Chapter 97

"Can you guys not sit around me like this?" Yoon Hyun said a bit awkwardly.

The few girls surrounded Yoon Hyun as if they were about to beat him up, placing him in the middle of the group.

"It's fine, oppa, we won't make things difficult for you," Joong Bora said gently behind Yoon Hyun, massaging his shoulders. "If we're going to clear up misunderstandings, we should lay everything out on the table, right?"

"Bora, you don't have to go through so much trouble, I'm fine," Yoon Hyun felt a chill down his back. He always felt that Joong Bora's hands could pinch his neck at any moment. Moreover, he could tell from her words what he was about to face.

But Joong Bora ignored him.

"Um-jeong, go sit over there," Lee Kye-ri pushed Seo Eun-jeong, who was trying to blend in with them, and made her sit next to Yoon Hyun.

Seo Eun-jeong looked like she was about to cry.

"That... This is really strange!" Yoon Hyun tried to make the atmosphere more reasonable.

"Don't speak unless we ask you," Joong Bora suddenly applied more force.

Neck! Yoon Hyun felt a bit short of breath and immediately shut up.

Park Ji-yeon, who had just finished cleaning the kitchen, came out excitedly and sat down in her spot.

"Ji-yeon, good job!" Yoon Hyun laughed and then shut up again, not waiting for Joong Bora to apply more force.

Joong Bora nodded in satisfaction at Yoon Hyun's compliance.

"Um-jeong, Yoon Hyun is here. If there's anything you want to say, just say it," Lee Kye-ri said in a comforting tone.

"Ah, Kye-ri unni, you really misunderstood," Seo Eun-jeong was almost in tears.

"Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, it's not up to you to decide, Soo-yeon!" Lee Kye-ri clapped her hands.

PARK Soo-yeon immediately took out her phone, flipped through it, and started reading the various diary entries she had written.

How long Seo Eun-jeong had been daydreaming that day, how her eyes were swollen in the morning, indicating she had been crying, how her mood had dropped when they mentioned Yoon Hyun during their chat...

"Soo-yeon, I always thought you were cute, but I never thought you were so scary," Yoon Hyun felt a chill down his spine.

"Yoon Hyun oppa, I sleep very lightly. Every night, Eun-jeong tosses and turns and sometimes cries, making it hard for me to sleep. This will cause me to have insomnia!" PARK Soo-yeon closed her phone and looked at Yoon Hyun with an innocent and aggrieved gaze.

PARK Soo-yeon's eyes always seemed to speak, and Yoon Hyun felt a bit uneasy when he looked directly at her.

Plus, her expressionless face and frequent blinking, like a camera shutter...

Yoon Hyun instantly retreated.

He realized for the first time that in terms of childlike appearance and cuteness, PARK Soo-yeon was no less than Joong Bora... and she was even better at being coquettish... her ability to blink and send electric signals was really... too powerful.

"I was watching a drama..." Seo Eun-jeong started to explain. "I need to learn acting. So I watched... and then I got moved..."

"Do you believe this explanation?" Lee Kye-ri looked at Park Hyo-min and Park Ji-yeon, who were sitting side by side like a jury.

The two girls shook their heads in unison.

"It definitely wasn't watching a drama on January 1st," PARK Soo-yeon said firmly. "That night, you were just crying, and I stayed with you all night. How do you explain that? Eun-jeong, there's nothing wrong with liking someone..."

"Ah! That was just being moved! When the two episodes of 'We Got Married' were aired, didn't you all cry too?" Seo Eun-jeong said irritably. "And, Kye-ri unni, didn't you cry for a long time with your phone one night? And Bora unni, didn't your eyes turn red after Yoon Hyun xi called you that day?"

"What call?" Yoon Hyun was a bit confused. "What does it have to do with me?"

"Kye-ri unni's was when you asked her to dance 'Gangnam Style,' and Bora unni's was when you asked her to put the 'Cute Song' video online," Seo Eun-jeong said viciously.

Yoon Hyun was petrified.

"Ah!" Lee Kye-ri and Joong Bora both exploded. "Eun-jeong, are you crazy! How can you say such things randomly!"

"It's the truth! That night was so romantic, with a Western meal and fireworks, and finally 'My Love' on the piano. You all heard the song. If it were you, wouldn't you be moved?" Seo Eun-jeong's eyes turned red again.

Lee Kye-ri was speechless. When she watched the MBC broadcast that day, she cried the most. Joong Bora giggled a bit, as she was also deeply moved that day.

"So, Eun-jeong unni, did you fall in love with Yoon Hyun oppa because you were moved?" Park Hyo-min, who had been sitting as a jury, spoke up when the two main judges, Lee Kye-ri and Joong Bora, were at a loss.

"Just moved! Moved! Our personalities don't match. I knew that from the first meeting," Seo Eun-jeong waved her hand to interrupt Park Hyo-min. As the fourth member of the group, only Hyo-min and Ji-yeon could control her...

