Certainly she wasn't an idiot! There was no way she was willing to let go of this Golden Goose— especially when one was as easy to manipulate as him.

Of course she wasn't planning to go against the gentle Second Male Lead or the adorable Female Lead; it was the horrendous Male Lead she wanted to use his ability to take revenge on if he dared to interfere between of her sh.i.p.s!

Since a media and celebrities played a big part, it goes without a doubt that this would have an adverse effect on the male even if he wasn't exactly a public figure. 

When it came to his weakness, having read the book, Yoonmi had hands on couple of them.

"It's not me, but one of my friends. She is a really big fan of yours. When it comes to your merch or any product you sponsor, she will do anything to buy them! 

Once she was even close to being the president of your fanclub. If it wasn't for that incident, she would have been known as your biggest fan!"

She knew that she hit him right at the spot, noticing how the red tint covered his cheeks and stared down at the ground. The glee was easily shown in her eyes.

Trying hard, Yoonmi held back her smug expression after that. This man was truly too simple to get into her control.

He cleared his throat and, stroking the back of his neck, said, "Well, it's not that big of a deal."

"Let me treat you to a meal tomorrow. I feel bad for having spent that much money on me. I will invite her as well. It will be a great honour for her if you could meet her."

It only took him a few minutes of coaxing to forget about all the grievances he suffered during the dinner and agree along with Ryu Yoonmi. 

Happily, he exchanged numbers with Yoonmi before heading in other direction. As for Yoonmi, she stood at the footpath, trying to hail a taxi.

What Minah was doing felt irrational to her, but knowing how foolish the girl was, she was afraid that Minah will only be creating further trouble by staying there.

Moreover, Minah believed that she had a grudge against Jihae, and this made her worry. Since the cafe still held a great significance, she did not wish for Minah to do something to get the girl fired.

The d.e.s.i.r.e to rush to the cafe intensified within her.

Noticing how no can stopped before her, she was about to release a sigh when a car halted because her. The window was then rolled down, revealing a friendly smile.

"Yoonmi," the male said.

"Oh! Hyungsik! It's you!" Yoonmi stated— a smile formed on her face.

If it wasn't for the fact that she was concerned about the Female Lead, she would have abandoned Minah once again to enjoy the time with the Second Male Lead.

"Do you need a ride?" he asked.

Awkwardly, she spoke out, "Yeah, it would be great if you could offer me one."

There was no way she was going to miss the chance of getting into the same car as her dear Second Male Lead, and over the way, both of them would even be able to chat.

That would dissolve the bad she was in considerably.

"Get in," he said.

"What happened with that man?"

Hearing his voice caused her to divert her attention from the tall buildings outside of the tinted window, and she turned her head to face him.

"Ah! Nothing much. I just brought him to this store and brought a piece of clothing for him. That got him satisfied I guess," she stated, "But you were really cool earlier when you stood up for Jihae!"

'So that's why don't ever lose confidence in yourself.'

"It was nothing compared to what you did," he spoke out, "You brought a clothing for him? Are you close to the waitress?"

"You can say that I am quite fond of her while she barely knows about me. I want to really be her friend," Yoonmi stated.

"Strange," he mumbled.

His voice was too low for her to catch the word. Since it would be rude of her to ask, she decided to ignore it.

"By the way, Hyungsik, are you free? Let's have a meal together if you have nothing in your schedule," she vocalised.

"Should we? Sure," he answered, "I will let you know when I am free. Will you be going to pick up Eunwoo from the airport tomorrow?"

"He is not a kid. Why should I even pick him up?" she said.

After the male had stopped the car before the cafe, she wasted no time in opening the door and getting out although she was quite reluctant to do so.

Not wanting Hyungsik to see this side of hers, she smiled and said, "Then, you should be going, Hyungsik! Thanks for the ride!"

"You don't need to drive me home?" he questioned.

"I will call a cab," she voiced out, "I have already delayed you probably."

With that, he nodded and drove away in the different direction. As for Yoonmi, she wore on a frustrated expression while she made her way to the café.

Seeing how the light were still on, she pushed the door, and her eyes immediately fell on Minah. Crossing her legs, she was seated on the chair while her hand held on to a coffee.

The scorn was shown on her face while she gazed the girl before her— who was bowing to her. Noticing who that girl was caused Yoonmi's eyes to widen.

As expected, Minah was making trouble for Jihae. 

Hurriedly, she made her way over to both of them.
