A week later

The police reported that Song Yoonjae was arrested for intentionally causing injury, and this case is related to Kang Taechun, who is still in detention awaiting trial. Sin is more sinful, but what makes people react even more violently when the victim is the CEO of Diamond Star - Han Yumin.

Why did Han Yumin get caught up in this assassination, didn't she have an accident? Everything was noisy, causing journalists to dig up clear information.

This time, the representative of Diamond Star did not answer the public's questions, but the shocking incident could not hide the boys and girls of the Diamond Star family.

...

Somin had a headache and wanted to die, now suddenly from where the news of Han Yumin's assassination appeared, causing her to be shocked by the eyes that wanted to pierce the flesh of the girls standing next to her.

- UNNIE! Wasn't it just an accident, now it's turned into an assassination like this?  - Yujin confused reading the news.

- This time i really don't know anything! The staff from other departments, they also receive the same news as me, no one knows what the truth is behind? - Somin also only told the truth, in addition to those who were explained by Yumin who knew the whole story, the rest were surprised by the current situation.

- So can we visit Yumin yet?

- We want to see Yumin now!

Eunbi just asked Somin a question when not far away gathered the Wanna One boys who were arguing with their manager.

The 12 girls continued to look out at the company hall, the girls of IOI rushed in and stood next to IZ*ONE looking at Somin, followed by the boys X1.

If there is a hole here Somin will definitely jump to avoid the situation that is happening, now there are 45 people waiting for her to explain and decide everything, this attracts the attention of the Diamond Star staff passed by.

- Are you guys planning to have a party here or what, but there are so many gatherings? - Lucy was in time to go to rescue Somin who was sweating awkwardly.

- OMG! Lucy unnie you saved my life! - Somin seemed to want to cry and ran over to hug Lucy's hand.

- Is it that stressful? Lightly let go!  - Lucy reluctantly smiled and removed Somin's hand to pull the distance.

- Unnie! Yumin didn't have any serious problems right? - Minju realized that Lucy was the most familiar with Yumin, and asked in a worried mood.

- Don't talk like you want her to have serious problems! - Lucy smiled and shook her head.

- So we can see Yumin now?  - Somi immediately consulted, the feeling of being hidden from such an important matter makes a friend like her quite uncomfortable.

- Are you all going together?  - Lucy raised an eyebrow, even if Yumin's hospital room is a vip type, there is not enough space for nearly 50 people like this!

- Then... - Yohan stammered.

- Each group sends a representative to visit the president or let the leader visit the hospital on behalf of the group!  Then the leaders will come back and tell you the situation, okay?  - Lucy looked at everyone thinking at the same time, while no one noticed, Lucy pursed her lips and looked at a person with a pale face.

- That's kinda okay! Everyone should go back to rest first, the leaders follow Lucy to the hospital to visit the president and then come back! - Somin also agreed with Lucy's opinion.

- Nae! Just listen to Secretary Im!  - Jisung nodded

- Now let's go, the others follow the manager back!  - Lucy led the four leaders to the car.

Wonyoung looked in the direction Lucy had just left and pouted unhappily, she was also worried about Yumin, but everyone agreed with Lucy's opinion earlier, so she was afraid to ask to come along.

- Let's go Wonyoung!  - Chaeyeon grabbed the maknae's hand and was still standing there, following everyone.

...

The past time of rest, Yumin really obediently listened to the doctor's instructions and followed, so the wound made good progress and quickly healed.

Feeling that her body was getting better, Yumin was bored with nothing to do, so she asked Junho to bring her laptop from her apartment to the hospital for her to kill time.

Woohyun, Yohan, and Myungsoo often come here to discuss Yumin's handover, now they not only handle the work at Diamond Star but also manage Yumin's outside business, so it is indispensable.  her direction.

- Regarding the bidding for the New Year project, you contacted my uncle Jang Sungho for help!  That land I plan to build more bases for future plans!

- Yohan, from now until the end of the year, the human resources manager will summarize the items to prepare for the shareholder meeting when I return!

- Myungsoo! You arranged and selected suitable contracts to avoid affecting year-end plans!

- We got it! - All three answered in unison

Yumin was about to give some instructions when the door to the room rang a few times, Lucy took the lead, leading Nayoung, Jisung, Eunbi and Seungwoo behind to enter.

