“Aren’t you tired?”

Lee Wooyeon asked, handing him a cold bottle of beer. CEO Kim, who was leaning on the railing and looking down at the sea, sighed as he accepted his beer.

“Yeah. I thought you would have arrived by now. If you have something to say, say it quickly.”

The story that Lee Wooyeon called him because he wanted to see him was harder to believe than the saying that someone mixed fermented soybean paste with red beans and planted it on the ground, and gold sprouted.

“I like the CEO because he has quick insight.”

After Lee Wooyeon took a sip of beer, he continued.

“I want to ask you a favor.”

“No. I will not.”

CEO Kim rejected Lee Wooyeon’s request without even hearing what he was asking for.

“That’s too much.”

“You’re the one who did too much. You bastard.”

“Ha ha ha.”

CEO Kim was confident that there would be no one but Lee Wooyeon who smiled so refreshingly even after being criticized.

“Please clean up the villa I bought last time.”

Whether CEO Kim refused or not, Lee Wooyeon didn’t care and stated his purpose.

“What? Why?”

CEO Kim knew that Lee Wooyeon had left the house behind. Although he thought the money he received from Lee Wooyeon was not enough, he pretended not to notice and passed over the house. He intended to stay there when he returned to Korea someday.

“I need to sort things out.”

“No. Am I your secretary? You’re crazy so I’ll organize it for you? Is it like that?”

CEO Kim looked Lee Wooyeon up and down with a straight face.

“Then why did you come, CEO?”

“What?”

“You probably didn’t come because you wanted to see me. You must have come because you have a purpose.”

Lee Wooyeon shook the bottle of beer and lowered his eyes, wondering what that was. CEO Kim, when Lee Wooyeon hit the nail on the head, cleared his throat and turned his head.

“Did you get a good script?”

“… … .”

A quick-witted bastard.

CEO Kim gritted his teeth and took a sip of beer.

“Take a look at it. You have plenty of time anyway.”

“I have a lot of time.”

Lee Wooyeon leaned against the railing. The wind blowing from the sea gently ruffled his hair. The sight of him gently curving his eyes, smiling, and brushing his hair looked like a scene from an advertisement, so CEO Kim watched in complete fascination. Lee Wooyeon had the power to instantly grab people’s attention. That was something that no skilled actor could have, no matter how hard he tried.

“Don’t you think the view here is nice?”

“What? … uh. Very good.”

Although he was embarrassed by the sudden prediction, CEO Kim agreed without a doubt because it was not wrong.

“I like looking at the sea from here. Especially at sunset. It’s the same scenery, but no matter how many times I see it, I never get tired of it.”

In response to Lee Wooyeon’s uncharacteristically emotional remarks, CEO Kim seriously wondered if the steak he ate for dinner was wrong.

“I like to walk on the beach, and although I don’t swim, I like to sit on the sand and watch people passing by. On rainy days, I sit on the sofa and read books while listening to the sound of rain for hours.”

The scene seemed to unfold before his eyes. A smile lingers in Lee Wooyeon’s eyes. Only then did CEO Kim realize that what Lee Wooyeon was talking about was not about himself.

“So I don’t think I can go anywhere for a while.”

It was a transformation that you would not believe even if you saw it with your own eyes and heard it with your ears. Lee Wooyeon, who he thought was the ruin of the world, had such a noble and gentle love.

“Think carefully. It will only take a moment for you to be forgotten in this career. If you don’t appear, the public’s interest will cool down faster than you think.”

“Is that what Lee Wooyeon is like?” he laughed.

“You won’t need a lot of money to maintain this kind of lifestyle.”

When he asked him to sell the last house left in Korea, he thought that maybe Lee Wooyeon had really poured everything he had into Inseop.

“If you leave Inseop here and only go back and forth and occasionally work on your projects… .”

“CEO.”

Lee Wooyeon’s voice was soft.

“Mr. Inseop, once every two or three weeks, he goes to his parents’ house and sleeps for a day or two.”

It took less than two hours to drive from here to Inseop’s house. He deliberately looked for a house that was neither too far nor too close to Inseop’s original home.

“And from that day on, I can’t sleep at all.”

“… … .”

“I really can’t do it without him now.”

Lee Wooyeon bitterly mocked himself.

CEO Kim said that he could not know from where to what extent the truth was true, so he could not just say this or that.

“… okay. Do whatever you want. But why do you want me to sell your house? Do I look that easy?”

The words flew out as if he was complaining. CEO Kim was very disappointed that Lee Wooyeon organized things like that and went to the United States overnight.

“It can’t be. I have never thought lightly of you, CEO.”

Lee Wooyeon’s voice as he said that was extremely friendly. CEO Kim felt his heart pounding.

Yes, people can change too. They say that if you love, you become a good person… CEO Kim thought.

“I was really mad at you, CEO, that I called you to make you suffer.”

“Ah, shit… what?”

“It was the CEO’s idea to tag Chae Yeonseo with me. Fuck, you didn’t forget, right?”

“… … .”

“Even if it’s true that my image has become shitty, I can’t get over the fact that Choi Inseop collapsed from stress and almost broke up with me because of it.”

The beer bottle in Lee Wooyeon’s hand tapped lightly on the railing. CEO Kim glanced down.

Will I be able to survive even if I fall into the sea?

“If you fall from here, you will die. If you survive, you’ll still be an asshole, so what can I do with your life?”

Lee Wooyeon said that as if reading CEO Kim’s thoughts and smiled as sweetly as a flower.

… After all, there is no way people can change that easily.

CEO Kim drank the rest of his beer in one go. No matter how many cold beers he drank, he felt like his fever was rising.

