Chapter 153
Seo Jihyuk’s reaction was as expected, and I could only manage a bitter smile. If someone else were experiencing this and I was listening to it from a third-party perspective, I might react similarly, though perhaps a bit more tempered.
Seo Jihyuk whispered to Baek Ae-young. The space wasn’t that large, so their low voices echoed and I could hear everything. Look at his pupils. They’re completely dilated. No wonder he looked so troubled, after all, someone who only looks into people’s mouths for a living can’t be in their right mind. I could tell from the moment he put a drill in my mouth.
Hearing these rude comments, Baek Ae-young slapped Seo Jihyuk’s back with her palm.
“Ow! Ow!”
“Do you want to treat a sick person like that?”
Baek Ae-young looked at me and said one thing, as if feeling complicated.
“…Hah. Hang in there.”
“Excuse me? What do you mean?”
“Just… hang in there.”
