Chapter 322 - Use the plan against us

Her words caused anger to rise within Kwangsoo, and he slammed his hand on top of the table. His dark eyes glowered at her. 

Those piercing eyes of his had no effect on Soohyun, and folding her hands across her chest, she stared at him with determination visible in her gaze.

"Moon Jiwoo, are you actually treating this like a game of yours? You do know how serious the entire thing is yet this is how you respond to it? You are really disappointing as Han Minhyun's fated one?" Kwangsoo vocalised.

"That is not enough to intimidate me, Lee Kwangsoo. Without you telling me the truth, how can I know that you can be trusted? What if you are the trap? How much of a fool do you take me to be? You actually expect me to blindly follow you?" Soohyun raised one of her eyebrows— her voice being stern.

"Do you have any other choices than this?" he questioned challengingly.

"You are bold to assume that I do not have other choices. I can abandon you all and hide somewhere. Will you be able to find me then?" she said, "This entire thing doesn't concern me in the first place after all."

Her words caused Kwangsoo to let out a sigh as he said, "Fine, I will let you in on the truth. I can't be afford to be as immature as you after all. Yesterday, Minhyun Hyung found the Pureblood contacting someone, and he took that to be suspicious.

Earlier when you ran out of that ballroom, he sent me out with you to follow after you. According to the plans made by the enemy, they wanted to kill all of Minhyun's men, who were responsible for protecting the Pureblood, and say how he was the one behind the recent kidnapping."

"They wanted to use our plan against us?" Soohyun mumbled, "How did they know about the plan though?"

"No clue on that. Maybe Minhyun trusted the wrong Pureblood or they have planted spies around us. Anyway, when they saw you approaching the building, they seemed to have changed their plans and made you want to fall into the trap," Kwangsoo explained, "Predicting that before hand, Hyung sent me to follow you."

"Wait! Since Minhyun knew about it, why didn't he try to stop it? Didn't he get himself into a bigger problem with this?" Soohyun questioned as she raised one of her eyebrows.

"With this, you can safely complete your part of the mission. No one will try to comment on why you're not there anymore, and secondly, the actual betrayer would be feeling much more relaxed with this. 

Minhyun Hyung is currently the most suspicious one, giving the mole enough opportunities to attack. But Hyung had already laid down his traps and is waiting for the mole to fall down in it," Kwangsoo stated.

"Wow! The games in this is extreme. In the way, I wonder who is being actually played? Us or the Blue Clan?" she voiced out.

"I wish I could confidently say it was Blue Clan. For now, we have to prepare to infiltrate into the Blue Clan's headquarters and act as one of their own," Kwangsoo explained.

"Why are you going along with me? This was originally my mission, and I am confident on how I can handle this very well. I do not need you," Soohyun vocalised as she began to eat her food.

"I don't take orders from you. As much as I find it a hassle to follow you, I take orders from Minhyun Hyung only," Kwangsoo stated.

She scoffed and said, "Well, then, don't create any trouble for me. If you make any problems for me, I will be abandoning you there without any second thoughts."

As Kwangsoo's lips curved to form a mocking smile, he arched his eyebrows and spoke out, "That sounds funny coming from you. After all, you are the weak one here and the one needing protection."

"Regardless of that, this plan is mine, and this naturally makes me the leader. You will have to follow my lead, my bodyguard," Soohyun said while a wide smile spread on her face.

"Don't you think I will be turning my back on you if you keep on behaving this hostile and impolite?" he raised one of his eyebrows as amusement crossed in his eyes.

"No, you would not do that. You have some sort of Minhyun complex and would not want to disappoint him," Soohyun pointed out.

"Minhyun complex? You are quite perspective," he commented.

"This is quite visible. Isn't that why you are this adamant on going after me? Too bad, Minhyun's preference doesn't lie in that way or else I would have rooted for you as well," Soohyun vocalised.

He laughed and spoke out, "Well, since both of us had to cooperate together now, I suppose I can look past all of our previous grievances if you are willing to do the same."

"Glad to see that you can be mature. If this is how you react to it, I can't be petty," Soohyun said as she winked at him.

Both of them raised their glasses of blood, and after touching them together, they drank down the content inside it.

After placing down the glass on the table, something hit her head, and she voiced out, "Oh yeah, this slipped out of my mind. What is Minhyun's current state?"

"About that, I have not much clue on that. You do realize that I have escaped along with you, but soon enough, Yejoon might come with the news. It will be hard for that to happen though. He will be under investigation as well for he is close to Minhyun Hyung," Kwangsoo stated.

Then, he added, "He will be fine though. Minhyun Hyung is the King's greatest pawn, and at such a desperate moment, he absolutely would not want to let go of Minhyun. That's why, this will be meticulously done, and unless or until some evidence is found, Hyung would not be harmed.
