Chapter 228 - Selfish narcissist (1/2)
Min Hyesook had her face covered with a scarf as she got down from the bus. In order to let herself be caught by anyone, she did not take the car.
As she looked at her either side to make sure that there was no one who recognized her, she got down from the bus. Her hands tightly clenched onto the bag within which was the book.
Hugging the book closer to her chest, Hyesook immediately rushed out of that place and made her way to where she would be meeting that man.
Held within one of her hands was her phone, and the map could be seen on the screen of the phone. Following the directions given in the map, Hyesook walked towards the alley way.
Occasionally her body bumped against those of other people, and after that, she had to fix her scarf each time. There were people who were staring at her suspiciously. Fortunately enough, there were not many person out at this time of the day.
Paying no mind to those looks, Hyesook entered in the alleyway. A stench hit her nose, causing her to scrunch up her nose, and she could feel the damp surface beneath the foot.
A dog slept at one corner of the alley, and seeing its dirty fur made Hyesook feel disgusted. Chills went down her back as she noticed the cloaked man standing under the dim lighting.
The sun began to rise, creating a beautiful gradient of various colours in the sky. Clouds floated in the sky whilst cold air passed by them.
”You are finally here,” The cloaked man said.

Lee Soohyun was dressed in a white dress, which resembled a nightdress in her opinion. Nonetheless, this was an appropriate clothing for the ceremony.
Han Minhyun was clothed in white as he held tightly on to Soohyun's hand in order to show some kind of support to her. Lee Soohyun squeezed Minhyun's hand.
At this point, Soohyun found her mind being completely blank. There were no positive thoughts or negative thoughts. Her mind was completely clear of such thoughts.
”You will be fine,” Minhyun whispered to her.
Throughout the entire time, Minhyun tried to lift up her spirits through his words, and it somewhat worked for Soohyun.
Han Minhyun must be as much as worried and anxious regarding the matter like Soohyun. After all, if she does not manage to make out of it, he will be tremendously affected as well. Not only he, but also his entire Clan will be negatively impacted.
There was a great pressure on her to make out of this, and instead of her feeling down because of it, Soohyun found herself being more hyped up as this made her feel important.
”I know, I will be fine. That is what I am chanting in my mind the entire time,” Soohyun vocalised, ”There is no way I will be letting go of my second chance to survive this soon.”
”No matter how hard the pain is, Soohyun, do not let it consume you and make you give up. You can fight out of it. Even if no one cares about you and betrays you, remember that you should be there for yourself.
