Mission: Failed

I Swear to Never Betray You!

Chan left with Jisung. His men didn't forget to pick up Changbin who was on the ground on their way out either. In the blink of an eye, only Minho and Felix were left in the room.

Felix walked over slowly. He had recovered before. With his super-strong S-class constitution, the drug's efficacy wasn't that long, but he had just stood aside quietly without intervening in the dispute between Minho and Chan.

He observed Minho's unusual behaviour today and remembered what he'd said when he was defending Jisung last time. He showed a puzzled look in his eyes once again, but didn't ask much and just said, "Thank you for coming."

Minho turned back to see the calm and gentle look in Felix's eyes. He gradually began to feel guilty.

Jisung came twice in a row to give Felix trouble. Regardless of how he was inside, on the surface at least, he seemed to be going overboard. Jisung had in fact harmed Felix, but he hadn't stood up for Felix this life, instead of letting him go through this kind of humiliation. All this pained Minho.

But how could he explain that Jisung wasn't bad-hearted?

Felix keenly perceived Minho's inner difficulties and struggles. With a faint smile, he said lightly, "I am fine."

With just three words, he revealed everything.

'Since I am fine now, it doesn't matter if you don't pursue the issue with Jisung. No matter what decision you come to, I believe you have your reasons because I trust in your character.'

'Plus, I'm a soldier, not a weak thing who can't take being wronged.'

Minho understood the meaning behind Felix's words. Reading his expression, he breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, felt even guiltier and remorseful. After a long time, it seemed he finally made a decision and said slowly, "To avoid another incident, you can move to my house for the time being."

He still said this sentence.

But this time, it wasn't said out of fear of Felix encountering danger. He knew that nobody would create difficulties for Felix after this. What happened to Changbin would scare those rich kids enough to deter them from making another move on him again.

He only let Felix live at his house because he knew that Hyunjin would see him there soon and be drawn to him.

After all, an outstanding person like Felix easily captivated people's attention. His radiance couldn't be hidden.

Therefore, it wouldn't make much of a difference if he no longer liked him, because there'd be many other people who would like him and believe in him. Felix never lacked those things.

But Jisung was different. No one liked him or believed in him or protected him.

He was the one who really needed his protection.

'Sorry, Felix.'

'This life, I hope you can cultivate your love and career. I hope you and Hyunjin can get together smoothly. This is all I can do to compensate you.'

'That way, Jisung might give up on Hyunjin a little earlier, and won't be hurt as badly.'

As they were good friends, Minho was the clearest on how cold and firm Hyunjin was. Perhaps only a person like Felix, with the same mental decisiveness and a resolute goal, was suitable to be his partner.

However, the youth's love was too direct and fierce. It would only hurt him.

Although Changbin was seriously injured, he didn't die. He was quickly sent for treatment, and with the medical prowess of Kingdom Star, his life wouldn't be in danger. Only after learning this, did Jisung breathe a sigh of relief.
