Chapter 272 - So clumsy (2/2)
Although Jinhee was alright with being beaten by Youngmi to a certain extent, doing classes when she was in pain would not be effective, and in this life of hers, Jinhee was determined to study properly.
”Ah! Is that so? Sorry for bothering you then. This was sort of important, but I guess, I understand,” Youngmi said in a dejected tone as she stared down at the floor.
As a sigh left her mouth, Youngmi turned her back on Jinhee and started walking towards her place. Whispers of how Jinhee behaved badly with Youngmi reached her ears. However, those talks did not bother her even slightly.

After collecting everyone's notebooks, Jinhee and Youngmi walked towards the teacher's office. Jinhee was not guarded at this moment for it would be too suspicious for Soyeon to follow her closely, and she could only put her trust into Taehyun for now.
As the two of them held on to the stack of notebooks and walked towards the direction of the teacher's office, Jinhee saw that the hallway before her was quite empty, and there was no sign of any people beside her.
At that moment, Jinhee felt someone nudge at her harshly with their elbow, and losing her balance— mostly due to the heavy weight in her hand— Jinhee stumbled, causing some of the notebooks in her hand to fall down.
She had no idea on whether or not this was being recorded by Taehyun. Nevertheless, she prayed for Taehyun to collect evidences on this for she had mentioned him to do so before exiting the class with the notebooks.
Turning her head, Jinhee glanced at Youngmi, who was staring at her with a smug smile and let out a sigh. Crouching down on the floor, Jinhee decided to pick up the notebooks lying upon it.
Placing the stack of notebooks on the floor, she extended her hand towards the other notebooks and began to pick them up one by one.
That is when she saw how Youngmi raised her leg and kicked at the stack of books, causing all of them to scatter on the floor randomly.
Raising her line of sight, Jinhee glared at Kwon Youngmi to which she just shrugged her shoulders and said, ”Why are you staring at me? Do your job properly and don't be this clumsy. I do not want to be scolded by the teacher's just because of you.”
Letting out a scoff, Jinhee began to arrange the books again. Jinhee's behaviour was starting to annoy Youngmi, and when Youngmi was about to kick Jinhee, she heard footsteps at the direction of the hallway.
Immediately, Youngmi sat down on the floor, and wearing a smile on her face, she picked up one of the books, handing it to Jinhee.
”Jinhee-ah, you are so clumsy. Here,” Youngmi vocalised.
As the sound of the footsteps also reached Jinhee's ear, she was aware of the reason behind Youngmi's sudden behaviour change. Nevertheless, she accepted the book from Youngmi and placed it on her stack.
After she was done picking up all of the books, she noticed how students were starting to fill the hallway, and Jinhee was beginning to feel disappointed. She could have gotten Youngmi to do worse things to her if it was not for this.
Standing up with all of the books in her hand, Jinhee walked towards the direction of the teacher's office, without paying any attention to Youngmi, knowing that this will be aggravating Youngmi further.
