“Actually, when I fell, I braced myself hard on the floor, so my right hand hurts too! I was planning on moving some furniture at home today. It’ll be hard in this state, so please help me. I beg you.”

“You hurt your wrist too? Well, then there’s nothing I can do about it.”

I took off the shoes I had put on to go home and came back inside.

As I’ve said before, I had no intention of deepening my relationship with the CEO-nim, only maintaining a minimal, mutual understanding.

For that reason, I had planned to simply confirm her safety today and return home, but I hadn’t expected the CEO-nim to ask for my help.

‘Right, it’s easier for a man to move furniture. Since I’m already here, I might as well help.’

“What do I need to move?”

“That is…”

“CEO-nim, wait a moment.”

I unconsciously lowered my gaze and was startled when I saw her foot.

The toenail on one of her big toes was broken, and blood that had seeped from the crack had clotted.

“How did you fall for your toenail to end up like this?”

“I-I told you. I fell quite hard…”

“You haven’t disinfected this, have you? Do you have a first-aid kit at home?”

“I think I have one, but there’s no need to go as far as disinfecting it…”

“No. If it bled this much, you need to disinfect it. Sit down here.”

I had the CEO-nim sit on the sofa, then after hearing where the first-aid kit was, I went to get it.

It might seem like I was making a fuss, but there was a reason for it.

It was because when I was in high school, I had neglected a broken toenail after playing soccer and regretted it greatly.

I don’t know how much it hurt when the part that bled became inflamed back then.

“I’ve brought the first-aid kit.”

“You really didn’t have to…”

“If you leave it and it gets inflamed, you’ll definitely regret it. First, you need to wash your foot before disinfecting it… CEO-nim, you can wash it yourself, right?”

“Huh? Uh…”

“Then I’ll help you up, so go wash your foot and come back.”

“No, I’m really fine-”

“I said no. Come on, quickly.”

I forcibly helped the hesitant CEO-nim stand up.

Anyone watching might think it strange that I was doing all this, despite saying I had no intention of getting close to the CEO-nim.

But perhaps because I had experienced the terror of inflammation, I couldn’t just ignore it if I thought someone else might suffer the same pain as me.

“Jihoon-ssi, wait a moment…”

This woman had no idea of the destructive power of inflammation.

Thinking it would be better if she remained ignorant of it, I supported her and took her to the bathroom.

===

Whoosh.

Countless water droplets fell onto An Chaerin’s naked body as she stood in front of the showerhead.

Fortunately, the blood between her toenails had clotted into a scab, so she didn’t feel pain just from the water touching it.

‘Oh no. I’m so embarrassed I could die.’

She had fallen asleep covered in sweat after masturbating all night and had only woken up recently.

That’s why she had wanted to avoid being close to Han Jihoon, but since he had helped her to the bathroom, the smell of her sweat must have reached his nose.

‘I should have washed up beforehand when Jihoon-ssi went to get the box…!’

Regretting it wouldn’t change anything, so she tried to wash every nook and cranny diligently now.

After finishing her shower and putting on her clothes, she went out to the living room and heard Han Jihoon’s voice as he waited, sitting on the sofa.

“You only needed to wash your foot. Did you take a shower?”

“I sweated quite a bit while sleeping…”

“Hold on a moment. I need to wash my hands too to disinfect it, so please dry your foot thoroughly.”

“No, I can do it myself.”

“You said your right hand hurts too. It’s better if I finish it quickly rather than you doing it with one hand.”

An Chaerin, recalling the lie she had momentarily forgotten, unnecessarily brought her right hand behind her back to hide it.

She felt bad for trapping him in her home with a lie and tried to decline, but she had no choice but to sit obediently on the sofa.

“I’m going to apply the disinfectant. Bear with it even if it hurts.”

“…Okay.”

Han Jihoon diligently applied the red disinfectant into the crack of her broken toenail.

Perhaps because the blood had already clotted into a scab, she didn’t feel any particular pain.

“Even though it’s bruised, it’s not very swollen, so it doesn’t seem like a fracture. Your ankle isn’t particularly swollen either. That’s a relief.”

“Y-Yeah, I guess so…”

After applying all the medicine, Han Jihoon then took out gauze and began wrapping it around her big toe.

Meanwhile, An Chaerin silently watched him kneeling before her, meticulously caring for her wound.

If she were to date this man, as Yiseo Kang and Park Yuna suggested, would he continue to help her like this whenever something happened in the future?

She was usually someone who tried to solve any problem on her own, but she began to think that relying on a trustworthy man who rushed to her aid like this wasn’t so bad.

“Phew, done.”

Han Jihoon finished his work and stood up.

The big toe he had tended to was wrapped in medical gauze, and the tape was neatly applied.

“Now, be careful not to get water in it for a while.”

“Mm… Thank you.”

“You said you needed to move furniture, right? Which one is it?”

Moving furniture had been an excuse to keep him at her house, so there was no actual furniture that needed moving.

After a brief hesitation, An Chaerin pointed to a bookshelf in the living room.

“C-Can you move that bookshelf over there? I just want to put a potted plant in the middle.”

“It’s quite big, isn’t it? Were you planning on moving that yourself, CEO-nim? It seems like it would be hard even if your hands and feet were perfectly fine.”

“It’s awkward to call someone just for that…”

“There are a lot of books in it, so it’s okay to take them out before moving it, right?”

“Yeah. I’ll help you take out the books too.”

