Sister of the Ranking 1st (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 171

“Truly, my worries are a luxury.”

“…Is worrying that your little sister might become a mass murderer really a ‘luxury’ concern?”

“Well, you didn’t actually do anything, did you? So yes, it’s a luxury worry.”

Cheon Shin Woo, who had been seeking advice from Baek Jang Mi, wondered if his troubles were really that indulgent.
