Chapter 45.2
Absolute Advantage
Li Yuyan started to feel pain in his bones and pressed his temples tightly. Seeing that, Bora wept and apologized.
âIâm sorry! You look so young. I would have thought you were a freshman if you didnât wear a suit.â
âB-Boraâ¦â¦.â
It was true that Li Yu-yen looked young, and he looked so young that he could be trusted as a cousin rather than a secretary.
First of all, his skin was soft like a childâs, and the length of his nose are essential for young age. The catâs eyes, which are raised at the end, added sensitivity to the boyish beauty.
âI would believe you even if you said you were a high school student.â
Li Yu-yenâs shoulder trembled when Bora jokingly added to warm up the atmosphere.
ââ¦â¦Well, secretary?â
Bora secretly looked at Li Yuyen.
Li Yuyen spread out his hand that was pressing on his temple and covered his face. His expression was unrecognizable because of his huge palms compared to his physique, but his red-hot ears were clearly visible.
âWhat to do, he must be angry.â
Bora stamped her feet inside.
Li Yu-yen was more ashamed than angry. Since a long time ago, being young has been a huge complex, and the ambiguous height of 175.6cm has always been on his mind.
He was often told that he looked bigger because of his good proportion, but when he stood next to Adam, who was over 190 centimeters tall, the good proportion did not shine.
âHow tall are you?â
âIâm 176cm.â
âLiar. Youâre 175.6.â
âIf you round it up, itâs 176cm, right? And why are you asking if you know?
âHow can you get mad? Thatâs why Iâm getting my ID checked.â
When he came to Korea, he bought cigarettes at a convenience store and had his ID checked, so he was laughed at by Adam all day.
Heâs sure heâs listening to this conversation if he has a wiretap here, too. Li Yu-yen shook his legs nervously and suddenly came to his senses.
âNo, you may misunderstand.â
Li Yuyen stood in front of Haewon.
âThe introduction was late. Iâm Li Yu-yen, the secretary.â
âOh, you must be a foreigner.â
âYes, I was born in Hong Kong.â
Li Yu-yen answered politely, but Bora murmured softly.
âYes, you are from Hong Kong.â
Li Yu-yen smiled awkwardly and nodded.
âIâm a big fan of Noir movies. Oops. Iâm sorry. You can talk.â
Bora, who was muttering, slipped back.
As the talkative Bora became quiet, the silence fell immediately. Do you have anything else to talk about? Hae-won and Li Yu-yen looked at each other awkwardly and rolled their eyes only.
âOh.â
âOh.â
Then when they reached their limit, they both spoke simultaneously.
âGo ahead.â
âNo, CEO Seo first.â
A subsequent silence.
âThen,â
Bora looked with interest at the two people who boasted fantastic chemistry. However, it was a moment of madness for the two, armed with survival-type social skills.
âWell, Iâve delivered the goods safely, and Iâm sure youâre busy, so Iâll be on my way.â
Li Yu-yen struck out quickly.
âYes. Please tell him Iâll enjoy the foods.â
Hae-won also answered as if she had been waiting.
Only when Li Yu-yen left his seat did Hae-won exhale deeply. At that time, Bora crept up to Haewonâs side and put her shoulders together.
âBy the way, CEO. Donât you think heâs talking about something dangerous?â
âWhat?â
When Bora smiled insidiously without saying a word, Hae-won burst into a green smile.
âBora, youâve seen too many movies.â
âHehe. Right?â

âReport.â
âI delivered the item well, and Iâve checked with the other party.â
âWhy do you talk like a member of an organization?â
Adam looked at Li Yuyan as if he were strange.
ââ¦â¦When did I?â
Li Yu-yen frowned.
He was nervous because he wanted to get out of his seat quickly, and his body acted. But he deliberately pretended not to know because he didnât want to get caught.
âHmm.â
Adam leaned in front of the desk and stared back at Li Yuyen. He decided to let it slide, and thatâs not the point.
Then Adam asked with childlike eyes waiting for the gift.
âSo what did Haewon say?â
âWhy are you asking if you eavesdropped?â
âTsk.â
Adam gave him a look, asking him to keep his voice down.
âSomeone would misunderstand if they heard it.â
âYes.â
Li Yu-yen answered half-heartedly, and his lips twitched as if he had a mischievous thought.
âPlease tell him that Iâll enjoy the food. Right, he wasnât there when I went.â
âWho?â
âThe omega.â
Adam raised one eyebrow. And he got up by pressing down on the report he was reading with one hand.
âI should go tomorrow, tooâ
Adam, who took out his tie pin and put it on the desk, murmured as he loosened his tie.
âIâll go with you.â
âWhat, you got a girl you like in the meantime?â
Adam tilted his head slightly, and a shadow fell thickly next to the high nose bridge. Li Yu-yen hit back without losing.
âNo, Iâm just wondering how faithful you are to your Omega performance.â
âReally? Then I should be careful not to make you look like a high school student.â
This person.
He was listening to everything.
