We decided not to cross the line.

Episode 8. A Subtle Love Triangle

"Wait a minute, class schedules are usually handled through Nana or Jimin's manager."

Didn't you catch it?

Hunji, is there really a reason for you to take care of it yourself?



The representative raised his voice slightly.



The representative stared at him quietly for a moment.

The usually relaxed expression lasted only for a very brief moment,

It seemed to have subtly hardened.



Ah, that is because sometimes I give you the class materials in the middle of class.

So.

I think it was probably uncomfortable for them.

Last time, one piece of data was missing.




I quickly stepped between the two.




"is it so?"



The representative asked back briefly and relaxed his expression.

What should I say in response to the representative's question about the class proposal?

While I was thinking,

I am becoming more and more troubled between the two,

I became confused.





Since it is Hunji's personal number, I will be more careful.

You don't have to worry, CEO.



And, thank you very much for the suggestion.

However, since I am taking classes while doing translation work...

I'm a bit hesitant about whether I can take on more classes here.

I think it will be necessary.





As soon as I finished speaking, Hunji's gaze rested on me.

Strangely enough,

His expression seemed to have softened a little compared to just moments ago.





I'm not asking for an answer right now.

Instead, the sooner the better.

If it doesn't work out with Jeong-ah, I'll have to look for another teacher as well.

Because I did.




Yes... I understand what you mean.

I'll think it over,

I will contact you as soon as possible.





The representative smiled faintly.



Can I expect a positive answer?




"Representative, please don't put the teacher in a difficult position."




Whether or not to continue the class was ultimately a matter for me to decide.

But those two... what's up with them?

 



It felt like the sushi I had enjoyed was stuck in my throat.





"The way I see it, Hoonji, I think you're the one overreacting."



The representative chuckled.




They are actors from our agency, so why are you acting so sensitive?





With his gaze fixed downward, Hunji

He just silently fiddled with the water glass.

Like someone who felt guilty for no reason...





Am I secretly quite ambitious about studying?

Come to think of it, even though they are from the same agency

Anyway, you could consider them a competitor...





Just then, the CEO's cell phone rang.



Oh, I'm sorry.

Jeong-ah, I think I should leave first.



Saying that the afternoon appointment was suddenly moved up,

The representative left first without even finishing the meal.

He left.




A strange silence fell over the dining table where only the two of them remained.

I didn't know what to say, so I just gulped down water for no reason.



"Teacher... do you intend to take on more classes?"




"Well... I have some spare time right now, so it's fine, but..."




You must be busy if you take on other classes as well..

I need someone to focus on me.

If you decide to take on other classes as well...



His speech dragged on strangely.

For some reason, if I listen any longer,

I think an awkward topic might come up.

He quickly continued speaking.

 

The exact schedule hasn't been set yet, but

I decided to start writing a novel soon.

Then, since time is tight, wouldn't it probably be difficult?

I want to



Right?



He smiled with a somewhat relieved expression.



You do translation work too...

It would be difficult for you if the number of classes increased too much.



Then, feeling great, he continued speaking.



That's the problem with the CEO..

I told you, he always puts himself first.



He laughed softly.



There are still many people who want my class.

I haven't rusted yet.



But he's the one who asked to be the only one in charge, too.



I let out a chuckle without realizing it.



After that awkward and tense meal came to an end,

I got his phone number.



I'm exchanging messages with a celebrity using a private number

To think we became close.

It was a very exciting day.

It must have been because I ended up exchanging numbers with a celebrity...


Strangely enough, what kept coming to mind was not "actor Park Hoon-ji," but,

It was 'Hunji,' who smiled and gave me his number.



On the way home,

I briefly wondered how to save his name.

I usually save only the first name without the last name, or

For close people, change it cutely according to the pronunciation, and

I often put a heart mark on it so I can recognize it quickly.



Park Hoon-ji feels a bit stiff...

Hunji?



okay!!

Student Hunji



That night, his message arrived.





""I'm a little disappointed..."
