Chapter 399 - Felt guilty

As Ryu Yoonmi had expected, Jihae stepped out with a slice of strawberry cake on top of a plate, and seeing how she was moving over to Hyungsik's table, Yoonmi poked the girl opposite to her.

"Instead of talking nonsense, listen to my words carefully. You see the girl over there— the waitress? Just bump into her so that she falls into the man from earlier, alright? Make it seem as if it was accidental," Yoonmi ordered.

The antagonistic characters had a talent when it came to these things, and therefore, Yoonmi trusted her with this.

"Did that girl offend you? You want me to take revenge?" Minah asked— curiosity playing in her eyes.

"Don't ask too many questions! I will explain all of this to you later on. Now, hurry up!" Yoonmi voiced out, trying to push the girl off her seat.

"Fine, fine. I am going," Minah stated.

Excitement rose within Yoonmi, she picked up the cup of iced coffee before her, and as the taste touched her tongue, Yoonmi wondered about how the things will turn out to be.

Thrilled for this to happen, Yoonmi had to bite her lips in order to stop herself from smiling! This is probably how all of those villainess felt before carrying out their plan!

In her head, she started counting the number for she was barely able to hold on to her enthusiasm. 

That's when, the loud sound came, and placing on a calm expression, she turned in that direction. Although Yoonmi had no trust in her acting skills, from these days, she learned that they were quite decent.

However, her excitement diminished when she saw the scene before her, and a gasp escaped from her mouth while she stood up. Her widened due to surprise.

As Yoonmi had mentioned to her, Minah did indeed push Jihae, but the problem was that she was pushed on the wrong man.

While the cake fell on the male, a loud scream escaped from his mouth— almost deafening those around him— and he abruptly stood up. 

While Minah stood at one side, folding her arms over her c.h.e.s.t, a certain amount of arrogance could be seen in her eyes. Seeing how Minah did not feel a slight amount of guilt, Yoonmi truly wanted to applaud at her for being the best comrade to the villainess.

But more than that, she wanted to beat up the girl for messing this up!

The man slammed his hand on the table, and while he glared at Jihae, he vocalised, "What have you done!? Do you know how much this cost me!? A measly waitress like you won't be able to ever compensate for it!

And my manicure, look at what you have done to them! It took me a long time to get an appointment booked yet you ruined! You- you bitch!"

While Minah showed no signs of apologising, Jihae, on the other hand, bowed multiple number of times by now while repeating 'sorry'. The fear and guilt was easily shown on Jihae's face.

If such an expression wasn't shown on her face, she wouldn't truly be the female lead. The female leads were required to be bullied in the beginning, in order to give the chance for them to get stronger and get protected by the lead characters.

Knowing that she was partly in fault for this, Yoonmi wanted to go help her, but when she had noticed how Hyungsik had closed his laptop's screen, she decided to leave this up to the second female lead.

Thinking about it, this still seemed like a cliché scene from the novel.

Afraid that Minah would be ruining everything, she signalled for the girl to come over to her the moment Minah glanced her. Obediently, Minah walked over to her.

As much as Yoonmi wanted to scold the girl, she wanted to leave it for the later after she was done with watching the romantic scene between the female lead and second male lead.

Not failing her expectations, Hyungsik pushed his chair back before standing up, and turning back, he made his way over to the pale Jihae.

While the poor customer was cursing out profanities, he voiced out, "I will compensate you for it. That's why, stop creating a scene here. It wouldn't be good for your reputation as a blogger."

Although Hyungsik threatened the man, the gentle smile on his face remained, which succeeded in getting Yoonmi to let out a small squeal. Even when he was threatening, he was too charming!

The frustration was instantly was shown on the blogger's face while he clenched his hand into a tight fist, and he stated, "How will you be able to compensate for me? These pants limited edition and cost me six million won, and the shirt cost me five million won!"

Yoonmi really did not want to intervene, but she couldn't bear to have the man rip off the money from the Second Male Lead. Knowing how Second Male Leads tend to be, she knew that Hyungsik wouldn't be hesitation before giving him that amount of money.

"Are you a thief?" Yoonmi asked.

Unlike Minah, Yoonmi knew how to feel guilt, and that's why, due to her instigation, she did not want anyone else to pay for it.

Her voice caused the blogger to turn his head towards her, and seeing how so many people were ganging up on him led his face to darken further. 

His anger was understandable. Even Yoonmi would have felt the same way if she was used as a stepping stone for someone else's romance, but the fate of the side characters couldn't be helped.

"Who the hell are you? Don't interfere!" the man spoke out.

Knowing that she was the one at most fault— after Minah of course— she calmly spoke out, "I am known as a spoiled brat by hundreds of thousands, but even I won't consider my clothes to be ruined simply after this.

How about I buy you a simple set of clothing and get this washed for you? Send me your location."
