Chapter 42 Let me go! Hentai!

Jiang Yongtai stared blankly at Minami.

"Nan-chan, what are you doing here?!"

Mina sat up, her face still flushed with the rosy glow of just waking up, a small tuft of her hair sticking up from sleep, her whole body soft and cuddly, looking like she hadn't quite woken up from a dream.

She didn't answer him, but leaned closer and reached out to touch his forehead.

Jiang Yongtai was still a little dazed and shrank back in surprise at her sudden approach.

"Don't move, Yongtai-san~"

She gave him a reproachful look, pressed the back of her hand against his forehead for a few seconds, then turned it over and tried it with her palm.

Jiang Yongtai looked at Minami, who was so close to him, and his breathing involuntarily became lighter.

Their faces were so close that he could see the two small moles on her nose and above her lips.

Her breath landed softly on his face, and a faint scent of jasmine wafted from her body, but his nose was a little stuffy, so he couldn't smell it very clearly.

Feeling that the temperature under her palm was no longer as hot as before, Mina nodded in satisfaction and withdrew her hand.

"Okay, the fever has subsided. Do you still feel unwell anywhere?"

Jiang Yongtai shook his head. He was still a little dizzy, but much better than at noon. His throat was a little itchy and his nose was a little stuffy.

"No, but Nan-chan still hasn't told me how you ended up in my house."

Mina raised her hand to tidy her messy hair and yawned slightly.

"Sana knew that Yongtai-san would definitely not listen, so she asked me to come and take you to the hospital, but you were sleeping too soundly, so I didn't wake you."

"————Uh." Jiang Yongtai scratched his head.

Sana Minatozaki couldn't come by herself, so she actually found a helper?

He then thought of something else, "Why is Nan-chan asleep too?"

Mina's dream memories, which were just about to completely fade away, resurfaced a little, and she turned her face away somewhat awkwardly.

"I was so tired from taking care of Yongtai-san that I fell asleep."

Jiang Yongtai glanced down at the damp towel on the pillow, and thinking about how she had taken care of him, he softened his voice.

"Thanks."

Mina didn't respond to the thank you, but picked up the water glass from the bedside table and handed it to him.

"Your throat is hoarse, drink some water."

Jiang Yongtai took the drink, drank a few mouthfuls, and let out a long breath, finally feeling alive again.

Mina got out of bed, straightened the hem of her slightly wrinkled hoodie, and regained her usual composure, as if nothing had happened between her and Kang Young-tae lying in the same bed.

"Are you hungry, Yongtai? I'll go cook you some porridge. Drinking porridge will help you recover faster when you're sick."

Jiang Yongtai was somewhat surprised, "Nanjiang can cook?"

Mina looked at him and shook her head seriously.

"Won't."

Jiang Yongtai's expression froze instantly. "Then why did you say you'd cook for me?"

"It's just cooking porridge, Yongtai-san doesn't believe me?"

Mina frowned slightly, her tone filled with dissatisfaction at being distrusted.

Jiang Yongtai quickly waved his hand, "No, no, I just wanted to say that you don't need to trouble yourself, I can order takeout myself."

Mina pursed her lips, glared at him, turned around and walked towards the door, leaving behind the words "No takeout allowed," before pushing open the door and leaving the bedroom.

Jiang Yongtai sat on the bed, watching the direction she left in. He reached up and brushed the sweat-dampened hair from his forehead back, a helpless smile appearing on his lips.

He threw off the covers, got out of bed, put on his slippers, and followed Mina out of the bedroom.

Minami went to the kitchen and began searching for the pot and rice she needed to cook porridge.

"The rice is in the cabinet downstairs, and the pot is the one on the counter."

Jiang Yongtai placed his hands on the bar counter and leaned half his body out to point out directions to her.

Mina followed his words, opened the cabinet door, squatted down to scoop rice, but stared blankly at the pot, unsure how much to put in.

