Chapter 172: Chapter 172: The Chinese Variety Show (Part 3)


[Yoo-gwang is out. Yoo-gwang is out. You may return after five minutes.]


“Nice.”


It was so good to hear that the guy was out, but he would still be back in after five minutes. I would love nothing more than to get him kicked out again. Just then, I saw Sullin standing in front of an elevator. The female member of the Chinese team from Run and Run. Perfect height and perfect body, as well as a beautiful, well-proportioned face. She got onto the elevator as I ran after her. I stuck my arm in between the doors, preventing them from closing.


Ding-


The elevator doors reopened and I got in. Sullin’s eyes widened as soon as she saw me.


“Oh!”


Wait, wasn’t that Korean? Anyways, I smiled at her.


“Hello~”


“Oh, hi…” Sullin said shyly. But wait a second. She can speak Korean?


“Oh, you speak Korean?”


“Yes…hehe…I lived here for a while when I was a child.”


“Oh.”


I didn’t know that. No, wait. I think I read about that in an article somewhere before.


“I’m a huge fan of yours, Sian!”


“Yes, yes,” I said, with a big smile.


“May I shake your hand…?” Sullin asked bashfully.


“Yes, of course,” I said sticking out my hand. Sullin took it, and she blushed. Did she like holding my hand that much? Hehe. Well, aren’t I popular? But just then, Sullin attacked. She came forward as if to hug me and all of a sudden, her left arm swung around me. She soon had her hand on my name tag and…she couldn’t rip it off. Of course, she couldn’t. Why? Because now her left arm was in my hand.


“What do you think you’re doing?”


“Oh…” Sullin had a panicked look on her face. She probably was not expecting me to react so quickly.


“Were you trying to rip my name tag off?”


“Well, I…I just…I’m a huge fan!” she cried out, but I didn’t fall for it this time. I yanked her back into my arms and this time, it was me who swung her left arm around until I had Sullin’s name tag in my hand. I immediately ripped it off.


Rip!


“Oh!”


“Sorry,” I said, swinging her name tag back and forth. I couldn’t believe she would attack me by pretending to be my fan. But just then, Sullin began to cry.


“Waahaa….haaaa….”


‘Oh…’


Shoot. She looked so adorable just now. I just wanted to scoop her up and put her in my pocket.


“Sian, you’re so mean!”


“Uh…”


Ding-dong.


The elevator stopped on the second floor. As soon as the doors opened, I got off. I knew if I stayed any longer with her, I’d probably end up ripping my name tags off for her.


[Sullin is out. Sullin is out. You may return after five minutes.]


“But wow. Her curves though.”


I felt it while we were hugging. They were amazing. How can I put it? It was like two pillows you just wanted to bury yourself in…no, stop. Anyways, I turned to leave when I saw two men come from around the corner. It was Ji-jin and Yoo-gwang.


“Sian!” Yoo-gwang shouted, running over to me. Ji-jin grabbed him by the back of his pants to stop him. He turned to me with a smile.


“Hey, Sian. What are you doing here?”


“Oh, hi. I just got Sullin’s name tag.”


“Oh, that was you? Good job!”


“Thanks.”


“Don’t compliment her! I lost my name tag because of her! Tell him!”


“About what?” I snapped. Yoo-gwang visibly drew back. Nice to know that he listens when I use my murderous wrath at least.


“Yoo-gwang, will you stop? Quit blaming Sian. She’s a girl. You should be ashamed of yourself.”


“And why do you keep taking her side? You’re not even close with her!” Yoo-gwang said, sounding sad.


“I’ve met her twice,” Ji-jin said, giving me another smile.


“Well, you suck. I’m telling everyone how mean you are!”


“….”


“Well then, you two keep talking. I have to go.”


With a wave, I turned to go, but the two men started walking with me.


“Let’s go together, Sian. It’s dangerous for you to be alone.”


“I’m fine,” I said, initially being polite. If I were to be honest, I would’ve told them to fuck off, but there was a camera.


“There’s no need to feel bad.”


“Right.”


Fine, they can do what they want. I’ll use them to distract Luyoung if I run into him again. We soon arrived at the reading room. There’s usually a lot of students in here reading, but today it was completely empty. Was this okay? Eh, whatever. The show producers rented it so they can deal with the fallback.


“Any good books?” I said, looking at the books on the shelves. Books. It may be hard to believe but I am an avid book-lover. How else would I have become the best of the best? I got where I am by doing back-breaking training but also by mastering as much as I could.


“I sure did a lot.”


Yeah, but I only read about twenty books in my former lifetime. After that, every time I went near one, I would end up ripping it. But just then, I saw it. A box.


“I found one,” I said, with a smile. But when I read the card, it said ‘Gotcha!’


“Are you kidding me?”


I threw the card at a window the card got stuck in the glass. I began walking again and found another box hidden in one of the desks.


“Wow.”


That’s two now. I opened it. Another fake card.


