Whether it was because of his libido or the man’s face, Yeon-rok ended up giving in to Choi Hwan’s temptation. Like two people who had just become adults and were consumed by sexual desire, they spent an hour straight on the bed, kissing and sucking on each other. Seeing how Choi Hwan kept touching his buttocks, it seemed he wanted to go inside Yeon-rok. However, since Yeon-rok was a patient whose head shouldn’t be shaken, it was evident that he was barely holding himself back.
‘I guess I’m the bottom…’
It looked quite large; would it hurt if he put it in? He had enjoyed it earlier, so wouldn’t that be even better? Yeon-rok yawned, feeling intensely curious about his lost memories. The dizziness had mostly subsided, but perhaps because his body wasn’t normal, or maybe due to the afterglow of their erotic activities, his eyes began to close.
“Are you sleepy?”
Asking this, Choi Hwan tenderly pulled the blanket up to Yeon-rok’s neck. As soon as the ‘Do Not Disturb’ sign was removed, a nurse immediately came in to check his condition, which made Yeon-rok feel a bit embarrassed. Only Choi Hwan remained unfazed, kissing Yeon-rok as he asked,
“You’ll probably have to be hospitalized for a few days at least. Should I bring Yeondu for you?”
“Huh? I’d appreciate that.”
Seeing that he knew about his attachment doll, it seemed certain that the man was indeed his lover. Telling him to get some deep sleep, Choi Hwan patted Yeon-rok, swapped places with the bodyguard, and left the hospital room. The bodyguard, who seemed to know him well, gave a smirk. Yeon-rok soon fell asleep in a peaceful mood. However, he woke up just a few minutes later. It was because the hospital room door suddenly slid open with a clatter.
“Yeon-rok-ah!”
An exceptionally delicate-looking handsome man, looking completely disheveled, strode toward him. Before a startled Yeon-rok could ask who he was, the man caressed his face affectionately. Up close, the man’s face was completely devoid of color.
“I heard you were in an accident. Where and how were you hurt? I’m sorry. I left as soon as I heard, but the traffic was so bad that I’m late. How are you feeling?”
As he spoke, he kissed various parts of Yeon-rok’s face, and finally his lips, leaving Yeon-rok completely stunned. Huh? What is happening? I’m name partners with Choi Hwan, so why is this person kissing me so naturally?
“Nothing’s broken, right? How on earth did this happen?”
“That, Choi Hwan…”
Before the flustered Yeon-rok could even finish his stuttering sentence, the man snorted. It seemed he was acquainted with Choi Hwan.
“Ha! Of course. Who else but Choi Hwan would cause a mess like this? Just wait a moment. I’ll go listen to what the doctor has to say.”
The man who had arrived like a whirlwind left the room just as quickly. Now completely wide awake, Yeon-rok thought in bewilderment.
Am I… currently two-timing?
“…!”
You crazy bastard! You have a name partner, so how could you cheat?!
To think I was such a brazen and wicked person? Where had the Lee Yeon-rok gone, who had firmly vowed to be faithful until death once he met his name partner? What should I do? Do Choi Hwan and this man know that I’m cheating? Shouldn’t I tell them honestly right now?
While Yeon-rok was clutching his head in distress, Moon Gyeon-woo burst back in, his face even paler than before.
“Amnesia? Yeon-rok-ah, do you really not remember me? I’m Moon Gyeon-woo. Does the name not ring a bell at all?”
“I’m sorry. I don’t remember…”
“You don’t remember anything that happened at our villa either?”
The frustration etched on the devastated man’s face showed his feelings for Yeon-rok. Perhaps because he was so shocked, the hand he held was cold, which only increased Yeon-rok’s guilt. After fidgeting with his hand for a long time in a somber atmosphere, Moon Gyeon-woo forced a smile.
“No. Still, you hit your head, so it’s a relief that it ended with just this.”
Seeing such clear affection shown to him, Yeon-rok felt even more lost for words. Just as he hesitated and was about to speak honestly, a nurse entered again to change the IV drip, and his mouth shut once more. Moon Gyeon-woo looked pitifully at the site where the needle was inserted and the bruise on Yeon-rok’s forehead before asking,
“Where did Choi Hwan go?”
“He, went to get something from home…”
It was just as Yeon-rok gathered his courage to ask, ‘By the way, what is our relationship?’ when someone knocked on the door.
“Excuse me, are you Mr. Lee Yeon-rok? Could we speak with you for a moment regarding the incident?”
