He supported all of Da Jeong’s weight as they descended the stairs. The two shoes, of different sizes, slowly touched the ground.
“You can… let me go now.”
“…….”
Tae Sang slowly removed his hand and stood in front of her. His face was still filled with worry, standing close enough to reach out and grasp her arm at any moment.
Da Jeong awkwardly avoided his gaze, shrinking her head. It was difficult to forget the short moment when their bodies were pressed close to each other.
Frustrated, she diverted her gaze while brushing back her hair, catching sight of his empty front seat. Da Jeong cast a perplexed look at him.
“Did your secretary and driver leave?”
“They left while you were asleep.”
“Ah….”
Da Jeong, the main reason for their departure, had no way to hide her remorse.
“They must have been inconvenienced because of me. Please convey my apologies.”
“Sure.”
Finishing his reply, Tae Sang slowly moved towards his car. Opening the passenger side door, he gently looked at Da Jeong. His intention for her to get in was clearly visible.
Though she understood his intent, Da Jeong hesitated to move.
Tae Sang is not just anyone, he’s an executive at my company. Visiting a colleague’s house is a different matter entirely.
Avoiding his gaze with hesitation, Tae Sang let out a rather stern voice.
“Are you still being stubborn with that leg?”
“I’m fine.”
“Ms. Da Jeong.”
Tae Sang moved slowly away from the open car door.
As he walked with the headlights on, a deep darkness fell over his face. It was difficult to discern his expression, which made her more anxious.
She swallowed quietly, and Tae Sang stood still a step ahead. He opened his mouth with a calm expression.
“What are you afraid of?”
“Excuse me? What do you mean….”
“Are you scared of me, or is it something else?”
“….”
At his blunt question, Da Jeong was at a loss for words.
What will he think if he knows what I’m worried about?
Though he may not understand who is worrying about whom, he’d likely make a ridiculous face. Da Jeong barely opened her mouth with a creeping voice.
“Just… I’m worried about rumors. It could be problematic for you.”
“I’ll worry about that. So just accept the favor.”
“….”
“Answer, please.”
When no response came, Tae Sang gently urged Da Jeong. His attitude was caring yet resolute, like leading a scared child into the water.
Da Jeong swallowed dryly once and slowly opened her mouth.
“Ththank you. I’ll take you up on your offer for today.”
“….”
For a moment, the coolness in Tae Sang’s eyes softened. At the same time, a slight smile tugged at his lips, making his sharp face surprisingly soft.
Da Jeong quietly studied his boyish face. It was a smile too precious to be hidden in an expressionless facade.
“Let’s go.”
With a concise statement, a large hand suddenly appeared in front of her. Da Jeong found herself staring at the now familiar hand before gently placing her smaller hand on top of it.
Ding.
With a cheerful arrival sound, the elevator came to a halt. Tae Sang pressed the open button and waited for Da Jeong to exit first.
Once they left the confined space, a bright corridor lit by fluorescent lights appeared. As she cautiously walked, dragging her bag, the smooth marble floors felt cool beneath her heels.
Da Jeong awkwardly stopped next to a large brown door. The entire floor was designed for a single household, so there was no need for his guidance.
Ding Dong.
Tae Sang, who had unlocked the door, again invited Da Jeong in first. As she stepped inside, a soft yellow light gently poured down from above her head.
“Wow……”
A spontaneous exclamation erupted as soon as her sight was clear.
The spacious shoe rack was several times larger than the ones seen in ordinary homes, and the corridor connected to the shoe rack seamlessly extended through the living room to the terrace.
If it hadn’t been pitch black outside, she might have been admiring the view from the shoe rack.
“Please wear these.”
Tae Sang, who had quietly closed the door and entered, pulled out a new pair of slippers from the shoe rack. Da Jeong cautiously inserted her small feet into the neat beige slippers without patterns.
Tae Sang wore the samecolored slippers that were placed on the floor and headed for the living room first.
“Come in.”
“Ex, Excuse me.”
Tae Sang quietly watched as Da Jeong tiptoed in.
No one else but Secretary Kim and the housemaid had ever entered this house. Da Jeong’s figure, stepping into this fortresslike space, looked like a little deer walking into a trap of its own accord.
Da Jeong was looking around the house with her neck stretched out like a turtle. A short exclamation flowed from her mouth after she finished surveying.
“Wow……. The house is really spacious.”
The squareshaped living room was of a size that could only be seen in the lobby of a building.
Da Jeong quickly scanned the large living room with her eyes and awkwardly stopped at one corner.
“It’s a space that’s hardly used.”
“Yes……”
If it was this large, she nodded her head slightly thinking that it could be. Suddenly, Tae Sang abruptly closed the distance between them.

Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
