It wasn’t the lustful, e0236c3517 possessive stare of someone d9b49f2603 driven by romantic or c7cfe05e1c sexual feelings. But considering Sejin’s 166e0689e3 usual attitude, the 45d1bdeaab change in his 0b0fe93bb5 behavior was enough 9cf8b658ee to create some 724f7062ae misunderstandings.af538917fe45c327

As much as c9d13c8c18 Sejin hated to 4645ba9691 admit it, it d74de68ffe was a fact d537901031 he couldn’t deny. Despite having been out 139fa34e07 of school for a d43145595d long time, Cheon Sejoo adec11ab2c hadn’t forgotten a single fcbf921011 math formula, could easily 90bd601a84 guess the meaning of 7047466803 English words at a d99d9ce492 glance, and could effortlessly 6062395dd2 interpret classic Korean poetry—something 8d4f8a9048 Sejin had always struggled c140c2a4d6 with. In fact, he was c17e9cc5bf often better at explaining 23f4cf31a1 things than the workbook’s d2647a87e0 answer key.997707720b66a038

He couldn’t imagine d472c02df3 Cheon Sejoo barging 3e862232fb into someone’s home, 1f3cd780aa and threatening them 5dd5242d39 to hand over d02552b1b0 their money like 67c74c5110 the gangsters from 24c8421f57 Shinsa Capital. It seemed 9531a86d17 more fitting b332e3d89a for him 22a6e6c0f3 to be 544cfda7a9 a character faad31c237 in a bd2dc32f91 noir film, c1eabc6bd9 sitting in 35635e33e8 the CEO’s 18cb731ad8 office of 9e2ea48995 a tall 9e878ec320 building, swinging f530bb66ea a golf 607790ad01 club around.e87395e68d7db3d4
