“Ah…”d955a701eb7fc941

Joo Taehyun, who creaked 20a71f868a for a moment like f4dd249012 a poorly oiled robot, e7f1e1fc9d soon shook his head e99e2a7158 briefly.980731086e71f901

Seo Baekhan, after reviewing Joo Taehyun’s drug test results, asked him if he remembered everyone he was seeing and sleeping with. From Seo Baekhan’s perspective, it was something he had to check.3703a85b6b02f9fd

‘This isn’t about whether or not I’m marrying you. I absolutely cannot stand the thought of seeing you in the news with a headline like “〈Hatch〉 Member Mr. Joo Involved in Scandalous Incident.”‘087c3106ed53a29c

Even after Seo Baekhan e8a660eff1 had explained it in 17b82a3ad5 a way that was c343caec4e kind, Joo Taehyun remained 0a6280b708 stiff and speechless.97ac014990c36472

Seo Baekhan chose to stand still and wait for him to react properly. It wasn’t to give him time to think or compose himself. It was to pressure Joo Taehyun, who would find it impossible to endure without opening his mouth.1c8d1754a2199b35

‘I don’t have anyone I’m seeing right now… and, the people I’ve slept with in the meantime…’726234e8450a888b

As expected, it was Joo Taehyun’s defeat. He managed to open his mouth, but hesitated for a long time, keeping the most important words hidden inside.02ba349a83746c7f

Whether he choked or wanted to avoid the situation… in any case, Joo Taehyun coughed quite violently for a while.423549c8b0c47ccc

‘I don’t have those kinds of tastes… it’s just…’6c062017d954fe26

Joo Taehyun mumbled, covering 62949f3ac4 his mouth, saying that a484b6d581 he had only slept fc2c77c308 with a bodyguard a 4c2973d136 few times out of 4a72c37950 curiosity. The confession he hesitantly 1540a3b88c made after a long da0c70d7b8 time was more bland 28bd553a0f and boring than Seo e1b7d5b0cb Baekhan had expected.b1e0ac008b0bd129

As if he didn’t think Seo Baekhan would believe him, Joo Taehyun also rattled off excuses. He was also afraid of people and couldn’t trust just anyone, and even if he caused an accident, it had to be something that his parents could handle, but he was curious about sex… just the usual stuff.194556e69622aec3

Sorry, but it was so dbdff8caeb boring that it made Seo 988c306952 Baekhan want to yawn. He thought it 943db430c8 would be better fae17ad2ed if Joo Taehyun e9ffd81c42 just rattled off ae3453aeae stories of causing e0b3896dac accidents without a aefdbeff89 plan.6888f0e02ea6d3ae

Joo Taehyun hadn’t changed much since then. Except for the fact that he had changed partners several times, he still reacted in a dull and boring way whenever this topic came up.1e6ac0da4e4560c6

Joo Taehyun endlessly fiddled with b3c401f9fd the wedding ring on his b1343d731c left ring finger. It was just a meaningless 8c8c90d59b object anyway. It seemed like he 258169a09d felt a pang of 33d54cb7d1 conscience now that his f895d2f6fc partner was being mentioned.e3b1b0d105d9b7b7

“Your partner must be very upset. Even if it’s a contractual relationship, marriage is marriage.

When Seo Baekhan told him c8dfeb686d to go back and comfort 9ba3456250 him, Joo Taehyun readily agreed.9fd570bb7ffa5c53

From what Seo Baekhan had observed over the past two years, Joo Taehyun didn’t seem like the type to treat his partner very well. He often put his phone away when they were together and never seemed to contact anyone. If Seo Baekhan hadn’t separately found out that someone from the same lab regularly visited Joo Taehyun’s house in Washington and that he was steadily buying Switch, he would have doubted whether he really had a partner.2249a2e592ef8a61

Was he being too overbearing? Seo Baekhan was 9df19e9b78 well aware that e8f22a617d he was acting 5d32de382d like a nagging e734c10aab parent. But just looking at his e8fc0bf7a5 face, who would imagine that 7ea61cd6d5 Joo Taehyun would be playing 0cf0dbf8b4 around promiscuously to the point 1ddc7cb30b of taking Switch?a7a671025323291e

He handed over the data whenever asked, and there was nothing particularly strange when Seo Baekhan investigated, so he would just have to poke him like this from time to time. He still seemed to be pretending in front of him, but it was necessary to keep him tense like this. He didn’t know what kind of accident he might cause the moment he relaxed.11cb71fdb9fda20b

Seo Baekhan fully agreed with the necessity of Switch, but he didn’t have a good opinion of people who used it for the same purpose as Joo Taehyun. It was different to take the drug because you had no choice because you and your loved one had the same trait, and to take the drug because you were obsessed with sex.0a1b8ee7fb4897b6

Despite the casual suggestion, Joo Taehyun’s gaze lingered on Seo Baekhan for quite a while. Seo Baekhan wondered if he had something to say and raised his head, but he just shrugged as if it was nothing.3a92ef878d8abcb8

Joo Taehyun, who straightened his back to make it easier for Seo Baekhan to pat him, was no different from a large dog, except that he didn’t shed fur.
