Seung Joon was taken aback when he stopped by Tae Hyuk’s office to ask him to dinner, only to find Tae Hyuk standing in front of the mirror, fussing with his hair.

Tae Hyuk, of all people, primping in front of a mirror!

This was a sight to behold.

Seung Joon burst into the room and announced loudly,

“Are you meeting a girl? Who is she? Is she pretty?”

Tae Hyuk glared at Seung Joon and coldly told him to mind his own business, then picked up the jacket that was hanging on the coat rack.

Just as he was about to rush out of his office, Seung Joon blocked the door with a pitiful expression on his face.

“Hey, don’t just meet pretty girls yourself, introduce me to some.”

Tae Hyuk was on the verge of cursing at Seung Joon, who was being even more annoying than usual.

He’s being a pain in the neck right now, and he’s asking for introductions?

“Move. I don’t have time to deal with you.”

Tae Hyuk pushed Seung Joon’s arm away and walked down the hallway.

Seung Joon, left alone, watched Tae Hyuk’s retreating figure and pulled out his phone to make a call.

“Ah! It seems Tae Hyuk has other plans.”

[What plans?]

“He’s not the type to tell me straight up, you know.”

Seung Joon didn’t honestly tell Yoon Ina that Tae Hyuk was clearly going on a date.

Because he knew she still had lingering feelings for Tae Hyuk.

There was no need to hurt her by saying it outright.

Seung Joon ended his call with Yoon Ina and stared at the now empty hallway where Tae Hyuk had left.

Suddenly, he remembered something Tae Hyuk had said while they were drinking.

‘Do you know Moon Na Young, the firstyear resident in our department?’

Surely not.

But he wouldn’t have fallen for a resident who just started right after he returned to the hospital, right?

Seung Joon felt uneasy and decided to call his sister, Seung Hee.

“I’ll treat you to dinner. Come out with Moon Na Young.”

It didn’t seem like a bad idea to give Moon Na Young a headsup.

But Seung Hee said she couldn’t come out because she was on duty.

“Then send Moon Na Young alone.”

[Are you crazy?]

He was called crazy by his younger sister for trying to look out for her.

When Na Young received a message from Seung Hee complaining about their brother, she didn’t think Seung Joon was crazy.

In fact, having dinner with him seemed like a rather good idea.

Seung Joon was the older brother of her close friend, and he was a colleague of Professor Choi Tae Hyuk.

She was a bit worried that things might get awkward if it was just her and Tae Hyuk, but if Seung Joon was there, that definitely wouldn’t happen.

So, Na Young decided to call Seung Joon first.

[So you were the one having dinner with Choi Tae Hyuk?]

However, Oh Seung Joon showed a surprised reaction to her dinner invitation.

No, it seemed he was surprised that she and Professor Choi Tae Hyuk were eating together.

Na Young wondered if she should have contacted him first, but she couldn’t lie and say no now.

“I made a lot of mistakes with Professor Choi. So I’m asking him to look at it a bit. Please take my side, Professor Oh.”
[So you’re buying dinner because Choi Tae Hyuk is your supervisor?] “Yes, of course. How can a resident learn if they are disliked by the supervisor?”
Na Young was slightly embarrassed, and she started to explain in detail.

[I understand. I will take responsibility and sort out the relationship between you and Professor Choi.] Sorting out?

Something too grandiose came out of Oh Seung Joon’s mouth, and Na Young became slightly uneasy.

Should she have sought Professor Choi Tae Hyuk’s consent before calling Oh Seung Joon?

It should be okay.

After all, she was the one paying for the meal.

Tae Hyuk, who arrived first at the meeting place, checked the time on his wristwatch.

He had arrived a bit early due to hurrying for Oh Seung Joon, but he didn’t mind.

He thought that waiting like this wasn’t bad either.

He generally hated waiting for someone, but not this time.

Although the atmosphere would be completely different from when they met at the club because she said she would buy dinner due to the relationship between the supervisor and the resident, Tae Hyuk was still looking forward to his meeting with her.

However, he had to be careful. Not to let any personal feelings spring out.

For the time being, he had to play the role of a professor to her.

With modesty and dignity.

Thump.

As someone lightly tapped his shoulder, Tae Hyuk naturally thought it was Mun Na Young and turned around with a smile, only to see Oh Seung Joon standing there, and his expression immediately soured.

“Are you a stalker! Why are you following me all the way here!”
Seeing him instantly getting angry, Oh Seung Joon also looked taken aback.

The look on Choi Tae Hyuk’s face when he turned around was clearly that of a man on a date.

If he hadn’t seen it himself, he would never have believed that Choi Tae Hyuk could act this way.
