Chapter 251 - Nice to see you

As Han Taehyun entered into her room, Lee Jinhee raised her head from the notebooks she was looking at, and smiling towards Han Taehyun, she vocalised, "Teacher, you're late today. I need a refund."

Han Taehyun chuckled and voiced out, "Student Jinhee, since a kiss is your payment, should I kiss you to refund you?"

Scrunching up her nose, Jinhee questioned, "When did I agree to being that being my payment?"

Han Taehyun shrugged his shoulders and stated, "Student Jinhee, your opinions doesn't matter. As your teacher, I get to decide the payment system."

"That's a wrong logic, but whatever. You are the one who would not receive any payments in the end," Jinhee said.

Taehyun nodded and vocalised, "Sure, you can say that now, but when I seduce you later on, then you will be giving up within a matter of seconds."

Lee Jinhee coughed as a slight blush covered her cheeks. Feeling annoyed at Han Taehyun's c.o.c.ky personality, she said, "Alright I will admit it. The only thing that made me fall for you is your looks. Otherwise with that personality of yours, never in a million years, I would have had feelings for you."

Han Taehyun chuckled and said, "You really have the habit of saying something different from what you mean, Jinhee-ah. Nonetheless, I admit that side of yours is cute as well. Do you even have a side that it is not cute?"

"You'll see that when I stab you with the knife repeatedly. Now, freshen yourself up quickly; I have few questions for my Teacher," Jinhee said as she folded her arms over her chest.

Smiling, Han Taehyun walked towards Jinhee, causing her to raise one of her eyebrows, and bending his back slightly, Taehyun softly pecked on Jinhee's lips.

Then, pulling back, he gave Jinhee a wide smile and said, "Now that I have received my payment, I will work more efficiently now."

Scoffing at Han Taehyun, Jinhee expressed, "You are really annoying, Taehyun."

Han Taehyun winked and stated, "Too bad, annoying males are your type. That is actually funny."

"Tch! I don't even know what was I thinking when I confessed to you that day. I most definitely hate you." Lee Jinhee sighed.

"Well, once you start loving, Taehyun, you can not fall out of love with him. Aigoo! Jinhee, I really pity you," Taehyun said.

"Just get lost now," Jinhee expressed whilst glaring upon Han Taehyun. Whether or not she liked him had no effect on her thoughts of how annoying Han Taehyun was.

"Yes, My Girlfriend, I am going."

Standing opposite to Lee Dowon's desk whilst holding the notebook she had drawn the design in, Jinhee's eyes fell on Dowon, and seeing how happy he was at her enthusiasm to take over the business made Jinhee felt guilt.

Nonetheless, this had to be done. Whilst showing expectation in her eyes, she handed the notebook to Lee Dowon. She made sure that her designs had some immature mistakes within it, and coupled with her bad drawing skills, Jinhee was sure that it did not appear to be something of a professional.

As Lee Dowon took the notebook from Jinhee, he opened the pages, and bending towards him, she pointed towards the design she drew for the competition.

"This is the one I did, Grandfather Dowon. How is it?" She voiced out as she tried to sound nervous— not because of the result but because of getting caught.

As Lee Dowon's eyes scanned over the design with concentration, she bit her lips as anticipation brewed within her, and after few minutes passed, he raised his line of sight to look at Jinhee.

"This was potential," Dowon vocalised, "However, your drawing skills need to be improved, and at some point, it looks unneat. It might attract some people and has the unique quality. Nonetheless, to majority, it might not appeal. For being a beginner, you did an incredible job!"

Lee Jinhee knew that she did not deserve that compliment. Nevertheless, she smiled at him and said, "Yes, I will try to do better next time around."

"It is nice to see you take interest in the business, but, Jinhee-ah, it isn't that good of an idea to provoke Lee Minjoon in that way," Dowon expressed.

Lee Jinhee nodded and voiced out, "Sorry, Grandpa Dowon, I will not try to do it again. It is just that he makes me angry."

As much as Lee Jinhee wanted to tell him about her plans, she was reluctant for she knew that Dowon would be only worrying about her, and that was not what she wanted at this moment.

As Jinhee stepped into her room, she noticed that Han Taehyun was seated upon her bed whilst scrolling through his phone. Creases we're between two of his eyebrows whilst he did so, and wondering what the reason behind that could be, she stepped towards him.

"What's the matter? You don't seem to be in a pleasant mood," Jinhee pointed out as she sat down beside her. 

As Lee Jinhee moved her head to look at the screen, she caught glimpse of the school's forum, but before she could further see something, Han Taehyun hid the screen away from her.

Smiling towards Jinhee, Taehyun said, "These are boys matter. You would not like it if you saw all of that."

Scrunching up her nose, she said, "You're gross. I would've probably believed you some other time, but I have seen that frown on your face and the school's forum. What is it, Taehyun?"

"Secret," Taehyun said whilst putting emphasis on the word.

"Well, doesn't matter if you don't want to tell me about it. I will just go and check the school forum on my own," Jinhee stated as she was about to get up from the bed.

Gripping her wrist, Taehyun pulled her back, and as a smirk sat upon his voice, he voiced out, "Normally, you seem really disinterested in my matters, but what's gotten into you today? Are you those possessive girlfriends, who wants to know every little secrets of their boyfriend?"
