Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 178

Chapter 178: GHOST STORIES

OF COURSE, Hyung would be over the top.

Yuno was already determined to love Ki Gayoon as much as he could.

But that didn’t mean he wouldn’t be embarrassed while sitting between the Esper’s legs while they were on the sofa.

No one said anything.

But Yuno couldn’t bear the warm looks that Lee Sarang, Lee Haerin, Lee Woonhok, Kwon Hojun, and Kim Jaeha were giving them.

They obviously think Hyung is acting cute, but no one has the guts to say that out loud.

Yuno had to agree with them, though.

Even though that position was embarrassing, it was cute how Ki Gayoon had his arms wrapped around Yuno’s waist while his face was buried in his neck.

Well, we need this much skinship anyway since I need Hyung’s Mana.

"Kim Jaeha, are you really okay now?" Yuno asked worriedly, his hands playing with Ki Gayoon’s hands absent-mindedly. "You’re not hurt anywhere?"

"I’m totally okay now, Hyung," Kim Jaeha said. "And it’s all thanks to all of you, especially to you, Yuno Hyung."

"That’s right," Ki Gayoon mumbled grumpily. "You better dedicate your life to Noh Yuno from now on, kid."

Aigoo.

Kim Jaeha, for some reason, readily agreed with what Ki Gayoon said. "Y-Yes, sir! I’ll be loyal to Yuno Hyung for the rest of my life."

"Don’t mind him," Yuno said, waving his hand. "Is it okay if we ask questions now, Jaeha-ya?"

Kim Jaeha then put on a determined look on his face. "Yes, Hyung."

"What happened?"

"Uhm, Matthew Hyung was mad because we lost Sarang Noona and Hanjin Hyung because of the recent events. So, he lashed out at me," Kim Jaeha said, and it was amazing how the kid was able to remain calm. "He beat me up, and it was worse than usual."

"Than usual," the kid says.

Kim Jaeha may have not noticed it, but everyone stiffened up because his statement implied that he was being physically abused consistently.

And it seems like Kim Jaeha thinks it’s normal.

"Matthew Hyung seems like he wants to kill me this time. But, thankfully, Rebecca Noona came and saved me. Sooin Noona also came, but I don’t remember what happened after that since I fainted," Kim Jaeha continued with his explanation. "When I woke up, I was already in the alleyway where Kwon Hojun-ssi found me. I vaguely remember Sooin Noona telling me that I have to carry that "thing.""

Kim Jaeha then clutched his chest tight.

"Sooin Noona said it would hurt, and it did, when she inserted something in my chest."

Ah, so it was Jin Sooin who put the Esper Core in Kim Jaeha’s heart.

"I fainted again because of how much it hurt," Kim Jaeha said, hugging himself as he remembered the painful experience he had just gone through. "When I opened my eyes again, I was already here. I don’t remember much of what happened while I was being brought here, though."

"Thank you for telling us, Jaeha-ya," Yuno said. "You did well."

Kim Jaeha’s face lit up.

"Jaeha-ya, you’re not going to return there, are you?" Lee Sarang asked carefully. "Please don’t. I’ll protect you, so don’t be afraid of them."

That fucking bastard—

Right, I saw a ghost earlier.
