While giving various instructions regarding Jae In, Do Hyuk didn’t reveal the exact reasons.
He only mentioned that it was because of Jae In’s personal circumstances and a project that required the house to be empty.
Do Hyuk knew that Sung Joon wouldn’t simply believe it.
Putting his curiosity aside, Sung Joon tidied up his place.
“Well, then, my lord, I’ll go to the headquarters now.”
As Sung Joon bowed his head in a customary manner and was about to leave, he turned back and added a comment.
“Oh, and if you ever need my help, feel free to ask anytime, whether it’s workrelated or anything else.”
Relationship advice is always welcome.
Sung Joon looked at Do Hyuk with a kind gaze, as if he were looking at a lost lamb.
Do Hyuk’s deep and intense pupils flickered slightly.

“Yes, of course.”
“Well then, I’ll take my leave now.”
“Oh, Director Kim…”
As Sung Joon was about to take a step, a voice, tinged with nervousness, grabbed hold of his ankle.
“…Can I ask you something?”
“Of course.”
A gentle smile appeared on Sung Joon’s lips, as if he had been waiting for it.
That night, as soon as Do Hyuk entered the house, he went straight to Jae In, who was sitting on the sofa.
Then he placed two large shopping bags on the table.
“Seo Jae In, take responsibility.”

“What is this?”
Seeing Do Hyuk’s tired expression and his gesture to look inside, Jae In was curious about what was inside the shopping bags. She peeked inside and was surprised.
“What on earth is this?”
The shopping bags were filled with various dog treats, shampoos, accessories, and other pet supplies.
Do Hyuk, who had taken off his suit and sat down next to Jae In, seemed quite frustrated and roughly loosened his tie.
“Kang Daeri brought them today.”
“Why did she bring so many?”
As expected, Kang Na Hee.
She always makes a fuss no matter what she does.
“What is this?”

A dog collar with the name tag “Happy” caught her eye.
“You kept asking me about the name.”
“So, the name I chose is ‘Happy’? Team Leader, your taste is more traditional than I thought.”
When Jae In chuckled, Do Hyuk’s face instantly turned red.
“Suddenly asking me… and what did you say about the gender?”
“Male.”
“What’s the breed?”
“Poodle.”
Ha ha ha.
Jae In couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

She couldn’t stop laughing, imagining Do Hyuk sweating over a nonexistent puppy.
Kang Na Hee’s efforts to intertwine the team leader and the puppy were also tearinducing.
Our Kang Daeri is dreaming an impossible dream.
“I don’t know! Seo Jae In said she wants to live with a puppy, so handle it yourself!”
Do Hyuk, whose temper flared up due to Jae In’s laughter, raised his voice.
In response, Jae In scoffed and rolled her eyes.
Where are you passing the responsibility to?
Come to think of it, I missed the timing to discuss this aspect.
“Well, it’s because the team leader suddenly said we should live together. Why on earth did you say that?”
Do Hyuk, who had returned to his calm demeanor, raised one corner of his mouth and spoke.

“Because we’ll be living together. I can’t lie because I’m different from who I usually am.”
“Who said anything about lying! It was almost exposed that we’re living together because of the team leader.”
“Yeah, if it had been exposed, everyone would have known that we’re living together.”
“It would have caused a commotion.”
“Yeah, it would have.”
“Is it just a commotion? So, promise me that you won’t mention that we’ll be living together from now on.”
“…”
Instead of answering, Do Hyuk smirked as he glanced at the sulking Jae In.
What’s this?
Why does it feel like I’ve made a big mistake?

A sinister premonition crept in slowly.
“Team leader, the promise… you’ll keep it, right?”
Jae In asked with a worried expression, and finally Do Hyuk nodded.
“Of course.”
Jae In let out a sigh of relief.
“But it seems like Kang Daeri has a lot of interest in the team leader.”
Jae In rummaged through a tremendous amount of dog supplies and stuck out her tongue.
Do Hyuk casually replied, “I’m not interested.”
“Why? Kang Daeri is such a beauty.”
Well, she’s a bit annoying.

“Not really my type.”
What’s up, Kang Na Hee?
I’m sorry for not protecting you.
By the way, despite favoring Kang Daeri all this time, she wasn’t actually your preference, right?
“Oh, right. The team leader said she likes a woman who eats well while crying bravely.”
Thinking about it again, preferences, huh?
“Yeah, I remember it well. I thought I had a bad memory, but I remember more than 50 phone numbers.”
“Oh, really? I’ll see if your memory is really that good from now on.”
Jae In was taken aback.
Do Hyuk had a subtle smile on his lips.

He knew that he always follows through with what he says.
She’s a busy person, why would she bother remembering everything.
But she’s not someone who would do nothing even if you told her not to.
Do as you please, Team Leader.
“Yes, please do.”
“Do you remember my number?”
She was a little taken aback by the unexpected question.
“No. It’s on my cell phone…”
“Remember it.”
In response to Do Hyuk’s firm instruction, Jae In reflexively answered.

“Yes, I understand!”
She felt a bit unfair about her hasty response.
No, in this era of the benefits of civilization, why should I bother remembering the company team leader’s number?
It’s just useless TMI once I quit the company.
Jae In asked Do Hyuk in a challenging tone.
“By the way, do you remember my number, Team Leader?”
“0109xxx8xxx.”
“Oh, yes. I will memorize the team leader’s number right away.”
What’s so difficult about that?
That night, Jae In called Yura to handle Kang Na Hee’s gift.

“Yura, I have good news.”
What is it?
“This sister prepared a gift package for Hobangi.”
Hobangi is the name of Yura’s dog that she has been raising for 8 years.
He is a pure white Maltese and has a chic personality that resembles his owner. He never gives his paw to anyone except his owner and behaves aloofly.
A gift? What’s going on? She never even bought a single dog treat. Where did it come from?
“Yeah, someone gave it to her.”
Who?
“There’s this person who loves animals and just gives things away. Anyway, you’ll be surprised when you see it. The products are all imported brands, and the snacks are all organic and homemade.”
Really? Our Hobangi will be living it up after a long time. Thank you, my friend!

“It’s heavy, so make sure to bring your car tomorrow.”
Is it that heavy? Then I’ll just come to your house.
“Yeah, that would be great… Oh, no! Absolutely do not come!”
Jae In was taken aback and tried to stop Yura.
What’s the matter? You said it would be nice if I came to your house another time. It’ll be heavy if I have to bring it.
“No, it’s, it’s fine. I’m currently working out because my arm strength is lacking.”
Yura noticed Jae In’s confusion and spoke with a suspicious tone.
There’s something strange about you… since last time.
“What’s so strange? You know, I’m always a steady person like a tall pine tree. Hahaha.”
Choi Yura, let’s just move on. Please!

Hmm. That’s it then. Oh, are you living well with that man?
“What are you talking about! Who, who said I’m living with a man!”
Jae In shouted angrily, feeling a sudden pain in her foot.
Yura’s chic voice continued.
It’s about Kang Na Hee. Why is Seo Jae In acting so jumpy?
“……!”
As if it’s her own business.
