Faux Pas × Luwoo

Yukhei stood in front of the Kim residence's front door. The house looked like a mansion from outside, with its large garden and fountain in front of it, the door was made of wood and glass with black, metal knob. Yukhei pressed the bell, and it wasn't long for the door to be opened by an old woman. She looked at the young guy's face and took a glance at the large suitcase beside him.

"Who are you, may I ask?" The old woman asked.

"Yukhei. Wong Yukhei."

The old woman smiled as she bowed and opened the door wider to allow Yukhei to enter the house.

"Welcome to Kim Residence, Mr. Yukhei. I have been informed of your visit by Mr. Kim. Please wait in the living room, the young master will be meeting you soon." she greeted politely.

Yukhei nodded and walked inside the house. The interior was dominated by white color and brown accents - everything was placed neatly and looked minimalistic with a large couch at the center of the room and chandelier hanging above it. Yukhei walked towards the couch and sat on it, waiting for the owner of the house to come out. He looked around, scanning the house that he would be living in, starting that day. It was as spacious as his house in Hong Kong, only the interior was very different from his. Yukhei sighed and pulled his phone out of his pocket, focusing on the screen instead of his surroundings; not noticing the guy he was waiting for walking down the stairs behind him.

"Welcome to Korea, Wong Yukhei. How are you?" Jungwoo spoke up, making the younger turn his head to see him while walking down the stairs with a smile across his face. The smile was obviously a fake one as there was no way he would be happy in the presence of Yukhei.

"Horrible." Yukhei answered, glaring at the smiling guy. It had only been two hours or less since he arrived in Korea, yet he wanted to go home already.

"I'm so glad to know that. I will show you your room and tell you some basic rules that you have to follow." the smile slowly faded, showing the true nature of the Korean guy. He stopped in his tracks and tilted his head, giving Yukhei a sign to stand up and follow him to the second floor.

"Don't expect me to follow the rules," said the younger as he stood up and strolled over to the stairs.

"This is my house and you are not in China so you better listen to me if you don't want anything bad to happen." Jungwoo threatened, feeling superior since he was in his own territory. He glared at the tall guy who walked closer to him, bringing his big luggage with an irritated look.

"You will just threaten to tell my dad about it."

"You know me so well." Jungwoo smiled again in a sarcastic way. Actually, he was not the type of person who would threaten others, but he had no choice whenever it came to the guy in front of him.

Yukhei sighed loudly, too tired and too irritated to even rage or complain about anything. The flight had not been too long, but the fact that he had a so-called farewell party the night before had made him exhausted and sleep deprived. He followed Jungwoo from the back and they reached the second floor in no time. It was not as spacious as the first floor; it looked more like a hallway with some rooms aligned next to one another. No one spoke up and silence lingered in the air - only footsteps could be heard.

Jungwoo walked fast, as if he wanted to finish his job to introduce the house as soon as he could and return to his room again, unbothered. They passed the rooms one by one, until they reached a room located in the corner of the hallway. Jungwoo stopped and unlocked the door - breaking the silence with the sound of a key turning in a lock. He opened the door wide and turned to face Yukhei. "This is your room. Too bad the only available room is the one next to mine. Don't be too loud because you might disturb me." He warned.
