Don't You Need an Omega Lucky Charm - Chapter 7.1
He straightened his hunched body, but his embarrassment remained unstraightened.
“Why are you saying I intentionally approached you, sunbae?”
He hadn’t done anything.
All he did was try to pick up his fallen phone and happen to find the wallet…
‘Ah.’
Suddenly, his thoughts reached the wallet.
Come to think of it, he felt like he had seen this wallet at the hospital a few days ago. Back then, when Cha Jeongwon paid the hospital bill for him, he stared intently at the wallet.
“I just found it lying in this corner… It’s yours, right, sunbae?”
“Look at this.”
Instead of taking the wallet, Cha Jeongwon merely pointed at it.
“You picked it up knowing it was mine.”
Haon’s jaw dropped at Cha Jeongwon’s words.
How could he twist it like this?
“Do you really think so?”
Cha Jeongwon looked down at Haon without the slightest change in expression.
Perhaps due to the height difference, he seemed strangely condescending.
“Yeah. That’s how it looks.”
Haon felt a surge of anger at his brief, mean response.
He took back everything about feeling sorry for him yesterday.
“Take your wallet. And whether you believe it or not, I am telling you it’s not like that.”
Haon turned his head to look for Kim Hyeongyu.
The person who said he would come look for Haon must have been Cha Jeongwon too. No wonder he was itching to bring up Cha Jeongwon the entire way here.
If the person he was supposed to meet was Cha Jeongwon, he should have told him it was Cha Jeongwon. He wondered why he made such a fuss earlier, and it turned out he intended to arrange this meeting all along.
“You’re saying no while remembering my wallet?”
“That’s… Ah, I’ll give you the hospital fee.”
He paused as he tried to talk about the hospital, then hurriedly pulled out his wallet from his pocket.
While he hurriedly pulled out his wallet and took out the cash, Cha Jeongwon drew close.
Haon stood completely frozen in surprise. Cha Jeongwon approached as if it didn’t matter whether Haon did so or not.
His breath reached him. And his pheromones reached him too.
Sweet yet heavy, that scent he smelled beneath the sculpture yesterday pierced Haon’s nose again.
He wanted to smell it more. An impulse arose to pull it deep inside his body. His lips felt bone dry as well.
Haon moistened his dry lips with his tongue and bit them lightly with his teeth.
‘Get a grip.’
That guy’s pheromones are nice. So what.
This was not the time to lose his mind over someone else’s body scent.
Haon pulled out the banknotes and held them out without even counting them. He had already set it aside to give for the hospital bill anyway, so there was no need to count it separately.
“Here, take it.”
However, Cha Jeongwon only glanced at Haon’s hand and did not take the money. On the contrary, he leaned his upper body even closer, causing Haon to flinch unconsciously.
At this rate, it felt like they would touch, though where and how…
Unable to avoid it further, his waist was almost bending backward. Haon closed his eyes tightly and turned his head.
Why did he even get up!
“You shouldn’t be doing this here.”
This is troublesome.
.The moment he tensed up, Cha Jeongwon’s presence rapidly receded. Haon blinked his eyes.
“Pretending not to, yet you still smelled my pheromones. And I’m the one misunderstanding?”
What was this supposed to mean now?
Haon was lost for words and could only blink.
He wondered what had just happened. Cha Jeongwon approached him closely and moved away without doing a thing. And at that time…
Rather than feeling relieved, an unknown emptiness rushed in.
‘No way. Why would I feel empty?’
Haon let out a dry laugh and turned his head. Cha Jeongwon was standing quietly in that spot.
“I smelled it because it was catchable. If I release pheromones, can you not smell it, sunbae?”
He was only smelling it because there was a scent.
“Pretending until the very end.”
After saying that, Cha Jeongwon took only his wallet and left coldly.
“What the.”
As Haon watched his receding back with an absurd feeling, Kim Hyeongyu came over carrying three coffees in a carrier.
“I saw him yesterday too, but he really is mercilessly handsome.”
He was indeed handsome to the point of feeling unrealistic. But that wasn’t all.
“Looks like his mood is quite terrible today too. If I walked around with a face like that, I think I’d be smiling every day.”
“Can you really say something like that right now?”
Haon grumbled as he put the money he was holding back into his wallet.
