Lights Don't Go Out in the Annex - Chapter 30
CHAPTER 30
It throbbed underneath, as if his thick, massive p*nis were still embedded inside her, and even though she knew it couldn’t be, Leeseo felt an uncomfortable sensation and tightly closed her legs. She could still feel the force of the Taegyeom’s grip on her thighs, forcing them wide apart, hovering over her skin.
The flick of his tongue as it licked and lapped at her cl*t. The heavy weight of his p*nis sliding in and out of her slackened opening. Each time the hot, blunt gl*ns slapped deep into her inner walls, Leeseo’s stomach rumbled and her fitful juices spurted.
Unconsciously, Leeseo placed her palm on her lower abdomen and stared blankly into the air. He was truly deep within her. The moment Kwon Taegyeom, who had always been so bored and free, sucked on her br*asts with a relentless gaze and slammed into her so deeply that she was scared to get out.
She still couldn’t believe that his p*nis, as thick and large as her forearm, was sliding in and out of her. The throbbing pain subtly spreading over her swollen l*bia was proof of last night’s intense memory.
Leeseo now understood the meaning of the phrase “a man and a woman mixing their bodies.” The strange sensation of her first s*xual experience she had never felt before was shocking and bewildering, but that was all.
Even if she had happened to mix her body with Kwon Taegyeom, Leeseo’s world would not change. A one-night stand remained just that. Getting entangled with a strange and dangerous man living in a completely different world from her own would be troublesome. The dizzying experience that was too difficult to handle was enough for one night.
Leeseo finished her brief reflection on her first s*xual experience and slowly got up, feeling the lingering soreness in her lower body.
“Ahh…”
She silently cursed Taegyeom in her mind as she took slow steps toward the bathroom. She pushed the thoughts out of her head, thinking of all the things she could do to fill her unusually early waking hours.
Soon, in the cramped bathroom, the sound of water hitting the tiled floor echoed.

It had been a while since she had done a thorough cleaning. The space, small enough to take in at a glance, seemed to multiply itself as she cleaned and dusted.
After finishing the cleaning, she put a new summer sheet on the bed. Carrying the used blanket, she went to the communal laundry room in the staff quarters to put it in the large washing machine, when she noticed that the scorching sun that had been high in the sky had begun to cooled down.
There wasn’t enough space in her room for a washing machine, so she had to make the trip to the communal laundry room. It didn’t bother her much, as she had used coin-operated machines in the underground laundry room of her previous dormitory before taking her leave of absence.
Leeseo removed the blanket from the washing machine and transferred it to the dryer. Afterward, she left the laundry room and sat down at the kitchen table with a cup of strongly brewed coffee. For a moment, a tingling sensation surged through her body, and her waist involuntarily tightened.
“Ah…”
Leeseo bit her lip while furrowing her brow. Nonetheless, she felt that she had done well to keep her body busy all day.
Perhaps it was because she had used her muscles that hadn’t been used in a while so early in the morning that her entire body felt like it was screaming in pain. She had stretched her body in between cleaning, which helped ease the discomfort, except for the persistent ache in her lower body.
With a short sigh, she pulled her coffee cup closer. The whitish steam rose from the cup and dispersed into a fine mist. She took a sip of the coffee, letting the warmth fill her mouth, and then she turned on her phone.
Opening the search bar of the portal site, Leeseo recalled the business card she had received from Yoo Jin Woo yesterday and pondered.
Yoo Jin Woo, CEO of SH Holdings.
Yoo Jin Woo, Taegyeom’s friend. Why would he be meeting with Gyucheol?
‘If you have any questions, ask Taegyeom. Whether he’ll answer or not depends on his mood though.’
And what kind of relationship does Kwon Taegyeom have with that man?
It wasn’t easy to guess. Even if she asked, Taegyeom wouldn’t be the type to kindly provide a straightforward answer.
‘What do you want with Yoo Jin Woo?’
‘Why am I getting so annoyed?’
‘Don’t go around talking to just anyone. Everyone here is just a flirt’
When she had asked Taegyeom about Yoo Jinwoo last night, she couldn’t get a proper explanation, as usual. He had just muttered strange things.
Leeseo searched for ‘SH Holdings Yoo Jin Woo’ on the portal site and scrolled through the search results. Following articles about SH Holdings, she found herself connected to a foreign portal site.
