Rin Nakamura was reading the news about the press conference on her phone while she waited for Ki Hong to arrive.

Every now and then, she would shake her head.

She shuddered as she looked at the photo of Luo Yin being taken into the police station.

As she continued to scroll down, she thought, "Thank god Dad canceled the engagement between Naomi and Luo Yin. I can't believe that the monster almost become my brother-in-law!"

"What are you reading?"

When she heard his voice, Rin Nakamura looked up at Ki Hong. She then glanced at her watch before saying, "You're 15 minutes late."

"No, I'm not," said Ki Hong as he looked at his watch. He then showed her his watch and pointed it out, "See, 2.15 p.m. I arrived right on dot."

He had actually arrived earlier at 2 p.m. but when he was passing by the cafe and saw her reading so intently through the transparent window, he decided to wait and see if she would look up.

While he watched her, he started to think about how cute she was when she reading to the point that he forgot the time as well.

She sighed, "I said 2 p.m."

"And I said 2.15 p.m," answered Ki Hong.

"We agreed on 2 p.m."

"No, you agreed on 2 p.m. and I told you that I can only arrive at 2.15 p.m."

Annoyed, Rin Nakamura pouted and turned her body away from him, "You jerk!"

Ki Hong chuckled softly. He could not understand himself but he liked to bully her.

Somehow, when she got angry, he thought of her as cute… Like an angry puppy.

He sat down next to her but she scooted further away. When he moved in deeper, she would scoot further away from him.

When she was an inch away from the wall, Ki Hong leaned in and whispered, "Oops… The little puppy is trapped! What should we do?"

She turned to glare at him but he took the opportunity to kiss her. When he did, her anger dissipated and by the time they parted, her face was red with embarrassment instead of anger.

She looked down at her feet and murmured, "You always do this…"

He shrugged, "Yeah, that's cause you're cute when you're angry."

"Jerk…"

Ki Hong smiled and wrapped his arm around her waist. She did not resist him and allowed him to sit closer to him.

Luckily, the air-conditioning was great or they would not be able to sit so near to each other without sweating.

"What were you reading earlier?" asked Ki Hong before he flagged down a waiter.

Rin Nakamura waited for him to place his drink order and after the waiter left, she answered him, "The news on the press conference yesterday… Luo Yin has been arrested."

She looked at him and said, "I don't know how Kai Xin managed to do it."

Ki Hong sighed, "She's an idiot…"

He had been so angry with her when her attitude suddenly changed and she kept avoiding him up to the day she moved away without saying anything.

It was only now that he could understand why she suddenly had an aversion towards his touch.

"Did you know?" asked Rin Nakamura as she sipped on her mocha frappuccino.

He shrugged, "No. I would've forced her to blow it up if I knew… But when I watch the live report yesterday, I can understand why she won't say anything."

Rin Nakamura sighed sadly, "She must be so lonely then…"

Ki Hong nodded. He had been a little angry at himself as well, for not noticing it. Then again, even if he noticed, what could he have done?

He would be like her. Powerless.

He could see why she played a long game. There was no guarantee that she could get the justice but she did it just as well.

"It was like her… Even if there's only 1% of chance that she could do it, she would," thought Ki Hong as he smiled wryly.

When Rin Nakamura noticed that Ki Hong stopped talking, she poked him and called out softly, "Ki Hong?"

Ki Hong blinked and looked at her for a second before he shrugged, "Oh well, at least she's no longer lonely now. She has President Du, and her family, and you and your sister. By the way, are you going to be related to President Du now?"

"What?"
