Upon hearing this, Guangyou was somewhat bewildered.
It came suddenly, and the topic was rather unusual.
He didn't even consider it a joke, and quickly waved his hand, politely declining.
"Ms. Judy, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
He only realized something was wrong after he said it.
If Judy could shift her attention so easily, she would have done so long ago, knowing that reconciliation was impossible.
Why wait until now?
Besides, given his current physical condition...
There is a complete legal framework in place to address this bold idea.
Moreover, Judy is an FBI agent, so it's even more impossible.
The FBI takes this very seriously, considering it no less dangerous than the "one-off" incident.
In other words...
As if somewhat angry, Kwang-woo finished his drink, his tone turning slightly cold:
“Ms. Judy, this joke is really not funny.”
He was faking his anger, of course.
If joking makes Judy feel better, he's happy to play along.
Seeing that Kōyū was faking his anger, Judy laughed too.
She didn't hide her joking intentions and readily admitted it:
"I knew I couldn't hide it from you, Kyouyu."
"However, the way you hurriedly rejected me just now was actually quite cute!"
She probably wanted to show that what she said was true.
As she spoke, Judy smiled and reached out to gently pinch Kōyū's cheek.
In the past, his cheeks were a bit rough, but at most soft.
But now, his cheeks are smooth, tender, and soft.
The feel is fantastic.
After pinching it a few times, Judy suddenly became a little addicted.
So she pinched it a few more times.
It's like petting a cat. You might only want to pet it a few times, but once you start, you can't stop.
The cat has little power to resist, and it even enjoys it.
But Kōyū is different from cats.
Seeing that Judy seemed unable to stop squeezing, he stopped her immediately.
After pushing her hand away, Guangyou moved a little further to the side.
He coughed lightly, clenched his fist, and said:
"Ms. Judy, please pay attention."
"I have a girlfriend."
He does have a girlfriend, and they have a very good relationship.
But at this point, the main purpose of this sentence is to liven up the atmosphere.
Of course, there were also reasons to make Judy pay attention.
Upon hearing this, Judy smiled slightly and uttered a remark tinged with envy:
"I really envy that girl."
This statement could be easily misunderstood, as if it were saying that Kousuke didn't choose her and chose Ai instead.
Before Kōyū could even remind her, Judy realized this as well.
She explained it to Guangyou first:
"I did not mean that."
"I envy that girl because she has someone who likes her so much."
As she spoke, she looked at Guangyou and said to him with a smile:
"Kuangyou, do you know?"
"When they talked about that girl..."
"Although you didn't talk about her, you just mentioned that she exists."
"Even so, I can tell that you really like that girl."
"Is that so?"
"Looks like I'm not very good at controlling my facial expressions."
After saying this in that tone, Kōyū nodded to Judy.
He could almost see Ai telling him to "go home early" that morning, and a smile naturally crept onto his face.
Then I heard him say:
"yes."
"I really like her."
There were no embellishments or metaphors, just a simple "I like it very much".
"That's wonderful," Judy exclaimed from the bottom of her heart.
Even during the time she was with Shuichi Akai, she never saw Shuichi Akai have the same expression as Mitsuyu at this moment.
However, he is not good at expressing his feelings.
“You’ll run into that person someday, Ms. Judy,” Kōyū said to Judy again.
"I hope so."
She stretched on the sofa and said in a casual tone:
"Actually, I feel quite comfortable being alone."
Without responding, Kwang-woo simply said:
"It depends on the individual."
"Some people do prefer being alone, feeling that life with someone is too troublesome, and that life alone is more free and easy."
"In any case, Ms. Judy, you should try to shift your focus as soon as possible."
He wanted to say he was giving up on the relationship, but felt that would be too direct.
So they changed their approach.
But the meaning is the same.
If she doesn't give up, Judy will only end up hurting herself.
"Mm." Judy nodded, a relieved smile spreading across her face as she made up her mind.
She remembered the mission objective and said again:
"Now I'll shift my focus to the task."
"Once the mission is over, I might consider going on a trip."
Seeing Judy's reaction, Kōyū nodded and said:
"That's fine then."
Now that the important business had been discussed, he should have simply said goodbye and left.
But Ai is still shopping with Akemi, so going back won't help.
We might as well solve the lunch problem here.
Also, have Judy contact the FBI and Shuichi Akai.
If possible, I'll arrange things for Shuichi Akai and Akemi this afternoon.
Thinking about their meeting, Kwangyu frowned slightly, thinking:
"but..."
