Isujeong was curious about Danwoo’s inner thoughts as he actively sought leniency for Jihye Soo, whose innocence had been proven.
However, Danwoo responded indifferently.
“I just wish you could live like a human being at least once. Occasionally look at the sky, be lazy on some days. Besides, you know how heavy a life of hiding and running can be.”
Danwoo, about to turn and leave, opened his mouth toward the seemingly drowsy Isujeong.
“I can’t guarantee that the hospital is safe, so I’m looking for a place to stay, and we’ll move soon.”
Isujeong looked at Danwoo, who was leaving the room, with eyes that seemed hazy and blurred like mist.
A few days had passed since Isujeong was discharged from the hospital and moved to a new place to stabilize.
With the data held by Choi Su-chul, a researcher at Hae Song Bio, it was sufficiently proven that Hae Song Bio had committed heinous acts.
The entire nation was astonished by the fact that they had made an unfair contract with M Pharmaceuticals, disguised the experimental drug as a drug that had not completed clinical trials, and distributed it.
However, opinions were divided on who the real culprit was, but the prosecution focused on investigating Wooseonho.

The USB sent by Isujeong also contained evidence that Wooseonho had accumulated funds illegally for Hae Song Group’s operating expenses.
However, due to the unclear source and the fact that it was an illegally recorded video, it was difficult to use the USB as public evidence.
Nevertheless, sensing Wooseonho’s desperate situation, he was actively trying to arrange a meeting to discuss the merger.
The special investigation team had prepared for Wooseonho’s arrest once the tracking of the secret fund’s account was completed.
The expectation of soon being able to see her mother led to calm and peaceful days for Danwoo.
A leisurely holiday morning after a long time.
It was a day to visit the countryside, so Jieun’s wake-up was faster than usual. When she tried to move quietly, Danwoo, who followed her to the living room, opened his mouth.
“I hope you live like a human being. Sometimes look at the sky, be lazy on some days. Besides, you know how heavy a life of hiding and running can be.”
Danwoo, with a half-asleep look, looked at Isujeong and spoke.
“I can’t sleep without you.”

“Then, what if I go back home?”
“Then don’t go. I’ll go with you. Or, if that’s not possible…”
Get married. Danwoo, who was muttering to himself, looked at Jieun’s movements again, following her gaze.
“Or, if that’s not possible, what else?”
“No, not saying it in this chaotic state. It should be done properly.”
If it were another time, Jieun would have questioned him back, asking what he meant. Knowing this, Danwoo nodded as if he understood, and Jieun treated him like a transparent person.
Unlike the excited Jieun, Danwoo, like a dog seeing its owner leaving on a long-awaited holiday, felt anxious.
With lips pressed against the white neck all day, wanting to keep him by her side.
While caressing the smooth bare skin, sometimes lingering and savoring it, I wanted to spend time with her, deeply intertwining with her when thirst arose.
However, because Jieun had been talking about going to the countryside for days, I couldn’t resist.
“I’m ready. We have about an hour. Seems like you woke up too early.”

Having finished getting ready for the outing, Jieun finally stood in front of me. Danwoo pulled her arm and made her sit on his thigh.
Putting strength into her legs, Jieun, looking awkwardly down at herself, swelled and sank as Danwoo pulled her waist with his arms wrapped around it, causing her weight to settle on the sofa.
Danwoo gazed steadily at Jieun, who was close, while brushing her hair aside with his fingers.
Uncertain of what to say, he tightly embraced Jieun, whose lips were blushing, looking at the reddening lips, and then, as if knowing the next step, he gently pulled her lips, which had been pulled weakly, closer.
With closed eyes, Jieun’s eyelashes trembled as Danwoo’s lips silently ascended.
Annoyingly, it had worn out slowly.
As a deep flush spread on Jieun’s cheeks, Danwoo’s lips delved deeper.
As Danwoo’s lips explored, a peculiar voice echoed each time they parted.
Amid rising body temperatures, in the tightly connected space, a moist sound emerged.
Breaking the delicate atmosphere, Jieun pushed Danwoo away, burying her face in his shoulder and intermittently breathing, she asked.

“Are you going to stay at home today?”
“No. This afternoon. There’s an Eagles League Championship open event.”
Invading the clothes that were neatly worn, the hand that had penetrated Danwoo’s chest skillfully wiped away the bare skin.
Danwoo, without giving Jieun a chance to notice his touch, moved his hand more discreetly. The passionate night seemed to be forgotten.
Should he just embrace her like this? Should he not let her go for a few hours, trapping her everywhere?
Suppressing desire with difficulty and pushing away intrusive thoughts, Danwoo stopped his hand and hugged Jieun.
