SB Ch 7

Living as the secretary to a somewhat eccentric boss is quite a tough job. It means that even while handling project-related tasks, you might have to run to Bukchon to buy bagels for your boss’s 17-year-old lover, or rush to the market to buy stockings after attending an orchestra rehearsal. It also means that while diligently scheduling, you might have to search through the S/S and F/W collections of luxury brands from the past few years to find the lingerie your boss casually saw on the internet.

“Sigh.”

Chae Beomjoon scrolled down with a dissatisfied expression. As the wheel of the ergonomic mouse he used to protect his wrist turned, the screen moved up, showing pictures of models in lingerie.

At first, he admired them with a pleased face, but now those beautiful bodies felt no different from mannequins. Fixing his gaze only on the underwear they wore, Chae Beomjoon searched for the target.

Cream-colored lace with light pink crystal decorations. One in the middle, two on each side. Recalling the features Shin Kyoyeon had mentioned, he continued to search through the collections.

“Huh?”

Chae Beomjoon suddenly straightened up and stared intently at the monitor. The people in the secretary’s office, who had been making bored faces, turned their gazes towards him.

They had no idea what he was doing and thought he was just surfing the internet instead of working. So they wondered if some breaking news had popped up. Although he felt wronged because he had been working harder than anyone, Chae Beomjoon smiled and made an excuse.

“Did you know that Border Collies have the intelligence of a five-year-old human? Isn’t it amazing? A mere ball of fur can sometimes think more advanced thoughts than humans.”

“Chief, don’t you really love Border Collies? You talk about them all the time.”

Kim Jiyeon burst into laughter at his random comment while checking the lingerie photos. He didn’t really love dogs. He just knew a lot about them because one of the company directors, who was a doting owner of a Border Collie, often talked about them.

“Aren’t they cute? Anyway, to sum up, we’ve all been less intelligent than a dog at some point.”

“Oh, Chief! That’s too much.”

Another employee playfully booed at his silly remark. Chae Beomjoon just smiled and skillfully brushed off the conversation. It seemed like he had found what Shin Kyoyeon was looking for. Sending the photo to his tablet, Beomjoon knocked on the door of the CEO’s office.

“Director, it’s Chae Beomjoon.”

After saying his name and waiting, a voice from inside said, “Come in.” As he opened the door and entered, he saw a man comfortably leaning back in his chair.

His cold, expressionless eyes revealed a chilling gaze. However, unlike his indifferent stare at the monitor, a small smile lingered on Shin Kyoyeon’s lips. Thanks to his handsome appearance, he might have looked like he was working hard at first glance, but to Chae Beomjoon’s eyes, it was clear that he was indulging in his own desires.

Shin Kyoyeon was a person who couldn’t go about his daily life without constantly spying on his lover at home through dozens of cameras installed in his house. He had an incurable disease called voyeurism. It seemed he was watching CCTV like a pervert instead of working. Clicking his tongue inwardly, Chae Beomjoon asked nonchalantly.

“I found the product you mentioned. Is this the one?”

Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator

His tone was businesslike, as if he were reporting on an investment destination they had previously discussed. Saying this, Chae Beomjoon turned the tablet he was holding to show Shin Kyoyeon. Only then did Shin Kyoyeon’s gaze, fixed on the monitor, shift to the side. He glanced at the photo with an indifferent face and soon nodded.

“…That’s right. Please order it in Yoon Heesoo’s size.”

“Yes, I’ll handle it right away.”

Finally, the pointless busywork was over. It seemed like he could sneak out early. Just as Chae Beomjoon, who was inwardly cheering, bowed his head and was about to leave, Shin Kyoyeon suddenly tilted his head and spoke.

“But I gave you this task in the morning.”

He meant to ask why it took so long.

Visit Lily on the Valley to read full chapter without gibberish

Did he think finding underwear with just the information that it had cream-colored lace and pink crystal decorations was that easy? When he searched with those keywords in the morning, thousands of similar designs had come up.

Chae Beomjoon had filtered out the low and mid-priced brands and searched through only the luxury collections from past seasons. Since the photos are removed from the official websites of those brands after the season ends, he had to dig through old posts by fashion bloggers and influencers both domestically and internationally.

