Chapter 815 – Ah, Mr. I’ll Just Do It With a Coupling… !

“No, I was just joking.”

“If you’re going to say something that isn’t even a joke, go home.”

“What is four hundred, four hundred? What do you order online? Then why are you here?”

“Jiheon. I don’t do that when ordering company stuff.”

“Hey. Hey. It’s okay. Just go with this bastard and do it yourself. That would be much more comfortable.”

I just joked about the budget, but all my girlfriends looked at me with contempt. Then he gave a kind smile to the clerk behind the glass ring display.

“Hey. Can I try this on?”

“What is that? Where is the product from?”

“Could you take out the 4th item from the left and the 2nd item from the top?”

“Please take this out. I’ll just try it on.”

Everyone was smiling as if they were wearing masks. Even so, Se-hee had twinkling dark blue eyes like a child, and Min-a also showed her face when she was the female president.

“Oh dear! This is so pretty!”

Especially, the demon king was the most shocking. He stopped his archaic tone and looked down at the ring on his ring finger. She used to be like a keut, but it was a little strange to see her talking excitedly like a normal woman.

“Hey, the groom? Groom?”

“Uh, ah. Yes.”

It was only after the staff called several times that I realized that I was the groom. She proudly pointed to the ring stand at me, who finally felt that we were getting married.

“Would you like to see the groom? It’s not like the bride should wear it alone.”

“Ah yes. Yes.”

“Sure. Uh, I recommend this one.”

The staff who told me must have been mistaken. Not all the girls chattering over there, only one of them would be my bride.

“Because the groom’s skin is a bit darker now. Because these colors can go well together?”

All she took out were dark colored rings. From basic yellow gold to slightly reddish gold. The staff described it as yellow gold and rose gold.

“I have to try it once. Could you give me a hand?”

“Ah yes. Here you go.”

Her right hand was tattooed a little so she held out her left hand. Then, the employee picked up each of her rings and compared them to the skin on the back of my hand.

“Umm, I think rose gold would suit the groom’s skin color. Is there any design you want?”

“Uh, that’s it.”

She lowered her head and looked through the glass at the rings. All of them were shiny and studded with colored jewels, but it was difficult to notice any difference.

“Uh, that, for now.”

Suddenly, when she was in middle school, she remembered going into a cosmetics store. I just went to buy lotion, but I came out as if running away in a cold sweat, thinking that the atmosphere didn’t suit me at all.

“Poetry, with the bride, I’ll discuss it, and I’ll come.”

“Ah yes. Please.”

“Then, excuse me.”

Feeling no different from then, I hurriedly walked toward my resting place. Before I knew it, the girlfriends standing in front of other shelves were looking at the ring without paying attention to me.

“Sehee, Sehee, Sehee, how about this? Doesn’t it go well with Jim? I just did it according to the color of my eyes.”

“Unnie’s eyes are on the paler side, but it definitely doesn’t suit them.”

“Yes that’s right. I like Catseye. Isn’t it similar to the color of my eyes?”

“But. Because it’s so different Uh, but, please take this out.”

“Hey, hey, kids! Stay with me! With me!”

I hurriedly ran away from the staff and forced myself in between the girls. Intervening between Se-hee and Min-ah, I asked the two of them.

“What. Did you find something you like?”

“Not yet.”

“Yes, I found it.”

Unlike Sehee who shook her head, Mina nodded her head right away. She also asked her, admiring the determination of a small business owner.

“What? What did you choose?”

“I picked these.”

“… These?”

It was not a ring that Mina took out and showed, saying she had chosen it, but a smartphone. She showed me the pictures of the ring that she must have taken while looking around earlier.

“Jiheon, which ring do you like? I will choose with that.”

“Uh, can I choose?”

“Wasn’t Jiheon going to wear it?”

“No, it is, but…”

Mina’s words of choice were a complete lie. Even as she stared at me as if asking why, her long, neat fingers continued to flick through the screen of her smartphone.

“You. You.”

At this time, the demon king saved me. She said that a little bit, but she turned around behind Se-hee and approached me, showing me the ring she was wearing and showing off earlier.

“Isn’t this pretty? They are very similar to Jim’s pupils!”

“Wow, it’s really pretty.”

The ring she showed was studded with blue jewels, so it looked good with the blue-eyed Demon King. I asked her reassuringly while admiring her pretty figure.

“Then what are you going to do with it?”

“Hmm? There are still so many pretty things, but is that so?”

“No, wasn’t it decided?”

“I showed you that I was pretty, but I didn’t decide. There is still a long way to go.”

The words that followed were more despairing than the words that it was a long time away.

“And you’ve been here less than 10 minutes, how did you pick?”

10 minutes? Less than 10 minutes?

Startled, she put her hand into the pocket of her coat. When I took out her smartphone and looked at it, not even 10 minutes had passed, as the demon king said.

“Brother Brother.”

But the world did not leave you in despair.

“Brother, is this better, or is this better?”

