17 You are the jerk!

Drawing the comic for a while had begun to make her drowsy, and blinking her eyes number of

times, she tried to fix her sight. Knowing that she had one more chapter to draw yet, she was aware that she could not fall asleep.

She slacked off earlier for she had no will to draw the comic, but now, she had to pay for that by staying up overnight. Suddenly, feeling slightly parched, she turned her head to look at the table.

Realising that there was no water inside the jug, she let out a sigh. Sliding her chair back, Miyeon stood up. If the thirst was small, she would have been able to resist it, but that did not seem to be the case in this.

"I will just quietly and quickly go to the kitchen to drink some water. They can't call me rude for wanting to drink some water," she mumbled to herself while she walked towards the door.

Extending her hand towards the knob of the door, she turned it and opened the door to her room before stepping outside.

Inside a warm room was Min Soobin and Taejoon— the two of them sitting opposite to each other on the couch. While Min Taejoon stared at the sheet of paper inside his hand, Soobin typed away in his laptop.

Raising his head from the laptop, he started, "Miss Oh mentioned on how the both of you met due to a jerk."

"Miss Oh? Do you mean that Miyeon?" Taejoon questioned, raising one of his eyebrows.

Soobin nodded.

Upon that, laughs left Taejoon's mouth, and the noises from the laughs intensified, he clutched on to his stomach. That's when, his eyes fell on the stern gaze Soobin directed at him, and he let out a cough.

Sitting up straight, he wiped away the invisible tear from the corner of his eyes and said, "She called you a jerk. We met because of you. The two of you used to be extremely sticky to each other, so I guess, it's understandable for her to be angry. You probably did not even recognize her!

But I didn't think she would actually call you a jerk in front of your face. Hyung, where were your keen senses? You really did not notice she addressed you as the jerk?"

A dark look settled in Min Soobin's eyes at that instant, and it seemed that he had fallen into a deep thought. Both of his lips were pursed together as he tapped his hand on top of the desk.

After drinking that water and quenching her thirst, Oh Miyeon found herself feeling more invigorated while she skipped through the stairs, trying to make as less noise as possible.

Now, she believed that she would be able to draw at least three chapters without a rest although that must have been more or less of an exaggeration.

As she stepped on the last step, she raised her head to look forward, and noticing something before her, a scream escaped from her mouth.

A bright light from the torch light was before her, and it was held on the man's face, making him seem frightening. At the sudden appearance, Miyeon lost her balance, and she found herself falling towards the back.

"Miss Oh!" Soobin exclaimed.
