Do Hyuk stared at Jae In intently.
It seemed like he had something to say.
“Why are you like that again?”
Startled, Jae In flipped the meat without meeting his gaze, feeling burdened.
While watching the meat sizzle on the grill, she suddenly realized. In this moment, if the team leader had something to say to her…
Ah! Is it really about that?
“Team leader, have more meat! I ate too much without realizing it, being so oblivious.”
Jae In smiled brightly and piled wellcooked meat onto Do Hyuk’s plate.
It was also an effort, shedding 100% genuine tears, to put aside misunderstandings about Gyumin.
However, Do Hyuk only raised one eyebrow and didn’t touch the meat.
Isn’t this it?
Our team leader, the misunderstanding still hasn’t been cleared.
Jae In still had a long way to go.
“Team leader, I apologize! I’ll go in first.”
When the assistant driver arrived, Manager Park, whose face was flushed from drinking, bowed his head clumsily.
It was past 11 p.m.
It was only after Jihoon managed to separate Manager Park, who insisted on going to a karaoke for the third round, clinging and begging, that they finally left.
“Everyone, be careful going in. See you tomorrow.”
In the second pub they visited, Do Hyuk didn’t say a word, his face uncomfortable.
Thanks to that, Jae In felt like she was sitting on pins and needles the whole time.
She couldn’t even eat properly, and the little she managed to eat felt like a burden.
Whenever she talked to Gyumin, Do Hyuk would stare at her intensely, as if guarding against any secrets slipping out.
“Of all things, Gyumin had to mention the joke. No wonder, even though we’ve never had a meal together before, why did he actively participate in this company dinner?”
It was clear that he had followed to keep an eye on Jae In, who was going alone.
“Don’t you trust me? I’ve said it many times that I’m not a spy. Even if I feel wronged, I’ll make sure the project succeeds and say goodbye to Cha Do Hyuk in style!”
Jae In clenched her fist tightly against Do Hyuk’s exposed back, which covered her path.
She contained her frustration of not being able to eat comfortably, even with her favorite meat right in front of her.
“Team leader, I think I’m a little drunk. Could you give me a ride home?”
Na Hee, standing next to Do Hyuk, grabbed his arm as if she could collapse at any moment.
Her disheveled voice. A mischievous smile slanted at a 45degree angle. Even a slightly unsteady gesture.
In Na Hee’s actions, which encompassed all three elements, there was a strong determination to somehow ride in Do Hyuk’s car.
You really made up your mind, Kang Na Hee.
Jae In quietly bit her tongue.
Just as she was curious about how Do Hyuk would react,
Do Hyuk suddenly turned his head and looked at Jae In over his shoulder, his voice trailing off.
“It’s inconvenient….”
Ah, it’s because we live in the same house that he’s concerned.
Jae In smiled brightly and pushed Do Hyuk’s back.
“Team leader, I’ll go on my own, so don’t worry and please take Assistant Kang.”
“Let’s go, team leader.”
Na Hee glanced at Jae In and urged Do Hyuk with her eyes.
Then, from somewhere, a voice desperately calling for Na Hee could be heard.
“Assistant Kang, it’s in the direction of our house! I’ll drop you off on the way, get in!”
Manager Park, who got into the car, waved happily to Na Hee.
“Oh no! I’ll go with the team leader.”
Even if you sprinkle salt on a cooked meal, it’s still oily soup.
Na Hee forced a smile and rejected Manager Park’s offer.
However, once caught in the radar net of Oh Jirafer Manager Park, it was almost impossible to escape easily.
“It’s okay, it’s okay! Don’t apologize and get in quickly!”
“It’s really okay….”
“Oh, Assistant Driver is waiting. It’s okay, get in quickly!”
“Before Assistant Kang gets on, Manager Park won’t start. Please get in!”
Even Jihoon, who was already in the car because he lived in the same neighborhood as Manager Park, chimed in.
There was no excuse to refuse the situation.
In the end, Na Hee, her mouth blabbering due to unnecessary consideration, left with Manager Park as if being dragged to the slaughterhouse.
As the bustling crowd left, Gyumin, who had been quietly standing next to Jae In the whole time, spoke up.
“Jae In, where’s your house? I’m taking a taxi, so I’ll drop you off.”
“Ah, no! Your house is in Mokdong. Our house is in the opposite direction, it’s too far.”
“Still, I’m worried, so I….”
“It’s okay, I’ll take a taxi. See you tomorrow.”
“Don’t say that….”
At that moment, Yeonji chimed in, smiling brightly between the two.
“Manager Han, I live in Mokdong too. Let’s go together.”
“Ah, yes. Sure, then.”
Gyumin nodded reluctantly, unable to refuse.
“Thank you! Then, Supervisor Seo, if you take responsibility for the team leader.”
Yeonji winked at Jae In.
In that moment, Jae In realized.
Ah, that’s what it was?
It seemed that Yeonji had feelings for Gyumin.
I saw her for the first time today, but she’s really quick.
With that, only Do Hyuk and Jae In were left alone in an awkward atmosphere.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
Short intro:

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
