milestone handle. Absurd, right?”

“Bring it on, Kim Woojin.”

“You’ll end up dead if this continues.”

“Scared much?”

“Sc-scared?”

“Kim Woojin is scared.”

“Huh.”

Kim Woojin grunted as she brushed her bangs back.

“Come at me, woman! Think life is easy because you have a pretty face?”

Despite their talk of fighting, Choi Yiseo thought they were on the same level when she saw them in the gym. It didn’t seem like they were going to fight.

“Since strength-wise, Woojin will have the advantage, it’s better to do some aerobics.”

Choi Yiseo suggested a compromise.

Both of them stood on treadmills.

“Let’s see who runs longer at speed 10.”

“I’m really good at this.”

“Think you can beat me, who trained with human weapon Choi Yiseo?”

“The loser buys dinner tonight.”

“Dinner? Is that all you can handle, Seo? Let’s make it tomorrow’s meal too.”

“Throw in some jeolmyeon with pork loin cutlet.”

“…Both if you just start running.”

After a brief standoff, they both began to run. Choi Yiseo joined in because she was bored.

“Heuk! Heuk!”

It had only been 10 minutes, and Seo Yerin began to pant.

Even though she had started her gym training, it hadn’t been long since Seo Yerin began working out, so it could be understood.

After all, physical fitness doesn’t improve in a short period.

“Heuk! Heuk!”

‘A bit so.’

Seeing Seo Yerin almost moan, Choi Yiseo felt a bit embarrassed.

Men passing by were also glancing over, and some were even working out close by.

‘Compared to that.’

Kim Woojin had a steady run. Perhaps because his legs were longer than the women’s, the way he took his strides looked like a giraffe running.

‘He must have worked hard.’

Choi Yiseo felt a sense of pride watching Kim Woojin, who seemed to have no problem running at this pace for 10 minutes.

“……”

Taang!

Choi Yiseo, who had been closely watching Kim Woojin run, immediately pressed the emergency button on Kim Woojin’s treadmill.

“What is it? Why did you do that?”

Looking as if he wasn’t tired at all, Kim Woojin spoke after both treadmills stopped.

“Seo Yerin wins.”

“What? Why?”

Choi Yiseo bit her lip, looking at Kim Woojin shamelessly.

“You’re running at speed 4 and pretending to run.”

“…Don’t we get extra points for acting?”
