Impure Wedding Night - Chapter 63

#63. The first selfie of the two
2024.01.05.

Today, Yerin and Lee Hyun looked so good together that I momentarily overlooked how desperate Seoyoon was to marry Lee Hyun.

Later, Heejun waved his hand and corrected what he had said.

“No, it’s just a metaphor. A metaphor.”

“Oppa, no matter how much I tempted you, you shouldn’t have come to me back then!”

Seoyoon was annoyed by this situation where everything was wrong.

If Heejun had firmly stayed by Yerin’s side no matter how much I tempted you, things wouldn’t have gotten so messed up now.

Heejun opened his mouth wide as if he was dumbfounded.

“Kwak Seoyoon, why are you saying that? When did you say you liked me first?”

“That’s all in the past.”

Seoyoon let out a deep sigh.

“If you had stayed by Han Yerin’s side the whole time, we wouldn’t have had to sit across from each other like this and be struggling.”

Heejun also agreed.

Seo-yoon quickly filled the empty glass with amber liquid again.

Since Hee-jun seemed to be having a hard time winning over Ye-rin’s heart, it was really time for her to step forward.

***

It was late at night when everyone had left

work. Ye-rin was waiting alone in the secretary’s office so as not to disturb Lee Hyun, who was still concentrating on his work.

Of course, Ye-rin had a lot to do, so it wasn’t a boring time of endless waiting.

Taking her eyes off the documents she was reading for a moment, Ye-rin thought about what Hee-jun had said to her a few days ago.

“But you and Chief Chae-hyun are in a relationship that’s a bit embarrassing to make public, right?”

“No, there aren’t any pictures of you two together on SNS or anything?”

“You two have an shady relationship, right?”

　
In a way, it was natural to think that way.

Since they weren’t a real couple, she had never thought of taking affectionate pictures with Lee Hyun.

If they were a normal couple, they would have a lot of pictures of each other on their personal phones, even if they didn’t post them on SNS, but they didn’t have anything like that.

After thinking for a moment, Ye-rin entered Lee Hyun’s name on a portal site and started searching.

When Lee Hyun appeared at an official event, the photos taken by reporters came flooding in.

They were probably taken in a split second, so they must have been taken hastily, but Lee Hyun was perfect even in those.

It was a moment when I realized why the photographers were praising Lee Hyun as the perfect subject.

“Should I save even these photos?”

The persistent Hee-jun might show up anytime or anywhere.

If she really loved her boyfriend, wouldn’t she save these article photos?

She might want to see her perfect boyfriend anytime, anywhere?

As she was thinking that,

a low voice suddenly came from beside her.

“Did I really want to see you?”

“Oh, that’s a surprise.”

Ye-rin turned her head and was startled when she saw Lee Hyun’s face. She

quickly closed the phone she was looking at, but when she saw Lee Hyun’s face full of smiles, she thought that he had already figured out what she was doing.

“So this is it.” As

Ye-rin was about to explain.

Lee Hyun extended his long fingers and placed his index finger on her lips.

Because of that, Yerin’s eyes widened and rounded.

“If my guess is right, stick your lips out once.”

“… … .”

“If it’s wrong, stick your lips out twice.”

Before she could even ask what the situation was,

Lee Hyun sat down on Yerin’s desk and gave her a heated gaze.

“Did you lose focus while working and want to take a break?”

“Yes?”

“We have a rule between us. You should answer like that.”

In fact, it was a rule that Lee Hyun unilaterally set, rather than between us, but there was no time to argue about it.

Yerin had no choice but to stick her lips out once.

It felt strange because it looked exactly like she was kissing Lee Hyun’s index finger, which was on top of her lips.

“And you were looking for my picture because you missed me so much?”

That wasn’t it.

Yerin couldn’t say no out loud, so she brought her lips together twice and kissed Lee Hyun’s index finger.

The feeling of Yerin’s lips touching his face made Lee Hyun’s face, which had always been relaxed, stiffen for a moment.

Fortunately, Lee Hyun took his hand away without asking any more questions.

Only then could Yerin exhale and smile awkwardly.

“I want to help you save better photos than these article photos.”

Lee Hyun leaned against the desk and stretched out his arm toward Yerin.

Yerin shook his head at his gesture of asking him to hold her hand.

It was late, after everyone had left work, but it was a company where anyone could come at any time.

As if he had anticipated her reaction, Lee Hyun walked first.

“Come down to the executive parking lot. I’ll be waiting.”

After telling Yerin where he had parked his car, Lee Hyun left the office first.

Lee Hyun had already left, but the woody scent he emanated from him still lingered around Yerin.

“Whew.”

