Chapter 154 – Yuanna
“Get a drink here.”
“Thank you.”
She drove all the way to this place, but she couldn’t resist the drink Beauty offered her, so she decided to just take it.
‘Although I may not be able to go home today.’
Looking at Yuanna’s condition today, she thought that if she did well, she would be able to perform the act, and Lee Jin-seok poured her a glass of wine.
“I will follow you too.”
“Thanks.”
With the crystal glass half full of wine, the two toasted each other.
– Crack!
The pleasant sound of cups clashing against each other.
Hearing that sound, the two took a sip of the liquor without anyone saying anything to each other.
“Huh…That’s a bit poisonous.”
“Pretty toxic, right? It’s about 37 degrees, so it’s pretty strong.”
I usually played while drinking soju and beer, but since I had little experience of drinking yangju, the smell of alcohol that was unique to yangju remained in my mouth.
While Lee Jin-seok is blowing the smell of alcohol from her mouth.
Yuanna was really enjoying the smell of it with her mouth closed rather than she really enjoyed the drink.
“You must really like alcohol.”
“Yes…I like it, especially liquor because it tastes different every time I drink it.”
Unlike her usual dignified appearance, Yuanna’s face looks frustrated.
Seeing her face, Lee Jin-seok secretly used the eyes of her sexual desire to examine her condition.
Name: Yuna
Status: I am in a state of frustration due to a conflict with my current boyfriend.
A status window saying that there was a conflict with my boyfriend after I left.
I don’t know if it caused a conflict with her boyfriend because of me, but her heart was currently shaken.
‘It’s not a bad situation.’
A drinking party with a woman who is in a bad mood after arguing with her boyfriend.
A little care for her through her woman’s troubled heart was enough for her to come over.
“So, when do you think the script will come out?”
She brought her up to see her reaction as she drank her drink and move on to talking about her favorite things.
“Hmm… I don’t think there’s that much content, so I think I can finish it in a week or so.”
“A week is a lot longer than I thought.”
“I can probably finish it in five days at the latest.”
When she said that it was taking longer than expected because there was nothing special about it, Yuanna immediately corrected her words.
By the time the conversation about work was over, Yuanna changed her subject.
“Jin-Seok-san, by any chance, it has nothing to do with work, but can I talk to you about a man?”
“A man?”
“Yeah…My friend says he’s in trouble and needs some help…”
She suddenly, out of the blue, asked Lee Jin-seok for a consultation, and Yuanna felt quite regretful in her heart.
‘Yuanna, aren’t you crazy? How can you ask that person and not someone else?’
I don’t know if it’s an ordinary male friend or staff member, but Lee Jin-seok is a person who can greatly help her grow.
By the time she thinks that since she said this to the being, she can’t excuse herself even if the other person despises her.
“Feel free to ask.”
I heard Lee Jin-seok’s answer that I didn’t even expect.
Lee Jin-seok, who heard Yuanna carefully ask if she could give her advice, thought this was an opportunity.
He said he was a friend of hers, but when she checked her status on Yuanna, Lee Jin-seok already knew it was about her and her boyfriend.
He intended to use the situation to his advantage and make him fall in love with his boyfriend even more.
Thinking of that, I smiled at Yuanna and told her that I would give her advice. She, who was regretting it for nothing, opened her eyes wide and was surprised.
Contrary to the thought that the cold-hearted man would despise himself for asking about personal things.
When she said that she would kindly respond to her consultation, Yuanna, who was surprised, came to her senses at the voice of Lee Jin-seok calling.
“Anna?”
“Yes Yes?”
“What is the counseling subject?”
Lee Jin-seok turns his body towards her and asks her questions in a kind tone, as if he would sincerely listen to her.
In response to his actions, Yuanna herself turned her body towards Lee Jin-seok and faced each other.
“He…Is suspecting that her friend’s boyfriend may be cheating on her.”
“I would love to hear more details.”
