I thought he was going to press me right away, but Chase didn’t say anything else and just looked down. Before he turned his head, I thought I saw his gaze glance down at the bottom line of the diary.

After that, the atmosphere was somehow good. That is, until I revealed my ambitions to Chase and confidently made a business proposal.

“What are you going to prepare?”

Chase, who was laying out several layers of paper towels on a plate and putting down fried chicken pieces one by one, suddenly stopped moving his hands. The fragrant smell of oil tickled his nose, and his mouth started to water.

I tried to wait quietly, but it was too much work, so I just wandered around the table until I finally couldn’t hold it in any longer and reached out for a piece of chicken. However, Chase, who noticed it like a ghost, grabbed my hand right away.

“It’s hot. Wait a minute.”

“It’s delicious even when it’s hot.”

“No. It’ll burn the roof of my mouth.”

“Yeontan-i wants to eat it right now…”

“Tell Babpul to wait a moment. Continue what you were saying. What are you preparing?”

I looked up from my foolish gaze at the piece of fried chicken. Well, now is the time to talk about something important. I confidently shouted, slamming the table with the hand that Chase wasn’t holding.

“It’s an investment firm!”

A somewhat angry reply came right back.

“Do you know what that is? It’s not something you eat.”

“What, are you ignoring me?”

“uh.”

“Well…”

Honestly, I had nothing to say when he ignored me. I stared blankly at Chase’s doll-like side profile and sighed deeply. Anyway, I had no choice but to let it go since I was the one who was disappointed. I showed him the message from Director Bruno on my phone and spoke to Chase as if trying to appease him.

“Have you seen my bank account balance? The amount of land compensation is enormous.”

“Yeah, I told you to keep it safe. Don’t touch it and just use the interest.”

“How can you make money by only receiving interest? Money makes money, right?”

“Don’t answer calls from unknown numbers from now on.”

“That movie I told you about last time, you should invest in it. Remember how I kept talking about it?”

“Did you install a spam blocking app? Hand me your phone.”

“But they say that it’s not something that just anyone can invest in. They say you have to set up an investment company. Oh, don’t take my phone away! Are you listening to me?”

“Why don’t you give it to me? This puppy…!”

“The director said he would take care of the establishment process. So, I think it would be good if Chase could help invest in film production. Hehe…”

“What are you saying? Me?”

“Then should I do it?”

“What? You can’t do it! What do you know how to do?”

“See, you did that on purpose?”

“Understood…”

No matter how much I know about the future of this world, investing is not something that just anyone can do. It was even more so for someone like me who had never even properly done banking transactions, let alone invested, because I had no money to save.

Even if I provide the funds, I cannot take charge of the investment company myself, so I planned to proceed with the project with a director who has worked in the strategy planning department of the Kaisha Group for a long time and Chase, whose ability has been proven in the original work, as co-CEOs. That is, if Chase will accept my request.

But Chase didn’t seem to have any intention of doing as I said. Then he suddenly frowned and put his hand on his forehead as if he was feeling morning sickness.

“You’re driving me crazy, for real. Stop thinking about causing trouble and just rest, you puppy!”

“Don’t call me a fucking puppy!”

“Then what should I say?”

“Be gentle with me. I am the baby’s father!”

“Why does the puppy ask for so many things?”

But now he didn’t growl and say he’d eat it even if it was just a bite. Chase’s temper had also calmed down a lot. After all, Yeontan was growing inside his stomach, so he couldn’t live like a child and act like a child forever. A child shouldn’t raise a child, right?

While the fried chicken was cooling down just enough to eat, I talked to Chase about something more specific. Chase said that no matter how amazing I was, I had to meet with the production company before investing. I felt like I bit my tongue when I said the word “amazing.”

“You need to meet the director in person, listen to what he has to say, and find out about the production environment and direction. It’s not like you are just throwing money at him for no reason.”

“yes yes.”

“There’s no need to rush. It’s your money and you’re the one who’s going to do it, so go ahead and do it. But even if you lose everything, invest only enough that it won’t affect the future of you and Bobpul.

“It’s not rice cake, it’s briquette.”

“Don’t worry about legal issues or other procedures. I’ll meet with the director and take care of them. I guess things have cooled down a bit.”

“Oh, okay…”

ah

“Eat this, too, with the seasoned pieces. Is it good?”

“yes.”

The thing that saddened me the most when I fell into this world was that there was no Korean-style fried chicken with half and half seasoning. I wanted to eat the old-fashioned whole chicken I bought once a month on my payday from my part-time job or the fried chicken from the market.

A few days ago, I was sitting on the sofa with my legs up and a gloomy face, and Chase asked me what was wrong. I answered sullenly, with my tail hanging down and my ears folded in half.
