Running Man: Mong Ji (Sequel: On Hold)

Chapter 38-The Vote

'What? Why do you want to do that?' Jong Kook asked.

'Because I feel sorry for him and his condition. Furthermore, he was always being abused when he was young. He told me. And I need you guys' opinions. After all, you guys know him better than me and if you guys don't want me to do it, I won't,' Eun Ji replied.

'Eun Ji ah, I know that you're a kind-hearted girl. But what if his personality suddenly changes and he attacks you? You won't be safe and that'll be bad,' Haha reasoned.

The truth was Haha just really wanted to spend more time with Eun Ji.

'Don't worry. I'll be safe! I learned martial arts, I can protect myself! And I'm an experienced psychiatrist!' Eun Ji spoked with confidence.

'Yeah. And Suk Jin oppa told me Kwang Soo's personality will only change when he faints,' Ji Hyo unknowingly backs Eun Ji up.

Just then, the door swung open and it was Gary.

'I bought coffee and food for everyone from a nearby shop!' Gary strolled in, with a huge grin on his face.

Everyone's faces started to lit up and helped themselves with the food and drinks after thanking Gary.

'And here's your favourite Americano,' Gary walked to Ji Hyo and gave it to her.

'Thanks,' Ji Hyo forced a smile, and Gary could sense something was wrong.

'So what's the announcement. Eun Ji?' Gary questioned.

Silence.

Then, Ji Hyo started to inform Gary what Eun Ji had said.

After thinking about it for a while, Gary had an idea. 'How about we have a vote and each of us decide if it's suitable or not for Eun Ji to do it?' Gary voiced out his idea as he took a sip of his coffee.

'Okay,' Eun Ji agreed and the others nodded approvingly.

'I don't think Eun Ji should do it,' Haha was the first one to speak. Eun Ji frowned and looked at the others.

'I think she should do it. Besides, it will be a new experience for her, and I think she'll be safe,' Ji Hyo smiled, followed by Eun Ji.

'I agree with Ji Hyo,' Eun Hye grinned slyly, as if she had something up her sleeves.

Soon, the voting was over and it was a tie, 3-3.  The Monday couple and Eun Hye on one side, with Jong Kook, Haha and Jae Suk on the other side.

Almost immediately after the voting was over, Nick arrived, in a black jacket, with a smile on his face, and the grin was somewhat like Eun Hye's.

Nobody knew what happened at Ji Hyo's father's office except the Monday Couple, so the others welcomed him happily.

'Hi. So what are you guys doing?' Nick inquired.

After filling him in about what had happened, Nick was also asked to vote.

'Please say yes,' Eun Ji thought as she clasped her hands together.

'Please say no,' Haha thought, feeling anxious.

Nick placed his hands in his pockets and exchanged a quick look with Eun Hye. As usual, Ace Ji Hyo spotted it and knew something was going on between them.

"Sure, I mean, why not? I think she'll be fine. Moreover, Kwang Soo and her are acquaintances. Am I right?" Nick answered.

Eun Ji was in glee and was glad that she could help to treat Kwang Soo's illness. On the other hand, the other three who were against the idea were a little angry. 

"How about the letter?" Gary whispered to her girlfriend as he finished his coffee in one gulp.

"Oh yeah, the letter!" Ji Hyo blurted out as she took the letter out. She told the others only about the letter, but leaving out Nick being the bodyguard and the quarrel between her father and her. While she was talking, Nick shifted uncomfortably, but was relieved that Ji Hyo did not reveal everything which had happened.

Ji Hyo hurriedly handed the letter to Jong Kook .

"Wow!" Everyone chorused as crowded around Jong Kook and they looked at the letter, including Nick and Eun Hye.

"Dang, I shouldn't have showed the letter now. Eun Hye and Nick are present. I think that the both of them might be evil," Ji Hyo thought.
