His CEO

[M] so it goes

Insung: Are you free today?

"Why is he suddenly asking?" Jihyo muttered to herself as she thinks of a reply to Insung.

Jihyo: Are you asking me out again?

Insung: I'm picking up my suit for tomorrow, and I want to know my date's opinion about it ;)

Jihyo: Can't you just send me a photo?

Insung: :(

Jihyo pursed her lips to stop herself from smiling. Then, she looked around her and saw Yejin and Nara's teasing looks. "Wae?"

"Unnie, I thought he never made you smile?" Yejin stated, her eyes narrowing slightly.

"Smile? When did I smile?"

"Am I missing something here right now?" Nara frustratingly said. "Are you already seeing someone, Jihyo?"

Jihyo shrugged. "I don't even know if we're on that stage already," she replied, realizing that she and Insung never talked about their relationship, as she was just going with the flow. He calls her and she answers, and the same thing happens vice versa.

"Oh, well. They're just making each other smile without talking about their current—"

"Yejin-ah..." Jihyo gave her a knowing look.

"So, you have a FWB?" Nara asked again.

"What?!"

"Friends with benefits, duh." Nara expanded her words further.

Jihyo rolled her eyes at that. "I know that. I wasn't born yesterday. And it was just a one-time thing!" Jihyo immediately covered her mouth after accidentally raising her voice. They were in Yoojin's cafe, and thankfully, there were still no people around.

"Unnie, calm down," Yejin told her, nervously laughing while she looked around the coffee shop.

"What happened?" Yoojin asked as she placed the tray she was holding at their table.

Jihyo immediately got her iced americano and drank it. "Look, we just got carried away that night. We were the only ones there... it was raining... and—" Why am I even explaining anyway? Jihyo thought.

"And?" Yejin, Yoojin, and Nara said in unison.

"I-I want to forget that I saw Jongkook at the party." Then, she lowered her head and immediately looked away. It was also the first time she spoke about Jongkook to her friends again. "But after that, Insung and I never talked about that night again! We just casually talk and sometimes hang out." She explained.

"Wait, so all this time you were talking with Jo Insung?" Nara reacted. "And the two of you knew?!"

"It just... happened naturally. We were surprised as you are right now." Yoojin replied.

"Unnie, how long have you known about them?" Yejin suddenly asked. "It seems like you figured out everything a long time ago."

Yoojin and Jihyo exchanged looks. "Oh, as I told you, it just happened... Yeah." Yoojin nervously laughed.

"Isn't he like engaged?" Nara asked again. "Like rumors have been going around their wedding for the past two months. I don't know how chaebols do this stuff but this wedding is really big!"

"His last serious relationship was with Hyojin unnie. I doubt he even acknowledges the fact that he's engaged." Yejin replied and took a sip of her drink. And suddenly, her phone rang. "Oh, wow. Speaking of the devil. Ne, oppa? I'm currently in Songdo. Yeah, my staff knows that you will be coming over."