At Lee Jin-seok’s words that he wanted to hear more about her, Yuanna took a moment to organize her thoughts and then she told him about what had happened today.
My friend just did that because of work, but my boyfriend doesn’t understand.
Originally, I didn’t do that, but I became very sensitive when I said that my behavior was different from usual.
He said he had a timid personality and couldn’t get angry easily, but today he even got angry.
After completing her explanation, Yuanna felt an unknown attraction to him the moment she met Lee Jin-seok’s eyes.
He gave her explanations about her work, which had been going on for quite some time, and he kindly listened to all of her explanations without taking her eyes off her once.
She just quietly listened to her every word, nodding her head from time to time with interest, without a hint of boredom.
“So my friend said he didn’t quite understand.”
“Why does my boyfriend misunderstand me like that?”
“Yes, it would be comfortable to think of it simply as an extension of work, but I don’t know why they sharpen their blades like that.”
Lee Jin-seok, who heard Yuanna’s explanation, knew everything about what had happened.
‘This could be misunderstood?’
A friend of 22 years is interested in a man she just met for the first time and shows a side she hasn’t seen in a while?
In addition, the man is handsome and infiltrates everyday conversations, so you can’t always say anything about him?
Hearing this, most people would think it was Yuanna’s fault.
However, Lee Jin-seok was unable to express his thoughts right now.
The first thing to do when comforting a woman is empathy. Because sympathizing with her current thoughts was the first thing to do.
Solving or blaming were things that could be done even after giving enough sympathy. That method is also more efficient.
In addition, since Lee Jin-seok was plotting to break up the two of them, she had to make her boyfriend the wrong person unconditionally.
“Hmm… After hearing Anna, it seems that your boyfriend has some sensitive parts.”
“Which part?”
“First of all, can you say that you can’t distinguish between ’empty’ and ‘four’? No matter how wary you are of men you see for the first time, you seem to be too sensitive about your work-related behavior.”
“Is that so…?”
“Yes, if you think I am the same man, I think so.”
‘Ugh… What kind of bullshit is this.’
Well, I tried to cover it up somehow, but even in Lee Jin-seok’s opinion, it was really nonsense.
It is true that men are wary of handsome men approaching their girlfriends.
No matter how much work it is, as long as he is a male, it is inevitable that he be vigilant to protect his females.
Plus, she does something new to that man, such as undressing her girlfriend of 22 years and displaying femininity?
If he was a jealous man, he might turn his eyes right away and get angry.
However, it is something that a normal person can solve through conversation.
It was something we could understand each other by saying ‘I hope you don’t act like that.’
Unfortunately, Ji Eun-hyeok had already listened to Lee Jin-seok and harbored seeds of doubt, so that was impossible.
‘That’s what I said, but is this for real?’
He honestly threw a questionable hwadu and hid the seeds in his heart, but he didn’t know it would be real.
It was something that a man with a fair amount of self-esteem could solve without getting angry.
Contrary to what I thought, Ji Eun-hyeok’s self-esteem was probably at the level of crawling on the ground, so this must have happened.
Lee Jin-seok laughed inwardly at the thought that his plan had succeeded and gaslighted Yuanna.
“Also, it’s something that can be solved through conversation, but I don’t understand why he started getting angry.”
“I don’t understand that part either. If there is something uncomfortable about it, it would be fine if you could explain it well… It’s not that, you raise your voice first…”
“You can’t read other people’s minds, but many people want to know their own minds without speaking.”
“So. If you would just tell me, I would be comfortable talking to you.”
At the words of Lee Jin-seok, who immediately found and scratched the itchy spot, Yuanna felt her stuffy mind relieved.
And before she knew it, she even forgot to excuse herself as her own friend, and she even agreed to his words by referring to herself.
Her conversation with Lee Jin-seok is very normal, not Ji Eun-hyeok’s reaction, which is incomprehensible to her common sense.
As she talked with him, Yuanna began to fall for Lee Jin-seok’s charms without realizing it.
