Chapter 7

Su Ming-Yu heard this and a look of helplessness appeared on his face.

Then he casually looked at Han Nari and said angrily, "Do you think I look like someone who has been taken advantage of?

Su Ming-Yu said this, and Han Nari was stunned at first, but she reacted quickly. She glared at Su Ming-Yu.

You must know that those guys who were after her would love to go shopping with her. As long as she waved at them, they would rush to pay for her.

But this Su Ming-Yu didn't have enough money and even had the audacity to say that he would be the one to pay.

At this thought, Han Nari's face turned blue and purple. Her beautiful eyes widened as she glared at Su Ming-Yu.

She was about to lash out, but then she saw the Centurion Black Gold Card in his hand.

Han Nari's family was wealthy, and she was knowledgeable enough to recognize it. The Centurion Black Gold Card, issued by American Express, was by invitation only and offered many privileges.

Only the powerful could get it. In Korea, only the top chaebols could get it, and even smaller chaebols struggled to get one.

This meant that Su Ming-Yu, who had been made fun of by everyone at school, must have had a powerful background.

Thinking this, Han Nari's previously angry face suddenly turned into a bright smile. She approached Su Ming-Yu with a sweet smile and naturally took his arm.

"Don't be angry! As long as you're willing to go shopping with me, I'll forgive your past actions. How about I return this card to you?" she teased.

I must admit that Han Nari's flirtatious smile was incredibly alluring, especially to someone like Su Ming-Yu, who had been a geeky economics student in his previous life. The temptation was undeniable.

But Su Ming-Yu had already made up his mind not to be taken advantage of. Just as he was debating whether or not to agree, Han Nari grabbed his arm, shook it, and said coquettishly, "I picked up this card for you, so shouldn't you thank me?

"All right! I'll go shopping with you, but I won't pay," Su Ming-Yu said firmly.

For Su Ming-Yu, it was okay to be deceived emotionally, but not financially.

After hearing this, three black lines appeared on Han Nari's forehead. This was the first time she had met such a miserly man.

Usually, men would spend lavishly to pursue her. But this guy was as stingy as an iron rooster, unwilling to part with even a dime.

If she wasn't trying to find out the origin of this Centurion Black Gold Card and Su Ming-Yu's true identity.

If she wasn't trying to use him to advance her acting career. Han Nari swore she would never stoop to such a level.

But despite Su Ming-Yu's words, Han Nari forced a smile. "Okay... that's fine."

As the two of them walked towards the mall, Han Nari's influence in the university was undeniable. She was the second most beautiful girl, after Min-Ji Yoon from the dance department. No matter where she went, she always attracted attention.

Su Ming-Yu, on the other hand, was different. He had been quiet and considered a loser in university - a joke, really.

But now, seeing Han Nari so close to him, the two of them seemed unusually intimate.

"Wtf... what did I just see? Isn't that Su Ming-Yu? The beauty of Lin University actually left the school with him?"

"I must be hallucinating! I didn't really wake up! I actually saw the university beauty with that loser..."

"I can't believe it..."

For a moment, the entire university was filled with exclamations of disbelief.

Han Nari had taken Su Ming-Yu's arm and left the university, and the news spread quickly. When JunWoo heard about it, his jaw almost dropped.

A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes as he muttered, "What's wrong with this guy? Is this still the same Su Ming-Yu I knew before?"

Despite his confusion, JunWoo decided to teach Su Ming-Yu a lesson. After all, he couldn't stand the fact that someone else had beaten him to the prize he hadn't yet enjoyed. Of course, he couldn't swallow this insult.

Meanwhile, after Han Nari and Su Ming-Yu left the university, she let go of his arm and deliberately kept a certain distance from him.

Seeing this, Su Ming-Yu realized that she had only held on to him while leaving the university to attract attention. But why? He didn't understand her motive.

Then Su Ming-Yu saw Han Nari's delicate hand playing with the Centurion Black Gold Card, and everything became clear.

A meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

She must have recognized the card and approached him for that reason.

Realizing this, Su Ming-Yu sneered inwardly. "How dare you use me? I'll make sure that I get something out of this, too!"

With that thought, Su Ming-Yu's gaze unconsciously lingered on her soft, white hands.

Han Nari and Su Ming-Yu entered the Ginza Mall together.