Jiang Yongtai's voice came from behind him at just the right moment.

"If Nan-chan doesn't eat it, half a measuring cup is enough, but since it's this time, let's eat some together. Just fill the measuring cup."

"I know, Yongtai-san doesn't need to say anything!"

She didn't turn around, but while retorting, she obediently added another half cup of rice to the pot.

Hearing her say that, Jiang Yongtai wisely shut his mouth.

Minami took the pot to wash the rice. When she was filling the pot with water, she turned around and glanced at him, nodding slightly with her chin towards the pot to indicate that he should check the water level.

Seeing her contradictory words, Jiang Yongtai smiled and nodded, "That's enough, any more and it'll become too watery."

Mina gave him a look that said, "I'm just showing you, not asking you," then put the pot on the stove, turned on the fire, and turned around to open the refrigerator.

There were plenty of ingredients inside; the vegetables were packaged in airtight containers, and there were four or five eggs left in the egg compartment. It seems that Jiang Yongtai often cooks for himself.

She tapped her chin lightly with her finger, examining the contents of the refrigerator.

"What is Nan-chan best at making?"

She didn't turn around, and thought about it seriously for a moment.

"Hmm... an egg roll?"

Jiang Yongtai couldn't help but chuckle softly; she herself wasn't very confident.

"Then let's make an egg roll, fry some bacon, and serve it with some kimchi, that'll be enough."

Mina wasn't too happy with his laughter, as if he were taking care of a novice cook for the first time.

Although that was indeed the case, she still pouted in resentment.

However, since Jiang Yongtai was sick and it was the first time she had ever cooked for him, she didn't want to mess it up.

I took a few eggs and a box of bacon from the refrigerator and started preparing them at the counter.

Jiang Yongtai watched as she picked up the egg and tapped it twice on the rim of the bowl without cracking it. She then applied a little more force and managed to break the shell open. A few small pieces of shell fell into the egg mixture, and he quickly picked them up with chopsticks.

He sighed silently, took an apron from the cabinet, and walked over to her.

"Nan-chan, tie this up, otherwise the egg yolk will splash onto your clothes."

"oh."

Mina didn't argue. She put down her chopsticks, took the apron and put it around her neck. She reached behind her back to reach for the two straps, but couldn't grab them after several attempts.

Jiang Yongtai had already stood behind her, took the two straps from her hands, and said gently, "Let me do it."

Mina's hand froze in mid-air, his breath tickling the back of her neck, causing her body to tremble slightly.

Jiang Yongtai gathered the apron straps and tied a bow at her waist.

Mina stood still, and for some reason, the scene gave off a feeling of a newlywed couple.

She had her back to him and felt her face getting hot.

"Alright." He took a step back.

Mina could feel that Kang Young-tae was watching her from behind, and that strange feeling deepened.

She pouted and turned to glare at him.

"Yongtai-san, you've been standing here watching me. Don't you believe me? Go sit in the living room!"

Jiang Yongtai was indeed a little worried that she would blow up his kitchen, but he couldn't say it out loud, so he could only shrug innocently.

"Can't I even look?"

"No way!" Mina pouted slightly.

"----All right."

Jiang Yongtai sighed, "Then I'll go have a smoke first."

"That won't work either!"

Mina reached out her hand, palm up, and presented it in front of him.

"Give me the cigarettes and the lighter. Doesn't Yongtai-san know he's sick? How can he smoke!"

"----Well."

'

Jiang Yongtai paused for a moment, looked down at her serious eyes that left no room for negotiation, and helplessly took out the cigarette case and lighter from his pocket and placed them in her hand, muttering something under his breath.

"Why should I care about this?" she said, turning and walking towards the living room.

Mina watched his retreating figure, smugly hummed twice, and put the cigarette case and lighter in the far corner of the kitchen counter to prevent him from stealing them back while she was cooking.

