episode_0122

I coldly stare at the enemy holding Shin-ae’s head.

The body that had been crouching straightened up.

And he said with a very grumpy face.

“Enemy.”

“Huh…?”

The enemy who had been grumbling at my cold words soon came to his senses.

Looking at her like that, I folded my arms alone.

“Are you only thinking about doing that with me?”

The ears that were very nervous puffed up as if they were angry.

The enemy who saw the ear tried hard to avoid eye contact and muttered.

“Sorry… I got angry without realizing it.”

“Okay, I understand your thoughts now.”

I can’t help but laugh.

I turned around with my arms crossed.

Then, she dropped the head she was holding.

The sound of a bowling ball rolling on the floor echoes.

Soon, the enemy tapped my shoulder with an apologetic voice, unlike usual.

“Are you angry?”

There was no response to that sensation.

It’s annoying.

I’ve had such a hard time so far.

How long have I been waiting for you to come save me?

You were just thinking about doing ‘that kind of thing’ with me.

“Then, you won’t be angry? I thought I was scared to death!”

The enemy kept his mouth shut at my words.

She cleared her throat and coughed, becoming mute.

Then he picks up the fallen head and says.

“That’s why I came to save you…”

I glance at Shin-ae’s detached face.

Soon the monstrosity begins to writhe and gradually turns to dust, flowing down from the enemy’s fingers.

The same was true for the torso.

Her flesh, which he had forcibly licked, turned into fine grains like salt and spilled under the chair.

Thanks to this, only the black robe covering her flutters.

Was the salty taste really because it was salt?

I want to brush my tongue right now.

We looked down at the robe left alone.

Soon the enemy will crush the giant with his sharp heels.

“As expected, living alone seems dangerous. If you look away for even a moment, something like this can happen…”

“Then what should I do? You can’t be with someone for the rest of your life.”

I muttered, pressing the robe she had stepped on together.

Then the enemy stares down at me.

She looks at the brand that has now completely wrapped around my neck and her expression becomes serious.

“Anna, I wish I could stay with you for the rest of my life… but if you keep harassing me like this, there’s nothing I can do.”

Soon the red-eyed woman carefully touches the pattern around my neck with her fingers.

Fortunately, he nodded, seemingly satisfied with the sight of me not being in pain.

“Anna, who has good information, is tracking that girl…”

“You will stay at my house for the time being.”

That sound again?

I look up at her with a serious expression.

He asked coldly, covering his chest with both arms.

“As expected… a woman like you…”

“No!”

Then the enemy strongly denied it in a slightly louder voice.

She clears her throat and calmly explains her reason.

“My penthouse neighbors are all single-minded hunters.”

“In addition, when entering and exiting the complex, you must go through security checks if you are not a member of the Ilsim group.”

“That is, even when you are alone, neither Shin-ae’s clone nor the enemy will be able to approach you.”

She takes the penthouse card out of her bosom.

It’s a very luxurious golden color.

The card key had this written on it…

“Irvine Golden Forest Desire Palace.”

“The Temple of Passion in a Sophisticated Golden Forest…?”

I can’t help but frown at the absurd name of the apartment.

Then the enemy smiled as if he agreed.

“I didn’t make that name up, the office man did.”

“These days, brands need to be this luxurious to sell.”

She put the card key in my palm.

And gently stroke the crown of your head.

The fox’s ears flutter in obedience.

“But I don’t want to live in a place like this for the rest of my life…”

“Just until we catch Rep. Park. Anna and I will find out where that girl is hiding as quickly as possible.”

The enemy patted my shoulder at my gloomy appearance.

And he speaks with trusting eyes.

“Just bear with it until then.”

“…”

I fiddled with my card key with my lips tightly shut.

It’s a golden color that doesn’t suit me.

“Then, I have to stay home alone while you’re gone?”

The enemy always goes to work with one mind.

So, am I supposed to stay home alone and guard the house like a pet dog?

Just thinking about it makes me feel lonely and sad…

The fox’s ears droop in gloomy thoughts.

Then the enemy pinched my drooping ear and shook it gently.

She put her ear to my ear and whispered secretly, as if she had planned it out in advance.

“Don’t worry. I’ll give you a friend to talk to in the meantime.”

“Talking buddy…?”

「—.」

“Hey, the girl is here–?”

The area under my eyes is twitching.

When I came to Irvine Golden, a name as long as a beggar, a green-eyed woman with flowing black hair greeted me.

“Vice President Na-Hyeon…?”

The enemy dropped me off and hurried off to work.

I was left alone and the vice president immediately grabbed me by the shoulder.

“No, why is your Majesty here…”

“Why! Because of this stigma, Rep. Park’s position is marked.”

She pointed to my neck and said calmly.

Her appearance when we got closer was completely different from her charismatic appearance at work.

In dolphin pants that don’t give off any sense of dignity as a vice president.

Not just a tight-fitting suit, but a loose hoodie.

Anyone can tell that she’s a homebody in her 20s…

“That’s true, but…”

I muttered, glancing at her from time to time.

Then Na-Hyeon immediately put her arm around my shoulder.

Thanks to that, her hair, tied to one side, flutters and hits my cheek.

This guy even had a gopchang band…

“Today, I personally took charge of escorting my daughter-in-law-.”

“Aren’t you in a position where you need to be escorted much more than me?”

I shrugged my shoulders like a student being caught by bullies.

