And what exactly does he mean by making it comfortable?

“Even so……. How did you move me?”
“You must have been very tired, enough to not know even if I carried you. I had already checked in. The others went up first.”
Nok Hyun had a knack for saying notsosimple things simply.

Tae In, who was about to speak, closed her mouth. She realized that Nok Hyun was staring at her. To be precise, her exposed upper body.

Tae In pulled the blanket to cover her body.

“You didn’t move me like this, did you?”
“I’m not insane. I undressed you after we got here.”
“Here? After moving me with my clothes on, you deliberately undressed me?”
“……I thought you were awake.”
Nok Hyun mumbled in an uncharacteristically small voice.

He thought she was awake and was about to do something.

He was a man whose desires never seemed to cool. Tae In sighed.

“Can you give me my clothes?”
At Tae In’s words, Nok Hyun got up and came closer to her.

“You’re going to take them off anyway, why?”
With that, he grinned and kissed Tae In’s cheek.

“Can’t I at least have a bathrobe? I want to shower.”
Nok Hyun tilted his head. He seemed to question why she needed a robe if she was just going to bathe anyway.

What happened last night was one thing, facing each other in broad daylight was another.

“Do you want me to bathe you?”
“I respectfully decline!”
Tae In hid under the covers in horror. But Nok Hyun casually lifted the blanket and pulled out her face.

“I’ll just take you there then.”
Nok Hyun put his hands under Tae In’s legs and lifted her.

Unlike Tae In, who was frantically covering her body now exposed in an instant, Nok Hyun was calm.

He gently placed Tae In into the bathtub.

At the perfect warm temperature, Tae In’s eyes widened.

Embarrassed by her body visible through the clear water, she was still shriveling up when Nok Hyun dropped a small ball into the water.

The small ball, a mix of pink and purple, rolled around in the water, creating a peculiar color.

Her body, which had felt sore as if hit, relaxed tiredly.

“Play with it.”
He threw a duck toy into the bathtub from somewhere, and the duck floated around on the water.

“Do you think I’m a child or something?”
Instead of responding to Tae In’s sullen words, Nok Hyun sat on the edge of the tub and kissed her forehead.

“I love you.”
“…Without any warning, like this?”
“You.”
“I’ll tell you later.”
As Tae In looked away, Nok Hyun reached out and stroked her cheek, then down to her neck, gradually moving his hand down to her collarbone.

Tae In covered her body with her hand at his ticklish and peculiar touch.

“Ah, okay. I love you, I said I love you!”
Even if the words were reluctantly said, they were filled with sincerity.

Nok Hyun, who surely knew this, seemed satisfied and smiled.

Tae In, who was blankly staring at his beautiful face, also smiled.

“Me bathing you is….”
“Absolutely not, go away.”
Tae In was firm.

Just because he said he loved her, it didn’t make the embarrassment disappear.

Tae In, who had bathed refreshingly, explored the hotel. It was four to five times more spacious and pleasant than yesterday’s accommodation.

When she opened the terrace door, a swimming pool spread out.

“Wow!”
Tae In, who dipped her hand into the swimming pool water, sparkled her eyes.

“It’s warm.”
Tae In turned her head in wonder and looked at Nok Hyun.

An indifferent yet affectionate gaze was directed at Tae In.

“I should’ve brought a swimsuit.”
“I bought it.”
“Really? Mine?”
“Yes.”
Tae In, who was squatting and checking the water temperature, got up and approached Nok Hyun.

Even the way she squinted her eyes in the sun was beautiful. Tae In, who was staring at his face, subtly started a conversation.

“Why are you being nice to me?”
Just as Nok Hyun was about to answer, the sound of a bell ringing was heard.

When Nok Hyun opened the door, the staff set up a table full of food.

There was a variety of delicious food.

“Wow, these are all my favorites.”
It was a feast of Tae In’s favorite foods, including creamy pasta, ribs, and chicken dishes.

Looking at Tae In, who clasped her hands with a blissful expression, Nok Hyun chuckled.

Then, he pulled Tae In to him and sat her on his lap.

Tae In scrunched her face slightly.

Even though she had relaxed her body in the warm water, the pain still lingered.

“Am I the only one in pain?”
Tae In complained softly.

“Perhaps.”
“I’m starting to feel a bit wronged.”
“Is it really painful?”
Nok Hyun asked, holding Tae In, who sat on his lap.

Tae In looked down at Nok Hyun, who seemed to lean into her arms, and shook her not completely dry hair.

“…It’s not deathly painful, just barely bearable?”
Nok Hyun, who had buried his face in Tae In’s bosom, looked up at her.

“Really?”
She felt as if she had made a faux pas. Just as she was about to speak again due to a vague unease, Nok Hyun fed Tae In a piece of meat cut to a suitable size.

In the midst of this, the ribs were tearfully delicious.

Was it because she had overexerted herself yesterday? Or was it because it was hotel room service.

As the meat melted and disappeared in her mouth, Tae In, feeling regretful, opened her mouth again.

Nok Hyun chuckled and fed her more meat.

“It’s delicious, but I’ll eat by myself now.”
When Tae In sat on the chair next to him, Nok Hyun handed her the utensils.

She never thought the day would come when she would receive such delicate treatment.

Is the phrase ‘greatly moved’ meant for times like this?

“Can I swim after eating all this?”
“Yes.”
“Do I not need to go to work?”
“I’ve told them you’re taking the day off.”
“To play with me?”
“Of course.”
“What’s going on? Why are you being so nice to me, really? Feeding me delicious things.”
Tae In asked, sounding both amazed and suspicious.

Nok Hyun placed the food that Tae In frequently reached for with her fork in front of her and opened his mouth.

“Because we couldn’t celebrate our wedding anniversary together.”
“Are you trying to capture me by making me full first?”
As Tae In squinted and asked, Nok Hyun, with a smile on his face, replied.

“That’s right.”
“…How did you hold yourself back all this time, Nok Hyun.”
As Nok Hyun wiped off the cream sauce on Tae In’s lips with a napkin, he opened his mouth.

“That’s the thing, if you knew how many times I had to take cold showers, you would want to hug me out of pity.”