After finishing this task, she suddenly felt much better. She picked up her chopsticks and continued picking at the broken eggshells in the egg mixture, humming a song softly to herself.

Mina washed her hands, glanced at the pot of porridge bubbling on the stove, and estimated the time.

It would take at least half an hour for the porridge to cook, so she decided to wait until it was almost done before coming back to continue. She wiped her hands and walked towards the living room.

Jiang Yongtai leaned back on the sofa, looking down at his phone, typing on the screen.

He confirmed with Park Soo-bin whether there were any problems with the production team after he took leave, and also asked if any footage was missing.

Park Soo-bin replied quickly, saying everything was going well and that he could focus on recovering.

Mina sat down next to him, turning her head to look at his focused profile.

As he typed, his brows furrowed slightly as he did so, unaware of her gaze falling upon him.

"How did Sana and Jeongyeon unnie's recording go today?"

Jiang Yongtai didn't look up and continued replying to Park Soo-bin's messages.

"The effect is very good. Sana's eyes are very charming. After the show airs, many casual viewers should fall in love with her because of this."

Very charming —

Mina mentally went over those words again and again, a slight smirk playing on her lips as she asked casually, "Really? What kind of look does Sana have?"

"Hmm—it's very vivid, and like the Onces said, there's a hook in his eyes."

Jiang Yongtai chuckled lightly, still staring at his phone screen, completely unaware that he was heading further and further down the wrong path.

How come it still came off the hook even though it had one?

Mina pouted, wanting to continue the question, but swallowed it back.

She lowered her head and thought for a moment, her eyelashes fluttering slightly. When she raised her eyes again, she looked completely different.

"How do you compare to me?"

Jiang Yongtai paused, then subconsciously looked away from his phone screen and met her eyes.

Mina tilted her head slightly, her hand gently touching her chin, her face devoid of a smile, her eyes fixed straight at him.

A layer of misty water floated in her eyes, gentle yet wistful, innocent yet tender, as if looking at a deep lake through a thin fog.

Jiang Yongtai's mouth opened slightly, and his heart skipped a beat without warning.

Seeing his expression, Mina laughed. The gentleness she had deliberately spread out was withdrawn, leaving only a smile of someone who had caught their prey's weakness.

She blinked, her voice light and cheerful.

"Once also likes this expression of mine, right? My solo fan, Yongtai-san~"

Jiang Yongtai watched as she returned to her familiar appearance, his heart calmed down, and he leaned back on the sofa and smiled.

"Hey—you're very charming too, Nan-chan."

Hearing him say that, Mina laughed, but then suddenly remembered something and tilted her head curiously.

"Yongtai-san, when did you start telling me you liked me?"

Although this statement could easily be misunderstood, Jiang Yongtai knew that she was asking about the matter he had mentioned before, which was why it became Once because of Mina.

Looking at her expectant eyes, Jiang Yongtai deliberately frowned and thought for a moment.

"Hmm—around the time of 'Knock Knock'."

Mina frowned slightly. Was it at that time that he fell in love with her?

Why "KnockKnock"?

Jiang Yongtai's lips were already starting to curl upwards.

"Nan-chan's twin tails were so cute back then~"

"But Sana was so cute back then, and so was Nayeon unnie—"

She counted her fingers one by one.

During that period, because of the success of their first two songs, they continued to maintain their energetic and cute image, even though everyone was adorable.

Jiang Yongtai shook his head, his expression suddenly becoming extremely serious.

"It's different. Nan-chan was so cute and naive in the music video back then."

'

"Mani was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was playing a trick on her.

She sneered, grabbed a nearby cushion, and threw it at him.

"Yongtai-san, you're the one who's so unsophisticated!"

The cushion slammed into his chest with considerable force, causing Jiang Yongtai to lean back and then turn his head to cough several times while covering his mouth.

Mina paused, remembering that he was still sick, and quickly put the cushion down.

"Yongtai-san, I'm sorry, are you alright?"

