“Well, that is a secret.” Se-Young sheepishly smiled at him. She had a lot of money in her account but she never used it as she always had a hunch that one day in her life, she would need a large amount of money.
Dong-Hoon shrugged his shoulders and smiled at her. “And by the way, I never agreed to act as your girlfriend in front of Ms. Min.” she crossed her arms.
“That crazy woman will kill me, I really need your help for that.” he pleaded, showing his puppy eyes to melt her heart and she flipped her hair, clearing her throat and said, “That... I will decide after looking at the condition myself.” she grinned, feeling good to act sassy in front of him after a long time.
…
Yoo-Na came towards Ji-Hoon's car walking elegantly in her fish-cut A-line black gown. Her whole gown was hugging her body perfectly with long sleeves, having fluffy frills at the end of them.
Since they met, it was the first time that Yoo-Na’s whole body was covered while having a low chignon bun was enhancing her business look. “First you asked me to be your date and now the matching colors, gosh how much happiness I am going to get more. I think I will die today.” she placed a hand on her chest, acting dramatic or more like, being herself.
Ji-Hoon slightly chuckled. “You are looking really... elegant.” he nodded his head in satisfaction looking at her from top to bottom. “Oh my gosh, I am finally ascending today. I got a compliment from the one and only Shim Ji-Hoon.” her happiness was showing on her face as her cheeks were popping out with all those smiles.
She was being all silly and happy, this was her new side Ji-Hoon was seeing but soon she got to her original flirty self, how could she miss such a good chance to flirt with her Mr. Handsome. “Well, you are looking smoking hot Mr. Shim as always.” she winked at him.
“I will take that compliment today as you are again helping me.” he nodded his head and moved aside while opening the door for her to enter, like a true gentleman he was.
“I am not helping you, I am helping myself.” she said getting in. She really wanted to get close to him and could not leave such a golden chance. “Sure.” Ji-Hoon said and closed the door.
…
Dong-Hoon and Se-Young entered the elevator as the event was held onto the top floor’s hall. 'There is nothing to be nervous about, this damn chubby woman, why she had to say all those things to me.' Se-Young was cursing her best friend to put those things in her mind.
Although there was a lift attendant but still, she could not help getting sweaty and before the gates completely glided closed, they were opened again and there were Min siblings standing outside, Eun-Bi’s already crappy mood became more irritable looking at them.
She scoffed entering the elevator along with Eun-Woo and his demeanor was the same since the one causing problem to Dong-Hoon was his sister and not him. “Hey man, it has been so long.” he gave Dong-Hoon a side hug, perfectly knowing that Eun-Woo was not someone who would do something shabby Dong-Hoon hugged him back, patting his back.
Pulling away from the hug he introduced Se-Young to him but actually, he wanted Eun-Bi to hear that again. “Meet my girlfriend, Lee Se-Young. Se-Young he is my friend Min Eun-Woo and his sister Min Eun-Bi.” he smirked towards Eun-Bi and put his hands around Se-Young’s waist.
Eun-Bi rolled her eyes at the fact that he was acting all fine in front of Eun-Woo while Se-Young’s heart was beating at a higher rate with all the epinephrine and norepinephrine released into the bloodstream as she again cursed Yoon-Hwa to corrupt her mind with that stuff.
“I remember you from that day in the Hotel, nice to meet you again.” Eun-Woo shook his hands with her but Eun-Bi looked away from them. Eun-Woo nudged her and glared at her and signaled to greet them. “Hello.” she just gave a mere glance to them and then again looked away.
The gate glided open and she left not looking back at them.
Eun-Woo cursed his sister under his breath and then awkwardly laugh at the couple in front of him. “HahaHAahHAah, she is just like that. Will see you later.” he said and ran away after his sister.
Se-Young cleared her throat loudly to gain Dong-Hoon’s attention and when he looked at her, she pointed her chin towards his arm which was wrapped around her waist.
He raised his eyebrows not understanding what she meant so she again pointed her chin towards his arm and he again raised his eyebrows. She internally facepalmed herself. “Your hand...” she then again pointed her chin towards his arm.
“Oh, this... I should hold onto my girlfriend in front of others or they might think I am available.” saying that he dragged her out of the elevator as the lift attendant was really feeling troubled with the stoppage but what Dong-Hoon did not know was that he was having that strange effect on Se-Young that she had on him, his presence made her flustered just as her presence did with him but she still decided to play along for today to repay for his kindness but she knew that her heartbeat will not go down easily today.
...
Now it was the time for Yoo-Na and Ji-Hoon to be alone in the elevator (ignore the poor lift attendant). She moved closer to him making their whole arms touch and Ji-Hoon slightly moved away and she moved towards him again.
Suddenly out of nowhere, he was trapped between her and the elevator’s wall as she tucked her loosened hair on her cheeks behind her ears.
Ji-Hoon just comforted himself in his heart saying that he put himself in this situation. “We are alone in this elevator, think what kind of advantage I can take.” she bit her lower lip slightly, in an amorous way and pulled him closer to her, grabbing his tie.
