Transmigration: The Narcissistic Cinderella - Chapter 146

Forcing out a smile upon her features, Moon Jiwoo said, “Nothing is wrong with me. I am absolutely fine. It’s just that I am tired of staying inside and doing nothing throughout the entire time.”

With that, Moon Jiwoo stood, and putting in her best, she tried to hide all that she felt from appearing on her face.

Although Sookyung did not seem to be completely convinced by her, he still nodded, not wanting to push Moon Jiwoo further. It was not difficult for to notice how she was struggling, and he was scared of every little thing he did.

He did not want to push her mistakenly and then lose everything. Only a few days were left, and this made him be more careful than anything.

He just prayed that Moon Jiwoo would be able to be patient for those couple of days, and any mistakes wouldn’t be created by him.

“Is that so? I am glad go hear that, but you know that you can come to me if anything goes wrong. I don’t want you to feel restricted at here. No matter how busy I might seem, I always have free time for you,” he vocalised.

“You are really cringy,” she said, “It’s just that I want it to be ending soon.”

“Yeah, that will be happening. Now, why don’t we go and have dinner together? It’s been a while since we were able to eat together, and today, it appears that I have plenty of time in my hand. I took care of my work quickly because of you. Aren’t you happy?”

‘I would have been happy if I didn’t hear the maids talk. That’s why people say that obliviousness is bliss. You don’t know how much I wish for myself to have known about the maids’ words. That would have just made everything easier for me.’

“I don’t see how that is big of deal. Having dinner with or without you is just the same to me. Actually, I prefer to dine without you since you are quite irritating.”

“You are the cutest when you talk like that, Shin Daerin. Did I ever say about that?” he raised one of his eyebrows.

“Don’t know. You have called everything of mine cute that I can’t remember what all you mentioned,” she stated, “At this point, I am starting to think that you don’t know how to compliment with words other than cute.”

“There is no other words that suits you as much as cute. Even your height suits the word cute. How tall are you even? Do you even reach 160 centimetres? I doubt that,” he spoke out, teasing her.

“Shut up, you ȧsshole! Whatever my height is none of your business, and it’s just that you are too giant! Do you know how much it hurts my neck when I talk to you? Shouldn’t you be considerate of me and bend down talking to me? You claim to love me but this is how you act! I am seriously disappointed in you!” she said.

The thing Moon Jiwoo was sure about that being with Oh Sookyung made her forget all about her worries. It was just like now. Although she had greater worries, it as if they were all driven away as both of them joked around with each other.

Extending his hand towards her, he patted on her head and stated, “Yes, yes, I will try to do that from next time onwards, my short girlfriend.”

“Quit with picking on my height. If you can do that, I can do the same with you as well, you giant!”

He let out a chuckle.

“Say, Oh Sookyung, what you are planning to do isn’t dangerous, right? Like, you are not going to harm other people to do it, right?” Moon Jiwoo softly said.

Even she was afraid of hearing the answer. Then again, knowing Oh Sookyung, there were high chances of him lying if he knew that the answer would be displeasing her, and there was no way she would be able to trust in his words. But she still wanted to try it out.

Maybe she would be able to receive a peace of her mind in that way.

“Why are you suddenly asking such a question?” he questioned before adding, “What if I say that is?”

Moon Jiwoo’s eyes widened at that, and she stared at him with shock in her eyes. Her heart was starting to beat rapidly within her ċhėst, and what she felt in that moment was obvious to Oh Sookyung.

Laughing, he voiced out, “I was pulling your leg. Don’t worry, it is nothing like that. You don’t need to seem to be that horrified.”

“It’s just that you are one of those man I can’t trust,” she pointed out, “But please, I don’t want you to do anything dangerous for you or others.”

“When did my Daerinnie become so mȧturė? What caused you to grown up? I miss the days you used to act like five year old.”

“Do you want me to punch you? I never acted like a five year old. It’s just that you were a immature jerk, and I hated you. I think that I can be quite mȧturė, unless I lose control over my anger and something wrong happens,” she pointed out.

“I will my best to believe you. After all, since I love you, I am pretty sure that it is my responsibility to pretend to believe all of your lies in order to not hurt you. Don’t worry. Even if the entire world doesn’t believe in you, I would not doubt the fact.”

“Fuck you, Asshole! Why don’t you just go and fall I to a ditch!? I have changed my mind. I don’t want to have my dinner with you. It will just ruin my appetite and give me indigestion. I don’t want either of that!”
