The Country Life Diary of a Gangster’s Secretary

A high-rise building in the middle of Seoul. Lee Hyuk was leisurely walking up to the top floor of a building that was so tall that it was hard to look up at. The employees he met bowed their heads one by one to greet Lee Hyuk in the morning. Lee Hyuk smoothly raised the corners of his lips as he walked past the employees.

“Don’t you think our CEO is in a good mood these days?”

Two employees who had been staring at his back lowered their voices.

“Totally. I heard you even paid for the employee dinner subsidy with your own money recently? Is there something good happening…?”

The employees began to infer various reasons for Lee Hyuk’s recent mood, which they could not understand. Then the two clapped their hands as if they had planned it.

“Is that why?”

“I don’t think there’s anything else that comes to mind.”

“Secretary Chun’s reinstatement.”

Then the employees burst into laughter. Lee Hyuk was standing in front of the CEO’s office without even hearing the two people chatting excitedly.

After he went inside as usual, hung up his coat, and sat down at the desk, exactly five minutes had passed.

Knock knock.

The corners of Lee Hyuk’s lips twitched as a brisk knock echoed through the room.

“Come in.”

The time indicated by the desk clock was exactly 8:51.

“Good morning, CEO.”

Hyeseong, wearing a tight-fitting suit and with his hair half up, slowly walked into the CEO’s office.

“Hyesong, hello.”

“I’ll report to you in the morning.”

Hyeseong nodded once and flipped through his tablet.

“DKD contacted me, and they said that next Wednesday would be a good date among the dates I mentioned. I’m planning to schedule a business trip around that time. Is that okay?”

“Yes.”

As always, his voice was calm and composed, and the report he was delivering was incredibly clear.

“… … Then, that’s it for the morning report.”

After finishing the smooth report without any extraneous remarks, Hye-seong closed the tablet. Lee Hyeok stared at him and soon tapped his cheek.

“I’m not done with the report.”

Hye-seong let out a deep sigh at his blatant behavior. However, without saying anything, she circled the desk and approached Lee Hyeok, who was sitting next to her.

Kiss.

Hye-seong’s lips briefly touched Lee Hyeok’s cheek and then left. Perhaps because the room was so large, the sound of “s ... “Can I kiss on the cheek?”

“That’s because the old man keeps throwing tantrums… … .”

Hye-sung had initially strongly opposed Tae-sung’s outrageous request to kiss him after finishing his morning report.

However, when he refused, Lee Hyuk started acting childishly, such as making excuses during the report time or criticizing the content, and eventually Hye-sung had no choice but to give in to his request. After much persuasion, he was able to change the request to a kiss on the cheek instead of a kiss on the mouth.

“Let’s just stay like this for a minute. It’s because I still can’t believe that Hye-sung is back as my secretary.”

Lee Hyuk buried his face in Hye-sung’s shoulder like a child.

“It’s been almost a month since I started working.”

Hye-sung was reinstated as Tae-sung’s secretary. Four months ago, Hye-sung applied for the position of secretary team leader without any more hesitation. Then, she told Lee Hyuk, who came running in surprised, her thoughts step by step.

Lee Hyuk said he would prepare for reinstatement right away without an interview, but Hye Sung stubbornly refused. He planned to properly follow the hiring process according to procedure, and he had strongly requested that Lee Hyuk not interfere in the process.

When I first received a text message saying that I had passed the interview, I felt really strange. And as planned, Secretary Yoo resigned before the wedding, and I was able to return to this position safely.

“Still, I’m excited every day. It’s so much fun to go to work.”

Of course, I did return, but not everything was the same as before. I had to get used to work again, and more than anything, the change in my relationship with Lee Hyuk was most noticeable.

If it had been my old self, I would have already finished my morning report and stared blankly at the computer in the office, but now I was sitting on his lap.

Hye Sung smiled and then lightly kissed Lee Hyuk on the lips.

“Me too. It’s been a minute, so I’ll go out.”

Lee Hyuk blinked blankly at the sudden kiss. Only after the door slammed shut did he come to his senses.

“Ah… … This is hard in another sense.”

Then he took a deep breath, feeling the dry feeling still on his lips.

After getting off work safely on time today, Hye-seong visited the hospital. He was scheduled to have a regular checkup at the morphology department every month, and today was that day.

