I'm from Joseon, Young Master.

28 | Seol Yeo-ju, who wants to become a cleaning fairy

Booths_

The clock hands are already pointing to 8 o'clock

As the sun began to rise, the heroine woke up semi-automatically and stretched.

설여주

Ugh...! I dozed off for a second...

Thanks to that, I didn't get to see the picture you drew.

I fought so hard against sleep to see that.

The female protagonist feels like she's weak for no reason.

설여주

'By the way, where is the young master...'

설여주

'Besides, I definitely didn't fall asleep here...'

설여주

ah -

The female protagonist's face began to turn red as she let out an exclamation as if she had realized something.

Perhaps he had some idea why I could come back to my room even after falling asleep in the living room.

설여주

Oh... Then why did you fall asleep there...

설여주

Seriously, really...

Phew, the female protagonist buried her head in the blanket and let out a silent scream.

After a while of being in that state of turmoil, she seemed to have calmed down a bit and walked outside.

Squeak...

As the heroine carefully opened the door, sunlight poured into the dark living room where all the lights were off.

설여주

'Where is the young master...'

stroke_

The female protagonist turns her head here and there to look for Jeong-guk.

As I turned my gaze towards the sofa, I saw him lying on the sofa, sleeping.

설여주

'Looks like you're still sleeping.'

Well, you were drawing until so late.

You must be tired

Stealthily_ The female protagonist entered the living room, keeping her footsteps as quiet as possible so as not to wake Jeong-guk.

설여주

uh..

설여주

Uh... ra...?

As soon as she entered the living room, she witnessed the same scene that Jeongguk had seen at dawn.

She thought she had drawn the picture quite neatly, so it must have been quite a shock.

What on earth did you do to get paint to splatter everywhere like this?

If someone saw this, they would think I was having a snowball fight with paint.

설여주

oh my god..

Ink doesn't erase well once it gets on you, so what's the point of doing this?

설여주

Okay, anything...

Hudadak_ The female protagonist, whose heart was racing, hurried to the bathroom.

Rummaging around

설여주

I found a rag to wipe it with...

설여주

Where should I get water?

Last time, you said there was no stream nearby.

설여주

Should I do this... like this...?

The female protagonist briefly saw Jungkook washing his face with water from the faucet from behind.

I'm fiddling with the faucet here and there, trying to recall that memory.

Kkirik_

Shoooooo -

설여주

(Surprise -)

설여주

Wow.. water is coming out..!

설여주

What a truly amazing thing..!

When you lift it up, water comes out

If you go down again, the water won't come out.

This faucet, which is taken for granted by 21st century people, seems like a novelty to Yeoju.

설여주

Oops..! This is not the time for me to be doing this.

The heroine gently pats her cheek and wets a towel with water.

The way he squeezes the towel so that the water doesn't drip down doesn't look like something he's done once or twice.

설여주

Done..!

Hudadak_

The female protagonist runs into the living room again in a hurry.

I start to scrub the floor diligently, with paint splashed all over it.

Ssuksuksuk_

Ssuk ssuk ssuk ssuk ssuk ssuk_

Ssuk s ..._

Ssuk ...

I clean it so diligently that it almost seems crazy.

But despite the heroine's efforts, not a single drop of paint was erased.

It seemed as if he was teasing the female protagonist who was desperate to erase the paint.

설여주

As expected, it can't be erased with just water.

설여주

What should I do...

The heroine is sullen at the paint stains that remain clearly no matter how hard she wipes them.

He just sits on the floor and mops the floor endlessly.

전정국

Hmm...

Jungkook tosses and turns, perhaps sensing the presence of people right next to him.

Ssurukruk_ When I opened my eyelids, I saw the female protagonist crouching in front of me, looking sullen.

전정국

Miss Yeoju..?

전정국

What are you doing sitting there?

설여주

Oh... are you awake?

설여주

You must be tired, so sleep a little more.

When he hears Jeongguk's voice, he changes the subject as if nothing happened.

전정국

I'm not that tired

전정국

And you might have asked me what I was doing - ?

설여주

that is...

Hesitating_

전정국

It's okay, so just tell me.

설여주

Here... there's a lot... of ink...

설여주

I tried to wipe it, but it didn't come off well...

설여주

I wanted to draw for no reason, so my house got dirty...

The female protagonist lowers her head and quickly becomes tearful.

The eyes are moist, as if tears will flow down the red cheeks at any moment.

전정국

Ah.. (scratch-)

If I knew you'd be this upset, I should have cleaned up and gone to bed yesterday.

This guy's laziness is the problem, the problem.