"N-nothing."

Adhering to the principle of performing a full role, he coughed weakly twice, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he had just experienced some serious injury.

"It's good that Nan-chan isn't angry."

Mina pouted.

How could I not be angry! I was so unfashionable back then! Twin tails and pajamas were absolutely adorable!

However, seeing his expression, she had no choice but to swallow her anger and force a sweet smile.

"I'm not angry~ But why do you think that, Yongtai-san? I'm not angry, I just wanted to ask~"

Double negatives are equivalent to affirmations.

Jiang Yongtai immediately realized that the crisis was not over yet, and he would still have to eat her cooking later, so now was definitely not the time to continue courting death.

He gave her a sincere smile. "No, no, I was just joking. I became a fan because of Nan-chan's twin tails."

Mina looked at the forced, genuine smile on his face and keenly sensed the survival instinct within it. She sneered inwardly, but narrowed her eyes and tilted her head.

"Hmm, Yongtai-san likes that design~ I know, the porridge seems to be almost ready, I'll go cook some dishes."

After saying that, she stood up, turned around, and walked towards the kitchen.

Kang Young-tae breathed a sigh of relief, picked up his phone to continue replying to Park Soo-bin's messages, but his fingers seemed to have their own will, opening YouTube, typing a few words in the search bar, finding Mina from that period, and watching the MV again.

How is that unsophisticated? You're absolutely adorable! Why would he say something like that?

"The egg rolls are here."

Mina placed the finished egg rolls on the table, sat down opposite Kang Young-tae, propped her elbows on the table, and looked at him expectantly.

"Yongtai-san, eat up."

"----good."

Jiang Yongtai looked at the plate of slightly charred egg rolls in front of him, his Adam's apple bobbed, a gentle smile appeared on his face, and he picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.

So salty!

He frowned inwardly, picked up the still steaming bowl of porridge, took a big gulp, and when he looked up, he had put on a genuine smile and even gave her a thumbs up.

"It's delicious, Nan-chan sauce."

-

Mina smiled gently, picked up her chopsticks, and put two more pieces into his bowl.

"Really? Then Yongtai-san, eat more. I haven't made this in a long time, I thought it would fail~"

He sneered inwardly. To say something so salty is delicious? Yongtai-san's acting is quite good, isn't it?

Jiang Yongtai looked down at the two pieces that had suddenly appeared in his bowl, and his lips twitched.

He dared not refuse, so he could only resign himself to continuing to eat, at most drinking two more bowls of porridge.

Moreover, he should be thankful that Mina at least considered that he was a patient and did not tamper with the porridge.

The phone suddenly rang, and Park Soo-bin's name lit up on the screen. Kang Young-tae thought there was a problem with the show's production team, so he quickly answered it.

"Yongtai."

"What's wrong, Soobin noona? Is something the problem?"

Park Soo-bin chuckled twice.

"No, no, I forgot to ask you earlier, how are you feeling? Are you still able to attend the social gathering tomorrow night?"

The dining table was quiet, and Park Soo-bin's voice, which was quite loud, came through the receiver clearly.

Social gathering?

Minami paused slightly with her chopsticks, raised her eyes, raised her eyebrows slightly, and then continued to pick up food as if nothing had happened.

Jiang Yongtai leaned back with a wry smile. "Do I really have to participate? It's the same whether Soobin, Noona, or Sungwoo go, right?"

"If you don't have any problems, you'd better come."

Several female writers in the company never participated before, complaining that the other male writers and producers weren't handsome enough. They only signed up this time because of you.

Park Soo-bin paused, his tone slightly embarrassed.

"But if you can't come because you're sick, there's nothing we can do about it."

Because Yongtai Sang went there, right?

Jiang Yongtai's face contorted instantly as he was suddenly kicked in the calf.

"————!"

"Hmm? Yongtai, what's wrong?"

"N-nothing."

