Hye-yoon, sitting alone on a chair with her long, slender legs propped up on the desk, called Chairman Yoo on speakerphone.

Doo do …

“Did you have fun with my daughter?”

Chairman Yoo’s husky voice soon flowed out from the pitch-black phone in front of me.

“Then. You had a great time with your daughter. Did you call me because you missed your daughter? Grandpa’s late-born daughter is home now, so calling me won’t do anything.”

“You’re good at joking. Why would you call for something like that?”

Chairman Yoo Seon-ho continued speaking after coughing in vain.

“Thanks to Seolhee, Black Emily and Hwarang Group are being introduced in the media as if they’re joining hands. But we’re not doing any business together right now, right? Right?”

“That’s right. But why is that?”

“Well, I called you myself to make sure. We need to decide whether or not to continue to make the Hwarang Group look like they’re on the same side as Black Emily. To be honest, I can allow that kind of media play because I’m being generous. Chairman Bin.”

“Is that why you called?”

Hye-yoon, who put both hands on the back of her head, smiled and answered.

“Well, wouldn’t it be more beneficial for Hwarang Group to see Black Emily behind them? You’re not asking me for money, are you?”

“No. We have a lot of money. How can a conglomerate rip off the mafia?”

“Then let’s just go on like this. If there’s something that’s difficult to solve at your company, we can help you for free. Is there anyone you want to get rid of?”

“As expected, Chairman Bin is a talkative person. There is one politician I want to get rid of these days. Even if it is Black Emily, it would be difficult to assassinate a politician, right?”

Hyeyoon laughed out loud and answered.

“If you poke at it a little, you’ll get straight to the point. Chairman Yoo. Yes. It’s not easy for us to get rid of politicians either. But it’s not completely impossible. A hundred years ago in the US… there were frequent cases of police chiefs or congressmen being shot and killed by the mafia. And in our country too, now-”

Hye-yoon, who had been touching her fingernails out of habit, stretched out her hand and looked at her fingernails from afar as she continued speaking.

“Our country is now becoming that kind of world, so there’s nothing to be afraid of.”

Chairman Yoo responded to Hye-yoon’s confident words with a slightly nervous voice.

“No. Let’s think about that story carefully. It’s not something to be decided lightly. And the moment someone of high rank dies at the hands of the mafia, we’re really on the same boat from that moment on.”

“Okay. Think carefully.”

After a moment of silence, Chairman Yoo changed the subject.

“Are you…… dating that guy now?”

“Who? Seongwon?”

“Yeah.”

Hye-yoon, whose expression was subtly distorted, answered indifferently.

“I don’t want to talk about personal things.”

“There are many people in the conglomerate family who want to be connected with you. If Black Emily and the conglomerate family are definitely combined through marriage, they will become a formidable force.”

“There are people who want to marry me?”

“Yes. That’s a lot too. Didn’t Black Emily grow bigger than you imagined?”

“Well, that’s thanks to my ability.”

Hye-yoon giggled as she answered like that.

But Chairman Yoo’s voice was serious.

“That’s the advice I want to give you. If you get a marriage or dating request from another conglomerate, definitely reject it. I’m saying this for your own good.”

“Why?”

“You’ve grown in power incredibly quickly. Even so, you’re still a person in the shadows. If you suddenly come out into the light and try to increase your power through marriage with a conglomerate family… you’ll be ruined.”

“Don’t worry about that.”

“Huh?”

Hye-yoon declared clearly, placing both hands on the back of her head and looking up at the ceiling.

“I will never be called powerful through marriage.”

“……”

After a moment of silence, Chairman Yoo smiled and answered.

“From what I can hear from your voice, it seems like you really like that guy named Woo Sung-won.”

“That’s none of your business, Grandpa.”

Hyeyoon smiled and added.

“As I said before, that’s a personal matter.”

***

That night.

I was sleeping with my stomach scratched.

I was tired because I went out to play. That’s why sleep was sweet.

At that time, when I was deeply asleep-

I felt some pressure.

I’m a light sleeper, so I wake up easily at the slightest rustling sound.

This pressure is still…….

When I carefully opened my eyes, noticing this peculiar pressure, I saw Hye-yoon looking down at me from the darkness.

As expected, Hyeyoon, wearing a loose t-shirt and not a bra, was lying on top of me and looking down at me.

“What are you doing instead of sleeping?”

When I asked, Hye-yoon smiled and answered.

“I spoke with Yoo Seol-hee’s father today.”

“Yuseolhee’s dad?”

Ah. Are you talking about Chairman Yoo Seon-ho?

But why are you talking about this at this time…?

