Chapter 6 – Episode 6

It was a very proud situation.
That’s right, it’s pretty amazing that a cock that didn’t stand up for her is standing up again.
Is not it?

He honestly thought that as a man he should be congratulated for this.
By the way…

“Whatever.”

Whatever?
No, he asked if he could and…

“Tsk, still unlucky.”

Ahn Ki-pyo clicked his tongue and looked at me over and said.

“Hmm, there is something that Loyalty asked for. Anyway, the good news is that the hottest guy at our host bar is back.”
“…”

Ahn Ki-pyo deliberately blurted out the end of his words and dragged on.
That made me even more nervous.

‘It’s like a damn snake.’

I guess this is age?
In terms of individual ability alone, I would definitely be much better than Gi-pyo Ahn, but that was the reason he was still holding onto the manager position of popular Valentia.
Ahn Ki-pyo is well-liked and at the same time handles people well.

“It seems to have changed a little, but to be honest, I don’t fully trust it. So I’ll have to wait a little longer.”
“What does that mean…”
“One month.”

Gi-pyo Ahn said as he tossed a rolling mop from the cleaning box right next to him in front of my feet.

“For the next month, you will be cleaning the restroom. Then I’ll let you accept it.”

At that moment, I was involuntarily crying, and something was about to come up in my heart.
To be honest, I put up with it a lot.

Sure, toilet cleaning?
It has to be done.

But it wasn’t that I didn’t have any pride or anything at all.
Even the small act of throwing a mop in front of my feet and Ki-pyo Ahn’s mocking expression made me mad.

“Seed…”

This is the moment when curse words are about to come out of your mouth reflexively.
What stopped me this time was Miho’s voice.

“Chippa! Bitch!」

What did I say then?

“That’s a word you shouldn’t use. OK?”
“Sigh! It clings to your mouth! Shit, bitch!”

I can’t help but laugh out loud.

“… Sincerely, I will clean it so that no one knows if someone accidentally trips over it.”
“Oh, I’ll make you look forward to it.”

Perhaps my answer was unexpected, Ahn Gi-pyo showed a puzzled expression for the first time in his life. Soon after, he lightly tapped my shoulder and went back into the hall where the counter was.
Gi-pyo Ahn was about to raise his middle finger, albeit belatedly, when he suddenly opened the door and pushed his face back.

“Hey, Hyunwoo Kim!”
“Yes!”
“Not bad, that attitude. You, you bastard, went through some difficulties for a while, and now you feel like an adult. Got it?”
“Uh, ah, thank you!”

Gi-Pyo Ahn, who was treated like that just a while ago and was even punished with an unfair punishment of cleaning the bathroom for a month.

‘A person who didn’t praise even once when he was ranked #1 in the host nomination rate…’

… Is this what it really feels like to be acknowledged and praised by your boss?

For the first time in my life, this feeling wasn’t too bad.

「Tuk Tuk」

“Clean the bathroom, do your best. I honestly thought you would swing your fist because you were angry. To be honest, the store manager would have provoked it on purpose.”
“That person has a really dirty personality.”
“You’re too formidable, you son of a bitch. By the way… Like the manager said, you seem to have grown up a bit.”
“Cha, really…”

I was embarrassed and snorted.
So what?
Did he just look like a mischievous kid before?

“I am going back to work. Do your best to clean the bathroom. Would you like to have a drink later? The nominations won’t come in today anyway.”
“Alcohol?”

Totally fine
Even if it was a comeback commemoration, I didn’t know if I could take a bite out of the store manager.
However…

“… Oh, thanks for the suggestion. I guess not today.”
“Uh? Are you turning down the drink offer? If it’s because I don’t have money, I buy it.”
“Not like that.”

I was about to talk about Miho, but if the word about having a child came out for no reason, it wouldn’t be good from the host’s point of view, so I just covered it up.

“Mistress, there is such a thing. Instead, I kept the drink they were told to buy. You must buy it later.”
“I got it, you son of a bitch.”
“Then I’m going to clean the bathroom.”
“OK.”

It felt so strange to wave my hand and pick up the mop without fault even though I was Park Eui-ri.

“…”

The girls who want to meet me at the top of the nomination rate even made reservations and gave me a bundle of money…
How could I be more proud of holding the mop like this now?

“… Did you get shot in the head?”

Laughing stupidly alone, I quietly moved to find the bathroom. It wasn’t difficult to go to the toilets as much as the office worker I had worked for nearly a year.
As soon as I opened the door, the peculiar smell of the toilet that I couldn’t help even with air freshener stung my nose, but I didn’t really care.

Hehe,heheung!”

「Cheolpeok, Cheolpuduk!」

I even hummed and rubbed the mop on the floor with joy.
Again, I didn’t know that the fact that I got a job at the same job I used to work at would reassure people so much.

“I’ll finish the cleaning quickly, talk to the manager, and let’s get off work here today.”

In order to return to her duties her as a host a little faster, she needed to get back to her relationship by running errands from this evening onwards, but Miho came first today.
I promised to buy something delicious and go home by the time I wake up.

「Splash, slap!」

How hard did you have to clean it to the point of making a loud noise?

「Jibeok jeok jeok!」

The sound of shoes came from far away.
But this sound was by no means a woman’s heels. It was the sound of shoes worn by men, and furthermore, worn by the hosts.

‘Sir, I think you’re coming this way?’

I knew that since I returned to this job anyway, I would have no choice but to face the hosts who work here again.
My heart is already pounding as I am about to face it again.

Even…

“Beep, bang!”

“Lee Yeol, who is this! The pride of our Valentia, isn’t it Kim Hyun-woo, who boasted Valentia’s undisputed No. One!”
“Whoops! Woohoo!”

