Chapter 9.6
The nurse cheerfully bowed her head and greeted Choi Hyun-mi, who entered dressed in a white coat. Haewon nodded his head in greeting, but even the {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} slight movement caused his whole body to ache.
"Haewon, are you feeling okay now?"
"Yes. I’m fine."
"Hyun Woojin was really worried. I think he stopped by here in the morning before heading to work."
Choi Hyun-mi placed her hand on Haewon’s forehead. The slightly cold touch made Haewon feel a sense of relief as his vision cleared. After taking Haewon’s temperature, Hyun-mi’s hand disappeared into the pocket of her white coat. Seeing Hyun Woojin’s mother made Haewon feel an overwhelming longing to see him. He was eager to see him so much that he could hardly bear the impatience.
"You're a junior to Woojin, right? The case with the stalker, it was Woojin who handled it."
Though some key details were missing, it was all true. Haewon nodded slightly.
"Please bring me some food. Bring it as soon as you can."
Choi Hyun-mi said to the nurse, who stood there waiting, and the nurse hurriedly went out.
"Your parents are abroad, so you live alone? Woojin was really worried. He’s the type who worries when there’s no one to take care of you. Our son isn’t like that."
"I owe a lot to your son. I’ll be sure to repay you later."
The fact that he cared for him, especially in front of his mother, made Haewon’s chest swell with pride, and he felt a warmth wash over him like a spring breeze. Suddenly, the world seemed different.
