Chapter 323 (2/2)

“…Hey,” they lowered their voice threateningly, “Do you really want to die?”

“Can you even kill—” Dulia was about to retort, but stopped Then she quickly looked in one direction; Yunael also beca at Chi-Woo, who they thought had lost interest in the intently at them He looked a bit downcast unlike before

After a brief pause, he spoke again “You two, just now, you definitely began—” It see decisively, but closed his ain Then he inhaled deeply and murmured to hiain turned his back to thee into the , but si all that An aard silence flowed between them

Soon afterward, Duliaaway Her instincts as a guide warned her that if she got mixed up with Yunael any more than this, she would truly be in trouble

“…Hey” On the other hand, Abis called out to Jin-Cheon She had finished her bohile Jin-Cheon was still gulping down his food

“You should lay low fro about?”

“Don’t act out like before and keep your mouth shut for a while”

Jin-Cheon looked at Abis for explanations, but Abis had already sealed her own lips She glanced at Chi-Woo warily She didn’t knohy, but she felt all her senses heighten

“You punks! How dare youat a group of people running away The co smoothly as usual As they continued to take on jobs, they accuood amount of money, battle experiences, and merits Yet this didn’t mean that they faced no probles, they sometimes attracted attention that they didn’t want For example, there were those who sneakily trailed after the to snatch up whatever was left behind; or there were those who deliberately tried to overlap the territories they worked in with the first teah they were able to resolve most issues without many problems, there were occasions when they had to showcase their abilities

“How can they even compare? How dare…” Ru Hiana heaved, and Evelyn tried to calet so upset about it I’m sure those people were desperate”

“But they crossed the line this time!” Ru Hiana shouted “That’s not all There’s soroup who has benefitted from Senior”

“Oh my, is that so?”

“Yes! You kno kind Senior is It seee of that fact, but too bad for theht now” Ru Hiana snorted and then sood that he isn’t here If he were, he would’ve helped theain”

Evelyn smiled faintly as Ru Hiana co fro her mouth with a hand Since Hawa rarely showed her emotions, Ru Hiana looked at her with surprise

“Are you laughing?” Ru Hiana asked

“…Not really” Hawa stopped laughing and raised her head She said, “But I don’t think he would”

“What do you mean?”

“He’s not as kind as you think he is,” Hawa said Because Ru Hiana looked like she didn’t really understand, Hawa explained, “The one you call Senior”

Ru Hiana’s expression i about Though Ru Hiana could endure other people insulting her if she tried her best, she couldn’t hold back when Chi-Woo was subject to such coh Ru Hiana’s voice turned aggressive, Hawa didn’t change her attitude

“It’s not from me,” Hawa said

“Then who? Who dares to blabber sohtly, and Hawa replied indifferently

“The legend”

Ru Hiana’s fist unclenched in an instant Her eyes turned wide

“Did Brother-in-law really say that?” Evelyn also looked interested in the conversation then Soon, Hawa found herself under the scrutiny of two pairs of keen eyes

“Well…” There was a saying that even if you knew the depths of a thirty feet deep lake, you wouldn’t know the inside of a six-foot human Every human lived with a mask on their face The personality that a person shohen interacting with another person was nothing , and only the person in question knew their true, hidden character At least this hat Hawa thought

And in Hawa’s perspective, Chi-Woo was a bit…strange In a positive light, he was consistent, and in a bad light, he was soh it didn’t seem like it, it felt like he put up a wall around others Most people wouldn’t have sensed this wall, but Hawa occasionally felt it with her keen senses In her entire life, she had never met someone who distanced themselves from others more severely than herself until she met Chi-Woo She was sure of this fro Chi-Woo did It was his manner of speech

Besides his fa to other people He didn’t differentiate between genders and spoke to everyone the same way He had only temporarily dropped it with Hawa because of a bet he made with her, but he quickly resu after that

[You don’t have to talk to ht you decided not to]

She even told hie He insisted on addressing her politely till the end And Hawa felt that this was his way of putting a barrier around others But as the reason? One ht think he would talk casually to at least one person, but even Ru Amuh wasn’t an exception Thus, Hawa became curious about what kind of person Chi-Woo was behind those walls What was he hiding?

This was the reason why she had asked the sole person hom Chi-Woo didn’t maintain a polite demeanor as he did with the others It was his brother, who knew Chi-Woo better than anyone else

[My brother?]

She hadn’t expected much from Chi-Hyun’s response It was just a question that resurfaced hertheir lunchboxes on break fro sense of responsibility And thus, he dislikes having to pay attention to things that he doesn’t necessarily have to be responsible for]

Hawa had half-expected Chi-Hyun to tell her to eat heruseless questions, yet Chi-Hyun continued

[More than things being unjust, he can’t take personal losses He sees too There’s this and that…but who knows? I can’t be sure In sos than end was strange Even though he was disinterested about everything else, he showed enormous interest whenever the topic of his brother came up But it was also the same for Chi-Woo In this way, they made it apparent that they really were brothers

[And I don’t kno all those experiences would’ve shaped his character It’s not souess So, I can’t even be certain that he’s soive you a useful tip to survive while working under him]

At this, Hawa craned her ears toward Chi-Hyun She had hardly been listening to Chi-Hyun until then What did he say? To survive?

[If you do souy’s losses, don’t do it end emphasized this point

[Keep that in mind There are only two chances]

Hawa still looked at Chi-Hyun perplexedly, and Chi-Hyun explained

[One tie your ways]

[The second time…you should not do that if you can help it, but it will probably be alright The h]

Then the third tiot to the second time and never to the third I don’t really want to think about it though]

[Why, you asked?]

[It’s because I was scared]
