139 – 139. Date Promise
Ryu Tae-hyeon, the first in the freshman year rankings. And the second place in the rankings, midwinter.
The interim settlement of the ranking match between the two ended with Ryu Tae-hyeon’s victory without any change. In the middle of a literal pitch, the two men shook hands courteously. However, unlike Ryu Tae-hyun, his expression in the middle of winter is never good.
“It was a good match. In a few days, it became so strong that I couldn’t even recognize it. I almost lost.”
Ryu Taehyun’s words were sincere. It was a match he could really lose if he hadn’t come up with the idea of crushing the arena floor and attacking with a rock. Whether it’s a doctor stop by the referee or a judgment call by the end of time.
Of course, in both of those cases, you lose because of the rules, but Ryu Tae-hyeon won’t lose the ‘fight’ with mid-winter. At least it was true that midwinter pushed Ryu Tae-hyeon at least within the frame of the match.
That’s why Ryu Tae-hyeon encouraged her with her sincerity.
“… ….”
Even that encouragement felt like a winner’s composure or ridicule in mid-winter. There was not even a hint of resentment on her face. Only her feelings of futility and desolation came out lightly.
As soon as the handshake was over, Midgeoreum hurriedly left the stadium without looking back. She was ashamed and ashamed of her own defeat, as if she did not want to remain here any longer.
Taehyun Ryu looked at him with a slightly bitter face as they left as if they were running away. He took part in the game with all his heart, but apart from that, Ryu Tae-hyeon considered mid-gyeol as a close friend. There was no way I could feel comfortable with that kind of appearance in the middle of winter.
However, I couldn’t catch her because of her. If he indifferently offered even the slightest words of consolation, that would be the victor’s deception and ridicule.
No one else can relieve the sadness of defeat. It was a problem she had to stand on her own. Ryu Tae-hyeon was a man who did not know defeat, but ironically, he only knew how to deal with defeat.
That’s why I was worried. I was worried that Midwyeol, who had a strong sense of self-esteem, would be able to recover from the shock of losing in this match, which he had prepared with all his might.
“In the end, it went the way it was originally.”
Meanwhile, just as Midgeoreum had just left the arena, Ahn Suho and Kang Ha-neul were also leaving the arena on the other side. Unlike the brother and sister Ryu Seol & Ryu Jin, who said they were going to see Ryu Tae-hyun, the two of them had a schedule afterward, so the two of them hurriedly left the stadium. Ahn Su-ho was worried about the state of the mid-winter, but he couldn’t leave her river and sky behind to pursue her.
“It is said that Midwyeol has grown in its own way, but it seems that Ryu Tae-hyun is not good enough. Or did Ryu Tae-hyeon become stronger as Midwinter got stronger?”
“Okay. If you look at the content of the game, it was almost mid-winter. If the flight had been a little more skillful, the midwinter might have won.”
Ahn Su-ho was accurately pointing out the flow of this game.
In the first place, mid-winter was already superior to Ryu Tae-hyeon in terms of psychic compatibility. The reason why she was defeated every time was because of her lack of skill and sense.
However, in terms of technology, it showed the results of development this time, and the sense was also growing day by day. Ahn Su-ho thought that Mid-winter would be able to win against Ryu Tae-hyeon before the end of the first semester.
“A. Still, Ryu Tae-hyun is the main character, so he can’t lose to Mid-winter?”
“I could lose. Because a match and a fight are different.”
“How are they different?”
“Many things are different. If there is no decision board or doctor stop, Ryu Tae-hyun will be able to attack more aggressively. Flying in the middle of winter is not a skill that can be maintained for a long time. Just run away until you run out of stamina and then counterattack. In the ranking match, it seems that I couldn’t use that number because of the game time. Furthermore… ….”
Ahn Su-ho closed his mouth as if he was in deep trouble for a moment, then spoke.
“I still have doubts. Is it true that Ryu Tae-hyun showed his sincerity today?”
“You didn’t mean it?”
“Because Taehyung Ryu is the perfect protagonist. Before the Bloody Winter Break episode, there is no growth event to speak of. If Ryu Tae-hyeon already has the combat power of winter vacation……. The appearance in today’s match probably wasn’t sincere. In the first place, I hardly ever used Talisman.”
