As she was eating the dinner, Soohyun found herself raising her line of sight and staring at Kim Junghyun. Seeing him being in his original state was still very much new to her.
There was barely any cuteness to him, and as much as Soohyun wanted to strike up a conversation, she knew that it would be too humiliating to do so after she was the one who turned her back on him back then.
Just because Soohyun did not care about her pride at times does not mean that she like to have it wounded.
Turning her head to look towards Yejoon, she decided to distract her eyes from Kim Junghyun and questioned, "Did anything fun happen at the Underworld?"
Placing in the kimchi inside his mouth, Yejoon shook his head and vocalized, "I did not get to meet my admirers due to how busy it was today. There were lots of things that needed my attention."
Hw.a.n.g Yejoon let out a sigh.
"Aigoo! Judging from your expression, that seems hard," Soohyun stated.
"You bet it was. Those beauties were staring at me with those tearful eyes of theirs, but although I pitied them, I could not go to them because of work.
This still causes my heart to clench painfully. But now that you"re here and you"re a beauty, you don"t mind accompanying me, right?" Yejoon raised one of his eyebrows whilst using his puppy eyes on her.
Lee Soohyun let out a loud sigh, and leaning closer Yejoon, she whispered, "Yes, with soju on the side, this would be great, but your Hyung wouldn"t allow that. He would grip me by my—"
Before Lee Soohyun could continue, Minhyun put a piece of meat inside her mouth to shut her down, shocking her, and as she chewed on the delicious piece of meat, she turned to look towards Minhyun. One of her eyebrows was raised.
"Shut up, and eat quickly; You have training after dinner as well to make up for all the leisurely time you had while we were gone," Minhyun voiced out.
After swallowing down the piece of meat, Soohyun replied, "Yes, yes, I know that, Minhyun-ssi."
As Soohyun placed rice inside her mouth, Yejoon vocalised, "By the way, Jiwoo, how did Junghyun go back to his original state? Something tells me that you were behind it."
Those words from Yejoon took her by surprise, and choking on her food, she began to cough. Taking the gla.s.s from close to her plate, she drank it.
Although Lee Soohyun was shaken up by the question— as Minhyun had mentioned on no one could know about her current state and only Red Clan can enter the attic— she managed to pull out a smile towards Yejoon and said, "Heol! How is that even possible? You do realize that I am completely powerless."
After hearing Lee Soohyun"s words, Hwnag Yejoon nodded and voiced out, "That sounds reasonable enough. You can not possibly undo Hyung"s spell on your own, but how did it happen though?"
Looking towards Kim Junghyun, Yejoon asked, "How did you get back to your original state?"
How Soohyun pleadingly stared at him was not missed by Kim Junghyun, and he was well aware that she was doing this for him to hide the truth.
Even though he was not cognizant of the reason behind it, he decided to comply. Letting her down was not something he could bear to do.
"None of your business," Junghyun answered.
After listening to Junghyun"s words, a wide smile formed on Lee Soohyun"s face, which was not missed by him, and seeing that, he could feel his heart fluttering.
Immediately, he stared down at his meal.
"Oh Jihoon, train Jiwoo until five in the morning," Minhyun ordered.
After hearing those words of his, Soohyun raised her hand and began to count around how many hours that is.
Turning her head to stare towards Minhyun, Soohyun asked, "What about sleep then?"
Due to worry, she could not sleep during the time Han Minhyun was not present, and according to Soohyun, she had a huge amount of sleep she needed to catch up on.
Although her body was getting used to the lack of sleep, in Soohyun"s opinion, she still needed them. After all, currently, there could not be more than enough sleep for her.
"You can sleep after training," Minhyun vocalised.
"Breakfast then?" Soohyun raised one of her eyebrows.
A simple bowl of instant noodles was not enough to fill her entire stomach after that exhausting exercise schedule, and full meal was something she needed.
"I"ll have one prepared for you when you wake up," Minhyun voiced out, making Lee Soohyun"s eyes sparkle.
Maybe she would have mentioned about him in the beginning, and then, she could have gotten full breakfast when she woke up.
"Deal! You"re the best, Minhyun!" Soohyun wore a wide smile on her face.
"Aigoo! Jiwoo, you"re making me miss those girls of mine with your relations.h.i.+p with Minhyun. Can you stop?" Yejoon voiced out.
Looking towards Hw.a.n.g Yejoon, she stated, "Why don"t you bring them here then instead of complaining? I recall seeing you with one of them when I first met you."
Hearing those words from Soohyun made Hwnag Yejoon"s eyes widen, and pulling on an awkward smile, he questioned, "What are you talking about, Jiwoo? When did I bring a girl here?"
Glancing at Minhyun beside her, Soohyun had an idea on why Hw.a.n.g Yejoon was so shaken up; Han Minhyun must not like him bringing those girls along with him.
"Hw.a.n.g Yejoon, I believe we need to have a talk after this," Minhyun stated threateningly.
Noticing how Hw.a.n.g Yejoon shot her a glare, Lee Soohyun raised both of her hands and defended, "Hey! I did not do anything! You never said me to keep that a secret!"
"You still should have had an idea on it," Yejoon voiced out as Soohyun stared at him apologetically.
Hw.a.n.g Yejoon just sighed.
"Two idiots," Kim Junghyun mumbled, causing Yejoon and Soohyun to look at him.
"Ungrateful b.a.s.t.a.r.d," Lee Soohyun muttered under her breath, and she was well aware that Kim Junghyun was bound to hear it with his hearing capabilities.
Hw.a.n.g Yejoon pretended shocked and said, "Heol! This is the first time you have addressed Junghyun in this way."
Lee Soohyun sighed and said, "I was blind before, but my eyes have opened now."
Lee Soohyun had no idea on why she was doing this. This just seemed fun to her, and as she found Junghyun"s p.i.s.sed off side cute, she wanted to see more of it. Moreover, she went easy on him before because he seemed to be a kid, but it was a different matter now.
"Yah! Yah! What are you saying, You Ugly Old Lady!?" Kim Junghyun exclaimed.
Lee Soohyun just stuck her tongue out towards him.
