Chapter 278 – Episode 278

When the subway arrives, people rush in.

“Sorry!”

“I’ll go in!”

… While saying the same thing, he pushes me with his shoulder and comes in. It’s a little absurd. I know this because I went through the hell of commuting hours. Even then, it wasn’t like this.

I can clearly see that people are pushing in this direction.

The reason is obvious.

‘Wow, these bastards are secretly trying to rub up against women?’

Somehow.

Even before the subway arrived, a bunch of guys was standing in line just on our side. People who were trying to pass by were so startled that they couldn’t pass by. When I see things like this, I don’t have anything to say to my friends. There were many men in the world who were so infatuated with women.

“Wow, there are so many people.”

“I know. There are definitely a lot of people using the subway.”

“It’s amazing.”

Oh Ha-na is thoughtless, Han Ae-bom has never used the subway much, and Yun Soo-a is just pure.

I had to hold on to protect the innocent reactions of these three. Fortunately, we arrived a little early. These three were huddled together in a corner. I am protecting the three women stuck in that corner with my back.

“I’ll go inside a little bit!”

“Please come in just a little bit!”

We could have just gone to another compartment, but we decided to gather everyone here and form this division. There isn’t a lot of room in the other spaces either.

It wouldn’t have been gathered like bean sprouts like here.

In particular, guys who are a bit big or have tattoos and look tough even try to get closer to me by subtly pushing my back.

“Miss, let’s go inside.”

“It’s so narrow, it’s really killing me.”

I don’t know if it’s because I look too much of a dick, or if those guys are just bullies, or if it’s just because the girls, including Ohana, are so pretty.

As I watched the guys trying to get closer somehow, I silently covered them all with my back.

‘I understand why confidence is one of the reasons men need to exercise.’

To be honest, if it were me in the past, I would have been scared as if my heart would explode in this situation, and at the same time, those guys would have seen it too. Then these guys will be more proud and will use force to achieve what they want.

But, I wasn’t who I am now.

He had the stamina not to flinch even when larger cubs rattled him or even pushed him on the back.

There really isn’t even a slight movement of 0.1.

Rather, it was much more powerful to see the women gathered in front of me reaching out and touching various parts of my body out of boredom.

I don’t know why Han Ae-bom is checking her armpits so much, and Oh Hana is probably poking my dick in the meantime. Yoon Su-ah is secretly clinging to me and rubbing her chest. All she had to do was be happy.

“Hi-Hi. Hehe.”

“Hmm.”

I don’t know what’s so good about it. The smiles never end on the faces of women poking and touching my body.

It was the same for me too. Should I say that a sweetness that feels like my teeth are rotting rises from inside my chest? You’re in love with this taste, right?

‘If it were me in the past, I would have peeked at her and shook my head. It’s ugly.’

In fact, during her college days, when she went to an arcade to play rhythm games with her friends, in front of the claw machine, a woman hugged a man from behind and kept touching something. She’s been begging her not to, but she’s never seen a girl she likes better.
At that time, even though we were stupid, we were really stupid. Instead of being able to make a fuss behind him, he was so overwhelmed by the momentum that he left the arcade for a moment.

‘Hmm. Even now that I think about it, I think it’s really stupid.’

Should I have said something instead? Now the sacred arcade… No, what are you doing in a public place?

No. If I had said something back then, I don’t think I would have been able to enjoy it as confidently as I do now. In some ways, it may be a blessing that I never had to get caught by anyone as an idiot.

They say there is no one in the world who doesn’t get dust from dusting.

In my case, the dust that will come out is, well, if I think about it carefully, it doesn’t come to mind… Maybe living as an idiot isn’t necessarily a bad thing?

‘At least when I succeed in the future, I won’t have to go through the abyss of school bullying or other controversies.’

If I got hit by someone, I got hit.

I am very fortunate that I have never hit a friend, even as a joke.

Now, I have no one who can match me physically, and at the same time, I live my life looking forward to getting married to such pretty women. Well, I guess no one knows what will happen in the world.

[After a while, we arrive at Xinhong Station. The door to get off is on the right.]

“You have to get off here, brother.”

“Okay.”

Xinhong, a recently emerging fashion street.

There was also a store here that only sold swimsuits. Originally, I was thinking of going to a department store in a more famous downtown area. Should we say that the word ‘department store’ alone causes fear of prices?

At least for me, department stores were places I only went to when I went to the movie theater.

“Soo-ah, stick close to me. Because someone might hit it.”

“Yes!”

I held onto the hand of Yoon Su-ah, who responded cheerfully, and got off after asking for everyone’s understanding. Oh, Hana! and Han Ae Bom had already gotten off leisurely.

“I saw this guy who looked like a gorilla kept glancing at us, brother.”

“You’re the kid behind me, right?”

“Ok! That bastard looked at me so blatantly that it was dumbfounding. Usually, when our eyes meet, we avoid eye contact. In fact, he even smiled at me. Oh my, your eyes are filled with dirty desires! Those guys are the ones looking for women who will give them a try and hit on them all the time.”

Ohana is shocked that she has experienced this once or twice.

A baby next to her opens her mouth.

“Not everyone is like that. There are more people who avoid eye contact because they think it’s rude than people who don’t actually avoid eye contact. I just felt it too. Because people who openly harbor lust for us like just now are more noticeable than the 99 people who are quiet.”