The police had arrived. Knowing well that Yeon-rok knew nothing about the incident due to his memory loss, Moon Gyeon-woo stood up abruptly.
“I am his legal guardian, so please speak with me first.”
Huh? My legal guardian? For some reason, it didn’t seem like Moon Gyeon-woo was lying. He couldn’t even begin to guess how that was possible. As an orphan, the only existence of ‘family’ possible for him was a name partner. Yeon-rok fell deeper into confusion.
Meanwhile, Moon Gyeon-woo emphasized to the police that the patient was currently in a state of mental and physical weakness due to a head injury and remembered nothing about the incident.
“So it would be better to speak with other witnesses. Choi Hwan and the bodyguards should have been there…”
The police officers were convinced after glancing at the bump on Yeon-rok’s forehead and his gaunt face, which looked not just blank but completely soulless.
“Is that so? Then we will meet the other parties first.”
“Oh, and I believe one of the perpetrators is someone I know…”
While talking to the police, Moon Gyeon-woo gestured kindly to Yeon-rok and said,
“It looks like this will take a while, so keep sleeping, Yeon-rok-ah. Call me immediately if you need anything, and press the call bell right away if you feel pain or something is wrong. Got it?”
“Yeah… take care.”
Left alone in the room, Yeon-rok clutched his head. He simply could not comprehend why he currently had two lovers.
His mind was so chaotic that he didn’t think he could sleep, but perhaps because of the head injury, he fell back asleep in less than a few minutes. When he woke up because a nurse woke him for a status check, he found his attachment doll tucked by his side. It seemed Choi Hwan had stopped by while he was sleeping. Feeling troubled, he fiddled with Yeondu and drifted off to sleep again.
He woke up again because of a hand gently stroking his forehead. Is it Choi Hwan? With that thought, he opened his eyes, but unexpectedly, it wasn’t. A man was touching Yeon-rok’s forehead with an expressionless face, and when their eyes met, he gave a smile.
“Did you sleep well? I hope I didn’t wake you for no reason. I thought you had a slight fever, so I was checking and…”
A shadow fell over his face as he leaned down to examine Yeon-rok’s complexion in detail. His massive build was impressive, and he was a handsome man, though with a different vibe than Moon Gyeon-woo or Choi Hwan. As the surreal situations continued, Yeon-rok swallowed hard. His pupils trembled.
‘Who is this person now?’
He was startled. It was because the man kissed his forehead, which was damp with cold sweat. This was truly driving him crazy. Was he not just two-timing, but three-timing? No, right? Surely not? This person has only kissed him so far…
No! Kissing someone who has a lover is plenty strange!
“Who… who are you?”
Shocked, Yeon-rok asked cautiously, deeply doubting his past personality and conscience. At that, the man looked apologetic, as if he understood.
“I heard the circumstances from the attending physician. I suppose I am a stranger to you right now, Yeon-rok-ssi; I was thoughtless. My name is Yeom Cheon-ho. Please call me whatever you are comfortable with. By the way, why are you sweating so much?”
Yeom Cheon-ho. While Yeon-rok was chewing over the man’s name, Yeom Cheon-ho stood up to call the medical staff. Yeon-rok stopped him.
“No, I’m okay. I think I was just a bit hot.”
His physical condition wasn’t great, but he actually was a bit hot. It seemed the indoor temperature had been raised slightly out of consideration for Yeon-rok as a patient. Come to think of it, he also wanted to go to the bathroom. It was because he had been sleeping with the IV connected. As Yeon-rok tried to clumsily pull himself up, Yeom Cheon-ho reached out and firmly pressed down on his shoulder. He seemed to apply a bit of strength, and it was impossible to get up.
“Do not get up.”
Yeom Cheon-ho spoke sternly, pointing to the fall prevention warning sign. Neither Choi Hwan nor Moon Gyeon-woo seemed like easy people, but this man made him feel even less inclined to resist. No matter how he looked at it, this was clearly someone used to commanding subordinates. Perhaps a high-ranking boss?
“I want to go to the bathroom. And I want to wash up since I’m sweating.”
“Still, you cannot. It says to press the call bell when moving. It would be a disaster if a sick person like you slipped and fell in the bathroom.”
What? I have to call medical staff just to go to the bathroom? It was an incredibly embarrassing situation for Yeon-rok. Above all, thanks to Choi Hwan, he had recovered quite a bit and now only felt slightly dizzy with a minor headache.
“Then I won’t wash up, I’ll just go to the bathroom…”
Yeon-rok attempted to negotiate.
