    She took them to a restaurant that was rumored to have great porterhouse steaks.

    Honestly, this place wasn’t just known for their delicious food. It was also known for its expensive price. It was so popular that it was near impossible to obtain a table without a reservation. Thankfully, they arrived a little after noon, so they were able to be seated without waiting.

    “It seems that you like the food here.”

    As they sat down at the table, he made a remark. She opened the menu and calmly replied.

    “I just came here because it was expensive.”

    Well, it might not have been much to someone like Sunbae. When he saw her shrug, he grabbed a menu and opened his mouth.

    “That’s not a bad idea. If you don’t have a good eye for quality, they say that you should just pick the most expensive one.”

    How could he be so…

    She looked up with a frown and saw him slowly go through the menu. She felt that even the way he looked at the menu seemed haughty.

    The way his eyes grazed past the various words with indifference made her think that those eyes would never observe anyone else for the sake of assessing how they felt.

    He probably lived a life where he never had to bow down to anyone. That’s why he can say things like that with a straight face.

    “Yes, yes.”

    She nodded insincerely with resignation. He chose the most expensive set on the menu by gesturing to it with his finger.

    “Then…shall we go with this?”

    “Fine by me.”

    She had skipped breakfast. It looked like she’d have to lick the plate clean if she wanted to get her money’s worth.

    Clink.

    After scarfing down the tiramisu for dessert, she put down her fork. When she finally looked down at her empty plate, she was overcome with embarrassment.

    What should she say? Should she tell him that she gobbled down the food because it was so expensive? But in the end, it was just an excuse. If the food had tasted bad, no matter how expensive it was, she would have taken her hands off of it a long time ago.

    Has the chef changed? She wanted to find a reason as to why she had eaten all of her food like this. Even if there was a separate stomach for food and for dessert, she had never really liked dessert. But she had just eaten so much that she felt like her stomach was going to explode.

    “It seems that this place is not merely expensive.”

    He glanced at her empty plate and spoke up. Recalling how she had told him she’d only chosen this place because of its pricey food, she felt her face grow warm.

    Although his tone of voice did not sound sarcastic, because he was repeating her words back at her, she felt as if she’d been pricked. Her words and her actions were the complete opposite.

    “Well, it is what it is. Now what are you going to do?”

    He put down his cup of coffee and asked. Her eyes quickly looked up.

    “About what?”

    “About the person you called your ‘special person’.”

    She recalled what she had said long ago. As if she had pulled out a thorn, the memories began to flow back into her mind.

    The words that seemed to have been thrown out as a joke caused her brows to furrow. It wasn’t exactly pleasant to recall the words he had carelessly tossed out all those years ago, but she was suddenly curious as to why he was bringing it up again.

    He replied in a composed voice. His eyes that had been confidently looking into hers slowly lowered.

    Seeing him like this made him look like a shy young boy. This makes no sense. She shook this thought out of her head and chuckled.

    “What is it? Did you think ‘You’re the first woman to reject me’ at that time too?”

    She asked in a laughing voice, but she didn’t really expect much of an answer from him. If she truly was the first woman to reject him, it would probably be a special memory more or less.

    However, she was not so naive as to believe the cliche words that usually only existed inside a Korean drama. She hoped she wouldn’t have a reason to see him after this lunch was over.

    “That’s not all.”

    He raised his eyes. Unable to look away in time, she was caught by his light yet stubborn gaze as it poured over her face. Even though it was only his eyes, she felt like she was caught in a spider’s web. She couldn’t move a muscle.

    His familiar gaze awoke the memories that had been long buried in the past. As if she’d returned to her college days, every cell in her body grew tense.

    “You were definitely unique.”

    His drawling voice rang in her ears. As if she were hypnotized, she didn’t react to his words. When she returned to her senses, she let out a deep breath.

    ChaYoung’s mouth opened in shock as she stared at him. She thought he’d eventually say ‘I’m joking’, but he merely looked back at her. She found this so ridiculous that she couldn’t even get mad.

    “Is that what you think?”

    No. His eyes looked too sincere for that to be the case. But that made it even more difficult for her to believe this was reality.

    “It usually isn’t normal to say something like this to your hoobae after what happened last night.”

    “I guess you’re right.”

    She was so shocked that she was at a loss for words. She had read articles about the promiscuous private lives of third-generation chaebols, but she never dreamed that she’d come across one herself.

    “Did you think that you’d be able to entice me to follow you to a hotel because I went through that pathetic scene?”
