84 – Because it’s the first time. Certainly. (2)

“・・・・・・That’s too bad.”
“I never thought I would be full after my first drink.”
“Considering that, you had a very sullen expression when we left, right?”
“······Actually, I was a little hurt.”
At Jiwoo’s factual assault, I vomited out the truth that I had hidden because of my petty pride.
As I found out while going through the books of Wildbore Capital, the circumstances of the agency to which Nauri belonged were by no means good.
No, it was no different from an agency that just went bankrupt before saying it was good.
All of the contracted celebrities and trainees canceled their contracts, and the debtor came to pay off the debt to the point of destroying the president’s office.
That’s why Nauri will not be able to fulfill her dream of becoming an idol at that agency, and even terminated her trainee contract.
To sum up, now Mr. Nauri was in a state of wandering, unable to figure out where to pursue his dream of becoming an idol.
But such an independent trainee… No, he didn’t accept my invitation even though he was in a state that was no different from a normal person.
If it’s a recruitment proposal, even though I’m in a hurry to the point where I’m inclined to listen, to me, it means that I don’t want to come into Bareungil Entertainment.
From Mr. Nauri’s refusal, saying ‘I think I need to think about it’, I realized what my current level was, and in the end, I couldn’t help but feel hurt.
Besides, since Ji-Woo found out that I was sullen, there’s nothing to hide now.
“I feel drained of energy…”
Honestly, you were right in thinking that you would easily accept my proposal since you are new to Nakdonggang Duck Eggs, and it is also true that you were so careless.
But still, a shock is a shock. It’s okay to spend some time immersed in the afterglow of shock before reflecting.
I was making a faint sound with my shoulders drooping, and then Ji-woo, who was sitting next to me, put her hand on my shoulder as if it couldn’t be helped and uttered a voice.
“Uhm, as expected, it will only be resolved when the cute fanboy Yu Ji-woo steps in. I get it. Manager oppa only trusts me.”
Even after Ha-an kicked Yu Ji-woo, a cute fan of love, I started to develop a sense of cuteness pride. But maybe that’s why it’s cuter. Should I say it’s cute?
It was a bit reliable when Jiwoo spoke like a character in a cartoon that appeared late, but honestly, it wasn’t reliable.
“·····I heard that you and I didn’t mix properly even once.”
Because Ji-woo said that I was going to meet Na-uri, contrary to what we did, when we actually met Na-uri, we couldn’t mix it up properly.
Of course, it’s true that you may not be able to properly mix words with people, but I love you so much, I love you, I love you.
I thought that Jiwoo would leave a good impression on Nauri as a fan by revealing her huge fanship without filtering, but after meeting her, she turned her eyes away from Nauri with almost ignorance.
To be precise, I would have to say that I was just spying on you out of the corner of my eye. Pretend not to see, but openly reveal everything to the other person.
“Ugh. That, that one! It’s because I’m our fan! It’s a national rule for real fans to let their one-pick take a rest without showing off in front of them, ah!”
Perhaps I was deeply stung by my words, Ji-woo turned her face red and protested.
Even if he made concessions 100 times and, as Jiwoo said, considers himself a fan, the fact that he didn’t even introduce himself as a fan is just missing.
“Ugh, it looks like you don’t believe it at all. I didn’t know that manager oppa could be such a mischievous prankster… Betrayal of bitterness…!”
“Ha ha ha. So don’t be cute It’s cute, so you want to poke it for no reason.”
“I’m not pretending to be cute, I’m really cute, so I can’t be cute! This is the part that the manager oppa has to endure!”
I smiled at Jiwoo’s cute face and excuses, and lifted his drooping shoulders again.
As the saying goes, the mind follows the body, when I corrected my posture, my desire, which had fallen to the ground, rose again.
I said the words I originally intended to say to Ji-Woo, who was acting like he was resentful of being made fun of.
“Anyway, even if that’s the case, it’s okay if you don’t help me anymore. Anyway, I thought I’d try to do it myself from now on.”
“Yes? Wow?! Are you saying I’m going away because I’m not helpful at all? Now, I’ll do well, so don’t throw me away, heui-ing…”
Ji-Woo, who did not listen to the words that followed, became tearful at the end of his hasty decision and began to beg me not to throw it away.
At that moment, the eyes around me became stingy and I heard whispers from around me, and I immediately left the cafe holding Ji-woo like a princess.
In the wild, those who don’t hesitate and make quick, right decisions tend to survive longer.

