Upon hearing Yerin’s words, Lee Hyun tapped the table with his long fingers.
Eventually, his lips slowly parted.
“I didn’t expect Han Yerin to talk like that, so it’s quite surprising.”
“Mostly, we’ll be going on dates after work. If there’s traffic or something, the time spent idling on the road will be longer.”
Lee Hyun nodded as if to say, “Go on, try it more.”
“Not knowing that I’ve used up my time moving around, saying goodbye to you and coming home would be a bit strange… So, I might not feel comfortable.”
Lee Hyun tilted his head slightly, absorbing Yerin’s explanation of why she made this decision.
“I’m curious about why Han Yerin suddenly became so proactive.”
Yerin smiled faintly, pulling up the corners of her lips.
“Thanks to your consideration, I met my mom after a long time. Maybe I thought I might not see her again until she passes away.”
Still overwhelmed by the unexpected gift thanks to Lee Hyun, Yerin was still deeply moved.
“It’s all thanks to you, Lee Hyun. So, I’ll do my best to help.”
Yerin’s face, expressing determination, was captured by Lee Hyun’s eyes.
“Really?”
“Yes, I’ll work hard at every moment.”
Receiving an unexpected gift, Lee Hyun was also in a similar situation.
He didn’t intentionally arrange for Changsuk and Yerin to meet because he wanted something.
He just thought it was unreasonable for a daughter not to see her parents and left it as it naturally should be.
Seeing how much Yerin loved it, Lee Hyun also felt a boost in his mood.
“Yes, I look forward to how passionately Han Yerin will approach our dates in the future.”
While the two were negotiating the contract inside.
A rustling sound could be heard from outside.
Lee Hyun’s eyes suddenly sharpened.
When he returned together today, he found it strange that the bathroom light was on. The doubt still lingered in his mind.
Fortunately, Yerin seemed not to have heard the noise outside and was smiling while chatting.
Suppressing the growing anxiety, Lee Hyun asked Yerin.
“Han Yerin, when is the contract period for this house?”
“There’s still some time left. Why do you ask?”
“There’s quite a distance from the company, so what’s the reason for choosing this house?”
To Lee Hyun’s eyes, this house had the worst conditions in many ways.
It had been quite a distance from the company, and there were not many streetlights in the neighborhood, and the safety was not that great.
Especially the entrance door, which seemed so weak that it could break just by pulling it hard, did not appeal to him.
However, the interior of the house was not spacious and comfortable at all.
It was even smaller than his own living room. So, he couldn’t just leave Yerin staying in a place like this.
“There was no other house within the budget.”
After giving that answer, Yerin made a face, wondering, ‘The reason for asking about the house…’
Then, Yerin quickly continued speaking, as if she had read Hyun’s mind.
“Mr. Lee Hyun, I’m really satisfied with this house.”
As if she had received everything through this contract, Yerin talked like a rapper, leaving Hyun with no room to respond.
“So, I don’t want anything else from Mr. Lee Hyun.”
“You can take a breath and speak.”
“Oh, my story ends here.”
Yerin belatedly smiled awkwardly and brushed the fallen hair behind her ear.
Hyun, finding it amusing, let out a short laugh.
“Understood. I won’t show any undue favoritism.”
“Really?”
Hyun nodded once, and only then did Yerin smile brightly.
“I want to approach this relationship without any burden.”
After finalizing the details of the contract, Hyun reluctantly stood up from his seat.
“Let’s meet at the company tomorrow. Rest quickly; you must be tired.”
Trying to stop Yerin, who was going down to see him off, Hyun went up to the rooftop of the rooftop room.
He looked around, but no one was in sight.
It might be his sensitivity.
As Yerin mentioned, maybe she forgot to turn off the bathroom light when she commuted today. The sound he heard earlier during the conversation might have been the wind causing something to rustle.
However, the instinctive discomfort couldn’t be dismissed.
Descending to his car parked below, Hyun started the engine.
About to start, he thought of something and touched the black box several times.
“If someone was here, it would have been recorded.”
Hyun’s eyes, who was slowly rewinding and watching the recorded video on the black box, suddenly widened as he discovered something.
Then, he immediately made a call to someone.

It was early morning, but the Jinheonjae was filled with cheerful laughter.
At the table where Chairman Cha, Mrs. Yoon, Hyun, and his brother Suhyun sat, neatly arranged dishes filled the table.
“Everyone, I hope you’ve cleared your schedules for this weekend.”
In response to Chairman Cha’s words, Mrs. Yoon asked with curiosity.
“Where are we all going together as a family?”
“The daughter of Congressman Kwak is holding a gayageum solo concert.”
“Oh, really? Is she quite skilled?”
An Indifferent Woman is the One Men Desire the Most
One-line summary: The female lead is actually cold-hearted and extremely rational. She has stage-by-stage relationships and won’t two-time, but there will always be someone who secretly likes her.
This novel has the following triggers, so if you’re sensitive to these, please don’t read:
1. The female lead has had many relationships, but she treated each one seriously and broke up properly.
It’s just that the men unilaterally pestered her incessantly. For the female lead, when she doesn’t like someone anymore, she simply doesn’t like them.
(This applies to her relationships with Male Lead 1, 2, 3, and 4 as well, but she’s loyal in each 1-on-1 relationship!)
2. In this novel, Male Lead 2 and the female lead kiss in a car, and Male Lead 1 sees it and beats up Male Lead 2.
The female lead calls the police and sends both Male Lead 1 and 2 to the police station! Male Lead 1 begs the female lead not to break up with him.
3. Male Lead 1 has a gentle appearance but an obsessive personality.
