Steel Abs

Kyaaaaaa!!! I said it! I said it! I finally asked him myself! I want to marry him~ ahahaha! Sister's method of gaining confidence worked.

It seems like rubbing your knees with your hands until your knees hurt really does work...this is an interesting thing that will help me later on!

'...this is Min-chul's fault! Yeah! He's the one always watching those romance and marriage dramas with me! All. His. Fault!'

What will I do now? Do I wait? What if he rejects my offer? Why if he accepts it? What do I do? When will we get married? Who will pay for the ceremony? What will- no!

I'm thinking too much about this. We need to follow M-M-Min-chul's example and be cool and calm. Cool and calm, like the ocean.

Soooo, as the acronym WWM-CD? goes, "what would Min-chul do?"

It's a little parody on that Christian thingy. I'm pretty creative, no? Shall I become a master chef poet? It sounds intriguing...

'No! Focus, Ji-woo! Focus focus focus! I have to tackle this one at a time'

So, first of all, will he accept? Will he decline? I don't think he'll decline me, considering how close we are. We are definitely like a married couple.

After all, we spend literally everyday together and when we can't meet in person, we use our phones. Even when he doesn't know it, we are spending time together...

'I always find a way to spend time with Min-chul, whether he knows it or not! This the quality of a good wife! A good future wife for a man named Min-chul!'

Second! How do I react to his answer? Do I cry? Say it's fine? If I say it's fine, can I say it without crying? I'll try and practice it in my brain.

'It's fine'

...Good! So, I'll say "it's fine" and we'll be done with it. I'll definitely not cry!

Just as my brain was shooting off random and slightly unrelated topics, Min-chul answers me with his slightly feminine voice...

(MC POV)

"Then...then, I'll buy the ring?"

"It's fine!"

'Haah? It's fine? You agree to let me buy the ring? Why does it sound like I'M the one proposing?'

Soon after, she...cries. Did I upset her? She starts wiping her tears away with her little fingers and doing that thing where you can't breath as you cry.

...you know? That "hic!....hic!...." thingy? It's pretty pathetic, but on a tiny girl, it's kinda cute.

"I-I-I-I...hic! I kn-knew yo-yo-you'd sa-say that.....sorry, do you mind repeating your answer again?"

Suddenly jerking her head up and looking into my eyes with her red and tears eyes, she asks me a question with a weirdly formal tone; as if this is an interview for my next job.

"Uhhh, I said I'll buy the ring?"

"...hehehehe...heheheheheee...AHAHAHAHAHHAHA!"

She interlaces her hands together in an evil looking pose. Like a maniacal maniac murdering villain, she laughs and laughs while wiping tears from her eyes.

This time, that of joy instead of sorrow or despair.

"Ummm....Ji....woo?"

"I-I...I won...I won and she lost. I cooked a cow and now, she's steak! Our beef is over"

"Your beef? Cow? What are you talking about?"

Realizing that I'm still in front of her, she recoils her hands behind her back and switches from the crazy killer to a blushing mess.

"A-a-ahhh...nothing, then I guess I'll have to pay for the ceremony?"

"Ahaha, I guess so...how long will you be gone?"

She ponders over my question for a bit before giving me a somewhat ambiguous answer.

"Uhhh, not too long...I hope"

That "I hope" at the end was certainly not the answer, but her wishing out loud. Ahhh, this is saddening. Well, not too much, but I'll miss her company.

The awkward silence before was partly my fault. However, I'm sure Ji-woo was thinking of important too. Maybe how she'll do in her future school? Who knows...

"Uhhhh, you can return. I'm going to the bathroom"

"ah, sure! Bye bye, hubby~"

With a teasing voice, she says hubby before quickly running back to the room. Seriously, did she think that I couldn't see her red ears over her tan skin?

My eyes are too good for that! Don't fool me, little gyaru!

I run into the bathroom with my stubby, but nimble feet and I lock the stall door. I start rubbing my ears to ease the pain of Feelie's stupid sound effects.

Seriously, it's really going to make me deaf one day.

As I see the amount of money I've accumulated, I can't help but read it back, over and over and over again with sparkly eyes.

Ji-woo has already returned to the room since I told her that I needed to use the bathroom. I'm currently alone here.

"...ahhhhh, it's done. It's finally done. I can relax for a while now...thank God"

Unknown to me, outside was a man who just entered and hearing a person say "thank God it's done" isn't the most appealing.

Especially when it could include a person in a stall while lightly laughing. It is very unsettling.

After a while, I choose to look at my status.

'Status, Feelie'

'Ahhhhhh, it's so beautiful. I've never seen something so sexy in my entire life. I've never seen 5 digits in that account...'

I sit back on the toilet and start scrolling up and down the shop. While looking for the highest priced thing I can afford, I found something quite intriguing.

—————————

...

Steel Cast Abs ┃ (Steel Set) ┃ ┃ ┃ STR +11 RES +9 ┃ Charm x12%

₲14,500

...

—————————

Granted, it is a bit more expensive than I would prefer, but I'd like to use my coins already for something it's meant for.

After all, leaving it in my account won't help me. It's not a real bank with interest rates.

I decide to buy it a bit later, considering that now isn't the time to drastically change my physique.

'...can I trade the stock market with the ₲ coins to won?'

Thinking about it more, the more I think it should be possible.

₲ coin is based on the value of 500 won. Feelie said that I can exchange 500 won for one ₲ coin and most likely, I should be able to exchange 500 won for ₲1 coin.

This means that if the won raises in value, the value of the ₲ coin will increase. Thankfully, in the future, the Korean economy will be in a slight decline.

Well, it isn't good, but it's good for me. I'll just change my won to USD or euro or something similar and when the economy calms down, I'll exchange the won for ₲ coins.

'Well...unless the ₲ coin isn't stable...Feelie! How is the value of the ₲ coin determined?'

[I can see what your thinking remember? However...even though my creator doesn't approve of this he has no choice. The ₲ coin is stable. 500 won is ₲1 coin forever]

'Woohoo!!! Thank you Feelie!'

[yeah yeah, no problem]

As I exit the stall, I return back to the private room with Jung, mom, dad and Ji-woo's family. It seems that everyone got slightly friendly, but Jung.

From the looks of it, Jung and Ji-woo's sister stopped talking to him and is on the phone with an annoyed expression. Jung on the other hand, is talking to Ji-woo now.

As I approach her, her face lights up.

"Ahhhh, my favorite little boy~"

"Why aren't you talking to Jung anymore?"

"Ahhh, that old man? He's too stiff. It's like he just returned from his mandatory service, nyahahahaha!"

"Ahhhh, seems like him"

Hearing her explaination, I wryly smile and continue to make friends with my future "sister-in-law".
