Wang Jiyu and Gong Ju saw what was happening clearly and were surprised to see how their famous senior could act out of control like a beast. Gong Ju who caught the conversation of the people around him started to find it funnier.
He nudged Jiyu's arm. "Heh.. I didn't expect Han Sunbae to really care about Song Sunbae. Seeing this you're still planning to act unbothered?"
Jiyu raised the corners of his lips but no smile appeared. He brushed his hair back. His eyes didn't show the slightest interest in what had just happened.
"That woman is not worthy enough to get my care," Jiyu said while looking at Gong Ju arrogantly. "It's her luck if she catches my attention a little bit. Wasn't that what she wanted until now?"
Even though the man beside him was very arrogant and selfish, what he said was true.
From the beginning, no one could make him feel guilty over something.
That was Wang Jiyu.
Gong Ju laughed. "Hehe, these disgusting people are so arrogant just because they could enter this bar. I'm quite surprised I would see Han Sunbae in this bar. I don't think he likes that kind of fun."
Wang Jiyu threw a few won onto the bar counter. His beautiful smile made those around him stunned. "You are right. It would be fun to know what kind of business he had to make him willing to come to a club. But I have no interest in finding out."
Gong Ju wanted to open his mouth but was interrupted by a ringing telephone signaling an incoming message. He looked at the contents of the message and then sighed softly.
"Bro, I think I have to go first."
Jiyu nodded and didn't move as if he wanted to stay in this place a little longer.
Gong Ju walked towards the bar door while typing something on his cellphone so he didn't notice someone just passed him at the place where Kang Cheol and his friends were sitting before.

Gin was surprised when she heard the sound of hitting that disturbed her sleep. When she looked from behind the shelf, Gin found Jun-woo turned into a madman beating all of them. But after seeing her friend go all crazy for the sake of her, Gin did not move a single inch. She didn't have the intention to stop Jun-woo and let him vent his anger. Instead, she smiled and seemed to enjoy the view.
Gin sighed when hearing Junwoo's voice being suppressed through his teeth. This stupid Buddy always acted like he was so indifferent in front of her but behind her back, he actually quite cared as a friend.
Gin lowered her head so that her face could not be seen with the hood covering the upper half of her face. She did it not to hide out of guilt and shame but so that Jun-woo would not realize that she was here and let him feel unnecessary guilt if he knew that Gin also heard all those words. She was sure Jun-woo didn't realize she was on this side with this lighting condition. It wasn't until Jun-woo finally left the bar that Gin raised her head.
Poor Han Jun. He must be shocked.
"Well, it's surprising that Han Sunbae really cared about that woman. This time you still act unbothered?"
"That woman wasn't good enough to get my care. It's her luck if she catches my attention a little. Wasn't that what she wanted until now?"
Just as Gin intended to stand up and pay for the damage Jun-woo had caused after seeing the bar manager's dispirited face, she heard some dudes talk behind her back.
Gin licked her fang as her eyes flashed with enthusiasm. Could she say she was very lucky today to get three surprises in a row? Without any hesitation, Gin arrogantly passed Gong Ju without fear of being noticed and headed straight to the bartender's table.
Alright Wang Jiyu, I wonder how lucky I am to catch your interest after so long being forgotten?
As Wang Jiyu played with the whiskey glass by sliding his finger over the surface of the glass, he suddenly heard the sound of someone talking to the male bartender.
"Hey, go see your manager and give him this money to pay for the damage from the fight earlier."
The voice sounded very familiar. Jiyu's fingers stopped twisting. He lifted his head only to see the back of someone who had walked towards the door.
Something crossed his mind. Jiyu questioned if she listened and saw everything including what Jiyu said?

"Let me go, you mf!" Kang Cheol shouted as he was dragged out with his body aching from Junwoo's punch.
His friends weren't even better. They were still groaning in pain. Lucky that the ambulance came quickly. The medics immediately carried them into the car.
One of the bodyguards looked at Kang Cheol with a sharp gaze as he said, "From today you are banned from coming to Sun's."
Kang Cheol was angry. It was his second time in the Sun's but because of that damned man he didn't know, he was being humiliated like this.
He spat. "An ordinary bar like this dares to act picky."
The bodyguard didn't bother to respond either. He just glared at them before turning his back away from them.
Kang Cheol wanted to hit those people but he was called by the medics to come in, so he dragged his feet heavily. But after only a few steps, a hand gripped his shoulder tightly from behind.
"Now what?!" shouted Kang Cheol in frustration. He thought it was the bodyguard earlier.
Turning back, what he saw instead was Song Gin, the person he had never thought of meeting face to face.
Gin tilted her head and smirked. Instead of acting indifferent, he trembled even more as he stared at Gin in horror.
Kang Cheol tried to go but Gin grabbed him so powerful, tightening her grip on Kang Cheol's shoulder until Kang Cheol screamed in pain.
"W-what do you want, Song?!"
"Easy, it's not that much. Since I wouldn't get anything from a dead piece of meat like you," Gin said in a low voice.
"Y-you.." Kang Cheol stuttered, unable to say a word.
Kang Cheol was really scared. He didn't miss the ruthless gleam in Song Gin's eyes. Even though Kang Cheol was so triggered while talking about Song Gin and insulted her like an animal, it didn't mean he dared to tell her directly. He would never be able to forget Song Gin's cruelty when she was in middle school. If she was still so bloodthirsty back then, Kang Cheol didn't want to bet whether the current Song Gin was different from the old Song Gin.
Gin never intended to play with Kang Cheol from the start, if it wasn't because Han Jun's gloomy face flashed in his mind. Gin, considering Kang Cheol's nature, probably wouldn't let Han Jun go that easily if they met again. So to prevent this annoying 'fly' ruining the mood, Gin thought it was better to remind this stupid man for a bit.
"Hey, Kang Cheol," Gin said slowly, dragging her words for a long time.
Kang Cheol gulped nervously. He waited for Gin to finish her words.
"The man who beat you earlier was my people. You know I've never been so generous, don't you? So you know what you have to do, right?"
How could Kang Cheol still pretend not to understand. He quickly nodded hoping Gin would let him off the hook and leave.
"Good. What an obedient child. If I knew you were hanging around and throwing tantrums around me and my people, your corpse wouldn't even leave in peace."
Kang Cheol's eyes trembled. He nodded in fear.
"Tell those stupid friends of yours too. Now get lost."
Gin released her grip and pushed Kang Cheol so that the man fell down. The ambulance officer who had been watching all along immediately took Kang Cheol in his arms.
Gin held her forehead.
Damn it, wasn't my goal here to refresh? Why today's incident is making my head hurt. Hah.