Only Chae Beomjoon in the secretary’s office knew that DG O&M’s CEO Shin Kyoyeon was a crazy pervert who ordered jeweled lace lingerie to dress his male lover in while spying on him peeing during work hours. That’s why he couldn’t delegate this kind of busywork to anyone else and had to handle it all by himself. There was a reason it took so long.

“I’m sorry.”

But instead of spitting out all those excuses, Chae Beomjoon just smiled and bowed his head. They say even a dog recites poetry after three years in a school, and after more than ten years of serving a lunatic, Chae Beomjoon had learned to think like one. It meant he knew quite well how to handle Shin Kyoyeon.

“I finished all the necessary tasks while searching for the product. All urgent matters have been taken care of. Would you like to leave early today? Shall I prepare for your departure?”

Visit Lily on the Valley to read full chapter without gibberish

Rather than risk getting twenty more pieces of trash work by arguing with Shin Kyoyeon, Chae Beomjoon chose to suggest an early departure.

Saying he had taken care of all the necessary tasks himself wonderfully stimulated Shin Kyoyeon’s psychopathic sensibilities. Shin Kyoyeon, who had been staring at Chae Beomjoon with one eyebrow raised, soon chuckled and nodded.

“Let’s do that. Good job, Chief Chae.”

“You’ve worked hard today as well, Director.”

Responding perfunctorily to the soulless compliment, he quickly turned around. After several days, finally, an early departure.

Chae Beomjoon planned to go to a hotel, take a shower, have a simple meal to regain his composure, and then meet someone. It felt like mold had grown on his lower body, which he hadn’t exposed in front of others for nearly ten days. Today, he absolutely had to give it a hot bath disinfection.

Returning to the secretary’s office and delivering the happy news, everyone’s faces lit up. Hearing the youngest secretary, Lim Seonggyu, call the front desk to prepare the car, Chae Beomjoon quickly packed his bag before Shin Kyoyeon could change his mind. He neatly organized his laptop, tablet, and other belongings and zipped up his bag.

“I’ll be leaving first. Have a great weekend, everyone.”

“Chief, at least show your face and say goodbye!”

Seeing Chae Beomjoon trying to leave the office less than thirty seconds after returning, Kim Jiyeon burst into laughter. Chae Beomjoon paused at the door, leaned back, and made eye contact with her. With a face full of laughter, he winked and said,

He had a principle of not getting involved with colleagues, so nothing had ever happened with Kim Jiyeon, but that was a story limited to the secretary’s office.

Other departments had bothered him so much. Kim Ji-yeon, who had worked with Chae Beom-joon for over 10 years, knew him all too well. Seeing her wave her hand in disgust, he grinned mischievously and turned to leave.

With Lim Seonggyu’s voice calling out, “See you on Monday, Chief!” after ending the phone call at the front desk, Chae Beom-joon reached the elevator.

He pressed the button for the lower floor and searched his phone. He needed to find someone to meet later. Who should he call…

As he pondered, an image of someone he was going to have sex with within a few hours flashed before his eyes. A man he had held hands with once and let go. He was really pretty. Chae Beom-joon licked his lips, feeling a pang of regret.

But it was already in the past, and remembering his temper, it was a forbidden fruit. It was sure to be very bitter, sour, and spicy, and taste strange. Beomjoon quickly gave up and scrolled down his contacts.

Contacts

Kim Myunghwan (1)
Kim Minjun (3)
Kim Minhee (1)

Most of the names had numbers next to them, endlessly listed. A “1” meant he had met the person once, while a “3” indicated three meetings.

Occasionally, there were names with double-digit numbers. These were mostly individuals who had been his sexual partners. Even after mutually ending the partnership, they’d occasionally meet for drinks or spend nights together.

It was tempting to reach out to one of them—it would be easy and clean. Opening his messenger app, Beomjoon searched for the name of a former partner. But just as he was about to send a message, he noticed an unbelievable photo on their profile.

“No way…”

Rarely, there were people with double-digit numbers next to their names, most of whom had been Chae Beomjoon’s former casual sex partners. Even after mutually agreeing to end their partnership, they would occasionally stay in touch, grab drinks, or spend the night together.

Since they were the easiest to call up and keep things straightforward, he leaned toward that option. Chae Beomjoon opened his messenger app and searched for the name of a former partner. However, as he prepared to send a message, he noticed an unbelievable photo on her profile.

Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator

“No way…”

That couldn’t be right, could it? He shook his head and clicked on the profile. The screen was filled with a picture of his former partner in a wedding dress.

Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator

And when he confirmed who her groom-to-be was, Chae Beomjoon’s jaw dropped in shock. The groom was, astonishingly, none other than Chae Beomjoon’s partner before her!

The fact that his former and second-former partners were getting married wasn’t particularly surprising. Arranged marriages were still common in his circles. What shocked him was that these two, who had once declared their devotion to a free and independent lifestyle, had now trapped themselves in the institution of marriage, likely tearing each other apart in the process. Even if theirs was a sham marriage, they would now be forced to consider each other’s public image. Their wedding day was essentially the start of their descent into misery.

To think such a tragedy was unfolding around him… Chae Beomjoon clicked his tongue sympathetically and headed for the parking lot.

🔮🌙

As he drove, contemplating an appropriate amount for the wedding gift, he soon arrived at the hotel. A bright yellow SUV had encroached on his reserved parking spot, so he parked in a regular space instead.

Instead of heading straight to his room, Chae Beomjoon took the stairs down to the first floor. He wanted to eat before freshening up, but since it was dinnertime and room service would likely take a while, he decided to pick up food from a nearby restaurant. There were plenty of good spots in the area.

For the past few days, he hadn’t been able to leave the office. The CEO had been too busy to step out of his office, which meant that Chae Beomjoon was similarly trapped indoors. While he made sure the lower-level employees could go out and grab decent meals, he and Shin Kyoyeon had been stuck eating at the company cafeteria.

Because of that, he craved high-quality food. Chae Beomjoon packed sushi from a Japanese restaurant between the hotel and the club.

“How long will it take?”

The new young part-timer, who asked with a soft smile, answered a little shyly. She was a girl with a white, round face. Her features were ordinary, but the dimples that appeared when she smiled were very pretty.

Cute… Chae Beomjoon chuckled and sat down.

Should I try to flirt with her instead of calling someone else? He had that thought for a moment but had to give up soon. Every time he tried to talk to the part-timer who was going back and forth, the sushi chef kept staring at him with piercing eyes.

It seemed like he remembered the dozens of times Chae Beomjoon had brought different people. He felt that if he asked the part-timer when she would be done, the chef might come out with a sashimi knife and end his life first. So, as soon as the packing was done, Chae Beomjoon left the restaurant immediately.

“Sigh…”

He felt hungry in a different sense, so his eyes turned to anyone he met on the street. Chae Beomjoon talked to the male part-timer at the convenience store where he went to buy cigarettes and flirted briefly with the tall male valet at the luxury flagship store on the street before finally reaching the hotel.

I should just go to the social club without going far. If I head to a club near Hongdae or Gangnam Station in this state, I might end up flirting with the gas station attendant on the way.

Determining that his state was like a neighborhood dog in heat, Chae Beomjoon entered the hotel lobby with that resolution. He was about to head straight to the elevator to his room.

“Huh?”

He saw a familiar silhouette in front of him.

The man, who was looking down at the ground with his head down, was wearing a soft sweater and comfortable pants. The skin exposed between his clothes was white and slightly flushed, and his hands, fiddling with his phone, were long and pretty. Most of all, what caught his eye was his neck. An elegant neck line stretched straight like a deer…

The moment his gaze reached there, he forgot the faces of those who had just passed by. Instead, he remembered the shy face that had thanked him while holding the hotel room handle.

As he recalled that memory and took a deep breath, the familiar scent tickled his nose just like before. The man still carried the scent that had excited Chae Beomjoon all the way to the hotel. He thought he would never meet him again, but here they were. His thoughts shifted rapidly.

An unattainable fruit? You never know until you taste it, so he decided to give it a try. In fact, Chae Beomjoon liked bitter, sour, and spicy things. It was natural for someone as beautiful as him to have a bit of poison. He could handle a cute temper.

Moreover, meeting him here of all places, this must be fate…

Feeling his heart swell, Chae Beomjoon swallowed dryly. How should he flirt with this man? He was pondering that as he opened his mouth.

“…Ah.”

Suddenly, the man who had lifted his head first noticed Chae Beomjoon and opened his eyes wide. Was it an illusion to feel that his pretty eyes were filled with joy? As he thought that, the man lowered his eyebrows and sent a desperate look.

“No…!”

