Guide Me If You Dare-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. frёewebnoѵēl.com

"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?"

"Noh Yuno, you’re my Exclusive Guide."

"Yes, but being your Exclusive Guide doesn’t mean I can’t guide other Espers— especially during an emergency. It’s already established that the term ’exclusive’ works differently among Espers and Guides, right?"

An Esper couldn’t monopolize a Guide, after all.

Because there are more Espers than Guides in this country.

"You still should have told me, Noh Yuno," Ki Gayoon said sternly, his jaw clenched and his eyes glued to the road while driving. The Esper looked really pissed. "You know you should be careful of the Espers under Bambi’s control, don’t you?"

"Sarang Noona is harmless, Hyung."

"Tsk. You’ve gotten closer to her while I wasn’t looking, huh?"

"Hyung, are you jealous? For real?"

"Next time, tell me before you guide other Espers."

"I don’t need Hyung’s permission to guide other Espers," Yuno said sternly. "It’s up to my discretion whether to guide other Espers, especially in an emergency. I can’t ignore them just because it would make you jealous."

"Don’t you think you’re being too much? I’m your boyfriend."

Ah, I think I get what’s happening.

"Alright, Hyung. I’m sorry for not telling you that I gave Sarang Noona some light Guiding. Next time, I’ll remember to inform you if I lend my guiding power to other Espers," Yuno said, trying to stay as calm as possible. "I don’t need your permission, but you have the right to know whom I share my Guiding ability with since you’re my main Esper. We need transparency in our professional relationship, after all."

Ki Gayoon was Yuno’s main Esper, so Ki Gayoon should be his top priority.

"If I have to choose between Gayoon Hyung and hundreds of Espers in case of an emergency, I’d choose you, Hyung."

Yuno thought he explained it well, but Ki Gayoon remained frowning.

Aigoo.

"And you don’t have to worry, Gayoon Hyung," Yuno said. What he was about to say was embarrassing, but he set aside his pride. "I won’t develop feelings for other Espers I guide. That’s not how I ended up liking you anyway."

Ki Gayoon didn’t say anything, but his face looked brighter now than it did earlier.

Okay, just a little bit of push.

"Hyung is the only one who gets my adrenaline going," Yuno said. At this point, he was already blushing. So, he was glad that Ki Gayoon’s eyes were glued to the road. "I don’t react to most things, but Hyung makes it easy for me to get mad. So, even if I don’t like wasting my energy on getting angry, I can’t help it when it comes to you."

"Yah," Ki Gayoon complained. "I thought you were trying to appease me? Why are you suddenly insulting me, huh?"

"Because I realized I shouldn’t be appeasing a grown man like Hyung when I’ve already apologized for my small mistake," Yuno said, now slightly annoyed. "Hyung, seriously. If you annoy me again, I’ll curse your ’Ki Gayoon Junior.’"

"What?"

"I won’t wish for your hairline to recede when I’m pissed, but I’ll wish for your monster cock to shrink every time you annoy me."

Gayoon turned to him when they got stuck in a traffic jam, and then he raised an eyebrow at him. "I’d be pissed if my "junior" shrinks. But won’t that make you upset, too? You love my big cock, don’t you?"

AHEM.

Yuno couldn’t deny it, but he still lied. "Hyung, technique matters more to me than the size of your dick."

"Are you saying that my cock is only big but I lack in the technique department?"

"I didn’t say that, Hyung."

"Haaah. I can’t believe you’re still questioning my technique at this point," Ki Gayoon said. The Esper didn’t look pissed, though. In fact, he looked and sounded more energetic now. "Noh Yuno, you better file for a leave now. I’ll take your ability to walk for a week."

Pfft.

Was that supposed to be a threat?

That sounds exciting.

Yuno couldn’t help but smile while shaking his head at the silliness of their conversation. "Hyung, you’re not upset anymore?’

"I’m sorry for being a jealous jerk, Yuno-ya."

Aww.

Ki Gayoon’s apology was clearly sincere.

My boyfriend is becoming more human day by day.

"I kinda know what I signed up for when I agreed to date you, Hyung. Let’s just say this is the consequence of dating a handsome lunatic with a sprinkle of yandere-ism."

"Huh?"

"I can fix you, Hyung," Yuno said while gently patting Ki Gayoon’s shoulder. "Just don’t cross the line."

"Alright," Ki Gayoon said, and then he put his hand on Yuno’s thigh while driving. "You’re not mad at me anymore?"

Hmm.

Yuno had always wondered why boyfriends would put their hands on their partners’ thighs when driving.

And now I’m experiencing it first-hand.

Looking at Ki Gayoon, it seemed like it was something that the Esper did without much thought? Like it was the most natural thing in the world?

It feels nice.

"Yuno-ya?" Ki Gayoon asked, gently squeezing Yuno’s thigh. "Still mad?"

"Not anymore," Yuno said, focusing on his donuts again while letting Ki Gayoon do that "boyfriend thing"— holding his thigh while driving. "Hyung, it’s not fair to use your sexiness to distract me when we’re fighting."

And Ki Gayoon just burst out laughing.
