chapter 93
The bunny is obsessed with me.
There was a lot more to organize than I thought.
It’s like pulling out various cords, and putting items in a basket.
I didn’t know because I didn’t have anything to organize, but it was very cumbersome to organize the lab.
It was also the last class, so it was annoying to lock all the windows in the lab.
I stood on tiptoe, then closed and locked the window.
Lee Ye-ji stared at me like that and said.
“Are you bothered?”
“It’s quite annoying.”
“I’m not flirting with giving students grades for nothing.”
“is that so?”
“yes. Besides, I’m short, so it’s inconvenient to close the window.”
Lee Ye-ji stood on tiptoe and grumbled.
Certainly there seemed to be a lot of problems with her height.
Even though I stood on tiptoe like that, my head barely touched my neck.
Even if I couldn’t do it, it was clear that there would be a difference of two and a half to three heads.
You’d probably have to step on a chair to close the top window, then step on the window.
For a moment, I imagined Lee Ye-ji whimpering like that.
… For some reason, there was a tendency for poor treatment among students.
I thought it would be nice to have a flexible teaching assistant, but I didn’t know there was such a reason.
It seemed that her eating habits and body size also had a big influence there.
Also, the sight that happened the other day.
That’s why I was in a swaddling bag like a baby.
There were many rumors going around, but I just thought it would be nice if it wasn’t true.
“What, did you hear any strange rumors?”
“No, not really.”
I rushed around, but it seemed to be of no use to Lee Ye-ji.
I couldn’t lie because I had seen her eccentricity once in the first place.
“Probably, all the rumors you heard are true.”
“is that so.”
“This is because of my normal lifestyle, but it’s because I’m a graduate student.”
Lee Ye-ji wore a tired smile.
And if you’re tired and don’t eat caffeine in time, you said that such an eccentricity would happen.
Not only did he fall asleep in the hallway, but he also passed out after sitting on the stairs.
After listening to other travelogues, it was to the extent that my thoughts about graduate students changed a bit.
Of course, I knew Yeji Lee was a special case.
It’s because the average graduate student doesn’t overwork his body to the point of losing his mind.
It was strange that she acted recklessly, thinking that she would do something.
So instead of being surprised by that statement, I asked what I had been curious about.
“Is that guy from last time a lover?”
“yes. it’s a boyfriend 15 years of love… !”
“ah… ”
“I heard that I was your first love from the first year of elementary school until now? He silently followed me all the way to graduate school, but I have no choice but to accept it.”
“Yeah?”
“What’s going on?”
“Oh, no.”
Going to graduate school for love was actually crazy.
When I heard more about it, Lee Ye-ji said that she went out with that guy in elementary, middle and high school.
I thought that this was a sick love beyond pure love, but I gave up.
Instead, I pretended not to know anything and briefly asked questions about the man.
I thought that if I told Kyung-hee this story, maybe it would ease my guard against Lee Ye-ji.
Fortunately, Lee Ye-ji quickly started talking with a smile.
“He said he likes me like a cat.”
“Oh yeah?”
“Have you been like a cat since elementary school or something?”
“hahahaha… ”
“Perhaps it would have been better if I had been a cat mutant, but since I was a normal person, it would have been a bit of a waste. He must have thought that too.”
“Be mutated… Is that okay?”
I laughed shyly.
I just needed some information to cover her up to calm her down.
I didn’t know that I would move to the subject of mutation so suddenly.
However, Lee Ye-ji didn’t seem to care that much, and immediately dragged the subject there.
“I think it’s okay for a mutant and a normal couple.”
“is that so?”
“yes. I know that there are no cases where a mutant person has a big problem in daily life… There’s no way we can’t overcome each other.”
“okay.”
“Well, no matter what other people say. I think it’s okay if you’re happy.”
“I think it would be inconvenient. There are many things to be considerate of.”
“That’s it, I guess. If you are a dog, would you suffer because you have a good sense of smell?”
Lee Ye-ji laughed as if it was a joke, but I couldn’t help but laugh.
In fact, Kyung-hee’s hearing was very good, so it wasn’t the only thing he cared about.
As usual, I had to pay more attention when I showed abnormal symptoms from time to time.
Because of that, the joke was practically the same as reality.
Fortunately, Lee Ye-ji didn’t seem to notice that I was strange.
Instead, Lee Ye-ji changed the subject and started talking about Park Jin-soo and Han So-wol.
