How to Have a Baby S Chapter 75

The mont Sunwoo realized what the sensation on his hand was, he froze, forgetting even how to breathe.

“It’s delicious.”

Kang Jinwook casually pulled his head back, as if nothing had happened. His lips, slightly moist, had just eaten the Hallabong that had been in Sunwoo’s hand.

Then, the tongue inside his mouth pushed out, lightly brushing against his lower lip before disappearing again.

“...!”

Sunwoo’s eyes widened in shock. It felt as though his heart had attached itself to the finger where the Hallabong had disappeared, thumping loudly.

“Choi Sunwoo.”

Kang Jinwook called out. Sunwoo blinked rapidly. As Kang Jinwook observed him quietly, a faint smile appeared on his lips.

“Why are you so flustered?”

“Ah, no. Why did you do that... that...!”

It wasn’t that he was flustered. It was just that Kang Jinwook had suddenly leaned in and eaten the Hallabong Sunwoo had been holding. That was why, but the words didn’t co out properly.

Sunwoo struggled with his words for a while, then gave up. Instead, he looked down at his empty hand. The tips of his fingers, still slightly damp, seed to carry the tangy-sweet scent of Hallabong and the fresh, clear scent of the forest.

His heart was wildly beating. Sunwoo couldn’t easily define what emotion this was.

He subtly turned his head again to look forward. Kang Jinwook, the one who had embarrassed him, was watching the news with an expression of complete nonchalance.

[ A waste disposal company representative is reportedly under investigation for allegedly providing illegal political funds to candidate A during the last election.

According to one report, a forr mber of the campaign staff revealed to a journalist that the company’s representative had given cash and bank transfers totaling between 10 million and 30 million won to candidate A three tis as "sponsorship funds." ]

Sunwoo lost interest in the political story, which had no bearing on him. From Kang Jinwook’s uninterested expression, it seed he wasn’t particularly concerned either.

“Should I change the channel?”

“Do whatever you want.”

Kang Jinwook answered without hesitation. Sunwoo took the remote control and pressed a button. He flipped through channels and ended up on a family drama that was airing, fitting for the ti.

Though he wasn’t really interested, it seed like sothing he and Kang Jinwook could watch without issue.

...But, it turned out the show was a lot more dramatic than he expected.

The plot was about siblings fighting over their father’s inheritance, but of course, both brothers liked the sa Oga, which was only making their already strained relationship spiral toward disaster.

What caught Sunwoo’s attention was how the situation seed eerily similar to the dynamic between Kang Jinwook and his older brother, Kang Jin-tae.

A younger brother, a dominant Alpha with superior genetics, envied by the older brother, who, unable to overco his jealousy, also coveted the Oga the younger brother loved.

The drama ended just before the older brother, who had sent soone to kidnap the Oga in heat to a vacation ho, was about to be caught by the younger brother who had co to the rescue.

Would the next episode show the brothers fighting it out while the Oga tries to stop them? But isn’t it dangerous for an Oga to be in heat like that?

So how does it play out between the two Alphas?

“Ah...!”

As Sunwoo thought about how things would unfold next, he suddenly rembered the events that happened in Jeju. The ntion of an Oga in heat in the show brought Im Haewon to mind.

What had happened between Kang Jinwook and Im Haewon afterward? Could that have been the start of sothing between the two of them? It made sense, after all.

In this world, the protagonists were Kang Jinwook and Im Haewon.

That thought made Sunwoo’s stomach suddenly ache, and he rubbed it lightly.

“Hey, I wanted to ask...”

“Hmm?”

Sunwoo, who had been deep in thought for a while, finally spoke up. Kang Jinwook imdiately turned his head, and their eyes t. Sunwoo hesitated, unsure whether to speak.

He wondered if asking about this might cause unnecessary misunderstandings. But since he had started, should he ask anyway?

“How’s Im Haewon?”

The mont Sunwoo asked the question, Kang Jinwook furrowed his brow. His reaction made it clear that he wasn’t happy, and Sunwoo imdiately regretted bringing it up.

“I heard you were looking after him in Jeju. I’ve had a lot going on since then and forgot, but it just popped into my mind.”

Truthfully, that wasn’t the question Sunwoo had intended to ask. Still, Kang Jinwook’s frown didn’t fade.

“Did you take care of it?”

Fortunately, Kang Jinwook’s answer wasn’t harsh. He seed indifferent about Im Haewon. Sunwoo felt a sense of relief, though he couldn’t help but feel foolish for thinking about it.

