Chapitre 175: Chapter 87.1
"Uh… hehehe."
Laughter leaked out of his mouth.
He knew he would look stupid right about then but he couldn't help it.
'Her answer is driving me crazy. Why am I in such a good mood?'
Hormones were pumped out of Lee Hyun-woo's brain.
The reward system of his brain was activated, and feelings of joy, excitement, and pleasure became unregulated.
It was the same reaction one would have when taking drugs.
'Is this why it is said that love is like a drug? It is a completely different feeling than sex.'
Lee Hyeon-woo felt joy at the emotional level.
"Can you say it one more time?"
It was something he wanted to hear again, so he begged her.
"Sorry...? Didn't you hear it already...?"
"No, that's not it. I just want to hear it again. Can you tell me again?"
"Ugh..."
Lee Yu-na lowered her head as if she was feeling shy.
Still, Lee Hyun-woo had said that he wanted to hear her answer again.
"Yes. Today is our 1st day dating..."
"Haa. I like the sound of that. Thank you."
Unfortunately, the joy of having heard it again did not send shivers down his spine as much as it did when he had first heard her reply.
But it felt good though.
Hyeonu Lee laughed and nodded his head, impassioned.
"So, you are my girlfriend from now on?"
"Yes... I, Chairman. I'm new to dating, so I'll be clumsy with everything. I will try hard though."
"Ahaha, haha."
Lee Yu-na spat out the words as if asking him to take good care of her if she was lacking in any department.
However, it sounded different to Lee Hyun-woo.
He had taken Yu-Na's first again.
Her first date, first drive, first visit to Han River Park, first visit to Namsan Tower…
And even her first love.
As long as the relationship continued, Lee Hyun-woo would be the first in everything about Lee Yu-na.
Was there anything more fulfilling for a man's pride?
"Huh? Why are you laughing? Was there anything funny about what I said?"
"No no. I'm just so happy. I laughed because it sounded too good to be true."
Hyunwoo Lee just smiled and responded that he enjoyed the moment, making Yuna embarrassed.
Still, she felt that his response was good.
Just because they were now dating, she realised he seemed to be in a happy mood.
She felt something soften in her chest.
'Is this what it feels like to be loved?'
"It's a bit strange."
"What?"
"I didn't expect to get in a relationship like this."
"Then what kind of love did you envision?"
"Just like in a drama I guess. Where I bumped into you while walking on the road, and then you... Even if not to this extent, we might naturally meet at places like school or at gatherings. Getting to know each other. Also walking home together. And then, naturally, we would get to know each other... I thought my first love would definitely be like that..."
It was imagery that would have been expected from a Mosol. [T/N: a person who has never had a romantic partner.]
Since Lee Hyeon-woo was also a Mosol, he could sympathise with Lee Yu-na's feelings to an extent.
"I understand what you mean."
"Huh? President, how was your first relationship?"
"Uh? Huh? You are my first girlfriend...?"
'Couldn't she tell that?'
He had read someone that men liked women who did not have previous partners, but women liked men who were experienced.
'So, should I have said I wasn't a Mosol instead? What if she gets a strange misunderstanding...?'
Lee Hyun-woo, who had spat out the fact that he had been maidenless at his big age, was thinking about how to do damage control for the statement he had blurted out just now.
But he was awakened from his thoughts by Lee Yu-na's surprised words.
"Huh? Chairman, were you a Mosol too? Really? That's a lie!"
"No. Really. Even if there were women I met up with occasionally, there was no one whom I could call my girlfriend. You are really the first."
As long as she was fine with it and didn't have much of an adverse reaction, he was fine with being seen as a Mosol.
It was just a matter of a man's pride, though it was true that he wasn't experienced in dating either.
"OMG. President. Have you been single all this while? But... If you have that much money..."
Lee Yu-na frowned slightly and spoke to herself.
From an outsider's view, it may have appeared as though the way she spoke as though she was looking down on Lee Hyun-woo.
But her thoughts were going down a completely different line of thought.
Hyunwoo Lee had a lot of money, so he would surely have been with many women.
Couldn't that be figured out just from the number of female streamers he sponsored?
But even after having met so many women, he said that she was his first and only girlfriend for some reason.
It was only she who he had confessed to, or so he said.
That would surely have meant that Lee Yu-na was the best of the woman he had ever met.
"Ah...!"
She felt extremely happy at the thought, but she didn't want to show off her good feelings, so she pretended to be blaming him instead.
And then, something came to mind—
The fact that there were many women whom he supported...
"President. Can I ask just one question?"
"Of course. Ask anything."
"The other female streamers that you sponsor, do you go on drives like this with them?"
It hadn't mattered at all before.
What did it matter whether there were many female streamers sponsored by Lee Hyun-woo to her?
She only had to complete the missions he assigned to her for a monetary reward.
However, since having become Lee Hyun-woo's girlfriend, the feeling she had towards the fact that he sponsored so many other female streamers completely changed.
She felt really sullen that there were so many other women around Lee Hyun-woo.
'Is this jealousy?'
It was not like the jealousy of a person who wanted to beat a kid who was better at studying than them.
This was the jealousy of a woman to another woman.
It was the first time she had felt this feeling in her life.
"Uh, huh?"
*Flinch*
Hyunwoo Lee was taken aback.
It was such a startling question.
He had expected that one day this question would be thrown his way.
Darling, the mad bitch, had tried to brandish a knife in her jealousy.
And hadn't the wily bitch, Yeojjing, played pranks on him every other day out of jealousy?
In addition, Bread, who was on the milder side, also became pouty when other female streamers were mentioned.
Jealousy was like a passive skill of women.
Naturally, he thought that since he now had a girlfriend, he might have been questioned about his relationships with other female streamers.
However, he didn't realise it would be like that from the first day.
He intended to take his time and persuade her slowly.
He couldn't just reveal everything like his infinite coins cheat.
Plus, there were some sensitive circumstances he had to circle around, so he had to maintain their relationship whilst also shooting coins and receiving cashback.
Even if she found it hard to see past the problem, he thought that so long as the amount of cash plugged her way each week was fine, then she would eventually come around.
But from the first day, who could have known he would be asked this troublesome question?
