Chapter 408: Not Going To Bite.

Eun-sun realized she had more than her punishment for defying Dan-Han’s instructions to worry about when she saw her slightly swollen wrist. She had punched that guy with so much force she had forgotten she hadn’t done that in a long time.

Since she met Dan-Han she hadn’t been physically violent with anyone, except the times she had given In-Ha terrible shoulder flips, and even that couldn’t count. She hasn’t fought anybody, as Dan-Han had never given her the opportunity to do so, and she was sure had he been here tonight, he’d never had let her take a swing at that guy.

Her hands quavered as she picked up the glass of wine Ni-Na has once again poured for her. She knew she shouldn’t be adding drunkness to her already filled pile of trouble, thanks to Ni-Na, but she couldn’t help herself.

“This isn’t going to help us.” Eun-sun pointed out even as she gulped down the content of the glass. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ NovᴇlFir(e).nᴇt

Ni-Na nodded in agreement. “It isn’t, but it will buy us some time, and it would set you in the right mood.” She told her as she nervously gulped down her glass and poured whatever was left on the bottle In-Ha had ordered onto Eun-sun’s glass. Eun-sun has barely sipped from it when In-Ha returned and deftly snatched it away from her.

“Okay, that’s enough!” He drawled at her, ignoring the irritated look her eyes darted to him. His eyes widened when he picked up the bottle and discovered it was empty. He looked at them with incredulity as he didn’t know what to say. He had briefly left to get ice for her hand and this is what he meets? He looked at them and observed their flushed cheeks.

“Being drunk isn’t going to save either of you from Dan-Han’s wrath. He’d still kill you even if you broke your skull right now.” He told her matter of factly.

.....

“That’s not true. Dan-Han isn’t like that.” Eun-sun said in Dan-Han’s defense. In-Ha looked at her in disbelief and he scoffed. “And just so you know, I’m not trying to get drunk. We’re just trying to braze ourselves for what’s coming way tonight.” She told him repeating exactly what Ni-Na had said.

In-Ha would have believed her if he couldn’t see how flushed her cheek was at the moment indicating she was drunk. He couldn’t help but chuckle when he saw Ni-Na tipsily bobbing her head in agreement to what Eun-sun had said. This again was also her idea. This little brat was always so persuasive, and it’d take Eun-sun a while to break out of her charms.

He watched as Ni-Na lolled back on the sofa they were currently seated. She was suddenly acting tamed and he was sure it solely wasn’t because of the alcohol, but more to fear of Dan-han.

In-Ha had taken them back to his table he had solely been enjoying at the VIP lounge where he had earlier spotted them before jumping to their rescue.

He had indulged Ni-Na in having one more glass as she had pleaded. He knew she wouldn’t stop until she had her way and he had obliged, but who knew they’d both gulp down the whole bottle out of fear and anxiety the moment he stepped to get ice for Eun-sun’s hand.

“This is your own doing, no one else.” In-Ha said and plopped down beside Eun-sun. He stretched out his hand and Eun-sun slipped her hand into his knowing that was what he needed her to do. He placed the ice on her hand and Eun-sun winced at the coldness.

“My brother is going to kill me isn’t he?” Ni-Na asked when she saw Eun-sun’s hand. She was certain he was going to make do of his promise of throwing her off his plane. “He’s going to throw me out his plane and confiscate my card.” She dramatically cried out.

Eun-sun chuckled amusedly when she saw her like that. Who could guess Ni-Na knew what fear was? She had been confident moment ago of getting away unscathed, so what happened now?

She smiled when she saw her pale with worry. It seems she was really shaken by the incident with her hand. She hadn’t scripted that part in her plot. “Don’t worry, he won’t scold you. I’ll tell him not to.” Eun-sun assured making In-Ha scoff. He amusedly looked at her. She really didn’t know who she was dating, did she? She wouldn’t be able to save herself, yet here she was assuring someone of their own safety.

In-Ha knew she was scared out of her shit jus to as Ni-Na was, and it was just the alcohol tipping up her morale.

Eun-sun tried to pick up her phone and look at the time but In-Ha stopped her. “Stay still. Let’s get this done before Dan-Han gets here.” He said, but the moment those words rolled out of his lips Eun-sun’s back stiffened and so did Ni-Na as they both looked at him. “He’s on his way here.” He added when he saw the silent question twirling in their eyes.

