Chapter 70 - Which era [1] (1/2)

Seeing the familiar masked man stand before her, Moon Jiwoo felt a rush of anger, and memories began to flood inside her mind. Unable to control herself, she strode towards the man.

Extending her hand towards his shirt's collar, she gripped on to it tightly and vocalized, ”Ah! You bastard! It's really good to see you again. Although I could not meet that annoying—”

Before Moon Jiwoo was able to continue further, Minnie spoke out, ”Stop, Jiwoo, stop. You fool, did you forget that you are in someone else's body now?”

The realization dawned upon her after Jiwoo heard those words, and releasing her grip on the man's collar, she took a couple of steps back.

The man that stood before her— Han Minhyun— was someone she had gotten married to in her last life, and thinking of the treatment the man made her go through was enough to make her blood boil.

Recalling about the countless number of times he had insulted her, she had the urge to strike the man.

However, the risk was not worth it. Therefore, taking in a deep breath, she tried to hold in her anger although her eyes were being quite expressive of what she currently felt.

Moon Jiwoo coughed and said, ”It seems that I am still very much drunk and confused you to be something else.”

With that, Moon Jiwoo took a couple of steps backward, and that's when, she felt a sharp pain permeated through the back of her head.

Turning her head, she realized that Hyungwon had hit the back of her head, and glaring at him, she exclaimed, ”What was that for!?”

”Shin Daerin, you should be stopped from getting drunk. Do you know what kind of offense you have just made?” Hyungwon vocalised.

Clenching her hand into a tight fist, Jiwoo arrogantly spoke out, ”At least I stopped myself before I was able to punch him. What's wrong with grabbing his shirt's collar?”

”You little—”

Before Hyungwon was able to continue further, Minhyun said, ”Let's leave it at that, Hyungwon-ssi, and discuss about the important matters. I can not be here for a long time. You must be Miss Shin Daerin, Sookyung's protector.”

”You can say that,” Jiwoo replied, letting out a yawn.

After that, she folded her arms across her ċhėst and curtly questioned, ”What are you here for?”

”Shin Daerin, do you know who you are speaking to? Your rudeness—”

Turning to face Hyungwon, Jiwoo said, ”I believe he can speak for himself. Is it your habit to interfere into everything?”

Oh Sookyung let out a chuckle, and extending his hand towards her, he gripped on to his wrist. Pulling her wrist closer to her, he wrapped his hand around her shoulder and wore a small smile on his face.

”Don't mind her behaviour, Mr. Han. This is what she is usually like. It would be merely a wishful thinking to expect behaviour from him,” Sookyung expressed.

”Wishful thinking? Yah! I have manners as well. It's just that in front of the people I dislike, I can't hold it in,” Jiwoo vocalised, stepping on Sookyung's foot with all of her strength.

A wince escaped from Sookyung's mouth as he jumped backwards and removed his hand from around her shoulders.

”What was that for? I was just trying to help you out of that situation,” Sookyung vocalised.

”Heol! Help me!? How much of a fool do you take me to be? You were merely trying to insult me, You Damned Thief!” Jiwoo expressed.

”Since you have asked about it, I take you to be a complete fool, Shin Daerin. I am curious about one thing. Have you ever shown signs of being smart?” Sookyung stated, ”The fact that you have survived until now feels like truly a miracle to me. Ouch!”

Moon Jiwoo kicked on his knees, and the man let out a cry. Kneeling down slightly, he gripped on to his knee.

”Shut up, You thief! Regardless of how much of a fool I am, at least it is better than a weakling like you. Without someone having to protect you, you are completely dead meat,” she voiced out, ”You weakling!”