"Then, Yoon Hyun, why did you do so many things for Eun-jeong? Were you trying to pursue her?" Joong Bora, who had just put her hand down, placed it back on Yoon Hyun's shoulder.

"That... It was for the show effect, show effect..." Yoon Hyun laughed dryly.

Joong Bora started to apply more force.

"Ah! Bora! I'm telling the truth!" Yoon Hyun was like he had been electrocuted.

"Don't say we don't believe you, even Eun-jeong doesn't believe you," Joong Bora sneered.

Seo Eun-jeong, who was sitting next to Yoon Hyun and should have been on the same side, also nodded and looked at Yoon Hyun with a scrutinizing gaze.

"That... Alright..." Yoon Hyun quickly gave in. When Seo Eun-jeong was speaking, he didn't contradict her!

Otherwise... should he reveal that it was Kim Soo-yeon's idea?

But would that make him look stupid? Just doing what the manager said?

While Yoon Hyun was having an internal struggle, Joong Bora gently placed her hand on his shoulder again.

"Let me build up the emotion!" Yoon Hyun said a bit nervously, trying to cooperate with Joong Bora.

"Tell the truth! Are you trying to trick us?" PARK Soo-yeon said.

Yoon Hyun suddenly felt that in front of this girl, any lie he told would be exposed in seconds...

Sighing and composing himself, Yoon Hyun began to speak slowly: "The words I said in the recording studio hurt Eun-jeong's feelings, and I felt bad about it. Then my manager told me to watch 'We Got Married' to learn how other fake couples act, so I went to study. It just so happened that the show arranged a trip, so I thought I would arrange some things during the trip, like a birthday celebration."

"Ring! Ring!" Park Ji-yeon promptly played the role of a prompter.

"That was supposed to be given. I saw other fake couples do it. It was just a small event, but it didn't turn out as expected..." Yoon Hyun sighed.

"Didn't expect Eun-jeong to also prepare a ring?" Lee Kye-ri laughed. The scene was originally quite touching, but for some reason, it looked silly in the MBC broadcast...

"Exactly! Then the atmosphere became strange..." Yoon Hyun recalled, "And Eun-jeong, without makeup, was really beautiful..."

"Yo~~" The other five girls cheered.

"Then I got inspired to write a song. I originally planned to..."

"You just said that in the kitchen, we all know. Get to the point," Joong Bora interrupted. "Are you trying to pursue our Eun-jeong?"

Yoon Hyun was choked. Blurring the focus, failed!

"What did you say?" Lee Kye-ri and the others, who had gone out to buy things, didn't know... or only Joong Bora, who had been eavesdropping, knew...

"It's the song that just got three consecutive wins, 'What Makes You Beautiful,' which was also written for our Eun-jeong," Joong Bora simply explained what she had heard by the wall.

"Does that mean the previous two main songs were also for Eun-jeong?" PARK Soo-yeon's gaze towards Yoon Hyun became even more peculiar.

"The song was originally planned to be sung to her when we moved into the new house, but I didn't get the chance. I was then informed that it was the last filming," Yoon Hyun added, wisely avoiding PARK Soo-yeon's gaze.

He really felt uneasy looking directly at PARK Soo-yeon.

"Since it's all ending, why did you arrange a date for Eun-jeong? Do you want her to never forget you?" Lee Kye-ri's words carried a tone of questioning.

As soon as Lee Kye-ri spoke, almost everyone held their breath.

Actually, Seo Eun-jeong and Yoon Hyun had nothing to do with each other, and she didn't like him. How could these sisters, who lived together, not know?

They had been going through all this today just for this one question. Because in their feeling, during the time Yoon Hyun was "isolated" by CCM, Seo Eun-jeong really hadn't forgotten him.

What was originally just a normal friendship seemed to have undergone some interesting and not-so-interesting chemical reactions due to the forced "separation."

A kind of rebellious psychology. You don't let me like, I will like; you don't let us be together, we will be together.

But this wasn't real feelings!

When Seo Eun-jeong said their personalities didn't match, they all agreed. If Seo Eun-jeong really liked Yoon Hyun, the result wouldn't be good.

Seo Eun-jeong might look like a tomboy, but she had a soft heart. In short, she had a tsundere personality.

This kind of personality needed a strong man to open her heart.

And as Yoon Hyun's old friend, they all knew his personality. He was the typical type who wouldn't say a word even if you hit him three times. If these two were together, either Yoon Hyun would be annoyed to death by Seo Eun-jeong, or Seo Eun-jeong would be driven crazy by Yoon Hyun...

But now, the situation was that Seo Eun-jeong might like someone she wouldn't rationally like due to rebellious psychology...

Exposing Yoon Hyun in front of Seo Eun-jeong was the best way to help her get out of the fantasy created by Yoon Hyun and CCM.

But they hadn't informed Yoon Hyun of their plan, otherwise, he would have agreed wholeheartedly.

But...

"Even if I
