Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Beauty And Masked Beast Chapter 301 - You Love Me?

If truth was told, Lee Soohyun was very much afraid on it, and she was even reluctant about presenting this idea to Minhyun.

But seeing how confused Minhyun was about the entire thing, those words naturally left her mouth, and she had the nagging urge to help Minhyun with the entire thing. 

She had worked as a spy many times within the company in her last life and even convinced workers to betray their company. Therefore, this was not anything new to her.

Maybe the level of danger this time around was something that was new to her, but over all, this was the same process. Soohyun was confident that at that moment, she was the best person for Minhyun to work on this.

His reluctance and worry was easily noticed by Soohyun, and that made her feel happy. Nonetheless, this raised her will to take part in this. Even if it was by the slightest, she wanted to take the burden off of Han Minhyun.

Moreover, she wanted to prove to the entire clan on how she was not at all useless. Soohyun held a value to them as well, and this feeling felt really invigorating to Soohyun.

After a while, Han Minhyun raised his head to look at Soohyun and voiced out, "I would not be able to change your mind about the entire thing, right?"

Curving her lips to form a wide smile, Soohyun shook her head and said, "No, you have no option but to agree with me."

Those words of Lee Soohyun caused Minhyun to let out a sigh, and he felt guilty. He was aware on how Soohyun was mainly doing it because of him.

Knowing how her character was, he was well aware on how she would be concentrated on hiding from this and not bother herself with all of that. This made guilt stab his heart.

He was supposed to protect her from the danger yet now, he was now directly placing her into a pit full of danger. 

"Han Minhyun, I know what you are thinking at this moment," Soohyun stated, "I can sense your feelings. That's why, please encourage me. You know how much of a coward I am, and this is taking me a lot of courage."

Scrunching his nose up, he said, "If you are that much of a coward, then back away from this."

Extending her hand to her head, she ruffled it and vocalised, "Didn't I promise you that I will be protecting my princess? You are the one who agreed to become my princess, so you are obliged to support me through the entire thing. Now, let's go and buy a disguise for me after lunch."

"So soon?" he asked.

"I will go within a week," Soohyun stated, "Over this period of time, I will learn extra hard with Soobin, and I might even come close to you, Minhyun. One day, I will be surpa.s.sing you, Han Minhyun."

A laughter escaped Soohyun's mouth after she had uttered those words in order to lighten up the atmosphere around her. 

Pus.h.i.+ng his chair back, Han Minhyun stood up, and as he walked over to Soohyun, she raised one of her eyebrows, trying to guess his purpose.

Standing before her, he pulled her into a hug, catching her by surprise for a second, and sensing Minhyun's anxiety, she raised her hand to pat the back of Han Minhyun.

"What is it, My Princess? Are you really that scared?" Soohyun questioned as her voice held a teasing undertone.

His contact made Lee Soohyun's heart beat up rapidly within her chest, and hearing Han Minhyun's quick heart beats distinctly brought shock to her. They were palpitating faster than hers, and this made her wonder on what the reason behind that could be.

Could it be because of how nervous he was about the entire thing or from a different thing?

"Princess, you better calm that heart of yours first. I would not want for you to suffer from a—"

Before Lee Soohyun could continue further, she felt Minhyun's hand on top of her shoulder, and pulling back from the hug, he brought his face closer to hers before swiftly placing his lips on hers.

His sudden action had taken her aback. Nonetheless, seeing how Minhyun had his eyes closed, she shut her eyes and responded to the kiss with equal fervour.

Soohyun could feel how Minhyun was pouring out all of his pain through that kiss; all the pain, anguish, guilt, and care he felt at that moment was shown through that mere kiss.

After he had pulled back from the kiss, he extended his hand to grip her wrist, and bringing it closer to him, he placed it upon his chest.

Through her palm, Soohyun could feel his rapid heart beats. After glancing at her hand, she looked at Minhyun questioningly, waiting for him to say something.

Opening his mouth, Minhyun vocalised, "Lee Soohyun, this is what you cause my heart to be. About the rest part, figure it out on your own."

Before she could properly respond to those words of Han Minhyun, Minnie said, "Ding, dong! You have completed the third part of your mission! As of now, all of your missions are completed successfully! Congratulations!"

Those words of Minnie caused Soohyun to widen her eyes, and at that moment, there was only one thing she could utter, "W-What?"

All of this was too much unbelievable for Soohyun, and she was not able to take in that in this moment. The third part of her mission was to make Minhyun fall for her, and judging with those words from Minhyun, he had fallen for her.

'Isn't it soon for that? Minnie, are you and Minhyun playing this together in order to fool me? The Han Minhyun can't fall this easily for me! This has to be joke! I mean, I did not even do anything to win his love. How could I win his love this easily!? Minnie, help!'

"Y-You love me?" Soohyun managed to voiced out.
