The Divorced Man Has Returned chapter 26

The Divorced Man Has Returned 26

#26. Dare to ignore my warning…?

Sihwa and Harin had a completely different drink taste.

If Harin preferred sweet drinks, Sihwa preferred the bitter taste.

“Two iced Americanos.”

In this context, the poem and the story worked better than Harin.

We bought coffee and sat down with a table in the middle, looking at the people in the noisy store.

Amman told me to fill it with coffee, but I had to convey my thanks properly.

“Thank you, Shihwa.”

“Not at all.”

Sihwa chewed on the tip of the straw and answered.

She knew she was wealthy, of course, but she thought she was overly cool. Yoo Shihwa.

Well. Considering the amount she would earn after graduation, this amount was nothing.

“Choi Inwook.”

“Huh?”

After taking a bite of coffee, Sihwa asked me.

“…Have you become close with Yun Harin?”

I don’t know why Harin suddenly comes out, but at first I nodded her head.

“Ah, yes. Because we are a pair. We practice together often. We also sit next to each other.”

“Yes?”

Sihwa looked at my face while stirring the ice with a straw.

“Why Harin?”

“Just. It seems to stick to you a little too much that morning.”

That day was definitely the morning of the day I came for an interview.

I confessed to me, but it didn’t look like I was too friendly with other women.

“It’s because Harin is such a sociable friend. Ahaha.”

It actually did.

Harin has always been a popular child for her bright personality and cute appearance.

“That’s right.”

After those words, there was silence between us.

From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Naturally, I wanted to move on to another topic, but I couldn’t because Sihwa was seriously thinking about something.

“Choi Inwook.”

I could feel the power in her body slightly unwittingly in her very serious tone.

“Yes.”

“After all, do you also like to be friendly and friendly girls?”

Hmm… This is a rather difficult question…

At this time in my previous life, I would have answered that it was 100% correct.

Because Harin was infinitely close to my ideal type.

But now, it was difficult for me to agree with that statement with certainty.

The three ex-wives were people with very dazzling charms.

They were too different to be ranked.

And I knew the charm of Sihwa better than anyone.

Dating with Sihwa was completely different from dating with Harin.

They were completely far from the ideal type of couple who were beaten to death and chattering back and forth.

It was rather the opposite. Sihwa was a clumsy person in love.

Strictly educated by her indifferent parents, she was cynical about her relationships with people.

There were no true friends or lovers in her life.

She wasn’t weak enough to depend on her relationships with others.

It’s as if you’re laughing at people who boast of your personal connections. She conquered the hunter world solely with her skills.

Therefore, the poem she experienced for the first time at a late age was like a child in that aspect.

Contrary to her perfect movements and weapon proficiency, her expressions of affection were clumsy and crude.

However, the heart carried by each such nonsensical gesture was as clear as a love letter from a shy girl.

That’s what the world doesn’t know. It was Sihwa’s lovely appearance that only I knew.

“…I don’t know yet.”

After hesitating to answer for a while, I finally passed on the situation with vague words.

“…Yes?”

Sihwa hummed her hum slightly to see if she didn’t like my answer.

“Let’s go.”

After a while, the coffee ran out and we got up, having nothing more to do.

Sihwa took me to the front of my house just like last time.

“Thank you. Shihwa. As for today’s items. It’s okay if you don’t ask for it.”

“I did it because I liked it. Don’t worry about it.”

Your expression doesn’t change and you’re good at saying embarrassing things. It’s Sihwa

She was also different from her normal girls.

“Nevertheless. Being grateful is being thankful.”

I answered her with a smile.

“If you really think thank you.”

She said to me as I grabbed the doorknob of her car.

“Next time, I’d like to invite you to drink coffee first.”

So, pay it obediently first before asking for it.

Is this roughly what it sounds like?

“Okay. I’ll get back to you soon then. Be careful.”

“Yeah. See you again. Choi In-wook.”

I waved my hand towards the moving car of Sihwa.

When I returned home, an unconfirmed text was left behind.

[Lifetime pair Yoon Harin♥]

It was Harin.

It was a text message about an hour ago.

[Inwook-ah, what are you doing now?]

Is there something urgent?

Perhaps there was some time left until the practice, so I don’t think it’s related to practice…

But, in case you don’t know, I tried calling Harin.

[Hello.]

[Inwook-ah!]

Harin received the call in a tone higher than usual.

It seems that something pleasant happened.

[I checked the text a little while ago. I was wondering if something happened.]

[Ah~ It’s nothing special, I thought we’d like to have dinner together.]

[Sorry. I have some work to do.]

[I haven’t eaten yet. Would you like to eat together now?]

I had already drank tteokbokki and coffee, so the meal was too much.

