The Law of Webnovels Chapter 140

Chapter 140: Chapter 140

.

The yellow light disappeared in a twinkle, and Yoo Chun Young left like that in a flash. It felt a little odd. Feeling his absence, I kind of missed him already. I meant, the fact that Yoo Chun Young was here just until now seemed untrue. Then I turned my head when someone threw a question to me.

“Donnie, was Yoo Chun Young here to see you?”

“Yeah.”

“Did you guys fight? I thought so.”

“Um… no, but…”

“Did you know that you guys tend to quarrel the most?”

“Yeah, I do know that,” replying like that, I laughed out in a small voice.

Ban Yeo Ryung winked at me before tapping my back as if she was comforting me. Ban Yeo Dan, on the other hand, stared at the spot where Yoo Chun Young disappeared before turning to look in this direction as the elevator arrived.

When we entered the elevator, he called Ban Yeo Ryung.

“Yeo Ryung.”

“Yeah, oppa.”

“The boy just now seemed to have his photo on the wall in the boutique earlier.”

“Huh? A photo?”

With my eyes wide opened, I looked at his side and asked, “Whose photo? You mean, Yoo Chun Young?” Ban Yeo Ryung, who was beside me, then nodded.

“Oh, yeah, Yoo Chun Young was also in the photos. I saw it too. You mean that one, right?”

“Come on, what photo was that?”

“His abs were sick.”

“…?”

‘Hold on, what was sick?’ I thought. Ban Yeo Ryung then continued her words.

“You know, abs. Yoo Chun Young was in a photo almost half-naked while showing his abs. He wore a light pink and gray turtleneck sweater. He was showing off his tummy while wearing that, but anyway, he had killing abs. He really had a sick pack on that slim waist. Not gonna lie, it surprised me.”

“Do you have that photo?”

“Nope, but… Oppa! Which brand’s photo was that?”

“Never mind, it’s fine. I’ll just borrow the magazine from my cla.s.smates,” I replied then quietly smiled.

Ban Yeo Dan asked me apathetically from the side, “What are you gonna do with it?”

Before I could reply, I glanced at Ban Yeo Dan’s face. Within the bright elevator, his shaded face looked more like a sculpted masterpiece. His coal-black eyes had a languid pool of aura about them. Though he could never be mine, he was still a national treasure-level kind of handsome.

‘Hmm…’ I frowned. I couldn’t speak honestly while fearing that his view of me would be tarnished. As the prolonged silence continued, Ban Yeo Ryung asked back in suspicion.

“Donnie, last time, you fainted when you saw my brother leaving the bathroom topless. Why do you want to see it then?”

“Um, that was…”

‘I didn’t faint out of surprise. It was because I loved it.’ I suppressed myself from saying what was honestly in my mind.

Since I didn’t respond for a while, Ban Yeo Ryung shook my arm, whereas Ban Yeo Dan looked as if he didn’t care about it that much. Except for his sister, he usually had no interest in everything at all.

When I returned home, I quickly laid myself on the bed before taking out my phone. I sent a text.

To: Lee Mina

Mina~ Do you have a magazine featuring Yoo Chun Young? lol I heard there’s a good photo of him

Within a few seconds, she texted back. I smiled in satisfaction when I opened the flip phone.

To: Lee Mina

Ho ho ho So excited

I closed the flip phone with a smile. Yoo Chun Young was Yoo Chun Young, and abs were abs. That day I didn’t have any nightmares or outlandish dreams. I slept in peace after a long time.

The next day, I bid farewell to Ban Yeo Ryung and pulled out my slipper from the shoe rack. When I put those on and trudged into my cla.s.sroom, I felt that the airflow was a bit off. Today, I went to school quite later than usual, so the cla.s.s looked kind of packed.

I sensed some malicious attention and whispers following behind me. Though it wouldn’t be something ill-intentioned, a few girls looked at me with eyes full of suspicions. I then furrowed my brow. There couldn’t be anything wrong with my intuition since I was used to distinguis.h.i.+ng this kind of attention. No, I got used to it by the time I befriended Ban Yeo Ryung.