“Ah, I see. Jinsu, he said he was dating a girlfriend.”
“Right, what.”
“Did you say Han So-wol? I heard he’s a snake mutant.”
“Did you know, too?”
“yes. I asked because my pupils were vertical, and he said yes.”
I stepped on the chair and climbed up with a faint smile.
Even after closing the last window at the top, Lee Ye-ji’s story continued.
There wasn’t much of anything important.
I didn’t know that Park Jin-soo would date a girlfriend like that.
Still, since we’ve been dating for a while, I wish we could go to the end.
As a close senior, there were only things like worrying about and cheering on the juniors.
So I thought it would be good to end the story moderately.
No matter how much today’s class is the last, time doesn’t fly forever.
As for me, I wanted to ask questions in moderation and then go back to the tutoring room to study.
I waited for a while because I thought I could finish the story in the middle.
It seems that Yeji Lee has nothing to say.
“Does he still take his girlfriend to drinking parties these days?”
“Perhaps.”
“is it… ”
“Oh right. Senior, maybe… ”
“But Han So-wol seems a bit strange.”
“… Yeah?”
“I think Park Jin-soo noticed, but if you tease a woman like that, he’ll bite you.”
“I beg your pardon?”
I couldn’t help but be surprised.
Park Jin-soo, that bastard, acted as if he hadn’t noticed it at all.
I don’t know if Lee Ye-ji has a particularly good eye for it.
Even in a situation where other people noticed that Han So-wol was strange to some extent.
He acted like he knew nothing.
On the other hand, Lee Ye-ji replied as if it was nothing.
“I thought you knew, didn’t you?”
“I should have known, but… ”
“Well, I don’t think he’s that terribly weird. A little too much love? know?”
“Yes, what… ”
“Above all, Park Jin-soo took good care of the child, so it was really amazing? Just like someone who trains.”
Originally, I intended to finish the story moderately and ask about the concepts I learned today.
But when it happened like this, the thought vanished.
I naturally lifted the load Yeji Lee had to carry.
Lee Ye-ji didn’t know that, and looked at the empty coffee cup and grumbled that she was tired and sleepy.
After a while, she saw me carrying my luggage and smiled shyly.
“Oh, I need to hear that… ”
“it’s okay. Could we go to the lab and talk more?”
“yes?”
“There are a few more things I want to ask you.”
“Ahh. Come to think of it, did you come back after class? Sorry, I just continued my story.”
“No, it’s fine. That bastard Jinsu was worried about me too.”
“I’m glad then.”
Lee Ye-ji took out the key from the gown she was wearing and checked the lab one last time.
I could see if there was a schedule to be done before going out, or he was taking out a notebook and counting things.
After that, Lee Ye-ji locked the door of the laboratory and came out.
“Would you like some coffee?”
“If you can, I’d appreciate it.”
This needs to be said more.
So I wanted to keep talking even if I bought you coffee.
When things went so well, there was no reason to decline.
After entering the lab, Lee Ye-ji immediately took out an instant coffee.
As if he had already made and drank coffee several times, there was a separate space on one side of the lab.
Most of them didn’t just drink instant coffee, it seemed like they drank other things from time to time.
Beans or something like that were prepared separately, but there were several types.
Lee Ye-ji, who had been boiling water with an electric kettle, slowly looked at me.
Then, after telling me where to put my luggage down, I picked up the beans.
I hurriedly said it was not necessary.
“Even instant coffee is enough, senior.”
“yes?”
“Yeah.”
Yeji Lee took out more instant coffee with a more comfortable expression.
It must have been troublesome to brew coffee beans.
I put two packets of instant coffee into a paper cup and waited.
Lee Ye-ji picked up a few more bags of coffee and started pouring them into the mug.
And I started to drink coffee that was so thick that I wondered if I could drink it.
In fact, it was hard to even call it liquid, but Lee Ye-ji was familiar with it.
It was as if he was addicted to something, so for some reason I felt sorry for him.
I wondered how long I had to sleep without drinking coffee like that.
Lee Ye-ji must have noticed that I was looking at her like that, so she slowly averted her gaze and made excuses.
If you try not to sleep, you have to drink a few cups of this amount of coffee a day.
I tried to chat about health for a moment, but then I just shut up.
Even if she tried to consume less caffeine, she wouldn’t be able to until she graduated from graduate school.