A quiet silence filled the room as several broadcasts passed by. It was already after 10 PM, and Sunwoo’s eyelids were starting to grow heavy.

Actually, Sunwoo had been nodding off for a while, trying to stay awake without Kang Jinwook noticing. Every ti his head drooped, he would quickly lift it up, and when he felt like it was going to fall to the side, he’d hastily correct his posture.

Whenever he glanced at Kang Jinwook, he noticed that Kang Jinwook had his gaze fixed on the TV. Sunwoo wondered what was so interesting, but every ti he looked, it seed like nothing special. Still, Kang Jinwook stayed there, seemingly waiting for Sunwoo to fall asleep before leaving.

Well, he could just leave and go to his room first, but Sunwoo found himself not wanting to leave the spot, even while dozing off.

Eventually, Sunwoo’s head dropped to the sofa. Kang Jinwook quietly heard the soft breaths coming from the side.

The TV was airing a lively discussion between several journalists about societal issues. At that mont, Kang Jinwook’s phone, which had been in his pocket, rang.

He imdiately took out his phone and checked the contents.

[ As requested, two tasks have been completed. ]

Seeing the ssage from an unsaved number, Kang Jinwook deleted it without a second thought. It was sothing he had expected to happen, so there wasn’t anything particularly noteworthy.

Kang Jinwook returned his gaze to the TV. After the election, there were always routine matters that followed.

Illegal political funds, real estate speculation, hidden assets, family or relative corruption, and personal morality-related incidents.

[ The newly elected official claims that the land, which he purchased for farming purposes, was already prepared for a vacation ho, raising suspicions of violating agricultural land laws. Interestingly, the land was sold by a mber of parliant who has recently been linked to illegal political fund scandals... ]

Right now, the TV was filled with various corruption allegations involving elected officials, most of which were unsubstantiated rumors, much like celebrity scandals.

With a casual flick of his hand, Kang Jinwook grabbed the remote control next to Sunwoo and turned off the TV.

The living room instantly beca quiet. Kang Jinwook set the remote down on the table and stood up. He turned to the side and, without hesitation, picked up Sunwoo, who had fallen asleep.

The butler, who had quietly observed them, imdiately went to Sunwoo’s room and opened the door, stepping aside to let Kang Jinwook through.

Once inside, Kang Jinwook carefully laid Sunwoo down on the bed. He gazed at Sunwoo’s sleeping face for a mont, then turned and left the room.

“Tomorrow, we’re going for Sunwoo’s check-up.”

The butler followed him out, informing him of Sunwoo’s schedule. After the check-up when they arrived from Jeju, they had conducted an overall examination, and now they were going to check the results.

“Make sure not to draw attention.”

The aning was clear, even without further explanation. The butler nodded shortly. What seed like the end of the conversation didn’t stop there.

“Well, it wouldn’t hurt to leak a bit.”

“Leak... what do you an?”

Was he referring to the pregnancy? The butler’s expression tensed.

Only she knew about Sunwoo’s pregnancy in the household.

That ant Kang Jinwook was deeply concerned about Sunwoo’s well-being. Especially, it was critical that this information didn’t reach Chairman Kang’s ears.

The tests Sunwoo had taken were about his and the baby’s health, but it was intended to be treated as an ordinary health check-up.

“It should be fine to share a bit about the genetics.”

“Ah.”

The butler realized her misunderstanding at Kang Jinwook’s words. Of course, he wouldn’t have asked her to disclose sothing problematic about Sunwoo.

It was still hard to understand what he ant by ‘leaking’ information, but he was the one who had to make the decision after carefully considering the situation.

“I understand.”

The butler lowered her head without further comnt.

“Choi Sunwoo entered Kang Jinwook’s house? Since when?”

After a brief eting with Im Haewon, Kang Jin-tae, who was feeling good about resolving what he wanted, casually asked.

“About a week ago.”

But the answer that followed made Kang Jin-tae’s face scrunch up in disbelief.

“A week? You an you didn’t know until now?”

He had people watching Kang Jinwook and Sunwoo’s every move, so why was he only hearing about this now?

“How did you handle this?”

“I’m sorry.”

The assistant, who had been reporting to Kang Jin-tae, looked pale.

“Didn’t you get any contact from the person you assigned to Kang Jinwook in Jeju?”

“Well... there have been photos and reports, but I didn’t notice anything unusual.”

“Doesn’t that an there’s a problem with that person? How could you not realize this until now?”

Kang Jin-tae’s eyes blazed with fury. At the sa ti, the car was filled with his curses and angry shouts.
