Guide Me If You Dare-Chapter 190: CROCODILE TEARS

OH, me and my sinful beauty.

Moon Noa couldn’t help but poke fun at himself because the situation was really outrageus.

By that, he meant being physically sandwiched between Haru and Ryu Sungbin.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t in an erotic way.

These two high-ranking Espers will kill each other the moment I leave the room.

"Haru-ssi, if you want to be a father to Noh Yuno, then go ahead and be one," Ryu Sungbin said coldly— his voice so cold that he wouldn’t be surprised if water suddenly turned into ice. "But you have no right to meddle with my relationship with Noa Hyung."

"What relationship are we talking about here, Sungbin-san?" Haru asked calmly, flashing the annoying smile that was obviously mocking Ryu Sungbin. "The relationship you had with No-san that you chose to throw away for Bambi-san?"

Haaah.

Haru obviously touched a nerve since Ryu Sungbin’s face suddenly turned murderous.

Dammit.

Moon Noa may be an S-Class Guide, but he still couldn’t withstand the thick bloodlust of two natural S-Class Espers on the verge of killing each other.

Hence, as a result, his knees collapsed.

He would have fallen on the floor had Haru not caught him.

Ryu Sungbin tried to catch Moon Noa, but Haru was faster since he used his teleportation skill to move closer to him using his inhuman speed.

"Noa-san, are you alright?"

Moon Noa wanted to show that he was upset, but he couldn’t help but lean against Haru’s solid body since his legs were still shaking a bit. "Do you think I’ll be alright if two natural S-Class Espers release their bloodlust at the same time?"

Haru and Ryu Sungbin both flinched.

Good— at least they feel bad.

Haru and Ryu Sungbin both controlled their bloodlust until the suffocating aura in the air had completely disappeared.

I can finally breathe again.

Moon Noa tried to stand up on his own, but Haru suddenly scooped him up.

Before he could even complain, Haru had already put him down on the sofa in the lounge area of his bedroom.

Our dethroned prince is really quick on his feet, huh?

And then Haru knelt in front of Moon Noa, looking up at him with the puppy dog eyes that he rarely used. "I’m sorry, Noa-san," he said, his soft voice full of remorse. He even put his hands on Moon Noa’s knees. But his touch was so light that Moon Noa barely felt it. "I can’t help but act childish when it comes to you."

Argh.

Moon Noa didn’t admit this, but he was actually quite weak against Haru’s puppy dog eyes. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

No, he was just probably weak to handsome faces.

I’m trash, huh?

"I heard you say Yoonyoon called you," Moon Noa said, sighing. "But how did you get in here easily?"

His entire mansion was secured.

Even if Haru was strong, he couldn’t have freely used his teleportation skill since there was a device there that would reduce an uninvited guest’s Mana.

Unless Haru wasn’t considered an uninvited guest, of course.

And there’s one person in charge of that part...

Haru smiled as if Moon Noa asked a silly question. "Noa-san, do you think Leehan-san would stop me?"

Right.

Moon Noa shouldn’t have asked.

Leehan didn’t come here even after he felt Ryu Sungbin and Haru’s bloodlust. He probably entrusted me to Haruharu already.

Moon Noa made a mental note to scold and punish Leehan later.

"Don’t scold or punish Leehan-san," Haru said as if he could read Moon Noa’s mind. "Leehan-san only did the right thing to protect you, Noa-san. You didn’t give him a proper explanation as to why you suddenly picked up trash and even brought it home."

Ryu Sungbin, who was obviously the victim of Haru’s verbal attack, let out a frustrated sigh. "If you have something to say to me, why not say it in my face?" Ryu Sungbin, standing behind Haru, even crossed his arms over his chest. "Why do I have to catch strays, huh?"

"Right," Haru said, and then he looked over his shoulder to give Ryu Sungbin a sharp look. "You’re trash, Sungbin-san. Only trash like you would come back here after throwing away Noa-san for another Guide— for another man. And it’s obvious that you’re only back because you need something from Noa-san."

Ouch.

It was Moon Noa’s turn to "catch strays."

I know that Binbin is only here because he needs something from me, and yet I’m still allowing him to use me again.

Now Moon Noa was sure that Yuno would be so disappointed in him.

"What does it have to do with you, Haru-ssi?" Ryu Sungbin asked, neither confirming nor denying Haru’s accusations. "Who are you in Noa Hyung’s life anyway? Aren’t you just a suitor who doesn’t know how to take a ’no’ for an answer?"

This time, it was Ryu Sungbin’s turn to touch a nerve.

But instead of getting angry, Haru actually made a sad face.