The man shook his head, looking up with his eyes wide open. His once pale face had turned slightly red. Moreover, his eyes were sparkling. Please, just once. His eyes seemed to say that.

The man’s desperate look, which would have seemed noble if he stayed still, was so cute. He felt like he had to listen to him, no matter what. But Chae Beomjoon was the kind of person who liked to take his time and tease when the other person was in a hurry. It was his nature.

“Hmm….”

Beomjoon looked around quietly with a smooth smile. It didn’t take long to find someone unusual nearby.

There was a gym rat who looked like a thug. His arms and legs were covered with irezumi tattoos, but he wasn’t part of any organization. The tattoos, which had no connection to any gangs in Seoul or nationwide, indicated that he was a fashion gangster.

He wasn’t threatening. He didn’t know how others saw him, though. Anyway, the gym rat, who seemed uncomfortable, kept glancing awkwardly in their direction.

He didn’t know the exact story, but he could tell that this man wanted to avoid the gym rat. Was it a love affair? Chae Beomjoon lowered his head and asked the man quietly.

“Is he stalking you?”

The man shook his head. It seemed like they were meeting for the first time.

When he asked for confirmation, the man’s eyes sparkled as if asking how he knew. Every time he nodded vigorously, his soft hair brushed against his cheeks. Chae Beomjoon felt an urge to kiss that hair and asked confidently.

“The person who showed up was completely different from the photo, right?”

In Korea, it was common for gay people to use dating apps to find partners, and such incidents happened frequently. He had experienced it a few times himself. And as if to confirm his guess, the man blinked his big eyes and answered.

His voice trembled as if he was greatly surprised. He looked delicate and fragile. Like a lost fawn.

He stood there with a desperate expression, as if begging for help. It was a completely different face from when he was attacking people as a drug rapist and preparing to hit them with a wine bottle.

While he was anxious that the man might recognize him at any moment, he seemed to believe without a doubt that Chae Beomjoon would save him from this situation. He urged him to hurry.

When did he hesitate to apologize? Unlike the time when he seriously doubted him with paranoia, he was glad that the man trusted him. The man’s unexpectedly fragile appearance in a corner made his heart soften.

But Chae Beomjoon was a man who held grudges for a long time. He didn’t want to miss the chance to hear the man, who had accused him of being a bad guy for all sorts of reasons, ask for help.

Suddenly, Chae Beomjoon, with his arms crossed, looked down at the man and whispered.

So what! As the story dragged on, the man silently asked with an urgent expression. His face looked extremely young. He was incredibly cute.

The man, looking like he hated Chae Beomjoon’s leisurely attitude, grabbed his jacket tightly with a sulky face. Tugging at it slightly, he whispered in a soft voice.

Chae Beomjoon found the man’s sly trick both absurd and amusing, and he let out a short laugh. As if to encourage him to continue, he nodded his head, and the man, seemingly frustrated, gritted his teeth and whispered again, conscious of their surroundings.

At that moment, there was a sound of someone inhaling sharply next to them. Glancing to the side, Chae Beomjoon saw the gym rat enlarging a photo on his phone with a puzzled expression.

It seemed like he was almost certain that the man was his date. It didn’t seem like they could delay any longer.

He hadn’t even asked for help yet, and he wasn’t into daddy play, but…. This should be enough. Satisfied with the small mischief he had indulged in, Chae Beomjoon smiled and asked the man.

The man had a youthful face, but he didn’t look like a teenager. He seemed to be at least 27 years old.

But calling him Dad without intending daddy play meant he saw Chae Beomjoon as someone in his 40s or 50s. For someone who was confident he didn’t look older than 34, it was a very insulting remark.

“Oh, really? I’ve never had a son like you. I guess I’ll be going now.”

A hot, firm hand touched the back of his hand. He thought it would be soft…. At the unexpected touch, Chae Beomjoon raised his eyebrows, and the man shook his head as if he had made a mistake, lifting his heels. Now the gym rat was close enough to hear their whispers. So the man had to put his lips to Chae Beomjoon’s ear to speak.

“I was thinking of calling my dad when I ran into you, so I called you that without realizing it…. It’s not what you think, sorry….”

He explained, as if not wanting to be misunderstood, but Chae Beomjoon couldn’t help but smile.

The man, speaking softly to keep his words from being heard outside, was adorably doing something out of place with his thick lips that had once held a cigarette and calling him Dad, not Father….

