So Soo-young also pretended not to know. It seemed he didn’t leave his room between 2 and 4 pm, so she might not see him again.
Feeling a bit sad at the thought of never seeing his face again, Soo-young sighed. Young-mi, noticing her niece’s sigh, asked.
“Why? Is it hard? You don’t have to do the job if it’s too much. I’ll find someone else.”
“He doesn’t like strangers coming and going. I’ll go. And since you didn’t see the homeowner for half a year, I probably won’t either.”
“Maybe so… What does the homeowner look like? How does someone so young live in such a big house? Do his parents have a lot of money?”
“I don’t know.”
“Or did he make it on his own at a young age?”
“That might be it.”
Soo-young thought he might be a model. Not just because of his face, but his slender body was also different from ordinary people. Then she remembered how deceptive the author Seolyong was.
How could he put that face as his own in the book? She wondered if he had seen his face in a magazine and based a character on it. Did he even get the model’s permission? If he didn’t, that would be a clear violation of portrait rights.
“Auntie, is that man really handsome?”
Lost in thought, Soo-young suddenly spoke to her aunt in a hushed tone as if sharing vital information.
“Is that so?”
Young-mi’s eyes widened.
“Yeah. He looks like he jumped right out of a comic book. His eyes are golden.”
Young-mi chuckled at that.
As if there would be such a person with tiger-cub eyes. She was somewhat pleased that her niece, who had always loved imagining things since she was young, hadn’t changed.
“Still, remember all men are wolves. You know that, right?”
She didn’t forget to warn her niece. No matter if his eyes were gold or silver, she believed anyone would be tempted by Soo-young’s purity and beauty.
Although she trusted the representative and had no immediate replacement, she worried about what to tell her sister if she found out. Young-mi felt utterly at a loss.
Arriving at his house before 2 pm the next day, Soo-young checked her phone until the exact moment it struck 2, then she entered the code and went in.
First, she checked the kitchen for any dishes to clean but, as expected, there was no sign of anyone eating.
Young-mi had worried he was starving himself, or perhaps he cleaned up immediately after eating. When she opened the fridge, she saw several black lunch boxes and water bottles.
It looked like the lunch boxes Young-mi mentioned. Peeking inside, there were various items from meat to vegetables.
However, it seemed like he didn’t eat much; some of the vegetables in the stacked lunch boxes were wilted. Being a model, he probably had to maintain his figure, she thought.
Soo-young left her bag on a chair and began to sweep the corridor with a broom she found in the utility room next to the kitchen. There was no visible dust, but she had to do her job anyway.
While sweeping the living room, she glanced at the closed room door, wondering what he was doing inside.
…He’s in there, right?
After sweeping, she took out a new dry cloth, tossed the used one in the trash, and started wiping the furniture.
Looking at the furniture, even to her untrained eye, it all seemed expensive.
Her aunt’s old sofa came to mind. How much would a sofa like this cost? She thought about using the money she earned from substituting for her aunt to buy a new sofa.
While wiping the sofa, she suddenly screamed. The homeowner was looking down at her from behind the sofa backrest.
Meeting her eyes squarely even though he supposedly couldn’t see.
“Why are you standing there?”
Startled, Soo-young asked, to which he replied in a dry voice.
“You’re too noisy.”
“What?”
Thinking back, Soo-young was sure she hadn’t made any sound. If she had washed dishes, there would have been some noise, but there were no dishes to clean.
“I didn’t make any noise?”
Soo-young spoke assertively, but Woo-jin frowned and looked down at her feet.
“Slippers.”
“Slippers?”
Soo-young’s gaze involuntarily fell to the floor. She had worn them to avoid making noise, but she couldn’t understand how they could be causing any sound here.
“Do you not wear slippers at your house?”
“What?”
“Why do you drag them so much? Do you know that noise is really annoying?”
Being blind, it was natural for his hearing to be sensitive. But this seemed a bit much.
“Are you doing this on purpose so I won’t come?”
This time, it was Woo-jin who was taken aback.
“What?”
“No, honestly, they don’t make any sound. You’re just doing this to get rid of me, right? I got a contract from that representative yesterday, so if you kick me out, that would be a breach of contract.”
“I never did anything on purpose…”
Soo-young, standing in front of a man who couldn’t see, clenched her fists and spoke firmly.
“No matter what you do, I’ll be coming here for the next three weeks. Even if I get a job within that time, I’ll manage somehow to stick it out for three weeks.”
It was something her mother would be shocked to hear, but Soo-young was determined to protect her aunt’s job by any means necessary.
“Huh…”
Woo-jin felt as if he could see her face, although it was invisible to him. The sound of her voice and her breathing made her presence known like no one else, except maybe his grandfather.
Watching the man stand there speechless with a baffled expression, Soo-young felt proud, thinking she had successfully stood up to the homeowner’s unreasonable behavior.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
