Chapter 48 - Interrupting them [3]

"What do you mean by those words of yours, Shin Daerin?" Oh Sookyung questioned— confusion present in his voice.

"Oh my! Would you look at the time?" She spoke out, "I forgot that I have an important task to do later on. Oops! Let's catch up later on."

With those words, she turned her back on Oh Sookyung and was about to walk away when she felt her hand being gripped by someone, causing her to halt in her steps.

Surprised by his actions, she looked back and raised one of her eyebrows at him. She then questioned, "What are you trying to do?"

"Who sent you to follow after me, Shin Daerin? Who are you?" he asked— seeming slightly paranoid.

"You really want to know the truth behind it?" Jiwoo vocalised while a small smirk formed upon her face.

"Moon Jiwoo, I am warning you once again. Do not attempt to do anything reckless or I will be personally killing you. Remember that."

'Wow! You really got the courage now. You can kill me? Who was scared shitless when I tried to commit suicide before? I got the situation under control any way. Geez! Don't you have any other job other than irritating me.'

Oh Sookyung nodded his head.

"Well then, help me carry this shopping bags, and once we reach my hotel, I will be informing you on everything. You will surely not have any problem with that," Jiwoo spoke out, extending her hands toward him.

"Seriously, Moon Jiwoo, you are going for that? I want to strangle you now. Follow my instructions next. Using the brain is not made for someone like you."

'Weird Creature, if you don't stop irritating me, I would not hesitate to check the limit of the credit card.'

"Why should I be carrying your shopping bags? Now, give me the answer to that question, Shin Daerin. Who have sent you there?" he said.

"Am I obligated to listen to you? No, absolutely not. But I am willing to listen to you if you carry those bags for me. Although I am stronger than you, my hands can ache as well," she stated.

"Those shopping bags— I am willing to carry those for you, but how do I know for sure that you are going to answer me after that?" he vocalised.

"Are you actually doubting me? Look, I give you my word about this, and if you don't trust me, then I can do this I suppose," Moon Jiwoo said, reaching into her pocket.

Taking out her credit card, she held in front of him and said, "You can keep the possession of it; you can return it to me only after I give you the truth."

"Moon Jiwoo, what are you doing? Are you actually giving this card to him after knowing what type of person he is? The bank is going to be completely run empty by him," Minnie stated.

'Shut up. That card was given to you by me, and now that belongs to me. That naturally gives me the permission to do whatever I want with it. Moreover, since he is your Prince, I don't think there is anything wrong with him spending your money.'

Staring down at the card, Oh Sookyung scoffed and questioned, "Are you that foolish and naive to give your card to me?"

"The money inside is exactly isn't mine, and I kind of hate the owner as well, so it doesn't exactly bother me if you spend all the money inside it," Jiwoo vocalised.

Oh Sookyung let out a chuckle, and extending his hand towards her, he took the card from her hand along with those shopping bags.

"I hope that we will be having a pleasant cooperation," Sookyung vocalised whilst wearing a wide smile on his face.

Although the way the girl planned it was utterly flawed, he decided to along with it for he needed an answer from her about that question.

"Refrain from putting that smile on your face. That disgusts me," Jiwoo honestly commented.

That smile of his reminded her of the hypocritic Ahn Eunwoo, and it brought disgust to her. Memories of those times was something she took to be a smear in her past— an utter humiliation.

"Is that so? That just makes me more happy about it then," he said while his smile became brighter, and a sparkle appeared in his eyes.

"You are gross," she expressed, scrunching up her nose at him.

She then added, "It really doesn't flatter a dude to act all cute and innocent; it makes them look weak and pathetic. Then again, seeing how you were knocked out by me the other day, I guess both of those words can apply to you."

"I was caught off guard that day, but that would not be happening always," he stated as a cough escaped from his mouth. Events of that day managed to fluster him.

"What a loser!" she exclaimed.

Her words managed to hit a nerve within him, and raising his hand, he slightly knocked on the back of her head, causing her to wince.

Turning back, she glared at him and spoke out, "Yah, You Asshole! What was that for?"

"Nothing, it is the duty of the elders to teach the kids manners, and that is what I am doing," he spoke out.

"You are lucky that my shopping bags are in your hands or else I would have beaten you up to the point you would not be able to move for decades," she threatened.

"Weren't you send here to protect me? Are you actually allowed to say such words to me?" he questioned.

"Although that scumbag forced me into this, I believe that she will be perfectly fine as long as you don't die completely," she replied.

"Oh! Is that so? Could it be that you knew me before I approached you the other day with the card?" he questioned— changing his voice to a gentler tone.

Turning her head to face him, she asked, "Why did you change your tone again?"
