“It was nothing,” I quickly tried to cover up my thoughts. However, Yunjun did not seem convinced.

“Really? Nothing at all?” He tried to persist.

I cleared my throat, stepping to the side, trying to turn the tide of this awkward situation. “Come on, Yunjun-ssi. Let us be professional about this, hm?”

He did not look even slightly amused as he uncrossed his arms with a slight huff. Instead, he walked right past me without a word, stopping at the door, and he swung it open and held it, nodding toward it with his head.

“Well, come on then, Doc,” he said sarcastically.

“You really do not have to call me that. You can just call me by name...”

“I thought you wanted to be professional, or did I hear you wrong, Doctor?” He coldly snapped at me.

Wow... What a change in attitude. Is he acting like this just because I told him that I do not remember him? What could he have possibly expected?

I thought to myself as I pursed my lips into a thin line, now feeling a bit annoyed but knowing I could not show it because it would be considered unprofessional. My nostrils flared before letting out a barely noticeable huff.

So much for innocence... You can be a real pain in the ass sometimes, Kim Yunjun. Yet, I know beneath that cold facade, you care deeply for your members. You will definitely be a tricky code to crack... Let us see how long it takes before you let me in and completely open up. They do not call me one of the best for nothing, you know.

“No, you heard me correctly,” I simply exchanged, heading through the door, “thank you for holding the door.”

He remained silent, closing the door after I came through. What surprised me was that six puzzled faces were looking at the two of us as we made our way into the hallway. The leader of their group was the first to speak up, arching an eyebrow in the process.

“What took you two so long?” Namki asked, looking between Yunjun and me.