When I made a face that said I didn’t know, Hye-yoon lay down on top of me and looked down at me as she continued speaking.

“There are many men from wealthy families who are after this body.”

“From a conglomerate family? You?”

“Yeah.”

ah?

Are you… trying to brag?

I’m such a popular person… Are you here to brag?

Was Bin Hye-yoon such a childish person?

“Are you here to brag? At this hour?”

Then Hye-yoon, her face slightly red, pushed her hair behind one ear and answered as if embarrassed.

“I, I’m such an amazing person. Shouldn’t you be a little proud of yourself too?”

“Why me?”

“That’s it……Because you are a person I care about.”

What are you trying to say?

Are you saying you’re anxious because you’re not making any progress?

By the way, oops… Hye-yoon. If you’re wearing a baggy t-shirt, please wear a bra.

I can see your chest~

I thought Hye-yoon was asking me for a compliment, so I stroked Hye-yoon’s head and said.

“Yeah. Our Hye-yoon. She did well. She’s a great person who’s popular and good at her job. Let’s keep doing well like our Hye-yoon is doing now… Is that enough?”

Then Hye-yoon answered with a cold expression.

“What are you doing now?”

“Praise.”

“You’re like a stupid bear. Really.”

Hyeyoon answered like that and changed her position and lay down next to me.

“I’ll cut it here today.”

“What?? Oh, no. You know I’m sensitive when I sleep. I can’t sleep well when someone is next to me.”

“Then just adapt.”

Hyeyoon, who answered like that, fell asleep, breathing heavily, less than three minutes later.

I really fall asleep in an instant. Well, it was like this when I was little and in orphanage too…

I covered Hye-yoon with the blanket properly, took out a new blanket, went down to the bottom of the bed, and lay down.

Hyeyoon seems to be anxious because I don’t hug her.

But I… had no intention of moving forward with the current situation.

Because it’s still dangerous.

Because I don’t want to get more involved with the mafia than I am now, and I don’t want to become a pillar of the mafia.

If you have patience, it will come to you.

Let’s just wait and see…

***

The next day.

Han Hyeon-ho’s mansion.

In front of Han Hyeon-ho, a young woman was sitting with her legs crossed.

A beautiful woman with a sexy aura just from her eyes. However, there was a strange vulgarity to her beauty.

Han Hyeon-ho, who was sitting across from them, asked.

“You’re the ace that made it in that industry?”

“Yes.”

The woman put a cigarette in her mouth, lit it, and answered.

“Tenpro….. There’s no one in the market who doesn’t know me. I worked at a restaurant for a while and made some money by seducing rich people. You don’t know how much money you can make if you work as an ace in an adult entertainment establishment, do you?”

Ugh… It’s sexy.

Han Hyun-ho felt a tingling sensation in his lower body.

The woman asked after seeing Han Hyun-ho’s expression as he swallowed hard.

“Did you call me here because you wanted to do it with me? I’m a bit expensive……. I start at a thousand at least. But I’ll definitely give you my money’s worth.”

“No. There’s a guy I want you to seduce. Can you make one guy lose his mind? Seduce him and make him lose his mind.”

“Of course. That’s my specialty.”

Han Hyun-ho held out a small photo.

It was a photo of Woo Sung-won’s face.

“There are some girls I want to take right now… but this guy keeps hanging around them and bothering them. Can you seduce him and make him lose his mind?”

“What? He’s just an ordinary looking guy. He looks like a pushover, doesn’t he?”

The woman giggled, dropping the ash from her cigarette into the ashtray.

“Of course it is possible. But who is this guy? It’s not dangerous, is it?”

“That’s….. that guy who has something going on with Bin Hye-yoon.”

“Yes?”

The woman’s expression suddenly became seriously distorted.

“Rain, Bin Hye-yoon? The woman who is doing Black Emily Boss?”

“Yeah. But why are you so surprised?”

“You’re crazy. Seriously. I don’t want to do it.”

The woman jumped to her feet.

“Why? Why?”

“Don’t you know what kind of person Bin Hye-yoon is? She’s crazy. Seriously. Even the neighborhood gangsters who have nothing but bravado can’t even squeak when they hear Bin Hye-yoon’s name? Do you think she’s a normal person? Are you telling me to seduce the guy she’s having a crush on?”

“I want to take Bin Hye-yoon with me. If you treat me well-”

“Life is more important than money. Your Highness. Don’t rush orders by doing useless things. If you do something wrong, Bin Hye-yoon can kill you too.”

Then, Han Hyeon-ho’s expression became distorted.

I feel like my pride is being completely crushed.