It was all the more so because it was clear that the fucking bastards were here to tease. In the first place, there were few cases where the hosts got along well.
In particular, the difference between the money the top nomination rate earns and the money earned by the guys below it is staggering.
I took it for granted that I would be greatly jealous.
In the first place, I couldn’t be friends with those guys.
It was the same even now.

“It’s fucking sarcastic. Why? Are you afraid that if I come back, your small income will disappear altogether?”
“… What? Ha, take a look at this bastard!

Fuckin’ pups.

Those idiots who couldn’t even make it into the top 10 in the nomination rate, those who acted as extras who played the tambourine and made the main character stand out were always good at these things.

「Chwaaaaa.」

These are the two hosts who overturn the water bucket containing excrement on the hard-cleaned floor.

“Oops, sorry. Did your foot slip? Would you hit me if you felt unfair?”
“Seed…”
“Hey, I guess I’ve become a human. Our swearing person Hyeonu tolerates all swearing.”

Yes, I was trying to put up with the swearing.
However…

“Don’t get into a fight and get out of here. I’ll just let it pass this time. Whatever it is, you’ll see it again and again in the future. We don’t have to be tired every time we see each other, right?”

I guess I’ve become a real adult.
If it had been before, he might have swung his fist right away, but he was trying to pass the situation smoothly with such cool words.

“… Does that fucking bastard still look at people as fucking water?”
“What bullshit! No, isn’t that ridiculous?”

If it goes well, we like each other, but I couldn’t understand why they were trying to see the end.

[It must mean that I hated you so much that I couldn’t turn back.]
[If you already have a shaving in your eye, no matter what you say, it will only come as annoyance. So you should have done well.]

So, what else can I do here?
After all, those pups were no different from me in the past. I wouldn’t know if it was Park Eui-ri or Ahn Gi-pyo, but I also had no intention of bowing my head and apologizing to those bastards.
I, Kim Hyeon-woo, was impossible to become that kind even if the sky was split in half.

「Wow!」

One of the hosts grew as he grabbed me by the collar.

“Hey, Hyunwoo Kim. Fuck you young laborer, listen carefully.”
“…”
“Let’s come back now and come back, there is no place for you. Got it? Just clean the poop like that for the rest of your life and live quietly as if you were dead.”

Look at this.
In the end, isn’t it just a mongrel that barks because it looks like its rice bowl will be taken away?
I had no intention of bowing down to a guy like this.

“Let go, you bastard.”

“Widely!”

I roughly shook the guy’s hand that was holding me by the collar, then in reverse grabbed him by the collar and pushed me.

“… Ugh!”

Then, in an instant, the situation changed.
No, conversely, he was pushed so easily by me that a picture was made of him clinging to the wall. The host who grabbed me by the collar was startedled.
At the same time, I was also surprised.

‘What?’

No, what is it really?
Was I this strong? Or maybe the guy in front of him was too weak compared to how he looked.
Anyway, if the manager sees this scene, it’s kind of embarrassing.
I had no intention of solving it with violence.

“It’s fucking funny for a host to say things like this, but if you’re a host, let’s compete with techniques that satisfy women like our host.”

It was then.

“This bastard is all the way! Won’t you let go of that hand?”

The kid who had been watching from the side suddenly sped up, picked up a rolling mop, and swung it at me.

… Fuck you, fuck you.

The attack was so sudden that it was impossible to avoid.
If I get hit by that, I think there will be even a small scar on my already bruised face.

It’s the moment when I close my eyes without realizing it.

“Widely!”

I must have felt a little strange.
I definitely thought that a dull sound and dizzying pain would attack me, but it was strangely quiet.

“What are the hosts doing huddled together in the bathroom?”
“…”

When I opened my eyes, Park Eui-ri, who was huge enough to make the mop look shabby, was holding it very lightly with one hand.
Looking at it again, it was a fucking absurd physical.
Did I, even after being punched by someone like that, only end up with a black eye?

‘It was really fortunate.’

Even after breathing a sigh of relief at the help of Park Ui-ri, it is the moment when you realize what those bastards were trying to do and try to get angry.

“The ruined host and the gatekeeper are a good combination.”
“They say they get together. Uh huh, tsk. Hey, let’s go smoke a cigarette.”

They say rats are good at running away.

“Like funny bastards. No, are you okay with that?”

When Park Eui-ri secretly let go of luck in the hope that he would hit those children one by one, Park Eui-ri said with a nonchalant expression.

“That level is ridiculous. And is it because the person hired to protect the host beats the host?”
“That too, but…”

… Wait, then why did you hit me?

“Rather than that, Kim Hyun-woo.”
“Yes?”

Park Eui-ri said while picking up the mop instead of me.

“Go, the store manager was looking for you.”

Eh?
Why?

* * *

On the other hand, Miho’s sound sleep, which she thought she would be sleeping well in Kim Hyun-woo’s studio, did not last very long.

“Catch them all! Elves are sold at a high price!」
「Furr rrrr rrrr!」

“Ah, uh uh… !”

Miho broke out in a painful cold sweat and clutched at his chest her, then swallowed the empty wind and stood up.
And the moment I looked around urgently, I was able to recall where this place was.
Also, what Kim Hyun-woo said to himself.

“Don’t worry too much, I’ll be right back. You’ll be there when you wake up.”

“… Tongue?”

Miho, who looked around while calling his name her in a small voice, muttered in a disappointed voice that he didn’t feel any presence.

“Goddammit…”

Still, I said it would come soon.

“One, two, tatt, four…”

I’ll be back soon.
