Chapter 133 - Eccentric (1/2)

Two minutes— That is how long the silence remained before Taehee burst out into fits of laughter. Hearing Taehee's laugh made Jinhee speechless.

Once again, she was tricked by Han Taehee.

After directing an intense glare towards Taehee, Jinhee crossed her arms over her chest and turned towards the other way in order look outside of the window.

She was wrong to think that she could hold a civil conversation with someone like Han Taehee. That girl was full of jokes!

Looking at Lee Jinhee, a melancholic expression crossed at Taehee's eyes.

'It seems like you're still not ready for it, my little squirrel.'

The grand mansion of the Han family succeeded in astonishing Jinhee. Everything around the mansion was arranged neatly, and the servants bowed politely as they saw Taehee walking inside.

Everything was carried out in an orderly manner, and none of the servants showed any signs of slacking off or laziness.

An air of elegance surrounded the mansion, and this put an invisible pressure upon Lee Jinhee, making her feel out of place.

Although both Han Taehee and her were from an affluent family, the difference in status between them was very much noticeable.

Taehee held her shoulder as both of them walked, and none of the servants dared to stare at them longer than necessary although they were curious about Jinhee.

They have not seen the girl with Han Taehee before and was surprised to be see being bought at the mansion for Han Taehee rarely bought anyone along with her.

Jinhee's attention was captivated by the garden around the mansion. Fresh flowers of various colours and types were grown in them, and a pleasant scent wafted off them, making one feel contented.

"You like the garden? If so, then we can take a walk here later," Taehee spoke out.

Turning her head away from the eye-catching sight, Jinhee looked at Taehee. A radiant, carefree smile was on Taehee's face.

"I won't refuse then," Jinhee replied. She flashed a big, bright smile had Han Taehee.

As she felt happy today, Han Taehee was not that irritating to her, and Lee Jinhee did not want to avoid Taehee today.

One of the servants held open the  door to the mansion, and both of them walked into the mansion.

Looking around, Jinhee took in the appearance of her surroundings. The mansion was intricately and neatly decorated from the inside.

Golden chandelier hung from the ceiling, lighting the entire room, and other small lights was placed all over the ceiling in order to illuminate the room.

A grand staircase that led to the top floor was present inside the room, and at various part of the room were vases. Inside the vases was red coloured flowers.

The maids and butlers stood in front of them— in a line— and as Jinhee and Taehee walked past them, they bowed politely.

Jinhee wasn't used to such situation, and, feeling awkward, she stared at the golden tiled floor. Taehee, on the other hand, was not bothered by this for she was used to it.

A senior butler appeared in front of Taehee, and after bowing, he voiced out, "Young Lady Taehee, you're back home. Should I arrange a room for this guest?"

Jinhee noticed that the butler did not try to ask about her or give her any kind of offending stare. The butler indeed was very much professional.
