Chapter 57

Hye Ji Won indeed remembered. Unlike Lee Jung Hee, who let things go after they happened without much thought, she had been receiving poor treatment from her agency and manager, even her assistant, which made her both angry and curious about what had happened that night.

Then, as she struggled to recall, slowly, she began to piece together some fragments. In the end, after she deliberately went to the places and the hotel where she and Lee Jung Hee had been that night, she connected all the dots.

Therefore, when she heard Lee Jung Hee's words, she became even more annoyed. She grabbed the pillow he had taken and pounced on him, hitting him with her hands while saying in a mix of shame and anger, "You, haven't you remembered anything at all? You bastard!"

Lee Jung Hee looked innocent; he really couldn't remember anything. Hye Ji Won's hands were heavy, and she hit him several times, which really hurt. He had to grab her hands and say very sincerely, "I can swear to the heavens, I really can't remember anything at all..."

He then looked at her and smiled helplessly, "Why don't you tell me what happened, and I'll accept whatever consequences..."

"Spit!" Hye Ji Won spat at him, as if remembering something, her face turned slightly red. She struggled a couple of times, freeing her hands, but her eyes still glared at him angrily.

Only after she was very sure he wasn't lying did she reluctantly let him go. She remembered, but she was too embarrassed to say anything. Thinking about it made her even angrier, and she grabbed the pillow and hit him again.

Seeing her still stubborn, and since she wasn't going to say anything, and the situation that night was clearly very strange and not something healthy, Lee Jung Hee finally decided not to ask anymore.

He said sincerely, "No matter what, I genuinely want to help you. And why don't you choose better conditions? Don't you want complete freedom? I can also guarantee that you will get better roles and become famous faster..."

"Tsk!" This was Hye Ji Won's response, but she looked less angry. This was good, so Lee Jung Hee began to explain in detail all the favorable conditions and promises, essentially saying that whatever she wanted, she could have.

Who doesn't want to become famous quickly, earn a lot of money, and have complete freedom? Hye Ji Won was human, and she certainly wanted it too. Besides, as Lee Jung Hee said, the situation had changed from before.

Therefore, with his continuous efforts, Hye Ji Won finally nodded, "Alright, I'll think about it!" Then she glared at him again, pouting, "Stop talking, you're so noisy!"

"Got it!" Lee Jung Hee finally smiled, shrugged, and looked at the time, "Uh, it's late, I'll go first!"

This bastard, he did it again. Hye Ji Won was taken aback and felt even more angry. Every time, he acted as if there was nothing to talk about with her, and once he finished his business, he left immediately, which really irritated her.

However, she couldn't just randomly get angry, but she didn't want him to leave like this. So, she turned her eyes and, looking at Lee Jung Hee who was about to stand up and leave, suddenly said in a soft voice, "Stay and chat with me a bit more!"

However, after saying this, her cheeks turned red. A woman asking a man to chat longer could be seen as a hint, and something might happen. Fortunately, Lee Jung Hee didn't seem to think much of it, but this made her a bit annoyed, and she bit her lip.

So, her tone became a bit sharp, "What do you want to drink?"

Lee Jung Hee was a bit confused but, based on the principle that he should take responsibility for what he caused, he pretended to be clueless, "Oh, anything is fine!"

"What do you mean, anything!" Hye Ji Won glanced at him, pouted, but then her eyes twinkled. She took a bottle of soju from the fridge and handed it to him, "Here!" Seeing his helpless expression, she finally giggled and put the soju away. She wasn't really going to let him drink it; if he got drunk, who knows what he might do, though...

In the end, she gave him a bottle of coffee and casually said, "What have you been up to lately? I heard your 'Friend' project has started, and Jang Dong Gun has joined, with an investment of 4.5 billion won..."

As she spoke, she frowned and looked at him suspiciously, "Where did you get so much money?"

"Loans!" After saying this, Lee Jung Hee explained in detail, but Hye Ji Won stared at him in shock and finally said worriedly, "Aren't you afraid of losing money and ruining yourself?"

