Chapter 4: Collectors Watch (2)

Kang Dongwom's girlfriend is a sophomore at the schools Art Academy. Her name is Choi Hyejin.

The appearance can be said that not so beautiful but also look clean. She has a good temper and a soft voice that makes people fall in love.

It's a pity that she was taken by Kang Dongwon who's known as a player by his roommates.

Kang Dongwon was going out for a date with Choi Hyejin tonight. And he actually borrowed his watch.

Lee Minho pretend not to care but lend the watch carefully.

That's more 50 million, close to 60 million watch. If he's not discovered just now he would have hid the watch just now.

As soon as Kang Dongwon left, Lee Minho instantly withered.

Kim Jaehwan glace at him and give him a stare and said.

"Minho Dongwon just have an appointment with his girlfriend not on the battle ground why do you look so tensed?"

When Lee Minho heard this he immediately denied it.

"Jaehwan what are you talking about? I'm not tensed up about him but for the watch!"

Park Bogum who was standing shrugged it off thinking it was just a joke laid down on bed and started to read some novel.

Meanwhile in his mind Lee Minho is shaking. Although Dongwon is his good brother but the watch is too expensive. He's afraid that the watch's value will found out.

Lee Minho couldn't relax so he ask the system about the next lesson.

"System! System what's next task lesson? I'm bored now otherwise I'll only continue to think about the watch."

The system didn't expect that Lee Minho will ask about the next task on his own initiative.

{Yes. May I ask the host if he wants to start the new task lesson in advanced?}

"Yes"

He then closed his eyes and went to the virtual space of the system.

This time the virtual teacher is the same but the lesson is different. The lesson became more advanced and more professional.

{The host must have the demaneor of a wealthy person in speech, action and behavior. A persons speech and action reflects their characters temperament.}

Lee Minho admitted that one on one learning with the teacher is more effective.

He learned the various etiquettes in different occasions with training for practice.

When Lee Minho learned them well he's now more refined and gives an aura of noble.

The next day after waking up. He brushed off his teeth and washed his faced.

While doing his own things Park Bogum was actually staring at him.

At first he didn't notice but Bogum's face without glasses is look too straight forwarded and kinda scary.

While holding the towel he couldn't help but ask. "Why are looking at me? Is there something on my face?"

Park Bogum came back to his senses and shook his head. "No it's nothing. It's just that you seem to have changed this days."

Lee Minho wondered and ask. "What changes?"

"It's hard to say. Now you're speaking more politely and I never hear you cursed this days as well. You've become gentle."

Hearing this Lee Minho proudly said to his heart. 'Ofcourse it's different. I've undergone through systematic one on one training.

Park Bogum then patted his cheek with water but notice Lee Minho again.

After watching Lee Minho dried his face with towel. He gracefully spread it out and hanged it.

Turning around Lee Minho saw Park Bogum behind him again staring at him intently.

Couldn't help but taken aback he asked.

"What's the matter?"

"Since when did you start washing your face and cleaning them up with towel?"

Men's life is rough even Kang Dongwon just washed his faced with water and that's it.

Lee Minho was the same as them before. Just pour some water on their hands and brushed their faced with it.

Lee Minho didn't panic at all and already thought of an excuse.

"I think that this towel will be useless if I didn't use it. It's a pity if I just throw it away without even using it once."

After speaking he smoothly changed the subject. "Aren't you going to publishing house today? Hurry up or you'll be late."

It was only when Lee Minho brought it up or else he would forget about it.

"Right if didn't remind me just now I will be late. Then I'll get going first."

Park Bogum picked up his briefcase after changing before going out.

The publishing house will open at 8am sharp now it's already 7am he needs to hurry or else the traffic will get him.

In order to get to work he didn't have a breakfast and immediately just moved out.

Seeing Park Bogum was gone he asked the system.

"System does my recent changes are obvious?"

He smacked his mouth it murmured as he thought about it.

"It seems quite obvious. Anyway they will move out next week there will be less time of seeing each other and it's normal for people to change."

Lee Minho went out to have a breakfast amd returned to dormitory afterwards.

For now his only focus is to complete the task and learn the advanced etiquette of the system to see if he can get another expensive things.

Lee Minho continue to study and learned everything in the system space until the sky darkened.

Kang Dongwon returned with porridge for Lee Minho. He knows that Lee Minho always eat instant noodles everyday which worries him.

Taking the porridge Lee Minho thanks him.

After some time Kang Dongwon ask Lee Minho about the watch.

"Where can I go to buy this watch? It's actually pretty comfy to wear and stylish to looked at."

Lee Minho answered immediately as thought of an excuse once again.

"This thing can't be bought anymore. The stock is already been cut because it's not that many recognize it."

He made it look like the watch is just a insignificant non-brand that's why many people know about it.

After all he doesn't want to scare Kang Dongwon about his watch worth 58 million dollars.
