Chapter 176 - Dressing For Halloween

After that session, Soohyun ended up with a couple of scratches on her body. Training in dim lighting was extremely difficult, and she had to rely on her instincts for the most part. The damp surroundings did not make it any better.

Nevertheless, Soohyun could see how this would be helpful for her in the future. Although the scratches burned when water touched them, she knew that she had to take a shower to clean off the dirt.

After that shower was over, Lee Soohyun walked out of the washroom and had a towel around her neck. Her body ached terribly, and she was desperate for a nap.

Seeing Moon Jimin walking towards her, Soohyun could only let out a sigh. After being this exhausted, she was in no mood to coax or trick her sister.

Now that the matters between Chaeyoung and Eunwoo was awkward, there is no need for her to convince Jimin to do anything. Therefore, although the idea which came inside her mind was quite foolish, she decided to apply it.

On a count of three, Soohyun turned her back on Jimin, and using her utmost speed— which was increased due to the training— she ran as if her life depended upon it.

She could hear Jimin's calls for her to stop and come back. Nevertheless, she wasn't in the mood to do so. Maybe if she in the mood later, she could have a talk with Jimin.

It did not take much long for Jimin to give, and realizing that there was no Jimin behind her, a small smile formed on her face. But before Soohyun could stop running, her body b.u.mped into someone.

Losing her stability, Soohyun was about to trip down when someone grabbed her wrist. Finding that touch familiar, she turned her head and raised her line of sight to stare at that person.

"Minhyun-ah!" She enunciated whilst wearing a wide smile on her face, which reached her eyes.

Soohyun did not understand why. However, she knew that a part of her was really happy to have finally seen Minhyun well. 

Soohyun found it weird how she missed Minhyun even though it has not even been twelve hours, and seeing that he was all fine, relief spread through her.

His dark hair laid messily upon his forehead. Nevertheless, this emphasized his attractiveness, and his eyes held a glint whilst they stared upon Soohyun. 

"Where were you?" She questioned.

Her heart began to beat rapidly within her chest whilst a thought about hugging him at this moment appeared in her mind. 

Even though she wanted to hug him, she wasn't sure whether or not he was in the mood to do so. Therefore, she restrained herself.

"There were couple of works that needed by attention. About those scratches on your body, you need to put Band-Aids on them," Minhyun pointed out, "Even if the bleeding stopped, knowing you, you might wound it again or touch it with something that would cause it to burn."

Minhyun's words made joy spread through Soohyun. It showed that he cared, and those simple words were enough to make Soohyun feel various sorts of emotions.

Althour it was weird how one person was able to make her feel all sorts of emotions, she was learning to accept it. Han Minhyun was special indeed.

"Minhyun-ah, I am not a kid, and about the Band-Aids, it would look weird if I put so many of them on my body," Soohyun vocalised.

Shaking his head, Minhyun tightly gripped her hand and pulled her. As Soohyun followed after Han Minhyun, her eyes fell upon his hand, and she followed after him.

"Minhyun, you do realize that I can walk on my own," Soohyun pointed out— tease visible in her voice.

Hearing those words from Soohyun, Minhyun released his grip on her and said, "Then, follow me properly, and don't go off somewhere else."

"Tch! You really me like a kid at times," Soohyun vocalised as Minhyun continued to walk.

Running behind him in order to catch up to him, Soohyun extended her hand to hold his and intertwined her fingers with his. Even though his fingers were icy cold, she enjoyed the feeling of them against hers.

"It's better to walk like this, Minhyun-ah!" Soohyun vocalised.

Han Minhyun gave no reply. However, if one would notice closely, a soft look appeared in his eyes. 

"Yejoon will burst out laughing if he sees me being like this," Soohyun vocalised in a lighthearted manner.

Several Band-Aids sat on her face. Two of the them were placed on her forehead whilst her left cheek had one on it. There was one on her chin, and two Band-Aids were on her right cheek. 

"If I go out like this, someone would think that I am dressing for Halloween," Soohyun commented when Minhyun put the Band-Aid on her knee. That was the last one.

"Can't you sit quietly, Lee Soohyun?" Minhyun questioned whilst he shot her an annoyed glance.

Wearing an innocent expression in her face, Soohyun vocalised, "I thought you knew how I was by now, but this is one of the rare moments of how showing your annoyance. Aish! Where is my phone when I need it desperately?"

"Jihoon would be more than pleased to train you for three extra hours tomorrow," Minhyun vocalised.

Hearing those words from Minhyun, Soohyun's eyes widened, and the smile on her face almost cracked. 

Although she was resolute to train now, it was different matter when overtime was mentioned, especially when it was due to revenge.

"That's abusing your power, Minhyun," Soohyun said, "Don't go down that route with the girls or else they will not like you."

Han Minhyun's lips curved to form a small smirk before he voiced out, "You'd fall for me either way."

Hearing those words from Minhyun made her eyes widen. She never expected such words from Han Minhyun, and a chuckle left her mouth.

"Han Minhyun, do you know that such lines doesn't suit you?" Soohyun asked.