Yerin quickly gathered her belongings and hurried toward the elevator.

While waiting for the elevator, Yerin unconsciously touched the lips that Lee Hyun’s index finger had touched.

They were still hot.

As if Lee Hyun’s hands and eyes had touched them.

***

Lee Hyun’s car stopped at an outdoor park with a panoramic view of Seoul’s nightscape.

It was a famous dating course, so there were couples standing here and there looking at the night view together.

“Can we hold it here?”

Looking around, there were other couples quite far away.

Instead of answering, Yerin put her hand on Lee Hyun’s large hand.

Then the two of them turned their gaze to the glittering streets of Seoul.

“I kept thinking about what Heejun oppa said when he came to see me a few days ago, so I was looking for Lee Hyun’s photos.”

“What did he say?”

“He said that our relationship was not honorable, so we couldn’t post even one photo we took together on SNS or something.”

Lee Hyun snickered as if he was dumbfounded by that.

“If only Han Yerin would make up her mind, we could have our photo on the front page of tomorrow’s newspaper.”

It was a joke, but it was actually serious.

Lee Hyun had the ability to do that.

“I think we worked hard to look like a couple. I guess I was lacking in that area.”

Lee Hyun took his cell phone out of his jacket pocket and stretched out his long arms.

Then he naturally wrapped his arms around Yerin’s shoulders and pulled her into his arms.

“Let’s take a picture, we too.”

Yerin’s face was awkwardly expressed on the screen of the phone.

Lee Hyun whispered softly in her ear while looking at Yerin.

“Wouldn’t it be counterproductive if we took a picture like that?”

“Yes.”

“Well, how about you wrap your arms around my waist to make us look closer?”

“Huh, waist?”

When Yerin hesitated, Lee Hyun lowered the hand he was holding the phone with.

Then, he grabbed Yerin’s arm that was floating in the air and placed it on his waist, smiling as if he was satisfied. It was

the complete opposite of what Lee Hyun had done in the waiting room after Seo Yoon’s gayageum recital.

Back then, he didn’t like Seo Yoon even lightly touching his body, but now he didn’t at all.

Thinking back, it was really strange.

I was someone who was extremely reluctant to have anyone touch my body, but Yerin was always the exception.

“Should we take a picture?”

Lee Hyun thought for a moment, and Yerin quietly called out to him.

“Okay. One, two, three.”

The shutter sounded and the awkward two people were captured in a photo.

Yerin, looking at the photos, thought for a moment and then took out her phone from her bag. She

turned on the camera app she usually uses to take pictures with Na-ri and showed her a few cute stickers.

“What is that?”

“These days, they recognize faces and put cute stickers that match them.”

Just as Yerin explained, it was a unique app that recognized faces and put things like rabbit ears and teddy bear ears on them.

“Would you like to take a picture with this?”

“It’s nice.”

Since Lee Hyun’s arms were a little longer, he took Yerin’s phone.

Every time he pressed a few stickers, cat whiskers appeared on Lee Hyun’s face and then rabbit ears appeared on him repeatedly.

He looked surprisingly cute with those stickers on his handsome face. When

Yerin covered her mouth with one hand and laughed, Lee Hyun bashfully blurted out,

“I don’t think it suits me well.”

“No. It suits me too well.”

Yerin quickly made Lee Hyun raise his lowered arm again.

“I really want to take a picture with this app with Lee Hyun.”

“Yes. Because Han Ye-rin said she wanted to do that.”

Lee Hyun took dozens of pictures with popular stickers on the app, as if he was willing to grant her whatever she wanted.

“Do you think it’s done now?”

Only after Yerin abruptly stopped him could Lee Hyun stop taking pictures.

Yerin couldn’t hide her smile as she looked at the album.

The two of them, who had been awkward at first, gradually began to smile naturally as they went on.

Her heart felt light when she thought that there would still be pictures to remember after her fake relationship with Lee Hyun ended.

“Are you satisfied?”

Lee Hyun smiled as if he was satisfied, watching Yerin, who couldn’t take her eyes off the pictures.

“Yes. No matter what stickers I put on, Lee Hyun’s handsome face can’t be hidden.”

After saying that, Yerin covered her mouth with one hand, feeling a little disappointed.

She should have been thinking about it in her head, but

it just came out without her knowing.

The corners of Lee Hyun’s mouth rose even higher because of that.

“Do you know what I’m thinking about right now?”

“What are you thinking about?”

“It was the first time I thought that there are good things about being handsome.”

Perhaps because he said that with his handsome face,

Yerin quickly turned her head to see if someone had heard Lee Hyun’s story while passing by. If anyone had

heard it, it would have been so arrogant that they would have pointed fingers at him.