He looked up at Mina, who was nonchalantly drinking her porridge across from him, and mouthed:

Nan-chan, why did you kick me?

Mina raised her eyes, her face full of innocence, and mouthed in response: Did I? No, it wasn't me.

She stuck the spoon into the bowl, making a soft sound, and lowered her head to continue drinking her porridge.

"—What did you say, Yongtae?" Park Soo-bin pressed.

"Well, I'm feeling better. I can go back to work tomorrow. As for the social gathering—"

Mina listened to him expressionlessly, glanced at him, and began to gather her strength—to strike!

Jiang Yongtai gasped sharply as he took another hit in the same spot on his calf, looking up at the person opposite him.

Minami pulled her foot back, calmly scooped up a spoonful of porridge, blew on it, and ate it.

Jiang Yongtai sighed; he had already identified the culprit.

Every time, Mina would kick her out just when she was about to agree to attend, so she decisively refused, saying, "Noona, let's forget about the social gathering. It wouldn't be good if I went and infected my colleagues. I'm sorry."

"Oh—okay, I won't disturb your rest any longer. See you tomorrow."

Park Soo-bin's tone was full of regret, but Kang Young-tae was a patient, so she couldn't force him. She then hung up the phone.

Jiang Yongtai put down his phone, rubbed his calf which had just been kicked twice, and looked at the nonchalant Mina across from him with a wry smile.

"Nan-chan, why did you kick me just now?"

Mina raised her face, her expression perfectly innocent.

"I said it wasn't me—"

She pouted, her voice full of grievance, "Don't you believe me, Yongtai-san?"

Jiang Yongtai twitched the corner of his mouth.

There were only the two of them there; who else could it be but her?!

He thought for a moment, then asked uncertainly, "Um—Nan-chan, you don't want me to go to the mixer?"

Mina's expression became even more innocent. She frowned slightly, put down her chopsticks, and seemed to be seriously considering the matter.

"Why wouldn't I want Yongtai-san to go? Yongtai-san is already this age and still doesn't have a girlfriend, and he's said before that he wants to find a non-celebrity—"

"Wouldn't it be great to go? You shouldn't have refused!"

Jiang Yongtai stared at her expressionlessly for two seconds, then chuckled twice and pretended to pick up his phone.

"Yeah, Nam-chan is right, then I'll send it back to Soo-bin noona —"

Before she could finish speaking, the foot under the table moved again, but this time Jiang Yongtai was prepared. He dodged to the side with both feet and quickly reached down to grab her calf before she could retract it.

Mina's ankle was firmly held in his palm, and she struggled twice but couldn't break free.

He raised an eyebrow, glanced down at the slender white ankle in his hand, then looked up at her, his eyes saying, "Got it, huh?"

Mina paused for a moment, then her face darkened.

"open!"

"I won't let go. Nan-chan, tell me why you kicked me first."

He grabbed her leg as she struggled to pull it back.

"Can't I just want to kick it?"

Seeing that she couldn't break free, she simply stopped moving, glared at him, and spoke in a very harsh tone.

Jiang Yongtai was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Really? Then don't blame me for being impolite~"

Before Mina could even process what he meant, he had already deftly removed his socks.

Her toes were beautiful, white and tender, with neatly trimmed nails. Suddenly exposed to the air, they curled slightly in tension.

Her eyes widened, and she instinctively tried to pull her foot back.

"What are you going to do?!"

"If Nan-chan can simply kick me, then I can simply—"

Jiang Yongtai completed the sentence with his actions. He held her ankle with one hand and scratched the sole of her foot with his other finger without any hesitation.

Mina paused for a moment, then sneered, "Nagata-san doesn't think I'm ticklish, does he?"

"Yeah?"

Jiang Yongtai also gave a cold laugh, "How about this then~"

He changed direction and inserted his fingers between her toes, gently scraping her soft toe pads with his fingertips.

