Private Secretary Episode 30

 

Then she saw Tae-san sitting on the living room sofa, drying his hair with a towel while reading reports on his tablet in between.

 

She thought preventing him from taking his tablet PC from the company would work, but who knew there would be another tablet at home.

 

Just as she was sighing inwardly, Tae-san discovered Lee Seol in her ridiculous outfit and couldn’t take his eyes off her.

 

The corners of his mouth twitched as if they would rise at any moment, and she could see mischievous interest gleaming in his tired eyes.

 

“The clothes are a bit big… But since you gave them to me, I thought it would be polite to wear them.”

 

“I gave you the smallest ones I had, but I didn’t know they’d be that oversized.”

 

“Please stop working and go inside to sleep quickly. I’ll just close my eyes here for a bit.”

 

“My bedroom bed is quite spacious. Big enough for three people to lie down.”

 

Is he bragging that his room is large enough to fit such a bed?

 

“So there wouldn’t be any problem if we slept together.”

 

“Yes… what?”

 

“I feel bad about inviting you over and making you sleep on the sofa.”

 

“No way. How could I sleep in the Department Head’s bed? That’s absolutely ridiculous. This is more than enough for me, so don’t worry about it and go inside quickly.”

 

As soon as the words “sleep together” came out of Tae-san’s mouth, Lee Seol’s heart began pounding wildly.

 

“And this sofa probably costs more than the bed in my room. It would be much more comfortable too.”

 

“…”

 

“So please go inside quickly. It’s already past three o’clock.”

 

At Lee Seol’s urging, Tae-san silently rubbed his brow.

 

“…No, then I’ll sleep here. You go inside and sleep.”

 

“What?”

 

“I’m saying I’ll give you the bed.”

 

“What? But…”

 

What secretary in the world takes their boss’s bed to sleep in? Especially while making the boss sleep on the sofa.

 

“I’d feel too sorry about that.”

 

“Well then, there’s no choice.”

 

Tae-san put down his tablet PC, crossed his arms, and closed his eyes.

 

What is he doing?

 

“…Department Head?”

 

“If we can’t both be comfortable, then we’ll both have to be uncomfortable.”

 

“No, Department Head. You shouldn’t think of it that way…”

 

“Then go inside.”

 

“Why are you being so extreme? I’m telling you I’m comfortable enough here.”

 

“But I’m not comfortable.”

 

“Department Head.”

 

“If you sleep here, you’ll be physically uncomfortable, and I’ll be mentally uncomfortable. But if you sleep in my bed, we’ll both be completely comfortable. Which choice would be wise?”

 

“Lying in the Department Head’s bed makes me mentally uncomfortable. I’d feel too sorry to sleep.”

 

“Then sleep in the same bed together.”

 

“That would also be a bit uncomfortable…”

 

“Why? Are you worried I’ll snore?”

 

“…I’m worried that I might snore.”

 

“It’s fine. Once I fall asleep, I don’t really notice.”

 

Lee Seol, who never expected to have such a ridiculous argument at this hour of dawn, held her throbbing head.

 

And when she looked up again, Tae-san was already leaning back on the sofa with his arms crossed and eyes closed.

 

“Department Head. Stop being stubborn…”

 

“Who’s being stubborn?”

 

“Department Head.”

 

“And you should listen to me, not the other way around, right?”

 

Still, she couldn’t do that. Of all things, how could she take her boss’s bed?

 

No, how could she sleep in the bed of someone she liked?

 

Even if she had no feelings for him, it would be awkward, but when she did have feelings?

 

It was absolutely impossible, even if the sky split in two.

 

“Sigh… Then sleep uncomfortably together.”

 

“Ha.”

 

If Tae-san was going to be stubborn, Lee Seol had no choice but to act the same way.

 

While she would usually go along with Tae-san’s wishes, this time she couldn’t back down, so Lee Seol sat at the end of the L-shaped sofa, crossed her arms, and closed her eyes just like him.