“Talisman could have been deliberately omitted because it was a ranking match. It’s cowardly to win by tempo.”
“…… Is that what you want me to hear?”
Ahn Su-ho enjoyed the benefits of tempal greatly in all kinds of fights, starting with special countermeasures and criminal convictions. When he asked, frowning, Kang Ha-neul smiled brightly and crossed his arms to Ahn Su-ho.
“A. Oppa, everything was in real life, not competitions. That and this case are different. And originally, it is a national rule that the main character of the ice water is to win and win with the temp, the skill, and the skill. Isn’t it?”
“What is win-win? From the beginning until now, it seems like you’ve only struggled.”
“Still, isn’t it a win-win in terms of love? In just two or three months, you completed the capture of two heroines.”
The main character, the heroine, the strategy. Kang Ha-neul made jokes about Ahn Su-ho’s life as if it were a novel. Actually, it was a life that was possessed by a novel, so it was half true.
“…… By the way, the main heroine is me.”
Kang Ha-neul, who added that, grabbed Ahn Su-ho’s arms as if he would never let go.
He said that he was the main heroine, that is, he treated Ji Ye-won as a sub-hero. He probably didn’t say it out of malice, but it was a bit uncomfortable to hear for Ahn Su-ho, who loves Ji Ye-won as much as Kang Ha-neul.
‘I can understand how you feel, but… ….’
In Kang Ha-neul’s eyes, Ji Ye-won is just a character, whereas he himself is from the ‘real world’ like Ahn Su-ho, so he was confident that he was the main heroine. In the first place, from the establishment of the present relationship, Kang Ha-neul’s sense of superiority was also a virtue that worked knowingly or unknowingly.
But.
– In a pinch.
“Ugh?”
Ahn Suho, instead of answering Kang Ha-neul’s declaration of being the main heroine, smiled silently and slightly pinched her cheek. Startled, the river sky narrowed her eyes and fired at her.
“…… How is it, Geohye?”
Because her cheeks were pulled, Kang Haneul’s pronunciation was crushed cutely.
“Don’t try to line up like that. Because I love you and Yewon the same. So, can’t we get along a little better?”
“Yes, I have no reason to fight with you, but… ….”
Kang Ha-neul turned her head around and shook An Su-ho’s fingers. Her cheeks, which had been pulled up, bounced back and tangled.
“…… Oppa, I can’t give up the position of the number 1 girlfriend. It’s late in the order of dating, but I’m the jeongsil, and I’m the main.”
“To me, both are the same.”
Kang Ha-neul, who had closed his mouth at Ahn Su-ho’s criticism, finally let out a deep sigh.
“…… My brother is also very knowledgeable. Anyway, oppa and I are just the two of us right now, but even here, you could say something empty, ‘Yes, Haneul, you are the first.’ I just wanted to hear that.”
As he said, the main heroine declaration a while ago was not a grandiose reason to say that he would be ahead of Ji Ye-won, but it was nothing more than a desire to play a fool with Ahn Su-ho. However, Ahn Su-ho was thorough.
“Sorry. But after dating them, I swore to myself never to lie to them again.”
“It’s okay to tell good lies!”
“Then is it okay if I tell Yewon that I love Yewon more than you do when I’m alone with Yewon?”
“Ugh… ….”
Kang Ha-neul was speechless as if he hadn’t thought of that part. After weighing meaningless scales in her head for a long time, she pouted her lips and answered.
“…… I hate that. Even if it’s a place I can’t hear, I can’t stand it when my brother says he likes Yewon more than me.”
Her head jerked as if the river sky was pouting. However, the arms of Ahn Soo-ho were still unresolved. He pretends to be upset, but he doesn’t seem to be offended.
Seeing that, Ahn Soo-ho let out a small sigh of relief. About 30 seconds for him to look at Kang Ha-neul’s profile without a word.
“Brother. Where are we going to play this Friday?”
“Huh?”
Breaking silence for a moment, Kang Ha-neul suddenly proposed.
“Friday? If it’s Friday, you mean the day after tomorrow? Didn’t we just go to the amusement park together on Saturday?”
“You can meet on Friday and meet on Saturday too. Why. Do you not like it?”
“No, I don’t hate it… ….”
