#73. Do we really want to date?
2024.02.09.

　
Seo-yoon started to make excuses while moving her eyes anxiously.

“I’m sorry. My hand slipped while I was trying to drink a cocktail… …”

It was an excuse that sounded awkward to anyone.

“Director Cha Yi-hyun, are you okay?”

Seo-yoon took a step closer and reached out to wipe the cocktail that had splashed on Lee Hyun’s face.

Thump-

Lee Hyun swatted her hand away faster than anyone else.

Seo-yoon flinched and took a step back again.

She had to tell Lee Hyun that she wasn’t trying to pour the cocktail, but her mouth wouldn’t open as she stared into his cold eyes.

Ye-rin, who was watching from the side, took a handkerchief out of her clutch and gently grabbed Lee Hyun’s arm.

Lee Hyun turned his head away from his cold gaze at the warmth he felt from her arm.

“I’ll wipe it off.”

Unlike when Seo-yoon approached him earlier, Lee Hyun gave Ye-rin his face like a docile lamb.

He even bent his knees to adjust Ye-rin’s height so that Ye-rin could wipe his face comfortably.

Ye-rin wiped Lee Hyun’s face, which had her eyes tightly shut, by pressing it with a handkerchief.

There weren’t many drops on it, but Seo-yoon was watching from the side, so it took longer for him to do so.

“It’s all done. Your suit is wet, so what should I do?”

“Should I go out for a bit of air?”

Ye-rin readily nodded at Lee Hyun’s suggestion.

“Okay.”

Before going out, Lee Hyun said a word to Seo-yoon, who was standing blankly next to him.

“If that cocktail had been poured on Han Ye-rin instead of me.”

“… … .”

“I would never have let it go.”

So he meant that she should consider it lucky that he had taken the drink for her instead.

***

Lee Hyun went out to the terrace and took off his suit jacket that was soaked in cocktails.

When Yerin reached out to hold it for her, Lee Hyun stopped her.

“I’m not here as your secretary today, so I’ll pack my own clothes.”

“You feel uncomfortable, right? It would have been better if I had gotten wet… … .”

Lee Hyun still had many people to meet here today.

Even if I got wet, I could have just left first, but Lee Hyun didn’t.

Lee Hyun raised his eyebrows as if to ask why she was saying that.

“I left Han Yerin alone because my conversation with Chairman Cha Do-jun went on for too long. I’m sorry.”

“No. I feel bad that I followed you around and made a fuss.”

Lee Hyun took a step closer to Yerin as she spoke.

He then reached out and wrapped his hand around her waist.

Because her dress was so revealing, Lee Hyun’s hand touched Yerin’s bare skin.

Lee Hyun whispered softly into Yerin’s ear, who was startled.

“I think it would be better to act naturally.”

Even without turning her head to where Lee Hyun’s gaze landed, she seemed to know who it was.

“What were you talking about with that woman earlier?”

Yerin said something a little different to Lee Hyun, who was curious.

“Lee Hyun, do you want to date for real?”

“… … .”

“Until that woman I met at the Cheto brand charity bazaar showed up… … .”

“Okay.”

Lee Hyun quickly answered, thinking that Yerin would go back on what she had said.

“Let’s do it, for real.”

Lee Hyun answered as if he had been waiting for her.

He was curious about why Yerin had made up her mind like this, but he didn’t ask.

Whatever the reason, he was satisfied with the fact that she had opened her heart to him. Before he knew it

, Yerin put her hand on Lee Hyun’s shoulder, who had come a little closer.

The cold face that would slap Seo Yoon away whenever she tried to touch him was nowhere to be found.

“Lee Hyun, I actually didn’t ask her to date with very pure intentions.”

Lee Hyun snickered at her honest words, seeming pleased.

“It doesn’t matter. “What was Ms. Han Ye-rin’s intention?”

“What would you do if I tried to use the chief?”

Of course, I had no such intentions, but I asked out of curiosity.

Lee Hyun answered with a relaxed expression on his face.

“It doesn’t matter.”

“… … .”

“I’d be willing to be used by you.”

She could tell all too well that it wasn’t a joke, but sincere.

Lee Hyun’s eyes, which had come closer before she knew it, were unwavering.

“Thank you for saying that. But I’m sure you know, Lee Hyun, but that won’t happen.”

“You can use me however you want ,

I don’t mind.” “I feel really strange when I think about another woman next to the chief.”

And especially when she thought of Seo Yoon, she couldn’t accept it.

If she couldn’t properly desire Lee Hyun and had him stolen from her, she would feel as if she had lost the world.

Lee Hyun slowly stroked Ye Rin’s hair and whispered affectionately.

“I’m telling you this because I think Han Ye Rin doesn’t know.”

“… … .”

“People call what we did a relationship.”

