“Yes. For now, it’s over. I think it would be nice to do the rest in Korea. I want to live with Mom and Dad now, and I miss my brother.”

“Does Hajoon know you’re coming?”
“No. My brother doesn’t know yet. I’m planning to surprise him.”
Siwoo showed a playful expression.

“Then I need to call Hajoon to come home today.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Hyeseon grabbed her mobile phone.

At that moment, Hajoon was sitting at his desk, fiddling with his lips.

A kiss that was not part of the plan.

Once his lips had risen, they didn’t know how to come down.

Then. The mobile phone on the desk rang, and Hajoon’s gaze turned to the screen.

[Mrs. Hyeseon]

The smile that hung at the edge of his lips disappeared in an instant as soon as he confirmed the name.

Hajoon hurriedly pressed the call button.

“Yes, Mrs. Hyeseon.”
“Oh, Hajoon, are you very busy?”
“No, not at all. Please, go ahead.”
“I just wondered if you have any plans this evening.”
He asked back, puzzled by Hyeseon’s sudden inquiry about his schedule.

“This evening? I don’t have any specific plans.”
“That’s a relief. Then, would you like to have dinner with your mother and father tonight? Jihun will be there too.”
It was unusual for them to invite him for dinner other than on Hyeseon and Hyunseong’s birthdays.

“Is there something going on?”
It was a natural question regarding Hyeseon’s unusual behavior.

“No, nothing at all. I just thought we could have dinner.”
Although he thought there must be some reason, Hajoon did not ask any further.

Regardless of what the reason was, Hajoon could not refuse her invitation.

“Yes, then I will see you this evening.”
“Alright. See you at dinner.”
“Yes, please take care.”
It was indeed a very polite conversation.

The conversation was so stiff, it could have been believed to be workrelated if Hyeseon hadn’t mentioned ‘mother’ and ‘father’.

As soon as the call ended, Hajoon immediately dialed Jihun.

[Did the madam ask you to come home?] As soon as the call connected, Jihun spoke as if he had already expected Hajoon’s call.

“Is there something going on?”
[Well, I did ask. Apparently, someone sent fresh cooking ingredients. She thought we could have dinner with that, so she contacted us.] “I see. Okay. Let’s leave together at 6 o’clock.”
After ending the call with Jihun, Hajoon picked up his mobile phone again.

It was to inform Su Ah that he had dinner plans for the evening.

[Miss Su Ah, it seems like I have to visit my family home today.] Upon receiving Hajoon’s message, Su Ah immediately replied.

[Is there something going on?] [No, nothing like that. It’s just that they suddenly invited me for dinner. I’m sorry.] [What are you sorry for?] [Because I can’t have dinner with you.] Pfft. A small chuckle escaped through Su Ah’s lips.

It seemed that Hajoon still didn’t know that it was impossible to have dinner together every day, even for newly dating couples.

[You don’t have to feel sorry at all. It’s a family dinner. Don’t worry and eat lots of delicious food, even my share.] After sending the message, Su Ah immediately typed another one.

[If you feel sorry, why don’t you show me your face before you go?] She felt a little disappointed at the thought that she wouldn’t see Hajoon’s face again today, hence the sent message.

[Shall I go back to the document storage room?] Su Ah’s face flushed as she read Hajoon’s message.

Was the word ‘document storage room’ this suggestive?

This was serious.

Now, just hearing the word ‘document storage room’ seemed to bring back the time she had spent there with Ha Joon.

[No, I’m going to the first floor lobby to buy coffee. I’ll take the elevator.] [Do you want to drink coffee? Shall I buy it for you?] As expected, Ha Joon gave a bizarre answer without fully understanding her intention.

Offering to buy her coffee. She wondered under what pretext the vice president would buy coffee for a new employee.

The more she thought about it, the more absurd it seemed.

[If Mr. Ha Joon takes the elevator down, I’ll time it right and get on the same elevator. That way, I can see you even if it’s just for a moment.] While typing the message, Su Ah was surprised at how naturally her actions flowed like water.

The person who had insisted on never acknowledging each other at work, who had stressed that it must remain a secret, had long disappeared.

She even felt a worried heart, wondering if he might think she was being too forward.

[That’s a good idea. I wanted to drink coffee too. I’ll go to the elevator now.] Upon receiving Ha Joon’s message, Su Ah leaned slightly towards Heesu, who was sitting next to her, and whispered quietly.

“I’ll go to the restroom for a bit.”
“Alright. Go ahead.”
Su Ah quickly got up from her seat and left the office.

By the time she arrived at the elevator, another message had arrived.

[I’m currently taking the second elevator down.] Su Ah swiftly positioned herself in front of the second elevator.

A moment later, the elevator stopped on the floor where Su Ah was, and the doors slowly opened.

There were already many employees inside the elevator.

However, finding Ha Joon among the many employees was not a difficult task.

Thanks to his towering stature that stood out.

Su Ah shifted her gaze towards the interior of the elevator, flashing a soft smile at Ha Joon, who was looking at her.

“Excuse me. I’m getting in.”
Su Ah swiftly wove through the employees and quickly moved towards the back where Ha Joon was standing.

It was possible due to her petite figure.

Watching Su Ah squeeze her way through the crowd of employees and stand next to him, Ha Joon couldn’t take his eyes off her, finding her actions incredibly adorable.

Ha Joon lowered his gaze to look down at Su Ah, and Su Ah lifted her head to look up at Ha Joon.

Their eyes met in the air, and at the same time, smiles spread across both their faces.

Just then, Su Ah felt a warm body temperature in her hand.

As if she had anticipated it, she deeply accepted the soft touch of Ha Joon’s hand as it slipped between her fingers.

There was no doubt that the crowded elevator was an excellent place for the two of them.
