Saving the Assassin

Chapter 30: New

"S-so you have already taken down two of them?" Xiumin stuttered but managed to somehow compose his self in front of Daesuk. He was completely bewildered from the sidestory he have taken knowledge.

"Are you scared son?" Daesuk chuckled looking at the boy. Xiumin furrowed his brows and shook his head acting a bit tough. The image he's showing infront of  Daesuk wavered. Indeed he was still just a young man."No not at all Sir.."

He called me 'sir'? He was just addressing me a while ago as Mr. Han. This boy really. Daesuk chuckled from the thought. "It's okay Xiumin. Let's drop the formalities shall we? With that story told, you have my word. Don't worry too much. You can trust me. In fact, you can just let me do all the work. It's my plan after all. I'll just inform you if I need something."

"Certainly Sir. Do so. I'd be glad to help y--" The door opens which cuts him off. The intruder looks at Xiumin then Daesuk and repeats. Daesuk stands and puts a hand on his hip, resting his weight on one foot. "Don't you know how to knock mister?"

He just bowed and took a seat at Daesuk's office table to respect the two's business talk. Daesuk on the otherhand swiveled around following the latter's footsteps. Arching one brow, the boy immediately stood up again. Xiumin felt flabbergasted at how disrespectful this intruder could get making him turn his head to him.

"Annyeong. Joneun Kai-imnida." Kai bows 45 degrees and gets back to his seat, spinning it towards the view. Daesuk shook his head in dismay. Aish. Just because this guy does errands for me doesn't mean he could freely do such things to me especially in front of someone.

Xiumin stood up and bowed curtly only to sit down again. "So by the way, he is Kai. He's the one who does my errands. My personal killer." Daesuk spoke with confidence. With the said information two pairs of eyes widened.

Killer? The word echoed in the young men's head. Xiumin felt tensed but then relaxed his shoulders. It's his first time meeting an actual killer after all. To think he was good-looking and young like him... This is awful... I am curious...

What the fuck Daesuk?! Kai shouted internally, spinning his seat again to face them giving him a smug look, eye to eye.

That's what you get for disrespecting me. Daesuk smirked in his insides.

Little did he know, he triggered something Kai never knew could even be triggered inside of him.

Haunted. Humiliation.

The word haunted him; he despised it. Anger rushed through his veins and in no time he stormed out of the room, banging the door.

I never thought he would react like that. He normally wouldn't mind... It's not his style to be offended. Daesuk pondered but shrugged. Was he... hurt just now? He still had a straight though. Scary. Xiumin thought.

"So. Let's wrap it up. Anything further to discuss?" Daesuk asks. "No. All cleared. Let's just exchange numbers and I'll leave." "Arasseo."

"I'll take my leave now." Xiumin bows and Daesuk nods.

"Hyung you okay?" Sehun asked. "Yeah. Just lost patience there. I need to breathe." Luhan assured.

"It's boring." Tao whined sitting beside Luhan. "Yah you panda! You keep whining." Baekhyun scolded. "Why did you even follow hyung?" Panda asked Baek in a rude tone. "Just assuring Luhan won't run away from us." He smirked. "I'm not one to leave responsibilities Baek." Luhan defended. "Oh come on Baekhyun-hyung. I know you were as bored as us too." Sehun teased not really affecting the higher one. "I'll go get us something to drink." "Bubble--" "NO MAKNAES YOU PABOS. I'm just going to the vending machine!" Luhan cuts in time. These bubbletea zombies. "Ice coffee would be okay." Baek suggests. "Okay then. Ice coffee for all."
