Chapter 113. Reconciliation (1)

It had already been five minutes while she waited for Lee-Seob in the parking lot. Perhaps due to the increased workload and stress, coupled with the diet he was now on to look perfect for the photo shoot, he had missed his morning workouts in recent days. Since he didn’t answer his phone, she decided to go up to his apartment.

She first pressed the doorbell several times, but as there was no response she used the code and entered the apartment.

“Director, I’m here.”

Minkyung called out loud, but inside there was only silence. She then went to the kitchen, took out cold water from the refrigerator and poured a glass. She put it on a tray with a napkin and headed to his bedroom.

“Director.”

When she knocked on the door, a deeply sleepy voice answered,

“Umm…”

“I’m coming in.”

Minkyung opened the bedroom door, placed the tray on the nightstand and walked to the window to open the curtains. The early morning sunlight poured into the bedroom. After he rubbed his face and stretched, he sat up in bed and drank the water. His well-defined upper body was exposed.

Minkyung circled the bed and stood in front of Lee-Seob. He put down the glass, picked up the napkin and wiped the water from his lips.

“What time do you think it is?”

He immediately raised his hand, as if to indicate that he knew.

“A few minutes late.”

“Are you tired?”

“Yes.”

“Well, I’ve already packed your work clothes in the car for after the gym. Just wash your face, get dressed and come down.”

“Shouldn’t I shave?”

Minkyung bent down to examine his face.

“Um… you look fine. I don’t think it’s necessary…”

“Actually, I shaved last night while taking a shower.”

‘At night? It’s not typical, but some people do it.’

When Minkyung extended her hand to help him up, he grasped it tightly.

“To kiss you in the morning.”

“What?”

Lee-Seob pulled her to sit on his lap. With his arm firmly around her waist, she was unable to resist. All she could do was pull down her skirt, which had ridden up.

The clothes she wore today were also sent by him. It was a flashy silk blouse with a remarkable pattern and a plain flared skirt. The soft material made contact with him feel even more vivid.

Lee-Seob moved her body a little closer to his. Minkyung made no further attempt to push his muscular arm from around her waist. Her eyes roamed over his well-defined pecs and landed on his handsome face.

“Why don’t you try to resist more? Do you like my body that much, Senior Manager Kang?”

He asked with a smile. Minkyung didn’t respond, but instead carefully examined his body again.

‘See-ah said that he would be as perfect as a professional model if his body fat percentage was at 9-10%. However, he hasn’t reached that point yet. When measured yesterday, it was 10.9%. Still, he should be able to stand out in the photo shoot with his current physique.’

“Kang Minkyung.”

Lee-Seob gently lifted her chin and looked into her eyes.

“When I ask you a question, don’t analyze it. Just answer from the heart and you’ll see how happy you make me.”

“Ah…”

“I’ve worked hard for this body. Do you like it?”

“Yes, I like it.”

“Good!”

Lee-Seob kissed her. She could smell a mint scent through his parted lips. She found it suspicious. In fact, he had planned this moment. He knew she would come to wake him up, so he swallowed some mints and pretended to be asleep. That was the reason there was a pack of mints on the nightstand.

Lee-Seob, who moved his tongue slowly inside her mouth to enjoy the kiss, said,

“Did I do it right?”

“Yes, I loved it.”

She felt him stiffen for a moment at her response. He then pulled her by the waist to press his hot body against hers and their lips met again.
