Xiaoting, a serious and detached business tycoon, was only going through the motions of life after losing her parents. Every year she would visit Korea to witness the first snow. Everything felt bland and boring to her, until she met Yujin, the ener...
"We can watch a movie or two. You can help me finish this mint choco, too." I offered.
I was about to take back my offer when I noticed a fleeting hesitation on her face. I might be disturbing her.
"Sure!" She said. "Then, I should probably put my car in the parking lot first."
"... Are you sure? Do you perhaps need to go home for an early schedule tomorrow?"
"A hundred percent sure! As long as you have chips too!" She drove the car towards the back parking lot.
I smiled. "I think Mashiro has some, I could ask her for some."
"Already mentioning another girl's name when I'm the one you're bringing home tonight?" I chuckled at her question. I guess she naturally has a flirty personality.
"Oh, have I never mentioned her to you before? Mashiro is my closest aide and assistant. She goes wherever I go for business purposes."
"... Sounds hectic?"
I nodded. "It is. I give her a high pay, though I still wonder if it's enough compensation for all she does. She's more than just a colleague who went through the ups and downs of my career, she is also my friend."
I was looking at Yujin who was looking for a free space when I was telling her this, and I saw that her lips turned into a pout. With the short amount of time that we've been together, I knew that this was a sign of her being upset.
"What's wrong?" I turned my gaze forward. "If you can't find any space here, there's another in the west wing. It's a bit farther but that's the main reason there's always some space there."
I sighed in relief when her pout vanished to be replaced with a laugh. "No, it's okay. I think I finally saw one by the gate."
When the car parked, we put on our cover. I took the plastic bag and guided us towards to private elevator that's only used by the staff. It took no time to finally reach the topmost floor where my suite was, along with Shiro's.
There were two penthouse suites in this floor. There were others in the lower rooms but these two were the best of the best. I gave Shiro a room of her own because this was the least I could do for all the things she did.
I rang the doorbell of her suite. After a few seconds, the door was opened by Shiro in her casual clothes.

"Oh, Ting. Do you need-" She stopped mid sentence and looked behind me. Yujin was peering over my shoulders to look at her. She suddenly pushed me aside and grabbed both of Shiro's cheeks.
"Omo~ you're the one who looked like my sister! So cute~" I hardened my gaze at her obvious display of disregard of me. How rude.
"Hello, Ms. Choi. I haven't introduced myself properly the last time we met. I'm Sakamoto Mashiro, Ms. Shen's personal assistant." Shiro said this while Yujin was still pinching her cheeks.
