Is that guy next door to me?
9. A confession made by chance


Jaemin desperately tries to cover his face.

김여주
I've already seen it all.

김여주
Are you going to do it right?


나재민
...(cough) Uh, yeah...

김여주
Please guide me to where the chairman is.


비서
That is absolutely not allowed.


비서
If you stay here and the chairman comes, then...

김여주
Oh, really? I understand.


나재민
...


비서
Young Master, why didn't you apply the medicine?


비서
Your face looks worse than before...


나재민
This way it will be less accurate.


나재민
My father won't let his face be completely ruined.


나재민
Because I am needed the most at the company.

김여주
Still, apply it... What if you leave a scar on your pretty face?

The secretary secretly laughs at the female lead's words.


나재민
yes?

The frustrated female lead eventually decided to apply it herself.

김여주
It can be hot.


나재민
(embarrassed) No, my lady... You don't have to go this far...


나재민
I'll apply it myself! Please!

Jaemin quickly took the medicine from Yeoju's hand.

김여주
Is that true?


나재민
sure.

Jaemin smiled slightly as if relieved and showed himself applying the medicine.

김여주
Well done.

Meanwhile, the secretary next to me suddenly looked serious and hurriedly left.


나재민
...


나재민
I see you're here.

It was a very tense moment for the heroine.

As soon as the chairman entered, the air became cold,

The female protagonist changed the atmosphere by persuading the chairman with her excellent speaking skills.

The chairman asked the female lead if she liked Jaemin.

The female protagonist ended up making a public confession.


비서
(laugh)


나재민
ah...

After all the persuasion was over and the chairman left.


나재민
My Lady, how can I repay you... Thank you so much.


나재민
Are you lying about liking me?

김여주
No? I mean it.


나재민
...


비서
Sir, did you see it?


비서
I was right, after all.


비서
I am also very grateful to the Lady.

김여주
Secretary, why are you grateful?

김여주
Honestly, did you two make a bet or something?


비서
(Laughs) I didn't suggest doing it first.

Jaemin remained silent.


비서
ah,


비서
Because the master still can't forget Junhee...


비서
I think you're feeling a bit mentally unstable right now.


비서
Thank you for your understanding.

김여주
...I know.

김여주
But please think about the person next to you.

김여주
It's better not to have any regrets about someone who has left.


나재민
I know that too, but the human mind is like that,


나재민
It's not easy.


나재민
I think I need some time to sort things out.


나재민
Anyway, you confessed to me... right?

김여주
sure.

김여주
I want to meet you, Jaemin.


비서
(Laughs) Sir, honestly, it suits you very well.


비서
I also felt bad seeing the master always thinking only of Junhee.


비서
Forget the person who left and start anew...


나재민
Please go back first.


나재민
I'm so grateful for what happened today. I don't think I'll ever forget it.


나재민
I'll contact you when I'm sure of it.

김여주
All right.

김여주
Don't feel pressured, just take your time and think about it...

김여주
Then I'll go out.


비서
Yes, please go in carefully.


비서
Thank you so much for today.


비서
Thanks to you, I can now work comfortably.

김여주
(Laughs) See you again.

The female protagonist returns home,

Jaemin was left alone and thought for a long time.


나재민
...

But after a few days, there was no contact,

The female protagonist, tired of waiting, decides to go see him again.

김여주
I told him to think slowly, but he really did think slowly.

김여주
It's slower than a turtle.

김여주
(sigh)

Yeo-ju, who was heading towards Jae-min's company,

I happened to spot Jaemin coming out in front of the restaurant.

But Jaemin's condition is quite serious.

???
Oh my, isn't that guy that guy?

???
I think I saw it on the news... He's a very popular rich guy.

The heroine looked around at the people and then approached Jaemin.

김여주
No, how much alcohol did you drink!?


나재민
uh?


나재민
Junhee!!


나재민
I miss you so so so much...

Jaemin continued to hug Yeoju.

김여주
(In an urgent voice) Glasses? Where did you put your glasses?


나재민
Hmm? It was definitely there earlier.


나재민
Jjuni took it?!


나재민
I know everything. (Drunken laughter)

Jaemin, who had always thought that the female lead was Junhee,

He wanted to see her so badly that he ended up kissing her in front of everyone.

김여주
...!

김여주
Zeno, why are you like this! Go quickly.


나재민
Huh? Zeno?


나재민
Who is Zeno!


나재민
I...~~ Jae,

김여주
no!
