Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Beauty and Masked Beast

Wearing her bag, Soohyun stood in front of the mansion's door and asked, "Shall we go now?"

Oh Chaeyoung, Oh Jihoon, Han Minhyun, and Hw.a.n.g Yejoon was before her. All of them were dressed appropriately for hiking, and four of them nodded.

Jihoon then voiced out, "Jiwoo-ssi, I have some training routines for you that will be perfect at the mountains."

Hearing those words from Jihoon, the smile on Soohyun's face almost cracked. After she had searched up the hiking site online, Soohyun had seen that it was quite secluded, and the walking distance was very long. If extra training were to be added, then Soohyun dreaded that she will faint on her way home.

There was nothing fun about hiking in Soohyun's opinion. Nonetheless, in order for her plans to succeed, she had to go there and bring Chaeyoung along with her.

About how Soohyun will be finding Jimin once she is there, she had her own sets of plan for that. From the online sources, she had found out that the network on the mountains were good and, therefore, her plans would go smoothly.

"You're planning something," Minhyun commented.

Coughing, Soohyun fixed the emotions on her face and whispered, "Minhyun-ah, don't worry; I won't do anything that would harm you. After all, I have given my word to protect you."

"I am not worried sbout you doing anything intentionally," Minhyun pointed out as Yejoon opened the door to the mansion.

As the three of them walked out, Soohyun and Minhyun were at the mansion— staring at each other. Hearing his words, she furrowed her eyebrows.

"Are you saying that I might be manipulated by someone?" 

Minhyun shrugged his shoulders and stepped out of mansion. Dissatisfied by the fact that she had received no reply, a frown formed on her face and she followed after Han Minhyun.

"Give an answer, Minhyun. Silence isn't fun," Soohyun voiced out.

Turning her head back, Minhyun smirked and vocalised, "Soohyun, I am not here for your enjoyment."

As the four of them got down from the car, Jimin raised her head to look at Eunwoo and smiled at him softly. Beside them were two of Jimin's friends— one male and one female.

"Eunwoo-ah, I am glad you could make it," Jimin vocalised, "With them being a couple, I felt too awakward to be in this trip."

Extending his hand towards her, Eunwoo gently rubbed his palm on her head and said, "Noona, anything for you, and going outdoors and observing nature isn't bad. I like occasional hiking."

With a sparkle appearing within her eyes, Jimin voiced out, "Really, Eunwoo-ah? We have lots of things in common it seems. What about Chaeyoung? Would she be fine with this?"

A sad look crossed over her eyes as she stared at the ground below her, and smiling at Jimin, he said, "Noona, Chaeyoung wouldn't mind, and I knew you before her."

Hearing those words from Eunwoo, Jimin raised her head, and her heart began to beat rapidly within her chest. Red coloured her cheeks whilst Jimin's eyes mirrored her adoration towards him.

"Noona, you're really beautiful; Everything of yours is really beautiful," Eunwoo voiced out.

Shyness being noticeable in her tone, Jimin asked, "What are you talking about, Eunwoo?"

"Both of you are really cute!" The female commented as she looked at Jimin and Eunwoo. A wide smile sat upon the Female's face.

Pulling the Female closer to him, the Male vocalised, "We are a better couple though."

Moving her hand around her face, Jimin denied, "No, we are not—"

Before Jimin could continue, Eunwoo extended his hand towards her and grasped her hand tightly— intertwining his fingers with hers. Looking down at their entangled hand, joy surged through Jimin although she pulled on a surprised expression.

As she stared up towards Eunwoo questioningly, he smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment."

Widening her eyes, Jimin stared at him whilst feigning confusion within her eyes— an action of hers which other's found cute. 

Looking down towards Jimin, Eunwoo vocalised, "Don't look at me like that, Noona, or else I wouldn't be able to control myself."

Seeing Eunwoo lick his lips, the blush on Jimin's cheeks deepened, and she shyly made eye contact with Minhyun. The other couple let out a chuckle at their interaction.

"Let's go now. Both of you can have your alone time later on," The Female said— her tone sounding teasing.

Seeing how everyone was ahead of her, Soohyun let out a loud sigh. Compared to those members of the Red Clan, she was completely lacking, and no one was trying to make her feel better by walking at a same pace as hers.

As they walked up the mountain trail, Soohyun could see greenery at both of her sides and was somewhat afraid that a snake would appear all of a sudden. Towards those slithering creatures, she held pure disgust.

Turning back, Minhyun exclaimed, "Hurry up!"

Scrunching her nose at him, Soohyun said, "This is my maximum speed. You don't think I can walk as fast as you all can?"

Soohyun arched her eyebrows as Minhyun answered, "At least you should try to keep up. I see no increase in your pace. Quit being this lazy; This was your idea after all."

She scoffed, and recalling about the fact that she had to text Jimin, she smiled towards Minhyun. She then voiced out, "I'll try my best to speed up. Happy?"

"You better keep your words," Minhyun vocalised as he turned to look at the front.

Soohyun nodded before she sneakingly took out her phone. As she hurriedly walked behind the four of them, she switched on her phone and searched for Jimin's number.

She could see that the three of them— Yejoon, Jihoon, and Chaeyoung— were engaged in an conversation whilst Minhyun occasionally nodded. 

Running couple of steps forward to stand directly behind them, Soohyun clicked on the chat box beside Jimin's name and hurriedly texted, "Unnie, where are you at this moment?"

At that moment, Yejoon turned back, and reflexively, she clicked on the send b.u.t.ton before lowering her hand and hiding it behind her back. She flashed a smile towards Yejoon.

"Jiwoo, which one do you think is better?" Yejoon questioned.