- Don't bother you guys? There are some guests who want to see you!  - Lucy looked at Yumin while discussing with Woohyun and group and asked.

- First, everyone just follow the items I say!  Other things I will email everyone!  - Yumin knew that she couldn't continue, so she let Woohyun's group go.

- Then we go first!  President rest early! - The three of them left the hospital room.

Lucy went to fix the pillow for Yumin, then went to pour water for guests.

- Thank you to everyone who came to visit me!  - Yumin opens politely, but it seems that some people don't.

- This kid! You thought you was at work, talking like that!  - Jisung is the oldest of the group, he went to stand beside her and rubbed Yumin's low tied hair making them messy.

- We were worried about you, so we discussed it together!  Too bad everyone couldn't come in full! - Nayoung explained.

- When we heard the news of the president's accident, we were bewildered a lot, today, with the assassination of the president, it's even more unbelievable!  - Seungwoo standing at the other end of the bed said.

- Can you tell me a little bit about that incident? - Everyone is worried, of course, but Eunbi alone knows that the children at home are more anxious than anyone else.

- It's just that something unexpected happened!  I myself didn't think I would have this problem! - Yumin smiled helplessly.

The four leaders all understood that Yumin didn't want them to delve into this, so they only chatted and asked Yumin a few questions after that because so she could rest, they said goodbye to each other and returned to the apartment.

Lucy had been standing to one side and watching Yumin talk to the leaders without interrupting a word, until there were only two people left in the room, Lucy smiled and sat next to Yumin.

- You don't want to explain it clearly to them? Anyway, they are your best friends!

- They are not like you and everyone else! You, Junho and Heechul are the most effective assistants in fields outside the company's control compared to Woohyun group who are important members of the company, the reliability is different! - Yumin smiled and looked absently in the air.

- What about idols? - Lucy tilted her head curiously at Yumin's thoughts.

- If you guys are considered as a family, then they are really friends that I always care about and protect! Their strengths are complementary parts for my youth, because I decided to become the leader of Diamond Star, so I gave up my inherent hobby!

Therefore, the reunion of all four groups is probably because she doesn't want to see her musical trust broken, so she has to cling to them as her hope. Inside Yumin is still a bit of soul passionate about music and singing!

- Are you saying that you are preserving the purity of an idol?

What Yumin goes through is definitely something idols have never experienced before, it's not as simple as a trainee who doesn't get a chance to debut or an idol who gets caught up in rumors having to deal with public opinion.  a very expensive price, if you can't let go of your innocence and honesty, you will become a weakness in the world where people trample each other to live.

- I don't want them to lose faith in this life! Too harsh and cruel, I want to protect them and bring back the things that make them believe and confidently shine on stage!

- Don't compare idols like children! Most of them are older than you, so they also understand that in order to get what they want, they have to give up everything! But they are luckier than others because they live under the same roof of Diamond Star! - Lucy reached out and pulled a few strands of hair that were still falling in front of Yumin's eyes.

Lucy is right, not everyone can find an ideal company. Big companies like SM, YG, JYP, Bighit,... all have high standards for selecting trainees, and even if they're trainees, they won't be able to fully debut. So when signing contracts with small companies, there will be many cases, one can debut or like the case of Kwon Juri, because of the dream, you have to change your life!

- Ah! I have something interesting to tell you! - Seeing Yumin's mood drop, Lucy suddenly smiled mischievously.

- Look, I know you're thinking miscellaneously! Say it!  - Yumin was also amused by Lucy's expression, so she relaxed her facial muscles and waited to hear the story.

- You can't see the look on her face when she knows she can't visit you! - Lucy remembers, chuckling.

- Who do you say? Wonyoung! - Yumin wondered but quickly realized who Lucy wanted to talk to.

- Wow! Such a good mind! Yes, that's her! At that time, her face was so sad, she left with no life!  - Lucy seems quite content to see someone suffer.

- You talk too much! Only know how to make fun of others!  - Yumin gave up on Lucy and smiled in memory of someone.

- You also feel heart bloom when you hear me talk about Wonyoung! - Lucy pursed her lips.

...

Back to the girls, it's already late afternoon because of the sudden morning event, so they'll temporarily postpone the schedule to tomorrow so everyone has some leisure time.

Eunbi returned not long ago, she changed clothes at home and then went to the living room to meet the children.

