Chapter 4 (2/2)

”I left the photo, so there will be news once they compare it to the older records”

”What if there isn't any news?”

”That's not possible I'm sure you weren't abandoned”

Thisdejected was all part of his plan He had already calculated everything in his head

”Umm, I'm sorry, but I think I'll have to stay here for a bit”

”You can't This is a one-roos”

”I won't bark and I'll hide to ht”

”Still, if the landlady sees, hell will break loose”

”Then… what should I, as abandoned by the world, do?”

Uhk⁹, don't look at ot heart attacks froazes, but it's the saainst that sad and loveable gaze

”A forms? No, should I just enter the circus?”

”Whaaat?”

”A to be i into a naked hu because I'm an orphan?”

”Th-that's unrealistic”

”Ji-On”

”Yes?”

”Let me stay for a few days Just until the police contact us”

Ha-hhh, I shouldn't be doing this I shouldn't be wavering like this Ji-On kept hesitating as she nervously bit her nails

”You feel it too, don't you? The scent of wealth wafting off of olden spoon As soon as I find out who I areatly with that spoon”

Haa, I'll probably get karht? Fine, let's just think of it as doing a kind deed It's really not because I'ratitude

”… Well, I guess it can't be helped”

Ji-On weakly nodded her head and begrudged her weak heart

”Instead, I have a condition”

A condition when you'reoff me?

”You can't ever touch me I'm a delicate man”

Ha? Ji-On's mouth dropped from the ridiculousness

”Wh-who's gonna touch who I should be worried about you touching me”

”Unfortunately, you're not my type Promise me You won't touch me”

Pahaha, an abrupt laughter of absurdity spilled out of Ji-On

”Goodness, okay We both will not touch one hair of each other”

”Yes You must never break that promise”

Dae-shi+k made her pinky promise, stamp, and copy it¹⁰

”I'llRuff, ruff”

Urg Why do I feel like I keep getting fooled by this guy?

”Excuse e now…”

”Go change in the bathroom”

It's just a feeling that I'ht?

'Dal-kak¹¹'

As soon as Ji-On went to the bathroom, Dae-shi+k pumped his two fists and said 'nice' I suspected this outco, so it doesn't icalperson's report I really don't like the old-fashi+oned nao, I'll just squat here for a while And in order to do that, I need to win over this hooing to squat at this house and slowly plan everything out Dae-shi+k's facial expression suddenly went fro that they don't even look for ht? Let's just stick it out til then At the sa up in the bathroom, looked into the mirror I can live with a male puppy, but can I live with a male human? In a one-room that has no walls? Won't it be hard? She did accept, but no ht about it, there were a lot of unco

”Excuseto sleep?”

Ji-On asked Dae-shi+k as she came out of the bathroom …However! Dae-shi+k was already settled smack dab in the middle of Ji-On's twin-sized bed

”Where do you think I'll sleep?”

He had a strange smile on his face

”Huk! That's my bed!”

”I knoouldn't I? Shouldn't guests receive the best?”

”No I cannot yield this bed”

”Then where am I supposed to sleep?”

Ji-On nodded her head to the corner of the room There was a cardboard box filled with several layers of towels to temporarily house a puppy

”With this height? With this size?”

”Then change back into a puppy!”

”I can't sleep like that for even one night”

”Then what should we do? There aren't any extra blankets or pillows”

”Well, there's no helping it then I will have to sleep here”

Dae-shi+k further sunk into the bed and straightened out his legs

”Even though I've lost my memory, this much is true I have never slept on the floor”

Heol, did I bring a dog or a -bird!

”I'll go wash up, too, master”

Heol, only a master at times like this Dae-shi+k leisurely walked into the bathroo, what can I do to hi-bird?! First, I need toThat way I can protect my bed But how? Is there soe into a puppy? It was then that Ji-On suddenly thought of an idea Yes, this ed into a dog! Oh, so that's how it's done…? It's the sa Prince? If I kiss that bastard, he'll turn into a puppy? Okay! This is it! …is what I wish But that's not easy either It's one thing to kiss hiirl kiss a man first We also promised, stae feeling froely soft and jelly-like lips And the warh her body once their lipsabout theup and down like a fish out of water Hah, what should I do? Should I just attack him as soon as he comes out of the bathroom? No! How could I do that!? What happens if I kiss him and he doesn't turn into a puppy? Then I becohts went back and forth as she grabbed her head Yes, let's at least try it He's half dog, so let's just think that I' If not, I really may have to share the bed with him No, he would actually steal the bed from me The owner of this area is me I can't let that happen Just as Ji-On made her decision…!

'Dal-kak'

The door of the bathroom opened However! The man who appeared was literally the Water God The sexily wet hair, the waterdrop surfing down his skin, the thrilling photoshoot-like body, the thin towel barely covering his lower body, the sexiest energy overflowing out of his entirety! He was the appearance of a jaw-dropping beautiful man

'How can he come out topless!'

I have to kiss th-that man? I just decided that? Unless my liver explodes out of my stomach¹², there is no way I can do that

”Umm, I'm sorry but…”

As he walked closer, Ji-On caught a whiff of shower cologne It was a familiar but unfamiliar scent since it came from him She became dizzy at that mysteriousness

”Want to give me a credit card?”

Ca-card?

”I don't have clothes to change into I want to order some from the internet”

What did you say?

”Give it to reatly later”

Suddenly the sound of glass shattering sounded in Ji-On's ear That's right, I' affected by his handso-bird is boldly playingat so my credit card is a joke! This mannerless puppy is aboveis! Ji-On solidly decided, brushed her wet hair aside, and strode towards him

”Wh-what are you doing?”

Dae-shi+k felt a bit frightened by her sudden boldness

”I told you not to touch reed ouldn't be like this!”

Dae-shi+k covered his chest by crossing his arms and tried to step back, but like Mechander Robo¹⁴ she did not stop walking And within a moment! Ji-On kissed Dae-shi+k

Dae-shi+k was flustered at the sudden situation Unable to react, he froze like a meerkat and looked down at her At the sa hi a kiss She squeezed her eyes shut and focused on brainwashi+ng herself However, no matter how much she tried to persuade herself, the lips felt too much like a human's lips These are too chewy, too soft, and too hot The sex cells all over her body see around herinto corn syrup It felt like that corn syrup was dripping down her legs and falling onto the ground Right nohile touching his lips, Ji-On couldn't help but acknowledge it HONESTLY this htlyhis eyes at her With water still dripping from his hair, he was sexy as hell But, why isn't there any change? The two people were frozen as if someone stopped time

Unbearable aardness followed afterwards The stillness that ensued ers and toes curl up fro silence e and twist like a cooked squid

'Uahhhh! There's no change!'

Her face became as red as a paprika

Right when she fisted her hands and was about to run away fro up to her head! Finally, he started changing Is this perhaps?!
