“I’ll contact you through my secretary.”
Min-young carefully examined Kang-woo’s lips, moving leisurely. The gaze of a man who pretended to be indifferent when it fixed on the sapphire-studded tie pin. Concealing her subtle intentions, Min-young rose from her seat.
After relocating for the second round, some time had passed. Looking at the time, it was already past 10 o’clock.
While others were engrossed in conversation, Se-ah checked her phone under the table.
There were no new messages from Kang-woo. Of course, I didn’t contact him either because I didn’t want to bother him while he was working, but I couldn’t help but worry.
When you devote your heart to one man for nine years, you become quite sensitive. My love may become tattered, but it quickly recovers. Truly, the elasticity was impressive.
When lifting the glass to soothe the bitter feeling, Do-young absentmindedly handed her a glass.
“Why are you drinking alone? Let’s drink together.”
“Just because everyone is engaged in conversation.”
When Do-young opened his mouth to speak, there was the sound of a chair being dragged. The others mentioned going home, so they exchanged greetings. Se-ah offered to accompany them to the passing station.
When only the two remained, Se-ah awkwardly scratched the back of her neck. While contemplating if she should use the excuse of going to the restroom to leave, Do-young broke the silence.
“Did you hear anything from the CEO by any chance?”
“What? What…”
“The day I went to see the CEO to resign.”
“Yes.”
Do-young looked at Se-ah with wide eyes. When mentioning Cha Kang-woo, he finally stared at her intently. It seemed like he was urging her to explain.
Yeah, don’t act coy. Just say it. If you reveal that you are the CEO’s wife, Se-ah would probably be very pleased. When Do-young finally spoke, Se-ah raised the vibrating phone.
“Oh? Wait a moment. Do-young, sorry. Can I finish this later?”
“Of course. It wasn’t anything important. Go ahead and check.”
“Yes. Maybe the writer Jina will come in a moment.”
Se-ah showed a sheepish smile as an apology. A somewhat bitter look lingered in her gaze as she hurriedly turned away.
Se-ah’s steps quickened after receiving a sudden call that Kang-woo was here.
Surprisingly, about five minutes away from the second location, Kang-woo was standing in front of the convenience store. She approached him as if leaping towards him, waving her hand.
“How did you know I was here? I didn’t even tell you.”
Opening his lips somewhat clumsily, he suddenly came closer. Se-ah’s nostrils touched the tip of his nose, and she straightened her upper body. For a moment, the ends of her gaze sharply rose.
“Indeed, you’ve been drinking.”
I didn’t notice because I saw his handsome face first. Now I saw that he had a hangover relief in his hand. I watched him endlessly open the bottle cap.
“…I haven’t had much.”
“It seems so. Drink.”
Tunk, she received the drink he handed. It hesitated to swallow it because it was the first time trying it, and she didn’t know the taste.
“Drink it all.”
“…Yes.”
After finishing it, without realizing it, she handed him the empty bottle. Realizing belatedly, he casually took the bottle with his right hand.
Then, he subtly held my hand. Se-ah pretended not to know and tightly shook his hand.
“What’s going on? I thought you’d just ignore me.”
“Just because.”
“Let’s drink occasionally.”
While holding hands, we stood facing each other for a moment. The black pupils, dimming with the setting sun, lazily descended. As the tension drained from her body, Kang-woo let go of her hand.
“It seems like you came after everything was over. Judging by your appearance.”
“My appearance?”
“You don’t have a wallet or a bag. Just a phone.”
“Oh. Right. I have to go in, say hello, and come out. But what about your car?”
“I called a chauffeur. He’ll take care of it.”
“Why did you do that? I could have called a chauffeur for you.”
“It’s dangerous at night. I can provide a shuttle service for you.”
Kang-woo, who was teasing, stopped walking. Se-ah’s hand slipped away during their walk.
In the end, as if expecting you to let go first, Se-ah clenched her fist. This small cat-like woman has been holding onto me since some time ago.
They stood still in front of the crosswalk. Kang-woo wrapped Se-ah’s cold hands with his own.
“Your hands are cold. It’s like that everywhere, but.”
“Who’s there?”
“Looks like we didn’t know there was anyone else here. Only me watching?”
As expected, there was no one else. Kang-woo only watched intently. As Se-ah tried to lower her arms, a warm hand grabbed hers. A long finger that sneaked in tightly grasped her hand.
“But how did you really find your way here?”
“There’s nothing I don’t know about you.”
Se-ah’s question was natural. She probably didn’t notice the two bodyguards trailing her all this time.
“No way… I didn’t track you on my phone, did I?”
“I’m not that crude.”
“Oh! Do-young told you, right? No wonder, earlier he was going to tell me something.”
As soon as they crossed the road, Kang-woo’s steps abruptly stopped.
“Were you hanging out with Kim Do-young? I didn’t know that.”
Se-ah’s gaze shook. There were several times when they fought involving Do-young. The curiosity about how he ended up here disappeared, fearing that their relationship might sour again.
“To be honest, I didn’t know Do-young was here. Jina, the writer, called a few people. It’s not just the two of us meeting.”
While explaining, not too awkwardly, my heart was pounding. Even though she might not know about other things, she was remarkably sensitive about Do-young. Sometimes, getting excited, and sometimes, becoming frighteningly cold.
Sighing low, Kang-woo showed a smile. His lips, suddenly softened, were dizzying. I wonder what this reaction means.
“It’s possible.”
“Yes?”
“While working, you might end up getting along with colleagues. See that pub over there? Second floor.”
“…Ah, yes. But is it really okay…”
“Yeah.”
“Why did it suddenly change like this?”
Se-ah hung on Kang-woo’s arm, looking somewhat displeased. When Se-ah asked again if she really didn’t feel unpleasant, Kang-woo gently stroked her shoulders.
“I can’t just give up everything, stay at home, and live only looking at you, can I? Besides, it’s selfish to say that I won’t meet anyone else when I meet with this manager. Moreover, I can’t let you meet him.”
“…”
“I have to respect it, even if your insides boil with jealousy. That way, you’ll grow up.”
What’s with the sudden sentiment. Se-ah’s tender eyes were seen getting moist. When she clung to Kang-woo’s arm like a small child, asking if it was really okay, she gently rubbed her shoulder.
“When it’s over, contact me. I’ll be around here.”
“Okay.”
Watching her small back until it was completely out of sight, I tried to step on the sidewalk belatedly.
“Kang-woo!”
Se-ah, who came out onto the road, ran toward us with a bright smile and hugged the product tightly.
“I love you. I’m trying not to be apart even for just 10 minutes.”
No matter how much she stretched, her arms wouldn’t be able to fully wrap around my body. Nevertheless, she hugged me tightly with all her strength.
Happier than any other man, it felt like a dream.
To the point of forgetting the reality that someone is watching.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
