Chapter 124
“But the answers haven’t been released yet, right?”
It was a pure curiosity.
Though the college entrance exam had passed some time ago, I had never heard that all the answers were immediately available right after the test.
When I asked her—
"No, oppa. What kind of rookie question is that? You can tell right away, like ‘I screwed up,’ or ‘I did well.’ It’s just a feeling."
"Ah, that’s true."
I think I understood what IyeRam meant.
After taking the entrance exam, you can usually get a rough sense of whether you did well or not.
‘Though, I’ve never been so confident in my judgment before.’
I wondered if she really did well.
Thinking about it, I spoke up.
"Then I’ll come to where you are. Let’s grab a meal nearby."
"Oh, nice."
With that, I headed to where IyeRam was waiting.
Clop clop-
How long did it take?
"Oppa!!"
I saw IyeRam calling me from a distance, shouting loudly.
"...Why is she calling so loudly?"
She knew I didn’t like attracting attention outside.
I thought I should give her another lesson at home after this, waving my hand and running toward her.
"Oppa, let’s go eat. I’m hungry."
"What do you want to eat?"
IyeRam immediately asked for food as soon as we met.
I expected her to talk for a bit and then ask for food, but...
I thought to myself, how tired must she be to act this way? I kept talking as we walked.
"I want sushi..."
"Sushi?"
"Yeah. I suddenly really crave sushi."
"Sushi is delicious, yeah."
Sushi is indeed delicious.
It’s just too expensive for me to eat often.
"Then let’s go eat sushi. I’ll get a taxi."
"Oh, nice."
I immediately hailed a taxi.
Eating at a nearby restaurant right after the exam would be the dumbest thing to do.
‘A lot of people who took the exam are probably going to be around here.’
It was better to eat sushi quietly at a local place.
I thought this as I walked a little farther from the exam site.
"Let’s grab a taxi from a place where it’s easy to get one. If we try calling one from inside, they won’t come."
"Yeah, that’s true."
I couldn’t speak much since I’ve never driven a taxi, but I knew taxi drivers were very particular about this.
Maybe because their livelihoods depended on it.
With that in mind, I arrived at a place where I could hail a taxi.
Soon after,
Screech-
A taxi arrived.
"Let’s go."
Now it was time to hear about IyeRam’s exam while having sushi.
"We’ll get the large size."
"Oh... what? Oppa’s been pretty bold lately?"
Anyway, looking at the big picture, she did extremely well on the entrance exam.
She was likely going to get into one of the top universities in Seoul.
"You really did well. Honestly, I doubted it."
"Well, when you take the exam, you can feel it right away. Whether you did well or not."
"That’s true, but..."
As we talked, our food arrived.
The exam scores were all checked, and now it was time to relax and enjoy the meal.
The next day,
IyeRam left for school with a very happy face.
She seemed really relieved to have done well on the exam.
"Ah, right."
By the way, I was supposed to start the stream yesterday.
But, with all the talking with IyeRam, I completely forgot to start it.
"I should’ve at least left a notice."
I didn’t really like making viewers wait, but I felt bad, so I quickly got up and started the stream.
[The stream has started!]
With the notification that the stream had started, viewers quickly began joining.
[????️OmnipotentCthulhu: Damn]
[????️OmnipotentCthulhu: Seriously]
[????️OmnipotentCthulhu: What the hell]
[Why didn’t you stream yesterday? Why didn’t you stream yesterday? Why didn’t you stream yesterday?]
[It’s so annoying that you didn’t stream...]
[KangHoominHere: Just go die ᄋᄋ..]
[Really pissed off]
[Hwanhee: It’s really disappointing that you didn’t even leave a notice]
The viewers were immediately upset.
But I had my reasons, so I quickly responded.
"I wanted to stream, but I couldn’t, so I’m doing it now. I’ll stream longer today, so please bear with me."
Normally, I would just ignore them, but with the viewers this upset, I couldn’t afford to brush it off.
[????️OmnipotentCthulhu: You think saying that is going to]
[????️OmnipotentCthulhu: calm us down???]
[Actually, it’s fine]
[If you stream long today, we’ll forgive you ᄏᄏ]
[KangHoominHere: Don’t think we’re going to forgive you just because you apologized?]
[KangHoominHere: I’ll keep making fun of you even if you apologize]
[Low tastes are absolutely savage ᄏᄏ]
[Seriously, that’s savage..]
[Hwanhee: By the way, did your sibling do well on the exam?]
Just when I was about to answer, the chat brought it up.
It seemed like a good time to talk about what happened yesterday.
"Well, I don’t think it went that well."
[????️OmnipotentCthulhu: Ah]
[Wow]
[KangHoominHere: Looks like things are going well ᄏᄏ]
[Temporarily Kicked Out!]
[This guy is seriously always the same ᄏᄏ]
"So, what’s the grade?"
"Everything’s 1st except for Korean History. That’s a 4."
If she’d done well on Korean History, I’d have said she did great, but as a Korean citizen, it was hard to call someone who failed Korean History a success on the exam.
It felt like my conscience was pricked.
[????️OmnipotentCthulhu: LMAO ᄏᄏ]
[????️OmnipotentCthulhu: How do you even get a 4 in Korean History]
[KangHoominHere: I once got a 6 in Korean History ᄏᄏ]
[Please stop being so savage..]
[6th grade really makes me want to strangle someone]
[Heh-heh]
[Woah, woah, calm down]
[It’s hard to calm down ᄏᄏ]
While chatting like that,
suddenly,
Ring-ring-
Someone messaged me on Discord.
"Who could it be?"
There wasn’t anyone I needed to talk to, so I was curious.
Opening Discord, I saw—
[Parsley]
A name I didn’t expect at all.
"What’s this? I didn’t expect this at all."
Parsley suddenly messaging me.
Was there something serious going on?
I quickly opened the message.
"Dama-nim!!! Can you tell me about Sion?"
"Ah... sure."
It was such an unexpected request.
