Initially, Minhyun had decided to give up. Not because he didn't have the money, but due to the girl beside of him. During the countdown, he wasn't going to say a word. He realized that he needed to calm down and place this girl above all his current selfishness. By being so caught up in his opponent, he was ignoring the reason to why he was fighting in the first place.
His priorities had become twisted as time passed. In the end, nothing mattered if the girl beside of him wasn't content.
Upon seeing that Minhyun was refraining himself from raising another bid, Yoona's heart warmed up. He was sacrificing his pride for her. Out of all people, she knew how hard this choice was. Minhyun had ambitions and one of them was beating Jaemin.
She bit her lip. But why did she feel so bad?