Oh?

Then, much to Moon Noa’s shock and horror, tears started rolling down Haru’s face.

Is he crying?!

For real?

Even Ryu Sungbin looked shocked when Haru started sobbing.

Oh, he’s really crying.

Moon Noa immediately cupped Haru’s face between his hands, and he panicked when he realized that his eyes had turned into waterfalls. "Haruharu, what’s wrong?" he asked while quickly wiping the tears from Haru’s face. But it was no use since his tears wouldn’t stop falling. "Why are you crying?"

Why is a grown man— a respected natural S-Class Esper, at that— crying like a child?!

"Because the truth hurts," Haru confessed between sobs. "Sungbin-san was right. I’m just a suitor who doesn’t know how to take a ’no’ for an answer. Even now, I’m doing something that you don’t like, Noa-san. I know I’m being pushy, and Yuno-kun once told me that pushy men are not attractive."

Aigoo.

Yuyu and his hatred for "red flags."

"However, what can I do?" Haru continued in a cracked voice. "Whether I do what you want or do what you hate, you still don’t love me romantically, Noa-san. So, I decided to do what you hate as long as I keep you safe from Sungbin-san."

"Can you please not talk as if I’m not here?" Ryu Sungbin complained. "And why are you treating me like a villain?"

"Am I supposed to treat you like a hero after what you did to Noa-san?"

Ryu Sungbin opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out.

Haaah.

Moon Noa was aware that he needed to talk to Ryu Sungbin since they made a deal.

However...

I can’t leave Haruharu alone when he’s hurting like this.

"Binbin, please leave us alone in the meantime," Moon Noa said, and then he knelt next to Haru and gathered him in his arms. "I’ll just help Haru calm down first."

Ryu Sungbin looked at Moon Noa in disbelief. "Are you seriously falling for that brat’s trick, Hyung? He’s obviously crying to gain your sympathy."

"I’m not like you, Sungbin-san."

Ryu Sungbin looked like he was about to complain, so Moon Noa interrupted him.

"Binbin, please."

Ryu Sungbin let out a frustrated sigh before bolting out of the room.

The Esper even slammed the door hard.

Aigoo.

Moon Noa just sighed, and then he gently rubbed Haru’s back. "You can stop acting now, Haruharu."

***

["JUST CRY if you want to distract Sajangnim, Haru-nim— my boss is weak to crying, beautiful men."]

That was one of the pieces of advice Haru got from Yuno.

Hence, he joined an acting workshop just to teach himself how to cry on the spot.

And, today, he finally put his acting skills to good use.

However...

"You can stop acting now, Haruharu."

Yes, Haru was caught almost immediately.

"I know you’re only acting," Moon Noa said, then he grabbed Haru by the shoulders and pushed him gently. "Did Yuyu tell you one of my weaknesses?"

Haru kept his mouth shut because he wasn’t a snitch.

"So, it was Yuyu."

"If you know I’m just acting, why did you pretend to fall for my tricks?" Haru asked, changing the topic. "Noa-san, is it because you have a soft spot for me?"

"Why are you complaining when you got what you wanted anyway? I already kicked Binbin out."

"So, you really do have a soft spot for me."

"I like crying beautiful men," Moon Noa insisted. "So, even if I knew you were just acting, I still couldn’t help but worry for you for real."

"Well, I really wanted to cry after I heard you took Ryu Sungbin home, Noa-san."

"It’s none of your business, Haruharu."

"Japan might end up attacking South Korea soon."

Moon Noa almost choked on his saliva. "Why is your country picking a fight with my country again?"

"You should blame Bambi-san and Sungbin-san for that," Haru said in a serious tone. "Noa-san, we discovered an illegal laboratory in Osaka— and they have something to do with the National Guide Bureau."

"What are you talking about?"

"It was a piece of information that Mo Hanjin shared while he was in our custody."

"Guide Mo Hanjin opened his mouth?"

"That, he did. Unprovoked," Haru said in a serious tone. "When I went to the place that he told me about, that was when I verified that the information he shared was true."

Moon Noa covered his mouth with a hand. "That’s big news, Haruharu."

***

"NOH YUNO, how long are you going to hold that kid’s hand?"

Aigoo.

This is no time to be jealous.

Yuno ignored Ki Gayoon’s complaint— his attention focused on Kwon Hojun’s hand, which was holding his hand tightly.

He could feel it.

"Esper Matthew-ssi’s Core," Yuno said, clutching his chest with his free hand. "It’s trying to find a new host."

Kwon Hojun pointed at himself after Yuno gave him a meaningful look. "And that would be me?"
