Guide Me If You Dare-Chapter 132: AND THE RESPONSE
Chapter 132: AND THE RESPONSE
"I LIKE you, Noh Yuno— I really, really like you."
Of course, Yuno already knew Ki Gayoon had feelings for him.
I just didn’t expect Gayoon Hyung to confess so bluntly while I was in the middle of my PowerPoint presentation.
Was that romantic or what?
"And you like me, too, Noh Yuno."
"Excuse me?"
I mean, Hyung is not exactly wrong. But I’m not ready for this conversation yet! Especially after what happened...
"You probably think I almost died because I confessed to you indirectly before."
Yuno flinched because Ki Gayoon hit the bull’s eye.
Hyung already knows me too well.
"First of all, I didn’t almost die," Ki Gayoon said firmly as if he was insulted. "It’s embarrassing that I fainted because my Mana was absorbed without my knowing, but that’s just it. That bastard with an ugly English name didn’t do shit. I was hurt because he used my skills against me, and my skills are so damn amazing."
Pfft.
Yuno knew it was a serious conversation, and he knew that Ki Gayoon was only stating the truth.
But the way the Esper explained it was so cute and funny.
Or maybe my humor is just broken.
"So, it wasn’t your fault, Noh Yuno," Ki Gayoon said sternly. "I didn’t get hurt because I indirectly confessed to you, and I wouldn’t die after I confessed to you properly."
"We’ll see, Hyung."
"Yah. Do you want me to die?"
"Three months," Yuno said, sighing. "All those people who confessed to me in the past died within three months after their confession."
"So, you think I’m going to die in three months?"
"Hyung..."
"I’m not going to die in three months," Ki Gayoon said firmly. "So, let’s date."
"But Hyung..."
"If I’m really going to die in three months, then it’s better to die dating you rather than die pinning for you. Only then would my death be worth it."
Haaah.
It was weird, but Ki Gayoon said it with such conviction that it sounded convincing.
To be fair, Hyung’s argument makes sense. If I’m going to die, I’d rather die doing what I want rather than not doing at all either.
However...
"I don’t want you to die, Hyung."
"I’m right, am I not? You like me," Ki Gayoon said smugly, and then he curled a finger at him. "Come here."
Yuno was surprised when his body suddenly levitated.
And then he suddenly found himself flying towards Ki Gayoon.
Oh, it’s Hyung’s telekinesis power.
The distance between the two of them was only short, so it only took a few seconds before Yuno landed safely on Ki Gayoon’s lap sideways.
Hyung really likes this position.
"Yuno-ya, I’m not going to die," Ki Gayoon said, snaking his arms around Yuno’s waist. And then he pulled him closer to his body. "I’m going to break your curse and live happily ever after with you."
Pfft.
It was funny to hear the Ki Gayoon say something so cheesy.
"I think Hyung likes me more than I like Hyung."
"Damn right," Ki Gayoon admitted casually as if it wasn’t a big deal to him. "I fell first, and I fell harder."
"Hyung, where did you learn phrases like that, huh? You sound like a meme."
"I learned them from your webcomics."
"You read my works?!"
"Yeah," Ki Gayoon admittedly boldly. "Speaking of that, I’d like to try one of the sex scenes in your last work—"
Yuno covered Ki Gayoon’s mouth with his hand, embarrassed.
Most artists would agree with me when I say we don’t like talking about the smut scenes in our works!
Ki Gayoon, who noticed that Yuno was embarrassed, smirked...
... and then he licked Yuno’s palm.
"Hyung!" Yuno complained, pulling his hand away from Ki Gayoon’s mouth. "Behave. We’re in the hospital."
"Your characters did it in the hospital once."
"That doesn’t mean we should do it in real life. That’s nasty and traumatizing to the hospital staff. They would know."
"Well, in our reality, it’s normal for Espers and Guides to do it anywhere."
Aigoo.
Yuno cupped Ki Gayoon’s face between his hands, and then he gave him a light kiss on the lips to shut him up.
Of course, the greedy Esper wasn’t satisfied with a peck.
Ki Gayoon tightened his hold on Yuno while kissing him. The Esper bit his lips tenderly, woving his tongue into his mouth.
Feeling Ki Gayoon’s soft tongue moving around in his mouth made him moan.