[No, no. I ate outside and came in.]

Actually, there was no need to hide it, but I instinctively felt that saying that I had been to Sihwa would be of no help to me.

[Chi… I’m sorry. I was going to take you to a restaurant near my house. Where have you been?]

[I went to buy some things I needed for the hunter supplies.]

[Really? Come with me… I can get a family discount…]

Is it just a family discount? Even if the entire store was robbed, there would have been no problem if the target was Harin.

[Where have you been?]

[There is a GW Mall in Sangam-dong.]

Harin spoke to me in a tone that made him even more sad at my words.

[Inwook-ah. From now on, whenever you go to buy such a thing, it is unconditional to me! I will tell you unconditionally!]

Harin hung up her phone only after accepting her promise.

It’s been a while since she returned home, but she unpacked the Injeya items one by one and started organizing them.

After all, the items Sihwa bought had overwhelming specifications compared to the items I had previously wanted.

Enough for the dungeon to enter next week. No, it was more than that.

If you just clear the dungeon like this and get ‘it’…

For a while, I would have been able to live without any problems at all.

When I found out that the place Inwook went to today is our company’s store, I asked the butler again.

I felt at first glance at the result of the last magic measurement, but Inwook’s magic was much more full than in his previous life.

Hmm… It’s been difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of this yet.

But strong enough to break the measuring instrument.

It was absolutely not a malfunction of the machine.

There was no way my sensing ability could not figure it out.

Then the things Inwook needs will also be different from his previous life.

I had to know what he bought this time in order to take care of me next time.

With the receipt file sent by the butler on the screen, I couldn’t hide my doubts.

…Inwook bought this?

Have you had any seed money that Inwook has saved up?

It was an excessive amount for an average 20-year-old student to purchase.

Actually, I wondered if I even needed to see a copy of the CCTV footage, but I couldn’t overcome my curiosity and clicked the attached video file.

“Huh…?”

Inwook was not alone.

And it wasn’t Inwook doing the calculations either.

Why are those two…

From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Now I can understand why the butler even sent the video.

“You Shihwa…”

How dare you ignore my warning…?

After finishing the theory class, I stopped by the club room as usual.

In the poor room, there was only Yena, but for some reason the manager was nowhere to be seen.

“Hello. Jena.”

“Yes. Hello.”

Even so, Jena was very kind to me compared to the first time.

I’ve been spending a lot of time alone or with three managers, so now I’ve reached a level where I can have a comfortable conversation.

“The manager?”

“The secret word sergeant appeared and caught him.”

Are you that senior? The person who worked in the same group with the manager.

It wasn’t perfect. Mr. Tae-soo was a person he absolutely wanted to decline as a member of his team.

As usual, I brought a canvas and started drawing, but I couldn’t concentrate as much as usual.

As I repeatedly picked up and put down the brush, Jena glanced at me to see if she was worried, and then she came towards me.

“What is it? What’s going on?”

Actually, my mind was filled with thoughts about dungeons rather than pictures.

Is it okay if I talk to Jena…?

If it was Sihwa or Harin, it was clear that she would follow me as soon as she heard that it was a dungeon.

“I applied for a dungeon next week, so I’m a little nervous.”

“Dungeon?”

“Yeah. I had all kinds of items yesterday, so I’m going to try it properly.”

Of course, I didn’t buy it with my own money.

“Hmm… That’s right.”

As expected, it was Jena who did not show any reaction.

“Do you remember going to MT on the weekend?”

“Yeah. Of course I remember.”

“Did you find out about the train to get there?”

The manager somehow reserved a pension in the countryside to save money.

…If you add up the reduced lodging costs and the added transportation costs, that seems to be the case.

Thanks to this, it was difficult to access by public transportation, so I had to reserve a high-speed bus or train.

“Ah. Not yet. I have to go home.”

“There are a lot of people going down there on the weekends, so it’s better to do it in advance.”

“Okay.”

Coming to think of it, I have to go to the dungeon the next day as soon as I go to MT.

Is it okay if I don’t drink too much alcohol?

Yena, who reminded me about MT, packed up and got up with her bag.

“What is it. Are you leaving already?”

“Yes. Today’s part-time job is advanced.”

I thought that Jena was really busy when she was a student.

“That’s right. I’ll see you on the weekend. Jena.”

“Yes.”

She seemed to be leaving the poor room as it was, but she grabbed her doorknob and added a word.

“Choi Inwook.”

“Huh?”

“Still, when you go to the dungeon, be sure to pack plenty of recovery items.”

She didn’t even hear my answer, so she slammed the door and left the office.

…I say thank you or listen to it.

Were you just one step away from being late for a part-time job…?

With that thought, I picked up the brush again.
