Chapter 400: Babysit.
As soon as the plane landed, Dan-Han took them to the hotel where he had reservations.
He observed Eun-sun as she gazed around the hotel lobby in awe. Her eyes glistened like she hadn’t seen anything like it before. She always had that look whenever she went sowhere new, and it stirred up the urge in him to show her the world, take her to all the places she hadn’t been before, and that was sothing he’d live up to. She was just too easy to please.
“You like it?” He asked as she kept snapping her neck around, her eyes darting back and forth in wondernt as she took in whatever she could of the ambiance. What caught Eun-sun’s eyes the most was the fantastic fountain at the heart of the lobby and the artificial waterfall fountain adjacent to it.
She turned to Dan-Han with glistening eyes and eagerly bobbed her head. “It’s beautiful.” She happily said.
Eun-sun felt another wave of nostalgia hit her as she took in the place’s ambiance. Being in Dan-Han’s arms in a beautiful place like this reeled back the unforgettable mories of their beautiful dates in this city weeks ago.
Her eyes twinkled as she lifted her head and kissed his cheeks.
Dan-Han lowered his head and looked at her with amusing eyes, a pleasant smile edging his lips.
.....
“What was that for?” He asked as she lifted her head again and dropped another feathery kiss on his cheek, making him chuckle at her cute little actions.
Eun-sun shrugged non-committally and pursed her lips to hide the shy smile on her face. No matter how hard she tried, Dan-Han still made her feel conscious despite the ti they’ve been together, and she couldn’t stop herself from blushing whenever he smiled at her. Maybe it was the feeling of knowing his smile was sacred and exclusive to her and that she was the reason behind every smile on his face. “I couldn’t help it.” She said with a bashful shake of her head.
Dan-Han couldn’t help but laugh at her pretense of being shy. “You fake shy girl. You’re not shy, Eun-sun. So stop acting like you are.” He teased, and she slightly hit him on his chest while trying to bury her flushed face in his chest.
Ni-Na, who stood by the sidelines, compulsively treated to an unnecessary display of affection, rolled her eyes as she wondered if the Dan-Han before her was the very man who had helped her mother raise with an iron fist. It was unbelievable.
She glared at them and snorted as she trotted towards the elevator, leaving them with the choice to follow behind if they ever decided to close the curtains to their charade of giggles and kisses.
“Co on, let’s go.” Eun-sun eagerly told him when she saw Ni-Na walking away, and Dan-Han did as he was commanded.
With Eun-sun still in his arms, he tossed the card in his hand towards Ni-Na, and she reflexively caught it.
“Your suite is next to ours, and I’m sure your bags have been moved there. You can go check it out when I return.”
“Return?” Ni-Na asked with a curious frown as she confusedly stared at Dan-Han. “Are you going sowhere?” She inquired, but she obtained her answer from the blank look on his face because she knew he’d never give her an answer.
Ni-Na turned fully towards him, her frown running deeper and drawing her brows into a tight knot. “Are you here for business or a vacation?” She firmly demanded.
Dan-Han threw a side glance at her. “You should know better than to ask such questions. Just do as you’re told, Ni-Na. I’ll be back as soon as possible.” He sternly told her. He was about to say sothing else when the elevator door chid on arrival, and he swallowed back whatever it was before stepping out of the elevator.
Ni-Na confusedly glanced at Eun-sun for clarity, and that’s when she observed the apologetic look she had on her face that confird her suspicion that Eun-sun might have withheld so crucial information about this trip.
Ni-Na walked behind Dan-Han as he led them towards his suite, where they found the bellboy already waiting with their luggage.
He bowed to them and held the door open before excusing himself.
Ni-Na bit her lips to stop the urge to pose another question to Dan-Han. She turned to Eun-sun when she heard her asking
“When will you be back?”
Exactly! When will he be back?! Ni-Na roared inside of her.
“Before dinner.” He vaguely replied, and Eun-sun nodded. She looked at the watch on her wrist and observed the ti. It was barely a few minutes past eleven in the morning.
She deeply heaved. It was just going to be a few hours, and she’d spend them with Ni-Na.
Dan-Han placed her on the couch and planted himself in front of her knees while his fingers reached for her hair and gently combed through it. “Eat lunch and wait for . Also, take the ds Jae-Hyun gave you. I’ll be back before you know it.” He softly told her.
