IWDAR Chapter 21
by tsukkie𐙚Wooyoung, without a phone, required Taewook to seek help from Lilac Entertainment to contact him. More precisely, through Wooyoung’s former manager, Chae Soohee.

Yet, for a former trainee and their manager to be together on a weekend… It was certainly a situation more than sufficient to irritate Tae-uk.

Feeling the sharp edge in the question, Wooyoung unconsciously glanced at Tae-uk, gauging his mood. Tae-uk exuded an air that made it difficult to even utter unless he was smiling. Just like now.

“Although the contract isn’t finalized, Han Wooyoung is now part of ON Entertainment. A soon-to-debut idol trainee living alone with a woman… that’s not good.”

Wooyoung drooped his shoulders with a dejected look. The reason Wooyoung could easily bring up such personal matters was because he knew Mo Tae-uk wouldn’t ask “why.” Just as he hadn’t asked how he got injured, the man wouldn’t press him for uncomfortable answers.

“Even if there are circumstances, Han Wooyoung, you must be careful about every single action you take from now on. It would be best to move out of that house immediately.”

Wooyoung nodded resolutely, as if he had been given a crucial mission. Being cautious in his actions wasn’t particularly difficult for Wooyoung. He had always lived that way.

Taewook, staring at Wooyoung’s innocent face, spoke,

“The dorm will be vacant next month. Even though they were expelled, they were long-time trainees, so we gave them about a month to pack up. You can move in after that. Do you have a place to stay in the meantime?”

The entire conversation flowed as naturally as water. The tone was as casual as “The weather’s nice, isn’t it?” so Wooyoung almost unconsciously responded with, “Yes, it is.”

The question lingering in Wooyoung’s mind deepened. Even if ON Entertainment was in a hurry due to the new member issue, Wooyoung had already clearly expressed his intention to accept the contract.

Was it really necessary for the CEO himself to drive his own car to meet him on a weekend?

Furthermore, although he’d refused today, wasn’t it unnatural for the CEO of such a large agency to have a meal twice already with a trainee who hadn’t even signed a contract yet?

They could be interested in his talent. Wooyoung had seen enough of such people in his life.

But the resulting value was already evident in the contract before him. Everything else, such as Mo Tae-uk’s excessive kindness, was unrelated to Wooyoung’s talent.

Ultimately, Wooyoung accepted Mo Tae-uk’s offer. Now that it was difficult to continue relying on Soohee, he had nowhere else to go, and if Tae-uk was making this generous offer because he wanted something, it wouldn’t be difficult to fulfill his request.

Tae-uk, who had fully entered past the entrance, placed cute little boxes in Wooyoung’s arms. The sight of Wooyoung suddenly holding light blue and pink boxes suited him perfectly, just as he had imagined.

Wooyoung’s nose twitched slightly, hugging the boxes. A faint sweet scent emanated from between the boxes. The sight of him was so harmless, like a rabbit sniffing the air after playing in a field, made Tae-uk’s eyes narrowed slightly.

At Wooyoung’s answer, Tae-uk stopped walking. The man tilted his head slightly and looked at Wooyoung. It was hard to read the emotions that surfaced in his dark, staring eyes, so Wooyoung unconsciously held his breath.

When he lived with his foster parents, the only people Wooyoung felt attached to were the housekeepers who helped in the kitchen.

The housekeepers always felt sorry for Wooyoung, who was as thin as a rail, and perhaps because of that, they often slipped him food when his foster parents weren’t looking. It was one of the few pleasant memories that remained deep in his heart.
