Chapter 313



Weekdays are long, while weekends are short.

This is an unchanging truth I’ve learned since my young student days.

Similarly, vacations feel incredibly short compared to the usual work periods. Even if the vacation itself was long, by the time it’s ending, it always feels too short.

This is only natural. Just as sweet as rest is, it has a unique density that steals our time away.

Even now, it was the same. It wasn’t my intention, but after wrapping up my summer vacation and water play broadcast,

“Sigh….”

My room, where I returned to broadcast, felt so bleak.

[You’re sighing right after coming back?]

[Wouldn’t you sigh after having so much fun?]

[You had a great time with Geumtaeyang at the beach, and then got lost playing with the nerds, huh? LOL]

[Hey now.]

[In the end, we proved that our Kayaks are superior to alpha males like Geumtaeyang…. Kayaks can be with Kayak unlike Geumtaeyang….]

[That’s really gloomy.]

[What did you do on the third and last days without broadcasting?]

[Looks like you’re immediately seeing the Kayak ㅋㅋ]

“Seriously, coming back just takes away all motivation to work…. Playing with Taker and Geumtaeyang was fun….”

[What?]

[What what what what what?]

[Take that back…!]

[What were you doing playing with Taker and Geumtaeyang? Hmm….]

[Can you not feel the vibes from the pathetic Kayak’s chat anymore?]

[Ah haha, just let those money bags donate like money bags should ㅋㅋ]

[The noodle soup-obsessed Kayak is weeping ㅠㅠㅠㅠ]

As I jokingly ridiculed the viewers, they responded with self-deprecating humor.

I could no longer stand the scene of them biting into themselves. Having refreshed myself through the trip and sorted my thoughts in the Cave of Truth, I finally opened up to the viewers about my true feelings.

“To be honest, playing with you guys is fun. I even thought about broadcasting while traveling….”

Riding the wave of the mood, I threw in a few short, embarrassing lines. Thanks to the viewers watching steadily, I could work hard on my broadcasts, and I made it this far all because of the viewers, and so on.

However, the viewers’ reactions were unusual.

[Here we go again with the noodle soup…]

[Grrr… can’t take it anymore….]

[Feeling like dropping some bad chat….]

[Are you brainwashing us to talk about noodle soup regularly?]

[You’re truly a scary person, Kayak.]

[No no no, we’re broadcasters, that kind of bad chat can’t fly.]

[No, no, no to bad chatting]

[What’s wrong with brewing broth?]

[LOL, this is just too good]

[So if I move on here, do I become a brain-fried Kayak?]

[Seriously, Kayak is legendary]

[I know it’s acting, but I can’t help but fall for it]

[This is why they say to stay away from women, huh]

[With that face, they’d probably take out my guts for a favor lol]

[What’s with that nostalgic expression ;;]

[Went on vacation and learned something weird again]

[Seems like their acting skills are getting better]

[Chadoljjamppong donated 10,000 won!]

– I know it’s lip service, but it sounds nice.

“Uh… I’m serious though? Not just empty words.”

[No, no, no to the lie about being serious]

[Ugh… Kayak is such a fool….]

[Viewers might be precious, but they’re probably not as precious as the broadcast host said….]

[As expected, brewing broth is Camilla lol]

[Kayaks all have excellent meta perception skills, though]

“Hey, why can’t you just take people’s words at face value?”

After that, they exchanged cringy compliments about how precious and loved the viewers were, leading to a verbal sparring match.

“What’s today’s snack~~ gonna be~~.”

[What is it?]

[Wow, I want a snack too]

[Are you eating snacks again?]

[How long has it been since you ate a meal that you need a snack?]

[Riri seems to be in season lately; she’s really gaining weight]

[Of course, someone sitting all day would gain weight lol]

[If you keep eating sweet stuff, it’s not good for your health]

[Let’s avoid saying bad things like ‘Is this a person or a pig’]

[These days, even young people get diabetes easily]

[Do you even go outside?]

Riri returned to the cam with delivery desserts in hand, but the viewers’ cold reactions made her pout.

Can’t I just eat some snacks? Why is everyone so sensitive?

“Why is everyone saying stuff lately? I’m just gonna have a little bite. Don’t you know the saying that you don’t bother a dog while it’s eating? It’s been too hot lately, so I’m not going outside much… but that’s okay, I can manage and shed it later.”

As Riri convinced herself of this, she nodded in satisfaction, and then…

[Spine Fairy donated 1,000 won!]

– Riri’s lumbar is screaming for help due to the sudden weight gain.

“Ugh, you keep saying things like I’ve gained weight or that I’m getting chubby. That’s seriously rude, you know? I was in a good mood and now I’m annoyed…”

“[Why are you all talking so much??]”

“[Savage on]”

“[Seriously, you losers]”

“[The host does have her banter going, but she’s still a woman]”

“[Dude, lol why get so upset over just a little teasing]”

“[Dude
