Conscious. Of course, she couldn’t help but be.
Because she would never get to see such a perfect body in her life, not before and not even before death.
“To think there’s a person around me who says they can only sleep naked.”
But she couldn’t blame Do Jun either. After all, if you sleep fully clothed, you often get sleep paralysis, so what can you do?
“Sigh.”
Should she rather stay up all night in her own room?
Just when Tae Yeon was thinking about this, there came a knock on the door.
“Miss Jin Tae Yeon, when will you go to sleep?”
It seemed Do Jun had come personally to get her.
She was grateful.
As Tae Yeon cracked open the door, Do Jun, as promised, was standing outside the door in a robe.
The problem was that he had merely thrown it on. He hadn’t properly tied it with a belt, so his chest was clearly visible.
Tae Yeon kept sneaking peeks at Do Jun’s exposed chest.
Perhaps because his body was so good, he seemed to somewhat enjoy exposing himself.
Well. With a body like a sculpture, you’d want to show it off.
Feeling Tae Yeon’s gaze fixed on his body, Do Jun slightly bent his knee and met her eyes.
The two people’s gazes intertwined in the air and Tae Yeon hastily avoided his eyes.
“Do Jun, you should go to sleep first. I’ll be right there.”
However, Do Jun just stood still without moving.
“Do you have something else to say?”
“Miss Jin Tae Yeon, you’re not planning on sleeping in this room tonight, are you?”
“Huh?”
Tae Yeon awkwardly pulled up the corners of her mouth and laughed. Do Jun, as if he had anticipated this, extended his hand to her as he approached.
“Chairman Cha had three requests for me when he came to Korea.”
“……”
“No matter what, don’t sleep out. And no matter how much work there is, or if we fight, don’t sleep separately from Miss Jin Tae Yeon.”
“Yes……”
Do Jun closed his mouth about the last thing Chairman Cha had asked for.
She was curious, but Tae Yeon didn’t ask. If she asked, there was a high probability that she would hear another story that would be hard to bear from his mouth.
Helplessly, Tae Yeon turned off the light in her room and stepped out into the hallway. Only then did Do Jun, seemingly satisfied, follow her.
((()))((()))((()))
Lying on the spacious bed, Tae Yeon moved her body even more to the edge of the bed than usual.
As soon as he turned off the stand light, Do Jun, as if he had been waiting, removed his gown and dropped it to the floor.
Even though she couldn’t see, the sound of the robe sliding was strangely more stimulating. Tae Yeon closed her eyes tightly.
‘It’s just one of the common sleep habits.’
Images of Do Jun’s solid upper body kept flickering in front of her closed eyes.
‘It’s just a common body……’
Thinking that was no use. His muscles were too high quality to be dismissed as common.
Turning her back to Do Jun, Tae Yeon let out a small sigh. The fact that he was right next to her was particularly noticeable tonight.
Tae Yeon was not a person who had sleep habits. She would wake up just where she lay down.
Tae Yeon muttered in a small voice to Do Jun, who was behind her.
“Do Jun, it’s fortunate, isn’t it?”
“What do you mean?”
“Because I’m a woman who doesn’t have any sleep habits.”
There was no immediate reply from Do Jun.
Had he already fallen asleep?
Tae Yeon turned her body and looked at Do Jun. There was a broad smile on his face.
Did what I say amuse you? What? Which part?
Tae Yeon called out to Do Jun as if she was puzzled.
“Do Junssi?”
“Ah. I was momentarily lost in thought. What did you say, Jin Tae Yeonssi?”
“It’s not important. You should go to sleep now.”
Tae Yeon turned her body and laid down, positioning herself precisely at the edge of the bed.
She could hear Do Jun’s soft, low voice from behind her.
“Jin Tae Yeonssi, what would you do if you fall off the bed while sleeping like that?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. I’ll sleep and wake up just as I am now.”
“You’re too close to the edge of the bed. You can move a little closer to me.”
“No.”
Tae Yeon drew a firm line.
“It’s okay.”
“Even if there’s a thud from you falling off, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear it.”
“There won’t be any such incident.”
“Okay. I know Jin Tae Yeonssi is a very wellbehaved sleeper. I’ll sleep comfortably.”
Their conversation ended, and a peaceful silence filled the bedroom. Then Do Jun broke the quiet.
“Jin Tae Yeonssi, I don’t have any sleep habits either. As long as I don’t have nightmares.”
“Yes.”
“So, if I happen to hold you tightly in my sleep.”
“…..”
“Or if I end up sleeping holding you in my arms, you don’t have to worry about it.”
“…..Yes, I understand, so go to sleep now.”
Do Jun might have said it to reassure Tae Yeon, but after hearing that, she became even more aware of him.
Usually, at this late hour, she would fall asleep quickly, but today, for some reason, her mind was clear.
Thinking that the two cups of coffee she drank in the afternoon might be the cause, Tae Yeon closed her eyes again tightly.
While making a promise to herself not to drink coffee at the office tomorrow.
