"Now, start talking about it. I believe that you have tormented me enough," Soohyun vocalised as she plopped down on the bed

A chuckle escaped Minhyun's throat, and raising one of his eyebrows, he questioned, "Are you angry?"

Seeing that Minhyun was clearly amused by this she wanted to punch him, but she held it in. There was no way she was going to be successful in that.

"No," She voiced out, "I am not."

"Liar," Minhyun vocalised, "Since you are angry at this moment, it would be safer for me to not talk to you currently."

His back leaned against the wall as he was standing, and the corner of his lips curved to form a smile. Under the lighting, he appeared quite mesmerising, coupled with the glint in his eyes. 

If it was not for the fact that Soohyun was infuriated by him at this very moment, she would not be able to stop herself from admiring him. 

A frustrated sigh left her mouth, and Soohyun said, "You are doing this purposely, right, Minhyun? Ah! Why do you have to be this annoying!? Geez!"

"I thought that you found this side of mine charming," Minhyun stated, "You have a long day before you tomorrow. Go to bed early."

Folding her arms across her chest, Soohyun showed mock on her face while she vocalised, "Is Han Minhyun going back on his words? Well, that's new. Then again, they did say that all men are liars."

"From next time onwards, you need to start recording conversations for you have the tendency to forget them, and then falsely accuse. I have never mentioned on how I will be telling you about it tonight," Minhyun pointed out as a laugh left his mouth.

Whilst directing a glare at Minhyun's direction, Soohyun forced out a smile on her face and said, "Well, I would not be forcing you then. This doesn't exactly concern me, and that was just a momentary curiosity. Knowing or not knowing the truth would not be affecting me in any way."

"I am kidding," Minhyun stated, "You don't have to pout over that. Although I can't tell you about the entire thing right now, I will try to give you information about some things."

Raising her head, Soohyun stared towards Minhyun, and her eyes held a certain sparkle to them. The sight of those eyes was able to make his heart palpitate rapidly within his chest. Her eyes were extremely expressive at times, and they were able to mesmerise him. 

"Really? Are you not tricking me again?" Soohyun questioned as she stared at him sternly and raised one of her eyebrows. 

"When did I do that?" Minhyun asked while he

walked towards Soohyun and sat down beside her.

Turning her head, Soohyun looked towards Minhyun and waited for him to inform her regarding the truth. The antic.i.p.ation within her rose.

"Well, firstly, this is barely known by anyone, and if it is spread out, the consequences can be horrible. Listen, my name is not Han Minhyun, and I am not a Han. My—"

Before Minhyun could continue, he heard knocks on the door, and disappointment filled Soohyun at that moment. Han Minhyun's words astounded her, and when he was about to get to the best part, someone had to come to interfere.

Hiding the irritation from her face, she said, "I guess that's a pity."

"I will go and check what it is about," Minhyun voiced out, "It must be something urgent."

Lee Soohyun nodded at his words, and after that, Minhyun stood up to go towards the door. She decided to follow after him.

Extending his hand towards it, Minhyun held the handle to the door and pulled the door open. As Soohyun stood behind Minhyun, she tilted her head slightly to see who it was.

One of the palace maids stood in front of them, and seeing the two, she bowed politely. One thing Soohyun had noticed from the workers at here was that they emitted no fear in Minhyun's presence, unlike those back in surface. 

This made Soohyun wonder about what type of man Minhyun was at here.

"Master Minhyun, I am deeply sorry for disturbing you at this moment, but an emergency came up. You are being called to the second infirmary," The Nurse vocalised.

"Hmm, alright," Minhyun said, "I will be coming along."

After that, the Maid bowed and voiced out, "Alright, Master Minhyun. Then, I will be taking my leave; I have to inform other Masters as well."

After Minhyun's nod, the Maid turned her back on him and started walking towards the other direction. Standing beside Minhyun, she raised her head to look at him and poked on his shoulder.

When Minhyun tilted his head to look at her, she questioned, "Can I follow along?"

Soohyun had to admit that she was surprised when Minhyun allowed her to come along to the infirmary with him this easily, and seeing the grave expression on his face, she pulled on a grim look.

Her mind was contaminated with thoughts about what Minhyun had told her on earlier, and her thoughts were all jumbled, trying to figure out everything.

If Han Minhyun was not a Han, then that definitely meant he was from the other five families, and that showed he had to be the Leader from the other five families. But which one of the five families was it?

She could not find his personality matching with any of the other clan. Then again, it could be that he was trained to grow up differently from his childhood.

Extending his hand towards the k.n.o.b, Minhyun pulled open the door to the room, and after that, he stepped into the room. Soohyun followed after him, and immediately, she was able to sense how tense the atmosphere inside was.

Other than some footsteps, nothing else could be heard, and seeing that Minhyun was walking towards one of the room, she went after him. Her hand was intertwined with his.
