Kibum woke up after few hours. He looked up to see the high ceiling and turned his head to the left to see Mr. Jeon busy reading some documents. It was the same scene as yesterday.Â
Kibum saw the aromatherapy bottle had been closed tight. He didn't know what he missed when he was unconscious, but there must be something between Taewoo and Mr. Jeon.Â
Taewoo was lecherous, unrestrained, evil, and shameless by nature. Kibum didn't even think that Mr. Jeon and Taewoo would be able to speak civilly to each other, "Sir, may I know what happened when I was unconscious?"
Junho didn't move his eyes from the documents, and he replied, "I have a talk with him. It's something I want to learn from him."
"But'¦ Taewoo is very unrestrained'¦ what did he do?"Â
"He did nothing. We're just having a discussion together. It is also quite civil. He is not as evil as you think," Junho said. Kibum got even more suspicious.
'Did I just heard Mr. Jeon defending Taewoo?'
"Besides'¦" Junho put down his paper and then stared at Kibum with his deep, domineering gaze, "Taewoo told me a lot about you. That you are a hard worker, and you have been struggling to find a stable job because of your condition. I respect your bravery to apply and work here, Secretary Kim."
Kibum's heart skipped for a moment. He never got a compliment for his hard work and struggle in his life. And suddenly, his cold boss complimented him like this? Was this a trick from Taewoo?
"Sir'¦ did Taewoo really tell you that?" Kibum was unsure. He would never think that someone as evil as Taewoo would spare some kind words. If something didn't benefit him, then he wouldn't do it. That was Taewoo's motto.
"Yes," Junho replied.Â
'¦
"Sir, I will return back to my desk," Kibum said. He didn't want to stay in this office for too long. He felt uncomfortable, especially after inhaling that aromatherapy. He wanted to ask more about what Mr. Jeon and Taewoo did when he was asleep, but Mr. Jeon already replied that nothing happened except few discussions. It was a sign that he shouldn't inquire more about this.
Kibum stood from the sofa and walked out, "Wait!"
Kibum turned his back and responded, "Yes, sir. Do you want me to do something?"
"'¦ Are you free after work?" Junho asked.
"Yes, sir, I usually return home after work. Is there anything I can do? Based on your schedule, there is no other meeting for today," Kibum took out his schedule planner to check again, but he still found nothing.
"I have a dinner. You must come with me," Junho said.Â
"But sir, you have no dinner scheduled for tonight. Is this an urgent business dinner?" Kibum prepared to write in his schedule.
"No, it's not business dinner," Junho stood from his chair, and then he walked to Kibum and snatched his planner. Junho pushed Kibum to the wall and supported his body with one hand on the wall, "It's just a regular dinner, only you and me."
"But'¦"
"You cannot refuse. This is an order, have dinner with me."
***
Junho and Kibum were now sitting in a fine-dining restaurant. There were plenty of empty seats, but Junho fully booked the whole restaurant for the night, only for two of them. It made Kibum slightly uncomfortable.Â
"Sir, is this really alright?"Â
"Hm? What?" Junho wiped his lips with a tissue. He was enjoying his dinner. He glanced at Kibum, who hadn't touched his dinner at all, "Is the food not your taste? I will order the chef to make you another food."
"N'No, it's not that, sir'¦" Kibum gulped as he looked around the empty restaurant, "Is it really necessary to book the whole restaurant for the night?"
"Yes. I don't like eating with many people around. Besides, this restaurant is co-owned by me. So I just moved the guests tonight to another restaurant not far from here, with compensation, of course."
Stunned by Mr. Jeon's answer, Kibum felt that something was very wrong with Mr. Jeon, "Sir, why do you want me to accompany you? Is this an important talk about Jeon Group? But I'm just a secretary. My opinion doesn't matter."
pαпᵈα-noνɐ1·сoМ Yunyu sighed. Just like what the character background described, Kibum was a very insecure man. He did not believe that something good would fall upon him, as he kept victimizing himself as a bland, uninteresting guy who wouldn't get anything.
[This guy'¦ goddamn, he is so dull. He is that type of man who would intentionally hit himself on the toe and then cry because life is so unfair to him.]
[Pupa: Well, he is still the master of this world, just like Taewoo.]
[Can I get Taewoo all for myself? If only Kibum and Taewoo was not in the same body, my blissful life with Taewoo will be legendary.]
[Pupa: Then you will get Junze - Ronghui case once more. Knowing your horrible romancing capability, I won't be surprised if something suddenly went very, very wrong.]
[Eeee'¦ Pupa, this is the sixth world already. Please have more faith in me!]
"This is not about a business meeting, nor about the urgent task. I take you on dinner because I want us to get closer," Junho replied.Â
"Sir'¦ you are acting unusual tonight. I am not an interesting person, nor I have good background to earn your attention. Do you want'"
Since Kibum refused to believe, Junho took Kibum's hand and kissed the back of Kibum's hand and said, "Taewoo told me about you. He told me everything that sparks my interest in you. So I took the chance to approach you first. This is my true intention, Secretary Kim."
"'¦"Â
Kibum was speechless when he saw the overbearing Mr. Jeon suddenly kissed his hand, even went as far as confessing that he was interested in him. Mr. Jeon was not the type to play around, especially something like love.Â
'Mr. Jeon'¦ is interested in me? Why? I'm not even a woman.'
Kibum never had a problem with two men in a relationship because Taewoo said that he preferred men more than women. But Mr. Jeon was way out of his league. He didn't even think about him.Â
As Kibum was still dazed with the sudden development, they finished the dinner in silence. They finished everything after it was already nine at night. Mr. Jeon told his driver to go to Kibum's house first to drop him off.
Once they were in front of Kibum's house, Kibum excused himself and opened the car door. He was confused with the sudden development. All he wanted to do right not was to sort out his messy thought alone.
"Wait!" Junho suddenly opened his car door and did few quick steps to chase Kibum. He caught Kibum's hand to stop him from entering the house, "Tomorrow is Saturday, be ready at eleven, I will come to pick you up."
