The Law of Webnovels

.

Ban Yeo Ryung and the Four Heavenly Kings gushed out a whoop at a time while watching from behind.

“Whoa!”

“Geez!”

“Ch… ung Young!”

While Ban Yeo Ryung, Eun Jiho, and Eun Hyung shouted one after another in perplexity, I bumped my butt on the floor and rubbed my waist while frowning in pain.

I got aware of what happened just now: running into Yi Ruda and Yoo Chun Young pulling me to his side. However, after that, I had no idea what happened. When I turned back to see them, the scene in front of me got me dumbstruck.

Yoo Chun Young was rubbing his lips in a devastated face. Meanwhile, Yi Ruda was kneeling on the floor like a tragically defeated person.

Soon after, she raised her head and asked, “Shit, was it your lips that bumped into me?”

“What?” Yoo Chun Young replied shortly with a grimace.

It was my first time hearing Yi Ruda swearing, which surprised me. She always looked soft and cheerful, so Yi Ruda taking off her mask for the first time disconcerted Yoo Chun Young too.

Yi Ruda asked back, “Hey, was it your lips that bumped into mine just now?” Her face looked like the angel of death.

“Answer me, say something!!”

She yelled out abruptly as if Yoo Chun Young, who remained silent while touching his lips with a pale face, had annoyed her.

Yoo Chun Young still didn’t reply. While everyone watched them in excitement, he stopped touching his lips then raised his hand to cover his mouth. He tottered to the back door. On his way out, he quietly spoke to Eun Hyung while walking past him closely.

“Eun Hyung.”

“Huh…?”

Yoo Chun Young glanced back at Yi Ruda with a pale face then continued.

“I’m going to the bathroom. I might throw up.”

“Uh… yeah.”

As soon as Eun Hyung responded, Yoo Chun Young tottered out the back door as if he would really puke anytime soon.

After he walked out of the space with no agitated reactions, all of us left inside the classroom shared our gazes slowly. A moment later, Yi Ruda burst out in anger while stamping her feet.

“That son of a b*tch!! I’m about to throw up, too! Hey! You!!”

“R… Ruda…”

I called her name while feeling perplexed, but she might have missed it since she rubbed her lips roughly with her sleeve then left the room after Yoo Chun Young.

Geez… I blinked my eyes in confusion.

Although she’s a female crossdresser, could she just walk into a man’s bathroom like that? Especially, when Yoo Chun Young was already inside?

As I watched them walk out of the room while pouting my lips, Eun Jiho’s mumble went into my ears.

“Wow, amazing. How likely are we to bump our lips when collapsing to each other?”

Jooin shook his head and asked back.

“Yeah, but Chun Young… doesn’t he have something like a mysophobia?”

“Right, he doesn’t share cups with anyone. He’s not trying to be sarcastic, but he might have said what he truly meant from the bottom of his heart. Hey, Eun Hyung, shouldn’t we go tap his back?”

“It’s gonna be fine. Chun Young woke up late today, so he didn’t have any breakfast. Nothing will come out. Maybe he’s just going for a mouthwash. Okay, so…”

Eun Hyung responded to Eun Jiho then turned back to look at me. Oh, yes! While exclaiming at the situation that just happened, I totally forgot the reason they came here. Anyway, female crossdressers were different. How could she bump into someone and get kissed?

Eun Hyung’s green eyes bent smoothly, and I stepped back with a bitter smile. Eun Hyung took a step forward and whispered.

“Donnie.”

“Y… eah?”

“We have something to talk about, right?”

Ban Yeo Ryung, who stepped closer together with Eun Hyung, swept her purplish-black hair back. Jooin also smiled and stepped toward me.

When our eyes met, Eun Jiho waved his hand to me and said something by moving his lips quietly. ‘What is he talking about?’ I knitted my brows and turned my head to his side.

‘I told you. You’re dead.’

Okay, sure. Did he want to become a seer? Before I could take a moment to applaud them, my face turned pale when I saw Eun Hyung and Ban Yeo Ryung getting closer to me. Oh, lord, please…

* * *

Out of the one-hour lunch break, we spent 40 minutes to chase Ham Donnie. Now, there were only about 10 minutes left until the end of the break and a few sophomores were brushing their teeth near the bathroom sink. Other than that, no one else was inside the bathroom.

