Chapter 61 - 58: Shadow of The Night-3

Fresh cooked stir-fried rice cakes and fried dishes placed on top of the table. The delicious smell made Xiao Yun's stomach grumble even louder.

Looking at Xiao Yun's eyes glittering as she looks at the stir-fried rice cakes, Yeon Jun chuckles warmly.

Xiao Yun looked at Yeon Jun and laughs shyly. " What's this? "

Yeon Jun, " It's called Tteokbokki "

Xiao Yun took a pair of chopsticks, "It's looking very red though...Isn't it spicy? "

Yeon Jun shook his head, " I ordered the non-spicy one, but I think it'll taste a bit spicy, are you good with spicy food? "

Xiao Yun scratch her head, " I'm not good with spicy...thanks."

Yeon Jun smiled offering her the fried dishes. Xiao Yun took a piece of the rice cake and a tinge of spice attack her. She fans her mouth frantically, seeing this, Yeon Jun offered her a cup of water.

Quickly Xiao Yun drinks the water, " That's spicy..." and laughs.

Yeon Jun looked at the Xiao Yun's expression that adorably changes as it interacts with something new and laughs.

Yeon Jun, " Can you still eat it? "

Xiao Yun tied her hair and fans her face with her palms, " It's spicy but it tastes good! "

Yeon Jun laughs faintly and fill the cup again, " Eat slowly. " Seeing the similar scene of Xiao Yun eating the stir-fried sticky rice from his memory, Yeon Jun mumbles, " Did you really forgot everything? "

Xiao Yun felt a soft voice across her and looked up toward Yeon Jun.

Xiao Yun, " Did you say something? "

Yeon Jun shook his head and place the cup near her, " No, I didn't "

-------

Full from eating, Xiao Yun and Yeon Jun both took a walk around Myeondong street. The night brightens with the crowded people filling the street. Xiao Yun walk around the street checking every stall that took her attention with Yeon Jun.

Perhaps because of his serene and kind demeanor, talking with him felt calming and fun. It doesn't take long for them to become close friends.

Xiao Yun pull Yeon Jun's hand and point to an accessory stall, " That looks nice. " and both of them walk to the stall.

Looking at Xiao Yun and Yeon Jun standing together as she chooses the accessory, the aunt of the stall laughs and commented in Korean, " Are you guys a couple? "

Yeon Jun answered the aunty, " We are. "

The aunty of the stall giggle like a young girl hearing a passionate romance story, " You look good together. How adorable, here, take this as a bonus! " The aunty took a couple's bracelet and placed it on top of Xiao Yun's palm.

Xiao Yun dumbfoundedly looks at the two bracelets on top of her hand and scratches her head as she looks at Yeon Jun asking for a translation.

Yeon Jun laughs softly and help Xiao Yun to translate, " She said you can take the bracelet as a bonus. "

Xiao Yun's eyes lit up and thank the aunty. When Xiao Yun was about to pay for the accessories that she bought, just when she realized her money wasn't enough. Yeon Jun placed his hand on top of Xiao Yun's palm. " Yun, let me pay for you. "

Xiao Yun shook her head, " No, wait here. Isn't there any ATM near here? "

Yeon Jun, " It's quite far from her and didn't you paid for lunch last time? Just count this as my treat."

Xiao Yun thought for a moment before she agreed. Satisfied by Xiao Yun's answer, Yeon Jun took out his wallet when suddenly someone snatches Xiao Yun's wallet from her hand, pushes her body harshly and at once runs from the stall.

In a surprise, the aunty of the stall exclaims, " Help! A thief!! "

Yeon Jun turn his face towards Xiao Yun seeing Xiao Yun grunt in pain from a sharp accessory wounded her hand, coldness eradicates his usual kind eyes. " Wait here. "

Xiao Yun's face paled still in a daze as she nods. Instantly after he answered her, Yeon Jun ran following the thief.

It doesn't take long for him to catch the thief's pace. And before the thief could run away any further, Yeon Jun had cornered him to a dead-alley.

Panic, the thief pulled out a folding knife, threatening Yeon Jun, " Young man, if you don't wish to get hurt, I advise you to step away. "

At the moment Yeon Jun warm smile had turned into an icy glare. Yeon Jun waves his hand and smirk, provocating the thief, he grins coldly.

Seeing his provocative smile the thief's eyes glowered " Don't test me young man! " and ran toward Yeon Jun with his knife. Calmly Yeon Jun push the thief's hand away from his face and continue to avoid the thief's reckless attacks.

After a while of evading the thief's attack easily, Yeon Jun pulls the thief's arm and throw his body to the ground while twisting his hand to the back.

When the thief realized it his face had already laid on the ground with his hand twisted to the back. Before he could do anything, a sharp 'click' vibrated from his shoulder, his grunts echoed through the alley.

Following from behind, a couple of police huff their breath. They arrest the thief immediately and complimented Yeon Jun as they try to organize their breath. " Thank you, young man. " When the police was about to pat Yeon Jun's shoulder, in reflex, Yeon Jun evade his pat.

Yeon Jun warm expression had turned cold and smiles icily, " It was nothing, he took my friend's wallet, can you gave it back to me? "

The police look at each other in bewilderment, " Uh...That, unfortunately, your friend could not take the wallet right now, as it is still counted as an evidence."

From behind Xiao Yun who finally catch up to Yeon Jun, walk next to Yeon Jun. While huffing Xiao Yun says, " Yeon Jun, is this the thief? "

Yeon Jun nodded, " Yes, "

The police took the thief inside the car and looked at Yeon Jun, " Sir, you need to come as a witness. "

Yeon Jun nodded, " Okay. " and continues to explain the situation to Xiao Yun.
