"Jihoon-ssi, what is the relations.h.i.+p between Dohyun and Minhyun? Their relations.h.i.+p seems worse than the one between Junghyun and Minhyun," Soohyun voiced out as she laid on top of the ground.
Couple of bruises could be seen upon her faces and arms, which was due to the training, and as sweat dripped down her body, she stared at Oh Jihoon, who stood in front of Soohyun.
"There is a type of rivalry between Minhyun Hyung and Dohyun Hyung. It was more of Dohyun Hyung considering Minhyun Hyung a rival whilst Minhyun Hyung did not bother about it," Jihoon explained whilst sitting on the ground beside Soohyun.
He then continued, "Minhyun hyung excelled him in many fields, and now that Minhyun hyung found his fated one, he does not have much positive feelings towards Minhyun Hyung."
"Ah! So, Kim Dohyun is jealous of Minhyun?" Soohyun questioned whilst raising one of her eyebrows.
"Who is jealous of whom?" A voice asked.
Hearing his voice surprised Soohyun, and sitting up straight, Soohyun turned back. Seeing that Kim Dohyun was standing before, her eyes dilated. Han Minhyun warned her to not provoke him.
"Oh Jihoon is jealous of Minhyun," Soohyun lied, knowing very well that she could not tell him the truth. She was not a fool and well aware that she will be getting attacked if that happened.
"How dare you lie?" Kim Dohyun growled as he stepped towards Lee Soohyun.
His glare was enough to make Soohyun cower; Nonetheless, knowing that he considered Minhyun as a rival, he did not want to give him the satisfaction of seeing her be frightened by his presence.
Oh Jihoon stood up protectively in front of Soohyun, and as a stern expression sat on his face, Jihoon said, "Hyung wouldn"t let it easily pa.s.s if slight harm came to Moon Jiwoo-ssi. After all, she is Hyung"s fated one."
Whilst scoffing, Kim Dohyun turned his head to look towards Soohyun and said, "Doesn"t she look too fragile and weak to be his fated one?
Judging by how you are protecting her makes it seem as if it is really easy to break her. Don"t worry! I wouldn"t be hurting her; Just want to have a pleasant talk with her over some tea."
"I don"t like tea," Soohyun mumbled, hoping that he had heard her.
She most definitely did not like being mocked as weak by others. Nonetheless, as she did not consider herself to be foolish, she did not go up to him and give him a piece of mind.
"Jihoon-ssi, I am done resting. Since we have missed the training yesterday, doesn"t that mean we need to work extra hard today?" Soohyun said as she poked on Oh Jihoon"s shoulder.
Turning back to face Soohyun, Jihoon nodded and vocalised, "Jiwoo-ssi, just go to that side and practice some of the moves. I will be coming ober after discussing some matters with Kim Dohyun."
Although Soohyun was curious to know, she was well aware of the consequences, and she did not want to face Kim Dohyun much longer than it necessary.
As a grim expression settled on Oh Jihoon"s face, she said, "Sure, I will just go there. Then, have a pleasant time together."
Saying that Lee Soohyun turned her back on them, and as she started to walk away, Dohyun"s words caused her to halt in her steps.
"At first, I was slightly off mood by seeing how that Minhyun found his fated one, but seeing how she is such a weak woman and a coward, I am glad to be without a fated one," Dohyun vocalised.
Whilst clenching her hands tightly, Soohyun impulsively turned back, and as a smile sat on her face, she retorted, "Isn"t that because fate decided to have pity on you? After all, even without a weak fated one to drag you down, you don"t match up to Minhyun"s skills and is just jealous of him."
Soohyun"s eyes widened at her words, and she did not understand where she got the courage to do so. As her eyes fell on Dohyun"s glaring eyes, nervousness within Soohyun intensified.
Deciding that it was the best for her to leave at this moment, Soohyun immediately turned her back on him and hurriedly ran towards the other direction.
Being infuriated by the girl in front of him, Kim Dohyun raised his hand towards her to attack him when Oh Jihoon gripped his hand to stop him.
As a soft smile sat on Jihoon"s face, he said, "Dohyun Hyung, it wouldn"t be the smartest of the actions at this moment, and attacking a weak girl would not look good on your image."
Staring at Oh Jihoon, Dohyun scoffed and pulled his hand away from him. As mock showed upon Dohyun"s face, he said, "What are you now? Another one of that Han Minhyun"s lackeys?"
"I am here to train Jiwoo-ssi, and therefore, her safety is my responsibility," Jihoon vocalised.
Raising his hand, Dohyun placed his palm on Jihoon"s shoulder, and as he patted his shoulder, he stated, "Training? It is more like you currying favour towards Minhyun as much as you can. Tch! You"re just like that father of yours. Pathetic."
Oh Jihoon just wore a soft smile on his face the entire time as his eyes stared at the ground. No change of expression was seen upon his face as he absorbed in Dohyun"s words.
Ridicule could be seen within Dohyun"s eyes whilst they stared upon Oh Jihoon, and finding no fun in this anymore, he decided to walk away from there.
Turning his back on Jihoon, Dohyun walked away, and as he did so, Jihoon"s eyes were upon his back. As his hands were tightly clenched, he turned to walk towards the direction Soohyun went whilst many thoughts consumed his mind.
Seeing Oh Jihoon come towards her, Lee Soohyun rushed towards him, and as a worried expression sat upon her face, she asked, "Are you alright?"
She then added, "This is my second time seeing him yet I don"t want to see him again."