Yoo Chun Young retched a few times but since he ate nothing for the day so far, nothing came out. Frowning his blue-black brows and rubbing around the lips, Yoo Chun Young washed his mouth a few times. Still, the crappy feeling wouldn’t diminish.

He usually tried not to share the cup he used. Yoo Chun Young fetched a deep sigh while holding the sink with his two hands.

A sophomore who was brushing his teeth beside him stepped aside in surprise. Regardless of that, Yoo Chun Young swept his hair back with his wet hands and heaved another sigh.

‘My first… kiss…’ From watching many movies and TV dramas, he knew that what he did with Yi Ruda was not even a kiss; however, Yoo Chun Young wanted to smash his head when he recalled the three words ‘my first kiss’. If the bathroom wall wasn’t dirty, he would have definitely attempted to do so.

He rubbed his face with his water dripping hands then checked his reflection in the mirror to see how he looked. At that moment, someone came into the bathroom. A unique and confident stride, slender figure, and distinctively bright blond hair; it was Yi Ruda.

Regardless of Yoo Chun Young grimacing his face or Yi Ruda himself yelling fiercely at him earlier, he didn’t seem to care about Yoo Chun Young that much.

He lifted his blue eyes under his golden lashes and glanced upon Yoo Chun Young then he moved toward the sink. When he turned the faucet all the way to the end, the water gushed out. He then washed his lips like crazy.

Being flummoxed, Yoo Chun Young looked at Yi Ruda, who washed his mouth five times. He then lifted his head in a flash and stared at Yoo Chun Young while directing the entirety of his face at him.

Yi Ruda’s face shone brightly under the pouring sunlight through the narrow window.

His crescent moon-like brows, straight nose, and red lips looked soft and weak at a glance; however, when looking at his confident blue eyes, no one could dare say that he had a tender and frail appearance. As Yoo Chun Young had those thoughts in mind, he opened his mouth.

“What?”

He was observing Yi Ruda, but it was also unpleasant for him to be observed by Yi Ruda at the same time. Of course, it was not the first time for others to look at him that way; however, Yi Ruda’s gaze on him felt even more obnoxious.

Soon after, Yi Ruda put a twisted smile on his face. When he burst out something like a sneer, Yoo Chun Young became more annoyed.

“I asked, why are you looking at me,” he asked.

“You look handsome.”

A pretty looking bastard saying such a thing with a smile made it hard for Yoo Chun Young to figure out whether it was a touch of sarcasm or a compliment.

While Yoo Chun Young was at a loss of words, Yi Ruda turned on the water to wash his mouth again. He then spoke like a murmur.

“Hmm… is that why Donnie acted like that?”

“What?” Yoo Chun Young reacted instinctively but soon blenched at his aggressiveness. Still, Yi Ruda had seemingly offended him, and the fact that he called Ham Donnie without her last name annoyed Yoo Chun Young.

Besides, he seemed to grab Donnie’s hand recklessly. What surprised Yoo Chun Young, even more, was that Ham Donnie didn’t refuse Yi Ruda’s hands and accepted them like nothing special. Ham Donnie used to get startled when Yoo Chun Young stretched out his hand to her. However, how could she become so close with this bastard within a month?

Their three years of friendship seemed to be caught up in a flash. It was truly unpalatable.

As Yoo Chun Young kept his gaze at Yi Ruda, he wiped out his wet chin relaxedly and raised his head. When their eyes met, Yi Ruda spoke with a smile. It was still hard to distinguish what he meant with his tone.

“Hmm… don’t you get it?”

“What? What do you want to say?”

“Come on, I got aware of it within a month, but how could you guys not notice it? I mean, for real? Are you all entirely senseless?”

“Be straightforward. I asked, what are you trying to say?” Turning into a bad temper, Yoo Chun Young raised his voice.

The only thing he could think of was Ham Donnie’s disappearance, which happened a year ago. Yi Ruda wouldn’t know such a thing like that already. Then, what was he trying to talk about?
