Chapter 268 - Curiosity Kills the Cat (1/2)

After the concert was over and Yeo Ri parted ways with her costars, she stood outside the concert venue with Gun.

Kwon Tae Yang had disappeared somewhere, and him being their designated driver, the two Lees had no choice but to wait for him.

The crowd was beginning to thin, but there was still no sight of the man.

Yeo Ri's phone buzzed thrice.

She tugged Gun's sleeve, ”Oppa, I want to go to bathroom.”

”Okay. Let's go then,” Gun took a step forward nonchalantly after scanning the area for the toilet sign.

”...Can't I go alone?”

”But why? I'll go with you, okay? Oppa will worry.”

”I'm just going to the bathroom...” Yeo Ri pouted, her tone embarrassed. She wasn't a child who was too scared to go to the washroom alone anymore, geez! There were no limits to how much Gun babied her.

Gun didn't say anything. He merely blinked at his baby sister with an innocent and expectant gaze, his hand holding hers firmly.

Yeo Ri glowered at him but did not shake him off. Defeated, she dragged him to the nearest loo and joined the line to the women's toilet with him.

When her turn arrived, Gun tactfully broke away from her and leaned on the wall opposite of the toilet.

Yeo Ri picked a random open stall, locked the door, and sat down on the toilet seat.

She pulled out her phone, tapping on the 'return missed call' icon and letting it ring thrice before ending the call.

It was the method that Secretary Kwon had decided with her for when they needed to communicate secretly.

”What happened?” she asked.

”It's all clear now,” he concisely replied.

Yeo Ri frowned. ”They're still at it?”

”They saw a chance when you came to this place.”

”How did you even recognise them?”

”Experience,” he simply responded, ”and they've been following us since at the cafe.”