Are you saying that Bin Hye-yoon is scarier than me? I’m the 4th generation of a conglomerate?

“What the heck… A girl working at a bar says something like that? Do you not know who I am? I am Han Hyun-ho from the Laance Group. And Bin Hye-yoon is the kind of woman who suits me. Don’t you know that?”

The woman looked at Han Hyun-ho with a blank expression. She didn’t even laugh.

Yeah. Maybe I can get a lot of money out of this princely brat.

It was then that a good plan came to the woman’s mind.

The woman, whose expression suddenly changed, cleared her throat and answered.

“Okay. Okay. Okay. Well then……. I’ll do it.”

“Is that real?”

“Yes. But it’s a bit expensive. This kind of work is difficult and… Since I’m involved with Black Emily and I’m risking my life doing this… I think you’ll need to give me at least a few thousand, no, a few hundred million won?”

“Don’t worry about money. I’ll send you cash. Okay?”

“Okay. Then do your best.”

The woman smiled and held out her hand.

Han Hyun-ho smiled proudly and shook hands with the woman.

***

The next evening.

Seol-hee came home.

Seol-hee sat at the same table as us and had dinner with us, a little shamelessly. She even showed up at Hye-yoon’s house out of the blue without even calling.

“Hmm. It’s delicious. Seongwon’s cooking skills are better than I thought?”

Seol-hee smiled with satisfaction as she ate the stir-fried pork I made.

Hyeyoon looked at Seolhee’s face with a blank expression and answered.

“Young lady suddenly barged in and asked me to have dinner with you……. And you don’t hate this kind of common food, young lady?”

When Hye-yoon asked sarcastically, Seol-hee answered in a flirtatious manner.

“Homemade food is fine. I do care about food bought outside. Seongwon-ah, don’t you want to be my housekeeper?”

What?

When I frowned, Seol-hee laughed and said.

“Just kidding. Just kidding.”

After saying that, Seol-hee opened her eyes slightly and spoke to Hye-yoon.

“Hye-yoon, why do you keep wearing such a defenseless outfit at home? Put on a bra and some pants. How can a grown woman wear only a T-shirt and panties at home all the time?”

“Oh my. I don’t want to listen to the Hwarang Group girl. When you say that, it makes me want to take it off even more.”

As Hyeyoon answered while putting down her chopsticks, Seolhee whispered to me.

“You’re really amazing. Living with a woman like this.”

“What? I’m not taking you in, I’m just taking care of you for a little while-”

Seol-hee laughed hohoho.

Seol-hee put down her chopsticks and continued speaking quietly.

“We had fun playing in the ocean together last time. I thought it would be fun to be with you all.”

“What’s the fun in this? You must be wondering what else there is to hear.”

Seol-hee’s face turned bright red as Hye-yoon sneered while hitting her thigh.

“Hye-yoon. How long are you going to be sarcastic to me like that? I’m treating you with sincerity.”

“Really? You?”

Hyeyoon, who looked into Seolhee’s eyes by sticking her head out, smiled and continued speaking.

“Your father has a taste for wisdom. You think you are the smartest person in the world.”

“Hye-yoon? Are you jealous of my looks…”

“Ha- Jealousy? Who’s jealous of whom?”

Again, Hye-yoon and Seol-hee started arguing fiercely.

But it’s strange. When these two people meet like this, they always bicker but never cross the line.

It feels like we’re arguing after agreeing in advance not to say anything that would seriously hurt each other’s pride.

When we just meet, we feel like friends who like to hang out and play with each other. It’s not like we’re seriously on bad terms.

Perhaps Hye-yoon is dealing with Seol-hee because she is the daughter of the chairman of Hwarang Group.

Hyeyoon took out a tissue, wiped her mouth, and then opened her mouth a bit shamelessly.

“I don’t hide anything from anyone. I don’t hide anything from Sungwon right now either. Isn’t that why Sungwon can be like this in front of me with his panties on?”

“No. That’s because Hye-yoon is an exhibitionist.”

“Exhibitionism?”

Hyeyoon laughed loudly and asked Seolhee with her face close to hers.

“You don’t have any volume in your body. Your breasts are smaller than mine… Aren’t you jealous of me?”

“Huh? What, what does that mean?”

“That’s right. You were saying something about jealousy or something… The one who was jealous of me was a girl from Hwarang Group.”

“That’s ridiculous, Hyeyoon. I’m getting special care for my skin and body. Do you know how much I invest in self-care?”

“Really? So you have a better body than me?”

“Of course. You call that a saying?”

Hyeyoon spread her arms wide to the side and smiled brightly as she spoke.

“Take it off like me. Then.”
