– And then everyone misunderstood.

Tae-seo, who was clicking the mouse, looked at the face of Kang Se-heon displayed on the screen and recalled what had happened during the day. After exchanging contact information, Kang Se-heon had casually mentioned that he had concealed his pheromones.

Since he hadn't been aware of pheromones, it felt like a stab. According to Kang Se-heon,  if he was an omega, he had never thought about harnessing pheromones or anything like that.

So, while Tae-seo was still bewildered and unable to say anything, Kang Se-heon got up from his seat. When he was sitting down, it was somewhat manageable because their eye levels were lower, but when he stood up, an undeniable sense of intimidation was felt. Tae-seo stared at Kang Se-heon.

With his characteristic authoritative gaze, Kang Se-heon looked down at Tae-seo and soon tapped his cheek with his index finger as  if he found him cute.

"You seem to still want to live like a beta, but you can't hide everything."

Tae-seo seemed to think that he deliberately concealed his pheromones. He was about to say that it wasn't the case when he pursed his lips. Somehow, it felt like his words would sound like excuses because of the tone that seemed to belittle him.

"Well, it's your choice, I won't meddle."

Saying so, Kang Se-heon patted his head encouragingly and left. It seemed like his hand left behind the scent of cologne on Tae-seo's head. That was what happened as soon as Tae-seo parted ways with Kang Se-heon.

As soon as he got home, he searched for Kang Se-heon. He wanted to find out who he was. And he wanted to confirm whether Kang In-hyuk was really his cousin.

As quite a lot of information appeared, Tae-seo calmly browsed through it and suddenly grabbed his own hair.

"That's why it didn't come up."

It wasn't that he didn't appear on the search engine. What Tae-seo meant was from the novel. Only after he knew in detail who Kang Se-heon was did he recall that he briefly appeared in the original work. There was no other way. In the original novel, the main character had to be the coolest and most noticeable. However, it was mentioned once in the story. Kang In-hyuk's cousin who was mentioned when he asked for help in finding Seo Da-rae who had run away. Initially skeptical of Kang In-hyuk's sudden request for help, he eventually agreed to help.  If it weren't for him, Kang In-hyuk wouldn't have been able to catch Seo Da-rae at the airport.

"How could I not have suspected such an outstanding person from head to toe."

Tae-seo pulled at his collar in frustration and tilted his head, as  if trying to relieve some tension, although it didn't seem to dispel the feeling of drowsiness.

"Should I leave this country?"

Was that really the only solution?

As the door opened, Tae-seo absentmindedly rolled his eyes and spotted a familiar face. Kang In-hyuk and Park Han-soo were entering. Tae-seo didn't feel the need to turn his head and continued to watch them. Unlike the casually dressed students around, the wine-colored sweater accentuated his neat appearance. He definitely stood out.

Surely, there wouldn't be anyone in the university who didn't know Kang In-hyuk. Well, even so, Kang In-hyuk was just Kang In-hyuk. He would eventually end up with Seo Da-rae and love only her. That was Tae-seo's observation. There was no sudden fluttering of the heart or any feeling that he could become his fiancé after seeing him.

Though his body might be Yoon Tae-seo, the essence of him was completely different. Plus, knowing the content of the novel, he wasn't attracted to Kang In-hyuk at all. Tae-seo watched him like one would watch a rolling stone.