“Then it doesn’t matter. Because that exam is over on Friday afternoon. Let’s go on a date together to commemorate the end of the exam. On Saturday, I won’t be able to play properly because I have to steal the original silver.”
There was a reason for that sudden date request. It was a kind of reward mentality. Feeling jealous that Ahn Su-ho didn’t match his rhythm, he told her to soothe him with a date. It was childish and childish tantrums.
Ahn Su-ho noticed the inside story. So, if possible, she wanted to accept her group.
“Sorry. I already have an appointment for Friday night.”
“…… With Yewon unnie?”
“No. There is a party for the guard team. What kind of commendation did So-yeon receive this time?”
“Soyeon unnie received a commendation…… Are you receiving?”
Kang Ha-neul asked with an expression that he did not understand. She hadn’t known him for long, but she knew very well that a person named Chae-yeon was not a person worthy of commendation.
“How did that happen… ….”
Ahn Su-ho explained to Kang Ha-neul about the terrorist incident that occurred in the United States and the flow that followed.

Listening to the explanation with a face of disbelief, she put on a shocked expression when she heard the story of the press conference, which was a mess. Had disappeared
“…… Is this all true? You’re not lying on purpose to hide from me that you’re dating Yewon, are you?”
“It’s all true. If she had intended to lie in the first place, she would have made it more plausible.”
“That’s right… ….”
In that one reaction, Kang Ha-neul’s view of the vegetable-yeon was contained as it was. Even though she had only met two or three times, it seemed that her image of Chae-yeon had already plummeted to the depths of the abyss.
“Dinning party…… If so, shouldn’t she be left out?”
“I guess so. It’s a team dinner, so there are only 7 people including me. In the first place, dinner parties weren’t that frequent. After all, at least one person is on duty.”
Ahn Suho also didn’t really want to go to a dinner party. No one else knows, but a drinking party with Min Chae-ryeong and Chae-yeon. Because it was obvious that it would be difficult and tiring in many ways.
But there is a place that a member of society must not fall into. When Ahn Su-ho said embarrassingly, Kang Ha-neul replied weakly.
“Then I can’t help it.”
A look of regret was evident on her face. At that time, Ahn Suho suddenly remembered the map that Arael had given him.
“Not on Friday, but… …. If it’s okay on Sunday, would you like to go to Seoul together?”
“Seoul?”
“Yes. I went there once for a strategy meeting, and it was similar to Seoul, the world I used to live in, but very different. Since you originally lived in Seoul, I thought it would be nice to go on a day trip together sometime soon.”
The ‘spirit disguised as a human and settled in this world’ that Ariel spoke of lived in Jongno-gu, Seoul. If you enjoy sightseeing in Seoul with Kang Ha-neul, meet the spirit, and receive the spirit’s protection or blessing, it will kill two birds with one stone.
As such, Ahn Su-ho said lightly, hoping that it was going well, but Kang Ha-neul, who heard the words, could not hide the joy that filled his face.
“Good! Let’s go Seoul together! My brother and I are going alone, right?”
“Sure. Of course, just the two of us.”
“Then it’s a perfect date! No, is it a couple trip? Anyway, I’m really looking forward to it! Book your tickets today!”
“Don’t rush, take it slow. You never know what’s going to happen at the amusement park on Saturday. I’m glad it ended safely, but maybe you or I could get hurt…….”
At those words, Kang Ha-neul’s expression calmed down for an instant. But the next moment, she responded with a warm smile.
“It’s okay if you don’t get hurt. After all, you know what’s going to happen there that day. Don’t worry, everything will be fine. We think together about where we will go to play on Sunday.”
It may sound like an insensitive comment at first glance, but it was Kang Ha-neul’s own encouragement and support.
Everything will be fine. So don’t worry.
Feeling that warm heart, Ahn Suho smiled. His hand gently caresses Kang Ha-neul’s nape.
“Yes. Everything will be fine thank you. Sky.”
After hearing about the difficulty adjustment from Arael, he couldn’t be optimistic, but he didn’t show it in front of the river sky. Even if you show off, Kang Ha-neul will only worry about you.
“Yes. Everything will be fine.”
Unaware of his intentions, Kang Ha-neul grabbed Ahn Su-ho’s hand and encouraged him like that.