‘I feel like I haven’t had such a comfortable conversation in a really long time…’
Lee Jin-seok’s speech, gently scratching the itchy parts as if he knew all about her inner thoughts, stuck in her heart.
Unlike other people, you don’t have to explain how you feel and what parts don’t make sense to you.
He just said it once, and he understood everything without explaining what he meant, and the conversation flowed like water.
“The time is already like this.”
“Ah…! Already…”
Yuanna blurts out the end of her words, perhaps regretting that she couldn’t have a longer conversation with Lee Jin-seok.
The current time was heading towards 12:00, three hours after the first meeting at 9:00.
“Originally, I tried to keep things simple, but it’s been longer than I thought.”
“I’m sorry…I asked for advice…”
“No, that’s okay because I accepted it. There is absolutely no need for Anna to be sorry.”
“I think it’s too late. Is there any way to get back?”
“I brought a car, but I’m drunk, so I’ll probably have to call a deputy or get a taxi.”
When Lee Jin-seok said that she had to call a manager or catch a taxi, Yuanna was troubled.
‘I want to talk more…’
Since she was born, she had never met a person with whom she could communicate so well, and Yuanna enjoyed the conversation with him.
Besides, if we part today, Jeon Jeon-seok and I don’t know when we’ll meet again.
Thinking that she wouldn’t be able to talk to Lee Jin-seok for a while, Yuanna felt thirst in her throat.
“Um…Would you like to sleep here tonight and leave tomorrow morning?”
“You mean tomorrow morning?”
“Yeah…It’s late and it’s night, so it could be dangerous…There’s a separate sleeping room here. What do you think?”
Lee Jin-seok cheered inwardly when Yuanna suddenly told him to sleep here.
‘I should have gone home because the atmosphere was nice, but I’m grateful if I do this.’
Thinking of that, Lee Jin-seok pretended to be worried for a while and nodded his head.
“Anna, after listening to her, I think it will be okay. Excuse me for just one day.”
“No. Then I’ll go to the bathroom for a while.”
“Yes, please come.”
When Lee Jin-seok agrees to go to bed for the night, she decides to go to the bathroom for a while, feeling better at the thought that she can talk to him more.
“Huh…Did you drink too much?”
When she arrived at the bathroom, Yuanna looked in the mirror and said she looked at her face, which was more red than when she usually drank.
She’s a heavy drinker, so she’s never turned red unless she’s been drinking quite a bit.
Her face was flushed red as if she had only eaten half a bottle of liquor, as if she was not feeling well today.
She stood in front of the mirror, powdered her face, and briefly adjusted her dress before heading back to her office.
Lee Jin-seok, who was left alone in the office while Yuanna went to the bathroom, was now in trouble.
‘Should I put it in? Should I? Shall I put it? Should I or not?’
Liquor is still half full in the crystal glass.
He was contemplating whether to add aphrodisiac to this leftover liquor.
[What are you thinking about? I think it’s already been passed over, but just put it in.]
As always, don’t worry, just eat and see what the system says.
However, when Lee Jin-seok did something these days, he felt like he was picking on women with weak medicine.
‘No matter how useful the skills are after eating them, I think I’m using too many aphrodisiacs…’
[Once you eat it, isn’t it over? Just blow it away.]
Contemplating between the little angel Lee Jin-seok floating in his head and the devil system, Lee Jin-seok eventually opened a store.
‘Because I don’t know when an opportunity as good as today will arise.’
I had put in so much steam, but the moment something happened, I decided to use an aphrodisiac because it was Maljjang Dorumuk.
Lee Jin-seok, who bought a high-quality aphrodisiac at the store, only dropped a drop, probably because he had a bit of conscience left.
Not to the point of wanting a man intoxicated, just enough to make your body a little excited.
While thinking that if it was this amount, Yuanna would be able to make her own choice and be embraced instead of being embraced by the power of drugs.
