Woo Yeon chuckled bitterly and then downed her drink. She was feeling tipsy but still okay.
“No.”
Taekyung also emptied his glass in one gulp.
“My guess about your response wasn’t off at all.”
“Are you free, President?”
“…….”
“I heard you were very busy, but somehow, you’re always there wherever I go. It’s like a wave, not receding but constantly coming back.”
“Is that how I am?”
“Yes.”
“That sounds like you’re saying you like me.”
“I do like you.”
Taekyung chuckled. And if he spoke again, she’d probably coldly reject him once more.
“Yoon Woo Yeon, you seem to manage your circle well. Is it because you’re an anchor? Good at words, expressions. Ah, maybe everything is good because it’s all done by Yoon Woo Yeon?”
“Maybe. But, I don’t plan on keeping you in my circle.”
“Heh.”
Predictably, he shook his head as if he knew this would be her response.
Meanwhile, the couple who had gone into the room came out. They seemed to have reached an agreement, as Seo Ji Woo affectionately hooked her arm in Park Min Kwon’s. Woo Yeon averted her gaze to the window.
She wished the night would be all about alcohol.
“May I sit here?”
This was Park Min Kwon’s first statement when they met at the alumni meeting.
He chose a quiet corner seat, away from the noisy atmosphere, but already this was the third interruption. The first two, chattering about various business matters, had tried to gain Taekyung’s interest but soon faded away.
Most people were reluctant to approach Taekyung, known for his cold and indifferent nature. Most hoped he would initiate the conversation. Some even saw him as an unlikeable oddity from the start.
Taekyung didn’t care whether Park Min Kwon was the former or the latter type.
He was a figure not on Taekyung’s list of business contacts to deal with. Though Park might be competent in business, Taekyung had excluded him for various reasons.
He was about to refuse when Park’s next words changed his mind.
“Did you get completely sucked in by Yoon Woo Yeon?”
It was a ridiculous statement. It sounded like he had been completely charmed by Woo Yeon, giving away all sorts of information to her.
Taekyung was aware of the rumors surrounding their recent coverage, but this interpretation was interesting.
Without a word, Taekyung downed his whiskey.
Park took his silence as affirmation.
He then settled next to Taekyung, bringing up Woo Yeon again.
“Yoon anchor is close with my wife. So, I know a bit about Yoon Woo Yeon.”
He was slightly drunk.
Despite knowing that once a word is out, it can’t be taken back, Park’s words were nothing but criticism of Woo Yeon.
Fox-like woman, snake-like woman. Those were the nicer terms. The rest involved harsh swear words and sexual harassment.
Feeling a stiff chill up his neck, Taekyung bit his lip.
So he asked directly.
“Does Yoon anchor have something on you?”
“…….”
Park, who boasted of being a senior inebriated by alcohol, suddenly looked flustered.
“No way.”
“Or were you trying to hit on her and got rejected?”
“What?”
Though he was caught, Park tried to hide it.
Suddenly calling for a subordinate to bring sobering medication, he then focused solely on business talk.
Taekyung accepted Park Min Kwon’s invitation to have another drink at his home, wanting to erase the persistently haunting thoughts of Yoon Woo Yeon from his mind.
He knew.
Her day must have been tough, attending the engagement party of the man she loved, yet pretending to be unaffected.
When Taekyung regained his senses, he found himself near her house.
Encountering Kim Min Jun getting into her car in the parking lot was a mere coincidence.
He wasn’t curious about their conversation, but at that moment, he felt a bitter jealousy.
Wondering if the two were still unable to forget each other, stuck in a foolish, old sentimental relationship.
If that was the case, he planned to withdraw. If Woo Yeon intended to continue a relationship with Kim Min Jun, who was to become another woman’s husband, even through an affair.
If she was that kind of woman.
“A snake-like woman.”
Using Park Min Kwon’s words, he intended to dismiss Yoon Woo Yeon just like that.
However, seeing her with Park Min Kwon’s wife at their house, Taekyung’s thirst surged again.
He observed Woo Yeon closely, silently drinking amidst their conversation.
Yoon Woo Yeon, who wouldn’t even engage with the subtly irritating Park Min Kwon.
And Seo Ji Woo, constantly anxious between the two.
Taekyung wanted to confirm.
Yoon Woo Yeon’s true feelings, who, despite acknowledging her attraction, seemed so eager to push him away.
“Huh.”
As time passed, her increasingly subdued state infuriated Taekyung.
The same Yoon Woo Yeon, who had vehemently refused to drink in front of him, was now downing strong vodka.
“Woo Yeon, are you okay?”
Seo Ji Woo asked worriedly, to which Woo Yeon nonchalantly nodded.
“I’m fine. Not drunk.”
“I’ve never seen you drink this much.”
“Didn’t you tell me to drink until I’m drunk?”
“Well, yes, but… I’m worried. You seem really upset today.”
