82 A Tes (1/2)

From now on Yoona was going to be on full-alert to have that stinking question in her brain answered.

Not going to lie, she was nervous for the gala. Not just because the Moon siblings were going to be there [though that terrified her too], but because of her relations.h.i.+p with Minhyun. She had to plan the gala night very carefully.

So this was her strategy. First, find out if Minhyun truly liked her. Then after finding this fact out, determine if her feelings for him were reciprocated or not. Depending on what her heart's answer was, she would either ask him the question during the gala or make up a completely different one.

The reason to why she was so elaborate was because this was the first time Yoona had ever experienced something like this. After all, her dating experiences were very limited. Sure, she had admirers and was. .h.i.t on by many different men, but they did not hold the same significance as Minhyun did. Also, Jaemin made it outright obvious that he was interested in her and at that time, she was not interested in him. Therefore, she did not have to ponder about this topic.

Yoona nodded her head. Good plan.

Minhyun, who had been watching Yoona beside of her, leaned forward. His head was slightly c.o.c.ked, trying to a.n.a.lyze the girl.

Suddenly, he leaned in closed to her ear, his hot breath fanning against her skin. ”What are you thinking about?”

”Holy s.h.i.+t!” Yoona jumped up, before scrambling to regain herself. With her back against the sofa, she quickly turned her head to face him. ”You scared me!”

Her skin tingled from the closeness.

He let out a chuckle while shaking his head. ”If you are this easy to scare, then how are you going to fare against the Moon siblings? When you are thinking, you don't pay attention to your surroundings at all. You are too vulnerable.”

Dear lord, at that time, he was too close. No wonder she was so suspicious of him.

Was this a sign? Did the proximity mean something or was he just fooling around with her? If she was correct, if a guy liked you, he would initiate contact like this right?

She stuck out her tongue. ”I'm different at school okay.” Her hands wrapped around her stomach. ”Besides, i'm too hungry right now to speak. That is why I was so blanked out. When are we eating?”

What she was saying wasn't completely false. Her stomach had been rumbling quite a bit. If more time pa.s.sed by, she knew that the sounds wouldn't be so tamed anymore.

Minhyun shook his head. This girl. She was so weird.

”The food is coming at six. Be patient.”

For dinner, instead of going out, Minhyun planned on ordering food from the chef downstairs. Although they rarely did last minute dishes, since Minhyun had the authority, he was allowed to get a high-cla.s.s full course meal without notice.

From past intel, he was able to garner information about what Yoona's favorite foods were. He was very surprised to see she had a diverse palette for delicacies all over the world. After obtaining this knowledge, he negotiated with the chefs to find the best course for her.

Yoona glanced over at the clock. There was still thirty minutes left.

She sent him a pout. ”Then don't complain about my growling stomach okay?”

”Okay.”

Yoona let out a sigh of relief, happy that her lie pa.s.sed through. She really didn't need him to know about the battle going on in her mind about him.

Just like when they were younger, her stomach was the same, roaring like a lion.
