“I was just trying to help Secretary Han with pure intentions.”
“Yes, I know.”
If anything, it was Yerin who had impure thoughts.
Turning swiftly, Yerin dropped two green tea bags into prepared cups, pouring hot water into them before moving to the table.
She took a sip of the tea, found it too hot, and quickly set it down.
“Are you okay?”
“Ah. Yes, it’s just really hot, so please drink slowly, Director.”
“Does that mean you want me to stay here longer?”
“…….”
“Just kidding, just kidding.”

Confused by Ihyeon’s serious-sounding jokes, Yerin struggled to keep her composure. It wasn’t really what he said; it was her acute awareness of him.
The tea was indeed hot, causing her cheeks to redden again.
And the brief touch of Ihyeon’s firm body continued to unsettle her.
Ihyeon broke the taut atmosphere by asking,
“It’s hard to have a cup of tea at Secretary Han’s place, isn’t it?”
“It seems so. Sorry, I don’t usually have guests, so I put the tea bags in a high place.”
Hearing this, Ihyeon’s mouth curved into a smile.
“Has your ex-boyfriend never been here?”
“Yes, of course.”
Yerin set down her tea cup, feeling compelled to clarify.

“How could I bring a man home? I’m not that kind of woman.”
Once again, Ihyeon’s mouth twitched involuntarily.
“So, following Secretary Han’s logic, I’m the first man to come here?”
“Ah….”
Realizing what she had implied, Yerin quickly corrected herself.
“Not as a male guest. Strictly speaking, I helped a superior in a difficult situation.”
“So, I’m the first male superior to visit here?”
Ihyeon seemed to enjoy getting clear confirmations.
Having observed him for a while, Yerin knew he preferred facts and gave a straightforward answer to his probing question.
“If we’re being precise, that’s correct.”
“But is it okay to bring a male superior to your house?”

“Uh?”
Ihyeon set down his green tea cup and leaned forward.
“Aren’t you being too defenseless, Secretary Han?”
The intensity in Ihyeon’s eyes as he spoke was almost overwhelming.
Yerin managed to suppress her trembling voice and continued.
“Thinking about it now, it seems I was. You rushed me before I could make a proper decision, Director.”
Watching Yerin speak her mind, Ihyeon maintained his smile.
“Let’s make me an exception.”
“Why?”
“Why, you ask?”

Ihyeon propped his chin with one hand.
“And we’re about to start dating.”
“…….”
“So categorizing me just as a male superior might be a bit ambiguous, don’t you think?”
“I haven’t made my decision yet.”
“Oh, is that so.”
Ihyeon languidly curled his lips upward.
“Then, Secretary Han, shall we finish the conversation we were having?”
Yerin, having talked at length with Ihyeon, couldn’t remember which conversation needed a conclusion.
And even if she did, the conclusions always tended to flow the way Ihyeon wanted.

“So, I’m the first man to come to this house?”
“Yes.”
“I hope it stays that way.”
The seriousness in Ihyeon’s gaze almost made her nod in agreement.
Barely catching herself, Yerin asked,
“Why?”
“Just because.”
Ihyeon stood up and came closer to Yerin.
She had to tilt her head back quite a bit to meet his gaze.
As if to consider her, Ihyeon bent slightly at the waist.

No, it wasn’t out of consideration. His bending down brought them even closer together.
Yerin involuntarily clutched the hem of her dress and held her breath.
“It’s strange. I just want to be all of Secretary Han’s firsts.”
His words were laden with potential misunderstanding.
Yet Ihyeon continued, unshaken.
“If Secretary Han wishes, I will give her my firsts too.”
“…….”
“Is this what it feels like to be in a relationship?”
He spoke as if they were truly in a relationship.
“I don’t know much about it.”

Inexplicably, Ihyeon leaned in closer until there were barely 10 centimeters between them.
“So, Secretary Han, when will you answer?”
Just as Ihyeon’s breath was about to touch Yerin’s face,
Bang, bang, bang!
Someone pounded on Yerin’s door, as if they were about to break it down.
