Secretary Gwanggong's Survival Diary-Chapter 50

My thorough preparation skills are starting to feel a bit excessive. It was a talent I didn’t know I had because I was trying to survive by Yoon Tae-oh’s side, who was far from compassionate or considerate, but this time it was really useless.

The villa was fully equipped with necessities for two people to last at least two weeks. Thanks to that, there was absolutely no need to go outside or ask for help. Even the new clothes he had prepared for his beta fit me perfectly.

“CEO, is it really okay to go out now...?”

“What if I suddenly get a rut? Are you telling me to get a rut while I’m working at the company?”

“It’s already been five days....”

That’s really stubborn. Yoon Tae-oh seems to be trying to fill up the whole week to go out, just like I said. At first, I thought Yoon Tae-oh’s judgment that he might get a rut at any time wasn’t completely wrong. It was just a hormonal issue, so there was plenty of room for a few days of error.

“And if Rut is coming, don’t you usually feel it a few days before the dominant alpha?”

“This is the first time the cycle has been broken like this, so maybe there are no warning signs?”

“...That’s true, but....”

“Also, Secretary Baek doesn’t seem to be in a position to speak out like this.”

Suddenly, he turned his gaze to look at Yoon Tae-oh, who seemed like he was going to find fault again. As expected, his face was filled with pitifulness.

“...What, again....”

“I don’t know if he wants to go out or stay longer, but just one thing.”

Yoon Tae-oh said as he picked up the remote control. Then he turned off the movie he was watching.

“Oh...! There’s not much time left....”

“I didn’t know you’d even make French fries ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) yourself. And you’re going to watch a movie.”

“...You said you haven’t seen this movie, sir....”

“Secretary Baek understands people’s words so easily. To be exact, he said he’s never seen a movie.”

Yeah, kid. That’s what he said.

I wondered why Yoon Tae-oh was always so cold-hearted, but now I know another reason. I don’t know if it’s true, but he said he hasn’t seen a movie since he became an adult. Considering his character, it’s understandable. How could he have ever been on a proper date? The theater is a must-visit for dates.

“That’s why I said I could go alone....”

“If you look closely, it seems like he’s enjoying the current situation. He doesn’t seem to want to go out at all.”

“Me? How could he...?”

“He eats three meals a day, makes snacks twice a day, and empties the fridge. He reads books during the day and sleeps, and watches movies at night and sleeps. Who wants to go out?”

“.......”

I won’t make excuses. In fact, it was a situation similar to a real vacation. This time, he was really resting for several days in a quiet villa, not at home, without any external disturbances. Moreover, since it was a place prepared according to Yoon Tae-oh’s taste, each and every ingredient and item was luxurious to the point of being excessive for me, so it was like visiting a top-class private villa. It was an even more perfect vacation after I even told Kang Seok-ho to hide my absence for a few more days.

“...CEO?”

“What.”

“I have no choice but to stay here...? I have to help you so that you don’t feel uncomfortable. How can I let you clean and cook with these precious hands...? I have to stay by your side while you stay.”

I grabbed Yoon Tae-oh’s ignorant hand and said something I didn’t mean. I don’t understand either. I know I have to get out of here quickly, but I don’t want to. It’s too comfortable. Housework is something I used to do, so it’s not that hard.

“Well, that’s true.”

“Oh, think about it. How uncomfortable would it have been if CEO had been here alone?”

“I can’t say no.”

Why does the kid acknowledge my need?

“And what you mentioned last time is also bothering me. Who might have contacted Kang Hae-woon....”

“I guess you just figured that out.”

Yoon Tae-oh also spoke without giving the subject. This quick-witted kid might also suspect that the person who contacted Kang Hae-woon was the general secretary. If the old man was just trying to blow me off using the mistake in preparing for the rut as an excuse, then that’s fortunate, but if not, then I can’t leave Yoon Tae-oh alone.

“Well, I didn’t expect Si-eon to be of any help in the first place, so don’t show any unnecessary enthusiasm.”

I know, kid. If someone barged in, I was just going to yell loudly.

“Then just say something outside...”

“Don’t act without my instructions. This isn’t something Si-eon can do either.”

What the heck. It seems that unlike ‘Secretary Kim,’ ‘Si-eon’ is just a concept similar to a carnivore. Yoon Tae-oh didn’t seem to want to talk about this story any further, so I decided to change the conversation. Well, even if he was Yoon Tae-oh, that sly old man wouldn’t be able to touch him carelessly.

“...But, how did you send me ruts before...?”

Thinking about it, I was curious. Yoon Tae-oh sent me ruts countless times. Once every three months, he would receive ruts up to four times a year. Each time, he would spend a few days with Beta at a quiet villa.

“Why are you asking me that so confidently...?”

“No... The CEO is a bit like that, isn’t he...?”

“Baek Si-eon.”

“Yes, yes...?”

