Chapter 58 - Tell Me

Yu Sheen could feel his whole jaw dropped widely if it wasn't for the good God creating him a strong jaw, he could swear his jaw would have swept the floor due to his shock. He didn't misheard the Head Associate's words, didn't he? He wanted him to be in a team where the predator who could make his blood go cold?! Was he sane? Yu Sheen widened his eyes moved from his teacup to Gwe Jeoknim with a hope that the head associates could read his dire message.

"Although Yu Sheen have just entered the associates for a day, I can assure you he is a good one when it comes to observing and has a bright head." replied Gwe Jeoknim and Yu Sheen felt his feet being sweep off by the praise if it wasn't only for the fact that he was praised to be given off to the pureblood vampire.

He was only assigned to a team but why did he felt as if he was sent to be a sacrifice?

"Tha- thank you for the praise, head associate." Yu Sheen replied knowing well that Jung Hwa piercing gaze are staring at him to seize his whole figure.

"It's not a praise, I have heard directly from the Associate who was to be your examination invigilator of how you ace the written exam." Gwe Jeoknim said and Jung Hwa hummed toward the half vampire in recognition.

Unlike Jung Hwa who came into the Associates directly by the head associate's choice, most of the Associates members have their abilities tested by an examination that was held before they could be accepted. The examinations, in particularly the written exam is created to be the most difficult exam of all time and for a half vampire who was just a human until four months ago, it was a remarkable achievement.

Before Jung Hwa could agree which he prayed to god not to, Yu Sheen opened his mouth, "With all due respect sirs, I just study hard like any other people it was nothing worth to take a note on. As much as I want to aid Mr. Jung Hwa in his team I and still new and have just entered the associates, leaving me to know very little of my job that I don't think I can support him. Also, I believe there are people who are far better than me who could do better than me in aiding Mr. Jung."

"And he is also good in talking." Jung Hwa commented that made Yu Sheen flinched from his place. He thought by talking too much, Jung Hwa would be uninterested but he was wrong!

"What do you think?" asked Gwe Jeoknim to Yu Sheen's eyes the head associates was ready to sacrifice him like a sacrificial lamb. Great God he still want to see the Sun tomorrow and he doubted he would be able to see one tomorrow if Jung Hwa agree!

In a room where his pleadings could not be heard, a sudden fall sounding drum came to his ears when Jung Hwa lazily said, "If he insist. He's good enough."

"Okay. Yu Sheen, do your best." Gwe Jeoknim missed the wideness of Yu Sheen's mouth when he gasped.

When Jung Hwa exited the room leaving the head associate Gwe Jeoknim and Deok Ji Hyeang, he stepped outside for Yu Sheen to follow him discreetly. If he could, he would erase his whole presence which was not possible.

Mustering his courage, Yu Sheen squeezed his question, "Mr. Jung, what should I do to help you?"

"Hmm, I wonder." Jung Hwa said with a smile but Yu Sheen knew well the man was being sarcastic to him. "What kind of job you could do?"

"Cleaning?" Yu Sheen said unsure to see Jung Hwa knitting a frown.

"I didn't know that I brought in a cleaning servant from the head associates." Jung Hwa rolled his eyes at the half vampire. "You know the room assigned for our team don't you?" and Yu Sheen quickly give him a quick nod. "Go and clean the whole room and make sure there would be no spec of dust even at the corner of the room."

Yu Sheen blinked at him. Was that all?

"What are you doing there standing instead of moving on?" said Jung Hwa to the half vampire who looked torn and confused.

"Is that all you need me to work on, Mr. Jung?"

"No." came the tired reply. "Go bring three heads of witches while you do, file all the reports regarding the victims in Myeondong and investigate the families. When you are done clean the room do this all in a count of an hour.

Yu Sheen felt the temperature drop at his words odd perhaps he felt his stomach drop from his words that he later realized slowly that Jung Hwa was being sarcastic about it.

Before Jung Hwa could shoo him off, Yu Sheen dashed off to disappear from the place where Jung Hwa chuckled and folded his hand above his chest. When suddenly, his phone rang from his chest pocket. Taking his phone out, he read the caller's name and immediately placed his phone to his ears.

"Hello, Mr. Jung. I apologized for suddenly calling." her honeyed voice sounded like a melody to his ears. Even when Jung Hwa could not see her face, he could tell her expression by the few words she had uttered.

"What are you apologizing for? I'm happy that you call me, Seoyeon." He chuckled speaking as if it was a great honor, "What's wrong? It's very unusual for me to receive your call."

Han Seoyeon took a moment to mulled for what she had to say. Taking times she then said. "Mr. Jung, I have something to tell you."

"Tell me." he replied quickly with a languid velvety voice where it felt slightly hot to her ears she heard his words from.. Her fingers that was stiff with the worries and anxiousness she had of her best friend who disappeared turned lax when she heard his words, feeling assured even when he hadn't speak too much.
