The chaebol second or third generation that I knew flashed through my mind. For them, who were busy either working or playing, the house was just a means of displaying and accumulating wealth.
Most of the houses they lived in, decorated like model houses, were devoid of any signs of life.
Therefore, the chances that the house, so elaborately and cutely decorated, belonged to Kang Tae Seo were slim.
But why did she envision that house whenever she smelled his scent?
“It’s a nice neighborhood. A little far from here, but it has a quiet and cozy feel.”
“That’s surprising. I thought you’d live in a neighborhood with high walls, where the land is really expensive.”
Tae Seo crinkled his forehead and laughed.
Tae Seo knew that Jae In did not inquire or show curiosity about his job or the extent of his wealth. The fact that she didn’t ask, even though it would be natural to be curious, meant she already knew.
Of course, she had received his business card through Director Jang. So, she should have some idea.
However, Tae Seo was curious to what extent Jae In knew and was approaching him. Based on that, he also needed to decide how much he should open up to Jae In.
While trying to figure out Jae In’s thoughts, Tae Seo thought of something and smiled.
“The painting you won earlier, it will be delivered by tomorrow.”
“Yes.”
“Then you can come and see it anytime.”
“I will.”
“But, I’m not going to show it to you for free.”
“You said you’d give me anything…”
“That’s because Miss Yoon Jae In hasn’t given a clear answer about our relationship yet.”
Kang Tae Seo was a definite businessman. He was a person who set clear boundaries and kept promises. It seemed he had no intention of overlooking the part Jae In had glossed over.
“If it’s not for free then…?”
Jae In, pretending not to have heard what Tae Seo pointed out, opened her eyes wide. It seemed like it would be disappointing if he were to make an inappropriate request.
Of course, it was Jae In who first said she would go to his house to see the painting.
In fact, she was surprised at what she had blurted out at the time. The words had come out so naturally. She only realized that they could be seen as a provocation, a temptation to a man after she had already spoken them out.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“That expression you’re making, something’s bothering you, isn’t it?”
After the kiss at the Art Center earlier, Jae In wasn’t unaware of how Tae Seo’s gaze kept landing on her lips.
Kissing him was good. Even without any point of comparison, she was certain about it. The fact that she couldn’t think about anything else while being drawn into a kiss with him, beyond his skills, was proof.
Thinking about their passionate kiss made her heart flutter. Even when she tried not to think about it, it was on constant replay in her mind. Jae In tried hard to suppress the fluttering feeling that she was experiencing for the first time.
Sharing a natural kiss with him still felt burdensome. It was something that could be left to time as they grew closer. Tae Seo gave a mischievous smile as Jae In looked at him with a sullen expression.
He was also an astonishingly handsome man. Jae In found herself unwittingly smiling with him.
“Don’t view me as such a person. I may have said that I’m an easy man for Miss Yoon Jae In, but that doesn’t mean I take you lightly.”
“Hmm…”
“Lemon Madeleines.”
At the unexpected words, Jae In’s round eyes grew larger.
“Bake Lemon Madeleines for me. By Miss Yoon Jae In, herself. The most delicious Lemon Madeleines in the world.”
“… How do you know whether I can bake or not to set such a condition?”
Tae Seo, thinking about Jae In who had been happily handing out Lemon Madeleines to the children in Bali, smiled without a reply and eventually shifted gears. Inside the car that had finally stopped, he turned his body towards Jae In.
“Even if you can’t, will you learn to?”
Faced with a man winking and laughing, Jae In laughed as if she was at a loss for words. Her laughter began to resemble Tae Seo’s, becoming increasingly cheerful. Tae Seo’s laughter was contagious.
As for Lemon Madeleines, fortunately, it was the menu she was most confident in.
Tae Seo looked satisfiedly at Jae In nodding her head.
“Wait. I’ll open the door for you.”
Tae Seo, who quickly got out of the car, walked around to the passenger side and opened the door. When Jae In got out of the car, the entrance to the officetel was right in front of her.
“It’s cold outside, and I can’t even suggest walking a bit because your clothes and shoes might be uncomfortable.”
Tae Seo grumbled as he adjusted the collar of the coat that Jae In was wearing.
“Give me your hand.”
It was the hand he had been holding the whole time at the Art Center. From Jae In’s perspective, there was no reason not to give it to him. However, the atmosphere had been a bit tense earlier. That’s why her hand reaching out to Tae Seo felt a bit awkward.
Unlike the embarrassed Jae In, Tae Seo, with a brazen face, carefully held the small hand reaching out towards him.
Looking at Jae In’s hand as if he was holding something precious, and caressing it gently with his thumb like a precious thing, he slowly bent his waist.
“Ah…”
Tae Seo pressed his lips into the center of Jae In’s palm, took a long breath, and stared at the owner of the hand. With a sigh, Jae In, who had forgotten to breathe, bit her lip tightly.
He who left a kiss on her palm, a kiss that was not long but enough to be electrifying, straightened his waist again.
Then, Jae In had to look up at him for a while, even in high heels. It wasn’t just his height. His broad shoulders were somehow reassuring. Every time they stood this close, she felt the difference in their body sizes.
“What if I say I don’t want to break up.”
“……”
“What would you say if I say I don’t want to send you home?”
“……Don’t play tricks.”
Tae Seo chuckled at the expected response. Playful yet affectionate, his gaze on Jae In changed with a sigh.
“I have something to say to you, Ms. Yoon Jae In.”
At Tae Seo’s deepened gaze and serious face, Jae In swallowed hard.