SH Holdings, an American investment firm founded by two young men who met in college, was headquartered in Manhattan, New York. Although it had only been established for about ten years, the company had achieved remarkable success in every area it ventured into.
SH Holdings rapidly expanded its business, dominating the market like a monster devouring its prey. Unlike other founders known for their engineering backgrounds, Yoo Jin Woo, the CEO, who majored in business administration, seemed to be actively involved in top management.
Looking at Yoo Jin Woo’s presentable picture in Time magazine, Leeseo felt strange. He seemed like a completely different person from the one she had seen.
From his drunken, wobbly gait, to his sneering, slurred speech, to his lighthearted gaze, he didn’t seem like a man with a single serious bone in his body. Leaving aside his promiscuous tastes, which included a penchant for wild s*x in stairwells.
The Yoo Jin Woo she knew left an impression that didn’t seem trustworthy as the young CEO of an investment company. In contrast to the man in the photo that was neatly dressed in a suit, gazing at the camera with a sharp look.
For some reason, it felt as if she had glimpsed into someone’s double life. Leeseo closed the internet window with the article. Although there were many articles and information about SH Holdings on the portal site, there was no valuable information that would help her understand the situation.
Getting up from the table, she poured the cold coffee into the sink. She washed the cup and put it away, then headed to the laundry room to retrieve the drying laundry. She packed the freshly dried blanket into a cloth bag and headed out of the building.
As she walked back to her room, her phone vibrated in her pocket. Her face tensed when she checked the caller ID. The caller was someone she hadn’t expected.
“Hello?”
– Leeseo, it’s me, Minhu.
Minhu’s voice came through the phone.
– I heard from some friends that you came near the school yesterday, so I was curious about how you’re doing.
True to his reputation as a lively and gossipy person, he was quick with news even after graduating from university. Minhu, from the same department, was a year older than Leeseo and had already graduated from school earlier this year.
Throughout his undergraduate years, he was known as the son of a wealthy family. He had reportedly acquired a large pharmacy in front of the university hospital. Leeseo had heard about it from her drunken friends that told her that he was different from other sons of rich families.
When she was in school, he found her a high-paying part-time tutoring job. He had claimed that he was looking for someone to fill in for him due to unavoidable circumstances, but Leeseo only found out much later that he had never worked as a tutor in his life. He was actually the third son of a congressman who had grown up like a greenhouse plant, never having had a part-time job.
“Yes, I came near the school suddenly because I had something to do. How are you, senior?”
– I’m always the same. I heard that you came to school suddenly, so I couldn’t help but be curious. It’s a bit sudden, but would it be okay if I came over to your place for a moment?
“Ah… right now?”
– Yeah, I was really worried since you suddenly took a leave from school and I couldn’t get a hold of you. The others don’t know either.
There was a deep worry in his voice. Since she had realized that Minhu’s feelings toward her were mixed with more than just a senior-junior relationship, she had felt a bit awkward. But she knew that he was a person with a kind heart.
She had abruptly cut off contact with him and had been hiding since taking a leave from school. It might seem petty on her part, but Minhu, unlike her friends who had warmly welcomed her and pretended as if nothing had happened, was more careful when he asked.
– Are you still living there? I came back to my hometown now.
Minhu was the only person who knew that Leeseo lived in the GK Group’s mansion. Since going to university, she had almost completely avoided the mansion, but one day during the vacation, she had encountered Minhu on her way out of the mansion after visiting her father. Coincidentally, Minhu’s family also had one of the large mansions in this upscale neighborhood.
GK Group’s mansion was well-known in this neighborhood. Despite the splendid residential area, it was difficult to find someone who didn’t know that this mansion, with the largest and tallest walls, was owned by the GK Group.
She had always been reserved about her family affairs, but she didn’t want Minhu to get the wrong idea. Leeseo had explained to him reasonably that her father worked as a resident employee in the mansion.
Minhu was quickly convinced and didn’t ask for more details. He hadn’t teased her or tried to pry into her secrets, but he kept his mouth shut the whole time.
– There’s a cafe down the street, why don’t we meet there?
“Oh, but I don’t know if I’m available right now…….”
Sensing her hesitation, Minhu spoke urgently.
– Or would a convenience store be okay? Just show your face to let me know if you’re doing well. Huh? Leeseo?
Leeseo checked her phone’s clock and reluctantly replied.
“Alright. Let’s meet at the convenience store then.”
