Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138: SETTING BOUNDARIES

"YOONYOON~"

Ki Gayoon clicked his tongue internally when Moon Noa joined his table without being invited to.

He was in the National Guide Bureau HQ’s café while waiting for Noh Yuno.

"What’s taking the punk so long?" Gayoon complained after taking a sip of his decaf coffee. Yes, decaf. "That Bambi isn’t torturing him for information, right?"

"Yang Youngjae is talking to him."

Noh Yuno was alone with Yang Youngjae?

My boyfriend is alone with the Esper that attacked him recently?!

Gayoon immediately stood up, but Moon Noa suddenly grabbed him by the arm and pulled him back to his seat.

This old man...

"Calm down, Yoonyoon," Moon Noa said. "As an S-Class Guide, I assure you that Yang Youngjae is completely sane and sober. I wouldn’t have left Yuyu with him otherwise."

Haaah.

Gayoon couldn’t trust Moon Noa as a person, but he could trust the sly fox as an S-Class Guide.

And he won’t let anything bad happen to Noh Yuno.

"I didn’t get to say this on the phone because you ended the call right away, but congratulations on finally dating the man of your dreams, Yoonyoon~"

Gayoon just scoffed before sipping his decaf coffee.

"Are you happy?"

"That’s none of your business."

"It seems like Yuyu isn’t 100% into your relationship, though," Moon Noa said. "What are you doing, Yoonyoon? You should shower Yuyu with your love until he ends up liking you as much as you like him."

"That will never happen until I break the "curse,"" Gayoon said calmly. "Noh Yuno still thinks I’m going to die within three months, so he’s putting a wall between us."

Of course, I’d like it if Noh Yuno stopped holding back his feelings for me.

But he was contented with the current state of their relationship.

For now.

"How do you plan to break the "curse," Yoonyoon?"

"By staying alive."

Moon Noa burst out laughing. "Yes, you should at least be that optimistic to date a tough nut like Yuyu."

"Enough about me and my boyfriend," Gayoon said, and yes, he sounded proud when he called Noh Yuno his ’boyfriend’ in front of Moon Noa. "You’re not here just to talk about my relationship, are you?"

"What are you going to do about the Japanese and Chinese Espers here?"

Ah, so that’s why the sly fox approached me.

"I’m going to Ryu Sungbin’s house tonight with the other kids to discuss that," Gayoon said, pausing for a moment. "That bastard has many houses, so I don’t know which one he’s talking about. But he told me to ask you because, apparently, you’d know where he lives."

"Binbin is probably talking about his penthouse in High Fortress, the most luxurious apartment in Yongsan-gu. That’s the house he uses when working with the Top 5."

"Are you Ryu Sungbin’s stalker?"

"Yes."

Haaah.

"Yoonyoon, can you convince Binbin not to be hostile towards the Japanese Espers?" Moon Noa asked in a serious tone. "I’ll talk to Haruharu first."

Ah, it seemed like the sly fox had a plan.

"Alright, I can do that..."

Gayoon trailed off when he got a text message from Noh Yuno.

["Hyung, I’m hungry. Where are you?"]

"You’re smiling," Moon Noa teased Gayoon. "It’s a text from Yuyu, isn’t it?"

"Obviously," Gayoon said, standing up while checking the menu. Fortunately, the café had donuts— Noh Yuno’s favorite dessert. There was also a banana milkshake on the menu, so he’d get that for his boyfriend. "I’ll go and feed your hungry kid, Noa Hyung."

Moon Noa looked shocked when Gayoon called him ’hyung’ face-to-face, and then the sly fox burst out laughing.

***

YUNO was about to scold Ki Gayoon for being unprofessional by refusing to send a report just to protect him.

But when they got in the car, Ki Gayoon handed him some snacks.

Donuts and banana milkshake.

Which he appreciated since he needed sugar after a stressful day.

Okay, maybe it’s not worth starting a fight over something insignificant.

But while Yuno was peacefully munching on his donuts, Ki Gayoon suddenly picked a fight.

"I heard you gave Lee Sarang a light Guiding."

"Yeah, I did."

"Why didn’t you tell me?"

"Ah, I forgot," Yuno said, raising an eyebrow. "Why are you upset, Hyung?"

Because there are more Espers than Guides in this country.

Ah, I think I get what’s happening.

Okay, just a little bit of push.
