After a few seconds of silence, the man extended his hand.
“Hello. I’m Kim Minho, Juhee’s cousin.”
Huh, a handshake too? Ina felt a bit taken aback but extended her hand since she couldn’t refuse.
“Nice to meet you. I’m Seo Ina.”
“Seo Ina?”
Minho’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Why? Oppa, do you know Ina?”
With a gesture for Juhee to sit down, Minho sat next to Juhee.
“Ah, she’s polite. Nice to meet you, Seo Ina.”
“Why does he say that when meeting me? The timing is unbelievable.”
“Then, don’t you want coffee, oppa? I’ll buy you a cup.”
When Juhee tried to take out her wallet, Minho stood up, stopping her.
“I should buy for you. But since you’ve already had coffee, I’ll get a piece of cake or something. Wait a moment.”
Without delay, Minho went to the counter, and at that moment, Ina’s phone rang.
It was Juwon.
“Hello?”
Are you still at the coffee shop?
“Yeah, still at the coffee shop.”
I think I need about 30 more minutes.
At that moment, Minho brought the cake to the table.
“Thanks, oppa.”
Juhee said, smiling at Minho.
Through Juhee’s voice, Juwon immediately inquired through the phone.
What’s going on? Who just called you oppa?
“Oh, well, my cousin oppa came.”
Cousin oppa?
“Yeah.”
Juhee, can you switch with someone?
“Juhee, Juwon is asking you to switch.”
When Ina handed the phone to Juhee, she took it and brought it to her ear.
“Hey, Joo Won. The distinguished lawyer Kim Minho is here in this place right now. Over!”
Kim Byeon? Is Minho hyung there?
“That’s right. Over.”
Juwon said nothing and then let out a short sigh.
Where are you? Send me the location. I’ll come right now.
After saying that, the call was abruptly cut off.
Juhee looked at her phone with a perplexed expression.
“What’s up with this kid?”
“Why?”
When Ina asked, Juhee handed the phone to Ina and said,
“He asked where we are, then hung up.”
“Huh? He said he needed about 30 more minutes to finish work.”
Upon hearing that, Juhee glanced at Minho and chuckled.
“Ah, really, Joo, this kid keeps doing cute things to not match us. What’s wrong with him?”
“What are you talking about?”
Minho, who hadn’t understood the situation since earlier, asked Juhee.
“Oppa, Joo Won says. He’s totally falling for our Seo Ina here and can’t pull himself together. What do you think of that, Seo Ina?”
“What?”
“Juhee.”
Both Minho and Ina said Juhee’s name simultaneously.
When Ina looked at Juhee with an embarrassed expression, Juhee handed the phone to Ina and whispered,
“Hey, Joo Won. This place is currently occupied by the high-profile Kim Minho. Over!”
Kim Byeon? Is Minho hyung there?
“That’s right. Over.”
Juwon said nothing and then let out a short sigh.
Where are you? Send me the location. I’ll come right now.
After saying that, the call was abruptly cut off.
Juhee looked at her phone with a perplexed expression.
“What’s up with this kid?”
“Why?”
When Ina asked, Juhee handed the phone to Ina and said,
“He asked where we are, then hung up.”
“Huh? He said he needed about 30 more minutes to finish work.”
Upon hearing that, Juhee glanced at
When Minho seemed hesitant, Ina asked instead.
“By any chance… the lawyer who Juwon asked for on the phone… that’s you, right?”
“…Yes, it is.”
Ina’s mouth slightly opened in surprise and gratitude.
“What on earth is this about?”
When Juhee asked with a puzzled look, Ina slowly explained the whole story.
After hearing the story, Juhee looked at Minho and exclaimed, “Wow! So you were the hero who took care of that trash?”
“Hero? Not really. I just gave a brief explanation of what punishment he might face if the charges were admitted, and he was shaking in fear.”
Oh, why is embarrassment always my part…
Ina felt a sense of shame as if Park Junghoon, who was trembling with fear, was right in front of her.
“No, you did well! Oppa’s phone call was a powerful blow.”
Ina said to Minho with a face turned red with embarrassment.
“It’s late, but really… thank you. I wanted to meet you and treat you to a meal or something back then, but he said you were so busy, so I couldn’t visit.”
“Did Juwon say that?”
“Yes? Oh, yes. So, I thought of buying coffee and visiting your office, but he said you were too busy.”
“Juwon?”
“Yes.”
“Well, that guy.”
Minho chuckled as if he found it amusing.
“This Juwon, seriously, he’s hilarious.”
Not understanding what he meant, Ina giggled, and Juhee, who was next to her, burst into laughter.
“Right? He’s totally hilarious! He did his best not to show Ina. Wow, Juwon is so thorough! Thorough!”
“When he was young, he was the type who never let anyone touch his favorite toys. If someone tried to touch them, he’d growl like he was going to bite.”
Minho looked at Ina with a strange gaze and said.
With that look, Ina felt like she had become the ‘toy’ Minho was talking about, and her cheeks suddenly turned red.
“He never used to call often, but suddenly, he called and asked for a favor. I wondered what it was about… now I understand.”
Minho laughed again, seemingly astonished.
“Who is Seo Ina?” he asked.
“Well, she’s just a friend,” Juwon replied.
“Haha, what a funny guy this Juwon is.”
Ina looked away in embarrassment, and at that moment, the door of the coffee shop opened.
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
