Please, Confess to Me

Chapter 31 : Hanni, I like you

At the first fork in the road, Minji and Hanni separated.

At the second fork, Minji looked at Jung Kook and said, "I'm going right."

"Then I'll take the left." Jung Kook tried to cooperate.

"Alright." Minji coldly nodded. She didn't say goodbye and directly left.

"Hey!" Jung Kook suddenly called out. When Minji turned back around, Jung Kook carefully asked, "If I end up finding Hanni before you—"

"Impossible." Minji impatiently interrupted. She took a few angry steps towards Jung Kook and glared at Jung Kook. "President Jung, I'm married to Hanni. You better stop thinking such superfluous thoughts."

"The angrier you get, the more you expose your fear." Jung Kook chuckled. "You forced Hanni into marrying you for 300 billion. In all honesty, you're worried that she's only good to you because she needs to repay you, right?"

"Such things have nothing to do with you." Minji mercilessly dropped this sentence, then turned around and left.

"I know it has nothing to do with me." Jung Kook wryly said to himself. He didn't know what was wrong with him. He couldn't help but want to aggravate Minji whenever he talked about such things.

On the other side, Hanni had already separated from the others and was aimlessly wandering around town. The temperature difference between night and day was quite significant in the south. It would be sunny during the day and pretty hot. It was enough to wear a thin coat. But when the sun sets, the temperature would drop rapidly.

Hanni deliberately changed into a down coat because of this. However, she was now also wearing Minji's scarf around her neck. She was a little hot, but in the end, she didn't remove the scarf and only loosened it a little.

Hanni had always had a poor sense of direction, so she definitely wouldn't be able to leave on her own. So before they even entered the town, she had already resolved to just wander around until Minji came and found her.

The town's buildings had white walls and blue tiles, with the building's eaves covered in vines and flowers. Occasional barks could be heard from alleys. All of this gave her a sense of peace and tranquility. Hanni found this stroll to actually be quite pleasant.

"Young girl, do you want to try some?" An auntie selling spicy noodles saw Hanni approach and warmly greeted her.

"Yes." Hanni was feeling a bit hungry after her walk.

"You're from out of town?" The auntie chatted with Hanni as she prepared Hanni's noodles.

"Yes."

"Travelling?"

"No, to visit some friends." Hanni answered.

"Here." Auntie put the noodles in a bowl and set it in front of Hanni. "Young girl, try some and see if it's good."

Hanni took a bite using some chopsticks and smiled. "Very delicious."

"What do you think, will my business thrive?" The auntie asked.

"You just opened?" Hanni asked.

"Yes." The auntie smiled. "Our mayor is planning on developing our town's tourism. A lot of you people came back to start businesses, so I also wanted to try and open a snack bar."

"Oh, well, you won't have any trouble. Your store is sure to become popular." Hanni boasted.

"By the way, have you seen the sign near the town gate?" The auntie asked.

"I've seen it."

"What do you think? Do you believe tourists would travel here for something like that?" The auntie was obviously very concerned about the development of the town.
