Chapter 272 - So clumsy (1/2)

As both of them walked into the school building, Taehyun held on to Jinhee's hand tightly and intertwined both of their hands together. Since it was not uncommon for two girls to walk like this, no one commented much about.

Jinhee could see how Taehyun was being protective over her and keeping an eye on everything around them. After what had occured yesterday, Taehyun did not want one more injury to be inflicted upon Jinhee.

”Soyeon is supposed to be my bodyguard, Taehyun-ah,” Jinhee whispered to him.

”I am better at this than her. After—”

Before Taehyun could say something, his eyes spotted something, and gripping Jinhee's wrist, he pulled Jinhee's body closer to him. His sudden action made Jinhee's eyes wider, and her head touched his chest.

Raising her head, Jinhee eyes stared at Taehyun's face and gave him an confused gaze. Everyone passing by the hallway had their eyes on the two.

As Taehyun's hand secured Jinhee by holding on to her waist, a frown sat upon on his face as he vocalised, ”There seems to be something on the floor.”

Extending his leg towards it, Taehyun rubbed it slightly with the surface of his foot and stated, ”It is quite slippery as well.”

Jinhee nodded and pointed out, ”You could have just told me about it instead of pulling me like this.”

A chuckle left Jinhee's mouth as he replied, ”This seemed more dramatic and cooler in my opinion, plus with this, I got a chance to hug you.”

Jinhee shook her head at the boy while she pulled away from him. Although she would not vocally admit it, Taehyun's actions caused her heart to skip a beat.

As Jinhee was immersed within another one of her teasing session with Min Hyunbin, she felt someone tapping on her shoulder, and wondering who it could be, she turned her head back.

Seeing Kwon Youngmi stand behind her, Jinhee raised one of her eyebrows and politely questioned, ”Was there anything you needed, Youngmi-ssi?”

There was so sign of that viciousness from yesterday on Youngmi's face, and a nervous expression sat on her face whilst she fidgeted with her fingers.

She then replied, ”Can we go outside for a while to talk, Jinhee-ssi? This is important, and I promise it would not take much of your time.”

Jinhee felt how Taehyun squeezed her hand and tightly gripped on to her hand, letting her know that he was not willing with her going outside.

”I am afraid it would not be appropriate to do so now, Youngmi-ssi. The teacher will be coming any minute now, and I don't want to get in trouble,” Jinhee vocalised.
