Before the news article about the construction company change was released.
Upon arriving at the lounge restaurant, Chaeyoon approached the floor-to-ceiling glass window as soon as she entered the room.
“Wow, the view here is amazing. It will be even prettier when it gets darker.”
Jaeo’s eyes widened in surprise at Chaeyoon’s considerably excited tone.
It seemed unusual for him to be so thrilled about the view outside the window.
Jaeo, looking at Chaeyoon, who seemed to be in a good mood, asked curiously, “Have you never been here before?”
Charmed by the wide view outside the window, Chaeyoon replied without taking her eyes off the window, “I’ve never been here. I usually eat in the hall. Have you been here often?”
When discussing business matters, they preferred enclosed spaces, so their meeting places were always private rooms.
“Not often, just a few times.”
As Jaeo nodded, Chaeyoon, pointing her finger at the landscape outside the window, said, “Even if I’ve been here a few times, I didn’t know the view was this good.”
Whether they were too busy inside or she had no emotional capacity to care about the scenery outside, she never paid much attention.
Jaeo nodded, and Chaeyoon’s round eyes widened with a big smile.
“Then this is the first time I’ve seen it with you today.”
At that moment, a faint wave appeared in Jaeo’s eyes, as if that meant something significant.
What could he possibly like so much?
“I feel good.”
Seeing Jaeo’s eyes, which seemed to express that he felt so good that he could die, Chaeyoon reached out to him.
His large hand gently stroked her round head.
“Why are you so happy?”
Feeling Jaeo’s touch, Chaeyoon turned her head to face him.
When their eyes met, her smiling mouth lifted up in a sunny manner.
“I like doing something for the first time with you, Oppa.”
Jaeo’s hand that was caressing her round head stopped.
The playful conversation they had in the car before coming here crossed his mind.
[How about having dinner and going for a drive nearby?]He thought it was just a playful remark…
He realized that maybe she really wanted to go for a drive.
Until now, Chaeyoon and his destination had always been either the company or home.
Not long ago, he was so busy that he had no time to breathe, and Jaeo didn’t think beyond worrying about Chaeyoon’s health, let alone doing something else.
He was stimulated unexpectedly again. His thick eyebrows furrowed.
“Stupid.”
Past Jaeo, who had tightly scheduled himself, and the head that hadn’t even thought about experiencing various things with Chaeyoon received curses from him. With a small sigh, he reached out to Chaeyoon.
Still engrossed in the scenery outside the window, Chaeyoon’s eyes widened when he embraced her from behind.
Chaeyoon raised her hand on Jaeo’s arms that hugged her tightly and said, “Employees will be coming in soon. Why are you like this?”
Despite such concerns, the strength of the embrace increased as he hugged her.
Their bodies were pressed together, and Chaeyoon’s cheeks began to flush with warmth.
Unaware of Chaeyoon’s reaction, Jaeo lightly placed his nose against her slender neck and spoke softly.
“Should I take a day off tomorrow.”
Startled by the unexpected words, Chaeyoon widened her eyes.
“All of a sudden?”
“Because I’ve been busy.”
It made sense.
Jaeo had never taken a break until now. No matter how good his stamina was, the body was not a machine, so instead of asking why he wanted to take a vacation, Chaeyoon asked something else.
“When will you take it?”
“I can take it tomorrow. How about that?”
Hearing about the urgent schedule, Chaeyoon raised an eyebrow in suspicion.
The company was in chaos right now, and he wanted to take a break tomorrow.
It was an unexpected decision. Instead of asking why he wanted to take a vacation, Chaeyoon turned to face Jaeo.
“Are you serious?”
“Yeah.”
The answer came without hesitation, showing 100% sincerity.
“How long?”
“As long as you want.”
“Huh? What’s the standard? You should rest as much as you want.”
“That’s as much as you want.”
“If I tell you to rest for more than a month, will you?”
“Yeah.”
It was the same determined look. An unwavering resolve was evident in his eyes.
Chaeyoon, feeling both unfamiliar and puzzled, blinked her eyes and stared at him.
Why did he suddenly decide to take a vacation?
While trying to figure out the cause, Chaeyoon pursed her lips with a perplexed expression.
“What are you going to do on vacation?”
“I’ll go to the movies with you, travel, have plenty of dates, and do everything I want.”
He was taking a vacation for that?
“It’s not because you’re tired of work, right?”
“I’ve been busier than now before.”
Even though his body wasn’t tired, he wanted to take a vacation and do such things. It seemed that he was bothered by what he had said a little earlier.
Discovering the reason behind Jaeo’s unexpected vacation talk, Chaeyoon, nestled in his arms, said, “If you don’t want to rest because you’re tired, let’s date on the weekends. If you don’t like that, you can take a day off on Fridays.”
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