It just didn’t give me a chance to fall.

“Uh, so.”

“Tell me quickly. Is dia good? Or is sapphire better?”

When the demon king went to see something else, Se-hee approached and held out two silver rings alternately. One was studded with a white and clean-looking diamond, and the other was studded with dark blue jewels like her pupils.

“Ah, this. I left. Left is better.”

After thinking about it for a while, I chose the more eye-catching blue color. However, Se-hee frowned.

“This one? Is this really good?”

“Uh, no, look closely, the one on the right is,”

“Seriously, brother. Don’t be sloppy.”

“I am serious.”

“Ah, that’s all right. I’ll try some more.”

I already wanted to go home.

“Oh, hey. Hey hey hey. Hey. How about this?”

Tak Tak Tak

Taeyeon tapped me on the shoulder from behind to get my attention. When she turned her head, she was asking with her earring, not her ring, on her earlobe.

“Do you like this design better? Or this?”

“No, we were supposed to come buy a ring.”

“I came to see you, asshole. Just watching this too. Hey. What is better?”

“Uh, for now.”

Still, since she is my girlfriend whom I love, I took all her heart with the thought of taking her seriously. Now, with a serious gaze, Taeyeon brought it to her ear and looked at her earring.

“Oh, okay. Let’s see something else.”

“Uh, hey?!”

“It’s noisy, bitch. Aren’t you quiet?”

She lowered her hand on her earring and turned her body as if to go somewhere else. Even when I called, of course they didn’t come back.

“Haaa… No, just us, uh. What.”

She looked around her, intending to ask if she could make a quick pick. But no one was left around me. Even the staff who took out the ring from the display stand.

“What. Where have they all gone?”

My bewildered self-talk was useless. All four of my girlfriends were looking at the ring separately, and an employee was attached to them one by one to explain.

“Hmm, is this good?”

“Yes. This is a design originally from the British royal family. It’s a simple yet consistently popular design.”

“What is the name of this jewel?”

“You know Topaz. It’s cost-effective, so it’s mostly used by young newlyweds. Instead, if you have a good budget, you can use sapphire in some cases.”

“Here you go. Do you have any yellow gold ones? It doesn’t suit my skin tone.”

“Sorry, guest. There is no yellow gold in this design. How about this one instead? It’s a color that suits people with darker skin tone, like our customer.”

“As expected, the wedding ring must be a diamond, right?”

“You know most of them. But there are many other gems too. If you look at Ruby here, it comes out very well.”

My heart skipped a beat at the incessant voice. Her head hurt more and more from the stress than when she fell alone to find Hyeon-soo.

“Ah, Mr. I’ll just do it with a coupling… !”

I didn’t know that I would be punished like this for buying a wedding ring needlessly. I slowly walked toward the sofa over there to get rid of this weight.

“Me, a guest?”

The staff came to me with a friendly smile. I was afraid that I would suggest her ring for a moment, but what she handed me was a paper cup with hot coffee.

“Would you like some of this?”

“Ah yes. Thank you.”

He took the paper cup with trembling hands. I sipped my coffee cautiously, feeling the heat through the thin paper.

“Hurpe! Oh, that’s better.”

“Are you having a hard time?”

The staff smiled when they saw me recovering energy thanks to the sweet mix coffee. She continued to talk to me until I walked over to the sofa and sat down.

“The prospective grooms who come here are often tired. Sit down and rest a little.”

“Ah yes. Thank you…”

“If you need more hot drinks, just let me know. Excuse me then.”

The staff who talked to me kindly greeted me politely and left. Thanks to that, I can sit comfortably on the sofa and relax while sipping coffee.

“Ah, really. Hump!”

As I sipped coffee in succession, I thought of people remarrying. I was really curious about how it felt to go through this hard once and do it again.

Oh I really am I want to get married only once in this life. It’s hard, so how do you do this.

I grumbled like this on the inside, but I couldn’t help laughing when I saw my girlfriends excitedly choosing rings. It was always beautiful to see loved ones happy.

“Oh! You! What if we rest there! You are not getting married!”

“Brother! Come quickly and see what’s okay!”

“Now is not the time to rest, Jiheon. Come and see which of these is pretty.”

“Hey! If so, go home!”

“Ah, let me rest… !”

It wasn’t that hard, though.

“When the ring is complete, you can come and pick it up. One for men, one for women, uh, 4? Could this be right for you?”

“Yes that’s right. Then how much is it?”

“So the total amount,”

“That’s Okay. Just pay with this.”

“Yes?”

“Not in installments, but in lump sum. Since the payment limit has been lifted, you can just scratch it.”

“Uh, yes. Wait a minute. Then the receipt is,”

“Please, receipt. Can I sign your autograph here?”

Sasasac!

“I haven’t paid yet, sir.”

“… It seems Jiheon is tired.”

“We had a lot of fun. Isn’t it?”

“Yes. It was a lot of fun.”

“I just came to see. I will buy it again.”
