Chapter 76
Yoon Tae-seo stepped into the house, glancing around awkwardly. Perhaps it was because of Kang Se-heon’s confession, but the enclosed space suddenly felt overwhelmingly small.
Without realizing it, Tae-seo raised a hand to his neck. The gift he had received along with Se-heon’s kiss earlier was caught between his fingers. The necklace had already warmed to his body temperature, yet his hand kept fiddling with the pendant as if it still felt foreign.
As soon as Tae-seo took off his shoes and stepped inside, he turned around abruptly. This left Kang Se-heon, who had been following right behind him, to stop in surprise. Se-heon gave him a questioning look, but Tae-seo averted his gaze. Blocking Se-heon’s path yet refusing to move aside, Tae-seo cleared his throat a few times before finally speaking.
"We’re dating now, right?"
"Then what were we before? Friends? A one-night stand? Just passing acquaintances? Did you already forget that you were the one who confessed to me with a bouquet?"
Se-heon narrowed his eyes, his expression asking why Tae-seo felt the need to redefine their relationship now. But Tae-seo had his reasons.
"I think we need to make our relationship public."
His resolve had only strengthened after meeting Kang In-hyuk.
"Otherwise, there’s no way this will work out."
If they wanted In-hyuk to persuade Han Mi-sun, there was no chance she would listen in her current state.
"How about making it official? Stamping it in ink, declaring that I belong to you?"
"Not a bad idea."
