1.52 The First World : Ryan and Jihun (Part 36)-Back to the Beginning-3

The author wants to say something.

Jihun: (Gently placed the sleeping Ryan on the bed) Honestly, only when you've slept or drunk did you lower your guard around me, Ry. (Whisked the hair that covered Ryan's face)

Ryan: (Mumbled in his sleep)

Jihun: ???

Ryan: ...Jihun...mmm... (Said in somewhat hazy and vague voice)

Jihun: (Got curious and leaned in closer to hear what he was mumbling about)

Ryan: Stupid Jihun! The next time I meet you, I will punch you straight in your face.

Jihun: ...

Jihun: ...For an incoherent mumble, you do speak eloquently. (Grabbed Ryan's cheeks and squeezed them out) Sleep, you brat!

Ryan: (Frowned in his sleep) My cheeks...It's hurt.

--------

Ryan got discharged the following day.

His uncle was the one who picked him up and brought him back, straight to his Han Mansion and not Park Jae Ha's.

Ryan was surprised that his uncle managed to smuggle him out to his house under Jihun's nose.
