On her way to the meeting place, Line found herself more tense than usual, signaling that she now had something to hope for. Despite trying to control her mind with deep breaths, she couldn’t easily calm herself.
“Hey, miss, should I drop you off here?”
Awakened by the taxi driver’s question, Line realized she was close to her destination. She was glad she hadn’t taken the subway or bus, almost missing her stop.
“Ah, yes. Thank you.”
Walking towards the towering building with a thoughtful expression, Line stopped in front of the large revolving door and lowered her head. Always knowing she had to hold her head high despite feeling small, today she felt even smaller.
“Aren’t you going inside? The appointment time is almost up.”
Hearing the deep, strong voice, Line was startled and lifted her head. Through the glass of the revolving door, she saw Taesung Group’s Director Na Song Kang standing behind her.
Therefore, she didn’t turn around. Fearing he might see her vulnerability, that she might have started expecting something from him…
Even though Line tried to hide it, Song Kang could see it. He had overlooked the possibility of her developing any desire, but at least he could tell her spirit was dampened.
“Once you cross this door, there’s a different world.”
His robust figure overshadowed her completely.
For Line, who had always been alone, having someone solidly behind her was a first, and she couldn’t define the emotions flooding her.
His meaningful words gave strength to Line’s steps. She began to walk, and Song Kang followed her pace.
As they crossed the revolving door, Song Kang led the way.
“Come this way.”
He headed towards the VIP elevator. It was unfamiliar to Line, but following him felt neither repulsive nor frightening.
The elevator, as if waiting for them, stayed on the ground floor. Song Kang stepped in first.
Line followed him into the elevator. It was unusual for her to follow someone, but perhaps due to her condition, it didn’t feel bad.
Song Kang pressed the button for the top floor, a VIP section with no floor number. As the elevator doors closed, a quiet stillness filled the space just for them.
Their reflections in the elevator door showed them looking at each other, and Line quickly looked away, trying to avoid eye contact.
Every time Line behaved like this, Song Kang felt an urge to smile. He struggled to hold back his smile.
Thanks to her avoidance, he could observe her more closely. Prosecutor Jin Line seemed to epitomize the phrase ‘strong outside, soft inside.’
As Line looked away, their eyes met in the reflection. Song Kang didn’t avoid her gaze, and Line tried not to show her discomfort.
The elevator reached the top floor with a ding, and Line hastily tried to exit, bowing her head. Song Kang caught her left wrist as she almost collided with the door.
Startled, Line turned back, raising her right hand unintentionally, not to hit him, but the motion caught his attention.
“The door hasn’t opened yet.”
Only then did the door open behind her.
“Okay, let go.”
Upon her request, Song Kang released her wrist, causing her to stumble backward. He quickly caught her, a move that seemed calculated.
Tensing up her body like that, it was natural for Line to fall backwards when Song Kang let go of her hand.
With the elevator doors closing again, and their bodies closely pressed against each other, Line held her breath.
Song Kang, noticing Line’s ears turning red, struggled to suppress a smile, especially with an important negotiation ahead. He resisted laughing once more.
“Should I let go?”
This time, Song Kang asked, but Line didn’t hear him. She turned her head away without responding.
Song Kang firmly helped her stand upright and pressed the button to open the elevator door, allowing her a chance to escape the situation.
Line quickly exited the elevator and took a deep breath, relieved.
Unsure of where exactly she was heading, Line just followed her instincts, and Song Kang watched her walk away, finally allowing himself a smile.
“Prosecutor Jin Line, this way.”
At his voice, Line halted her steps and turned back. Had he been watching her, it would have been quite embarrassing, but instead, he was heading towards a reserved business room.
Line followed him, maintaining a suitable distance. It seemed their fate was to be together in that room, after all…
Upon arrival, an attendant opened the door and politely set a sealed contract on the table before leaving.
Line hesitated to sit down, indicating the weight of today’s contract for her as well.
Song Kang, observing her pause, silently offered her a seat. Line looked straight ahead, made her way to her chair, and sat down. Song Kang followed suit.
“I want to clarify something in advance. One way to help Prosecutor Jin Line is through legal representation in her reinstatement lawsuit. Attorney Cha Haein will handle it. If you find someone more skilled, feel free to choose them.”

Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