Eun-sun could hear the tenderness in his voice, and she knew it was because he was feeling bad for bringing her there only to leave her as soon as they arrived.
Eun-sun flashed him a sweet smile as she trailed her hand along the length of his jaw. “You don’t have to worry about . I’ll be here with Ni-Na, and we’ll be fine.” She assured him.
“I won’t be fine!” Ni-Na refuted with a sigh.
Dan-Han sighed as he turned towards Ni-Na, who still maintained a grumpy look as she openly glared at him. He turned away and ignored her.
He placed a kiss on Eun-sun’s forehead. “Don’t move about.” He told her, and she obediently bobbed her head.
He rose to his feet and glanced at Ni-Na again. “Don’t look for trouble.” He told her and walked away while she snorted after him.
Ni-Na folded her hand across her chest as she intently glared at Eun-Sun.
“Why are we really here?” She sternly asked.
“You an why are you really here?” Eun-sun redirected her question with a raise of her brows and a slight smile.
“Whichever way you want to put it,” Ni-Na replied.
Eun-sun put away her phone on the table beside her and replied. “He has so business to attend to, so you’re here to babysit .”
“Babysit?” Ni-Na stopped herself from snapping. Babysitting wasn’t the reason why she had agreed to co along. She had thought there were going on-
“What happened to having fun?” She evenly asked. “We’re still going to have fun, right?” She curiously inquired.
“Isn’t babysitting fun?” Eun-sun teased while Ni-Na rolled her eyes.
“Firstly, you’re not a baby. Maybe my brother’s but not mine. Secondly, you’re a grown woman who’s supposed to be having fun with and not rotting away in a hotel room. What happened to shopping and-” She paused as she tried to put her words together. This sudden news was drying her juices. “T..to shopping and everything exciting.” She rapped out.
Eun-sun shrugged and lolled back on the couch. “Well, that’s the extra curriculum you’ve been hired for.” She said, but Ni-Na suspiciously narrowed her brows at her.
“Are you saying-”
“Your brother agreed you ca along because he wants you to keep company, but I wanted you to co because I thought we could be a bit rebellious, but moderately rebellious.” She quickly added when she saw the mischievous glint that suddenly glistened in her eyes.
Ni-Na pouted her lips as she tried not to smile too devilishly, but Eun-sun could see the admiration and excitent in her eyes. “My brother couldn’t have made a better choice. We’re so having fun, whatever kind this place can provide.” She half squealed while Eun-sun cautiously smiled.
Whenever Ni-Na zapped into her happy mood, she beca a different person who made her nervous, but she liked her anyway.
Away from there, Dan-Han answered his phone the mont he stepped into the car.
“Do you have it?” He asked.
“Yes.” The person over the phone replied.
“et at the hospital.” He ordered before intercepting the call, but as soon as he did, he received a ssage from A-Yeong that she had just arrived at the airport and requested a location, and he sent her a text to et him at the hospital.
He didn’t need to tell her the reason for the eting at the hospital because he was sure she had a clue of what it was.
Dan-Han made his way to the hospital, and the mont he arrived, he t a few people who were already waiting for him.
“Mr. Lee.” A middle-aged doctor dressed in a white lab coat bowed as well as the people behind him. Dan-Han frowned, seeing the unnecessary number of people looking at him.
“What part of discreet did you not understand?” He coldly asked the man, who suddenly trembled. Small beads of sweat ford on his face and the others standing behind him.
“I’m sorry, President Lee. I just thought-” He stuttered. He turned towards the people behind and surreptitiously signaled them to leave, and they all scrambled away.
“I’m sorry, President Lee. I didn’t an to-”
“Lead the way.” He ordered, not having the leisure ti to accommodate his apology. The man vigorously nodded and quickly led the way.
The man led him to his office, where Dan-Han saw one of his subordinates waiting. He had sent the man over even before he boarded his plane.
“Boss.” The man jerked to his feet and bowed the mont he saw Dan-Han.
“Where is it?” He asked, and the man brought a specin bag containing a few strands of hair.
Dan-Han received it and gave it to the doctor. “How long will the test take.”
“A few hours.” He hurriedly replied.
“Good.” Dan-Han nodded.
“Then take my sample and send the results the mont it’s out.” He ordered.
