Chapter 259: Understanding
Seon Woo-jin flashed a sneer to provoke Jin Tae-do, then turned his head back toward Jin So-eun.
Then, lying flat on her back, she felt his gaze and saw Jin So-eun struggling to get up from the floor.
Having carried Mayu-gyeom and Myo-a-ran across the bridge, her stamina now seemed completely depleted.
She, who had defeated a supreme master, could barely support her own body.
‘Throwing that club to me must have taken every ounce of strength she had left.’
He felt a fresh wave of gratitude toward her.
And somehow, even her disheveled appearance, drenched in sweat, seemed strangely endearing.
Seon Woo-jin held her back as she struggled to get up.
“Young Master Jin, you may simply lie down. I’m exhausted anyway and plan to rest for a while.”
“Ah, but Jin Taedo…”
“It’s fine. After they descended from Bongam, it’ll take them quite some time to circle the mountain and follow us. They must be exhausted too.”
Jin So-eun stopped trying to get up at Seon Woo-jin’s warm words.
She lay back down on the floor, sprawled out.
She didn’t want to show this side of herself in front of Seon Woo-jin, but there was nothing she could do now.
“Haaah.”
Jin So-eun let out a deep sigh, as if exhaling her last breath.
And she closed her eyes as if fainting.
The tension released, and she immediately fell asleep.
“Snore.”
Sunwoo Jin chuckled softly at the sight of Jin So-eun, who had fallen asleep the moment she closed her eyes, even snoring softly.
