Chapter 20.1
Taekyung got out of the driver's seat and strode towards So-young, who was crouching down. She took in a long breath with her arms wrapped around her knees. She thought she was prepared enough, but the moment she met Taekyung's eyes, too much tension came up, and her heart was even reconciled.
“…….”
The two stared at each other without saying a word, leaving a distance of about a step away. So-young blinked slowly. Perhaps it was because she looked up from a seated state, Taekyung was taller than usual and had a majestic body. Her heart was beating so fast that it was uncomfortable.
Taekyung let out a short laugh as he stared at So-young, who was trapped in his shadow.
"You look like a puppy."
"…Me?"
When So-young, who asked in front of her, asked with a puzzled face, Taekyung shook his head.
“Isn’t there a famous Pavlov experiment?”
"If that's the case…"
"Whenever I see you, I like to test and watch your reaction."
“…….”
"I think you're like a dog that's been tamed to respond to stimuli unconditionally.”
The words spoken with a gentlemanly face were plain. So-young dropped her gaze to the ground on the road. Even though it was a chilly day, her ears heated up.
Han So-young are you okay? For a man… Actually, I didn't keep my virginity intact because she wanted to protect it… Anyway, am I confident that I won't regret giving him the chastity I've been protecting for 28 years?
So-young asked herself as if giving her the last chance, and she came up with a meaningless quick answer.
It's totally okay.
So-young found that she was unlikely to meet a man like Taekyung in her future. In addition, he was born with a body that she could enjoy, and she didn't want to lose it now.
So-young, who made up her mind, shook her seat with a firm expression and stood up. While facing Taekyung straight, she licked her lips that had dried up.
"If you're talking about Pavlov's experiment…"
“…….”
"I don't think I'm the only one who reacts like that."
Taekyung's eyes shook weakly in response to a highly provocative response. However, for a while, he smiled faintly and looked through So-young carefully. As if trying to gauge what's happening in her head.
“Isn’t it your specialty to look innocent and direct?”
“…….”
"I'm starting to worry because you're different from usual. What's really going on?"
The voice asking like that was so sweet that So-young wanted to cover her ears for some reason.
"No, there's nothing like that."
So-young didn't want to tell Tae-kyung what thoughts and emotions were behind such an impulsive decision because she would be so embarrassed if he found out about her feelings. So instead of voicing her thoughts, she changed the subject.
"You said you had something to do today. Didn't I interrupt your important appointment?"
"Not at all."
So-young had nothing to say due to Taekyung's firm denial. It was time for her to tap the ground with her toes. He reached out and gently grabbed her chin.
“It’s not something we should be talking about as I ran all the way here like a madman without having to think about the problem when you asked me to come.”
“…….”
"It's actually better not to do things that you regret."
When their eyes met, Taekyung's lips bent gently. The eyes of So-young were sweeter than usual. He asked her once again.
"Are you sure you're okay?"
It was a foul to be polite at such a moment, even though he usually said dirty and racy things. So-young took a long breath and tilted her cheek on Taekyung's palm. The familiar warmth relieved the tension-stained mind a little.
“I think I’ve been looking for opportunities to regret for quite some time.”
“…….”
"So I'm okay."
So-young hugged Taekyung's waist with her arms and leaned her cheek against his chest. It was just a hug, but she was as nervous as when she did something really intimate.
Taekyung stiffened for a moment, then grabbed her shoulder and pulled her. As her whole body was pressed against him, the erect object was crushed on So-young's upper stomach. She felt a burning sensation and lifted her head.
Taekyung was staring at So-young with an unfamiliar expression. The black pupils were so dark that the pupils and iris were indistinguishable that there was more lust than ever, and the straight-closed lips seemed to suppress something.
After a moment of silence, Taekyung asked with a smiley voice.
“I think I just gave you an indulgence like that, so I can be greedy, right?”
“…….”
“If it’s not a frivolous thought, I hope you don’t regret it.”
So-young lowered her trembling eyelids, blocking her view. It was hard for her to bear the feeling of her heart beating. She nodded her head briefly as her well-groomed fingertips lightly traced her lips.
