And to think he was holding a video like that.
I picked up my phone intending to send Seo Hajin a sarcastic congratulatory message, when a text arrived from Hahyun as if he’d been waiting.
[Hyung, if you can endure for just 3 more days, we can be together all day.]
I sent Hahyun a heart emoji and immediately contacted Hajin.
[That video was quite spicy, wasn’t it? No need to worry about the board meeting. It must have been difficult hiding something like that until now.]
Shortly after sending the message, I heard the door lock opening. When I rushed to the entrance, Hajin was staring at me with the eyes of a hungry predator.
I backed away gradually, intimidated by his presence.
“Why are you here at this hour?”
“Why ask when you know? I achieved results, so I need to be rewarded.”
He seemed to be referring to the breaking news from earlier. Hajin approached me while throwing off his jacket. Then he loosened his tie. With each step he took, he undid one button of his shirt.
I stood still, blankly watching him undress. Even though it was a sight I’d seen many times, I couldn’t take my eyes off him.
Before I knew it, he was right in front of me and embraced me tightly. I regretted not retreating to the bedroom, but by then it was already too late.
“Haa, haa…”
Shallow breaths escaped between our locked lips. All my senses, which had been off guard, instantly became alert. He kissed my lips, chin, and neck while whispering softly.
“If I’d known, I would’ve told you to prepare. I’m in quite a rush.”
It was a declaration that made my hair stand on end. While kissing me, he slid his large hand from my nape, down my back, and gradually lower. The moment he touched that intimate place, I gasped and hugged his body tightly, rubbing my cheek against his chest.
“Take it… slow.”
Without answering, he embraced me even tighter. Something hard pressed against my lower abdomen. Depending on how I tilted my head, it moved differently, rubbing against my body.
When our lips parted, our heated gazes intertwined. He closed his increasingly heated eyes and then opened them again, whispering:
“I don’t think I’m the only one who’s in a hurry.”
The hand stimulating my sensitive area moved quickly. My lower abdomen tensed. Even I could tell my body was rapidly yielding. I moaned softly and trembled.
“Are you done with work?”
“No, I have to go back out.”
Then, as if worried someone might hear, he whispered in my ear:
“Hyunwoo is waiting outside. He probably knows what we’re doing.”
“The bed—”
Before I could suggest going to the bedroom, he restrained my body. “I don’t have time for that,” he muttered, his voice low and husky. He laid me down on the sofa. Climbing on top of me, he pressed his lips against various parts of my body. His face, flushed with excitement, was exceedingly sexy as he touched and stimulated me.
I swallowed my breath as I felt the area he had been rubbing slowly opening up. A drop of sweat fell from him. No matter how many times we did this, I never got used to the beginning.
“Hnngh!”
As I gripped his shoulders tightly, he penetrated all the way. I cried out and clung to him. Excited, he gradually increased his pace and bit my lips.
“I thought I was going to die waiting for the news to break.”
I wanted to tell him that he didn’t need the pretext of a reward—he could do this whenever he wanted—but every time I tried to open my mouth, he stimulated me so intensely that only moans escaped.
I thought he wasn’t some kind of beast to think about this all day, but the pleasure he gave was so good that my mind went completely blank.
If we’re going to do this, let’s do it properly…
With my arms around Hajin’s neck, I bit his lips hard.
“Good job, baby Seo Hajin. But in the future, if you have material like that, you should also let me kno— ahh!”
When Hajin said “You’re getting cheeky” and scratched my chest as if clawing it, my body tensed. He began to deliberately stimulate all the spots where I felt the most pleasure. I trembled as if convulsing and clenched even harder. By this point, he would usually tell me to relax, but today he seemed truly in a rush and said nothing.
Hajin exhaled roughly. His eyebrows furrowed painfully, and he moved his body so quickly that I couldn’t handle it. All my senses rushed toward where the frictional heat was boiling.
“Fuck, it feels so alive.”
Uttering words I couldn’t comprehend, he roughly penetrated deeper and began to release everything he had.
It was a long, intense finish.
Hajin separated from me, briefly kissed my lips, and went to the bathroom. When he returned, he had a towel in his hand.
“What are you doing?”
“I’ll clean you up.”
“Didn’t you say Hyunwoo is waiting?”
“Mentioning another man while in bed— oof!”
I playfully threw a light punch toward his stomach. He also sat down, clutching his stomach with an exaggerated reaction.
