Just as she was struggling to compose herself, Ji-Won unexpectedly turned his head to look towards the building. His eyes naturally fell on the window and his gaze locked with Su-Jin's.

Despite not being able to see her expression very well, Ji-Won still recognized her through the glass. He paused in his movements, staring at her figure for a moment longer.

Then, Seo-Jun called out to him and Ji-Won turned his back to the window.

It had been a brief moment, but it was enough to cause a spectacular change in Su-Jin's expression.

At the sight of him looking back at her, Su-Jin's face unwittingly broke into a small smile. Now, even more so than before, she thought Ji-Won appeared to be very different.

What was truly astonishing, though, was the fact that she quite enjoyed seeing this new side of him. She couldn't find anything displeasing in the way his hair fluttered in the wind, or how the sun rays seemed to give the black of his hair a certain brightness, like the illuminated night sky.

Moreover, she couldn't deny just how good his usual pale face looked at that moment, when it was tinged with bright pink and suffused with the brightness of excitement.

At the same time, Su-Jin couldn't overlook the attractiveness of the man's tall and lean body. Every movement Ji-Won made hinted at his toned, strong muscles.

Instantly, images of Ji-Won wearing less clothes popped in front of her eyes, causing Su-Jin's wild fantasies to head in a very dangerous direction.

Just as Su-Jin was beginning to fear her own impure mind, a young and childish voice interrupted her reverie.

"Miss Park, do you happen to like Uncle Ji-Won?"

Su-Jin's heart thumped wildly in her chest as if she had been caught doing something wrong.

Blushing with a bright pink, Su-Jin looked around and saw a little girl standing next to her. The child was also gazing out the window, a smile curving her lips.

The little girl had most probably appeared beside her at some point in time, but since Su-Jin was too deep in her trance, she didn't notice.

Looking down at the little girl, Su-Jin remained silent for a moment. Then, she swiftly turned her head back towards the window.

"N-no, of course I don't. W-why would you t-think that?" Su-Jin spoke with a stutter.

"Because you were smiling brightly while looking at him." the little kid said in a matter-of-factly tone.

"But how did you know it was him I was looking at? There is also Uncle Seo-Jun there, and also Miss Yeon-Ah, as well as the other children."

After she finished speaking, Su-Jin bent down to reach the same height as the little girl and gently turned her around by the shoulders. The two were now face to face, staring at each other.

"I know, because Uncle Ji-Won is the handsomest one out there." The little girl replied, looking into Su-Jin's eyes with a child's innocence.

The answer made Su-Jin burst into giggles.

'This little girl sure has a keen eye when it comes to male beauty.' She thought to herself.

"Hm, is that so?" Su-Jin teased with a doting smile.

She thought the little girl adored her "Uncle Ji-Won" a tad bit too much and just wanted to sing his praises, as children often did towards the adults they liked.

Yet unexpectedly, the little girl simply smiled brightly and gestured for Su-Jin to follow her.

Despite being unable to understand the meaning behind the little girl's smile, Su-Jin was a bit intrigued by the child's mysterious attitude. Therefore, without saying a word, she quickly straightened up and followed the little girl to the door.

When they got outside the room, the little girl took Su-Jin's hand and guided her towards a small hallway that led to Director Cha's office.

Just when Su-Jin was about to ask where they were going, the little girl opened the office door with familiarity and stepped inside, pulling Su-Jin after her.

Bewildered, Su-Jin forgot to even ask what they were doing inside the Director's office, when the little girl suddenly stopped in front of a wall. The space was devoid of any furniture. Instead, the white surface of the wall was filled with pictures of all sizes.

"Look, that's Uncle Ji-Won when he was the same age as me." The little girl said excitedly as she pointed towards one of the largest pictures.

Su-Jin's eyes followed the little girl's finger and landed on a picture in a bamboo frame.

The image inside the frame indeed showed a young boy of around ten or eleven years old standing in the middle, framed by two adults. Even without being told, Su-Jin could safely guess their identities.

Based on the woman's long, beautiful black hair and ivory face, and the man's piercing pitch-black eyes and deep features, the two adults could only be Kang Ji-Won's parents.

The family of three was smiling widely at the camera, its members showing off their beautiful and elegant outfits. Judging by their stylish clothes and fancy background, they were clearly attending a high-class party.

Su-Jin stood rooted to the spot, gaping at the photograph of Ji-Won with his parents like she was looking at something extraordinary. Her lips were slightly parted and her eyes widened until they became saucers.

'Not just Director Kang, but all three of them look so beautiful. The power of genetics truly is a scary thing to behold.' she thought, smiling ruefully to herself.

Among the three people in the photograph, the woman was especially gorgeous. Her midnight blue dress spotted with silver dots made her look like a mesmerizing fairy. Ji-Won's mother looked truly stunning, just like a fabulous apparition whose body was made of the night sky and adorned with stars.

Staring at her, Su-Jin finally understood where Ji-Won had taken his remarkable appearance from.

Meanwhile, the man, as in Ji-Won's father, was smiling at the camera, appearing both dashing and manly. The curve of his lips made him look very charismatic and his eyes seemed to pierce through the surface of the picture like two sharp needles.

Just like Ji-Won's eyes, his father's also resembled two black holes that possessed the ability to suck one's soul into their depths and never let go.

Su-Jin slowly moved her eyes away from the two adults and finally settled them on the little boy.
