Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Beauty and Masked Beast

Han Sungmin wore on a grim expression upon his face whilst his back leaned against the couch. His legs were crossed whilst his hand held on to a cup of tea.

His office was coloured in shades of black and white. Seated opposite to him, on the black couch, was Han Minhyun. Nonchalance sat on Minhyun's face.

Sungmin's eyes narrowed in on Han Minhyun, trying to look past that mask Minhyun wore, but he remained unsuccessful in doing so, like most out there.

He was the one who taught Minhyun about all these, and now, seeing how Minhyun had surpa.s.sed him in all of this did not make him feel any less better.

Han Sungmin was afraid of meeting a day when he would not be able to control Han Minhyun any longer. Minhyun was already starting to act out, and Sungmin himself was aware that Minhyun was starting to disobey him.

"Nothing new. The Blue Clan had acquired few new techniques, which is currently under investigation, and there is nothing else other than that," Minhyun answered as he picked up his cup of iced tea from the table.

Unable to judge whether or not what Minhyun had said was the truth made Sungmin feel frustrated, and clenching his hand into a tight fist, he held in the temper he felt at this moment.

"Are you sure?" Sungmin questioned. His voice sounding threatening. 

Han Minhyun nodded.

Before Seungmin could ask more questions, the door to the office was pushed open, and an irritated expression formed on Sungmin's face, which he quickly masked.

Turning back, Han Minhyun had noticed that Seo Taemin was walking in whilst wearing a wide and bright smile upon his face, showing how happy he felt at this moment.

Han Minhyun stood up at this moment and was about to bow towards the man whilst the man raised his hand and said, "You don't need to do that, Han Minhyun. Now that you have found your fated one, you are at the same level as us, so skip the formalities."

"Alright, Seo Taemin-ssi," Minhyun said.

"What brings you here, Seo Taemin?" Han Sungmin questioned— his eyes clearly glowering upon the man in front of him. 

Seo Taemin looked for every possible chance to get under his skin, and Sungmin was sure that he came here to do that at this moment for he mentioned on how Minhyun was at the same level as them.

"I heard that Minhyun had come here after a while and wanted to congratulate him. After all, finding the fated is no small matter," Taemin voiced out. 

Even though Taemin seemed to be joyful, it did not miss Sungmin's eyes on how Taemin's eyes held a certain mock towards him.

"Congratulations, Minhyun-ah! What are your thoughts for the future then?" Seo Taemin voiced out as he stared towards Minhyun.

"Seo Taemin-ssi, I would prefer the things to stay this way until the matters with the Blue Clan is figured out, and after that, I will be seeing about it," Minhyun politely answered.

Taemin nodded and said, "That sounds better. If you take up the Leaders' position now, lots of things would be disturbed. Your—"

Before Taemin could continue, Sungmin slammed his hand on the table and stood up. An amused expression crossed Taemin's eyes at Sungmin's reaction.

As his eyes glowered upon Seo Taemin, he said, "If you're done congratulating him, you can leave now. We were discussing some important matters currently, and your presence is not welcomed."

Seo Taemin walked towards the direction of the couch opposite to Han Sungmin and sat down upon it. Whilst placing his arm on the table, he propped his face on top of it.

Wearing a smirk on his face, Taemin asked, "Han Sungmin, are you this shaken up because I have mentioned the truth?"

Taemin let out a chuckle, and then leaning back against the couch, he crossed his legs. Raising one of his eyebrows, he waited Sungmin to say something.

"Seo Taemin, I do not have as much as leisurely time as you. Han Minhyun and I truly have some important matters. Before I call the guards to push you out of here, leave," Sungmin said as he pointed towards the door.

Being unfazed by Sungmin's words, Taemin voiced out, "I don't think Minhyun would be taking it well if you tell me to leave like this, especially considering how detached he is growing to you recently."

Sungmin's hands fist tightened, and he had a difficult time controlling in his rage. He already knew about it and does not need Taemin to rub it in for him.

After one last glance towards Sungmin, Taemin turned to look towards Han Minhyun, and as a friendly expression sat upon his face, he vocalised, "Minhyun, how have things been going between you and your fated one? 

Things could be difficult seeing that she is from the Yellow Clan. You can ask me for help, and as the trans.m.u.tation is coming up, you must be really concerned. It doesn't matter whether or not some people are with you; I always support you and your decisions, Minhyun."

"Both of us have been adjusting well each other, and if there is anything concerning, I will be letting you know about it, Seo Taemin-ssi. Thank you for your concerns. If that's all, I would want to take my leave now. There is something urgent on the surface that I need to pay attention to," Minhyun voiced out.

As much as Han Sungmin wanted to question Minhyun on certain matters, it would not be a good option for Seo Taemin was present here. Therefore, he decided to talk with Minhyun on it later on.

"Go on, Minhyun, and visit me whenever you have time. It gets lonely down here," Taemin said— the wide smile on his face still present.

Then, Han Minhyun glanced towards Han Sungmin, who nodded as well, and standing up, he bowed at Han Sungmin.

"I'll be taking my leave then," Han Minhyun said before turning his back on two of them. 

Minhyun was grateful towards Taemin for appearing at that moment for he did not prefer conversing or staying with Han Sungmin.
