Rebirth: King to Superstar Novel

Chapter 37 - Slap To Hae Yongsun's Face


Joon-won shrugged it off and continued to listen to his music, waiting for the message from Jung-hwa. But his shoulder was tapped once again, and this time harder. He turned around and noticed the devil of his life for the past 3 days.

‘Why the hell am I coming across this woman so many times only in 3 days?’ he cursed as he looked at Seo Hea-Jung, who had the same sly grin on her face and also Hae Yongsun behind her, with veins poking out of his forehead.

He stood up and said with a smile which couldn’t be faker, “Oh, Seniors. Please have the seat. I won’t disturb you both and go somewhere else.” and tried to walk away but his hand got caught immediately. He turned around and saw Hea-Jung walking to the front of the seat and patting the free space with her free hand.

“Oh, Junior. This must be destiny. I came early and noticed it was the Star Batch drama. But it was so boring and no one was acting as well as you, so I came out. To only see my lonely junior sitting alone. So, how could I not great you as a good Senior? Now come and sit, your drama won’t be starting anytime soon.”

Looking at his hand, which got caught, and then at the fuming Hae Yongsun, he sighed. He didn’t understand why this girl was so determined. He knew she was only doing it for fun, but her fun wasn’t fun for him.

“Senior, let me go. It’s almost like you are following me around. Have some quality time with your friend here who is always around you. I am sure he would be very happy to accompany you.”

He took her hand off his and pointed at the fuming man behind her.

As soon as he was done, Hae Yongsun cut in before Hea-Jung could reply, “Yes, Hea-Jung. Let’s go out and enjoy today. It’s a waste of time to even see these dramas which look worse than cartoon series played on the tv. This guy doesn’t even appreciate the amount of attention you give him. Leave the poor beggar and come with me.” She reached out and touched her hand.

Hearing his words she turned towards the hand he touched and said in the most detached and cold voice Joon-won heard, “Leave it.” And Hae Yongsun’s face went red from shame and left her hand.

She turned towards Joon-won as her expression went 180 degrees from before and said, “You don’t need to worry, little brother. There are only a handful of people who can even advise me to do something. When I do something, it means I have thought through it. So come and sit, let me hear that music you were listening to earlier.”

Joon-won sighed at how persistent this woman was. First, he felt a bit of hate at how annoying she was, but that slowly changed. He was more curious about her. Why is she like that? He could clearly see she holds herself in his regards and wouldn’t let anyone shame her. But when he did it, she would always laugh it off.

Just because he was curious didn’t mean she did not irritate him. He sighed and sat next to her as her sly smile became brighter. She directly took out an earbud from him and used it without his permission.

As they both sat on the same bench sharing the same headphones. Hae Yongsan was completely fuming when he saw the scene. He didn’t understand why she insisted on talking to a nobody in the university instead of hanging out with him. He simply stood still and watched with hate towards Joon-won.

Joon-won, who felt his gaze, sighed and turned towards the reason beside him. He whispered in a low voice, “You are bringing me too many problems. I don’t like it, so stay away from me.” Making things clear.

Hea-Jung who heard him stretched her body and turned around to see Hae Yongsun’s distorted face. Her face turned normal and she said, “Yongsun, why don’t you go and do something else instead of standing there like a statue staring at both of us. It’s making me uncomfortable. So go away, I’ll call you when their drama is done.” Waving her hand.

Hae Yongsun’s face turned red from shame seeing how disrespectful she was in front of a junior, not giving him even a bit of a face. He grits his teeth and said, “But madam told me..”

“I know what she said. She only told you to bring me back home safely. So you can go back. It’s not like my little brother can do anything to me, see how skinny he is. So go away before my mood worsens.” She grabbed Joon-won’s hand and showed his skinny arms.

He grits his teeth and turned around only after throwing a hateful glare at Joon-won. Joon-won sighed and said with irritation, “Why did you just poke the bear? He was already angry, and you just made him angrier. Do you not even think before you say?”

She glanced at him sideways and said, “Why are you scared of that idiot? He is the dumbest person I ever saw in my 21 years of living.”

He glanced at her and said, “He might be nothing to you, but not to me. Just because he can’t do anything to you doesn’t mean he can’t do anything to me. Not everyone is as rich and privileged as you. So think before you do anything.”

Hearing his annoyance, she said, “Oh, don’t be angry. If he does anything to my little brother, won’t I tear off his skin? So don’t worry.”

“So something should happen to me? I don’t like to take my luck too far.” And she ignored it completely as she closed her eyes.