“Seriously?”


I threw the card again and this one, too, got stuck in the window glass. I walked some more. But just then, I heard Ji-jin and Yoo-gwang shout.


“Aaah!”


“It’s Luyoung!”


They started to run away while we could hear the sound of feet stomping as Luyoung ran into the room, but it wasn’t just Luyoung. Jang-chun was with him as well.


“Oh.”


I hid behind the desk, watching the whole thing. Ji-jin and Yoo-gwang managed to make their escape (had they always been that fast?) but Luyoung and Jang-chun ran after them just as quickly.


Zoom!


Ji-jin and Yoo-gwang passed right by me.


Zoom!


So did Luyoung and Jang-chun. How did they not see me? Well, now I was stuck to the ceiling. The VJ that was following me was also looking around, trying to find me. And that’s when I saw it. One of the tables way over there had a small box hidden in one of its compartments! It really does help to look from higher places. I immediately made my way over to the box. And the VJ found me immediately.


“Sian, where were you?” the VJ asked curiously.


“Oh. I just went somewhere.”


“You just disappeared. You scared me…”


“Sorry,” I apologized. Then I opened the box. A card was inside. And this time, it wasn’t a fake. The words were intriguing as well.


[Summon the enemy.]


A card that would allow me to call an opponent of my choice to my location. Perfect.


“I want to use this.”


“Now?” the VJ asked, shocked. Just then, off in the distance, we heard the sounds of stomping and crashing before hearing the loud sound of name tags being ripped off. From the shouting, it sounded like it was Ji-jin’s name tag. Soon, Yoo-gwang’s cries joined in as well.


[Ji-jin is out. Ji-jin is out. You may return after five minutes.]


[Yoo-gwang is out. Yoo-gwang is out.]


Yoo-gwang was now out of the game. Thank goodness.


“Yes, now.”


“But there’s two of them over there,” VJ said, pointing. It was Luyoung and Jang-chun, holding up the name tags. Ji-jin and Yoo-gwang must have struggled a lot because their clothes were all ripped. Soon, Luyoung and Jang-chun saw me and approached me with big smiles on their faces.


“Yeah, that’s why I want to use it.”


“….”


The VJ looked confused, but then, he spoke up.


“Who do you want to summon?”


“Sullin.”


“Okay.”


The VJ called the producer and soon, Sullin was called to the scene.


***



The atmosphere was filled with tension and confusion. I was standing along in the reading room, facing three members from the Chinese team: Jang-chun, Luyoung, and Sullin.


“Sian, I’ll just take one okay?” Jang-chun said, making his way over to me. Luyoung smirked in response, but Sullin pouted.


“I want to take Sian’s name tag.”


“You?”


“Yeah. She got mine earlier,” Sullin said, showing her back to us. Everyone nodded.


“Alright, go ahead.”


“You two take care of her then.”


“I’ll do it,” Jang-chun said, standing in front of me. The confidence was evident on his face. No doubt, he thought that I was an easy mark. Does he not watch the news?


“Hey, Sian,” Jang-chun said.


“Yes?”


“I know you’re good at fighting.”


“Yep.”


“But I have plenty of experience in martial arts. I doubt you can beat me.”


“Hmm…”


Bet I could.


“I’ll show you how good I am.”


“Go ahead,” I said, rolling out my shoulders and stretching my fingers. Wait, why did I stretch my fingers? I’m not going to hit him. I guess it’s a habit. Anyways, Jang-chun got into his position to rip my name tag off. Then, he spoke up again.


“But, Sian?”


“Yes?”


“Would you like to grab some dinner me with tonight?”


“Ooooh~” Sullin. Luyoung remained quiet. But then again, he doesn’t understand Korean.


“Dinner? You want to get food?” I asked. Just asking. I wanted to see if he knew what he was getting into.


“Yeah. Just a simple dinner. Do I still make you uncomfortable?”


“A simple dinner doesn’t sound appealing to me.”


“Hehe.”


Jang-chun smirked as if he’d been expecting my answer.


“Oh!” Sullin gasped, covering her mouth with both her hands as she blushed. No doubt these two were interpreting my response differently from what I meant. Anyways, Jang-chun continued talking.


“I didn’t expect you to be so straight forward. Fine. I don’t mind getting straight to the point. Does this make us an interracial couple?”


“What?”


What the hell is this guy saying? Wait a second. Does he think I meant that I want to sleep with him? Wow, this pervert. Just then, he dropped his voice to a whisper so only I could hear.


“I’ll reserve a room in the best hotel in Seoul. Since a simple dinner isn’t appealing for you, I’ll make it as spicy and hot as possible. I’m quite skilled in bed, you know. Hehe.”


“Crazy bastard.”


I grabbed him by the head and pushed him down. He was now flat on the ground with his back exposed to me. I reached down and ripped his name tag off.


Rip!


I must have ripped too hard because a piece of his shirt came off with it.