He interlocked fingers with the man, just as he had held his hand when they left the club’s courtyard. They walked briskly away together. He saw the gym rat flinch and step aside.

When they reached a corner of the lobby, an elevator had just arrived at the first floor and people were getting on. Chae Beomjoon took the man there, made him get on first, and blocked the entrance.

They reached their intended floor and the door opened. Chae Beomjoon stepped out into the corridor and glanced sideways. Fortunately, the man didn’t seem to be thinking of leaving immediately.

Imagining the feel of it, Chae Beomjoon shrugged. Honestly, the man did seem a bit foolish, but this wasn’t the moment for that thought, so he forced a smile and tried to comfort him.

“If a fraudster is determined, that can happen. You got scammed.”

“Yeah… I really got scammed….”

The man nodded, fortunately not noticing anything strange. His face was full of discontent above his protruding lips. He didn’t seem like someone who would leave this place just yet.

Does he not realize he’s standing in front of my room? Or is he just not thinking? Chae Beomjoon observed his expression and took out the key card to open the door. When the lock clicked open, the man finally reacted.

Realizing that he had been holding Chae Beomjoon’s hand all this time and was now entering the room he had walked out of a week ago, he blinked awkwardly.

“Anyway, so the conclusion is that you were also looking for someone to be with today.”

Instead of distracting him, Chae Beomjoon got straight to the point as they entered the room together. Considering the man’s unpredictable past behavior, dragging out the time was not a good choice.

At his words, the man flinched and looked up. At the same time, the door closed. The sound of the lock clicking echoed clearly, as if heralding the second act of a story that had previously ended in tragedy.

“…”

In the slowly rising tension, the man lowered his eyes without a word. He bit his lip with a hesitant expression and remained silent.

His free hand hung limply, fidgeting. Watching him softly scratch the door with his fingernail, Chae Beomjoon sensed that he wasn’t entirely uncomfortable with the change in atmosphere.

Of course. Although he ended up playing the role of the woodcutter, outwardly, Chae Beomjoon was like a fairy descended from the heavens. So even a deer couldn’t help but be attracted to him. To this perfectly sexy man in front of him. Chae Beomjoon smiled inwardly, feeling triumphant.

“Shall we consider the last incident as if it never happened? What do you think?”

At his subtle question, the man slowly raised his eyes. His large, clear eyes reflected Chae Beomjoon’s face.

Chae Beomjoon knew exactly which angle made him look most dazzlingly handsome. The man seemed to tremble at the sight of his perfectly angled face. He opened his mouth to speak but then closed it again, as if the words wouldn’t come out. Watching his thick lips, Chae Beomjoon spoke.

“What I said earlier, it wasn’t a joke.”

The man widened his eyes in confusion at the ambiguous statement. Despite looking quite promiscuous, his eyes were strangely pure. Large, clear, and with long eyelashes. His neck was long and white, and his calm and elegant demeanor made him look even more like a deer.

Chae Beomjoon pulled the hand he had been holding since the first floor closer to his lips.

“I meant it when I said I would have asked the deer to mate.”

Since the man hadn’t shaken off his hand earlier, it was as if he had given permission for some level of physical contact. Chae Beomjoon gently kissed the tip of his fingers and whispered.

“You look like a deer.”

Then he looked straight into the man’s eyes.

In truth, the moment they first held hands and left the garden, they had practically given each other permission. Despite the unfortunate misunderstanding, they had once found each other attractive enough to follow. No more words were needed.

The man bit his lip and looked up at Chae Beomjoon. Was he hesitating? This time, Chae Beomjoon softly rubbed his lips against each of the man’s fingers and asked.

“Are you going to run away again? I’m not a hunter….”

“…I won’t run.”

“Then?”

“…You’re not the type to talk so much during sex, right?”

Was that why he had been hesitating all this time? Chae Beomjoon found the man’s serious question both absurd and endearing, and he couldn’t help but laugh. Turning his head to laugh, he then replied seriously.

“We agreed to forget about the past. The person in front of me now isn’t the paranoid man from before, but someone I want to kiss and kneel before. Why would I talk too much?”

From the look in his eyes, Chae Beomjoon could tell he had convinced him.

He had been feeling a throbbing ache below for a while now, almost ready to burst. Hiding his impatience, he took a step closer to the man leaning against the door. He gently slid his knee between the man’s legs and lightly placed his other hand on his cheek. The man didn’t turn his face away. He looked into his clear eyes.

