Chapter 167 - The prank gone too far [1]

Moon Jiwoo was met with utter surprise when two familiar voices reached into her ear.

Seeing how she had some extra work to do, Jiwoo went to the shop early that day, and upon her arrival, she did not expect for anyone to be inside of this place for it was quite early. 

Moreover, she was aware of the time Sookyung arrived at regularly.

That's why, she was shocked when she heard voices inside of one of the room inside the shop, and having her curiosity take the best of her, she decided to eavesdrop on the conversation.

Usually, Moon Jiwoo wasn't fond of eavesdropping on other's conversation, but seeing how the other party was Oh Sookyung, the temptation was too strong for her to resist.

Therefore, mustering up all of her courage, she made sure to create almost no noise— knowing how sėnsɨtɨvė those ears of Sookyung were— and leaned closer to the door. 

As her ear came in contact with the surface of the door, she tried to listen in on the conversation between both of them.

"What are you doing here?" Sookyung asked— his voice held on to some tint of annoyance.

"I just wanted to meet up with her and see how you are torturing the poor girl," a female voice spoke out.

She recognized that voice as Chaeyoung's. Compared to her last life, Chaeyoung indeed did sound different right now. She had a hint of innocence to her and did not appear to be anything special. 

But now that she had met her again after being in this body, she found the lady being quite charismatic to her surprise, and she wondered why she was hiding behind that facade.

"Geez! You are going to ruin all of my plans with your appearance. Already it is starting to get harder for me, and I don't want you to destroy all that for me," Sookyung vocalised.

Creases appeared between both of her eyebrows, and Moon Jiwoo was curious to know about the so-called plan of the male who was on the other side of the door. 

Since the plan concerned her mainly, she made sure to hear all of the next words properly so that she would be able to get a clue on it.

Maybe she wasn't smart enough to figure out all of it, but at least she was trying. Pursing her lips into a thin line, she waited for the two person present inside the room to start talking.

Chaeyoung seemed to have let out a sigh before saying, "I don't even know how much longer you are going to continue that silly plan of yours. If you continue it much further, just be careful. She might end up running away from you."

"Even I wanted to stop, but I can't do that," Sookyung stated before starting to laugh. "You should see how funny she is all the time I bully her. No, she changed so much that it is funny to see.

It's more like she did not change but is trying to be like the normal people. I have seen her get along with those people, and it is hilarious to see how she tries to act like an ȧduŀt.

I swear she is so cute. How can I just stop being like this when she is so much fun? Moreover, this might is the only time I might get to boss her around. Who knows if I will be blessed with such a chance again?

It's funny how she manages to treat me like her boss until now when her facial expression gives it all away. She is seriously foolish."

Laughter escaped from Oh Sookyung's mouth after those words.

Hearing those words have managed to make the girl angry, and Moon Jiwoo clenched her hand into a tight fist. She was starting to have mixed feelings about the entire matter.

A part of her happy was that Oh Sookyung was not actually angry with her, that those cold eyes of his was merely an act; he was just playing around with her.

But a bigger part of her aggravated. Her pride had been terribly hurt. Being played around like this managed to break the last amount of self control she had, and there was no way she was about to hold back this time around.

If she entered the room right now, she believed that she would be gripping his neck and trying to kill him. That's how angry she felt right now.

She couldn't believe that he was having fun while she was suffering through the entire time. While she was completely nervous, he enjoyed her reactions.

Although she shouldn't feel happy with the male in this situation, that's exactly the emotion that went through the girl. She was more or less content with the fact that he was able to look through her; this just showed to her how observant to her.

Nonetheless, this wasn't enough to calm down the anger that formed within her. She wanted to do something in order to take out all of this anger within her, and that's when, an idea came inside her mind.

There was no way she was going to let herself be treated with a joke this easily!

Taking in a deep breath, she walked over to the shelves where plants were kept. Her plans weren't anything wicked and it was rather childish.

But since she did not grow up in Sookyung's eyes, she was not hesitant in carrying out that plan. If she was still immature in his eyes, then that's how she was going to act.

Glaring hard at the shelf before her, she raised the flower pots and started to throw them towards the ground. While they hit the ground, they shattered creating a loud noise, and the soil spread through the entire place.

But that wasn't the last of it. She started to throw around everything inside of the place in order to let out her anger. 

No matter what the consequences of today's actions were, there was no way she was going to leave before destroying the entire place. She hoped that Sookyung would be having a hard time cleaning up the place once she left from here.

The noises created soon alerted both of the person inside of the room, and it did not take much time for them to appear where Moon Jiwoo was. 

Then, lifting up a flower pot, she turned back and her eyes glared at Oh Sookyung who was before her. Her attention on Sookyung was strong to the point she failed to notice Chaeyoung who beside the male.

"You son of a bitch, shall I throw this at your head or not? No, why am I asking for your opinion because no matter what your words are, I am going to throw this at you! I never thought that you would be this much of a jerk!

Seeing your face right now disgusts me! Do you know how much I want to kill you? Wow! I was trying to be actually amiable with you, and what did you do? You played around with me?

Yeah, maybe I did something horrible to you back then. But did you have to do this? I honestly can't believe that I loved a guy like you once!"

Oh Sookyung was shocked by her sudden outburst of words, and before he was able to say anything, she disappeared from that spot.

Moon Jiwoo did not think that she would be able to stay at that place after all that had happened. She was currently quite embarrassed, and in such a state, she might end up hurting Sookyung with her words by saying things she did not mean.

Although she was angry at him, it did not mean that she wanted him to be in pain because of words she did not mean. She did not believe that she would be able to go that far to hurt the man.

Before Moon Jiwoo was able to disappear into the thin air, On Sookyung did not fail to notice the tears at the corner of her eyes, and at the sight of that, his ċhėst clenched painfully.

"Good luck with that," Chaeyoung voiced out, "It doesn't seem as if she was happy with how things are and judging by the state of things, it might take you long to handle the matters. You are regretting it, right?"

Wearing a smile on his face, Oh Sookyung turned his head to face Chaeyoung, and winking at the girl, he cheerfully stated, "No, I have perfect ways to win back her heart!"
