As soon as Yeongsoo settled back in the office, there was a slight knock on the door, after that it opened and a parade of employees began trickling in, each one carrying trays of food, drinks, and small gifts.
One by one, they bowed deeply and offered their respect, all with the same overly polite greeting: "Welcome, Madam!."
Haeun's eyes widened with each new person, his face turning a deeper shade of pink every time they addressed him as Madam. He shot a quick, helpless glance at Yeongsoo, who was barely containing his laughter at the situation.
"Thank you, but you don't have to—" Haeun started to say, but he was cut off by yet another employee, who gracefully placed a tray of fruit in front of him.
"Madam, please enjoy this seasonal selection of the finest fruits. Would you prefer the tea or the cold drink next?" the employee asked with a serious expression, as if this were the most important decision of the day.
