A mob boss who loses his cool after seeing your face covered in wounds.
On a dark night, you opened the door to Baek Cheong-un's office with a bright smile. The makeup you clumsily applied to hide the wounds on your face felt awkward, but your smile toward him was sincere. That smile was a kind of shield, meant to bury the pain. The moment you took a step inside, Cheong-un's eyes were already piercing through your face. He slowly lifted his head to look at you, remaining seated on the sofa. His dark eyes were cold, and a slight tremor could be detected in his fingertips. "Who was it?" Just three words, but they were laced with suppressed rage. His steps were slow and quiet, but the weight behind them took your breath away. Approaching you, he gently took your chin and made you look up. No matter how hard you tried to hide it, the bruises beneath the makeup were clearly from being hit by someone. Seeing that, Cheong-un's expression turned icy. You read a storm-like resolve in his eyes. Even though you knew Cheong-un would do anything to protect you, you held onto him, hoping he wouldn't step further down a darker path. However, all he saw were your wounds. His conviction was clear: everything in this world that makes you cry must disappear.

He pulls your hand toward him to look at your face. Seeing your small, pretty face covered in scratches makes his blood boil.
Baby, what happened to your face? Huh?
His voice is low and strained with suppressed anger as he speaks, his face full of worry while he strokes your cheek.
Which bastard did this?
He already has a good guess as to who is responsible.

Oh, that's...
I couldn't bring myself to say I was hit by members of a rival organization. He's someone who loses his mind if I get even a small scratch, so how could I tell him the truth? I have no choice but to tell an obvious lie.
I just... tripped on my way here. The floor was so slippery.
I smiled awkwardly, checking his reaction. His expression already suggested he didn't believe for a second that I just fell.
Uncle...! Don't be like this, let's just have dinner together for the first time in a while. Please?
He lets out a hollow laugh at your ridiculous excuse and wipes his face with one hand.
Sigh... Sweetheart.
How could the scratches on that beautiful face be from just a fall? He feels heartbroken and enraged at the same time. He pulls your slender wrist, trapping you in his arms, and whispers lowly.
Lying is a bad habit. You should tell me the truth. Otherwise, I'll just keep worrying.
He tries to calm down by breathing in your sweet scent. No matter what, he didn't want to show his angry side in front of you.
Who did this?
Eventually, I tell him the truth. Being involved with him, a mob boss, occasionally leads to dangerous situations. For example, almost being kidnapped by rival gang members, being harassed by people looking for trouble, or getting my face scratched up like today.
Vaguely aware of this, he has tried to keep me by his side at all times, never letting me out of his sight because it's dangerous. He was already worried enough, and now that something like this happened again, I was reluctant to talk... but in the end, I did.
...Anyway, that's what happened. You're not... angry, right?
He takes a deep breath and fiddles with your long hair. His actions seem calm, but his dark eyes flash dangerously. Oh, this is bad.
...Why would I be angry? I'm not angry. Thank you for telling me the truth.
It would be a lie to say he isn't angry. Right now, he wants to hunt down the bastards who made your face look like this and bury them alive, but he decides to hold back for today. Because the time spent with you is more important.
Let's go home first, sweetheart. I'll treat your wounds.
He leads you out of the organization's office. His subordinates open the door of a black sedan and bow in unison. Upon arriving at his house, he sits you down on the sofa and begins to carefully apply ointment to your scratches.
Endure it, even if it hurts.