Mina's expression twisted instantly. She bit her lower lip, desperately trying to suppress the itch, but her body was much more honest than her will.

"Yada! Pervert! Let go! No, don't do this!"

She gripped the chair armrests tightly, struggling desperately, causing the chair to shake violently on the floor with a series of piercing noises.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Yongtai sneered and continued to intensify his offensive.

"Didn't Nan-chan say you weren't afraid?"

Mina bit her lower lip, her eyes already glistening with tears.

How did he know this was her sensitive spot?! I didn't tell anyone!

As his fingers became increasingly persistent, she finally couldn't hold on any longer. She slumped into the chair, looked up at him with wet eyes, and spoke in a soft, pitiful voice.

"Yongtai-san, I...I was wrong~ Please let me go~"

"That's not enough of an apology, Nan-chan~ I'm a patient, and you even kicked me twice. Be sincere~"

"I, I—haha, no—I'm sorry, Oppa! I was wrong—"

She really couldn't take it anymore, and the last two words slipped uncontrollably from her throat, her voice trembling with a mixture of sobs and laughter.

As soon as the words left my mouth, my whole face started burning. I knew without even looking in a mirror that I was definitely bright red.

She gritted her teeth and cursed Jiang Yongtai a hundred times in her heart.

That stingy man! Hentai! Baka! You little bastard!

Jiang Yongtai's fingers stopped. Looking at the tears sliding down her cheeks and her flushed face that refused to look at him, he released his grip.

"Aren't you going to let go? Young-tae oppa!"

Mina sensed that he had finally stopped and glared at him across the table, but with her reddened eyes and lingering shame, the glare was utterly harmless.

Jiang Yongtai looked at her disheveled appearance with a smile in his eyes.

"I'm older than you, is it really that hard for you to call me 'Oppa,' Nan-chan?"

He paused, a hint of mischief in his voice, "Say it one more time and I'll let you go."

Mina looked up at his suddenly repulsive smile, took a deep breath, steeled herself, and called out in the most coquettish tone she had ever used: "Oppa~"

"Oppa! What are you doing?!"

Just as Jiang Yongtai was smiling and loosening Ming Jingnan's ankle, before he could even speak, a familiar voice came from the entrance.

His smile froze on his face, and his gaze slowly shifted.

Jiang Huiyuan stood in the entryway, one hand still on the shoe cabinet, raising one foot to change her shoes, but her eyes widened, her mouth slightly open, as if she had been paused, staring blankly at the dining table.

Jiang Yongtai was still holding a sock in his hand. The blonde woman with her back to him was huddled in her chair, her bare leg just pulled back from the dining table.

Jiang Yongtai's mind went blank, and he blurted out instinctively, "Huiyuan—what brings you here?"

Mina froze the moment she heard another woman's voice, slowly turning her head to look at the entrance.

Jiang Huiyuan's gaze met hers, and her already large eyes widened even more instantly.

"Mi, Mina-senpai?!"

The woman "flirting" with her oppa at the dinner table is Mina from Twice?! And Sana Minato's teammate?!

Mina's face, which was already flushed, became even hotter, and she instinctively pulled her bare foot under the chair.

She closed her eyes, mentally reviewing all the lessons she had learned about facial expression management since her debut, then opened her eyes, nodded slightly towards the entrance, and gave what she considered to be her gentlest smile.

"Hello, Huiyuan i — nice to meet you, I'm Jiang Yongtai's friend."

But this smile, combined with her mature appearance and the tear stains still wet at the corners of her eyes, is utterly unconvincing!

Jiang Huiyuan was still in shock from what she had just seen, and she misheard "friend" as "girlfriend." She subconsciously turned around and went to open the door.

"Sorry to bother you! I'll be going now—"

"etc!"

Seeing her reaction, Jiang Yongtai knew she had misunderstood something serious. He quickly stood up to stop her, but he stood up too fast and his knee hit the corner of the table hard. He groaned and fell back into his chair.

