The first launch of the seminar ended pretty well and everyone was packing their stuff up, ready to leave the place like kids after the school bell rang. That is until Chef Gábriel clapped to gather everyone's attention to him. "Alright, folks. I must say that today was a great start for all of us. It was a great pleasure meeting such fantastic chefs across the globe. Y'all are sent here for a purpose and you guys didn't disappoint me today. But, this is not going to be the end yet. We still have 20 more days to see each other's faces so I hope that everyone will get along here, understand?"

"Yes, chef!"

"Good. Pack your things now and get to your hotels safely. Don't forget your assignments!"

After that, everyone went on to their own business and left the place. Some chefs have made friends with each other already and it was fun to see, especially for Yongbok. If only there's a chance to befriend each one of them, he'd totally do that.

But there's already two douchebags that he's totally aware will never work out befriending. Nonetheless, if those two had a change of heart, Yongbok will never hesitate to give friendship to them too.

"Yongbok-san, do you want me to drive you back to your hotel?" Riki asked Yongbok since they're pretty near the entrance.

"Are you sure? I don't want to disturb you."

"I've asked for it myself so why would I think you'll be a disturbance?" Riki flashed a cheeky grin — one that reminds Yongbok of his Hyunjin hyung's rare smile. But his hyung's are more lovely for him. Like when Hyunjin smiles, you know it actually comes deep down in his heart.

"Oh right. Hehe. Well then if you insi–"

"Hey, if it isn't Mr. Low class kimchi right here." The friends were cut off by the same voice that embarrassed Yongbok earlier.

"What did you just call him?" Riki was already pissed, and the fact that this motherfucker called Yongbok in that name boils his blood.

"Oh, and looks like he's got a boyfriend already! HAHAHA! You're really something, aren't ya faggy?" The other man (the one who also said some bad remarks at Yongbok) added; lips formed in a dirty, infuriating smirk.

"Don't talk to him like that, you moron!" And to their surprise, Yuqi got in between them and pushed one of the man's chest away, not totally intimidated despite them towering over her.

"And a girlfriend too?! Damn dude, you're up for a three way?" The first man laughed maniacally, planning on pinching Yongbok's cheek but Riki was fast to take it in his hand.

"If you don't stop talking right now, I'll bust your jaw off and crack your fucking arms until you couldn't use it for cooking anymore." He warned, voice dark and deep, that Yongbok was quite scared of hearing off. He felt like he just met a vicious ego of Riki's.

"Go on. Do it." The male wasn't fazed at all, even egging Riki to begin this fight.

"Oh I for sure will–"

"Riki please. Don't do this. He's not worth it." Yongbok pulled the younger man away and tried to calm the situation.

"Don't hide behind your language, kimchi."

Yongbok emitted a scoff and was already at his peak of 'pissed off' meter. His jaw was clenched, and his eyes are not as bright as sunshine anymore. "Okay. Here's one for you." He looked the guys, straight in the eyes and uttered "Fuck off."

One of the guys raised his fist and was about to land a hit on Yongbok's face. But before a fist fight could even happen, thankfully, Chef Gábriel came by just in time.
"Now now, cocineros (chefs). What's the matter here?"