“What should we eat for dinner after we finish?”

Hye-seong and Lee Hyuk were sitting side by side on the waiting room chair. He was holding Hye-seong’s thin waist and rubbing his pure white hands here and there.

“Um, well… … .”

While Hye-seong was lost in thought, the nurse called his name loudly. When they went inside, the doctor also greeted Lee Hyuk, who was now used to it.

“I can tell you good news today. Hye-seong’s numbers have all stabilized. You’ve improved incomparably since when you first showed up.”

The doctor showed me the monitor and explained in detail. Hye-seong’s body, which had been manifested as an omega in his mid-twenties, was unstable in many ways. His heat cycle was also like that, and there were quite a few problems, such as the occasional uncontrollable pheromone discharge.

“It seems that the stable supply of alpha pheromones helped. I was worried because he manifested as a special case, but now there is no difference at all compared to a normal omega.”

In other words, Hye-seong’s body had now settled into a complete omega. Lee Hyuk and Hye-seong’s faces brightened at the same time.

“You said that your heat cycle has become regular recently?”

“Oh, yes.”

“That’s fortunate. Well, if it’s like this, I don’t think there will be any major problems with pregnancy.”

“… … Yes?”

Hye-seong’s eyes widened. He had never heard anything about pregnancy in detail while receiving regular checkups.

He felt the strength in Lee Hyuk’s hand that he was holding.

“If you manifest after becoming an adult, the chances of pregnancy are usually slim. In addition, Hyesung had many twists and turns until she stabilized, so I was worried that she would be okay, but fortunately, she has gotten much better. If you take good care of her like this, she will be able to get pregnant without any problems.”

The doctor smiled faintly, looking at Hyesung and Lee Hyuk alternately.

“Thank you, doctor.”

Lee Hyuk nodded next to him. The two slowly left the hospital room after saying that they should extend the regular checkup cycle to two months.

“… … Sir, my hand hurts.”

“Huh? Oh, sorry.”

Lee Hyuk was using so much force that his entire hand was numb.

“Were you nervous because of the pregnancy thing earlier?”

Hyesung suddenly pushed his face in as if to tease Lee Hyuk, who was frozen in place.

“… … I imagined it.”

Lee Hyuk touched his face with his large hand. His neck and nape were flushed red. Seeing Lee Hyuk, who always seemed easygoing and playful, being so shy made me laugh. The words I said with the intention of teasing him went down better than I expected.

“Hmm, Hye-seong, but I’m not the type to force or anything. If you don’t want it, then it’s okay.”

“I want it.”

“Huh?”

“Mister, your child. He’d be really cute.”

Oh, maybe he’s handsome instead of cute? Hye-seong muttered nonchalantly as he walked down the hallway. Lee Hyuk was lost in thought and quickly ran to Hye-seong’s side.

“W-what did you mean by that?”

He was so flustered that he even stuttered.

“I want to do everything with you. Marriage, pregnancy. Don’t you want that?”

Hye-seong was honest. Of course, there were days when he was desperate to hide his feelings because he didn’t want to be caught, but now that he finally had love, he expressed his thoughts without hesitation.

When I heard the doctor’s words earlier, I was flustered, but my heart started pounding as the picture slowly formed in my head. The thought of making a promise to spend the rest of my life with Lee Hyuk, starting a family, and living happily ever after was so sweet.

“Should we reserve a place to eat first?”

When Lee Hyuk tried to take out his cell phone while making a fuss, Hye Sung eventually burst out laughing.

“Let’s reserve the place to eat later, and then decide what to eat first.”

At that moment, Lee Hyuk grabbed Hye Sung’s shoulder and pulled him into his arms.

“Let’s just go home and eat. I’ll make something delicious for you.”

The heartbeats of someone’s heartbeats thumped in their bodies as they touched each other. The pleasant beating sound rang warmly in each other’s ears.

“You can’t cook, sir. I’ll do it.”

“Okay, okay. Let’s go quickly.”

Hye Sung and Lee Hyuk’s walking speed gradually increased.

The distance between the two people who were tightly touching each other had long since disappeared.

The six years we have been together, and the countless happy futures we will have together in the future, are filled with a solid and beautiful love.