“It wasn’t that long, so I can manage. Just go.”
“But still…”
Hajin hesitated as he wiped various parts of my body. I slapped his back with a smack, just like I would do to Hahyun. He blinked at me in surprise.
“Please listen to me. Are you becoming more like Hahyun too?”
Hajin dropped the towel and twitched his eyebrow.
“Getting cheeky again.”
“I’m not being cheeky. What are you doing making someone wait? Coming here during work hours is bad enough. Go quickly.”
I got up abruptly, enduring the pain from the still-sensitive area. I picked up the scattered clothes and approached him. I intended to help him dress, but as soon as I picked up his underwear, he frowned and took it from my hand.
“I get what you’re saying. The kid is becoming more and more of a nag, I swear.”
“You said the board meeting is in three days, right? If you’re going to do this, come back properly next time. Don’t make mistakes like last time.”
“Alright.”
Even though I heard him agree, I couldn’t understand why I felt so anxious. The video that had already spread to the public couldn’t be stopped no matter what, and the board meeting in a few days would end smoothly since Hahyun had promised to help.
“You can think of it as nagging if you want, but please don’t do things that worry me. We can sell that land anytime if needed.”
My voice grew progressively quieter as I spoke.
“We don’t need to sell it.”
A warm hand caressed my face. His curved eyes and upturned corners of his mouth seemed to express his mood. Looking at his smiling face, I quietly felt relieved.

Fashion Group H Board Meeting
A large banner was hung on the wall in front of the conference room. Hahyun walked into the meeting room with Assistant Manager Kang. Hajin, sitting in the front row, smiled lazily. Hahyun scoffed and whispered quietly to Sojeong.
“Why are there so many empty seats?”
“Why do you think? Because of that recent video…”
“Haa, can we even reach a quorum with this many people?”
“Well, I’m not sure what method was used, but I heard some of the outside directors involved in the scandal voluntarily resigned. Since that means their voting rights disappear entirely, I guess it doesn’t matter.”
Hahyun’s eyes widened. He hadn’t heard about this from Hajin.
Currently, Secretary Kim was keeping a low profile due to the video controversy. Hahyun knew from Sojeong that the prosecution, as if intending to drive someone to death, had only requested appearances from the other people in the video and hadn’t even summoned Secretary Kim.
“What on earth is Seo Hajin planning?”
Hahyun muttered to himself while checking the time. There were still about 20 minutes left until the board meeting. Hahyun walked over to Hajin and tapped the table.
“What?”
“Let’s talk.”
Hajin followed Hahyun with an expression that suggested he’d been expecting this. Sojeong quickly confirmed that there was no one in the emergency exit and contacted Hahyun. They both immediately went to the emergency exit.
“You’ve already won over Assistant Manager Kang. Wasn’t she originally Secretary Kim’s person?”
“Do you think Assistant Manager Kang followed Secretary Kim because she liked him? She had no choice but to follow her workplace superior, though she had many concerns. But that’s not the important thing. Are you planning to drive out all of Secretary Kim’s directors? I heard the prosecution hasn’t even requested Secretary Kim to appear for questioning?”
Hajin smiled meaningfully, as if impressed.
“Oh… You’ve become the CEO now? How about it? Why don’t you run it yourself?”
“Cut the bullshit.”
“The CEO has quite the foul mouth.”
Hahyun raised his eyebrows as if it wasn’t even worth responding to. Hajin, who had been giggling as if amused, quickly changed his expression to a serious one and spoke.
“First of all, you’re right that I’m going to get rid of the directors. But in a slightly different way.”
“In exchange for helping them end the prosecution investigation smoothly, you’re telling them to give up their board positions? And I bet you told them to sell their shares too.”
“That’s right! You’re smart, my little brother.”
“Then what about Secretary Kim? Aren’t you going to implicate him in this incident?”
Hajin slightly raised one corner of his mouth. The vicious expression he rarely showed at home sent chills down Hahyun’s spine.
“Since I’m going to implicate him with something even bigger than this incident, it’s currently under investigation.”
“What is it?”
Hahyun asked quickly, but Hajin didn’t answer. Instead, he lightly pinched Hahyun’s cheek and let go. Hahyun cursed “Fuck” and knocked away Hajin’s hand.
“I told you not to treat me like a child!”
“Young master doesn’t need to know. You only need to know about matters related to Yoon Juwon.”
“I’m asking because I’m curious. I need to be able to trust you!”
