Chapter 24: Butterfly Effect
Although Lee Sa-young had proposed a deal first and even given his phone number, he didn't come back to the store for several days. During that time, Cha Eui-jae didn't delete his number. Nor did he sell it on Tomato Market. Instead, Cha Eui-jae found himself staring at Lee Sa-young's contact information, lost in thought more often.

For example...
"Yes, this is the hangover soup restaurant."
—Hello, this is Kim So-young, a writer from MBB Broadcasting. May I speak with you?
"I'm sorry, but we don't do deliveries."
—It's not about delivery. I wanted to ask if you'd be interested in appearing on a show. Our program airs live on weekdays at 7 PM, and...
"We don't appear on broadcasts."
—If we promote your place as a hunter's hotspot, it would help with...
"I'm not interested. We're busy with customers, so I'll hang up now."
Or there were incidents like this happening once a day,
"Sir."
