Ayame is called by Yoko. The three of them, Natsune, Yoko and Ayame, decide to eat samgyetang, a dish filled with glutinous rice.
Yoko, who found out about her relationship with Touya, scolded Ayame, saying, "So you were that level of woman." She then said, "You should apologize to Natsune first," but Ayame laughed and said, "Hehe. Apologize? Are you sorry that your husband loved you so much that he hit you?"
Natsune retorted, "Touya loves you? Hehe. Kajin-sensei, why are you so confident?", but Ayame pushed back, "It seems to be fine. It's because I'm not your wife."
Natsune added, "I've thought the same from the beginning that I'm not like a lawyer. Would it have been okay to live alone like you and die alone? How is that better than Toya and I living together?" she said, laughing with Yoko.
However, Ayame calmly spat out, "Am I the first woman he's cheated on? Maybe he's had someone like me before."
On social media, the event became a hot topic, with comments such as "What is this hellish dining table lol", "The samgyetang girls' get-together was too chaotic", "Is he trying to get the upper hand by using domestic violence? A terrifying samgyetang party", and "A three-way samgyetang party between women was too scary."