- Eunbi unnie! How is Yumin?  - Minju first asked.

- She was shot from behind by the killer, fortunately Yumin moved in time, causing the warhead to change direction and pinned to the left waist without any sequelae!  - Eunbi just heard Yumin's direct report but was also nervous, if Yumin didn't get up, the bullet would have gone straight to the head.

- It's dangerous! - Hyewon shivered, frowning.

- It must be painful, Yumin is so strong! - Sakura feels poor for Yumin.

- But she's fine, so let's just be happy, don't be so nervous!  - Yujin, after sitting quietly for a while, spoke up to cheer everyone up.

- YES! Maybe in a few days Yumin will be discharged from the hospital, then we can meet her!  - Yena looked around said.

All of girls nodded in agreement with Yena's words, sitting for a while, each member separated from their work.

Hitomi, Hyewon, Nako and Yuri sit and watch the drama. Sakura ran to the game room, Chaeyeon also went with Sakura, but she sat on the bed and pulled out some English books to learn to improve her language. Yujin, Yena and Chaewon turned on Vlive to set up a talk show with fans. Eunbi took advantage of the opportunity to go out to practice pilates.

Wonyoung went back to her room to turn on her laptop to watch movies on Netflix, Minju also followed and lay beside her. The two watched a few movies, but in reality, they didn't put their mind to the movie, so after watching half of the episode, they were bored to change the movie, so in just two hours, both of them watched 10 movies.

- Do you look depressed? Want to talk a little bit? - Minju is as always gentle and caring for everyone.

- Does it look that obvious? - Wonyoung laughs while covering her face.

- It's written all over your face!  - Minju hugged Wonyoung's face and rubbed it.

- Unnie! - Wonyoung put her hand down on the blanket, she cooed.

- Here i am! - Minju moved closer to her, pulling her to rest her head on her shoulder.

- Have you ever liked someone?  - Minju was motionless for a few seconds upon hearing such a question.

- I'm just curious! - Looking at Minju, she knew her wanted to ask, so she answered right away, she want to clarify her feelings now.

- If i say no, it's a lie! I liked someone... - Until now, she still like but she doesn't know when to express it.

- Tell me about how you felt when you realized you liked that person!  - Wonyoung thinks it must be someone Minju knew before because Minju is now an idol, so she can't reveal who she likes and usually Wonyoung doesn't see Minju being close to a male idol.

- I felt my emotions change abnormally when I was a trainee and going to school! - Minju smiled in remembrance.

- I know it now! Tell me more! - Wonyoung snaps her fingers excitedly.

- At first, I just thought it was simply friendship, so it's normal for intimate touches like hugging, holding hands or even kissing on the cheek! - Minju's mind suddenly moved to the dark room at the "Produce 48" filming headquarters.

- Until one day i realize it's not the same! Every time I met her, i was always in a happy mood and a little nervous, maybe i was always waiting every day to meet that person.

- Sometimes it feels uncomfortable when that person is close to someone other than me!  And a little pity when that person accidentally forgets me!  - Wonyoung can understand this because she has experienced that feeling.

- Does that person feel your feelings or is there any sign that he or she likes you? - Wonyoung first experienced this sweet emotion when she was in high school, so she's really looking forward to what happens next.

- I don't know that person has the same feelings as me, but I know she doesn't feel this special love of mine! - Minju smiled sadly.

- That person must be an idiot to not realize your feelings! - Wonyoung raised her nose, a person suddenly reminded her in her mind.

- Maybe i hid it too well that the person didn't notice!  - Minju shook her head not thinking like Wonyoung.

So, have you confessed to that guy yet? - Wonyoung asked blankly, but right from the start, she misshaped the object that Minju described.

- Not yet! Until now, I have not had a chance to seriously talk to that person! - Minju sighed, also did not explain that the person she likes is a girl.

- What a pity! I think if possible, you should frankly admit your feelings for him, no matter what the answer is, it's better than carrying in your heart a small hope that is not possible!  - Wonyoung from the perspective of a listener, she expertly gives opinions.

- Wonyoung already likes someone, right? - Minju nodded. Better to be rejected for clarity than to hope only to know.

- Huh? Well... - Wonyoung can't argue, maybe she like that person too.

While Wonyoung was still choosing to explain to Minju, she saw that her got up and patted she on the head and left the room, not seeming to want to pursue this matter further.

