Chapter 77: Where Beans Are Planted, Beans Grow
As Cha Eui-jae mechanically stroked the black hair leaning on him while staring at the white wall, he suddenly looked down at the head resting against him.
'...Huh?'
He felt a peculiar chill where their skin touched, he sensed something was off. Though he had seen many people chained while working with Jung Bin in the past, he had never seen it affect someone's body to this extent.
When Cha Eui-jae gently pushed Lee Sa-young to check his face, a slow hand grabbed his arm. However, the grip was weak, more like it was placed there than grasping firmly.
Lee Sa-young, lifting his head, slightly moved his lips.
"...Where."
"Yeah?"
"Where are you going again?"
Cha Eui-jae could feel more strength in the fingers touching his arm. Would his fingers break? Despite knowing it wouldn't happen, the rising anxiety was inevitable. Cha Eui-jae quickly patted the hand holding his arm, trying to soothe him.
"I'm not going anywhere, idiot. Where would I go?"
"..."
Facing eyes that had as much trust in him as a grain of pepper, Cha Eui-jae closed his mouth. Did we have such little trust between us? Why? Cha Eui-jae pursed his lips.