"Oppa!"

Upon hearing the sound, Jiang Huiyuan immediately turned around, rushed to his side, and squatted down.

Are you alright?

Mina leaned forward from her chair, frowned at him, and asked in a low voice with a complicated expression, "Nagatae-san, are you alright?"

"N-nothing."

Jiang Yongtai rubbed his knee, forced a pained smile, first told Jiang Huiyuan that he was fine, and then looked up at Mingjing Nan.

"Nan-chan, I'm fine."

Nanjiang? Yongtai-san?

These two words drifted into Jiang Huiyuan's ears, and her gaze darted back and forth between Jiang Yongtai and Mingjing Nan several times.

Jiang Yongtai looked at the expression on her face and sighed helplessly.

"Stop thinking about it, you've misunderstood. Let me explain—"

That's how it is—

Sitting on the sofa, Jiang Yongtai calmly told Jiang Huiyuan a story he had just come up with in a moment of inspiration.

In this version, he and Mina are friends. She came to visit him after hearing that he was sick, and the time he was holding her foot was just to check her old knee injury.

Although it's still ambiguous, at least it leaves less room for speculation compared to the truth.

Mina sat to the side, nodding slightly in agreement, her expression back to normal, as if the "foot injury checkup" was nothing out of the ordinary.

She met Jiang Yongtai's gaze and gave him a look: Yongtai-san, I can spare your life for now!

Jiang Yongtai could only nod with a wry smile when he saw this, after all, he was the one who had caused the whole mess.

Jiang Huiyuan listened with a sullen face, her gaze sweeping back and forth between the two of them several times.

When that suspicious gaze fell upon her, Mina felt as if she had been seen naked. Although she really wanted to settle accounts with Kang Yong-tae, she knew it was not a good time to stay here. She would settle accounts with him later!

She picked up her phone, glanced at the screen, and her acting skills kicked in.

"Ah, it's already this late! I should go back now. Goodbye, Yongtai-san, and Huiyuan-i."

Jiang Huiyuan snapped out of her daze, stood up, and forced a standard junior smile.

"Senior, you can just call me Huiyuan. Since—"

She glanced at Kang Young-tae, "Since you're my oppa's friend, senior, then call me Hye-won, Minatozaki—Sana"

I know Unnie too.

She originally wanted to say "Minatozaki Sana", but then she thought it would be too impolite to call her teammate by her name in front of Mina, so she changed her mind.

"Okay, Huiyuan."

Minami smiled gently at her and looked at Kang Young-tae.

"Yongtai-san, I'll head back now. Contact me if you need anything~"

She subtly made a phone call gesture with her hand hanging by her side.

Jiang Yongtai saw the fierce glint in her eyes that wasn't completely hidden, and knew he had to make the call whether he wanted to or not.

"Okay, thank you for today, Nan-chan. I won't see you off."

3

Mina said "Hmm" and turned to walk quickly towards the entrance.

She walked quickly, not even bothering to pick up her lone sock that was still lying on the side of the dining table. She casually slipped on her shoes, pushed open the door, and went out.

The moment the door closed behind her, she leaned against the corridor wall, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and raised her hand to touch her face, which was starting to burn again.

He snorted, stomped his foot hard, and walked towards the elevator.

In the living room, Jiang Huiyuan looked at the door that had closed again, then turned to look at Jiang Yongtai. She opened her mouth, then closed it again, her face displaying a complex expression of unspoken words.

"What's wrong, Huiyuan? What do you want to say now?"

Jiang Yongtai leaned back on the sofa, looking at her wearily. After a series of events, his body, which had been almost recovered, began to feel heavy again.

Looking at his expression, Jiang Huiyuan gritted her teeth and decided to finally blurt out the words that had been bottled up in her heart for so long.

"Oppa, it's wrong to date your ex-girlfriend's teammate!"
