Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 32

Chapter 32: ROLE MODEL

KI GAYOON didn’t know why, but he felt kind of nervous while waiting for Noh Yuno’s response. But, in his defense, he just didn’t want a messy professional relationship with his exclusive Guide.

If that woman turned out to be Noh Yuno’s ex-girlfriend, then it might turn into a problem since she seems to be the obsessive type—

"Ahjuhyung, why do you assume my female stalker is my ex-girlfriend?"

"What?"

"Is it safe to assume that you think I’m straight?"

"Are you not?"

"I like anyone who’s pretty," Noh Yuno said, shrugging. "Anyway, you still haven’t investigated why Kim Jeemin-ssi is stalking me?"

"Nah, I’m not interested in why that woman is stalking you. In the first place, my people just found it by accident while keeping an eye on..."

Oh.

Crap.

Why do I keep making stupid mistakes around this punk?

"So, the people who are keeping an eye on me noticed Kim Jeemin-ssi?" Noh Yuno asked while touching his chin as if he was thinking. "That means Kim Jeemin-ssi returned earlier than I expected. The warning I got from my colleague was late then." _{freewebnσvel.cøm}

Gayoon knitted his eyebrows, confused.

This isn’t the reaction I was expecting from this punk.

"Hey, I put people on your trail."

"I heard you loud and clear, Ahjuhyung."

"Are you not upset?"

"A Guide that can give you Guiding when not even the S-Class Guide Bambi-ssi could suddenly appear out of nowhere. Of course, you’d find me suspicious. If I were you, I would have done the same."

"Normal people would have been upset after finding out they were under surveillance."

"Are we normal people, Ahjuhyung?"

Oh.

"Ahjuhyung belongs to the First Generation of Espers who were used by the government as lab rats," Noh Yuno said casually. "I awakened as a Guide during the time our value skyrocketed, thanks to your generation’s First Rampage. Thanks to Ahjuhyung’s generation, the government realized that they should put a leash on the Guides if they wanted to control the Espers of this country."

"You’re blaming my generation for your generation’s misfortune?"

"The Guides didn’t belong to the government at first."

"So, you’re saying it’s my generation’s fault?"

"Of course not. The only entity we should blame here is the government during Sajangnim’s grandfather’s reign."

"Don’t you think we’re getting side-tracked here?"

"Right," Noh Yuno agreed while nodding. "I’m just saying that I’m used to getting investigated."

"That’s not normal, punk. Don’t get used to it," Gayoon said, sighing. "My people won’t keep an eye on you anymore. If there’s something I want to know about you, I’ll just ask you directly."

"Good. If you have something you want to know about E-Class Guides, then just ask me instead of Sajangnim. My boss doesn’t know anything."

"You know that Moon Noa sealed his memories?"

"I think it’s better that if Sajangnim keeps them sealed," Noh Yuno said. "I hate to meddle with my boss’ personal life, but I have to say this: Sajangnim will yield to Esper Ryu Sungbin if ever Esper Ryu Sungbin seduces him."

Right?

Even Gayoon could tell that much.

"I don’t want Esper Ryu Sungbin to have that upper hand after what he did to Sajangnim. My boss may have forgiven Esper Ryu Sungbin already, but not me. I hold grudges."

"Alright. Then I’ll just ask you from now on if ever I get curious. But you don’t have to answer my questions if doing so will put you in danger."

"Ahjuhyung, is it possible that you’re worried—"

"I’ll be screwed if I lose my exclusive Guide after paying a fortune for you."

Just how did Moon Noa raise that punk to be that careless of his life?

<"Nah, I’m no longer interested.">

Yoonyoon entered a dungeon to prove that he’s stronger than Ryu Sungbin to gain my trust, but now he’s saying he’s no longer interested?

We put him in the seat after we ousted my grandfather.
