Chapter 135 - Ruin the fun [1] (1/2)
Faced with Han Sungmin, Moon Jiwoo was unable to see a way out of it. Having a confrontation was something she desperately wanted to avoid. Looking back to it, there are lots of people she would rather avoid these days.
Maybe she shouldn't let the boredom get the best of her and make her come out. After all, if it wasn't for the fact that she was unable to stay inside her room quietly, she would not have to meet face to face with Han Sungmin at this moment.
After the man had reprimanded her for absolutely no reason last time around, she had no reason to have a good impression on him. Moreover, everytime, the man looked at her as if she was a thorn by Oh Sookyung's side.
”What are you shamelessly doing at here until now!? It's because of you that Oh Sookyung has been doing crazy things recently! I advise you to stop pouring such ideas inside his mind and leave,” he voiced out, ”If you are not obedient, I can't ȧssure you that I wouldn't be crossing the line.”
Moon Jiwoo was about to avoid the man and silently leave, but now, hearing those words, there was no she was able to do something like that.
'Shameless? Old Man, it's your son who is desperate to keep at here. It's not like I wanted to stay at here in the first place.'
”No,” Moon Jiwoo answered, ”Old Man, do whatever you want, but I am not getting away from here. You are really cowardly though. Just because you are unable to get Sookyung to remove me from here, you are coming and attacking me— the weaker one.
However, one thing I am telling you that is as long as Sookyung doesn't tell me to leave this palace, I am not doing so. Instead of me being the shameless, aren't you the one being so?”
Moon Jiwoo raised one of her eyebrows.
Although the man before her was quite intimidating, Jiwoo did not understand where her all the courage had come from. Maybe it was because of how she was too idiotic to be scared of him.
”How dare you use that tone on me? Are you actually aware of who I am?” he asked.
”Can't you stop using such a cliche line? Where do you think you are at? Acting at some kind of movie or something?
About whatever is going on between Sookyung and me, why are you coming to me about it? Just go to Sookyung if you have the courage, Old Man, and quit bothering me! I don't know why everyone has to approach me!”
”It's your fault for seducing my son, You Ill-mannered Brat! I don't know what methods you have used, but don't you have any shame for turning him against his fated one? How dare you try to create problems between both of them?” he questioned.
”Don't tell me that you are blaming me for being too beautiful and charming. Look, I am used to guys fall head over heels for me, and unfortunately, I am unable to do something about it. Seeing how attractive I am, it's no surprise actually.
What am I supposed to do if Oh Sookyung is this crazy about me? He will wreck havoc if I go away from here. That's why, it is very crucial for me to be at here.
Please give it a proper thought, Old Man, and you will find everything I am saying valid as well,” Moon Jiwoo voiced out calmly— proud of herself for being able to come up with such a comeback.
However, before she was able to congratulate herself properly, a sharp pain went through her cheek, and her eyes widened while she found a cut forming at the corner of her lips. Her face showed how shocked she was from his sudden slap.
Raising her hand, she touched her cheeks as she watched the middle-aged man before her. Anger could easily be differentiated from his features while he had his hand raised.
”Did you just slap me? How dare you? What gives you the—”
Before Moon Jiwoo was able to continue further, a gasp escaped from her mouth when she noticed how Han Sungmin flew backward due to sudden movement of the wind. His back collided against the wall while a loud sound was created due to the contact.