 

She could feel his piercing gaze on her, but Lee Seol pretended not to notice and kept her eyes firmly shut.

 

That’s when it happened. She felt someone approaching, and then Tae-san’s fingertips touched the wound on her left cheek where the scab had almost completely fallen off.

 

Startled, Lee Seol opened her eyes and turned her head to see Tae-san, who had moved next to her.

 

Tae-san came a little closer to examine the wound.

 

“I thought it had completely healed, but you’ve been covering it with makeup all this time?”

 

“…Ah. This much is practically healed.”

 

“But it looks like it might leave a scar.”

 

“It’s fine.”

 

“How’s your shoulder?”

 

“The bruising has faded a lot, and it’s less stiff, so there’s no problem with daily life at all.”

 

“I’ve been too busy to pay attention. You got hurt because of me.”

 

“Strictly speaking, it was because of Kim Se-na. No wait, I got hurt trying to help her, so it’s just my fault. Oh, is Kim Se-na okay?”

 

“Fortunately, she’s fine. She had slight body aches the day after falling, but recovered quickly. That’s fortunate enough.”

 

Tae-san answered while shifting his gaze to other wounds on her face.

 

His unusually detailed response somehow made her heart ache, as if to show that Tae-san wasn’t only worried about Lee Seol’s injuries.

 

The moment Lee Seol looked away to hide her disappointment, she realized one thing: their faces had gotten quite close.

 

Meeting Tae-san’s deep eyes up close as he gazed at her intently felt like being drawn in.

 

It was as if only Tae-san and herself existed in this world, just the two of them.

 

Her head felt like it was spinning. Whether from fatigue or being overwhelmed by him in front of her.

 

She knew she should look away from him, but like someone experiencing sleep paralysis, she couldn’t move at all.

 

If only Tae-san had turned his head first, she could have used that as an excuse to back away, but Tae-san only stared at Lee Seol.

 

No, more precisely, he was looking at the wound below Lee Seol’s eyes.

 

The moment she realized this, Lee Seol found herself feeling disappointed. At the same time, she felt her heart beating violently as she became aware of his breath.

 

They were close enough that their lips would touch if she moved just a little forward. Lee Seol felt like a balloon endlessly inflating.

 

As if her heart was a pump injecting air, the faster it beat, the more her body seemed to swell.

 

She might burst at this rate. Really might burst…

 

Then Tae-san, who had been tilting his head slightly back, met her gaze head-on again.

 

An indescribable, intense gaze intertwined in the air.

 

Tae-san slowly tilted his head and naturally pressed their lips together.

 

“…!”

 

It was barely more than touching lips rather than a real kiss, but Lee Seol was so surprised she couldn’t move a finger.

 

Only after his lips briefly pulled away did she realize what had just happened.

 

But before she could protest about what this situation was, their lips met again.

 

The lips that met under Tae-san’s lead slowly rubbed together, unlike before.

 

Her heart was beating as if it would burst, but somehow strength kept draining from her hands.

 

When Lee Seol’s breathing quickened and she slightly parted her lips, Tae-san took it as permission and naturally slipped inside.

 

Then he powerfully embraced Lee Seol’s back with his other arm.

 

When Lee Seol carefully placed her arm on his shoulder, Tae-san pulled her closer and entwined her tongue.

 

“Mmh…”

 

Lee Seol’s eyes widened in embarrassment at the moan that escaped without her knowing, but Tae-san invaded deeper as if he hadn’t heard.

 

The hand that had been caressing her cheek gradually moved down to touch her nape, and at the same time, their lips separated.

 

While she was struggling to catch her breath that had become overwhelmingly hot, Tae-san tilted his head and pressed his lips to Lee Seol’s nape.

 

Hearing the soft sound of lips touching and pulling away, Lee Seol squeezed her eyes shut and gripped his shoulder tightly.

 

After teasingly rubbing with his lips and occasionally nipping sharply, Tae-san finally took her earlobe into his mouth.
