218 Chapter 212 (1/2)
Late in the afternoon, Yu Zuung came back home.
I shouldn't be sad like this…
Though she kept repeating it, she just felt sad when she imagined Hyunwoo going on a trip with Suji. She wanted to push Suji out of his heart and take her place.
But that was her excessive desire. If she was too greedy, she would make life difficult for everyone without getting anything.
I can find a better man. I have to empty my mind.
She went into her room and turned on the music. It was 'Temptation' with which Hyunwoo planned to make a music video.
She practiced the dance to its tune. Since she came to Korea, she practiced dancing whenever she had free time. She had to cultivate her dancing for the music video.
It was also a task Hyunwoo a.s.signed to her.
At that moment, her cell phone buzzed.
There were not many who called her phone. And most of the calls were from Hyunwoo.
So, she gladly picked up the phone.
Unfortunately, it was not his call but Myunghoon's.
”As you know, Tuti & Angelica is making a great hit thanks to your help. I would like to treat you to dinner.”
Myunghoon spoke in broken English. Though his p.r.o.nunciation was clumsy, his speaking and grammar were okay. It seemed he practiced that before calling her.
She was aware that Jihoon and Myunghoon liked her. They clearly showed far more interest in her than an interest in her as a colleague.
And that was not what she wanted. Though she wanted to mingle with them comfortably, she didn't want to get closer than that.
She felt she needed to show him clearly she was not interested romantically.
”No, thanks. I would like to eat at home.”
”Is it because you have an appointment?”
”Not really. I just feel it's not appropriate to have dinner with you outside.”
She explained to him why she couldn't.
But Myunghoo didn't seem to understand her because she spoke in English. Then, he began to read what appeared to be a prepared sentence in English.
”Then, let's have dinner together. As this is not my house, I have to eat alone, too. Why don't we lonely people get together?”
As a matter of fact, she felt depressed because Hyunwoo was dating Suji.
She felt even sadder while talking with Myunghoon. He seemed to think she was an easy girl he could easily take if he reached out to her.
Tears flew her cheek just like a girl who had her face slapped when she wanted to cry.
”Do you think I am an easy girl?”
Nonetheless, Myunghoon could not understand what she was talking about.
But he seemed to figure out what was happening to her after hearing her soaked voice. As he didn't prepare English sentences for such an unexpected situation, he couldn't say anything properly.
She kept talking to him in English for a while as if she wanted to vent her spite, and then spoke in clumsy Korean, ”Please don't like me. It makes my life hard. Please.”
Only then did he read her mind correctly. He kept saying sorry in a feeble voice.
She spoke in Engish again.

”Let me hang up the phone now. Sorry.”
***
At Ansan Intercity Bus Terminal, a group of seven students bowed to Hyunwoo, ”Goodbye!”
They were the first of a series of tour groups.
They were supposed to travel to Anmyon Island. They would move only by public transportation. They would sleep in tents. Though they would go through hard times, they would learn much more than what they would from staying in modern facilities.
The students were full of ambition. Some of them even said they would rid bikes across the country, but that was too dangerous. They could do that later, but now their safety was more important than gaining experience.
”I can't stress the importance of safety too much. Safety first. If you get hurt during travel, you will be banned from traveling for one year.”
”Don't worry, sir.”
”And listen to your guide.”
”Yes, sir.”
Time was up finally, and they headed for the bus.
Hyunwoo watched the bus leaving the terminal and then came back to the Ani & Funny office, but Myunghoon seemed sullen for some reason.
Come to think of it, he seemed to be in that condition since three days ago. Hyunwoo asked him what's wrong, but he didn't reply.
He asked Yu Zuung and Jihoon next to him, but they didn't know why.