“I’m not saying you owe me this because I helped you. If you don’t want to, you can open the door and leave right now.”

“…Okay.”

The man nodded awkwardly, as if hearing such words for the first time. He looked down, seemingly embarrassed. It was a sign of consent. Following his gaze, Chae Beomjoon looked at the thick lips that had been lingering in his mind for a while.

Reminding himself of the saying “slow and steady wins the race,” he took a deep breath. Just then, the man, who had been avoiding his gaze, suddenly spoke. He asked a question, as if belatedly curious.

“But why are you kneeling?”

He added a small question at the end, but it seemed like what he really wanted to ask was that.

“It’s not like that.”

Thankfully, Chae Beomjoon wasn’t particularly interested in SM.

His nature was more like vanilla, simply not feeling much shame. If he had to pick one, he was more of a servant type. He actively served and worked for his partner, and the more satisfied his partner was, the more excited and pleased he felt. Of course, this was only when it came to sex.

However, it wasn’t like that from the beginning. It had become so after gaining quite a bit of experience, so it was strange to say it was an innate nature. Thinking there was no need to explain, Chae Beomjoon simply smiled and knelt down in that spot. It seemed better to show it with his body than to explain it.

“I like this.”

He released the man’s hand and put his finger on top of his pants. Click, as he undid the buckle, the man flinched. Tilting his chin towards him, Chae Beomjoon spoke with a face full of laughter. “I suck well, you know.”

The man opened his mouth, revealing his teeth, and bit the zipper with the tip of his tongue. Gently wrapping Seo Haeyoon’s hips, he tilted his head slightly and lowered it. Zip, as the zipper went down, the front of his pants opened. The man’s handsome nose and lips were mashed against it.

“Haah…”

Seo Haeyoon covered his reddened cheeks with the back of his hand and looked down. A neatly handsome man was rubbing his face against his crotch with a very lewd expression. It wasn’t just a mechanical caress to heighten excitement, but a face that looked like licking cocks was his profession.

“Pretty, haah, big.”

He moved his tongue along the path where his tongue slid over the fabric of his underwear, which was getting wet. The hot breath felt over the thin cotton fabric, and his mind was dizzy.

“Ah, uh…”

No matter what kind of personality he had, how he spoke rudely, or the various excuses he made to Ahn Yewon, Seo Haeyoon, who had never mentioned the word ‘personality’ when talking about his ideal type, didn’t really care about his sex partner’s temperament.

What was much more important was the appearance and physique that made him want to be hugged. In that respect, the man in front of him more than met those conditions. A man with a sturdy body that could easily crush him was kneeling in front of him. The sucking on his cock was sticky but not rough.

“Good, yeah…”

Forgetting the memory of rudely speaking, Seo Haeyoon languidly narrowed his eyes at the pleasant start. He ran his long fingers through his black hair.

“Pants, haah, can I take them off?”

The underwear exposed between the open front was already soaking wet. The indirect feeling of the tongue through the thin cotton fabric was ecstatic, but it wasn’t enough. Neither the man nor Seo Haeyoon.

“I, I’ll do it…”

He stopped the man who was trying to take off his pants and reached out his hand himself. While Seo Haeyoon took off his pants and underwear, the man also took off his jacket and threw it away. The vest underneath soon fell to the floor. The thin brown tie visible between the white shirt collar exuded a strangely sensual atmosphere. He ran his hand through the hair that Haeyoon had messed up, and then knelt down in front of Seo Haeyoon who was panting in front of him.

“Quickly, haah, suck it…”

With excitement rising to his head, Seo Haeyoon grabbed his cock that was protruding under his sweater as soon as he settled down. The tip was wet and hard. It was a pretty big cock, just like his tall height. And it was completely hairless.

As he shook his glans himself, his stomach tickled and his buttocks wiggled. Haeyoon licked his lips and rubbed his buttocks against the door. Seeing that, the man chuckled.

“Haah, you’re such a…”

He muttered as if he was dumbfounded, but he didn’t hesitate. With one hand, he grabbed the base of Haeyoon’s cock and testicles, pulling his cock towards his face, and with the other hand, he reached behind and stroked his buttocks. Then, as he squeezed his butt cheek, the man sucked on his cock.