“What are you two talking about?”

Inseop asked, blinking his eyes as he looked at CEO Kim and Lee Wooyeon standing on the terrace. Lee Wooyeon was seen smiling.

“It looks like the CEO is swearing.”

Inseop looked outside with a worried expression at Manager Cha’s highly probable guess.

“Don’t worry. I’m not the kind of person who would care if I get criticized.”

“…Yes, but.”

Inseop muttered bitterly.

When Lee Wooyeon said he wanted to go to the United States and stay there for a while, Inseop expected about a month at most. There was a scandal that broke out because of Chae Yeonseo, so a break was necessary.

However, Lee Wooyeon settled all the contracts tied to him and chose to go to the United States. When Inseop heard about it later, he felt sorry and did not know what to do. It was clear that he had to pay a large penalty. Then Lee Wooyeon asked him to take responsibility for him from now on. Inseop nodded that he would of course do so. So, Inseop began translating a thesis with the help of a professor he met in Korea. Although it was only a small amount of money, it was enough for the two people to make a living.

“I’m worried that your relationship is going to worsen.”

“…I’ve never had a good time, so you really don’t have to worry about that.”

Manager Cha comforted Inseop with an extremely serious face.

“Hey, do you have any special plans for tomorrow?” 𝒷ℯ𝒹𝓃𝓸𝓿ℯ𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝓶

“No. Nothing special. Why?”

“Even around here….”

Before Inseop could finish his sentence, a small noise was heard from beneath his feet. Manager Cha’s eyes widened.

“Where did this guy come from all of a sudden? Do you have a cat?”

“Yes.”

Inseop smiled and rubbed the head of the cat stuck at his feet.

“But where have you been hiding and coming out now?”

“Because he’s scared. He wasn’t like that before.”

Inseop was always concerned that John, who used to show his belly because he liked seeing people, became very timid because of that incident. He didn’t know that he was like that because he followed Yun Ahreum’s family well, but after bringing him home, he was busy hiding whenever people saw him. Especially when Lee Wooyeon was next to him, he didn’t even try to come closer.

“John, say hello. This is the manager.”

Inseop picked up the cat and introduced it to Manager Cha.

“Cute!”

Hearts were drawn in Manager Cha’s eyes. He, who loves animals, held out his hand to hug the cat. Then John cried and jumped up and turned around.

“It’s okay, John. He’s a good person….”

The struggling cat escaped from Inseop’s hand and flew onto the table. After all, it was the direction the vase was placed. The vase fell with a loud crashing sound.

“John!”

“No!”

Inseop and Manager Cha simultaneously reached out and snatched the cat. The cat, who was caught by Manager Cha by a narrow margin, was so surprised that his tail was puffed out.

“Ha, I thought you were hurt.”

Manager Cha handed over the cat to Inseop. Inseop held the cat in his arms and began to comfort it.

“It’s okay, John. It’s okay.”

“This guy, if he gets hurt… Ah, Mr. Inseop!”

Manager Cha was surprised and pointed at Inseop’s feet. Inseop’s slippers were smeared red. The vase fell next to Inseop’s feet, and his skin seemed to be torn by shards of glass. Two people who heard the commotion outside also ran in.

“What happened? Is something broken?”

“Ah, that’s….”

Manager Cha fidgeted and looked down at Inseop’s feet. Lee Wooyeon walked forward.

“It’s okay. I wasn’t hurt too much….”

Lee Wooyeon wordlessly picked up the cat in Inseop’s arms and handed it over to Manager Cha like a piece of luggage. Then, he picked Inseop up and sat him down at the island table, took off his slippers, and began to check his condition.

“It’s not that bad. Just a little scratch.”

Even though Inseop tried hard to explain, Lee Wooyeon didn’t even seem to listen. After examining his bleeding feet carefully, he held out his hand.

“Please bring me a towel.”

“Towel? Okay.”

CEO Kim hurriedly ran to the bathroom and brought him a towel. Lee Wooyeon wrapped Inseop’s feet in a towel and then picked him up.

“Let’s go to the hospital.”

“No. You can just put a bandage on it.”

Lee Wooyeon looked up at Inseop without saying a word. When their eyes met, Inseop quietly nodded his head.

“I’ll go to the hospital and come back. I don’t know how long it will take, so you two can sleep. You don’t have to clean up anything that’s broken.”

Lee Wooyeon put his car keys and card in his pocket and spoke to Inseop this time.

“Hug my neck.”

“Huh? Over there….”

Inseop looked at the two people and frowned as if embarrassed.

“You promised.”

At Lee Wooyeon’s firm tone, Inseop had no choice but to lower his head and hug his neck. Lee Wooyeon disappeared, holding Inseop in his arms.

The two people left behind looked at the closed door for a long time with puzzled expressions.

“…CEO, did you just see Lee Wooyeons expression?”

“Mhmm.”

“I thought his personality had died, but it’s still the same. Oh man. You almost died.”

ManagerCha said, stroking the back of the trembling cat, whose tail was still puffy.

“Anyway, he’s been drinking. Is it okay for him to drive?”

“I’m sure he’s sober now.”

What CEO Kim saw was Lee Wooyeon examining Inseop’s wounds. At first glance, he had a calm demeanor, but his face was paler than that of an injured person and his hands were shaking.

“Are you sure we don’t have to clean it up?”

Manager Cha frowned as he looked at the glass fragments that had fallen on the floor.

“We have to clean it up. What if that little cat steps on it?”

Manager Cha put down the cat and nodded his head. The two men squatted down and began picking up the glass pieces one by one.

Lee Wooyeon did not return until late at night.
