[Seo Jungeun approached Yoo Ilhwan half a year before your accident. He started by offering him an executive position at the head company in exchange for giving all information about you, including your schedule]
Little bird's voice flew into Yoohan's earpiece, strangely calm and smooth without stutter since they didn't have to face people directly.
[Trash—wouldn't he naturally become exec if he followed oppa anyway?] Byeol's fuming voice came next as Yoohan ducked behind a destroyed wall.
[Yeah, but how long would it take? That man is highly ambitious] her twin sibling, Gyeol, replied calmly.
Yoohan kneeled on the ground while checking on the safety of the gun in his hand, listening to Byeol's annoyed response. [Who becomes an exec in their twenties anyway?]
[That's exactly why—uff] the reply from Gyeol came with the sound of something rolling on the ground. [He wanted to be that someone who became an exec before hitting thirty]
[And he can't do that by staying as a young master's attendant] this time, it was Yoon Jay's steady voice. [Why are you being so quiet, Master?]
Yoohan gripped his gun and quickly jumped off the ridge, walking along the ditch. "Fuck off, Yoon Jay."
[But wouldn't it be awkward if he became an executive in HS by leaving Yoohan's side?] Ingyoo's voice came along with panting breaths. [Damn it, Yoon Jay—stop chasing me!]
[That's not how this thing works, financier] the bodyguard replied dryly—Yoohan could imagine the cold smile on the man's face and moved his legs faster. [Anyway, if Seo Jungeon truly made him executive, it wouldn't matter. Master would only enter the company much later, and by then, he would have a steady position where he could feel like an equal]
Yoohan stopped at the edge of the ditch and climbed out quietly, swiftly rolling to take cover behind another wall and peeking out to see someone crouching behind a boulder, busy getting angry and clenching her fist rather than her gun. He aimed with a smile.
[Trash!] another angry yell from Byeol. The twins had been helping Yoohan with extracting information from Yoo Ilhwan, who was still staying in the club's dungeon. But the girl was being too emotional about it, so it fell on the calmer Gyeol to do it in their stead. [I knew he was trash from the moment I saw him—eeek!]
"Cute sounds you make there," Yoohan commented as a bright blue stain splashed on Byeol's back.
[Oppa!! Why me?!]
"Because you're there," Yoohan replied nonchalantly while running along the tall wall again.
[Well, he's a snake, but we couldn't kick him out just because we had a bad feeling about him, since he also happened to be a competent snake] Gyeol said with a melody of several shooting sounds as background. [Also because we thought Yoohan-hyung had a soft spot for him]
[Hoo...] an eerie low sound reverberating in Yoohan's ear. [Soft spot, is it...]
"Fuck!" Yoohan threw his body to the side, just in time with several splotches of red striking the wall and path where he was a moment earlier. "Why the fuck are you shooting at me?!"
Where the hell is that man even coming from?
Yoon Jay's crisp laugh could be heard from the earpiece as Yoohan ran to seek cover. [Obviously, because you're on the opposite team, Master] the man said in an innocent tone, like a man who only acted out of duty instead of jealousy.
"Aren't you supposed to be my bodyguard?!"Yoohan hissed and swallowed his curse to preserve his stamina. "Ingyoo!"
[Sorry, boss, I'm dead] the financier replied casually. [But why are you taking the opposite side, J?]