“You called him?” Eun-sun asked in horror and he nodded.

“Yes.” Her spine steeled at his response, while Ni-Na felt cold sweat break out her forehead as she listlessly sunk into the seat.

“You asshole!” Eun-sun cussed at In-Ha as she picked up her purse and slugged his arm with it. She hastily dashed to her feet making her almost losing her balance but In-Ha’s hand deftly held her up.

Eun-sun stabilized herself and nudged his hand off even though she could feel the earth slightly spin beneath her.

She looked at Ni-Na who seemed more afraid than drunk. Her eyes darted to the bottle on and she wondered what exactly they had drank. They both haven’t had more than 3 glasses each but she felt like she was going to fall over, but she can’t. She had drank way more than this in times past, so she could manage. She had to get to the room before Dan-Han did else she was done for.

“Her keycard is in her purse. Bring her up.” She hurriedly told In-Ha as she began to make her way towards the main floor of the club where people were still dancing. She knew she couldn’t exert too much energy on her legs or move too fast, but right now she couldn’t care.

“Wait!” In-Ha called after her, but she was already limping through a throng of people. She was still as stubborn as the first time he’d met her.

In-Ha feared she wouldn’t make it without falling. He turned towards the pretentious monster trying to merge with the couch as if that would save her. “Come on,” He grunt and picked her up in his arms. He felt her body stiffen and he lowered his head to see her looking at her.

“I’m not going to bite you, kiddo. I’ve carried you more times than I can remember.” He told her, but Ni-Na tried to scowl at him to hide her embarrassment but she was failing miserably at him. She turned her face away.

Seeing the look she was desperately trying to tuck from her face, In-Ha also became conscious of his actions. His arms suddenly felt the difference in the lady he was carrying now and the little girl he always carried in the past.

He awkwardly cleared his throat. “Just stay still.” He said in a weird tone.

“I’m not scared of you. After all you’re too blind,” and caught up in someone else’s space, she added in her head. In-Ha raised a confused brow at her, but he dismissed with a sigh when he didn’t understand the latter part of her word. It would be crazy on his own part to try to understand the crazy words of Lee Ni-Na.

In-Ha amusedly chuckled when he saw Eun-sun hurriedly try to make her way towards the elevator, as she used the wall for support. Despite how fast she tried to move, he doubted she’d make it before Dan-Han.

He paused on his tracks when he suddenly felt a shift in the atmosphere, and he spot Eun-sun halt on her stride as she stiffened and took a step back from the elevator which doors had just opened. Read Web Novels Online Free - NovelFire Novel Fire - novelfire.net

Ni-Na equally adjusted in his hands when she spot the pair of long legs that stepped out of the elevator. It was Dan-Han.

“Uh oh. We’re so dead. Shit!” Ni-Na cussed under her breath.

Eun-sun’s breath hitched when the doors of the elevator opened and revealed the man standing inside. Her heart skipped when she saw the cold look in his eyes. She didn’t need to be told twice that she was done for.

She desperately racked her brain for what to do, but nothing could pop except to smile at him.

“Baby,” She chirped with a smile which quickly wavered but she struggled to keep a hold on it, when Dan-Han maintained the steel look on his face.

He turned to Ni-Na who quickly turned away and buried her face in In-Ha’s arms and his face hardened even more.

He glanced back at Eun-sun and motioned a finger to her. “Come here.” He ordered.

Hey, lovelies.

I want to say sorry for the wrong uploads in the last three days. I had the chapters automatically scheduled for upload as I was unavailable to personally upload them. I can barely explain what happened, maybe I’m still yet to wrap my head around the automatic upload thing or maybe the network messed things up, I’m still at a loss, but all chaps got missed up.

I tried rectifying it, but I lost some drafts. I had to rewrite some of them, and I’m currently still doing so. Few chaps from my other book remained

I’m deeply sorry for the mishap. It really wasn’t intentional. I hope I’ll be able to fix this as soon as I can, because I haven’t been able to sleep since I noticed it yesterday.

Thanks for your understanding.