She breathed a sigh of relief at the same time with a serious face, a determined look in her heart.  Putting the junk items still on the bed to clean up, Wonyoung got out of bed and went to the bustling living room outside.

Somin was fully dressed in windproof clothing, put a few bags of food and drinks on the table, making the girls excitedly surround the table, especially Hyewon, who was using fiery eyes to shine on the dishes being displayed move out.

- Unnie, are you going anywhere else? - Wonyoung looked at Somin who still hadn't taken off her jacket, then opened her mouth to ask.

- Still! Tonight I'm taking Lucy unnie's place to watch over Yumin! - Somin let the girls eat and drink freely, went down to the kitchen to find water to drink.

- Aren't you coming home? - Wonyoung follows Somin.

- Um! Now, I stopped by to see you all for a while and then went to the hospital, not going home!  - Somin put down the empty glass, answered Wonyoung.

- Unnie! May you allow me to come with you? - Wonyoung rubs the brim of her t-shirt, she think from Minju's story earlier, she has learned a lesson, so take advantage of the time when the spirit is still burning and act quickly or else she will not have this bravely stand in front of that person again.

- Then hurry up and change your clothes, I'll wait! - Contrary to Wonyoung's thought that she will have to beg for a while, Somin very cheerfully agreed.

- Nae, thank you! - Wonyoung jumped up and ran to her room.

Somin held back her laughter and shook her head. She have been with this girl for a while and also witnessed how much influence she has on her president, it didn't take long to see that the two were moved, just didn't realize it. Seeing her take the initiative to ask to come along, Somin of course accepted unconditionally, she can't separate this pair of chickens!

Wonyoung finished dressing and was about to leave the room when she was startled to see the girl with her arms crossed and leaning against the wall of the room door.

- I think Eunbi unnie just represented the group to visit Yumin unnie this morning and you still want to verify it yourself?  - Yujin said, playfully tilting her head and smiling.

- Who said I went to see Yumin unnie, I have a job! - Wonyoung lied without blink.

- I has just come down to the kitchen, do you still want to pass? -  Yujin gritted her teeth.

- Well... - Wonyoung stammered, what good reason should she have to explain this.

- Haizz... I've known you for so long, i understand you, Wonyoung!

- Fighting! - Yujin walked over to her and patted her shoulder.

- Thank you, Yujin unnie!  - Wonyoung turned to hug her sister who has always been with her since trainee days until the two debuted together with IZ*ONE.

Wonyoung didn't let Somin wait long, she said goodbye to Yujin and went out to the living room.  The smile on her lips gradually fades, Yujin has a pensive expression, Wonyoung and Minju's conversation just now she heard clearly, Yujin didn't intentionally eavesdrop on both of them, it was just her feet that didn't listen to its owner but stood there. 

"Yumin unnie is so lucky, everyone loves her! How about me?"  Yujin's POV

Wonyoung went with Somin to stand in front of the apartment door wearing shoes, Somin helped her tell the unnies that she had an unexpected schedule so she might be late today, the girls didn't ask any more questions, nodding their heads in understanding.

- Let's go! - Somin led Wonyoung into the elevator, down to the parking garage to get the car.

...

At the hospital

Yumin, because of the day when receiving visitors to the hospital, the work was left unfinished, her sense of responsibility rose, she had to disobey the doctor's orders to hold a laptop and type until late at night.

Lucy went out to buy some supplies for Yumin to live in the hospital, when she returned, she also saw Somin running to the same person, she smiled and approached them both.

- Somin! You're here! - And bring a companion? - Lucy raised an eyebrow at Wonyoung.

- She's not very secure, so she still wants to meet face-to-face to feel secure! - Somin immediately understood what Lucy was thinking.

- That's good! I think Wonyoung will be more effective than us here, just let Wonyoung stay here tonight! - Lucy passed the bags to Wonyoung, she pulled Somin beside her.

- EH! - Wonyoung is confused and confused.

- Yeah, that's right! Only you can advise Yumin to obediently rest!  Then we go back, please take care of Yumin, tomorrow I will come early to pick you up from work!  - Somin worked well with Lucy, leaving Wonyoung looking at them both as they left.

- Why did it turn out like this?  - Wonyoung sighed, seeming to remember the purpose of coming here, so she regained her spirit and went to find Yumin's room.