Lee Jung Hee smiled, understanding her concern about the future of his company, so he had to say, "Uh, if I tell you that my family has some money, and this amount isn't much to us..."

Although he didn't want to, he had to mention the mansion in Cheongnyangni and his father's company in New York.

"Tsk!" Hye Ji Won sneered, looking at him as if he were a wastrel. Lee Jung Hee could only smile helplessly. Then, he changed the topic, "Well, I'm going to be an actor too!"

When Hye Ji Won heard that he was playing the role of Han Tae Sik in 'Blue生死恋' (Blue生死恋 is a placeholder for the actual title, which is 'Blue生死恋' in Chinese, 'Blue生死恋' in Korean, and 'Blue生死恋' in Japanese), she stared at him in surprise, "Really?" Then, like Kim Tae Hee's reaction, she sneered, "Are you sure you can act?" This was because they had worked together on 'Ajeossi' and she knew he didn't have that talent.

"Ah!" Lee Jung Hee shrugged, knowing that talking more wouldn't help, so he said bluntly, "You'll know when the drama airs..."

Their relationship could be considered familiar but not close, and they had never really chatted together. Today, because of what happened that night, they temporarily put aside their awkwardness and grievances and sat down to chat for the first time in such a relaxed atmosphere at home. The conversation naturally spread out, and they became more relaxed, even talking about Hye Ji Won's experiences of being bullied by classmates in high school. They chatted more and more, forgetting the time...

"Knock! Knock! Knock!" A hurried and muffled knocking sound came from the door, along with a voice calling, "Miss Hye Ji Won, Miss Hye Ji Won..."

Both Lee Jung Hee and Hye Ji Won were startled by the sound and realized they were lying on the bed, with Hye Ji Won clearly in Lee Jung Hee's arms.

However, this time, their memory was clear. They had moved from the sofa to the bed and fell asleep while talking. As for how she ended up in his arms, with both of them still fully clothed, it could be ignored.

"Uh!" Lee Jung Hee was a bit embarrassed, but Hye Ji Won quickly regained her composure, covering his mouth and whispering, "Don't make a sound."

This was nothing compared to what happened that night, and she didn't care. She quickly pulled him up and led him to the bathroom, saying loudly, "Okay, I heard you, I'm coming right away!"

Then, she whispered in Lee Jung Hee's ear, "This is my assistant. You stay here, and when we leave, you can go out, got it?"

How could he not understand? He had seen similar scenes in movies. Lee Jung Hee nodded, watching Hye Ji Won leave. He turned to look at the bright sky outside and checked his watch; it was almost 8:30.

Thinking about how they had chatted late into the night, he understood why he hadn't woken up early. He could hear Hye Ji Won's assistant coming in, and after a few words with her, she came in with some clothes.

"Turn around!" Hye Ji Won, who had quickly washed up, glared at Lee Jung Hee, who was still standing there, and told him to turn around. She then quickly took off her T-shirt and pajama pants and started changing.

Unfortunately, Lee Jung Hee turned around, but the bathroom had a large mirror. Although Hye Ji Won was facing away, he could still see her smooth, delicate back and the tight, round buttocks wrapped in white cotton panties. Even when she bent over, he could catch a glimpse of her beautiful, full chest...

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Lee Jung Hee coughed lightly and turned his head away. He only relaxed when Hye Ji Won finished changing. However, his sigh of relief made Hye Ji Won, who saw it in the mirror, instantly understand.

Her face turned red, and she didn't care that someone was outside. She reached out and hit him several times, but couldn't yell at him. Finally, she grabbed his hand and bit it hard.

"What's going on?" Hye Ji Won's assistant, hearing the commotion inside, asked curiously.

Hye Ji Won finally let go of Lee Jung Hee, who was gritting his teeth, and said casually, "Nothing, there's a pesky mosquito..." Then she elbowed him and checked her appearance in the mirror before leaving.

Although there was a small incident, it was over. Lee Jung Hee sighed in relief, and Hye Ji Won, who was holding her bag and about to leave with her assistant, also relaxed.

However, at that moment, Lee Jung Hee's phone suddenly rang... PS: Ah, recommendation votes, dear!
