“Why are you coming here when I said let’s have dinner together?”
Sa Rang frowned as Do Han’s car stopped in front of her house.
She wanted to buy a meal for a colleague who had a rough day at work, but being a good mentor seemed so difficult.
She was annoyed that he didn’t give her a chance today either.
“Next time. I’m a bit tired today.”
Do Han knew he couldn’t face Sa Rang with his current demeanor.
It was obvious she would just look at his injured lips without eating properly.
Normally, he would have been overjoyed at the invitation to dinner, but not today.
That’s why he felt even more irritated at Tae Soo, who had caused all this trouble.
Maybe he should have avoided him.
He regretted facing Tae Soo head-on with the intention of sending him off properly.
“Go in. Have a nice weekend.”
Even though it was Friday and he wished her a good weekend, Sa Rang kept her seatbelt fastened and her eyes fixed on the windshield.
“Aren’t you getting out?”
“Yes.”
Sa Rang clenched her eyes and stubbornly insisted.
She was determined to have dinner with him no matter what.
But he wasn’t the type to turn the car towards a restaurant just because of that.
The tense standoff between the two weighed down the air inside the car.
A brief silence added to the tension.
“If you don’t get out now, I’ll take you to my house just like this.”
Do Han watched her reaction.
As expected, she was visibly startled.
It was a threat to get her to leave quickly, but she regained her composure and replied calmly.
“Okay, let’s go to your house, Ji Do Han.”
“It’s not a joke, get out.”
“I’m not joking either.”
Seeing the clarity in Sa Rang’s eyes, Do Han hesitated and closed his mouth.
What was she thinking, following him?
Did she even realize what he was imagining doing to her?
She must be clueless.
If she had any idea, she would get out of the car right now.
Do Han sighed softly and unbuckled his seatbelt.
He turned to open the passenger door for her, but just then, Sa Rang made a call.
“Ji Woo.”
He paused, puzzled why she was suddenly calling Kang Ji Woo.
“I won’t be coming home tonight, see you tomorrow.”
Do Han was more shocked than Ji Woo.
The thought of her staying with him made his mind go blank.
His heart raced without even understanding the full meaning.
What are you talking about? Why aren’t you coming home?
“I want to stay out tonight.”
Are you going on a trip or something?
“No. It’s personal, so don’t ask.”
Why are you doing something you’ve never done before? Where are you going alone…
“I’m not alone.”
Then who are you with?
“A man.”
…What?
“Bye then.”
Hey! Sa Rang!!
Although a sharp voice came through the phone, Sa Rang ended the call mercilessly.
She then turned off the phone entirely.
Her heart was racing even though she hadn’t stayed out yet.
She trembled like a teenager sneaking out without her parents knowing.

Having lived so uprightly all this time, her face was tense as if she had become a criminal over such a trivial matter.
It was Sa Rang’s first act of rebellion in her life.
She tried to look calm as she suddenly shifted her gaze towards Do Han.
“Aren’t you going?”
Her face heated up at the thought that he had heard the entire conversation.
She had blatantly suggested spending the night together, so how shocked must this man be.
Usually, it was always Ji Woo who was reckless, but today, she felt she had outdone him.
“Where should we go, then?”
Do Han tried to calm his wildly beating heart.
He was incredulous that he was even a man in Sa Rang’s eyes, but he tried to think rationally.
The meaning of her staying out could be different from what he knew.
Her previous suggestion to take a break somewhere after the outing might have had a different meaning, so this could too.
“To your house, Ji Do Han.”
The location was the same as he had in mind.
But what about after that? Would the rest align with his thoughts?
Do Han maintained his composure to the end.
“I’m not taking you, my junior, to my house.”
“I’m not going to a colleague’s house either.”
“If you come to my house, you can’t leave. At least not today.”
“That’s why I called Ji Woo. To say I’d be staying out.”
“So that staying out means…”
Do Han stopped talking and took a long breath.
It was clear he didn’t know how else to explain.
Being too direct might be inappropriate.
Being vague might lead to misunderstanding.
Caught in this dilemma and unable to speak, Sa Rang summed it up in one sentence.
“I want to be with you.”
Finally, Do Han’s heart sank as he looked down at her, her eyes fixed on the floor.
“If you don’t like it, I’ll leave.”
Sa Rang clasped her hands tightly, seemingly anxious.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
