Chapter 271 - A mess (1/2)

”Oh! You came,” Jinhee vocalised.

Her heart began to palpitate rapidly within her chest at Taehyun's presence, and Jinhee found herself feeling content with everything.

Pulling away from the hug, Taehyun said, ”Of course, I did.”

Lee Jinhee's eyes widened when she saw the slight tears, which formed on Taehyun's eyes. They brought surprise to Jinhee because she did not expect Taehyun to shed tears for her.

Han Taehyun did not seem who would easily cry to her, and seeing him cry for her made Jinhee feel joy spread through her. This showed to Jinhee how special she was to Taehyun.

”Are you crying?” Jinhee questioned.

Wiping the stray tear, which formed at the corner of her eyes, Taehyun vocalised, ”What does it seem like? Do you know how much it hurt for me when I saw him directing all those attack towards you? It was extremely suffocating, and I felt utterly useless.”

Lee Jinhee chuckled and said, ”It was not that bad. This was not anything like I have not gone through before, Taehyun, and thank you for playing along.”

”There is no way I am letting you go through that again, and I do not care that Youngmi is a female because I will be directing all those punches towards her one day,” Taehyun vocalised.

Jinhee laughed at his words and stated, ”That would not make you gentlemanly, but I am looking forward to it. I might need to get couple more punches from him, and I am looking forward to you avenging me.”

”Couple more punches? I definitely would not let you go through that regardless of what you say,” Taehyun said as he brought his hand behind Jinhee's shoulder.

Wrapping his hands around her, he stood up whilst carrying her in the bridal style, and surprised by his sudden movement, a gasp left her mouth.

”My heart was squeezed terribly in that instant, and seeing you go through this pain is definitely something I will not be allowing next time around.

I told you that I will be protecting you, and I will be keeping my words; Never again I will be letting you play around like this by putting your life in danger,” Taehyun added whilst wearing a serious expression.

Taehyun's words caused a blush to form upon Jinhee's cheeks, and as they began to get warmer, Jinhee could distinctly hear her heart beating rapidly within her chest.

”You are exaggerating everything, Taehyun. People will be calling me incompetent then,” Jinhee pointed out.

As Taehyun walked outside of the washroom, he vocalised, ”How are you incompetent? Weren't you successful in capturing my heart? This definitely puts you above of everyone.”

Jinhee scoffed and said, ”Tch! You are really c.o.c.ky! Now, let me sleep in your arms. I feel really tired after all of that.”

As the scent of disinfectants invaded her nostrils again, Jinhee let out a groan. Waking up from her small nap, she saw herself at the hospital again, and at this point, she was starting to form a strong disliking towards the hospital.

”Why am I back here again?” Jinhee vocalised, ”This was not even that serious.”

”We need a doctor's report in order to make your plan more effective, and even without that, I wanted to make everything confirmed with the doctors. What if it was really serious?” Han Taehyun raised one of his eyebrows.

Jinhee vocalised, ”Well, that sounds reasonable enough. Now that it is done, let's go home.”

”The doctor said that it will be better for you to spend at the night at the hospital, and I would not want you to go to Lee Mansion in this state. Some assholes there would not allow you to rest,” Taehyun vocalised.

”I need to face them sooner or later, and U am curious to see what type of drama is happening there. Moreover, wouldn't you be there to protect me?” Jinhee stated.

”I will be there to protect you, but at this moment, there is no better place for you other than the hospital,” Taehyun voiced out whislt staring at Jinhee sternly.

No improvements were made in her father's case, and Jinkyung was extremely frustrated at this point. Her social life plummeted a lot, and she was made a joke at the school today.

Those who did not dare to speak to her and worshipped her was mocking her the entire time today, and they laughed at her whenever they got the chance to go so.

Negative gossips about her spread throughout the school, and sooner or later, she will be turned into a joke at this rate.

She needed someone to clarify her father's matter for her. She was extremely angry at her father for the entire ordeal. There was no need for her to go through this if he had handled things properly.

Jinkyung also felt enraged towards Jinhee. Jinkyung had an inkling that it was Jinhee who had revealed the entire matter of her accident and how she was not the actual daughter to the media.

Jinkyung tried to contact Han Taeho the entire time. However, Taeho's phone remained switched off everytime she called, and she was desperate to give that man a piece of her mind.

Stabbing Jinhee multiple number of times might make her feel better currently, and Jinkyung was tempted to do it. Because of Lee Jinhee, everything was going wrong in her life, and now, even Kim Jaehyun would have a negative opinion on her.

”Lee Jinhee, you will certainly be suffering for all of this. You probably think you won, but that will never happen. I would not let you win,” Jinkyung mumbled to herself.

At that moment, Jinkyung did not know what to do or how to make herself feel better. She desperately craved to destroy Jinhee at this point, and there was no limit to how long she will be sinking for that.

At that moment, she received a notification on her phone.
