Chapter 8.4

Sunghee couldn’t believe what Heesu was suggesting. Sunghee exclaimed, 

“Hey! I only slept with the sex king because I was afraid he was going to spread rumors about how we had a one night stand. He blackmailed me into sleeping with him.”

“What? He threatened you? Then the answer should be too easy!”

When Heesu yelled angrily, Sunghee shook her head and explained hurriedly, 

“No, I don’t think he was actually threatening me. At the time, I was so shocked and confused that I did what he asked, but when I think about it now… Knowing what I know about him… I doubt he would’ve forced me if I refused him. I think he would’ve pretend he was joking and let me go. He’s actually really nice. He definitely isn’t the type to threaten anyone. He’s funny and kind.”

Staring at Sunghee quietly, Heesu replied, 

“It sounds like you already made your decision, so why are you asking for advice from me? You should’ve just told me you needed someone who would listen to you instead.”

Sunghee pushed back her hair roughly and said in annoyance, 

“I’m serious when I say I don’t know what to do. You dated so many men, and in the end, you managed to marry the CEO of your company. You must’ve had a reason why you picked your husband. That’s what I want to know. Is sex that important in a marriage? Wouldn’t money be even more important? I mean, I’ve heard that most couples lose their sex drive by mid 30’s nowadays. So when I turn 50 or 60, it’s unlikely I’ll have any sex at all. So wouldn’t money be much more important in the long run?”

“But you said the sex king works in your office. So he has a decent job, right?”

“Yeah, but his work isn’t that great, and there is no way of knowing when any of us will be fired in this economy,” replied Sunghee.

But Sunghee tried to remember and be objective about Sejin as an employee. Actually, she realized that perhaps she was being unfair about him. When they were busy, Sejin completed much more work than she did. No one seemed to pay attention to him, but Sejin sometimes even brought work home to finish without ever complaining about it. He did seem a little annoyed, but he still got everything done. 

But that’s how good employees ended up being abused and fired in the end. It was even worse because Sejin didn’t get along with his coworkers. With a loud groan, Sunghee lowered her head and murmured, 

“He really isn’t a bad guy, so I just don’t know what to do.”

“Well, I can’t give you any advice either.”

Heesu poured herself another glass of wine and replied. Sunghee laid down on the sofa and grumbled, 

“But I was counting on you to tell me what to do!”

“Even I don’t know everything about dating. But there is one thing I do want to tell you, Sunghee.”

“What is it?”

Sunghee rolled over on her stomach and looked up at Heesu, who replied quietly, 

“About sex life… You should know that it’s not as unimportant as you think, Sunghee. The quality of your life can really diminish without good sex.”

Heesu looked tired as she smiled and continued, 

“You don’t have to be incredibly rich to become happy. All you need is just enough so that the two of you can live comfortably. A rich husband? You just want that so you can brag to other people, right? You think a good husband material is based on how much money he has, but I don’t agree with that. If you find someone you can have fun with… Someone you can talk to freely… I think that’s what the definition of a good husband is. If you marry someone who you can’t even share your thoughts and troubles… That’s not a good life to live.”

Staring at Heesu for a long time, Sunghee asked carefully, 

“Umm, Heesu, is this about you…?”

“Oh, my, I think I talked too much.”

Heesu quickly changed the subject as she sipped her wine. But Sunghee could still see sadness in her friend’s eyes. Her friend married someone so rich, yet was she not happy? Sunghee knew that money couldn’t buy happiness, but she also knew that no one could become happy if they had no money. So could sex make up for it?

Feeling even more confused, Sunghee frowned. When Heesu saw this, she smiled quietly. After a short contemplation, Heesu finally admitted her situation.

“To be honest… My life isn’t that great. I knew the truth on our wedding night. You know how I have a lot of experience with men, right? And with my previous boyfriends, I used to be able to experiment and talk about the things I liked. I thought… I thought it would be the same with my husband. But you know, my husband only believes in the old fashioned standard sex in the bed. It might be partly because he’s a bit older than me, but it’s also because he’s very old fashioned to begin with. At first, it was fine, but you know how it could get boring after a while, right? Then we should be looking for different ways to improve our relationship, but he… He just gave up on having sex with me altogether. That was his solution to our problem. It has been a long time since I had sex with my husband. Of course, he sleeps around with his secretary when he goes on a business trip, while I… I just stay behind and spend his money.”
