Chapter 192:
“Is that why you want to the attendee’s room in the middle of the night? Because you had a desperate need?”
He wasn’t wrong, but it sounded weird. As Lee-yeon just blankly stared at him, he added.
“Which bastard was it? Ah–. Was it that one? The stupid one that said he’d lift the ladder? Or the one that chatted with you when you were eating?”
He looked upset.
“You shouldn’t eat whatever just because you’re desperate.”
“W, what are you—“
“Just starve then, Lee-yeon.”
… Starve? Staarve? Lee-yeon shouted before she could think calmly.
“I’m already pissed off that I can’t go and eat, so why do I have to starve! I came out of the house because there was nothing to eat there. I came out secretly because I couldn’t wake up Kwon Ki-seok to feed me—“
“Wake up Kwon Ki-seok?”
He cut her off.
“Just what did you want to fill to wake Kwon Ki-seok?”
His hot hand touched her stomach. She flinched.
“Lee-yeon, explain well. There’s only us here.”
He spoke creepily. She could smell his strong scent as his vicious face came to her. But it only made her hungrier.
Kwon Chae-woo bit Lee-yeon’s ear. He sucked on it and then started to chew on it.
“Where is that thing that was hanging here?”
His breath touched her sensitive side.
“W, w, what are you doing…!”
I wanted to rip off that earring last time.”
She blushed and hit his shoulders, but it was no use.
“You never did anything like that before.”
“D, don’t chew…! Don’t make an eating sound! W, why do you only chew? I also want my tomato…!”
Her emotion was jumping everywhere. She couldn’t control it. It was like her switch to control it was gone. So she started crying before she could say anything.
“I, I also was going to eat! Juice, juice too…!”
“Juice? What juice?”
He pulled her crying face. Their nose touched.
“I want two eggs… I just wanted two eggs and can eat them without a word.”
“Of course, those bastards also have something similar between their legs, fuck I also have eggs too.”
“You’re already expired… I just want to mix milk with egg and –“
“I probably have that as well.”
“Noooo, not your balls…! Eggs, eggs! I want to mix it with milk and make scrambled eggs! I want scrambled egg and tomato!”
Lee-yeon started to cover her empty stomach and bawling, and Kwon Chae-woo, all flustered, lifted her up and wrapped her in a blanket.
“You kidnapped me and didn’t even feed me… You guys aren’t even human.”
One part of the mattress was pushed down heavily, and familiar warmth approached her. Lee-yeon’s stomach felt nauseated from the déjà vu.
Kwon Chae-woo flinched a bit and put his ears to her stomach. The sound of her stomach growling could be heard. He bit his lips while getting up.
“Where are you going with me tied up!”
“I’ll bring it.”contemporary romance
“Bring what?”
“Scrambled egg and tomato, and what else?”
“…”
Lee-yeon stopped crying. Instead, she started salivating.
“Orange juice…”
“Orange juice.”
He kicked the door.
“Open.”
It seemed like someone was on guard in front of the door as it swung open.
A little later, a wide plate full of scrambled egg, freshly washed cherry tomato, and orange juice came in with Kwon Chae-woo.
Lee-yeon had her wrist free as she ate as much as possible and somehow fell asleep, and the man who was watching her also fell asleep.

Next morning.
Kwon Chae-woo opened his eyes to the morning sunlight. The first thing that came to his eyes was sleeping So Lee-yeon.
He woke up.
The birds were singing outside.
That simple and clear fact hit him, and Kwon Chae-woo’s face became cold.
He took a piece of egg off Lee-yeon’s mouth and put it into his mouth. He sighed annoyingly. He could feel that he lost this war.

When did I fall asleep?
She was on alert in Kwon Chae-woo’s room, yet she fell asleep casually. She couldn’t sleep well when she came to the Kwon family house, yet she passed out last night.
When she opened her eyes, the thing that was hitting her wasn’t morning sunshine but Kwon Chae-woo’s eyes.
The morning sunlight through the curtain, fresh air, warm blanket. And the weight that was so familiar. Lee-yeon was back in the small house in Hwaido at that moment.
Chae-woo. I had a bizarre dream. It felt like she also reached out in the dream.
As she smiled at Kwon Chae-woo, he suddenly became stern.
Lee-yeon suddenly came back to her senses at that small change. If he were her actual husband, he would’ve smiled instead.
Lee-yeon ran from the door, and Kwon Chae-woo didn’t stop her. It was different from last night.
She brushed down her pale face and blamed it on her hormones.
