Jung Hyo Rin’s live concert lasted until dawn.
It kept going as encores continued to be called out, and since she was grabbing onto Lee Hyun’s hand, he had to stay with her.
‘And that wasn’t all, was it?’
If it had just ended there, his vitality wouldn’t be so severely exhausted like this.

On the last day of the festival, the seniors spoke to Seo Yoon.
“Seo Yoon, you’ve gotta enjoy the festival too. Are you just going to work here?”
90% of the pub’s customers came to see her, but her upperclassmen gave her freedom.
“At least go out and take a look around. Everyone should participate in the festival together. Is there maybe someone you would like to go out and play with?”
In response to her seniors’ goodwill, Seo Yoon reflexively stared at Lee Hyun.
Lee Hyun immediately smiled brightly for her.
“Alright. Don’t worry about the pub and go enjoy the festival.”
The pub was a success and since the orders went well, it seemed there were almost no ingredients left. If they closed early at 8 pm, he could go home and log into Royal Road.
Lee Hyun was one to refuse even a date with Seo Yoon if he had 2 hours to spare in Royal Road.
“Lee Hyun.”
The reserve forces who came back from the army did not miss the delicate matter.
[T/N: In Korea, all able men are required to train in the army for two years. They come back as reserve forces.]
“Yes. Sunbae.”
“Although we can’t believe it, looks like Seo Yoon wants you. Go guide her around the festival.”
Since he couldn’t refuse his reserve force upperclassmen, Lee Hyun was forced to take on the role of a festival guide.
“Argh, I envy him.”
“Ah, I can guide you well too…”
In the midst of the seniors’ and customers’ envy, Lee Hyun and Seo Yoon left the pub together.
She changed from the wedding dress into casual clothing, but her beauty was still enough to make the eyes of the men who came to check out the festival pop out. The men who passed them looked back again with expressions of disbelief and did not move.
“Shall we go?”
Lee Hyun suddenly grabbed Seoyoon’s hands.
Jung Hyo Rin had liked holding hands to the point of not letting go, so he held Seo Yoon’s hand first believing that she probably wouldn’t dislike it. It wasn’t manly courage, but the festival crowds were large, so his main reason was that it seemed they were going to get separated if they didn’t hold hands.
“…”
Soft and tender, her hands were surprisingly warm.
He felt Seo Yoon’s body go rigid after he grabbed her hand, but she soon relaxed.
“Is there something you want to do?”
When Lee Hyun asked, Seo Yoon couldn’t answer.
Although her voice got stuck whenever it came to speaking, it was also because she had never looked around a college festival before.
“Then I’ll guide.”
Lee Hyun went to play Whack-a-Mole with Seo Yoon because the price was not very expensive and the reaction had been considerably good when he played it with Jung Hyo Rin.
The students of the mole event who had seen Lee Hyun before were resentful.
