Dr. Kang Hyeongmin found the cute young lady, who was cutely staring at him with wide eyes next to the patient, more interesting than the patient himself.
Although she looked more challenging than he had thought, he liked her friendly face.
“You must have been very surprised. Since you took the medicine, you should be fine now.”
As he kindly smiled and spoke to Sooyoung, Woojin, with a sullen expression, said,
“Why are you talking to her? You should talk to me; I’m the patient.”
“You’re familiar with it. This lady is new. What’s your name?”
“I’m Kim Sooyoung.”
“Your name is pretty.”
When Hyeongmin chuckled, Woojin said with an unpleasant expression,
“Why are you so obsessed with a little girl? Stop it. Why isn’t Seol Ji-hyun here?”
Why does he speak so recklessly as a chief physician? Sooyoung subtly glared at Woojin.
However, ignoring whether he spoke or not, Hyeongmin spoke to Sooyoung again.
“Is it not hard working here?”
“Oh, no. It’s comfortable and good.”
As Sooyoung spoke politely, Hyeongmin became even more pleased.
“And Woojin doesn’t make it difficult for you?”
“Why do you keep saying unnecessary things? Aren’t you busy?”
When Woojin spoke with disgust, Hyeongmin, gathering medicines and tools, said,
“What do I have to be busy with? I’m only with the chairman and you. Drink water well, sleep at night, and if you feel uncomfortable, call. Ji-hyun went to the province for a meeting today. Sooyoung, take care of this guy. Feed him dinner.”
“Am I a child? What do I need to be taken care of?”
While everyone seems to be taking care of him, he speaks as if he lives alone, making Sooyoung laugh.
But Hyeongmin, as if he is accustomed to such a demeanor, showed a sign by tapping Woojin’s calf on the blanket instead of his shoulder.
Maybe because it’s not direct contact, he was relatively quiet this time when someone touched him.
To see Hyeongmin off, Sooyoung followed him to the living room. Looking at her like that, he gently spoke.
“If he catches a cold, his bronchi will be in trouble. If phlegm forms, tell him to spit it out and give him warm water frequently. If he feels like he has a fever, call immediately.”
Judging by the atmosphere, he seemed to know that Sooyoung is staying in this house. No, that’s not it. I have to leave work.
“Uh, Representative, no, when will Seol Ji-hyun come?”
“Well, that’s… she asked me to see it well since she can’t come herself. Oh, should I leave work?”
The man seemed to think they were living together even though they were separated by gender. Despite not understanding why, Sooyoung nodded her head without saying anything.
The departure time passed in the early evening, and while hesitating whether to go late, Hyeongmin kindly said,
“Then, leave work. Ji-hyun will ask you to come at night.”
When Hyeongmin spoke to her, Sooyoung raised her two hands and said nothing.
“Ah, I’ll take care of it. Don’t worry and go inside.”
“Please take care of our Woojin from now on as well.”
“What?”
“I’ve never seen anyone so close to Woojin before. I told Ji-hyun to keep an eye on Sooyoung for him. Did you happen to hear?”
“What? No.”
She now understood why Ji-hyun insisted on inviting her to his house. But why so much?
“It’s been ten years. Allowing a stranger. It seems like Sooyoung is a precious person to Woojin. Haha…”
Precious, huh? The chairman is called a noble, and the chief physician is called precious.
Sooyoung pondered where she had received such treatment. Without thinking, it was the first time since she was born.
With a somewhat shy face, she bowed repeatedly to him.
Feeling proud at the words “I am a noble,” Sooyoung walked proudly back into Woojin’s room.
However, while everyone else considered her noble, the landlord himself, who was enjoying these benefits, looked at her with an unpleasant expression.
Inadvertently sitting at the desk, Woojin, who had an unfriendly expression when she entered the room, spoke coldly.
“You just came into this room, huh?”
“I just came in earlier, you know? Are you okay? Shouldn’t you be lying down?”
“I took medicine, so I’m fine. Just leave.”
“…Don’t you need to eat dinner?”
“I don’t feel like it.”
“You should eat well to recover quickly.”
Upon hearing that, Woojin thought for a moment, then opened his mouth.
“Do you know how to make kimchi porridge?”
“Kimchi porridge? Boiling it with kimchi?”
“…Ugh, forget it. What do you know…”
When Woojin suddenly shook his head, Sooyoung shouted in frustration.
“I can make it! What’s so difficult about it? Does Mr. Seol Woojin like spicy food? Just wait a moment.”
Sooyoung confidently said and then left his room. However, as soon as she closed the door, she became somewhat embarrassed.
Kimchi porridge? Is there such a thing? No, how do you even boil porridge? Put rice in it… and boil it, right? Or should I just order it?
Sooyoung urgently opened a delivery app. However, even when searching for kimchi octopus porridge or kimchi tuna porridge, there was no pure kimchi porridge.
What on earth is kimchi porridge?
