Chapter 179 Best Example Of An Asshole (2/2)

And she tried to kill him.

But look at them being friends at the end of the day.

Just the thought of it was enough to make her laugh for weeks.

Noticing the bright glare of the moonlight, Rhys knew that Inna should get back to the other side. Although he knew that, he still didn't want to end what they had right now so he decided to just draw out their conversation until she herself decided to leave.

”Hey, Nana.”

”Yes?”

”Say my name.”

”Rhys?”

”Nana.”

”Rhys.”

”Nana.”

Inna furrowed her brows.

Where was he going with this?

”Yes, Rhys?”

Wracking his brain for a question, Rhys looked at her with innocent eyes as he asked her with a serious expression.

”What does 'asshole' mean?”

Inna choked on her saliva as she tried to keep a straight face.

”Uh…. why are you asking?”

Rhys replied with a glint of curiosity as he recalled the time she said it.

”You always call me that. And I have a feeling that I should be offended when you do but I don't know what it means so I can't be sure.”

Inna gulped as she shakily smiled.

Would he be pissed if she really told him the real meaning?

She decided against it and instead chose to play a prank on him instead. Well, it's not like he'll learn what it means from someone else so she decided to have her small revenge from him teasing her.

With an amused smile, Inna began to explain what it was while trying to hide the laughter that was dying to come out.

”Actually, 'asshole' is a term I give to handsome powerful men. And so when I saw you, I immediately knew you were an asshole.”

Rhys looked at her suspiciously as he spoke.

”Are you sure it's not a derogatory term? I always feel some malice whenever you say it.

Inna's eyes widened as she sputtered an excuse.

”Ah… uh... that's because I was pissed at you! Anything I say will have malice when I feel angry while saying it.”

Rhys saw that her excuse was plausible so he didn't question it further. Instead, he smirked as he focused on something else.

”So, by calling me that, that must mean… you find me handsome and powerful?”

Inna shakily smiled at him, witholding the laughter she so badly want to release, as she spoke.

”Yeah, you're the best example of an asshole.”