Yes, it was fake, but she was sincere to Lee Hyun while they were dating.

So now it was true that she couldn’t really tell what was real and what was fake.

Especially if Seo Yoon found out that this relationship with Lee Hyun was fake, she would try to dig into Lee Hyun’s side even more desperately, so she couldn’t let it be.

Since she had decided to be honest, there was no more hesitation.

Yerin lifted the hand she had placed on Lee Hyun’s shoulder and slowly stroked his cheek.

It was the cheek where Seo Yoon’s swollen cocktail had splashed a little while ago.

Feeling Yerin’s touch, Lee Hyun glanced at a certain place.

“There’s one more onlooker.”

“Really?”

Seo Yoon had brought Heejun as her partner, and it seemed that he had come over and was looking at her and Lee Hyun.

After realizing that, she wanted to act more boldly.

Yerin wrapped her arms around Lee Hyun’s shoulders as if she was proud.

Their bodies were even tighter than before.

Lee Hyun’s lips rose in a graceful arc.

“Even such a provocative Han Yerin is so charming, it’s a big deal.”

“Really?”

Yerin pulled Lee Hyun in and narrowed the distance between them a little more.

It was a distance where they could feel each other’s breaths.

It didn’t seem strange at all if their lips touched at any moment.

When she opened her heart, many things became easier than before.

Yerin, who had always thought she would push Lee Hyun away, kissed him first today and ran away.

Lee Hyun looked taken aback

. After kissing him first, Yerin blushed in embarrassment and took a step back.

Lee Hyun’s face shining in the moonlight was so captivating that I kissed him without realizing it, but now I wondered if I had done something wrong.

Lee Hyun grabbed Yerin’s wrist as it was leaving him and held her in his arms again.

“Shouldn’t we give the onlookers more fun?”

“… … .”

“If it ends like this, there’s no point in staring at me like that.”

With those words, Lee Hyun’s hot lips descended on Yerin’s.

It was a kiss that was on a completely different level of maturity than the kiss Yerin had given him earlier.

“Han Yerin, being in a real relationship means doing this every day, whenever you want.”

“Oh, I know.”

Yerin’s cheeks were flushed as she answered shyly.

Even that appearance was so lovely.

“Since you said you knew, I want to live up to your expectations again.”

“But not at the company.”

“I’ll try.”

“But should we reveal our relationship to the people at the company now?”

“Of course we should. Since we’re really dating.”

Lee Hyun waited for Yerin’s answer for a moment as if it was okay.

Yerin slowly nodded.

“Everyone will be very surprised.”

Lee Hyun only had Yerin in his eyes as if he didn’t care about anyone else.

“Now it’s Han Yerin’s turn to be surprised. Let’s build our relationship even stronger.”

At those words, Yerin’s eyes widened.

It was what she had said to Seo Yoon.

A warning that the relationship between Lee Hyun and me was so strong that there would be no room for her to come in.

“Did you hear all that?”

“Not all, but a little.”

Lee Hyun smiled and tilted his head.

Their lips met again.

Their lips, which had supposedly touched briefly and then separated, left a mark for quite some time.

The night was beginning.

***

“Did you see the woman that Chief Chae-hyun brought today?”

“She’s so pretty. Is she the woman you’re seeing?”

At the after-party held after the KK Foods founding anniversary ceremony, everyone was talking about Lee Hyun and Ye-rin.

Hyun-jun was sipping a cocktail next to Na-ri when he heard Lee Hyun’s name, and his ears perked up.

“By the way, I heard that Chief Cha Yi-hyun will be here today.”

If she personally ordered the reservation at the Queen’s M dress shop, then she must be a pretty important person.

Hyun-joon, who had been so excited about coming to the event with Na-ri that he had neglected to take care of Lee Hyun, belatedly became curious.

“You came today, right? I haven’t seen the chief even once.”

As soon as Hyun-joon finished talking, the terrace door opened and Lee Hyun appeared.

“Huh?? Secretary Han?”

Hyun-joon was startled when he confirmed the identity of the person linking arms with him.

Na-ri already knew, so she smiled faintly without being too surprised.

“Chief Cha Yi-hyun’s partner was Secretary Han Ye-rin.”

“Did you not find a partner?”

“No. Chief Cha Yi-hyun’s partner was Secretary Han Ye-rin from the beginning.”

“Really?”

Hyun-joon looked surprised, wondering if what he was seeing was really true.

Hyun-jun greeted Lee Hyeon and Ye-rin,

who had come up to him without him noticing. “I didn’t know that the secretary who was the chief’s partner was coming with you.”

“Isn’t she coming with you as a secretary today?”

“Huh?”

“Secretary Choi, say hello. She’s my girlfriend.”

“Hey, chief? What did you just say?”

Hyun-jun was surprised, his eyes wide open in disbelief.