I placed my bag onto my desk first. s.h.i.+n Suh Hyun, Kim Hye Woo, and a few boys who were sitting beside me greeted me apathetically. When I saw Yoon Jung In, I noticed that he was having a fun conversation with a few boys near the locker.

The group of boys seemed to be talking about something different; besides, boys wouldn’t intervene with girls’ things. The weird air surrounding me was, therefore, revolving around the girls. s.h.i.+n Suh Hyun and Kim Hye Woo glanced at me as if they were about to tell me something; however, they didn’t say anything. They probably thought that it was not the right time to say it.

I clenched and opened my fist as I sat. Yi Ruda then spoke to me as he walked past me.

“Hi.”

“Hey.”

Her voice sounded sweeter than usual. Just by listening to her voice, I already knew that whatever happened to us felt like a lie. ‘Did nothing really happen?’ I thought.

Yi Ruda, however, bent her kind blue eyes before sitting. She would always smile, but today she looked more delighted than usual. ‘Does she know about what happened to me? Maybe there’s just something good going on with her?’ That was when I stared at the back of her blonde hair with a complicated gaze.

Kim Hye Hill, Lee Mina, and a few girls walked toward me. I was also waiting for them to come over. If they confronted me, I would, at least, explain my side, but fortunately, they didn’t show any signs of hostility. It was just Kim Hye Hill, who slightly frowned her blue-black eyes while scowling at another girl.

The girl who had her attention was the one called Lee Soo Yeon. She was the one who initiated a conversation when Ruda confessed that she had a crush on me at the beginning of the semester. She asked me for the numbers of the Four Heavenly Kings too. When I refused, she quibbled over the reason for my denial with teary eyes. The girl who had s.h.i.+ny polished nails? That was her, Lee Soo Yeon.

I didn’t completely understand the overall situation yet; however, I, at least, knew who was in the center of the malicious airflow around me. Lee Soo Yeon, it was her.

“Donnie, let’s just go outside for a second,” Kim Hye Hill said.

Maybe she wanted to tell me that speaking about the overall situation out loud wouldn’t be appropriate since there were boys around. s.h.i.+n Suh Hyun and Kim Hye Woo glanced at my direction with concerned eyes. I then nodded.

Anyway, I should, at least, listen to what was going on to solve the situation. For as long as I could remember, I didn’t do anything wrong. If it was about the Four Heavenly Kings, well… That was when I furrowed my brow. It was true that I pretended not to be close to them.

However, if that was the reason behind it, then only those who admired the Four Heavenly Kings enthusiastically should have sent me those malicious gazes. However, from what I could gather, even Kim Hye Hill and Lee Mina seemed to be concerned about me, so that couldn’t be the reason.

That was when I tried to stand up and agree to Kim Hye Hill. Lee Soo Yeon, who was talking about something with the girls with crossed arms while leaning on the bookshelf on the wall, suddenly walked toward me.

She then pushed herself through Kim Hye Hill and Lee Mina. Lee Mina simply went over to me and showed a twisted smile on her face. She then spoke to me while knitting her brows.

“Hey, you’re so ridiculous!”

She had a high tone and sharp voice, and the boys in our cla.s.s would often talk behind her back about how loud her voice was when she wasn’t in the cla.s.sroom. As soon as Lee Soo Yeon said that, everyone’s eyes were suddenly directed towards me.

Her voice was so clear that Yoon Jung In, who was speaking noisily in the back, also stopped talking. He then looked at us in wonder. Both my brows met in the middle.

‘What’s wrong with you? If you had something to say, then we could have talked outside the cla.s.sroom. Why is she also drawing attention from those who have nothing to do with us?’

Since Yoon Jung In also paused his words, a heavy silence enveloped us; it was something that didn’t match the atmosphere of a cla.s.sroom filled with bright sunlight. The attention poured towards me was burdensome, but Lee Soo Yeon was somewhat confident.
