Chapter 129: Chapter 129

WONHEE sent a message to Semi that she wouldn’t go home tonight.

It was common courtesy because she was currently living in her older sister’s house.

She knew her message didn’t sound wholesome, but she didn’t elaborate.

And she didn’t wait for any replies and just turned off her phone.

[I’m an adult. They can’t stop me from spending the night elsewhere. It’s enough that I let them know I’m fine.]

Yes, Wonhee decided to set boundaries now.

[I appreciate their concern, but they can’t baby me forever.]

The other thing that worried her was Ahyeon.

[But I’m sure Yool won’t leave Ahyeonnie’s side.]

Wonhee made a mental note to see her friends first thing in the morning.

"So, Captain Lee Jiho informed you that the square-headed villains that attacked you belonged to the Anti-System Faction?"

It was because Yejun’s sinful body was distracting.

He wore his pajama bottom, but not the top.

Well, he wore a black robe– without closing it properly.

So, now, Wonhee was sitting on the bed while having a nice view of Yejun’s chest and six-pack abs.

[This brat is obviously seducing me...]

Wonhee covered her face with her hands.

[I swear I’m not this shallow.]

"Why are you covering your face, Wonhee-ya?" Yejun asked teasingly. "You can look."

"Keep quiet, please."

"That’s the softest "shut up" I’ve heard in my life."

She put down her hands.

It was in time to see Yejun kneeling in front of her. And then he put his arms on her lap and looked up at her with an apologetic look on his face.

[What’s with that look?]

"I’m sorry, Wonhee-ya," Yejun said, his voice full of remorse. "If only I searched for the final boss instead of waiting for it to come out, I wouldn’t have been trapped in the dungeon for days. I’m sorry for being late."

"It wasn’t your fault, Yejun-ah," Wonhee said, patting Yejun on the head because his sad face kind of melted her heart. "And nothing bad happened to me. Ahyeonnie and Hunter Graham protected me. Captain Lee and the Special Forces were kind to me, too."

"Is that so? Then I’ll be polite to Captain Lee from now on."

"Shouldn’t that be your default setting...?"

He just shrugged casually, and then he changed the topic. "Nothing else happened?"

"Well, I already told you about my conversation with Seodam-ssi."

Yejun suddenly beamed.

"What? Why are you smiling like that?"

"I’m relieved that you’re not calling that fake carnivore ’Oppa’ anymore," Yejun said bluntly. "I thought my ears would bleed every time I hear you call him ’Oppa.’"

Wonhee blushed, a little embarrassed after Yejun called her out. "I decided to call him either ’Seodam-ssi’ or ’Hunter Lee’ from now on."

"Good thinking. I won’t get too jealous of the fake carnivore now."

"You were jealous because I call him ’Oppa?’"

"It’s not because of the word itself. I just hate how gentle your voice sounds when you call him that."

"I should have changed the way I call him after we broke up."

"The fake carnivore is older than you, so it’s natural that you chose to call him that way since you wanted to have an amicable relationship with him. You didn’t know that he secretly hated you. But now that you know, you immediately changed the way you address him. You did a good job, Wonhee-ya."

"Thank you, Yejun-ah."

"What else happened?"

"Yool was robbed, but Song Moonho-ssi helped him retrieve his stuff."

She had to keep it simple because she needed to protect Yool’s secret as a Transmigrator.

[His secret is not for me to tell.]

"The S-Grade equipment that you got from Ahn Kisoo-ssi, I returned it to him."

"We needed it to create the potion that would bring back her Guiding abilities," Wonhee said defensively. "If you’re upset about that, then go and find something similar for me. You said you’re gonna spoil me, didn’t you?"

Yejun paused for a moment, and then he grinned. "Yeah, you’re right. I’ll give you all the useful equipment that I have."

"What else happened?"

"I got a role in Ruda-ssi’s debut drama," Wonhee said, half-excited and half-nervous for Yejun’s reaction. "This would be my first villainess role."

Yejun smiled like a villain, his dark orange eyes turning into little crescent moons. "Crush him with your superb acting, Wonhee-ya."

She smiled, relieved that Yejun was being supportive. "I will."

She wanted to report the that somehow influenced Ahyeon’s status level.

But she remembered her encounter Kim Bora.

[I didn’t see her after I came out of the dungeon.]

Now that Wonhee remembered Kim Bora, she felt the urge to pull a prank on Yejun. "I met your ex-girlfriend."

"You met your future self?"

"The only ex-girlfriend I’d have is you, Chu Wonhee– and you’d only become my ex-girlfriend once you become my fiancée."

Wonhee’s brain lagged for a moment.

[That was pretty smooth...]

"You’re getting ahead of yourself, Hwang Yejun," Wonhee said, and then she changed the topic right away. "I met Kim Bora, your former Guide."

Yejun flinched. "Did she bully you?"

"I was actually the one who bullied her."

He looked thrilled for some reason. "Really?"

"I feel bad about it because she’s younger than us, and yet I said mean things to her."

"What did you say to Kim Bora?"

"I told her that you’d still choose to save me over her even though the System and the entire world were there to protect me," Wonhee confessed, ashamed by her pettiness. "That was so petty of me, wasn’t it?"

Yejun blinked, and then he burst out laughing. "That’s so cute of you, Wonhee-ya!"

"GUILDMASTER Hamin told President Kwon Jiwoong to get in Chu Wonhee’s good graces," Ruda said while brewing coffee. "I wonder if Guildmaster Hamin figured out the System’s blatant favoritism towards Chu Wonhee."

He didn’t hear a response, so he raised his head to look at his companion.

Lee Seodam was zipping up his puffer jacket, obviously getting ready to leave Ruda’s apartment.

"Where are you going, Seodam?" Ruda asked, knitting his eyebrows. "Are you going to visit your family at your new house?"

"No," Seodam said indifferently, his eyes a bit colder than usual. "I’m going to meet your uncle at the church, Ruda."