Then she spoke leisurely, wiggling the fingers on her shoulder.

“Are you afraid that I won’t be able to protect my daughter-in-law?”

She took the lead, giggling.

Even though it is clearly broad daylight, his speech is refreshing, as if he has been drinking.

“Still, I’m the number 2 in this one mind-.”

No, if you look closely, it seems like you’ve already had a drink…

From the way he walks to his fortune, he is clearly an old man.

But soon her smile disappeared and a bitter expression appeared.

At that sight, my whole body tensed up for a moment.

“Besides… the enemy said that, but anyway, I won’t be of much help at the company…”

Mr. Pants?

My lips parted at her unexpected twist.

“He always asks me to have a company dinner after work, I hate that…”

When I first saw it at a Japanese restaurant, its force was no joke.

But, looking at it this way, she just looks like a reckless swan sister…

“That’s okay! Thanks to our good snake cubs, I get to have fun like this, right?”

Soon, her green eyes sparkle, as if all the sadness has disappeared.

So I was dragged to the enemy’s penthouse by the active vice president.

What is this…

It’s like a pet that was left in the care while I went to work!

But since I’m with such a great person as the Vice President, I think it’s a decent treatment, right?

If you think about it, most business leaders keep pets.

I may be no different from that dog.

but…

Such bitter worries quickly disappeared.

When I opened the front door, my eyes widened at the sight that unfolded before my eyes.

No. 2501.

That house on the 25th floor was the best house I’ve ever lived in.

“Wow…”

As I opened the front door, a long hallway opened up.

If you go straight down that hallway, a huge living room of about 30 pyeong will unfold.

A spacious flat-screen TV and an obviously expensive-looking sofa.

And… a panoramic view of Seoul through the glass walls.

Even though Ilsim is a huge company…

I can’t imagine all the executives living in a place like this.

“How about killing it? Our Irvine something is the pride of Ilsim Construction-.”

Na-Hyeon rubbed her nose and said proudly.

It seems that even the vice president himself doesn’t know the name of his own apartment.

“Rest comfortably until the enemy arrives-.”

She said, lying down on the sofa.

The marble table is strewn with potato chips, as if he had been eating snacks before meeting me.

“Oh, yes…”

I looked around the penthouse, somewhat nervous.

Then the thought occurred to me…

No matter how rich you are.

No matter how nice the house is.

The point is that all people live the same way.

Especially our vice president.

I glance down at her.

In pants that reveal your thighs.

Potato chips that you can eat without hesitation.

And… cookie crumbs falling on the rug!

This guy has zero sense of cleanliness!

Even though you are the vice president, you are so rude!

Moreover, since they only eat delivery food, the sink and table are full of disposable containers.

Judging from the fact that the enemy’s room and study are relatively clean, it must have been Vice Chairman Na Hyeon who messed everything up.

Enemy, what kind of fight are you…

I can’t help but sigh.

But, whether I did or not, the vice president was still spilling cookie crumbs all over the rug and even into the crevices of the sofa.

Just looking at that sight makes me feel sick.

I can’t do this anymore.

“Vice President…”

“Huh?”

“Can you lift your legs for a moment?”

“Where are the legs…?”

The vice president tilts his head like a high school girl.

Soon she sees the vacuum cleaner in my hand and laughs heartily.

“Oh, it’s okay-. Anyway, our cleaning company comes every two days-.”

Crazy, so this was all done in two days?

It’s dizzying just thinking about it.

“It’s hard to swallow, that’s why.”

He said it with a forced smile.

Soon, Na-Hyeon, who heard my teeth clinking, scratches her head and gets up from the sofa.

“Ahahaha… I see, as expected, our daughter-in-law is diligent at housework-.”

She watches me clean, fidgeting.

Even when cleaning the bathroom.

Even when washing dishes.

Even when shaking out rugs and revealing sofa seats.

“What are you looking at?”

“No…I’m a little sorry…”

“Then, throw this away and come back.”

I pointed to the plastic containers I had piled up after washing the dishes.

She held it obediently with both hands.

“Delivery food is good, but if possible, eat home-cooked meals instead.”

“But-, when I go back to my parents’ house, the old man nags me so much…”

“Are you old?”

“The chairman said-, if you stay at home, he always says something-.”

Looking at the vice president’s current state, it’s only natural…

It’s a good thing I didn’t get my back smashed!

“Starting tonight, eat mostly home-cooked meals.”

“I don’t know how to cook?”

Shameless.

No, yeah… I guess he can be shameless as the vice president…

“Why are you looking at me like that? The enemy only knows how to cook ramen.”

I’ve known for a long time that the enemy doesn’t cook.

Since you’ve always eaten your father’s packed lunch, you probably never had to cook for yourself.

“Don’t worry. I’ll make you a home-cooked meal.”

Yeah, since it’s come to this.

Let me try being the father of the enemy and this reckless vice president.

I can’t go to the store anyway.

I’m trying to incorporate Angelic Hand into cooking as well.

Then, I will be able to open my own cocktail bar without Jiwook Sunbae.

After finishing cleaning, I headed to the kitchen with curiosity.

And then I confidently opened the refrigerator.

but…

Is it because this is a house where two beginner cooks live?

The fridge contained only a few leftover delivery items and a large bottle of beer.

“I guess I should look at the market first.”

I feel like I’m not a pet that was brought here, but a maid…

I don’t think I’ll be able to stay comfortable here.
