“Mr. Lee Hyun?”
Since Lee Hyun also grabbed the cart, they were hugging each other from behind.
“I thought we both wanted to pull the cart.”
Lee Hyun smiled dizzily as if he had no other ulterior motives.
“I think this is the best compromise.”
“No… … .”
He really was a man who loved compromises and compromises.
I should have been suspicious when he readily handed me the shopping cart.
Yerin was trapped in Lee Hyun’s arms, unable to escape.
“Mr. Lee Hyun, I don’t have to push the cart, so you can take it all by yourself.”
It was quickly discovered that she was saying this to escape Lee Hyun’s arms.
“No. I don’t want to. I want to pull it with Ms. Han Yerin.”
The two stopped in the middle of the mart, so a passerby spoke to them.
“Can you please step aside?”
“I’m sorry.”
Yerin quickly apologized and had no choice but to walk away while still in Lee Hyun’s arms.
“Lee Hyun, you’re not going to stay like this until the end of shopping, are you?”
“I intend to.”
While thinking about how to persuade him,
Yerin’s cell phone in her bag started ringing.
She didn’t know who was calling, but it was truly a savior.
Yerin reached out to her bag and asked Lee Hyun for understanding.
“Lee Hyun, I think I need to answer the phone.”
Lee Hyun had no choice but to let Yerin go, making a regretful expression.
Even though she was out of Lee Hyun’s arms,
she still felt as if his warmth was lingering on her back. The woody scent from Lee Hyun kept tickling Yerin’s nose.
Yerin bit her lips as she checked the caller ID.
Lee Hyun tilted his head to the side, wondering why Yerin was only looking at the phone screen, leaving her behind to answer the phone. Yerin
felt his gaze and quickly answered Na-ri’s call.
“Oh, it’s me.”
– Yerin, can you talk?
“Yeah. Is your appointment over?”
– I’m just heading home after dinner. More importantly, I heard there was a murder in your neighborhood. It’s not the villa you live in, is it?
Yerin could sense that he was asking with a desperate voice, hoping that it would be so.
“Yes.”
– Wow, that’s why you called me, to me?
“Yeah. I was originally going to ask if I could sleep at your house today… … .”
– You want to come right now?
Yerin hesitated for a moment at that question.
When the company called Na-ri, there was no other choice but a hotel or Na-ri’s house.
However, things were a little different now that Lee Hyun had a spare house that he wasn’t using.
Na-ri worked day and night, and she knew that his employees would often come to the house for meetings, so she couldn’t stay at her house for a long time. She had decided
to stay at the house that Lee Hyun had provided and help him more with his work, so she was going to do that.
“No. I found a place to stay for the time being.”
– Really? If you’re going to stay at a hotel or something, just come to my house.
Yerin had no choice but to lie, unable to tell me that Lee Hyun had found her a place.
“The company provides housing. I think I can stay there for a while before I find a new place to move to.”
– Really? Big companies really do have great benefits. Hyunjun, you can just drop me off here.
Yerin asked, puzzled by the familiar name coming out of Na-ri’s mouth.
“Are you still with someone?”
“Uh, with Hyunjun.”
“What? With Secretary Choi?”
She could feel Lee Hyun, who was standing next to her, showing interest because she was mentioning someone she knew.
“T-Should I hang up for now? I’m at the mart for a bit too.”
– Okay, then. I’ll call you tomorrow.
After quickly ending the call with Na-ri, Lee Hyun leaned against the cart and asked, seeming very curious.
“Who’s calling that you’re calling Secretary Choi?”
Yerin had no choice but to bring up what she should have said earlier.
“CEO Kim Na-ri of Cheto.”
“Ah, CEO Kim Na-ri. It seems like the two of you have become really close.”
“Yes. You’re the same age and have similar tastes, so you became close very quickly.”
I wondered if Lee Hyeon would think it was strange, but he seemed more curious about something else.
“So, CEO Kim Na-ri and Secretary Choi are together now?”
“I think so. It seems like the two of you have become quite close.”
“Huh.”
Lee Hyun slightly raised the corners of his lips as if he found it amusing.
“So the woman Secretary Choi is meeting is CEO Kim Na-ri.”
The voice on the phone in front of me today sounded familiar.
“So that’s why you left without looking back.”
Listening to Ye-rin, it seemed like the two of them had really become quite close.
“At this rate, Secretary Choi might start dating before me.”
The thought made him feel uneasy for no reason.
“I can’t stand seeing Secretary Choi dating first.”
It was a strange sense of competition.
