Gender Swap: The Introvert’s Broadcast
Chapter 169

For a while, the broadcast went on very intensively.

There was so much to do on the stream.

Content for the broadcast could be easily found by watching other YouTubers, so there wasn’t much need to stress about it.

About a month passed by like this.

“Hmm…”

“Hey, if you keep lounging around like this, you won’t have enough exercise and won’t make it to college later.”

“I’m too lazy…”

Lee Yea-ram, as usual, was resting at home.

She wasn’t going to school anymore.

Anyway.

“But starting today, we need to get moving. We need to go see some houses.”

“H-Houses!?”

Starting today, we had to move.

We needed to go see houses.

‘I never expected to make this much money so quickly.’

At least ten hours of streaming a day.

Sometimes twelve hours.

I had been trying to stream as much as possible, but the reason why I had accumulated more money than I had expected was simple.

‘The ads have been pouring in.’

Of course, I didn’t accept low-quality ads.

I only accepted decent ones.

It seemed like word had gotten around among advertisers that I was a good bet.

Still, there were a lot of ads.

I was running ads almost every three days.

‘...Thank goodness the viewers understand.’

I was lucky that I had been strict with the broadcast’s rules and had managed to lead it effectively.

If it hadn’t been for that, I’d be getting complaints by now.

Thinking that, I checked my bank balance.

[Balance: 182,901,021 won]

‘Not bad.’

It had only been a while since it was at 40 million won, but now, after streaming with all my might, the money had been steadily increasing.

I hardly spent any money, so that helped.

Thinking that, I picked up my phone and made a call.

Ring-ring—.

There was a brief sound of the phone connecting—

Hello?

It was a familiar voice.

“Hey, Harin.”

I’m on my way to pick you up, so just wait a bit.

“Got it.”

I’ll hang up now since I need to focus on driving.

And with that, the call ended.

It seemed like she needed to concentrate because it was a tough section to drive through.

“Let’s get ready then.”

“Yeah…”

Lee Yea-ram yawned and got up to put on her clothes.

Normally, she would just wear sweatpants, but today, since she was meeting Harin, she made sure to dress up.

She was even wearing jeans.

‘She really does like Harin, doesn’t she?’

She had been watching Harin’s streams a lot at home.

I smiled to myself as I also got dressed and waited.

Then, a little while later—

Beep-beep—.

The sound of honking from downstairs.

“Hmm, she’s here.”

Hearing that, I went down to the first floor, and a solid-looking car was waiting for us.

I knew it was probably worth about 180 million won.

“This looks pretty expensive.”

“...Wow, I’ve only seen this car in videos…”

I thought it was impressive, and as I stood there, Harin opened the window and spoke.

“Hurry up and get in, we need to go.”

“Okay.”

And so, we got into Harin’s car and started moving.

There were several reasons why we ended up riding in Harin’s car.

The first reason was that I didn’t have a driver’s license or a car.

The second reason was that Harin was very knowledgeable about houses.

‘I heard she got scammed by a rental fraud before and studied hard so that it wouldn’t happen again.’

She had been studying related laws, even while streaming, to make sure she wouldn’t get scammed again.

Now, she knew most of the laws, and I thought that was impressive as I spoke to Harin, who was driving.

“Let’s go to the first house.”

“I’m already heading there.”

“Got it.”

We had talked a lot during the drive.

Even though I was a pretty laid-back person, I couldn’t afford to be careless when it came to finding a house.

After all, all our money was on the line.

I had to gather as much information as I could.

After gathering all the information, I had narrowed down the options to three houses.

‘I have to find somewhere close to where Lee Yea-ram goes to school.’

Before I took a leave of absence, I had realized that it’s best to go to school as close as possible.

If you think it’ll be fine to live far away, you’re in for a rude awakening.

It’s just exhausting.

With that in mind, I chose the house we were going to visit.

Of course, I had already contacted the real estate agent.

‘I’ll need to take the agent with me to check out the house.’

To be honest, I didn’t trust the real estate agent, but what else could I do?

He was supposedly an expert in the field.

If I didn’t trust him, I had no other option.

Thinking that, we arrived at the first house.

Screech—.

“We’ve arrived.”

Finally, we reached the first house.

It was about a 20-minute drive from where we currently lived.

It wasn’t too far, but not too close either.

“Ah, I’m nervous for some reason. Phew…”

I hadn’t been nervous at all while checking online, but now that I was about to sign a contract, I felt uneasy.

I couldn’t shake the thought of possibly getting scammed.

As I was thinking that—

“What are you so worried about?”

Harin, casually, patted my shoulder.

At that, my tension eased almost instantly.

“Phew… That’s true. I won’t worry.”

“Don’t worry, that’s not like you, just don’t stress about it.”

“Got it.”

With Harin’s encouragement, I lightly knocked on the door.

Screech—.

The door opened, and the real estate agent and a man I hadn’t seen before appeared.

He must have been the owner of the house.

I bowed slightly, feeling a bit nervous.

“Hello!”

“Oh… A young man like you is already looking for a house? Are you perhaps newlyweds?”

The man said with a somewhat pleased expression.

I was caught off guard.

Why was he assuming that?

Just as I was getting flustered, Harin suddenly spoke.

“Well, that might happen in the future. We’re still getting to know each other.”

“Hm-hm, that’s nice.”

Harin said that, completely joking.

What did she mean by "getting to know each other"?

We already knew everything about each other.

I stared at Harin, bewildered.

“Heh.”

Harin smiled at me and walked into the house.

“Eh…”

Lee Yea-ram seemed confused, alternating between looking at us.

‘Harin wasn’t like this before.’

I didn’t know why Harin was pulling these high-level pranks lately.

Maybe I’d need to scold her later.

With that thought, we entered the house—

“You can feel the warmth, right? The house faces south, so sunlight comes in well.”

I could immediately feel the warmth of the house.

Of course, the heating was on, but it was the sunlight that made it feel warm, not just the heater.

It gave a pleasant feeling, almost like a mood boost.

‘When I lived in a studio, the sunlight was always awkward and didn’t feel right.’

Sunlight really has a big impact on quality of life.

I thought about it as I started testing different areas of the house.

Of course, I was doing this with Harin.

She was an expert in these matters, so I trusted her judgment.

The first thing we tested was the water pressure.

“The water pressure... seems fine. It’s coming out nicely.”

Actually, strong water pressure isn’t always a good thing.

If it’s too strong, it can make washing dishes uncomfortable.

With that thought, I checked a few other things, like whether there were any bugs.

“Hm…”

Harin wandered around the house, inspecting carefully for any signs of pests.

She wasn’t just doing a cursory check, she was going through the dirty corners as well.

After checking for a while—

“…It’s fine.”

Harin gave her verdict.

Knowing Harin’s standards, I was impressed.

When she said something was fine, it meant it really was.

‘Should I sign the contract right now?’

I was wondering that when—

“Let’s go see the next house.”

Harin said that and gave a light farewell.

“Ahaha, alright, go ahead and look around.”

“Yep.”

The real estate agent didn’t seem particularly insistent on keeping us there.

I found it a bit odd.

It seemed like a great house, but we were just leaving without making any agreements.

‘...Should I go back and talk to him again?’

I thought that as we walked away slowly.

“Don’t worry. No one is going to be looking for houses in the winter anyway.”

It was like Harin had read my mind.

“…I wasn’t worried.”

“Then that’s that.”

I couldn’t help but argue a little, then I got back in the car.

We had to go check the other houses.

After visiting a few more houses, we came to a conclusion.

“The first house is the best.”

There was no doubt about it. It was the best option.
