Chapter 22-1


    Hte looks at Sion with troubled expression.


    It must have been because he wanted to somehow pay off the debt he owed her.


    Just having that kind of feeling was enough, but why did he be so forceful?


    <em>Hes a nice guy. Hes also good-looking, to be honest.</em>


    Hte chuckled at the thought she had heard before.


    He was very handsome, polite, and even kind.


    At that time, she tried to deny it, but only now I was able to ept it.


    Are you having fun doing this? I wish you would finish it quickly.  Sion


    Its not fun. Why are you being stubborn?  Hte


    Are you telling me to live with debt for the rest of my life?


    Just think of it as if 80 gold coins fell from the sky.


    I can onlyugh if its just a joke.


    Does it sound like a joke to you?


    Sion feels tired and frowns.


    It was her hard-earned money, but yet Hte refused to ept it.


    Maybe, she guessed how he had gotten the money.


    How long are you going to keep doing this?


    If you give up, its over, but youre still holding on, arent you?


    It will end once you my sister epts it.


    How would I know where the money came from? Since I didnt lend it to you, just take it and stop this.


    Its your hard-earned money, right? Then Please.


    Oh, Im not going to take it?


    Just take it!


    Sion pushed the envelope forward with a raised voice, reluctantly.


    But Hte calmly continued speaking without even blinking an eye.


    If you leave it here and go, Ill tear it up right away.


    What you want to make it useless for me too?


    Thats why Im telling you to take it. You know my personality, right?


    Youre quite entric.


    Yeah. Since my personality is entric, hurry up and take it. I dont want to be embarrassed about this.


    While Hte warned him gently, her gaze did not waver.


    It was as if her will to keep the words she uttered was engraved in her.


    After thinking for a moment, Sion finally took the envelope.


    How nice would it have been if you had done that from the beginning?


    How could I not take it? You look like youre about to lose and beat me.


    Hey! When did I say Ill hit you?


    Look at My sisters face. Are you giving me that threatening look for no reason? If only your re could kill people, I would have dead already.


    If you had listened to me earlier, this wouldnt have happened. Its all your fault.


    Youre ming me again. Dont you feel ashamed?


    Then tell me now. Where did the moneye from? How did you manage to get 80 gold coins in just a few days? Im really curious.


    Hte scoffed openly and tilted her head.


    Sion sighed and made an ufortable expression.


    Hey. You know I can handle things on my own even if you dont worry about me? You should take care of yourself more than me.


    My sisters situation doesnt look so good either.


    Are you and I the same? Dont I have to act more mature?


    Do you really think pretending to be an adult in front of me is that fun?


    Why do you think its pretending to be an adult? Is it so strange to take care of the fianc who is three years younger than me?


    Hmm So you feel rewarded and proud of yourself?


    Well, then who could have given you 80 gold coins in that situation?


    Sion hesitated for a moment before closing his mouth.


    He couldnt deny that one fact.


    If Hte hadnt followed him to the auction house, he would have never won the bid for the Demon Gloves.


    Are you feeling guilty? You seem quiet.  Hte


    I have to admit it.  Sion


    Yeah, thats right. Be grateful and think carefully in the future. Ive done something generous for someone three years younger than me.  Hte


    I guess you want me to act awkwardly every time we meet, huh? Thank you, though.  Sion


    Now you seem more like yourself. Keep it up in the future. I feel burdened when you act like this.  Hte


    Im worried about who will put up with that attitude of yours. Ugh  Sion


    Sion looks at her with pity, shaking his head.


    Hte smiles back at him.


    Because someone is in front of me, I have high expectations.  Hte


    Do you have ns to marry me?  Sion


    Thats the question I wanted to ask.  Hte


    Dont answer a question with a question. Just answer.  Sion


    A question is also an answer.  Hte


    You dont have the confidence to answer.  Sion


    Think what you want. I have no regrets.  Hte


    Im sure. With no one standing in your way, what could you regret?  Sion


    Then you can just stop me from regretting it.  Hte


    Hte takes a step forward with a nce.


    Sion follows behind slowly with a disappointed expression.


    <em>Hes really handling it well. He received money because of someone else Hes quite a fianc.</em>
