Once his parents had left, Ryu Yoonmi made her way over to Eunwoo's study. For a moment, she thought of knocking on the door before stepping in, but knowing the man's personality, she was more likely to get ignored.

Therefore, without caring about her manners, she pushed the door open and strutted inside of the room. Despite of her presence, the man refused to look in her direction.

She let out a scoff while folding her hands over her c.h.e.s.t. Standing in front of table, she scrutinized the man— not willing to speak to the man until he acknowledged her.

The small and silent war between them ended when the man let out a sigh and questioned, "Don't you know basic manners?"

"That's funny coming from you," she retorted, "Anyway, I have something important to talk to you about."

"Not interested," he answered before concentrating on his doc.u.ments.

Brushing her lower lip with her tongue, Yoonmi controlled her temper. She knew that it wasn't going to be easy in the first place. After all, he wouldn't be Min Eunwoo if this was simple.

Slamming her hand on the doc.u.ments— he was paying attention to— she voiced out, "This is extremely urgent, and if you don't want to waste any time, hurry up."

"I can simply get you out of this apartment," he threatened.

"You do realize that I know the passcode to your place," she voiced out.

"That would be trespassing," he pointed out.

There was one thing she couldn't help but find strange. The most easiest and effective thing to do right now was to mention about changing the passcode, but the man before her had no intentions of doing that.

If he thought Yoonmi of a bother, wasn't it the best to change the passcode.

But seeing how he had no intentions of doing so made many questions come inside of her mind. If it wasn't for the urgent situation she was in, she would have questioned him on it.

Of course, right now, she just thought of him as an irresponsible player.

Since Yoonmi knew that she was the one who needed help this time around, she did not resort to violence. What if that would cause him to be more reluctant?

"Come on! This is really urgent. Just give me two minutes, and if you think it is foolish after that, I will leave," she stated, hoping that would convince them.

"No," he sternly said.

Due to this, she was left with no choices. There was no way she was going to get on her knees and let go of the last bit of pride she was left with.

As she hung her head low, the corner of her lips curved into a smile, and turning her back on the man, she started to leave the room. She made sure to leave the door open.

A not so creative plan was carried out by her once she was in the living room.

Taking out her phone, she got up to stand on the couch, and after selecting a loud song, she placed the phone on the table. As the song played, she warmed her throat before singing along with it at a high volume.

Along with that, she made sure to jump on all the couch and throw around the pillow. Addition to that, she made sure to let out squeals at the appropriate time.

"Oh! YAS! NOT SHY! NOT ME! YAY! NOT SHY! NOT ME! NOT—"

"What in the world are you doing right now!?"

Before she was able to continue shouting, an angry voice interrupted her. As things went just like she had predicted, she wore an innocent look on her face as she flung off the pillow in her hand.

"Oops," she voiced out.

Noticing how his face was darkening by each second, she added, "I am sorry. Don't tell me. Did I disturb you by any chance? I really did not intend to annoy you. Believe me when I say that I was bored, and since there was nothing for me to do, I was listening to songs."

A real life human was obviously scarier than a character in the novel. That's why, when she saw him made his way over to her— with that enraged expression— she couldn't help but be slightly scared.

A chill went down her back while she took a step backward, and she gulped. Knowing how strong the Male Lead was, it wouldn't be difficult for him to take care of her.

'He wouldn't resort to violence, right? No matter how much he hates me, it won't be reasonable for him to hit me. Even if he is a sc.u.m, he wouldn't— F.u.c.k that!'

"H-Hey! Don't come this close to me! Whatever you have to say, just do it from that place," she voiced out— hating herself for being this pathetic.

Then again, being under the pressure of the legendary Male Lead, she, a mere weak character, was bound to react in such a way. 

If only her enemy did not have the halo of the Male Lead!

A squeal left her mouth when her feet slipped, and her eyes widened when she realized that she was going to fall backwards. At a loss on how to protect herself, embarrassment filled her at thought of falling so miserably before him.

However, without allowing her to be grateful to him for a second, he opened his mouth.

"Are you a kid!? Throwing all of this around and jumping on the couch? Is your mental age degrading regularly? 

Even if you had done all that, you should have at least been careful. But you even almost slipped off the couch. You are totally humiliating!"
