Chapter 458
“Even if you’re busy, you could’ve at least moved together... huh? Hello~!”
“...Ah, yes, hello.”
Pretending not to notice Min Jiheon’s twisted expression, I bowed a beat late and addressed the people who had also greeted me.
“...Are they your friends, hyung?”
I widened my eyes innocently on purpose as I asked, and Jiheon turned his head away slightly, as if it physically hurt him to respond.
It didn’t really matter whether he answered or not.
Friends or old theater colleagues—what difference did it make to me?
Tilting my head to the side, I continued brightly,
“So... are you hyung’s former theater colleagues? Sorry to interrupt, but would it be okay if I took Jiheon-hyung with me...??”
“Ah, uh, yes, of course! We were just about to head out too.”
“Wow~, thank you! Everyone’s been waiting forever for Jiheon-hyung to come back!!”
I made it very clear I had no intention of wasting time here. The men nodded slowly, glancing at Jiheon with lingering regret.