At that moment, Yoon Tae-oh’s voice dropped to a low tone. Why is this happening all of a sudden...? The guy who had been jokingly chatting with me a moment ago was glaring at me as if he was going to kill me right away and calling my name repeatedly. He was still wearing his nametag.

“How would Si-eon know that?”

“Well, well... It’s obvious...?”

What are you talking about. Have you ever washed a towel, or run a vacuum cleaner once...? Do you really have to see that to know?

“Ha, this is driving me crazy.”

Yoon Tae-oh was smiling, but he let out a snort through his nostrils as if he was annoyed.

“I didn’t know you were such an open-minded person.”

“...Huh...?”

“I’ve never heard anyone say I can’t have sex, no matter where I go. Especially when I’m on a rut.”

“Sex, what...?”

Where is our conversation going right now...? Where on earth did the conversation start to go wrong...? Why do I have to listen to Yoon Tae-oh’s bedtime stories... .

My mind, which was about to fly off to some faraway place due to the strange flow of the conversation, returned to reality when I felt the tickling sensation on my palm.

“That was so presumptuous. How dare you look at me? And even more so, you thought that while looking at me.”

One of Yoon Tae-oh’s index fingers tickled my palm. When I came to my senses, my two hands were still wrapped around one of Yoon Tae-oh’s hands. Yoon Tae-oh was tapping my palm with his index finger.

... This is a habit that comes out when he’s worried...? I quickly let go of his hand and opened my mouth. I had to say something to clear up his misunderstanding.

“CEO, CEO! I think you misunderstood something. I believe that the CEO’s sex skills are....”

“That kind of thing?”

“No! I, I believe that his skills are obviously top-notch and very good! What I was talking about was cooking and cleaning...? How did you clean and cook in a villa without any staff during the rut? That’s what I was talking about....”

Silence fell on the living room for a moment. Yoon Tae-oh looked at me without blinking as if time had stopped, and I locked eyes with him, hoping that he would convey my sincerity.

Kid, you seem like you’d be really good at sex. Your arms are thick and your thighs are firm... and what’s in between... I heard that dominant alphas are usually that big and strong... .

“I need to wash up, now.”

“Oh, yeah...! I, I think I should wash up too... Why is it so hot?”

Without looking back, he ran into the bathroom in my room. I realized that I had washed up before watching the movie a while ago when hot water poured down on my head. I don’t know why that crazy bastard keeps talking nonsense and making people lose their minds.

I swear to God, there have been a few times when I’ve casted a suspicious gaze at Yoon Tae-oh... No, it’s been a while, but it was just like an instinct that draws your eyes to pretty things.

But I’ve never been curious about anything more than that. How passionately did you have sex during the rut... I didn’t want to know what he was doing, but useless fantasies started to swirl around in my head because of Yoon Tae-oh’s words.

“You crazy bastard....”

It can’t be done. I have to wash with cold water. I have to take another pheromone regulator. It’s hot, really.

❖ ❖ ❖

I took two showers in the evening alone. My head was hit with cold water that made my head freeze, so my surprised heart calmed down a little. When I think about it, it’s not that surprising. It’s just a story about something that everyone else does, so I don’t know why I was so flustered.

“...CEO...?”

And thanks to my head feeling relaxed, I remembered that I hadn’t prepared Yoon Tae-oh for bed yet. Even if I did prepare, it wasn’t much. I brought him a bottle of water and checked the condition of the bedding again. It was just checking the temperature, humidity, and oxygen saturation in the bedroom.

Judging from the quietness of the room, I think Yoon Tae-oh hasn’t come out of the bathroom yet. While he was washing up, I quickly checked and went out, but the light on the nightstand felt a bit too bright. I don’t have a light meter, so it’s not accurate, but it seems to be a little brighter than his bedroom at home. I guess I have a beastly instinct. Someone more monstrous than me would definitely notice the subtle difference, so I manipulated the cylindrical light.

“What the heck, why are the colors changing and all this crap....”

This is why smart products are a problem these days. It’s harder to manually manipulate something that isn’t connected to a phone. When I tried to just lower the brightness, the light colors became colorful. When I pressed another button, this time all the lights in the room went out.

“... This is driving me crazy, seriously... ugh!”

I moved too quickly and hit my knee on the nightstand. It hurt, damn it... . I think either the nightstand or my knees were broken.

The light seemed to have gone completely crazy, and no matter which button I pressed, the brightness in the room wouldn’t return to its original state. It was when I was finally trying to walk in the pitch-black darkness to find the main light switch.

Whew- A familiar yet unfamiliar scent mixed in with my swallowed breath. It was a scent that couldn't be unfamiliar. At home, too, it was the same body product I used to wash myself before. But the smell shouldn’t be this strong... .

“What is this?”

Yoon Tae-oh’s voice burrowing into my ear was too close.

“Did you come to check it out yourself? That thing earlier.”

The peppermint scent mixed with the breath I was swallowing, and every time he opened his mouth, hot heat was transferred to my earlobes. To make matters worse, a hand came out from behind and grabbed my wrist.
