She knocked quite hard, but the tightly shut door showed no response.
Da Jung licked her dry lips and raised her hand to knock again. At that moment, the silent door suddenly swung open.
A man, dressed in a loose tshirt and shorts, looked at her as if questioning her purpose.
Feeling as if her face would burn at the slightest touch, Da Jung quickly lowered her gaze.
“……came to look for you.”
“What?”
“I came to find…something I lost…”
The man, who had been standing still, flicked his eyebrows.
“Wait.”
The door closed. When it opened again a moment later, the man seemed somehow larger.
“Here.”
The man extended something, which hung from his long fingers. It was an opaque black plastic bag that seemed to hold an enormous secret.
Da Jung carefully accepted the bag and checked its contents.
Inside the bag, there was a childish pair of panties, adorned with tiny teddy bear faces. It was undoubtedly what she had lost.
She had realized her panties were missing when she was preparing her toiletries to go to the shower early in the morning.
She recalled dropping something in front of the shower room last night, but she assumed the cleaning lady must have picked it up.
She hadn’t bothered asking around or searching for her lost underwear, never imagining that this man would have it.
The black plastic bag crinkled, shyly crumpling in Da Jung’s hand.
Her face felt hot. Despite multiple applications of lip balm, her lips felt as if they were burning.
“Ththank you.”
“What for.”
The man replied indifferently, his lips curled as if he had more business to attend to.
“Is there anything else?”
“What?”
Da Jung swallowed her groan. Her pathetic stammering was driving her crazy.
She had vowed to speak assertively and confidently, but it wasn’t working out as she had planned.
She was introverted, but she wasn’t always like this. In her studies and work, she was always confident and proactive.
Perhaps her lack of experience with the opposite sex played a part, but whenever she was around this man, she felt embarrassingly shy.
Determined not to act stupid, Da Jung responded with resolution.
“Yes!”
The man, who had been staring at her, widened his eyes as if he didn’t understand.
Seriously. Pretending to know everything even when nothing’s been said, and now pretending not to understand. At her wit’s end, Da Jung clenched her eyes shut.
“…One, one week! I’m leaving here in one week!”
“And?”
“So, what I mean is! For one week, we…”
Unable to continue, Da Jung bit her lip hard.
Despite having practiced hundreds of times, recalling the advice Sol Yi gave her, she couldn’t get the words out after that.
“For one week, what?”
The man urged, perhaps growing impatient. Da Jung parted her tightly bitten lips.
“Be, be my boyfriend!”
“…..”
The man didn’t say a word. Nor was there any notable change in his expression.
He who had been gazing in silence for a long time finally spoke in a magnanimous tone, opening the door wide.
“Come in.”
Surprisingly nonplussed by the smooth transition, Da Jung carefully stepped inside.
The door closed, and through that door, the man gently pushed Da Jung. His breath spilled over her forehead, close enough to limit her view.
“What are we doing?”
“Lover… lover…”
Uh, the man making noise in his throat put his lips to her ear.
“But you’ll be in trouble if you eat anything.”
A warning voice rang in her ear, but Da Jung couldn’t hear anything right now.
“How… am I doing?”
She blurted out the words she’d been rehearsing all along. The man was silent again.
The man who had been examining her sunkissed cheeks and innocent eyes suddenly chuckled. His breath of laughter spilled out, tickling the area around her ear.
She had expected it. A man like this would not be attracted to a plain woman like herself.
“…Ah, I understand. Men probably prefer glamorous and pretty girls. I also know that I’m not that pretty. But.”
“You’re pretty.”
“Pardon?”
The man she had been looking at again moved his lips.
“Pretty, like a puppy’s tail.”
Initially, her vague resentment about his glances and behaviors was simply interpreted as unpleasant. But now, she thought she understood.
It felt strange, like being tickled by a puppy’s tail. It was a new and prickly sensation, but it wasn’t unpleasant.
She was willing to go along with it, even knowing that a woman, who she believed wouldn’t have the audacity, was clearly hitting on him.
Not knowing what to say, Da Jung bit her lips.
She wasn’t sure if describing a person as being like a puppy’s tail was appropriate, but one thing was clear.
The moment that hormones react is just like now.
His long fingers lightly curled her loose hair.
“You’re beautiful.”
“So… be my lover. For the remaining week…”
“I told you, you’re going to get in trouble.”
“We’re adults capable of taking responsibility for our own lives.”
Da Jung bravely replied, laughing awkwardly.
“So just for a week. We can date, eat delicious food, and…”
Before she finished her sentence, the man chuckled.
“Sounds good.”
“Right?”
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
