Chapter 5.2

5.2

“Never! Well, actually… Umm… In some all-girl schools, I guess I saw some girls kinda go out with other girls who were really boyish, but still…”

“See? Anyway, I would never think a man OR a woman was ‘loose’ because he or she was good in bed. Calling a woman ‘slut’ in that situation would clearly be an example of sexism.”

Sunghee stared at him for a long time before asking bluntly,

“How old are you, Sejin?”

“Me? 30.”

“And how many women have you slept with until now?”

Sunghee could never ask Seungju a question like this, but this was Ryu Sejin. A man she wasn’t really interested in. The man who was her current sex partner and nothing more.

So what would be the problem for her to ask him a question like this? Maybe he would even tell her about the best sex he has ever had.

“I hear the worst thing you can do in life is to tell your current woman about your ex.”

Sejin leaned on the sofa comfortably. Sunghee also relaxed on the sofa and sighed.

“But you already know about all of my experiences, so this isn’t fair.”

“You had sex twice before me. I really wouldn’t call that ‘experiences’.”

“Then how amazing was your past? Tell me.”

When Sunghee narrowed her eyes at him, Sejin chuckled.

“No comment.”

“What the heck?! Just hurry up and tell me. I won’t get mad.”

She faced him and stared. She even gave him her prettiest smile. Sejin stared at her before smiling too. But again this time, his eyes didn’t smile. Sunghee frowned and grumbled,

“Gosh, you’re no fun. Is it because it was you who used to practice kissing with your friends or something?”

“Maybe. Now, I think we’ve talked enough. Let’s get to our training. Oh, wait. You said you preferred to be the seductress, so maybe you should practice on me. I’m fine with that.”

When Sejin winked at her, Sunghee giggled.

“Did you know that when you wink, it’s really hard to tell that you’re really doing it? Because your eyes are so small that it doesn’t make any difference even if you wink!” 1

“You never complain about Manager Min’s small eyes, so why do you make fun of mine?”

Sejin frowned in displeasure. It was obvious he was really upset about her comment. Sunghee blinked for a few seconds before slapping her own forehead. Now that she thought about it, she had no  memory of ever seeing Seungju with his eyes open in a normal way. But…

“But you know… Manager Min is ALWAYS smiling, so I always got the impression his eyes only LOOK small because he’s smiling. On the other hand, you never smile, Sejin. At least not in the office.”

“Because I don’t feel like smiling.”

“Do you think I smile because I always feel like it? It’s all part of being a grownup…”

Suddenly, he leaned forward and kissed her. Feeling his lips moving on top of hers, Sunghee considered pushing him away. But she gave up the idea and wrapped her arms around his neck. After all, she loved the way he kissed.

Sejin kissed her gently and tasted her lips. After a few minutes, he raised his head and bit his lower lip before lifting Sunghee. To her shock, Sejin began to carry her easily to her bedroom.

Has he lost his mind?!

“What if you get hurt? You might pull a muscle or something! Don’t blame me if you do, okay?”

She grabbed onto his neck and screamed. He held her securely, but Sunghee was afraid she might fall. She continued to hold him tight and yelled,

“If you drop me, I’m going to kick you out immediately! If I break my bone, I’m suing you, got it? Can’t you just let me down, so I can walk?! I’m nothing like Scarlett O’Hara, so I don’t need to be carried like her!” 2

“I HOPE you aren’t like Scarlett O’Hara. She was a man-eater, so if you are like her, I would be in big trouble.”

Sejin placed her on the bed gently and murmured. Sunghee sighed in relief and looked up at him.

“But she lived an amazing life. Her family became ruined, but she managed to catch a rich man. She even married the man she liked.”

“But in the end, that man left her.”

Sejin took his shirt off. After a very short hesitation, Sunghee began to undress herself as well. She knew what was coming, so why not save some time? Sejin watched her and smiled.

“I can see you’re getting used to this quickly, Sunghee.”

“Of course. I’m not an idiot.”

She threw her blouse and skirt on the floor and laid down. Watching Sejin take his pants off, she stretched her body and gave him a sly smile. Sejin raised an eyebrow.

“Are you trying to seduce me right now?”

“Of course! That means you should be drooling all over me, so why do you look so calm?”

Sunghee propped her head on her elbow and looked at him. Sejin seemed to be thinking hard before frowning and shaking his head.

“You’re still wearing your slip, bra, and panties. So no matter what kind of position you take, it’s not gonna do much for me. Why not just wear that slip and stockings? Or wear all black bras, panties, and stockings. Right now, you look like you’re wearing too much. You might as well be wearing an armor.”
