VIRAL LOVE Chapter 18 - BUSTED Mo-yeon sits next to Si-jin while Myeong-joo gets the rest of the team on a conference call. Si-jin doesn't even bother asking how everyone knew about them and how Myeong-joo is suddenly so chummy with Mo-yeon's friends. He is too upset about his father's acts, first giving an interview like that and then reaching out to personally talk to Mo-yeon? One of that is already unforgivable to him, but two... He doesn't realize he's clenching his fist until Mo-yeon gently pries his fingers open before she softly massages the deep dents his fingers had made on his palm. He takes a deep breath as he watches her dainty fingers running across his palm in a soothing motion, and feels himself beginning to relax a little. "You smell like sweat. And grass."

"Haish, can you guys stop trying to eat each other's face for a second! We have a meeting right now!" Both lovers immediately stop and quickly step away from each other, their faces red in mortification. Si-jin begins to stutter as he sees Sunbae Song's serious face on the screen of Myeong-joo's laptop. "S-sir, I'm sorry, I didnt realize you are here." Sunbae Song snorts. "Oh, if I wasnt here there's no problem then?" "Sunbae!" Mo-yeon hisses as Si-jin starts to sweat.
