Chapter 34 - Fine then, I will grant your wish (1/2)

After the last shoot, Kang Si An looks around. He can't see his fake girlfriend anywhere. Worried that she ran away again, he gets up to look for her. He saw her talking to Ki Mi Ran earlier. These two girls have become best friends. It's unexpected to see someone like Ki Mi Ran to befriend Kwon Kyuri. Beautiful Ki Mi Ran has a pure heart, unlike that sly and cunning woman who wants to frustrate him to death. He wants to get closer to Ki Mi Ran, but he can't because everyone knows that Kwon Kyuri is his girlfriend.

”She threatened me.” He is about to knock when he hears Ki Mi Ran's voice. ”She told me to try my best to steal him from her. Tell me, aren't I the most beautiful girl in this country? If I want Kang Si An, I can have him anytime.”

”Yes, Mi Ran.” The female's voice belongs to the second female lead of the movie. ”You are the most beautiful girl.”

”Then, why Kang Si An can't see it? He should ditch that ugly duckling and come to me.” Sound of glass breaking. ”How daring of her to look down at me? Did you make sure to mix that powder in her drink?”

”Yes, she took the drink from me today. I saw her drinking it.” There is a pause. ”I locked her in the storage room. That perverted cameraman would go there after finishing the shoot. We should wait 15 minutes more before we take everyone there.”

Kang Si An doesn't wait to hear more. He runs to the storage room. He sees the cameraman opening the door. ”Stop.”

The cameraman stops and frowns at him. ”Is something wrong?”

”The director is looking for you.” He stands in front of the door.

”Oh!” The cameraman frowns. ”Mami Kim told me that there is someone here waiting for me.”

”That person is with the director.” Kang Si An clenches his fist. ”Please go. They have been waiting for a while.”

”Thank you for telling me.” The cameraman leaves in a hurry.

”Kyuri, it's me.” He approaches her slowly. ”Do you feel sick?”

She doesn't answer him.

”I will take you to the hospital.” He touches her arm hesitantly. Her skin is hot to touch. ”Come with me.”

She lunges on him suddenly and grabs his clothes. She reaches for his lips like a starving person and roughly kisses him before he can push her away. ”Kyuri, bear with it. I will -”

She can't hear him or make sense of the words. Her body has been drugged by a strong aphrodisiac. Her mind is vague and incapable of rationality. She tries to kiss him again, but he locks her in his arms. ”Don't. We can't. Just don't.”

She looks up at him tearfully. ”Pain.”

He grabs the back of the head to keep her still. ”Where?”

”It's burning.” Her lips tremble weakly. ”Please, Li Jun.”

Kang Si An stares at her. Even in this state, she is calling him that. Last night, she also called him that. Feeling like a claw is trying to tear his heart into pieces, he looks at her furiously.

”Li Jun, I can't bear it.”