Yuno found himself wrapping his arms around Ki Gayoon’s neck, kissing him as fervently as he did.
But the Esper suddenly broke the kiss.
Why...?
"Our first time as a couple can’t be in the hospital," Ki Gayoon said, but his hands were already under Yuno’s shirt. "Give me time to prepare for a romantic—"
"I want to go back to Busan."
"Okay. What else does my Babe Princess want?"
Pfft.
The way Ki Gayoon talked was so cringey, but Yuno would admit that he could look past the cringe because his man was hot.
Pretty privilege is so damn real.
"Hyung has to recreate our dinner date by the beach."
"Aw. You didn’t like the dinner date I prepared then?"
"You asked your friend to create a sand castle of my bust with a poop on my head," Yuno reminded him bluntly. "Do you think that’s romantic, Hyung?"
Ki Gayoon chuckled "Touché."
To be honest, Yuno wasn’t still sure if dating Ki Gayoon was the right thing to do.
But he wanted to believe in his Esper.
In his man.
My feelings for this hyung are stronger than my fear, but I’m still worried.
"Yuno-ya, I’m not going to be another trauma for you," Ki Gayoon said, holding Yuno’s hand and kissing his knuckles. "Please trust me."
"You really can’t die, Hyung," Yuno said sternly. "If you die, I’ll die, too."
"Yah. Rule number 1, remember?"
"Who cares about that when we’re both dead?"
Ki Gayoon let out a sigh. "Noh Yuno, I’ll add a new rule: don’t fall for me too hard."
"What? I thought you’d want me to at least like you as much as you do."
"Nah, I’m okay being the person who loves the other more in this relationship. If you fall for me harder, I’m afraid you’d be willing to die for me."
"It’s okay if you die for me, but it’s not okay if I die for you?"
"Yuno-ya, none of us is going to die," Ki Gayoon said, talking as if he was consoling a child. "Trust me."
"Okay," Yuno said, nodding. "I’ll trust you, Hyung."
"We’re dating now, aren’t we?"
"Yes?"
"Then I officially lost to Moon Noa now."
"Did you make a bet with Sajangnim?"
"Yeah. I told him I’ll change my last name to ’Noh’ if I confessed to you before the month ends."
"Why did you make a bet like that when you knew you’d lose? Aigoo. Even I could tell you like me so much, Hyung."
"Woah, this punk has become arrogant."
"Why not?" Yuno asked casually, shrugging. "I bagged the most handsome and the most powerful Esper in the country."
Ki Gayoon burst out laughing. "Damn right, you did," he said proudly, and then he pulled out his phone from his pocket. "I’ll call the sly fox to announce my defeat."
Yuno just nodded and kept quiet when the Esper made a call.
Gayoon Hyung and Sajangnim could really be childish sometimes.
"I’m dating Noh Yuno now— today marks our first day as a couple," Ki Gayoon said proudly while talking to Moon Noa on the phone. "I’ll change my last name to ’Noh’ after three months, Noa Hyung."
Pfft.
Yuno laughed while hitting Ki Gayoon on the chest. "Hyung, you’re crazy!"

"SUNGBIN Hyung, did you safely retrieve it?" Bambi asked Ryu Sungbin when the two of them were finally alone in his penthouse. "No one saw you, right?"
"I think Lee Sarang saw me hiding the USB instead of submitting it to President Kwak as evidence against the criminals, but she didn’t say anything," Ryu Sungbin explained. "Lee Sarang is still under Mo Hanjin’s influence, isn’t she?"
"Yes, so don’t worry about her. Did you check the content of the USB?"
The USB the two of them were talking about contained the data that the enemies left in the abandoned hide-out.
Since it was a surprise raid, the enemies had barely escaped and left traces before their group arrived there.
Yes, Bambi came with the Top 5 (excluding Ki Gayoon from the mission because of his heavy injuries).
But so did Kwak Hakjae— the Esper Association President.
That’s why I asked Sungbin Hyung to steal the data before President Kwak gets his hands on it. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
"The data we retrieved reveals one of that organization’s goals."
"What is it then?"
"Noh Yihun," Ryu Sungbin said. "That would be Noh Yuno— and his fellow E-Class Guides want him back."
Bambi smiled, relieved that they got a piece of useful information. "Then we can use Guide Noh Yuno-ssi to make a deal with those bastards."
