Before Jihae or Eunwoo was able to say anything, Yoonmi moved over to both of them, and shock was clearly shown on her face. Her footsteps managed to attract both of her attention.

Yoonmi clearly was aware of Eunwoo found himself being slightly interested at Jihae the moment she talked to him at this very moment. Although it took a while for him to be in love with her, this is where is at all started.

Instantly, Yoonmi took out her handkerchief, and panic was shown on her face. Then, turning to face the woman, she tried to wipe away the coffee that had spilled upon her clothing.

Her actions managed to shock everyone.

Even Yoonmi had to admit that her actions were peculiar. She wanted to wipe the male at first, but knowing his attitude, he would only be insulting her. Not wanting to be humiliated, she could only switch her target to Jihae.

"Oh dear, are you fine? My fiance is such a clumsy man. He always trips over people. It's a sad thing how I have to clean up after him. You must be in a hurry, Dear. Take this handkerchief, and do your work. You don't have to worry about," Yoonmi vocalised, trying to dismiss the girl.

If this followed along the plot of the novel, it would have been quite cliché. Eunwoo would have tried to scold and insult the girl. Knowing his attitude, that wasn't surprising to Yoonmi.

This would result in Jihae trying to stand up for herself, and after that, the female lead would have walked away, leaving the man in awe.

Jihae looked at Yoonmi first and then, Eunwoo. After seeing that reassuring smile on Yoonmi's face, the girl nodded, and turning her back on them after a bow, she proceeded to leave.

Right then, Yoonmi felt a tight grip around her wrist before she was harshly spun back, and her eyes fell on Eunwoo. Both of his eyes held visible anger while they stared down at her.

"What do you think you are doing?" he questioned— his voice filled with venom.

"I don't know. Why can't you just guess?" she retorted while the corner of her lips curled up.

"Don't play games with me, Yoonmi, and don't create any trouble at here."

With an audible scoff, she pulled her hand away from the male and vocalised, "It was obviously you who was creating trouble at here. Can't you see how petrified that girl was of you? 

I just felt pity for her and wanted to save her. Why? Are you jealous that I wiped her and not you? Do you want me to do the same for you?"

"Are you doing this to provoke me?" he raised one of his eyebrows.

"Are you getting provoked? You will make a good dog. You are really obedient and do everything I expect you to."

"It seems that I have been really nice to you these days, right? One phone call from me, and you will be dragged back to South Korea. Remember that," he warned.

"Don't be offended, alright? Why don't I treat you to a coffee and cake at here? Your favourite— straw—"

Before she was able to continue, she felt a palm in front of her mouth, unabling her to speak further, and his glare became more intense while creases started to form between both of his eyebrows.

An innocent expression sat on her face throughout the entire time.

"How did you know?" he questioned.

Raising her hand, she held his wrist and moved his hand away from her mouth. Blinking her eyes multiple number of times, pretending to be oblivious, she questioned, "About what? The fact that you like straw—"

Without giving her a chance to continue further, he enunciated with each of his syllables being crystal clear: "Shut up if you know what is the best for you."

His love for strawberry and strawberry flavoured products wasn't something 'Yoonmi' in the novel was aware of. The female lead is the first person in the novel to find out about it, and since she had read the novel, Yoonmi too was aware of this fact.

"Okay, I got it. My mouth is completely sealed," she stated, "But it's completely obvious. Your eyes sparkle and your mouth waters whenever straw— I mean, those tiny, pink things fall in your line of sight. Remember how you used to fight for them."

Yoonmi wanted to tease him by mentioning the name, but the glower from him was enough to shut her up. At the mention of the strawberries, he became serious all of a sudden to the point even she found it somewhat intimidating.

It's just loving strawberry. What's a big deal about it?

Before the male was able to get her out of his line of sight, she shifted her attention to the man behind him, who barely got any screentime currently. The smile on her face grew brighter at the sight of him, who was like a ray of sunshine to her.

"Hyungsik, I am not sorry if you felt out of place. That wasn't my intention. Since Eunwoo would not be accepting my invitation for a free coffee, will you do it?" Yoonmi politely said.

Before she was able to have Jihae and Hyungsik together, she had to remove Eunwoo, the heavy block, between both of them. 

"Sure, why not," he answered. "What about you? Are you staying, Eunwoo?"

"I don't think I will be able to enjoy coffee anymore," Eunwoo said.

Yoonmi was relieved by how things went smoothly. After this, she doubted that he will be coming at here since he wanted to avoid her. According to the novel, he never went to the places Yoonmi frequented.

That implied that there would be much less encounters between him and Jihae.