Yumin also did not notice Lucy's departure for a long time, she reached out to the edge of the table to find a drink, suddenly realizing that Lucy had brought the water bottle to exchange, so she had to continue working on the laptop.

At that time, someone pushed in the door of the room, Yumin didn't look to see who it was and immediately assumed it was Lucy and called.

- Lucy! Do you bring water, help me pour a glass! Thirst sore neck!  - Then Yumin rubbed her smooth neck.

When no one answered, Yumin raised her eyebrows and looked ahead, immediately surprised by the presence of the other.

- Wonyoung!

- The doctor told you to rest early, now it's almost bedtime and you still hold your laptop to work!  - Wonyoung carried the bags Lucy sent her, put each item in the right place.

- Your water! - Wonyoung also heard her lament earlier so she poured a glass of warm water.

- Thanks! And what are you doing here, where's Lucy and Somin?  - Many questions popped up in Yumin's mind.

- I volunteered to replace those two today to take care of you!  - Wonyoung didn't meet Yumin's eyes, she took some washed apples and put them in the mini fridge.

- You also have a schedule, why do you have to suffer so much?  - Yumin didn't look at her either, she turned back to her laptop.

- Because the two of them were powerless to advise you to put aside work and rest, so they gave me this task! - Wonyoung pursed her lips and put her hands on her hips, frowning tightly as she looked at Yumin.

Yumin turned to see the pressure spread from her, swallowed hard, suddenly remembered the voice from her subconscious, she smiled, turned off the laptop, put it aside, and obediently lay down on the bed.

- OK! I listened to you and quit my job and took a break, how about you? - Yumin tilted her head to look at her.

- When you are completely asleep, I will rest! - Wonyoung nodded and pulled out her phone.

- Lying on the sofa?  - Although the room is VIP, it only has one large hospital bed for the patient, and relatives who come to take care of them can only sleep on the sofa.

- But where is it! - Wonyoung answered the phone.

- Lying there is not comfortable, if you don't mind sleeping with me!  The bed is very big, two people are still wide! - Yumin narrowed her eyes and moved her body to make space for Wonyoung.

- Come on, you're hurt! What if I accidentally touched the wound that night! - You can't do it if you want, Wonyoung is to take care of the sick, not to harm the sick.

- The wound is so much better!  Besides, I hurt my left side, you could lie on my right side!  - Yumin still didn't give up, advised Wonyoung to sleep with her.

- I won't do anything to you, don't worry! - Yumin added.

- What else do you want do to me?  - Both of them won't be able to sleep if they keep arguing, Wonyoung had to agree to sleep with Yumin but hearing Yumin say one more sentence made her cautiously pull her shirt.

- Stop arguing, come up here! - Yumin gave up the argument, she pulled the blanket to let Wonyoung get in.

Wonyoung took off her shoes, she put her feet in the blanket, laid her back on the bed and quickly turned to face Yumin.

Yumin smiled in satisfaction, pulled the blanket over both of them, then looked up at the ceiling with her eyes opened.

- Did you sleep Wonyoung?  - Yumin glanced at the girl lying beside and asked softly.

- Not yet! - It took a few seconds for Wonyoung to reply.

- What brought you here today?  - She is not completely stupid, Wonyoung really volunteered to take care of her all night, if it wasn't for some special reason, no one would leave the warm bed at home and come here!

- What do you think?  - Wonyoung thought to herself that she was the fool, she was excited to run here earlier, now it's just the two of them, her confidence is gone.

- Uhm! I must be special in your eyes to get your attention!  - Yumin looked at the tasteless white ceiling and said softly.

- Illusion! - The mouth said so, but the lips were pursed and smiling.

- Wonyoung is very special to me too! Because in the moment when it seemed that i would fall to the bottom, it was not only thanks to everyone calling to return... - The person next to Yumin did not move at that time, Yumin still ignored it and continued to chatter.

- ...And you stretched out your hand to pull me out of that place, so after that day I immediately realized that you are a very special girl to me! You yourself call it the fate between us, right?  - Yumin turned her head to look at the girl lying still without reacting to her words.

Yumin sighed and smiled, she adjusted the blanket for them.

- Good night, Wonyoungie!  - When Yumin turned over and closed her eyes, the girl who thought she was asleep suddenly opened her eyes, her face was also red up to her ears.

