Chapter 99: The Second S-Rank Talent 2
Lee Junghoon was quite a heavy smoker.
After coming out of the club, Lee Junghoon glanced at Min Gahee and broached the subject of smoking. Min Gahee said she didn't smoke herself, but since her friend did, she didn't really mind.
Lee Junghoon's face brightened as he said.
"Juhwan, I'll go smoke a cigarette for a bit and come back."
"Yeah. Go ahead. I'll wait here."
They were waiting for Min Gahee's friend. It had been about five minutes since they contacted her.
After waiting for a bit, a woman in a black off-shoulder top and a tight skirt came out. She had come out in a hurry without even putting on an outer garment.
Min Gahee waved her hands enthusiastically.
"Seulgi! Over here, over here!"
"Ah, Min Gahee! You!"
The woman called Seulgi approached Min Gahee with big strides and smacked her on the crown of her head. The sound was quite loud—smack! It rang out.
Min Gahee cried out in pain as if screaming and grabbed her head.
"It hurts! Why are you hitting me!"
"Why am I hitting you? Why did I hit you?!"
But the woman's momentum was even more frightening than that.
Min Gahee, completely scared, immediately raised the white flag.
"I, I'm sorry. I don't know what I did, but I was wrong..."
"You don't know! Why! You deserve another hit!"
"Eeek! Oppa, save me!"
Min Gahee screamed and hid behind him.
The woman, still intimidating, chased after her but stopped right in front of Seo Juhwan.
Caught off guard, Seo Juhwan couldn't hide his confusion and said.
"Huh? Uh? I, I don't know what's going on, but please calm down first."
"Sigh."
Fortunately, the woman didn't say anything to Seo Juhwan. She just let out a deep sigh and glared at Min Gahee, who was peeking her face out from behind his back, and said.
"Min Gahee, come out while I'm asking nicely."
"...Are you going to hit me?"
"I'm fucking going to hit you!"
"Eeek! I'm not coming out!"
"I'm serious!"
The woman tried to grab Min Gahee, and Min Gahee, not wanting to be caught, grabbed Seo Juhwan from behind and spun around in circles.
With this farce unfolding on the street in front of the club, it was natural that attention gathered.
It was when Seo Juhwan thought he should stop both of them out of embarrassment.
"Huh? Seulgi? Yoon Seulgi, right?"
Lee Junghoon, who had been smoking a little distance away and was returning, pretended to know the woman.
Yoon Seulgi, who had been spinning around trying to grab Min Gahee, stopped in place and, seeing Lee Junghoon, made a surprised sound.
"Huh? You from the club earlier!"
"Wow. So Seulgi was Gahee's friend?"
"Huh? Then is this person the one who wasn't answering the phone?"
Yoon Seulgi finally lowered her fists and looked up at Seo Juhwan. From the situation playing out, she could guess what happened. This was one of the women they had missed earlier.
Seo Juhwan awkwardly smiled and greeted her.
"Um... nice to meet you. I'm Seo Juhwan."
"Ah. Oh my, look at me. I'm sorry. When I get angry, I can't see anything. I'm Yoon Seulgi, Gahee's friend."
Yoon Seulgi, her face flushed with embarrassment, quickly introduced herself.
As they were exchanging greetings, Min Gahee, who had been behind him, poked her head out and said.
"...You're not going to hit me anymore?"
She really wanted to hit her one more time...
Somehow, he was beginning to understand why Yoon Seulgi couldn't help herself.

The four of them moved to a bar that Lee Junghoon had guided them to. The bar was in a sealed room format, so it looked good for making noise and having fun.
After settling in, Min Gahee was being grabbed by Yoon Seulgi and tickled.
"Kyahahaha! P, please stop! Ahhh! Seulgi!"
"Say you're sorry, didn't you!"
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"
When asked why she was so angry, it turned out that Min Gahee, who had been with her in the Electronic Zone, said she was going to the bathroom and then didn't show her face for nearly an hour.
She was enjoying the hip hop performance and didn't even answer calls, and then called later saying to come out and have fun together.
For Yoon Seulgi, who had been searching for her for so long, there was no choice but to be angry.
Min Gahee, who had been tickled to the point of almost losing consciousness, laughed herself tired and leaned against the wall, breathing heavily. Every time she gasped, her moving chest naturally captured everyone's attention.
After punishing her friend, Yoon Seulgi finally let out a sigh as if her anger had subsided and said.
"Phew. Actually, this girl came to a club for the first time. She suddenly disappeared and didn't answer my calls. You don't know how worried I was... I originally planned to just let her experience the club atmosphere a bit and then go home."
In other words, she never intended to hang out with men in the first place. Of course, even if she said that, now they were all paired up and sitting at the same table.
Seo Juhwan listened quietly and noticed something strange.
"Huh? You were planning to just go home?"
"Yes. But why?"
"Um... Didn't you say you accepted Junghoon hyung's offer just now? It fell through because I wasn't answering my phone."
"Ah, that's..."
Yoon Seulgi trailed off and glanced at Lee Junghoon.
Seo Juhwan, who had guessed her true feelings, chuckled to himself.
'I see.'
She probably wasn't lying when she said she planned to just dance a bit and leave. She had simply been swept away by Lee Junghoon's appearance.
'Actually, this works out well.'
He felt no emotion about her showing interest in Lee Junghoon rather than himself. Rather, the fact that they didn't overlap and lines were clearly drawn was good news. Besides, Min Gahee had been more to his taste than Yoon Seulgi anyway.
Seo Juhwan looked at Min Gahee, who was still panting, and silently called up her status window.