“Lee Hyun, I think this is enough. Should I go now?”
While he was on the phone with Na-ri, Lee Hyun had already packed all the daily necessities in his cart.
Lee Hyun looked at the items in his cart and made an “Ah-” sound as if he remembered something he had forgotten.
“Don’t you have any comfortable pajamas and blankets for Han Ye-rin?”
“Oh, I see.”
“Let’s buy those and then move.”
***
“Are you a newlywed couple?”
As Lee Hyun and Ye-rin entered the blanket section, the employee spoke to them first. Ye-rin was about to say no when Lee Hyun suddenly
blurted out . “Do you think so?” “Then. Don’t you two look great together?” Lee Hyun smiled brightly at those words, as if he was really happy about it, and Ye-rin blushed in embarrassment. “Summer is coming soon, so blankets that are too thick won’t do.” The clerk brought out a thin blanket and offered it to Lee Hyun and Ye-rin. “How about this? Since we’re going to sleep together anyway, it doesn’t matter if the blanket is thin. Hahaha.” Even Ye-rin’s ears turned red at those words. “Okay, take this.” Lee Hyun quickly put the blankets in the shopping cart. Since they had already been marked as newlyweds when they entered, Yerin couldn’t deny it later. The clerk quickly went somewhere and brought out two pillows, placing them on the cart. “Should I just buy the blanket? Should I also buy two pillows to make it nice? There’s a buy one get one free sale right now, so take one for the price of one.” Yerin was about to refuse, saying that she would be the only one sleeping in that house anyway, so she only needed one pillow. Lee Hyun nodded with a friendly smile. “Of course.” *** They had only gone to buy a few things, but Lee Hyun had bought so many items that Yerin had to carry a small bag while Yerin was carrying the items in both hands. As they entered Yerin’s house, she said the things she had never been able to say at the mart. “Lee Hyun, why did you pretend to be a newlywed couple earlier?” “Wasn’t it weirder when you pretended to be a boss and a subordinate who came to shop together?” “That’s true, but… …” This time, when she heard it again, it was so true that Yerin was speechless. The sight of Yerin biting her lips was so adorable that Lee Hyun couldn’t help but snicker. “You can pretend to be a fake lover, but you can’t pretend to be a fake wife?” “No, that’s not what I meant.” She thought it was too much to be by Lee Hyun’s side as a fake lover, but when he asked her if they were a couple, she felt really strange. “Yeah, I guess that’s why I asked that question because most people think we’re a couple when we go shopping together at the mart.” Yerin quickly shook off the thought, thinking that she was the only one thinking seriously about it. It was quite late because Yerin had just finished shopping for necessities. Lee Hyun put down his luggage and headed straight for the front door. “Are you going?” It was a question that omitted the word “already,” but that was really fortunate. After suddenly asking the question, Yerin bit her lips belatedly. Lee Hyun turned around and a sly smile appeared on his face. “You seem to be sad that I said I’m going.” “No?” When Yerin quickly answered with her expressionless face, Lee Hyun nodded as if he had expected her to do so. “Yes. You have no regrets, Han Yerin.” “… … .” “You must have been tense and uncomfortable since yesterday. Today, please rest comfortably by yourself.” That was why he was leaving early. “I also have a lot of paperwork to review.”
Seeing Lee Hyun put on his shoes, Yerin spoke.
“I’ll wake you up tomorrow morning.”
“Okay. Lock the door and go to sleep.”
The two of them stared at each other for quite a while at the entrance.
After the door slammed shut, Yerin stood by the entrance for a while.
She felt strangely strange.
She kept thinking about the fact that Lee Hyun was right upstairs and what the clerk at the supermarket had said.
Newlyweds.
She knew that our relationship would never develop that way, but her heart was pounding loudly and beating
like someone who was expecting something.
***
“Whew.”
Even though he had worked out to sweat it out, Lee Hyun couldn’t fall asleep.
The fact that Yerin was right downstairs made his blood flow quickly throughout his body.
He thought about helping Yerin move to a better place because the house she was living in wasn’t safe, and the idea he came up with was to find her a house in the closest place.
Since Lee Hyun lived on only one floor, the only option was the lower floor.
Since it was a place known for good security, he wanted to blame himself so much for being so complacent in the past, thinking that if he let Ye-rin stay there, there would be nothing to worry about.
Of course, she was safe now.
No, she wasn’t safe.
They said she was cut off from various external dangers.
Lee Hyun was overlooking it.
The existence of this evil desire that kept raising its head only toward Ye-rin.
