#63. Don’t touch it.
“Here’s an egg roll and two bottles of soju!”
“Wow.”
…Do I really have to do this?
I am doing it, but because of my age, I couldn’t help the feeling of shame that came rushing in.
As the class leader requested, I got to work at our class bar on the first day.
I helped prepare various ingredients and deliver alcohol since daytime, and now I am serving at a pub wearing a mask.
Wearing a ghost mask, I was instructed to make a ‘wow’ sound instead of a normal answer.
If it was only for me, of course I would have refused, but since it was for everyone who was wearing a monster mask, I had no choice but to follow the instructions of the class leader.
“It’s sad for a girl to hear that her teacher has turned into a monster.”
Besides, Ji-eun Lee raised her phone while pretending to wipe away her tears.
“Can’t you just put that wooooo sound over here?”
I hate it. I hate to die
Bona Mana If it was recorded on Lee Ji-eun’s cell phone, she would show me the video whenever she had a chance and make fun of it.
Like Harin, Lee Ji-eun was wearing a yukata and helping out.
Harin is light pink. While she was wearing the same color as cherry blossoms, Lee Ji-eun was wearing an orange yukata that was close to orange.
The gossip of the guests looking at the two people standing side by side was clearly audible in my ears.
[Hey. Someone go and get her number.]
[You don’t seem to have a boyfriend just by looking at it?]
[No, it’s okay to ask. If you get rejected, you just get rejected.]
[If you are so desperate, you go and pick it up, or why do the rest?]
…As expected.
It’s Lee Ji-eun. It was the first time she had a festival in her life, but it wasn’t Nana or Harin.
Even in her last life, there were many male students who were aiming for Harin at her festival.
Instead, it was different from now that I was a boyfriend back then.
The memories of a previous life that I had forgotten came to mind again.
* *
[Here. That’s really my ideal type.]
A male student grabbed Harin’s wrist, who was serving.
[I’m sorry. I’m working right now…]
Harin smiled awkwardly and tried to gently shake his arm away from her.
But she grabbed Harin’s wrist tighter, even though she smiled and said that the student had drunk some of her.
[Why? Don’t you like me? What don’t you like?]
Slightly aggressive tone.
I was sorting out the leftover garbage, and as soon as I saw the cub grabbed her wrist from Harin and wouldn’t let it go, I ran out alone.
[Let go.]
[Inwook-ah…]
I could feel the anger welling up on Harin’s slightly frightened face.
[What is it? This bastard.]
The guy who still didn’t take his hand off Harin tapped me on the shoulder.
[Can he be your boyfriend?]
[Uh. It’s boyfriend So, can you just let go of my hand right now?]
The male student laughed and tried to put his hand on Harin’s shoulder.
[I’d rather be with him than a bastard who looks like that.]
He couldn’t speak to the end.
Because nosebleeds started dripping from his nose.
[Huh?]
He closed his eyes with a surprised expression that the situation had not been grasped yet.
[What… What is it?]
Even if the aspiring Hunter said he drank Amman alcohol, he didn’t even know he was beaten.
[Let go.]
I broke the arm of the guy who was facing Harin.
[Aww!]
Due to the sudden commotion, my friends and people around me started to rip me off.
[Hey. Inwook-ah. Go there.]
[We will take care of kicking out the real guests.]
Would you like to see me touch Harin?
It was nonsense.
[Inwook-ah! Stop it! Because I’m fine.]
After Harin hugged me and dried me, I could feel my uncontrollable anger subside.
[Really. No matter how hard it is, what do you do if you grab a guest? Inwook-ah.]
Harin, who dragged me out of the pub, laid out the reasons why my actions were wrong.
[I don’t know. I mean, I’m annoyed.]
Actually, it was the bastard who did the wrong thing, but for nothing, her words came out to Harin with an angular tone.
[Inwook-ah…]
Harin, who looked around for a while, pulled my body toward her, telling her to put her ear to it.
[But… It was cool.]
In her small voice, she whispered to me, inaudible to others.
Harin, who was accusing her of why she did that to me, smiled bashfully.
[Thank you. Inwook-ah.]

10 P.M.
Time for the atmosphere of the drinking party to ripen.
Here and there, students with reddened faces caught my eye.
“Here’s another bottle of soju!”
Increasing sales was something that would be welcomed in some situations, but I felt like I was running out of steam as I was serving.
