In the end, Dojin received a strong blow to the back of his neck from Jua. Although he didn’t tell everything to Dojin, Jua added more explanations after Gitaeh sighed in response to Dojin’s somewhat bewildered expression.
“I’ve known Yoon Gaeul since she was young. It’s been 10 years now.”
“…10 years?”
“If we knew each other even before signing the gallery contract, that should explain it.”
“How am I supposed to believe just your words…”
In a slightly awkward atmosphere, Jua once again intervened.
“Oppa, let Gaeul sleep comfortably, stop bothering the person who’s leaving. Anyway, we don’t even know Gaeul’s home. We can’t even take her there…”
Jua, who was continuing the conversation with a somewhat bitter tone, poured a drink into Dojin’s empty glass. First, it was necessary to calm down Dojin, who was causing a scene.
“So, Oppa, stop it and sit down! Why are you like this today?”
“…….”
“Ah, I’m really embarrassed.”
Whether they were having a real fight or not, the customers inside the store were now glancing at the table where Jua and Dojin were sitting.
Gitaeh, who had returned with Gaeul in his arms, placed her in the passenger seat and took the driver’s seat.
As he was about to fasten the seatbelt for the already sleeping person, he suddenly looked up at Gaeul’s face, visible between her sleeping hair.
Her peacefully sleeping face was truly pale and soft.
“I tried to catch her and ask, but she slipped away like this.”
Maybe because of that, or perhaps it was just a coincidence that there was a drinking session, the situation had turned out like this.
He had come to catch someone and had ended up making the person unresponsive.
Trying to catch her since the morning, he only ended up in an unsatisfactory argument. Once again, Gitaeh, who came to Dojin’s mind, finished fastening the seatbelt for Gaeul and turned the steering wheel, cursing while ignoring Dojin’s complaints.
Gitaeh’s car quickly left the road.
The sedan, which arrived quickly, stopped in front of the annex. Watching Gaeul, who was sleeping during the entire ride, Gitaeh, who had raised the corner of his mouth for a moment, turned off the ignition.
He knew it was impolite at midnight, but he didn’t have another option as he was planning to wake up her mother who was sleeping in the annex.
When Gitaeh, who had turned off the ignition, was about to get out of the car to ask someone to open the annex door, Gaeul woke up with a mumbled sound.
“Umm…”
Turning around, Gaeul, who was muttering something, opened her eyes. Gitaeh, who was about to get out of the car, turned his head towards the awakened Gaeul.
The eyes that rolled around for a moment, waking up, eventually met Gitaeh’s next to her.
As if there were words to say about yesterday’s kiss, Gitaeh’s eyebrows rose once and then fell.
Gaeul’s pupils, which shook finely after discovering Gitaeh, trembled.
When boldly blocking her, it was scary. Looking at Gaeul, who was bravely standing despite her embarrassment, Jua patted her strongly.
“Ah, because he’s the CEO! Since Gaeul doesn’t even know her way home, it’s right to ask someone we know. And…”
Hearing Jua’s words, which seemed a bit embarrassing in front of the parties involved, Gitaeh cut in.
“It’s more appropriate for me to take her, considering I don’t even know her home.”
“No, wait!”
“Ah, Oppa!”
In the end, Dojin received a strong blow to the back of his neck from Jua. Although he didn’t tell everything to Dojin, Jua added more explanations after Gitaeh sighed in response to Dojin’s somewhat bewildered expression.
“I’ve known Yoon Gaeul since she was young. It’s been 10 years now.”
“…10 years?”
“If we knew each other even before signing the gallery contract, that should explain it.”
“How am I supposed to believe just your words…”
In a slightly awkward atmosphere, Jua once again intervened.
“Oppa, let Gaeul sleep comfortably, stop bothering the person who’s leaving. Anyway, we don’t even know Gaeul’s home. We can’t even take her there…”
At Gaeul’s words, irritation surged. Gitaeh’s voice immediately lowered even more.
“Was it just a mistake?”
“…….”
“Are you the type to just do things on a whim? Quite impulsive.”
“…I don’t really know either.”
Her words were somewhat rough.
At that moment, Gaeul muttered to herself.
“I used to get nervous and manage to control myself when I saw the CEO before. But that day, why couldn’t I endure it…”
“…What?”
Her confusion, expressing her honest feelings about whether she was properly drunk or not, gradually calmed Gitaeh’s sharp nerves.
Was she aware of what she was saying with the person right there?
Gitaeh leaned his arm on the front passenger seat and looked down at Gaeul. She seemed to be murmuring something to herself that was not meant for him. Gaeul, who was expressing her confusion, looked truly perplexed.
Even though her honest answers were somewhat cute.
While Gitaeh had lived as he pleased so far, there were rules he had set for himself. He had never acted impulsively or spontaneously, so why did things always go awry when it involved Yoon Gaeul?
He hadn’t thought about it. Today, he just wanted to catch Gaeul and have a calm conversation.
“It’s all because of the painting…”
Gitaeh’s eyes, which had sunk low without him realizing it, met Gaeul’s lips, which were cute as they muttered something. His gaze blatantly swept over Gaeul’s lips. Gaeul’s lips, which had turned red after being continuously bitten, looked pleasingly swollen.
Approaching closely, Gitaeh unfastened Gaeul’s seatbelt. As the belt holding her body loosened, Gaeul’s body became more liberated and drew closer as Gitaeh approached.
Looking down at Gaeul in this way, Gitaeh whispered secretly.
“Well, shall we check?”
“Check? How?”
Even though her vision twisted, Gaeul met his gaze while wiping her eyes. Meeting a transparent gaze filled with confusion sparked an inexplicable thirst once again. Gaeul, whose breath touched her ear, looked at Gitaeh with confusion as he raised his head.
His gaze that gradually descended to her lips and the eyes that met, leaving about a fist’s distance. What he was saying was quite explicitly revealed. The breath that had already approached tickled her lips. As Gaeul, who had been close enough, looked at him with confusion, Gitaeh raised his head again.
He subtly whispered, “Shall we try again? To see if your feelings were temporary or not.”

After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
