Chapter 13: First Kiss

.....

Reporters swarmed around the two and snapped their photos from every angle possible, competing with each other, as none of them were going to miss this exclusive footage, that was sure to get them promoted.

The loud murmurs of people began to be heard as large number of people started to circle around the two, with their keen eyes fixed on Soo Min and Ryan.

"Are they a couple? No way! Is that why CEO Song abruptly left the interview when he was asked if he was dating anyone?" Lady A looked at the two curiously.

"I mean those too look like a couple that walked out from some fairytale. One is beautiful and the other is handsome, so it wouldn't be wrong of them to date, you know." Lady B stated.

"Did they really just kiss in front of everyone, like don't have any shame?" Lady C looked at Soo Min with eyes full of disdain, but in reality she was just jealous of the fact that she was not the one who got to kiss the wealthy and handsome, Ryan Song.

"WHAT THE—" Olivia and Daniel simultaneously uttered in disbelief.

When the two of them heard the familiar voices, Soo Min and Ryan immediately turned towards the same direction only to look at the paled faces of their friends.

"OMG! Park Soo Min did you just have your first kis—Mmh!" Olivia was interrupted when Soo Min placed her hand over her mouth.

"Just shut up, please!" Soo Min pleaded. The situation was already awkward enough, not to mention her friend adding more misery, she could practically die of embarrassment.

"Dang... I didn't know you had it in you, Ryan. Your mother will be so proud of you!" Daniel jested, while casually placing his arm around Ryan's shoulder.

Ryan glared at him with his sharp gaze and Daniel felt the pressure around him dropping down, before he slowly retrieved his hand from around Ryan's shoulder.

Daniel cleared his throat and turned to walk towards Soo Min. "Hello sister-in-law. Let me formally introduce myself to you. I'm Daniel Zi, the heir to Zi Corporations, and Ryan's best friend."

Daniel extended his hand and Soo Min, contemplated whether she should receive it or not. In reality, she wanted to stay away from anyone close to that man and sister-in-law? When did she become his 'sister-in-law'?

Before Soo Min could respond, Olivia accepted his hand with a pretentious smile. "Nice to meet you too! Mr. Douchebag."

"Move aside. I wasn't talking to you!" Daniel said with rounded eyes.

"Sorry, but it's my job to protect Soo Min from psychopathic men." Olivia simply answered with her arms crossed.

Noticing the weird exchanges between the two, Soo Min couldn't help but ask her friend. "Olivia, d—do you know him?"

"Who him? Well he's just a nobody but if you really must know..." Olivia began to inform and then whispered a few things into Soo Min's ear.

When Daniel saw the shocking facial expressions on Soo Min's face, he immediately frowned before pointing his finger at Olivia.

"HEY YOU! What nonsense are you spouting?" Daniel scorned.

Soo Min glanced at Ryan before looking back at Daniel. "He really is a bad influence on people. Better to stay as far away as possible!" She hissed while she rubbed her arms, trying to cool down her goosebumps.
