ficult to explain.

“What?”

He grabbed my chin with a strong force and forced my face up.
When the hit side was pressed with the thumb without mercy, a piercing pain welled up and tears welled up.
When he saw it, his silver-grey eyes lit up.

“You…”

“Director!”

At the same time as Yoo Shi-hyuk opened his mouth, Kwon Se-hyun’s cry resounded.
Kwon Se-hyun, who dropped the plastic bag he was holding on the floor, ran at an urgent pace and intervened between me and Yoo Shi-hyuk.

“What are you doing?”

Yoo Shi-hyuk, who had missed me, clicked his tongue with a look of displeasure.

“You are fast.
Did you run?”

“This is my employee.
Don’t touch him.”

“Tsk, nagging.”

Yoo Shi-hyuk, who lightly shook off his fist a couple of times, straightened his bent waist.

“Isn’t it okay if he said honestly from the beginning? He resembles his owner, you two are equally stupid.”

“Director.”

“Alright.
I knew.”

Yoo Shi-hyuk, who wrinkled his brow furrowed annoyedly, pulled a cigarette out of his pocket and put it into his mouth.

“I just touched him a bit, you’re already freaking out.
If he did well, would he get hit in the stomach?”

“Don’t be silly.
It was Director who refused twice my request not to come to the store and even touched the employee.”

“You talk a lot, Se-hyun-ah.
Did you already done that with that bastard?”

“……”

“Or did he just become so arrogant… ah, you poor thing.”

“Please go.
The car is waiting below.”

“Ung.
I was about to leave anyway.
Seeing me off is…”

Yoo Shi-hyuk, who looked at me and Kwon Se-hyun again, laughed briefly and turned his back.

“There’s no way you can do it.”

Yoo Shi-hyuk left the office with the smell of cigarette smoke.
As soon as the door closed, Kwon Se-hyun got down on his knees and checked my condition.

“Where are you hurt?”

“It’s not… that bad.”

I pushed Kwon Se-hyun away and tried to get up, but as I breathed in, the throbbing pain felt in my stomach.
It had been a while since I had been hit like this, so it was very difficult for me to get used to it.

“Ha… I’ll bring you some medicine, wait.”

When I staggered into the bathroom, Kwon Se-hyun looked for the medicine box he had left in the corner of the office.
My left thigh was sore, making it quite difficult to move.
I must have fallen to the floor in the wrong way.

“Ugh.”

Checking my face in the mirror, I sighed.
I didn’t get hit that much, but Han Yi-gyeol’s face was particularly badly injured.
I didn’t know how long had it been since my face was already swollen.

‘I’m screwed…’

I put my hands on the sink and lowered my head.
The right corner of my mouth and eye, which was hit hard, was swollen and torn, bleeding.
The area was also wide, so it wasn’t in a state where it could be hidden from others.

After wiping off the blood and washing my hands, Kwon Se-hyun, who was sitting on the sofa, tapped the seat in front of him.

“Sit down.”

I thought about whether I should just take the medicine and treat myself, but then I became annoyed and walked over to the sofa, staggering.
As I sat facing Kwon Se-hyun, he squeezed the ointment into the cotton swab.

“Close your eyes.”

As I meekly closed my eyes, a stinging pain came over my lips as well as the sensation of a cotton swab being pressed against my lips.
Kwon Se-hyun, who applied medicine to all the torn wounds, took out the band and said.

“I think we should put the ice packs, too.
Wait, I ordered Go Dong-ju to make ice…”

“No.
It’s enough to apply the ointment.”

“Still…”

“It’s really okay.
If possible, I don’t want to show this to other people.”

“Useless stubbornness.”

Kwon Se-hyun, who tore off the band wrapper, put two bands on the wound.
It was fortunate that the torn part wasn’t long.

‘I’m sure everyone will find out in less than a day… How am I supposed to explain this?’

A wound like this could be healed immediately with Min Ah-rin’s healing ability, but the process seemed to be very difficult.
While fiddling with the band on my face, I came up with various excuses and Kwon Se-hyun opened his mouth in a low voice.

“I’m sorry.
I left him alone.”

“Well… it’s okay.
I didn’t expect him to come back, either.”

“This will never happen again.”

“I’m really, really, okay.”

Kwon Se-hyun, who was staring at me with a complicated expression, shrugging his shoulders, brought a plastic bag that was lying near the office door.

“Here.”

He handed me a black mask and a hat.
Everything else in the bag was cigarettes.
It must have been a cigarette that Yoo Shi-hyuk ordered him to buy.

Cigarettes that weren’t available in this area must have taken some time to buy.

“I brought this because I thought it would be helpful when you left, but if I had known it would be like this, I would have just come sooner.”

“No.
It must be useful.”

It was necessary to cover my face in this situation.
After receiving the mask and hat, I asked Kwon Se-hyun.

“Can I spend some time here without going downstairs until dark?”

I didn’t want to walk around the store as it was now.
Kwon Se-hyun, who understood my feelings, took out a pain reliever and permission.

“Sleep on the sofa.
I will make sure no one comes in.”

I didn’t think I needed a break that much, but when I took the medicine and laid down on the sofa, the tension was relieved and sleepiness came like a wave.

As I blinked slowly at the rapidly blurring consciousness, Kwon Se-hyun took off the suit jacket he was wearing and covered it with me.
Without hesitation, I fell asleep.