“It’s fine. Just sit there.”

Han Jihoon declined without hesitation and began removing the books one by one.

An Chaerin felt a pang of guilt as she watched the scene from the sofa.

However, he continued the work without any sign of annoyance.

“Phew. Done, right? Is there anything else to move?”

Han Jihoon moved the bookshelf, put the books back in their original places, and then asked, dusting his hands off.

“No, that’s enough. Thanks to you, it was moved easily. Thank you, Jihoon-ssi.”

“It’s not a difficult task anyway.”

For some reason, the atmosphere felt like he was about to say, ‘Well then, I’ll be going now,’ and they would part ways.

But for some reason, An Chaerin still didn’t want to let Han Jihoon go.

She had a feeling that if he left now, the quiet house would feel too empty and lonely.

“J-Jihoon-ssi. Have you eaten? It’s not dinner time yet, but please eat before you go. I’ll treat you as thanks for your help.”

“Really? My lunch digested quickly, and I was getting hungry. Then I won’t decline. Shall we order delivery?”

“Yeah. Order anything you want, Jihoon-ssi.”

“Then I should get tonkatsu.”

“Tonkatsu? You don’t need to choose something cheap. Anything is really fine, so order something expensive.”

“CEO-nim, you don’t know, do you? How much guys love Jeyuk-bokkeum and tonkatsu.”

“…Is that so? Then do as you please.”

Thirty minutes later, the ordered tonkatsu arrived, and the two sat side by side at the kitchen table.

Inside the opened delivery container was a tonkatsu that hadn’t been cut, but was left in one large piece.

“Nowadays, they usually cut it all for you, but this place just sent it whole. CEO-nim, give it to me. I’ll cut it for you.”

“Huh? Oh, no. It’s fine to just eat it.”

“Your hand is uncomfortable, isn’t it? Cutting isn’t difficult, so I’ll do yours quickly while I’m cutting mine.”

With his thoughtfulness, the meal began.

A subtly stable and comfortable feeling that she hadn’t experienced when eating alone in her spacious house.

If he had been someone from another company, the discomfort would have been greater, but strangely, with Han Jihoon, she didn’t feel that way at all.

“I ate well. I’ll be going now. Don’t do anything else and rest until your hands and feet recover.”

Having finished the meal, Han Jihoon was again about to go home.

If she had held him back with a lie, it was time to let him go now.

However, human desire knows no end, and An Chaerin was no exception.

‘I want to…’

Was it because she had comforted herself with a vibrator until she fell asleep from exhaustion last night?

When Han Jihoon had first arrived at her house, An Chaerin hadn’t felt any particular desire.

But after being with him and seeing his gentle side, the sexual desire that had momentarily subsided raised its head again.

Of course, what An Chaerin was feeling wasn’t just simple desire.

By becoming one with Han Jihoon at this moment, she wanted to delay the emptiness that would come when he left, for as long as possible.

“U-Um. Jihoon-ssi.”

“Yes?”

“I… want to…”

“Now?”

“W-We’re sex buddies, aren’t we? If one person wants to, the other should comply.”

“That’s true, but are you sure you’re okay? Your hand and foot hurt, don’t they?”

Perhaps if she mingled their bodies with Han Jihoon now, while her mind was complicated by his gentleness, she might fall for him not just physically, but emotionally too.

However, even knowing such a possibility, An Chaerin wanted to enjoy his body at this moment.

She wanted to soothe the emptiness and loneliness she had felt while masturbating alone last night, looking at the video call screen.

Even if it meant feeling the shame of revealing her own lies.

“A-Actually, my wrist hurting and being unable to walk are all lies… Only my toe is bruised and hurts a little, but as long as it’s not touched, I’m fine…”

“Really? It’s a relief you’re not hurting, but why lie… Ah.”

Han Jihoon’s expression suggested he had realized something.

“You lied because you wanted to do it with me.”

Han Jihoon hadn’t even dreamed that the other person might be feeling something akin to affection for him.

He only thought she still saw him as a pervert and a playboy.

Since he didn’t even know that Yiseo Kang and Park Yuna had visited An Chaerin, it was natural for him to interpret An Chaerin’s intentions differently.

“So a vibrator wasn’t enough for you after all. If you wanted to, you should have said so earlier. Are you too embarrassed to say it first now?”

It was slightly different from the truth, but it didn’t matter at all.

Because she wanted to become one with him right now, An Chaerin didn’t deny it and nodded.

“U-Uh-huh…”

“You want to receive my semen again, don’t you?”

As soon as she heard the word ‘semen,’ the memory of being called a ‘whore’ and roughly embraced by him resurfaced.

At the same time, her lower abdomen began to throb with heat.

She had clearly been swayed by Han Jihoon’s gentle demeanor today, yet her body yearned for the depravity and pleasure from that time.

It was proof that An Chaerin was so obsessed with his ‘thing’ that it could be written about on Sex Wiki.

“That’s right… You can use my body however you want… I want you to cum all over my whore pussy like last week.”

“I’ll pay the price with semen, just like last time.”

“Mm… I like semen.”

“CEO-nim, you’ve really changed a lot compared to before. Let’s go to the bedroom.”

Han Jihoon’s words weren’t wrong, but there was one thing he didn’t know.

That no matter what extent he imagined, An Chaerin’s heart had undergone far greater changes.

Without needing to voice that fact, An Chaerin led her aroused body towards the bedroom.