It was the same for me as well as other friends.
Lee Ji-eun was a representative example.
At first, she was energetically running around like a rabbit, but now Lee Ji-eun has become a complete jjuguri.
“Here you go~”
Even though the sound of looking for someone from the other side was heard, Lee Ji-eun pretended not to hear her and was spewing her.
Shall we play a little game?
I approached her secretly so as not to feel her popularity, and stabbed her in the waist.
As she looked at me, I gave her a weird shout that she had requested a few hours ago.
“Wow.”
I pointed to the table where the sound was coming out as I put out the sound effect.
“…Inwook can go.”
“Wow.”
Q&A dance. You go I’ve done enough.
I did not budge and stayed still in that posture, but Lee Ji-eun frowned and eventually went to take her order.
Yes. Wouldn’t it be better if you just go first while you’re going to do it anyway?
On the other hand, Harin was still serving with a smile.
It was great stamina.
Actually, I was wearing a mask, so there was no visible sign of exhaustion on my face, but Harin was doing perfect hospitality.
Everyone was busy working like that.
I heard voices rising from the table where only three men were sitting in one corner of the tavern.
“Don’t do this.”
With a puzzled expression on Harin, she talked to the man.
But he didn’t stop.
“Why don’t you just sit here and talk for a while? It doesn’t look like you’re busy right now?”
“Let go of this.”
Harin put her face on her as if he was displeased, but the man put his hand on her shoulder.
“Don’t do that, huh? My brother is an S-class hunter? If we talk for a bit, I can introduce you.”
“I don’t need it.”
Harin is a woman who has already reached S-class. She was never overpowered by them because they were weak or afraid.
She wouldn’t want to be ruined because she’s the kind of person everyone enjoys.
Watching the situation silently, I strode towards the table.
“Hey there.”
When I called them, the male student who was touching Harin looked at me with an annoyed look.
“The staff will send it to you after talking with us for a while, so will you move out of the way? Brother?”
Harin shook her head as she remembered the atrocities I had committed in her previous life.
A clear sign not to do it.
Of course, I was no longer the Choi In-wook back then.
20 Years old, he wasn’t even at the age of a lot of blood, and he wasn’t even Harin’s boyfriend now.
From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Nevertheless, I…“Ah~ I’m sorry. Guest~”
I bowed my head and apologized to them.
Harin let out a sigh of relief as she thought I wouldn’t have an accident.
But I didn’t mean to end it like that.
There is only one reason why I apologized.
From now on, for those of you who can’t find manners, it seems that etiquette education is needed.
“Then the pretty with us.”
The arm of the guy who was about to put her hand on Harin’s yukata belt was broken so that she could hear a crackling sound.
“Inwook-ah!”
Harin shouted at me.
The rest of the party looked surprised at my sudden action, but soon showed hostility towards me.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
“Are you her boyfriend? Boyfriend?”
Laughter came out.
I’m not a boyfriend…
Because I am my husband.
The guy who broke his arm. And the two men sitting opposite me surrounded me.
The man who was beaten by me lifted a bottle of soju, wriggling to see if he still had pain in his shoulder.
“This fucking bastard!”
“If you’re drunk, go home nicely.”
His bottle of soju could not hit my body and fell to the floor without strength, making a loud noise.
Because I slapped his wrist.
I had no intention of expressing my anger by bumping my whole body like in the past.
Only one.
One hit was enough.
Raising his hand, I put it to his forehead, looking slightly frightened.
“Don’t drink and touch the precious daughter of another house.”
Perfect.
A clear sound echoed from his forehead.
But he couldn’t withstand the shock of my night, so he lost his center and collapsed to the floor.
People murmuring from behind.
Lee Ji-eun ran next to me.
Harin was looking at me with a complicated expression.
“I’ll ask you to do some post-processing.”
I tapped Lee Ji-eun’s shoulder twice and left the place as it was.
“Ugh? No, In-wook left the accident and went like this?”
“Yeah, I’ll take care of you~”
I heard Lee Ji-eun yelling where she was going, but I neatly ignored it and went out of the tavern.
Ah… I had an accident…
I was aware that it was not a grown-up thing, but I couldn’t open my eyes to see that scene.
What are you really doing? This…
I heard her urgent voice from behind me, having made up my mind to go buy a cigarette.
“Inwook-ah!”
The soft moonlight shone on Harin wearing a pink yukata.
