Kapitel 174: Chapter 86.2
Within a few seconds of receiving the younger brother's notice, a KakaoTalk message came from Lee Yu-na too.
-President. I want to go for a drive. When are you free to do so?
–Shall we go now?
"Um..."
'This is weird. I wasn't nervous while waiting for an answer to my confession, so why is my heart beating so fast right now?'
–I don't mind.
-It'll take 30-40 minutes to get there. I'll call you when I get to the front of your house, so come down then.
-Okay.
"Let's get ready then."
Hyunwoo Lee jumped out of bed.
The wind lifted the blanket, exposing Moon Hye-ji's breasts and pubic hair.
However, Lee Hyeon-woo was no longer interested in her body.
After covering her with just a blanket, he went into the bathroom.
***
"Hyung! Are you here?"
When he arrived at the villa, Lee Ji-hoon and Lee Yu-na were waiting for him.
'Am I seeing things or is Lee Ji-hoon way more welcoming than Lee Yu-na right now?'
"Oh, Jihoon-ah. I see you so often but I'm sorry about today again. What should I do?"
"Ha ha, hyung. I'm not that stupid. The two of you are dating. I have no intention of trying to barge in between. Otherwise, my sister might really kill me... Aww!"
"Hey! Stop talking nonsense and get back in quickly! You've said hello already!"
"Ah! Hyung! Do you see what I mean? This is my sister's true nature...! Nhha!"
Despite Lee Yu-na's act of violence, Lee Ji-hoon stood in the same spot.
Hyeon-Woo Lee thought he knew why.
Hyeonu Lee, being quick-witted, immediately opened up his wallet.
'This kid really stole 500,000 won from me with a few kakaotalk texts. He is too greedy… this brother-in-law of mine.'
Still, he couldn't help but take out ten 50,000 won bills from his wallet.
"Thank you."
"Ah, Chairman. You don't have to give it! I mean, I received plenty of pocket money today."
"It's okay. You must be bored at home alone. You should order something delicious."
"Yes! President! You have a big heart."
Lee Ji-hoon quickly ran away from Yu-na's continued violence.
Even as he entered the villa, he did not forget to hit Lee Hyeon-woo with a brotherly compliment.
"Cute."
"Eh? That guy?"
"Why? Don't you think so too? He's a guy, but he's friendly. I get a lot of aegyo vibes."
"Ugh, that's gross."
"You probably think that because you guys are siblings. Shall we go for a drive then? Is there a place you want to go?"
"Ah! I didn't think of that. Sorry."
"What do you have to be sorry about? Rather, aren't you happy? Since you asked me to go for a drive because you wanted to see me."
Flames bursting from her brain—
If it was a cartoon or animation, it would probably be this kind of image that would have been used.
Lee Hyun-woo's words made Lee Yu-na's cheeks turn red in an instant.
She had just brought up the idea of a drive to answer his confession.
'Could it be that he interpreted it that way?'
This was an ambiguous situation and she couldn't tell whether he was right or not.
At the end of the day, she was not immune to what he had said and couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
"That, that, uh, let's go!"
"Haha. Okay. Let's go."
'Yuna's reactions are so cute.'
Hyunwoo Lee burst out laughing.
He was worried that the corners of his mouth would get stuck near his ears from smiling too much.
"Should we go to Cheonggyecheon today? I feel like taking a little walk. Hey Yuna, how about you?" [T/N: 10.9-kilometre-long stream and public space in downtown Seoul, South Korea.]
"I-I like that too. I want to walk."
Lee Yu-na, sitting in the passenger seat, hesitated.
She looked like she had something to say.
Lee Hyun-woo drove the car smoothly out of the villa area and reached out to the seat next to him the moment they were on the road.
Her soft hand was caught in his.
"Ah... !"
*Kong-dak-dak-dak! Pounding! Pounding!*
The sound of her heart beating was so intense that he could hear it in his ears.
But he didn't know whose heartbeat it was he could hear.
'Why?'
Lee Hyun-woo, who had sleekly reached out his hand, was also affected by the atmosphere and could not continue speaking.
He was excited.
He was too excited.
'So… is this love?'
Even if it was just them holding hands, it seemed like something in his brain kept spurting out a lot of hormones.
"..."
That was the same mechanism affecting her too.
She was unable to exhale after taking a breath.
She was just too nervous.
Even when they had gone on the last drive...
No.
It had been like this the last time they held hands at the Namsan Tower.
Her heart was pounding and she was too nervous to even say anything.
And after his confession that night, her memories of the time there seemed to have disappeared, because she just couldn't remember anything.
"Ahaha... We are being weird. We haven't said anything. Don't you think so? I think it's the first time I've ever driven so stiff."
"Huh? Isn't that dangerous?"
"There aren't that many cars, so it's not too dangerous. I guess it's a little riskier than relaxing and driving. Don't worry though. I drive well."
Lee Hyeon-woo was the first to speak.
He also liked the idea of holding her hand without either of them having to speak.
But right now, he just wanted to listen to her talk.
Wasn't this situation supposed to be a prelude to his confession being accepted?
"Excuse me... phew..."
Before long, Lee Yu-na came to her final decision.
She exhaled her caught breath and her cheeks relaxed.
Then, she parted her lips.
"President."
"Hm?"
"This is about the confession you made the other day. I will try to answer that now."
"Uh. Talk. I am listening."
'Fuck. I'm shaking. Why am I shaking when I already know the answer?'
Lee Hyun-woo couldn't understand what was going on with his body.
If his hand hadn't been holding the steering wheel, it would be shaking badly.
'Oh, shit.'
He was holding Yuna's hand with his other right now.
'Wouldn't it be just too embarrassing if she feels my hand trembling?'
His heart was racing like crazy.
It pumped faster than the engine of a 10-cylinder sports car.
"...Yes."
Lee Yu-na had said the word quietly as if whispering.
However, Hyunwoo Lee, who had been concentrating on her voice, could make out the word she had said.
And then, the bells of happiness seemed to chime in his head.
