Since s.h.i.+n Woojin appeared to be busy, Lee Soohyun thought that it wouldn"t be polite to disturb him. Therefore, after looking around the kitchen for a while, she found the ingredients she needed, and luckily enough, there was a packet of instant noodles.

Wearing a smile on her face, Lee Soohyun cooked instant noodles for herself, and as she was about to place the noodles on to the bowl, she noticed a presence beside her.

Turning her head towards the right, Soohyun noticed that Kim Junghyun was standing beside her, and arrogance sat upon his face. His hands were shoved into his pockets, and his hair was messed up as usual.

"Cook one for me," Kim Junghyun ordered.

As much as Lee Soohyun wanted to tease him, she did not want to press his wrong b.u.t.ton and suffer at his hands. It was better to silently cook for him and get him to leave her alone.

"What would you prefer with your instant noodles?" Lee Soohyun questioned.

Kim Junghyun"s stomach groaned at that moment, and a light pink blush coloured his cheeks. Kim Junghyun pulled away the bowl from Lee Soohyun"s hands, taking her aback, and Lee Soohyun raised one of her eyebrows at him.

"You can cook another one for you. This is mine," Kim Junghyun voiced out haughtily whilst holding on to the bowl of instant noodles.

"If you want it, sure, have it, little— Kim Junghyun," Lee Soohyun voiced out.

Fortunately, she stopped her mouth from running before she called the boy "Little Kid" again. Facing the boy"s hostility was not something Lee Soohyun wanted at this moment. She wanted to finish eating the food quickly, so that she could go back to the room and read the book.

"I did not ask for your permission," Junghyun voiced out.

Without a word of "thanks" to Lee Soohyun, Kim Junghyun turned his back on Lee Soohyun and walked towards the direction of the dining table. Lee Soohyun let out a breath of relief.

As Lee Soohyun cooked herself the second bowl of instant noodles, Kim Junghyun appeared into the kitchen and grabbed that bowl of noodles from Lee Soohyun. Soohyun"s eyes widened at the boy"s action. Did he want to eat this bowl as well?

"Cook another one for you," Junghyun ordered.

Lee Soohyun raised one of her eyebrows at the male. Kim Junghyun did not want to admit that Soohyun"s noodles tasted absolutely delicious to him, and he craved for another bowl for it. That would be too humiliating!

"You want to have two bowls of noodles?" Lee Soohyun asked.

"I need to grow up fast, so I need more food," Kim Junghyun voiced out before turning his back on Lee Soohyun and walking out of the room. 

Soohyun just sighed as she watched his furthering back. 

"As long as he does not attack me, I think it"s fine. I don"t pick fights with the kids in the first place."

Moon Jimin stepped into the restaurant the four of them— Jiwoo, Eunwoo, Chaeyoung, and her— were planning to meet at. A gentle smile sat upon her face, and her soft expression stirred the hearts of many men present there. Nonetheless, none of these men were the one Jimin was genuinely interested in.

Seeing Ahn Eunwoo and Oh Chaeyoung being absorbed in their own world made anger rise within Moon Jimin. Nevertheless, Jimin did not let that appear on her face as she walked towards the couple.

Wearing a smiling and friendly expression, Moon Jimin pulled the chair back and sat upon it. Finally noticing Moon Jimin"s presence, the couple turned towards Moon Jimin.

"It"s been a while, Eunwoo-ah!" Moon Jimin commented.

She then asked, "How have the both of you been?"

Ahn Eunwoo curved his lips into a smile and said, "I have been fine."

"Me as well, Jimin Unnie. How are you?" Chaeyoung spoke out.

"I"m doing well. It seems that both of you have a lovely relations.h.i.+p," Jimin voiced out.

A blush formed on Chaeyoung"s face, and shyly, she turned to look at the other way. Jimin let out a harmless chuckle at that whilst Eunwoo"s smile became wider.

Then, Moon Jimin let out a sigh. She looked down upon her lap whilst a sorrowful expression was placed on her face. Normally, one would not judge the genuineness in Jimin"s appearance.

"I feel really apologetic for my sister and her actions. Jiwoo was not always like this. I don"t know what happened to her all of a sudden," Moon Jimin stated— sadness noticeable in her tone.

Moon Jimin continued, "Although it took me a lot of effort, I managed to convince Jiwoo to come here. Chaeyoung, it must be hard on you. I apologise for the inconvenience. I"m really sorry."

Oh Chaeyoung let out an awkward smile and said, "You don"t need to apologise. It"s not your fault. Since Eunwoo was once her fiancée and someone she truly loved, it is understandable if she holds a grudge against me."

Hints of anger was visible on Ahn Eunwoo"s eyes, and placing his hand above Chaeyoung"s hand— which was on top of the table— Eunwoo attempted to comfort the girl he loved. The action didn"t escape Moon Jimin"s eyes, and the rage within Moon Jimin intensified. Controlling herself, Moon Jimin did not glare at Oh Chaeyoung.

"Don"t say that, Chaeyoung-ah. I"ll make sure that you"re protected from all the harm out there, and as for Moon Jiwoo, she is nothing compared to you," Eunwoo voiced out.

Moon Jimin noticed the ruthlessness in Eunwoo"s eyes. Seeing how protective and caring Eunwoo was towards Chaeyoung, envy rose within Chaeyoung, and she gripped onto her skirt.

"Thank you, Eunwoo Oppa. With you beside me, I"m not scared of anything," Chaeyoung voiced out with a wide smile on her face.

Then turning to face Moon Jimin, Chaeyoung asked, "When will Jiwoo Unnie be reaching here though? I have an important test tomorrow and have to return home early for studying."

Letting out an awkward chuckle, Moon Jimin glanced at her watch and realized that five minutes had already pa.s.sed from their designated time.

"She called me earlier and said that there was a traffic jam. That"s why it will be taking her some time to reach here," Jimin lied.
