"..."
Melanie had been in a bad mood since yesterday.
To be precise, it was since she sent a message to Baek Taeyang.
"Why isn't he replying to me?"
Normally, she wouldn't have needed to wait like this, but this time was a bit different.
As it was a very important matter related to housing, Baek Taeyang had to respond no matter what.
'Surely he's not moving near our place?'
No way.
Melanie snorted and glared at her phone, thinking it couldn't be.
It was a flow of conversation that didn't make sense logically.
Baek Taeyang, who brilliantly cleared the gate at her request for help.
Baek Taeyang, who told her to dress prettily and wait before entering the gate.
Baek Taeyang, who performed splendidly when provided with the Kaiban First Series.
'After clearing the gate, telling me to dress prettily, and using all the weapons... he's not responding to my contact?'
She thought it was too strange a logic.
Usually, after doing this much, shouldn't he at least make one call to her?
Based on the big data of social life Melanie had built up so far, it was too obvious.
But Baek Taeyang, this man, for some reason, wasn't even looking at her message despite her contacting first.
Of course, he could be busy or have some circumstances, but what could be so busy right after finishing the gate?
"Miss, perhaps Hunter Baek Taeyang might be taking a sweet nap?"
"What nap would that person... Seeing what happened last time, with ano...another wo...woman..."
"Pardon?"
"It's nothing."
Melanie still couldn't forget that moment.
The woman's moans she heard when she called with the mind of asking what he was planning in front of the Bogeum Mall.
'I thought such things were only done at night...'
It was Baek Taeyang who did such things nonchalantly even with the sun high in the sky.
Moreover, he was a man who perfectly saw through and broke through the beauty strategy she had prepared with determination.
But for such a man to take a nap? That was impossible to think.
'He's probably doing it with another woman...'
But why does it feel so unsettling?
Melanie felt an indescribable emotion settling in her chest area.
Ding!
Just as she was wrapped in incomprehensible emotions and fidgeting, a message notification rang.
Usually, she would have it on silent, but this time she had turned on notifications specially for Baek Taeyang.
"I knew he would send it to me right away."
Melanie thought, of course.
However, Melanie's bright expression upon checking the message window couldn't help but crumple.
(Kim Minsu)
"Ah."
Melanie felt a deep disgust towards humans for the first time.
Kim Minsu, whom she had taken notice of solely because he was said to have the highest potential among innate awakened ones.
Therefore, she had tried to make him the Korean model for Kaiban and intentionally approached him at one time.
Because she had been friendly just once at that time, Kim Minsu had greatly reduced the distance.
It wouldn't have been a problem if they had both reduced the distance, but the problem was that only Kim Minsu was doing so.
Contacting at all hours was basic.
He didn't hesitate to send video links that only he would find funny or pictures of his outfits.
Despite this, the reason she couldn't cut him off was because opinions were coming out that Kim Minsu was 'still' usable.
'Nevertheless', because he's Kim Minsu.
Because of this damn public opinion alone, Melanie was enduring mental suffering and maintaining contact with Minsu.
But.
Now was a very bad timing.
(Kim Minsu)
>I'll contact you later, so please don't contact me first until then.
"Haah..."
"Was it Cadet Kim Minsu?"
"How did you know, Butler Lee?!"
"It was the expression and sigh you always make when contacting Cadet Kim Minsu, so I dared to speak up, though it might be presumptuous of me."
"That's right. Why does the person who should contact me at times like this not come, and only strange guys contact me? Are all men like this?"
"Ahem..."
Butler Lee pondered whether it was right to speak correctly here or if he should speak on behalf of Kim Minsu.
Honestly, he wanted to calmly explain why the young miss was so angry in the first place.
'Is spring finally coming for our young miss...'
She was a young miss who had endured all hardships by plunging into management on her own from a young age.
Even during personality education, she helped the company in her spare time, and despite such incidents, she managed to recover splendidly.
Perhaps because of that, she had not yet tasted the various emotions that peers should enjoy.
'Especially friendship and love, that... certain feeling of being with peers...'
