What is a Convenience store? A store where you can quickly access the things you need. Some of those stores are open 24/7, just like now. The door opens, revealing a familiar figure: a classmate of Daniel named (Y/N) (L/N).
Beside her was a masculine, tall, tan skinned man; he looked like he was of mixed race and a Chinese man, carrying a large bag at his back.
"Good evening," (Y/N) said with a smile. Unlike those kind and gentle smiles you see in fiction, (Y/N)'s smile was more like something she practiced multiple times on a mirror. It was like a smile like those of a schemer, yet Daniel couldn't help but fall for it.
They walk straight to the aisle where the drinks are and grab a couple of drinks before going to the counter.
Both were standing beside her like a bodyguard, ready to protect her at any given moment, ready to take a hit for her.
She's like a queen they need to protect at all cost except (Y/N) wasn't really the queen who needs to be protected.
It's weird to be guarded like this just for going into a Convenience store. Just what was (Y/N) doing? Is she into something dangerous?
"Mandeok, Does Eugene have any plans for now?" (Y/N) asked the tanned guy beside her. So his name was Mandeok. A tan skinned guy towering over normal people; his height is at least 6 to 7 feet tall.
"Nothing, but he did ask you to do what you normally do," The guy named Mandeok said.
Daniel was calculating the amount of alcohol while subconsciously listening to the conversation right in front of him. He couldn't help it; He was curious about what they were talking about.
"Done listening?," A voice suddenly asked. It was a female voice, and there was only one female in that Convenience store at that time.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to," Daniel quickly apologized. He just got this job, and he didn't want to lose it immediately.
"Nah, we're at fault here. We shouldn't talk about something like this in public." (Y/N) grabs the plastic container containing the drinks before walking towards the door. "Come on, Mandeok, We are leaving."
As (Y/N) and Mandeok mounted the laxly modified car park near the Convenience store, (Y/N) suddenly mumbled, "Ah, I knew it," as she looked at the starry night sky.
Curious, Mandeok suddenly asks "What is it?"
"The reason why I think the Convenience store guy looks so familiar," (Y/N) said, while looking at Mandeok. She was smiling before closing the car door. "I accidentally bumped into him the other day, actually."
"Who did you bump into?" The screen mounted at the back of the front seat suddenly lit up, revealing a figure with glasses.
"A guy. He wasn't that tall. He wasn't that handsome. He was also a bit chubby, but for some reason I found him very cute," (Y/N) whispered while looking at the passing building as the car passed by them.
The mysterious figure on screen takes the glasses out of his face and wipes them clean with a fiber cloth before saying, "Don't put your attention on other nonsensical things and just remember our plan. Take care of Chairman Song for a while. Our plan was already on course."
A full minute of silence engulfed the car. A few minutes later, hundreds of cars immerged at its back and front, protecting the car that (Y/N) was using and putting it in the middle.
"Xioayu, I don't need a man." (Y/N) said while facing the mysterious man, "Take back your lackey."
"How can you be so sure?" The man teases. (Y/N) wasn't sure if he was smiling or not. She couldn't see his facial expression because all she could see was his silhouette.
"Look, Unlike Mitsuki and Vivi, I don't need a Xiaolong or a Ryuhei; I just need myself and myself alone," (Y/N) said. She looks at the screen with her arms across each other and says, "Plus, I know you just put Haoyu under me to keep me under watch; don't ever underestimate me, Eugene."
"That's pretty straightforward of you, (Y/N)." The guy named Eugene said, "Aren't you afraid that I'm going to use that against you?"
"No," (Y/N) said with full confidence, "Because just like you have something against me, I also have something against you. Remember how this alliance works? You're not above me; I'm not below you; We are equals here."
"Sure enough... Fine..." The guy said one last time before turning off the video call.
(Y/N) knows that Eugene could turn the table against her earlier but she wondered why? Why didn't he?
-
"Honey!," A kiss suddenly at (Y/N)'s cheeks the moment she takes a step forward at her office.
"Is this for me?!" The guy suddenly grabs the plastic (Y/N) is holding and searches the contents of the plastic bag.
"It's not for you..." (Y/N) smiled and she said that before adding, "It's for me..." As she tried to grab the plastic bag back.
"Aww... Thank you Honey, could have been more expensive but this will do!" The guy said looking at the convenience store drinks. As he distances the plastic bag and (Y/N)'s hand away from each other.
"Don't you have money? You're literally rich," (Y/N) said as she yet again tries to grab the plastic back but then again the guy puts a distance away between the plastic and (Y/N)'s hands.
"I will make a shrine out of this," The guy said.
Nevermind he was literally not listening, It's no use talking to a person who's not even listening. It was like she was talking to a wall.
(Y/N) felt a stare at her, she searched her surroundings at where the stare is coming from and noticed that it was in fact coming from Mandeok.
"What?" (Y/N) asks as she looks at Mandeok.
To which Mandeok replied, "Nothing"
(Y/N) raised her brows while shaking her head looking at the guy wearing a gold outfit named Goo, before saying, "Nevermind, I'll Just buy a new one, Goo"

Do you have any theories on what was Eugene and (Y/N)'s alliance all about? Who is Chairman Song? If so I would love to read your theories!
