Chapter 124: Short
A look of sudden fatigue appeared on Jung Bin's face. He seemed to have a lot to say, but he tried his best to come up with a moderate response.
"A secret meeting? Anyone who hears that might misunderstand."
"If it's not a secret meeting..."
The hand that was wrapped around Cha Eui-jae's shoulder tightened slightly.
"...then what could two people possibly be doing alone at this late hour?"
"..."
"Did you talk bad about me or something?"
Cha Eui-jae knew from experience that if he let this continue, Lee Sa-young would definitely lose his temper. He couldn't let that happen— he still had things to hear from Jung Bin! Urgently, Cha Eui-jae grabbed the hand that was wrapped around his shoulder. The black-gloved fingers flinched slightly. Cha Eui-jae, with difficulty, called out his name.
"Lee... Lee Sa-young?"
'Shit.'
His voice came out more strained than he expected. It was hard to act like usual after realizing that Lee Sa-young was the boy he had been looking for, and that he had kept the selfish promise even after coming back from the brink of death. All his past experience seemed useless in front of Lee Sa-young.
However, Lee Sa-young, who had been called by name, responded as if he had been waiting for it, moving his body slightly. He raised the corners of his lips like a satisfied cat and tilted his head.
