Sunwoo clicked his tongue, placed his phone down, and opened the drink bottle, bringing it to his nose. There was a faint scent of soybeans.

It was probably soy milk. Thankfully, there was no unpleasant smell, so Sunwoo decided to take a sip.

“Ah, it’s good.”

It was mild, nutty, and subtly sweet, probably due to added sugar or honey.

Sunwoo drank the soy milk down in one go, savoring it.

“I should’ve tried this sooner!”

Finishing half of it in one go, Sunwoo set the glass bottle down, licking his lips. He had been eating tofu diligently, but now he regretted not thinking of soy milk earlier.

He then poked at the salad with his fork and brought a bite to his mouth. The lettuce, with its faint fragrance, and the peach salad he had been enjoying recently were sweet and crisp, making it delicious. His eyes shifted to the sandwich that was made to be easy to eat.

“It’s not egg, is it?”

The slightly yellow color made him worry it might taste off. Sunwoo took a deep breath, exhaled, and nervously brought the sandwich to his nose.

“Oh... it’s fine.”

There was no unpleasant eggy smell, so it passed the test. He took a bite, and the sweet taste spread in his mouth. After eating without much thought, Sunwoo looked down at the empty lunchbox with a satisfied smile and gently rubbed his stomach.@@novelbin@@

“Little bean, did you eat well too?”

* Hey! Choi Sunwoo!

* Where are you right now? And why haven’t you been answering? Why are you only calling now?

* Hello? What’s going on? It’s not disconnected! Hey! Choi Sunwoo!

* Yeah, yeah... What? You’re answering with “yeah” now?

* Oh, Haewon? Yeah, she’ll stay there for a few more days. Since it’s dangerous during her heat cycle, she’ll come back when she’s stable.

* Meet her? Well… actually, after I regained consciousness, I found out Haewon had been looking for me. Secretary Gwak got in touch with me.

* Oh, heh… actually, I reacted a bit to Haewon’s pheromones. You know how Omega pheromones during heat are kind of alluring, right? Without realizing it, I tried to approach her, but then Director Kang released his Alpha pheromones. Bam! I totally blacked out in one hit.

* I passed out too. When I came to, everything had already been sorted. Haewon was getting treated in a room by a doctor, and we were preparing for the morning flight back.

* You know, it seems like Director Kang has better manners than I thought. He helps his staff when things get tough, right?

* When are you coming back to Seoul?

* So you’re really planning to live there?
