Transmigration: The Narcissistic Cinderella - Chapter 179
“Soohyun and Minhyun Hyung invited us for dinner at their place. Apparently, Soohyun is pregnant,” Sookyung vocalised.
Both of them were seated upon the couch while the television in front of them played a drama. His words managed to catch her by off guard, and as her eyes widened, she turned to face him.
“Really?” she questioned.
“Yeah,” Sookyung answered, “Both of them seemed to be happy.”
“Ah! That’s good then. I am not good with kids, but I am excited to see how their kid will look like. Both of them are really beautiful although it’s weird to praise them somewhat,” Jiwoo spoke out.
Since Soohyun was in her previous body, it was still more or less weird for Moon Jiwoo when she faced the lady. Nonetheless, Jiwoo was aware of how different the two of them were.
The way they carried themselves and their temperament was completely different, and that’s why, she was able to cope up with it a little.
“I can only imagine how it must feel for you. It’s like facing your doppelganger, but at the same time, you don’t have the same face.
It’s funny to see how things turned out to be way though,” Sookyung said as a chuckle escaped from his mouth.
“It’s more strange to face Han Minhyun. He was the man who forced me to marry him in my last life after I made fool of myself although he doesn’t remember anything of that since all of that was replaced by Soohyun.
But it’s nice to see how both of them get along. I never thought that Minhyun would have this side to him. You might not be aware, but he was such a cold man. Everyone was afraid of him, and no one dared to get close to him.
However, nowadays, he had become really warm. It’s almost correct to say that love does change person. You know, back then, everyone actually believed that he can kill humans and torture. That he was also ȧssociated with the mafia.
But these days it seems that this rumours are dying down. Media potrayed him to be scariest man in Seoul. Can you believe that? Thinking back to all of that really makes me laugh.”
Extending his hand towards the girl, he wrapped it around her shoulder and brought her body closer to hers. As both of their shoulders touched, they laughed at the same time.
“And, Chaeyoung, I used to hate her so much in my last life. I don’t think she knows that I am Jiwoo. There is this one time I was close to destroying her life. I was seriously vicious. Who thought that I will be ending up with her supposed to be younger brother?
I did hear about you a lot of times, but we never met in my last life though although I met with Chaeyoung with many times. None of those meetings were pleasant though.
I actually pulled at her hair once. I believe that it is a good thing that we did not meet in our last life or else you would have wanted to stab me with how I treated Chaeyoung.”
Oh Sookyung let out a chuckle and vocalised, “I am a sister complex, and it was not small, trust me. When Chaeyoung Noona started to spend less time with me due to all the work, I wanted her attention.
That’s when, I turned to the bad things. I started to cause trouble and scam people, hoping that I would be caught one day. But unfortunately no one was able to catch me.
This was my way of trying to get attention from Chaeyoung Noona, until you came up and that was the last thing in my mind.”
Moon Jiwoo commented, “I didn’t think you had such a motive behind scamming people.”
“You were really naive back then though. You were the easiest to scam, and I couldn’t believe that. I almost that you were tricking me, but that didn’t appear to be the case.”
“I apologise for being naive, but that was my first time getting scammed. You can’t expect me to know anything about it. You shattered my dreams though. I wanted to be a popular idol, but that got to ruin.”
“I did see your videos from the time you were an idol couple of days ago, and I can’t believe that you acted that cute. Can’t you dance and sing for me? I can be your only fanboy,” he vocalised, raising one of his eyebrows.
“I don’t think I am interested in being one anymore. That’s why, that is not going to happen any time. Honestly, I am lucky to have lived two times.
Although it was tough, I got to experience and do lots of things ordinary people wouldn’t be able to do. At the end, it is the memory that remains, and everything just makes me nostalgic right now.
I had a sister too, you know. She was called Moon Jimin. She was better than me— smarter, more beautiful, and friendly. You can say that she was the complete opposite of me, and more or less perfect in other’s eyes.
I didn’t feel envious of her though or maybe I was too oblivious to feel so. It could probably be because of how much vicious she was; it was almost like me. Throughout the entire time, I knew that she had a crush on Eunwoo and wanted to use me.
But I didn’t care. I just followed what she wanted to do. It was because of how I was amazed by how someone like her wanted to get along with me. More than Eunwoo, I wanted to be sisters with Jimin Noona.
I knew that wasn’t the way she felt, and in the end of the day, she wanted to destroy me. But back then, it did not matter to me. As long as Jimin Noona was happy, it was fine for me.
My mother was weird. No, you can just say that she was the extreme version of me. She wanted to maintain her riches and beauty forever. Although she did not care about me much, I was happy during all the time she thought about me although it was for her advantage.
My mom wasted her life trying to take down my father’s wife, and sometimes I wondered why he kept someone as loud as my mother around him. It’s not like he cared for me either. I was a bother, a taint to him.
Thinking about it right now, I was really lonely and alone back then. But my arrogance and pride did not allow me to think about it in that way. I was too ashamed to find any faults within me. So, I never thought about it in that way.
But it doesn’t hurt me now though. It’s like maybe I have gone through all of that to end up with you like this. Thinking about it like that makes me happy. Since all the hard times had passed by away, there is no need for me to concentrate on it anymore.”
Holding Moon Jiwoo’s hand, Oh Sookyung raised it up and placed a small kiss on the surface while wearing a small smile upon his face.
“You have done a great job throughout the entire time. If you think that you are vicious, do remember that I am worse than you. Does it even matter what you did in the past? My past was way worse than yours,” he revealed.
Moon Jiwoo chuckled and stated, “Are you trying to comfort me? I thought that you will be trying to tease me or something. I will end up crying if you act that way.”
As soon as those words left from her mouth, tears started to form at the corner of her eyes, and they fell into Oh Sookyung’s line of sight.
“Silly girl,” he mumbled before moving closer to the girl, and softly he placed his lips on top her tears.
Moon Jiwoo found her heart fluttering due to his actions, and her cheeks started to get red. Rabbles of buŧŧerflies moved around randomly in her stomach.
Then pulling away from the girl, he brought his face closer to her again, and this time around, he placed his lips on top of her hers.
At the contact of a soft material with her lips, Moon Jiwoo accepted and started to respond to the kiss with equal fervour. She wrapped her hands around his neck while the male deepened the kiss between both of them