It was nothing but a backlash brought on by excessive desire for achievement.
'Hunter Baek Taeyang might truly awaken the young miss...'
Of course, just listening to the young miss's words, he seemed very promiscuous, but he thought that part was okay.
They're not getting married, and if he just makes her realize what dating and love are for a moment, isn't that enough?
Moreover, even if he's promiscuous, that's just speculation, and his public image is evaluated as perfect even in personality, so it couldn't be better.
'I should push Hunter Baek Taeyang a little here.'
After organizing all his thoughts, Butler Lee opened his mouth.
"Wouldn't it be better to try calling Hunter Baek Taeyang? He might have been really busy and unable to see the message yet."
"Then why does Kim Minsu always say he's busy but contact me every day and talk nonsense?"
"That's... now Cadet Kim Minsu... might have some of that bravado..."
"Bravado?"
"Yes, well... He might want to appeal that he's 'a man who's always busy and has a lot to do'... Appealing something like contacting you even in the midst of all this... I cautiously think it might be something like that."
"...Why is he doing that to me?"
Butler Lee realized his mistake upon hearing Melanie's last answer.
'The young miss is so unaware!'
Even while talking about using beauty strategies, she was no different from a novice when it came to actual romance.
The lowest level among beginners!
Since it was much more helpful to realize such things on one's own rather than being told directly, Butler Lee chose his words carefully.
"Well... perhaps it's a battle of wills between fellow constant activation ability users...?"
"Come on... What kind of battle of wills is it to share weird humor videos every day... It's not even funny."
"Young miss, what's important now isn't Cadet Kim Minsu, but that..."
"I get it! I'll try calling. Ah, um... I wasn't shouting just now, just... you know."
"Yes, yes, it's alright, young miss."
Melanie had no idea why she shouted just now, or why she was nervous about making a call.
'Why am I suddenly trembling?'
I wasn't like this when I called before, what's changed?
Melanie took a deep breath and picked up her phone.
'I'm really annoyed.'
In many ways, Baek Taeyang really irritated Melanie.
Among them, the biggest reason was.
'If I dressed prettily because he told me to come dressed prettily, shouldn't there be something more additional?'
After carefully thinking about it right after clearing the gate, she realized he only gave human compliments.
Even though she herself had forgotten to focus on raising Kaiban Group's awareness at that time.
I dressed so prettily!
'And now having to call first on top of that, it's killing my pride.'
But they say the person who needs something digs the well, so it can't be helped.
Melanie finally called Baek Taeyang.
Ring ring ring, ring ring ring, ring ring ring.
Click.
-Hello? Oh Melanie, what's up?
"Well, um... You weren't looking at the chat, so I was wondering if maybe..."
-Ah, you called because you missed me?
"What...! Just...! No, it's because we need to contact quickly about the moving!"
-Oh, I see.
Talking with this man is getting more and more irritating.
The way he speaks glibly while subtly scratching at the other person.
I hate it.
"What do you mean 'I see'! If you saw the message, please reply! You're coming to Kaiban's side, right?"
-No, there was a lot of talk about that, but I'm just... There's something Bogeum Mall looked into for me, so I'm planning to go there. Still, thanks for caring, Melanie.
"Huh! What do you mean caring, I just... I really prepared reluctantly! If you go to some strange place, it could be very troublesome for our Kaiban Group's image!"
-Speaking of Kaiban, the weapons I used last time seemed to be custom-made for me, do I need to do more tests?
"That's actually one of the reasons I called. It's really not because I missed you!"
-Okay, I get it, so what do you want me to do?
"First, come to our place and..."
Butler Lee inwardly gave a standing ovation as he watched the young miss smiling while talking on the phone.
'Spring is coming for the young miss too.'
A sweet back-and-forth continued in the late evening.
++++++++++++++++++++
"Melanie really... Telling me not to contact her about what to eat... It's fortunate I'm quick-witted, what would have happened if I wasn't?"
The indomitable hero Kim Minsu, completely misunderstanding Melanie's message not to contact her.
He had been maintaining an empty stomach for 4 hours, waiting for Melanie's contact.
