Chapter 347 - A foul play!

Finally being able to see him after a period of time caused joy to spread within Soohyun's heart, and pressing her hand on the bed, she attempted to sit up on the bed.

Leaning against the bed, she turned her head to look at Minhyun and flashed him a wide smile. After using all of that power, her body felt completely exhausted and was desperate for rest.

However, more than that, she found herself craving to spend more time with Minhyun. It seemed that she had truly missed him.

"So, did you miss me?" Soohyun questioned, raising one of her eyebrows.

Her expectations to hear sweet words from him instantly diminished after he uttered, "Not exactly. I was too preoccupied to think about it."

"Wow! Both of us can be similar at times, Minhyun. Even I did not think about you once. How can there be such a coincidence?" Soohyun voiced out while a forced smile appeared upon her face.

Extending his hand towards her, he patted the top of her head, ruffling her hair slightly, and spoke out, "No more joking around. Any way, how have things been going?"

"Before that, should not you be saying where I am? This doesn't feel like the surface. It is really safe for us to be at the Underworld?" she arched her eyebrows.

A gasp left Han Minhyun's face while he feigned surprise on his face and vocalised, "I am astonished that you are even aware of that, Lee Soohyun. I thought you have forgotten about how you are hunted in the Underworld."

Scrunching up her nose at him and furrowing her eyebrows, she gave him a disapproving gaze, and a frown settled on top of her face. It has been so long yet he was treating her in this way.

'This Han Minhyun is really a jerk! Is this how someone responds to their saviour? Even I know how to be more grateful than him!'

"Geez! Do you think that I actually wanted to enter into a cave filled with vicious lion? If it was not the fact that Minnie gave me headaches on constant nagging on saving you, do you actually believe that I will be willing to risk everything to save you?" Soohyun stated as mock showed in her eyes and folded her arms across her c.h.e.s.t.

"I do not understand why that Mihee had sent you. You were not of that much help, and I would have pretty much survived that without you. You were trouble more or less. You were really heavy to be carried out of their," he spoke out, "Maybe from next time onwards, I will be abandoning you. After all, you are not worth getting trouble into."

'Wow! This dude is a complete jerk! He loves me? Geez! That was merely another trap that he had lied for me. I am pretty sure the moment I start to believe in those sweet talks of his, he will be laughing at me on how easily I have gotten fooled by him. This Han Minhyun is obnoxiously cunning! Now, he had even sealed his emotions from me. He is a jerk above all jerks!'

"I don't know why I am feeling so tired all of a sudden. Han Minhyun, it seems that I need to sleep now. You have to leave the room. When I am sleeping, I do not like bugs to be there inside my room," she said— her eyes failing to hide the murderous intent in them.

Shrugging his shoulders, Han Minhyun spoke out, "Well, if you do not like bugs, you have to drive it away by yourself. Don't expect others to do your job for you, Soohyun."

'You asshole! You surely are having a joy from this! What? After that near death experience, you thought that you did not have enough joy in life and decided to stick back with those sadistic p.l.e.a.s.u.r.es of yours? Ah! This Bastard!'

"Are you cursing me inside your mind? I am actually curious to know what you are thinking of at this moment," he stated as a glint appeared in his eyes.

"No, I was merely contemplating on the extent of ungratefulness a certain bug could be," she said while her jaws clenched tightly.

"Oh! I have figured one more new thing about you today, Lee Soohyun," he vocalised, "It seemed that you do all the actions with the intention of being thanked for them."

Staring at Minhyun with a bored expression, she voiced out, "Even though I greatly resemble one, don't tell me that you have actually thought of me as an angel the entire time? Of course I want others to be grateful to me!"

He chuckled and spoke out, "I am sorry. I won't try to tease you anymore. It's just cute how you change your expressions so much in a matter of couple of seconds."

Although at her age, cute should not be a word that would affect her that much. But hearing Minhyun utter that word caused her heart to beat rapidly within her c.h.e.s.t, and she could feel her cheeks getting warmer.

"This is foul play! You can't change this easily," she vocalised while she turned to look at the other way. 

"Aw! Could it be that my love is shy now? Turn this way, so that I will be able to see you," he spoke out.

Lee Soohyun coughed and said, "It is nothing of that sort. Shouldn't you be busy now? Then, why are you wasting so much time like this? Get to the main point."

Up until her cheeks were not returning to the normal state, she was determined to not look at Han Minhyun or else she would have to bear with another set of teasing from him. Something seemed to have activated his sadistic switch.

But that's when, she felt a pair of hand hold on to her face, and her face was turned all of a sudden. As her eyes fell on those eyes of Minhyun, her heart beat rate went up again.

"It's not fun to talk to you when you are looking the other way."

With those words, he placed his lips on top of Soohyun's..
