Ye-sol turned his head toward where Daisy was.
It seemed like it had said something…
“And that thing I saw in the car earlier… do you always put it in your behind?”
“Oh, um, no…”
Ye-sol’s face turned bright red. He had completely forgotten that his pants had been pulled down in the car due to the day’s events. But he couldn’t reveal that it was guide Min-hwan who had done it.
If he said he did it himself, it was obvious what Team Leader Kye would think, so Ye-sol just opened and closed his mouth like a fish. Fortunately, the team leader didn’t press further.
“If any of the team members forced you to do that… I’m not in a position to say this, but… anyway, if that’s the case, don’t hold back and let me know.”
Team Leader Kye spoke with a calmer and kinder face than ever before. That alone showed how much he cared for Ye-sol.
‘I, I… I’ll really do better from now on…’
‘Oh…’
‘Don’t… leave me… alone…’
It must have been truly sincere. Ye-sol was happy that Team Leader Kye seemed to be expressing his honest feelings to him. So Ye-sol decided to respond in kind.
“Team leader, you know…”
Ye-sol spoke carefully to Kye Sung-gi, who had just put a biscuit in his mouth.
“I… was actually glad to see that side of you. It feels like we’ve gotten a little closer… hehe.”
“…”
Ye-sol stuck out his tongue shyly and smiled. Looking at his childlike smile, Team Leader Kye stared at Ye-sol as if entranced, then asked:
“Who were you waiting for?”
“What? Oh, no one…”
“I already know why I came.”
At his firm tone indicating that lies were useless, Ye-sol answered with a gloomy face.
“Min-hwan and Dong-jeong.”
“What were you planning to do together?”
“That’s…”
When he hesitated at Kye’s questioning, Kye suddenly grabbed Ye-sol’s hand. It was not just warm but burning hot.
“T-team leader?”
“Ye-sol, I…”
As Team Leader Kye was about to say something while looking at Ye-sol with intense eyes.
Bang bang bang!
Someone knocked on the door vigorously.
Ye-sol gently removed Kye’s hand and opened the door. As expected, it was Ye Min-hwan and Hwang Dong-jeong.
“Ye-sol Hyung!”
“Welcome.”
Ye-sol greeted Min-hwan with a bright face. Meanwhile, Hwang Dong-jeong stood with his head bowed low. It was somewhat sad to see him returned to his original state as when they’d met at the hospital.
“This…”
Dong-jeong couldn’t even make eye contact with Ye-sol as he awkwardly handed over a box he was holding.
“What’s this?”
“A present… for you.”
“Wow, really? Thank you! Dong-jeong!”
Ye-sol jumped up on the spot after receiving the gift. In his joy, he hugged both of them simultaneously, causing Min-hwan, who was caught in the middle against his chest, to cry out.
“Oh, Min-hwan. Sorry!”
“Haah… It’s okay. I thought I might set a Guinness record for death by chest suffocation…”
Min-hwan sighed as he entered the room. He made direct eye contact with Team Leader Kye Sung-gi who was sitting at the table.
“Oh, what… We have a guest.”
Though he said this, Min-hwan didn’t seem particularly surprised. Rather, with a very calm gaze, he approached and sat down next to him.
“Team Leader.”
Then, looking at Ye-sol and Dong-jeong, he quietly called out to Team Leader Kye.
“Why are you here?”
“I just had some business.”
“Seems like you’ve finished your business, but we have matters to attend to.”
“What business do you have?”
“Hah…”
Min-hwan was dumbfounded. It was even more so because he knew this was the type of person who should take the hint and leave. He decided not to back down if Manager Kye was going to be like this.
“You seem to know exactly what we’re going to do here… right, Team Leader?”
“As you know, within the team, unless it’s guiding, anything that would burden a guide…”
“I saw everything you did with that guide in your car.”
“…!”
It was a bombshell declaration. Team Leader Kye’s face, which had remained calm throughout, contorted. He never imagined Min-hwan would directly check his car’s black box footage.
“That was a mis-“
“A mistake? Are you planning to just call it a mistake and move on? Wow… I’m sure that guide Hyung would be thrilled to hear that, right?”
“…”
Guide Min-hwan was right. It would be extremely irresponsible to dismiss it as just a mistake. Sung-gi felt ashamed of himself in that moment. He had done something he couldn’t be proud of, both as the Jibural team leader and to Guide Ha Ye-sol. After a moment of contemplation, Sung-gi nodded.
“…I admit it.”
“You do? Then now…”
“Therefore, I’ll stay even more. As the Jibural team leader. And… as an Esper.”
Team Leader Kye, who spoke firmly, looked at Ye-sol who was eating the chocolate he had received as a gift. His eyes were filling with vitality. He seemed to have made a firm decision.
‘Ah, damn… It backfired.’
Min-hwan felt a surge of irritation. He hadn’t expected Team Leader Kye to respond this way. He was trying to drive him away somehow since Kye was an unwelcome guest, unlike Dong-jeong…
“Huh? What were you two talking about?”
Sensing that Sung-gi and Min-hwan’s expressions were unusual, Ye-sol asked with an innocent face. The chocolate must have been exceptionally delicious, as it was messily smeared around his mouth. Despite being a grown adult and not a child, having such stains made Ye-sol appear lovable in both men’s eyes.
Swish.
“Guide Ha Ye-sol…”
“Hyung, come here. Let me wipe that for you.”
Min-hwan was faster than Sung-gi, who had grabbed tissues from the table. He abruptly stood up and licked the chocolate off Ye-sol’s lips with his tongue.
“Uh, uhm? Min… mmm… mm…”
Even as Ye-sol stammered in confusion, Min-hwan was relentless. Rather, he firmly grabbed Ye-sol’s waist as he tried to avoid him and extended his tongue further, invading the gap between his lips.
Even when it seemed enough, Min-hwan didn’t remove his tongue. Instead, the wet sounds grew progressively louder. Even as Ye-sol struggled to breathe, Min-hwan inserted his tongue into his mouth and stirred the mucous membrane. As if not giving any room, he made slurping sounds, gulping down saliva, and opened his mouth wide to suck on Ye-sol’s lips.
“Hm, hmm… Mi, Min-hwaan, ahnmm…”
A confused Ye-sol rolled his eyes around and grabbed Min-hwan’s head. He could easily separate their lips by firmly pulling the small hair, but he didn’t want to overpower him by force. Knowing this, Min-hwan kissed him even more explicitly.
“Peo, hmm… peopl, hic! Mmmmm…!”
Ye-sol was extremely embarrassed. Despite having done all sorts of things naked with the Jibural team members before, being seen kissing like this was incredibly mortifying.
“…”
“…”
Whether they understood this feeling or not, Sung-gi and Dong-jeong were watching the two kiss live. Both their faces turned red with jealousy, and though they knew they should step in and stop it, they didn’t hastily intervene.
Strangely, just seeing Ye-sol feeling shameful was arousing.
Smack, slurp…
“Haah, it was really sweet…”
