"This is part of his charms, Jeon Minhyuk. No wonder girls avoid you," A woman vocalised.
Sitting on an old couch was a woman who appeared to be at late twenties. Dressed in a low cut red dress, the beautiful woman walked towards his desk and sat on top of his. Her long hair laid on top of her shoulder, and her plump lips were painted red.
Jeon Minhyuk scoffed and said, "Nice to know that you're one of his admirers, Park Jieun."
Park Jieun shrugged her shoulders and voiced out, "All of us prefer the charming ones better than the dull ones like you."
"Hey! What did you just say!? Take back those words of yours!" Minhyuk exclaimed.
Wearing a bored expression on his face, Eunwoo walked towards the direction the elevator which was present at one corner of the room and clicked the switch. As the door opened, he stepped into it.
"Good luck, Ahn Eunwoo! You're going to need that!" Jieun voiced out.
As the door closed, a blank expression sat on his face, and one couldn't easily see what he was truly thinking from the deep look in his eyes. As the elevator went down, he licked his lips and checked the time on his watch.
After couple of seconds, the elevator came to a halt, and the door in front of him gradually opened. Stepping into the room, Eunwoo brushed his hand through his hair.
There was nothing beside him, and walking towards the door in front of him, Eunwoo turned the k.n.o.b. Pulling open the door, he walked into the room.
A large desk laid on the room in front of him, and behind that desk was seated a man, who wore a grim expression on his face. Beside that man stood Jung Beomsoo, and seeing him, Eunwoo had a clear idea on why he was called here.
"What do you need, Ahn Hyunbin?" Eunwoo questioned. His tone showing how bored he was.
"Is this the att.i.tude you can show after your irresponsible behaviour, Ahn Eunwoo?" Beomsoo voiced out, "Your behaviour truly shows how you belong—"
"Don't interfere," Eunwoo ordered whilst he shot a glance towards Beomsoo. Eunwoo's eyes made a chill go down Beomsoo's spine, making him unable to complete the sentence further.
"Ahn Eunwoo, what excuse do you have for not helping Beomsoo?" Hyunbin asked.
"What excuse? It is definitely because of—"
"Jung Beomsoo, if you dare to complete that sentence, then," Eunwoo vocalised threateningly.
"Beomsoo, don't say anything," Hyunbin said, and then looking towards Eunwoo, he stated, "Answer."
"Just because Beomsoo wanted to confront Minhyun like an idiot despite of knowing how weak he was doesn't mean I have to support him," Eunwoo said, "I am not his lackey either and have my own plans. If that's all, then I am leaving."
With a bow, Eunwoo turned his back on Hyunbin, and as he walked towards the door, Beomsoo was angered by his att.i.tude.
"A leopard never changes it spots. Who knows when—"
Before Jung Beomsoo could continue, Eunwoo turned his head to look back at him, and Beomsoo's eyes widened when a sharp metal sc.r.a.ped past by his neck. The metal was embedded into the wall beside him, and blood stained the metal.
Feeling the sharp pain go through his neck, Beomsoo raised his hand to touch the area where it hurt, and looking towsrds Eunwoo, Beomsoo's eyes glared upon him. Eunwoo could notice the fear in Beomsoo's eyes.
"Think before you speak next time; My shot might not be this clumsy next time," Eunwoo voiced out— his tone threatening Beomsoo and imprinting fear into him.
Jung Beomsoo understood what Eunwoo was trying to mean, and he tightly clenched his hand. Eunwoo was not afraid of Hyunbin, and Hyunbin treasured Eunwoo. It was better for Beomsoo to be obedient at this point.
"Eunwoo, I need to talk to you," Hyunbin vocalised, "Beomsoo, go out."
Although Beomsoo wanted to stay here and see what will be happening, he knew that abiding by the orders in the best option for him now. Nodding, Beoms...o...b..wed and walked towards the direction of the door.
After shooting a glance towards Eunwoo, Beomsoo pulled open the door and walked out of the room whilst closing the door behind him.
Anger became visible on Hyunbin's face at that moment, and as he stood up, the chair behind him was pushed back. As he walked towards Eunwoo, his eyes glowered upon Eunwoo. Nonetheless, Eunwoo appeared unaffected by them.
As he stood in front of Eunwoo, he raised his hand and planted a slap upon Eunwoo's cheek. The loud sound spread through the room. Despite that, there was no change in Eunwoo's expression.
Blood formed at the corner of his lips as Hyunbin grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled Eunwoo closer to him. Pulling his hand into a fist, Hyunbin punched Eunwoo with all of his might. His t-shirt crumbled at the intensity of the hit.
Like a doll, Eunwoo endured all the attacks which were targeted towards him. Punches came towards him one after another, and no groan of pain left his mouth as if Eunwoo was all used to it. Eunwoo did not flinch nor did his eyes show a change of expression.
Raising Eunwoo by his collar, Hyunbin pushed him towards the wall. As Eunwoo's back touched the wall, a loud sound was created, and looking up, Eunwoo's eyes stared straight at Hyunbin.
"You have gotten stronger. I remember the little you crying and pleading for me to stop and agreeing to whatever I said just due to slight beating. Now, you're not even affected," Hyunbin vocalised.
Wiping the corner of his lips, Eunwoo asked, "Arw you done?"
As Eunwoo attempted to straighten the folds on his t-shirt with his hand, Hyunbin sternly said, "You wouldn't be spared this easily if someone doubts you next time around, and finish your mission quickly. You surely don't want to make me regret choosing you."
Eunwoo nodded.
"About Han Minhyun, according to our source, he had strengthened the barrier around the mansion, and you'll try to penetrate through it in order to weaken it," Hyunbin voiced out.
Lowering his head, Eunwoo nodded and said, "Call me when you need me to do that. I have to practice my skills I haven't used them for a while."