- She also... - She whispered to herself.

...

The next morning, Lucy rushed to Yumin's hospital room.  Before entering, she stood outside to adjust her somewhat exaggerated mood because she thought of the scene inside the room she would see later.

Lucy let out a breath, she grabbed the doorknob and turned it open, but it was different from her statue. The scene that should have been two people sleeping next to each other, but only Yumin was holding a laptop drinking milk and the girl from yesterday was gone.

- Lucy unnie, good morning!  - Quickly answering Lucy's questions, Wonyoung just came out of personal hygiene, a few wet hairs lying on the sides of her temples.

Wonyoung hastily sat on the sofa, took out makeup from her bag, and put on light makeup to prepare for work.

- Have you had breakfast yet? I bought food for both of you! - Lucy didn't show her disappointment even though she put the food on the table in front of Wonyoung.

  - I just drank some milk, Wonyoung just woke up!  - She didn't want to wake her up just now looking at her sleeping face, but remembering that Wonyoung had a schedule, Yumin called Wonyoung to wake up.

- Then hurry up and eat while it's still hot, Somin will quickly come pick you up! - Lucy put the breakfast on the table to help Wonyoung.

  - Thank you unnie!  - Wonyoung put on some lipstick then put everything in her bag, she happily ate with chopsticks and spoon.

  - How was yesterday?  - Lucy turned around and saw Yumin warmly looking at Wonyoung, she smiled mischievously and approached Yumin and whispered.

  - It's normal! - Yumin doesn't fit either, smirking.

  - Usually fart! - Lucy pouted disdainfully, of course she didn't believe Yumin's words.

Just when the doctors entered Yumin's room.

  - Chairman Han! We came to check your last, to see if you can be discharged or not?

- Very good! Thanks everyone!  - Yumin hopes to be discharged from the hospital, she is tired of lying here for a while.

Wonyoung occasionally glances at Yumin's bed, sees her pull up her shirt from behind to reveal a bandage, the nurses help remove the bandage, leaving a surgical scar about two knuckles long, Wonyoung breathes lightly a breath of cold air, she looks like she feels pain instead of Yumin.

  - Done! Congratulations, President Han! The wound is no longer a problem, but you still have to be careful about eating and living to avoid affecting the wound! You can leave the hospital today! - The doctor smiled.

  - Really!? Thank you doctor!  - Yumin forgot her calm image, she excitedly knelt down and shook the doctor's hand with sparkling eyes like starlight expressing her current mood.

Lucy shook her head, and Wonyoung was surprised to see Yumin's rare personality, whispering cute compliments.

Somin just knocked on the door and walked in, looking at Yumin jumping around holding her clothes, she was surprised. She wondered if she hadn't seen Yumin for a night, but today this person had become such a childish person running around!

  - The doctor said she can leave the hospital today! - Lucy explained on behalf of Yumin, Somin nodded to show that she understood, she looked at Wonyoung leaning on her chin to watch Yumin running around.

  "Lovers are inexplicably cute!"  Somin's POV.

Waiting for Yumin to change into comfortable clothes, the four of them left the hospital room together.

- Even if you are discharged from the hospital today, you must not work too hard! When you have time, you should take care of your health, I will call Lucy unnie to report it! - Wonyoung stood in front of the van and turned to Yumin.

  - Always available 24/7! - Lucy winked.

Yumin's eyes widened, one Nara is done, now there's another Jang Wonyoung, she's not a child who needs a nanny to supervise.

  - Let's go, Wonyoung! - Somin enjoyed seeing Yumin's interesting expression, she pushed Wonyoung lightly to climb into the car.

Yumin pursed her lips like a child who lost her candy watching the car go away, in exchange for her usual indifferent face she turned to Junho next to her.

  - Let's go!  - Lucy smiled and followed Yumin in the back of the car.

  ...

Yumin returned to Diamond Star for about three days when an official dispatch invited her to participate in Kang Taechun's trial as a victim.

One day before the trial, Yumin went to see Kang Taechun.

The two sat facing each other separated by a glass, Yumin silently looked at Taechun in prison uniform, his face drooping as he sat with his feet on the table.

  - You won! - Taechun pursed his lips.

  - This is what you deserve for your illegal deeds! - Yumin slows down each word that comes out.

