She immediately understood that San was talking about his affair with Jane.

So, she quickly pulled down the blanket and sharply threw her words at him.

“Then what about the lipstick marks? The nail marks? The torn shirt?”

She hurled accusations at him, as if she had been waiting, but San didn’t seem to be greatly disturbed.

He had done nothing wrong, so there was no reason to be pricked.

“Perhaps you know about defensive wounds?”

“Defensive wounds?”

“I told you. We had a game.”

“Are you saying… Jane attacked you unilaterally?”

“What do I gain by lying to you?”

He nodded as he spoke.

“She’s not my type. I haven’t starved to death for a woman who isn’t my type.”

Despite saying all this, he suggested that she might believe him a little, but Kang couldn’t seem to withdraw her suspicious gaze.

In the end, as if driving a stake, San spoke.

“If I were a guy who enjoyed only appearances.”

“…”
“I probably should’ve eaten you first.”

It was a kind of innocence.

But without any warning, she, who had received the bombshell, turned red in the face.

“Who told you to eat me?!”

Kang, who shouted, flipped the blanket and lay down, her face still flushed.

Her face didn’t cool down.

Jane contacted her the very next day.

She had cooked for the first time in a while, and she asked if Kang hadn’t eaten yet, suggesting eating together.

It happened to be a day off, and since Sangyoung was at home, she talked about it, but Jane said that the more, the better.

At the same time, she didn’t forget to check if San was with her.

[Dash] So, is Mr. Hot Guy with you?

“The director is off today, and I know he went out.”

Because she heard that he would be vacating the house for business, she conveyed it as it was, and Jane’s voice seemed to be filled with disappointment.

[Dash] Oh, really? Well, there’s nothing we can do. If Honey likes it, tell me about my cooking later.

“I will.”

As a matter of courtesy, she answered and hung up.

Kang was already looking at the phone that had been hung up, contemplating.

‘Did you happen to know about defensive wounds?’

‘I told you. We had a game.’

She kept thinking about what he had said last night.

It was fortunate that she found out now.

Now that she knew San’s position clearly, she thought it would be better to convey his position properly to Jane.

“Wow, what’s going on? I’m seeing Jane for the first time, actually.”

Sangyoung, who knew nothing, just found it fascinating and tapped his foot.

Not long after, Jane appeared.

“Hey, Honey. Long time no see. How are you?”

With a pronunciation that seemed to have eaten a ton of butter again today, she cheerfully appeared, looking at Sangyoung and reacting intensely.

“Wow, what a mister cutie!”

Jane, who usually said anything with her unique friendliness, hugged Sangyoung left and right, patted his cheek, and made a humming sound while giving a Western-style greeting.

“Oh, my. Oh, my. This, really, two bodies in one frame.”

As if shaking like a paper doll, he moaned, buried in her ample chest.

A noisy greeting came to an end.

Sangyoung, with a flushed face, wiped his sweaty palm on his thigh and stretched it out.

“My name is Sangyoung Lee. I’m your fan. A real fan.”

Seeing her trying to converse by mobilizing all the English she knew, she laughed, forgetting her appearance, which was completely blackened because of her hometown being Chungcheongnam.

“Yeah. Nice to meet you.”

“I about your garlic press.”

“What?”

“The thing you used on your live broadcast. Crushing garlic. Garlic! Chabchab! I, I bought that. The past of buying. Bought. Hehe.”

“Oh, thank you, thank you. Did you also buy a potato peeler? The one for cutting potatoes.”

“Ah, I already have that… Haha.”

“No, no. The deal is set-to-set. It’s much cheaper to buy together.”

“If the one I’m using breaks, I’ll definitely buy it.”

“Even if it’s just words, thank you, sweet.”
Listening to a strange conversation where more than half of the words were in Korean, Kang let out a small laugh.

The two seemed to get along quite well.

The three gathered together sat side by side and ate the seafood dish that Jane had made.

She, who proudly claimed to have learned quite a bit about housekeeping from her mother, had some expectations, but honestly, the taste of the food was not great.

Undercooked, bland, and with a fishy smell.

However, thinking about the effort put into making the food, Kang ate it without complaining.

Sangyoung also seemed desperate for lemon, mirin, and salt, but he didn’t express it, pinching his thigh intensely.

Jane began to chatter about San not long after.

“One Manager Han, you know. The more I see him, the more he fits my style, right? He’s so sexy.”

“Eh? Do you know San?”

“Yes. He’s our Naver Hood, you know.”

“Ah…”

Sangyoung, who hadn’t heard anything, seemed a bit surprised, but he soon agreed to the word “neighbor.”

Seeing her scrutinizing Sangyoung’s reaction, Jane smirked.

“There was something more, do you want me to tell you?”

“Yes? What else happened?”

Maybe she was trying to talk about that night, so Kang tried to intervene, but her mouth was as fast and light as her touch.

“I visited him at night.”

“Where?”

“At Hot Guy’s House.”

“… San’s house? Why did you go there?”

“I wanted to sleep there.”

“Oh! Crazy…!”

Sangyoung’s face turned amazed at Jane’s bombshell statement that poured out without any pause.

Having barely swallowed the curses that were about to burst out, it seemed she had said all she wanted.

Sangyoung’s eyes, which had been looking at her with a favorable gaze throughout, froze tight from that moment.

“However, I kept thinking about it all night. Among the men I’ve met recently, he seems to be the best. Ah, just thinking about it again…”

At Jane’s speech that dangerously exceeded the limit, Kang subtly furrowed her brows, knowing the truth of that day.

Perhaps she thought she didn’t know about that day.

Though he had no intention of revealing the truth as he had his pride, it was excessive to brag about it to this extent.

From that moment, Sangyoung’s eyes and attitude, which had been admiring her with a friendly look all along, hardened noticeably.

“It kept coming to my mind all night. He’s probably the best among the men I’ve met recently. Ah, just thinking about it again…”

In response to Jane’s flamboyant language that crossed a dangerous line, Kang slightly wrinkled her forehead, piercing her with her knowing gaze.

Surprisingly, it was Sangyoung who broke the silence.

“It’s strange.”

“What’s strange?”

“It doesn’t seem like San’s style over there.”

“Really? Then what style does Manager Han like?”

“I don’t know. But it’s definitely not that.”

“What, what! Such nonsense! This Oppa is really funny!”

Jane laughed heartily.

Kang silently observed her in that state.

The Jane she had seen so far was a bright and cheerful person.

But that was it.

While she might become a good friend, Kang doubted whether she could be a good girlfriend to San.

No, she wasn’t even sure if she should continue getting involved with this person any further.

Regardless of her identity, she was a person with beliefs too different from her own.
Moreover, like she said, sincerity isn’t something you can see with your eyes, isn’t it? I felt that I could no longer read anything about Jane.

Kang, who had been pondering, quietly opened his mouth.

“Hey, Jane.”

“Yeah?”

Why did you want to get married?

About to ask that, he changed the question.

“Do you have genuine feelings for Manager Han?”

“I do. I want to sleep with him.”

“No, aside from that, do you seriously want to meet and get to know him?”

“I don’t know about that yet, but I want to taste him.”

The words didn’t get through.

Sangyoung now had a completely expressionless face, devoid of any affection towards her.

However, Jane, who didn’t care at all about how he saw her, stared intently at Kang and asked.

“Can I ask you now?”

“Ask what?”

“Honey, do you happen to like Manager Han?”