“There aren’t people like that among people who work at large companies, right, sister?”

Everyone nods at Ohana’s words and looks at Aebom.
Then, Aebom snorts.

“Not necessarily. That’s a real prejudice. There are a lot of people who work at large companies, especially the smart ones, who are trash. Even at prestigious universities, incidents and accidents happen. Incidents and accidents happen even in large companies. However, in the case of large companies, they usually handle it in a way that the news does not reach the outside world. Even a little bit of bad news can have a huge impact on the stock price.”

“Ah… That’s what it is.”

“Right. “For an individual, 5 percent may not be a very big figure, but from a large company’s perspective, 5 percent is a truly ridiculous figure.”

For some reason, Aebom strokes the head of Ohana, who innocently nods her head. She usually only asks strange questions, but for the first time in a long time, she was asked a proper question. She was a little cuter than me.

“It’s much better to be outright trash like those people. It’s easy to deal with.”

“…”

“But the really smart ones don’t show it at all and then blow up big time. It’s a real pain in the ass. That’s why there are always teams in the company who monitor and manage such things, and furthermore, the process of approving a task becomes more and more complicated.”

“Ugh, my head hurts.”

“That’s roughly what it feels like.”

As a child, she seemed to be in a good mood. It’s definitely the same for Oh Hanam and Han Aebom.

What should I say? I can feel their faces coming to life when they tell these types of stories. I really don’t know where the fun is in such a stiff story.

Being interested in stories like that in itself means that you have some talent as a manager, right?

Meanwhile, let’s come out of the station’s exit. A huge crowd of people is visible, including at the meeting plaza. In particular, my mouth drops when I see the number of people standing in line in front of the crosswalk.

The crowd I saw on the subway earlier was at a cute level.

‘Ugh, I feel like I’m getting excited just by looking at something.’

This is the opposite of me.

“Wow! There are so many people! Whoa, it feels like people are living here!”

“There are really a lot.”

Oh Hana and Yoon Su-a’s eyes are shining as they see the enormous crowd of people. Han Ae-bom just has a face that is neither uncomfortable nor comfortable.

By the way, they said it was a fashion street. The level of fashion of people walking around is quite high.

Furthermore, you can see a lot of tall, well-toned men and women.

‘And… It seems like a bunch of aspiring celebrities are gathered over there.’

In fact, seeing that she was walking around with a selfie stick and taking videos, it seemed like she might be a real celebrity.
If you look in the far corner, you can also see a group busking.

If you watch in a daze, you will understand why so many people work hard to take care of themselves. Taking care of yourself increases your confidence and self-esteem. Being prettier and more handsome than others is itself a class.

“Hey, look over there.”

“… I’m tired.”

“Wow, it’s gorgeous. “Have you had plastic surgery?”

“I don’t think you did? It seems completely natural. But I can’t believe she’s that kind of beauty.”

In that sense, the women I was with were no different from the top predators here.

Oh Ha-na shows off her lively charm, Han Ae-bom shows off the feel of a successful businesswoman, and even Yoon Su-ah is like a goddess of kindness and warmth.

The stinging gaze is focused on this direction so that even a fool can feel it.

It was only natural that some of those gazes would stick to me, like falling bean curds.

“But why does that man hang around with those women?”

“Isn’t it the same as nursing school? A completely female department. “I was the only man there.”

“I am completely imprisoned.”

“Gasp!”

If there are people who receive praise, there are also people who receive harsh criticism. Especially in Korea, comparative culture is overwhelming.

As women are receiving positive reviews, I am receiving corresponding criticism.

The moment Yoon Su-ah holds my hand tightly and Ohana crosses her arms, empty air bursts out from all around her. That’s not all, Aebom gave a strong glare with her sharp eyes, and everyone averted their gaze.

Envy and jealousy, which could have been a little uncomfortable, have now made me lift my shoulders. I feel like it’s tickling.

If you meet friends, you can feel this a little more clearly, right?

Without stopping the corners of my mouth that were naturally rising, I confidently walked down the fashion street with the three women.

After walking for about 30 minutes, I arrived at the swimsuit store I wanted to visit.

[Summer Life]

On the internet, it said it was a store that only sold swimsuits. Contrary to what I heard, in addition to swimsuits, you can also see short-sleeved T-shirts and accessories such as hats and bracelets. It may be because it is a large store with over 15 changing rooms, so even taking that into account, there was a huge amount of swimsuits lined up.

“Welcome… “Please.”

“Hello. “Can I look around a little more slowly?”

“Well, of course. Take your time and look around to your heart’s content.”

[Our store never puts a burden on our customers. Take your time and enjoy the sights as much as possible. Don’t feel pressured and try it on.]

… The owner, who was sitting at the counter with a sign saying, was startled, but finally calmed down. You probably thought there was a celebrity coming in, right?

I glanced underneath the sign. You can also see the words that were hastily added.

[However, in case of malicious damage to the swimsuit, compensation may be requested. We would appreciate your understanding on this point. This is because sometimes there are people who intentionally ruin their swimsuits while trying them on. I am truly sorry.]

The quality of the sign was different, as was how urgently it was written.

Looking at things like this, you can see how many idiots there are in the world. I often felt this while working part-time at a convenience store, but there are a lot of strange people in the real world.

While shaking my head, I turn to the women’s swimsuit corner and my mouth falls open.

It’s a shame, though.

The snow was fun.
