Contract marriage with the manager

02. The Beginning of the Incident (2)

Donghyun: "Here, two servings of fish cakes and three bottles of soju, please."


Pojangmacha owner: "Just a moment!"


I snickered as I watched Donghyun skillfully ordering.


Donghyun: "Why are you laughing?"

Min: "You must have seen a lot."

Donghyun: "I'm a regular."

Min: "Oh... something......"

Donghyun: "What?"

Min: "Is this something unimaginable?"

Donghyun: "Why?"

Min: "I thought he'd just grow up to be a rich kid... but he's just like my neighborhood brother."


Dong-Hyeon smiled brightly at my words. The corners of his sharp eyes widened.


Donghyun: "Why? Are you awake?"

Min: "That's possible. Should I say we've become more familiar?"

Donghyun: "That's fortunate."


Then the boss came with fish cakes and soju and said


Pojangmacha owner: "You always come with that cute young man. Is it your lover today?"

Donghyun: "That's my brother's younger brother."

Pojangmacha owner: "Oh! They said it looked alike."

Min: "Do they look that much alike?"

Pojangmacha owner: "Then!! I thought you two were just friends.... but you're in-laws?"

Dong-hyun: "Hey, boss. We're not like that."

Min: "No, lover."

Pojangmacha owner: "You two looked great together, but it's too bad... Enjoy your meal and go."

Donghyun: "Yes! Thank you."

Min: "Thank you!!"


I felt my face flushing, perhaps because of the alcohol I had already consumed.


Min: 'I feel strange.....'


I picked up a bottle of soju the boss had left behind, shook it once, shook the back of the bottle with my elbow, shook the bottle again, and cracked the bottle open.


Donghyun: "Wow......."

Min: "ㅋㅋㅋWhy?"


I smiled at Dong-hyeon, who was staring blankly at the sight, and poured some alcohol into the empty glass in front of him.


Min: "Is this your first time seeing me? I'll probably see you a lot if I drink with you."

Dong-hyun: "The siblings look exactly alike."


After Donghyun poured a drink into my glass, he carefully lifted the glass and asked me a question.


Donghyun: "Huh...?"


I also picked up my glass, clinked it with his, and said


Min: "That's the national law."


And then he drank the alcohol in one gulp.


Donghyun: "Why doesn't Min-ssi fill his glass to the brim but only halfway?"

Min: "Well... if you drink too much alcohol at once, it doesn't taste good."

Donghyun: "He seemed like a total professional."

Min: "Are you going to fill up the alcohol?"

Donghyun: "Always overflowing."

Min: "That's just a way to get Donghyun drunk quickly."

Donghyun: "Really?"

Min: "ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ My brother's style is to fill it up. He said that if you fill it up less, it means you don't have affection."

Donghyun: "You're different in that respect, aren't you? You and Min-ssi."

Min: "What... Then it's convenient?"


I looked at Dong-Hyeon and said, holding my empty glass.


Min: "Can you fill me up? I want to get drunk quickly."

Donghyun: "What's going on?"

Min: "It's just... hard...''

Donghyun: "What?"

Min: "That asshole manager too... That asshole who cheated on me too"

Donghyun: ".......Shall I help you?"

Min: "Okay, that's okay."

Donghyun: "I'll help you, unnie."


When he called me 'sister', I paused for a moment.


Min: ".....I'm sorry."

Donghyun: "Don't worry about that."

Min: "Still........"

Donghyun: "You're using me, sister. I'll use you too."
