Cho-yeon threw off the dcdde3b1fa bunny blanket 1583b0f436 and stood 5a52c87351 up abruptly. He pulled the magazine closer to 362f77d0f5 his chest and 86b2b182a8 looked up at 8b277923c9 her, his eyes wide. He looked f4e8b1997c kind of cute from 0fc69d2872 above, but c1aca1af5a the muscles hiding the 4f043ae43f magazine were 33b733cda8 not cute 15a7a0ea7f at all.f8ca2cfc364df4d7

It was as if Kwon Min-hyun was a preacher sent to introduce the concept of dopamine into Ji Cho-yeon’s boring life. Her fingertips tingled and her toes wiggled, her desire to grab the magazine burning fiercely.

“That’s unpredictability, too. It’s a prejudice to assume I’ve had a lot of relationships just because I look like a delinquent. I was too busy with my research to have time for dating.”78e84f0b5a853c18

The family had been brewing alcohol here since the early Joseon Dynasty. They had a deep connection to Cho-yeon’s maternal family.

“Well, look at this crowd! To make glutinous rice wine, you need three things: glutinous rice, yeast, and water. Yeast is the most important ingredient. Now we’re going to step on the yeast. Step on it hard to squeeze out the air and get rid of the bubbles. You need to make the yeast work hard. If the yeast doesn’t do its job, the wine will be a little off. And I’ll go bankrupt.”48bff4914ba062f1
The participants laughed at the owner’s humorous explanation. Yeast stepping was done in pairs, and Cho-yeon and Min-hyun were the only young couple. They stood facing each other, a large, round lump of yeast between them, and started stepping.8d42b939a7be5776