“Goodbye, guest.”
Leaving behind the very professional staff’s greetings, I took Ji-Woo in my arms and walked to a deserted place where no one else would be able to see Ji-Woo crying.
Thanks to the fact that I was running with a grown woman in my arms, people’s eyes didn’t catch me, and I was able to successfully reach back alleys that were sparsely populated.
“Sah, save me! Also, I will definitely pay you back! If you give me a little ending…!”
“At the end? A bastard like this f*cking sea anemone? Didn’t you say that if you gave me one month last time, you would risk your life to pay it back? But if you see me talking about the end here again, you’re just looking at me like a dick, right?”
But contrary to the expectation that the back alley would be deserted, a man with bruises on his face and a nosebleed from being beaten and three big, stern creditors took their seats first.
Anyway, when someone asks for an anemone, he responds with an anemone. It’s really copper. I didn’t say anything like that either. My brother is also going to vomit.
Feeling such a feeling, I naturally stopped walking, and the gangsters, who were sensitive to the presence of the original body, naturally met my eyes.
“······What is that. Hey! Go on your way! I’m getting hurt for no reason! No, no. It would be embarrassing to send the police like that. Don’t go there, come over here. Let me talk.”
Then he said something that seemed like he hadn’t learned enough and motioned for me to come to him.
I let out a pitiful sigh when I saw that idiot-like hand gesture and the two big men standing next to me, turning their heads and making a clattering sound from their hands.
“Haa…”
I’m not alone, and Ji-woo is there, so it’s better to just go. But if I just go from here, at least one of those three hundred percent people will come after me, and then I might be bothered or noisy. In that case, it might be better to cut off the buds of anxiety.
Besides, this was a very good place to hide the crying face of Jiwoo, to the extent that my instinct recognized it as a deserted place.
Looking for a back alley like this anywhere else would be like picking stars from the sky.
So when I weighed all the factors, getting out of this back alley wasn’t a good thing for me.
“Hey! Hurry up, kid! Don’t eat it! He’s a guy holding a baby, and he’s a civilian, so can I beat him? I want to talk, so come quickly!”

After judging up to that point, I nodded my head and moved on, pretending to obediently respond to his gesture to come here and his rough tone.
“Okay, let’s go.”
Since Jiwoo is holding Jiwoo with both hands, you cannot use your hands, and since Jiwoo is in your arms, you must not be attacked, and Jiwoo may feel dizzy or scared, so do not block or move violently.
When I roughly listed the things I must protect from now on, there was nothing special. As always, it was enough to just give it one-sidedly.
Knowing it wasn’t difficult, I walked confidently, and before I knew it, I was close to the guy who beckoned me.
“But you bastard, you tried not to lose, but you sighed earlier? So damn cheap!”
And, of course, he immediately reversed his words that he would not hit me and swung his palm at me.

“Cleaning done!”
I was able to get out though, so I slightly damaged the ligaments on one side of my knee, and then I told them to get out.
In the short time when the creditors were destroyed by me, the man who had been beaten first had already disappeared.
As a result, I succeeded in creating an environment where only the two of us, Ji-woo and I, can fully enjoy this deserted back alley.
“Okay then, Jiwoo. Shall we get off for a minute so we can talk?”
After creating a suitable environment for a story to resolve misunderstandings, I asked Ji-woo, who was still in my arms like a koala.
“No, yes. I want to talk while holding you like a princess like this.”
“Yes, yes.”
But without hesitation, I was rejected right away.
In the end, I started talking while holding Ji-woo like a baby koala, no, like a princess.
“First of all, saying that I will throw you away is really nonsense, so I won’t even refute it. For me to abandon you is something that will never happen.”
I don’t know if it’s the other way around.
“Yes.”
After hearing the answer from Jiwoo, who was burying his face in my chest with his ears red for some reason, I continued my original intention and went out.
“Then I’ll tell you why I said I don’t need your help now.”
The reason why he declared that he would not borrow Jiwoo’s help in recruiting Nauri is this.
“Because you are the first gemstone I found.”
It was literally because Mr. Nauri was the first.
