52 A Grand Entrance (1/2)
The next day, Yoona found herself in cla.s.s. Currently, she was in economics, the topic revolving around depth a.n.a.lysis of real life economic issues. Since this subject was one that came easier to her, she was able to understand all the concepts taught during the lesson.
Plus, as the professor was great at teaching, everyone was able to understand the subject easier. This was why Monday's particular economics cla.s.s had the fullest lecture hall out of all the other cla.s.ses at her university.
However, there was one face that was nowhere to be seen.
Just like she expected, Jaeun had decided to skip cla.s.s. With rashes and imperfections on her face, Yoona knew that there was no way Jaeun would let anyone see her in public. She cared about her image too much.
Yoona giggled. Although her little 'revenge' wasn't very exciting, it still made her feel great. Attacking someone at that level was beyond her comfort zone, but seeing the repercussions made her feel kinda proud. If you mess with Yoona and her friends, you were in for a treat.
Plus, without Jaeun for the week, she would be able to attend school comfortably. There would be no troubles to arise for the next five days. Or so she hoped anyways. There was the off-chance that perhaps, Jaeun could send someone else to do her bidding but Yoona doubted that this would be the case. After all, this time, she had Minhyun protecting her back.
It was a fact MH was more powerful than the Moon group.
Despite her current odd relations.h.i.+p with Minhyun, the man offered her more protection than she needed. From what she could see, his threat was more than enough to make Jaeun back down for a while. She looked frightened when Minhyun sent her that harsh look back at the restaurant.
Today was a great day.
An interesting thing Yoona noticed about Jaeun's absence was that the students were acting different. Since the tyrant wasn't in the room, most students didn't move away when she came near. Although none of them talked to her, not even asking if she was okay, they didn't treat her like plague like last time. That was all that mattered.
In the end, she had friends who had her back. When it came to school, all she needed to do was study and get her degree. All other purpose of university had dissipated.
After the lecture, Yoona packed up her things and began to walk down the stairs to exit. She had to get out quickly to keep the chosen time to meet Minhyun. While making her way to the entrance, she checked her phone to see if Minhyun had texted her.
Sure enough, he did. The text said that he was in the parking lot, waiting for her arrival.
There wasn't much information about his whereabouts or how to identify him. All he said was that she wouldn't be able to miss him. For the car he brought was quite the looker.
From past experiences with Jaemin, standing out wasn't Yoona's favorite thing to do. She felt uncomfortable when Jaemin brought his colorful cars for she preferred staying low. Flaunting wealth that she did not have, made her feel weird on the inside. However, this time, she was actually fine with getting into the fancy car with Minhyun. In fact, she preferred if the car was as flashy as possible.
Although Jaeun got her rashes, Jaemin suffered no repercussions. He was living his life quietly without her. By manipulating and tricking her to fall in love with him, he also did as much bad as Jaeun. He was her first love and the first boy she gave her all too. The pain of seeing him act like she was nothing was almost unbearable.
Therefore, as a little payback, she wanted to show that she was able to live happily without him. By going into Minhyun's car, she would be able to show that he wasn't the only wealthy person in her life but that could do much better than him.
Jaemin Moon cared about superficial aspects such as money and looks. Minhyun was someone who won over him in both aspects.
Although she wasn't sure if he would be there at the scene, she knew he would hear about it through gossip sooner or later.
However, there was a good chance he'd see since his cla.s.s ended near the same time and his building was right beside the entrance. On many days, they would meet together after her cla.s.s to hang out. She hoped that he would be able to see the scene, and to see what type of expression he would make on his face.
She figured this all out during her ride this morning to university.
The walk to the entrance usually took around ten minutes as her university campus was quite large. She trudged her way past the other students. Trees, buildings, and small fields, surrounded her as she walked down the cemented path. Usually, she took the time to observe her surroundings but today she wanted to get to Minhyun as quick as possible. He was already there.
Just then, a group of giddily girls ran towards her destination.
”Let's go! We're going to miss him if we're late.”
”I've heard father talk all about him. He's someone I would totally want as a suitor.”
”I can't believe Chae Minhyun is here.”
Recognizing the name of her childhood friend, she quickly whipped her head to focus on owner of those voices.
From what she can tell, the girls were wearing very fas.h.i.+onable outfits and were part of the high cla.s.s part of the student body. After seeing their physical traits, she could tell that they would be the type of people who would know who Minhyun was. Everyone in the rich circle did.
Although she knew that Minhyun made a name for himself, she was still not used to people treating him almost like a celebrity. Hearing them say his name and rus.h.i.+ng to see his face, made Yoona see the difference between them further.
She looked down at her wrist watch. Right now, it was around four two. There was two minutes to go.
She quickly scurried her way down. When she reached the parking lot, she saw a scene that she did not expect.