  - All for one b*tch!  - Taechun raised his head, laughter echoed throughout the room, Yumin on the other side of her face gradually became cold. If eyes can kill, Kang Taechun's hundreds of lives are not enough.

  - Huh! Are you angry? - Taechun stopped laughing, put his feet down, he leaned over and brought his sweaty face and mustache closer to Yumin.

  - How do you feel when you see your best friend helplessly lying under someone else's body, unable to resist? Hahaha!

  - KANG TAECHUN!!!  - Yumin's eyes were bloodshot, and she stood up and kicked the glass in front of her.

  - Chairman calm down!  Don't bother on crazy people like him!  - Junho hurriedly hugged Yumin's arm who was panting to suppress her anger.

  - Go die you bastard! - Yumin hissed through her teeth, she wriggled out of Junho's grip and left.

  - Han Yumin! I haven't finished telling you yet, the beauty of Kwon Juri when... - Taechun excitedly excited as he angered Yumin, he raised his head and roared along.

The next day, Kang Taechun with a lot of evidence to convict plus the case for the person who assassinated Yumin, he received the death penalty!

When the police took him out of the courtroom, Yumin glanced at him only to see a listless face no longer paying attention to his surroundings.

  - It's over!  - Yumin looked at the space in front of her.

  ___________________________________

On the way back to the company, Yumin visited a place.

Sweeping a little dust and grass on the grave, Yumin put down a bouquet of lilies, she didn't mind getting dirty and sat down next to the grave.

  - I should have brought some wine to celebrate the occasion! - Yumin smiled lightly.

  - It's all over, Juri! They received the appropriate punishment!  You should rest in peace, too, I will live as well as you say!  No need to be entangled in this place anymore, the people you love, I will take care of them for you, your wish I will also try to fulfill!  Thank you for appearing in this short moment!

  - Goodbye Kwon Juri!  - This time she didn't cry anymore, because her emotions were calmer now than before.

Yumin sat dumbfounded for a while, then crawled up on her hands, accidentally bumping into an acquaintance recently.

  - Yumin! /Minju unnie!  - Both in unison.

Yumin laughed first, she asked Minju to go for a walk. The two walked side by side, each with their own confidants.

  - So that person is Juri! - Minju looked ahead, took the initiative to start a conversation.

  - Nae! She is my "best friend"! - Yumin now mentions that person only good memories.

- I used to read the news about her! Unfortunately! - Minju tries not to affect Yumin's mood.

- Everyone has their own destiny!  If God had arranged it like that, it would be difficult to avoid it!  Yumin looked at his surroundings.

- Maybe! - Minju bowed her head.

Since it's all set up, can't something be changed?

- Yumin! - Minju stopped walking and looked at the person who had already passed a few steps.

- ... - Yumin also stopped following the call.

  - I know I can't change your feelings, but I still want to be frank for once because someone once told me: "No matter what the outcome is, it's still better than holding hope and dreaming alone!"

  - So... Yumin!  ... I like you!  Not the usual kind of friendship but more special than that!  I know you know what kind of love it is!  Do i have a chance! - Minju did not dare to approach Yumin, her voice also gradually softened because of the timidity of the owner.

- Sorry!

Just one sentence but it cleared up everything, she was rejected but interestingly Minju didn't feel pain but felt lighter than most.

Yumin of course noticed her unusual feelings, every word, every gesture was gentle and caring towards her alone. It's just that Yumin soon identified Minju as an older sister, a friend who often saw her when she was weak and talked to her side by side, releasing her feelings.

  - I understand! Yumin, you should learn a lesson from today!  When you like someone, you should strongly express it or because you love one-sidedly, don't let it be too late to regret it when it's too late! - Minju went to the side and patted Yumin's shoulder.

  - Nae! Thanks for reminding Minju unnie! I hope there is someone who really loves you because Minju unnie is a good girl!  - Yumin looked at the girl standing next to her.

  - Uhm! Come back! - Minju takes the lead.

Yumin walked slowly behind while thinking while smiling.

"No matter what the outcome, I still like you! Because this is our destiny!"  Yumin's POV.

The end of a story of youth and the beginning of the next troubles ahead.

Han Yumin will still confront forces everywhere to protect her home, Diamond Star. And fight for her own controversial love!

  +++++ THE END +++++

And that's it, there's 1 more chapter left! Do not consider it not to be held responsible!  🤣🤣🤣
