“Mr. Seol Woojin is not an unfortunate man. Just like us going to work diligently even if we catch a cold or break a leg, he is someone who works hard in uncomfortable situations. So, he is achieving results. I respect him.”

Her sincere, low-toned voice had the power to prevent the other person from further resistance.

The friends, who always looked innocent and immature, were stunned by the expression they saw for the first time. This… is genuine.

“Huh? What’s this? Seongha Resort?”

Having stayed up all night chatting with Woojin, Sooyoung, still half-asleep, tilted her head at the paper her mom was holding out.

“Mom, where did you enter the raffle?”

“Huh? Your name is there. Didn’t you enter it?”

“No, I didn’t…”

“Well, think about it. You might have absentmindedly applied while browsing the internet.”

“Really?”

Seongha Resort was one of the top three resorts in Korea. A voucher for accommodation had been won, and an invitation had arrived from a newly built resort near Seoul.

“Great! Should we go there for the Lunar New Year?”

Asked with an excited expression, as she didn’t have relatives to visit on holidays, Yeongsun nodded, thinking her daughter wouldn’t be given work at the company on that day.

Come to think of it, she had never been on a trip alone with her daughter. She was always busy and had a small family.
I thought it would be nice to spend time together during this opportunity and perhaps restore the strained relationship with my daughter due to my work as a writer.

“Here, it can accommodate up to four people. You should ask that teacher senior to join us too.”

Upon hearing Yeongsun’s words, Sooyoung sighed deeply, as if telling her to listen.

Since when, her mom kept making statements that seemed to connect Yeonho and herself.

Whether it’s Senior So or Mom, they should have done it earlier. It’s already too late after falling head over heels for Seol Woojin.

Sooyoung, in a boastful and suggestive manner, mentioned the resort to Woojin. However, Woojin didn’t seem surprised. Instead, he put on an impression as if he had been there and started criticizing.

“It’s expensive there, and it’s not that great.”

“Have you been there?”

“I’ve been to other branches. A long time ago.”

It was a place they used to go to every year when the ski season came.

Several times, friends followed to enjoy the privileges that the owner’s grandson received.

But to receive an invitation to a newly built resort… to Sooyoung’s house…

He immediately recognized it as something Grandpa did but pretended not to know. What kind of scheme is he planning?

“So, are you going with your mom?”

“Of course. We can’t miss this kind of luck. Besides, I’ve never been on a trip alone with my mom. As for Mr. Seol Woojin… he can’t come here, right?”

It’s near Seoul, so he could probably come if he wanted, but there might be too many people, and he might be worried.

“There will be a lot of people during the holidays. I don’t like it.”

“What if we just stay in the room…?”

“Why would I go there just to stay in the room?”

“I’ll secretly go at night. To Mr. Seol Woojin’s room.”

“Are you coming to my room at night to do something inappropriate?”

“Huh? I just want to read a book. What does Mr. Seol Woojin want to do?”

“Kim Sooyoung. Just tell the truth. Do you want to see other places now? Isn’t it enough just to see your face?”

“What are you talking about…”

Even though she looked at him with disdain, the thought of his tight and slender body came to mind, causing her voice to tremble slightly at the end.

Unexpectedly, as if he understood, he nodded and gave a sly smile.

“I said no!”

As the thief who stepped on his foot shouted, Woojin answered smoothly.

“Who said what? Why are you excited? What came to your mind?”

“Uh, ugh…”

Woojin shook the braille manuscript in front of him like a fan, saying, “I get it, cool down.”

“What do I need to cool down!”

While Sooyoung lightly tapped his back of the hand, Woojin just laughed out loud.

Even his clear and youthful laughter made the surroundings refreshing, like birds flying around.

Not as comfortable as his house, but the small meeting room was as fresh as a flower garden every day.

In a neat short jacket with two buttons, a full skirt, and wavy hair, the already pretty woman looked even more beautiful as she showed off her charm.

“Is Yeonho suitable for a teacher? Are the kids cute?”
The woman who majored in ballet mentioned that she wanted to teach children herself, even though she’s in college. However, she was saying that she doesn’t look cute at all as a college student.

Even though she was just talking about her profession, in Yeonho’s ears, it sounded like she was saying, “I teach kids at the university, and you teach high schoolers.”

As soon as Yeonho became a teacher, his mother proudly introduced him to various women.

Due to the exaggerated pretense of having a significant social status because teaching brings a pension later, the women introduced were ordinary women who preferred stable jobs with men.
