Chapter 167: Chapter 167.

“Are you still feeling Sun’s pain?”

Gyeonhui nodded to answer Ojae.

“Did you… tell Sun about your situation, that you feel her pain…?”

Gyeonhui, this time, slowly shook his head.

“If she knew that, then she could hint us on how to get to her somehow…”

Ojae said so because using Gyenohui to feel Sun’s pain meant that she could lead him to come and save her.

“I haven’t because I was afraid…” Gyeonhui answered with a sunken voice.

“What do you mean you were afraid?”

Gyeonhui only nodded his head.

At that moment, Gyeonhui recalled the time when he had a conversation with Sun.

‘I’m actually a little afraid because I don’t know why you have changed so much like this. Do you have anything that you’re hiding from me? You’re not going to make me embarrassed later, are you?”

Gyeonhui couldn’t tell everything to her honestly.

He was afraid that she would think that this change happened because of his ability to feel her pain, not because he voluntarily thought that he needed to change.

“I would tell her everything soon. I would… when things got better…”

Closing his eyes, Gyeonhui exhaled a long sigh of frustration.

There was only silence between Gyeonhui and Ojae in the living room. However, the silence didn’t last long enough, and it was soon broken.

The local police visited him.

***

In the parking lot of the department store.

Chunduk was going home after work while humming a song when Woochang suddenly showed up and blocked Chunduk’s way.

“You scared me.” Chunduk was relieved when he saw that it was Woochang.

Chunduk’s assistants soon came and guarded him against Woochang.

“Who the hell are you, and what are you doing here?”

“Get out of the way.”

Woochang just said one word and approached Chunduk. Then, Chunduk’s assistants started attacking Woochang, but Woochang quickly moved his body and avoided their fists.

When Woochang beat them down in an instant, he approached Chunduk again.

“Hey, man. Take it easy.” Chunduk said with a smile.

“Why are you not answering my calls?”

“What do you mean? What call?”

Chunduk asked him again as if he knew nothing.

“What…!?” Hearing Chunduk, Woochang frowned.

“Do I know you?”

As soon as Woochang heard Chunduk, Woochang realized the whole situation and that his plan had gone wrong.

“You little bastard!”

“Hey man, I just met you for the first time, be nice.”

Chunduk moved his body toward the security cameras.

“Is this how you want to play this game? You’re in big trouble now.”

“I have no idea what you are talking about, man. How long are you going to stay here?”

Chunduk said while pointing behind Woochang.

When the security staff saw what was happening in the parking lot through the camera, they came for Woochang.

Biting his teeth, Woochang glared at Chunduk furiously.

“I’ll definitely see you again.”

Woochang gave up on Chunduk and started running away to the opposite side of the parking lot.

“I’ve seen a lot of people like you, and I’m still here. Haha.”

Chunduk smirked and adjusted his clothes.

“Are you okay, Sir?”

“Yes, I’m absolutely okay. Sure.”

“Do you want us to go after him?”

“No, don’t bother. I’m going to let him live because I’m a generous man.”

Chunduk smiled satisfied and got in his car.

“Okay, we’ll start the investigation as soon as possible.”

The detective who heard everything about Sun from Gyeonhui and Ojae stood up from his seat.

“Please find her as soon as possible.”

At that moment, Gyeonhui frowned over the pain in his wrist.

“What’s wrong?”

“My wrist suddenly hurts so much.”

“Your wrist?”

Holding his own wrist, Gyeonhui was lost in thought.

“Do you think it’s her pain?”

“Gyeonhui nodded at Ojae without letting the police know about it.

“But why is it your wrist…?”

“… I think she has been tied up.”

“What…?”

Gyeonhui nodded with a serious expression.

This pain was the only decisive evidence that she was kidnapped.

Gyeonhui’s face hardened even more.

***

Sun continuously but carefully twisted her tied wrist to loosen it while watching Sarah.

Because her two hands were tied up behind her back, it didn’t seem like Sarah noticed what Sun was trying to do.

“Ow…”

The more she twisted her wrist, the more the rough strap hurt them, but Sun couldn’t stop.

The rope was getting loose, and it seemed like if she pushed it a little more, she might be able to free her wrist from the knot.

At that moment, Sun heard the door in the warehouse open.

Sun quickly stopped moving her hands.

‘Kung, kung, kung, kung.’

She heard that a man was approaching her.

Her heartbeat was pounding so fast and loud because she felt like he would definitely catch her.

“Was everything okay, here?” He asked.

“Oh, yes. Nothing happened here.” Sarah said.

Sun thought that he wouldn’t grab him or anything like that, so she exhaled a sigh of relief. However, her struggle came into nothing.

“Are you sure nothing has really happened here? Look at this!!!”

Woochang said, roughly snapping Sun’s wrists and showing them to Sarah.

The strap that tied Sun’s wrist was loosened enough for her to take her wrist out of it.

Woochang soon tied her wrist with another strap to make sure it was tight enough.

A desperate shadow of disappointment appeared on Sun’s face.

“Aren’t you doing your job well!? Huh?!”

“I’m… I’m so sorry…”

Sarah was sacred, and she answered after standing up right away.

“How did it go…? Did the deal go well with Chunduk? What did he say?” Sarah asked.

“The plan went wrong. The bastard… he betrayed me.”

“What…?! Why!?”

“How should I know that!?” Woochang yelled at Sarah violently.

“Don’t we need to run away then? I’m scared…” Sarah was scared in panic and said in a crying voice.

However, Woochang looked at Sun without saying anything and slowly started speaking.

“I know who to call. We can ask another man.”

“Another man? Who?”

“… The CEO of Consencio, Gyeonhui Woo.”

As soon as Sun heard Gyeonhui’s name, her eyes immediately shook.

“And I know exactly how to make him come here quickly. Haha.”

He smiled nastily and started dragging a metal pipe that was thrown at the corner before approaching Sun. Sun hurriedly tried to back up, but she couldn’t do anything. Soon, Woochang lifted up the metal pipe high.

Looking up at him, Sun’s eyes were filled with nothing but fear.
