My Younger Sister Is a Genius Chapter 222

EP31 – In the past, present, or future (3)

The ordered food was served and Yoon Ha-jun and Jin So-hyang began to eat quietly.

Jin So-hyang and Yoon Ha-jun said nothing to each other while the sound of rain was heard and the music was playing softly.

But there is something very awkward about that silence. Until now, I’ve rarely felt this awkward silence when the two of us were together.

“The food is delicious.”

Perhaps uncomfortable with the awkward silence, Hajun Yoon spoke in an uncharacteristically bright voice.

Jin So-hyang silently nodded at those words.

It’s not that it’s not, the food itself was very good. The decoration is unique to the restaurant concept and the food tastes good, so the tension should rise, but the tension doesn’t rise at all.

-Do you think it has another meaning?

What Jin So-hyang said keeps coming back to me in my head.

Different meaning. What did that mean?

In fact, Ha-Jun Yoon thought of various meanings for a topic he already knew.

Ha-Jun Yoon glanced at Jin So-Hyang cautiously. Jin So-hyang’s face, seen under the blue lighting, was stained red, contrary to the lighting.

Perhaps he was quite embarrassed even after saying it.

And the same goes for Hajun Yoon.

He knew that Jin So-hyang and Han Go-yo liked him, but accepting those feelings directly was another story.

Should I say that I feel guilty when I see him expressing his affection towards me so directly?

I said I would no longer avoid it but accept it, but it wasn’t easy.

Actually, I don’t even know how to accept it.

Giving and receiving affection are very unfamiliar stories to Ha-jun Yoon.

I always thought I would receive something, and I thought it was natural.

The first time he realized that it was affection was after his mother and Suyeon, who had given him the only affection, left him.

After that, I have never given or received any affection.

That’s why it’s unfamiliar and you don’t know what to do.

Meanwhile, Jin So-hyang blinked as she saw Yoon Ha-jun like that.

Isn’t it a bit different from usual?

If you ask what’s different about this specifically, it’s hard to pinpoint what’s different about it, but something is different from usual.

He keeps avoiding my gaze. Could it be that he has fallen in love with me?

Jin So-hyang wondered if she had made a mistake with Yoon Ha-jun, but she had no specific memory of it.

‘That doesn’t mean Hajun is embarrassed?’

A thought I’ve never had before. I think Hajun Yoon is self-conscious and embarrassed.

Jin So-hyang, who thought of that for the first time, opened her eyes wide and looked at Yoon Ha-jun.

And every time, Ha-Jun Yoon lowered his face, avoiding Jin So-Hyang’s gaze.

A look that Jin So-hyang has never seen before while looking at Yoon Ha-jun.

Jin So-hyang blinked at that sight instead of liking it.

No, of course it’s good that the person you like is conscious of yourself, but I didn’t understand why he suddenly became conscious of himself.

‘Did I do anything that Ha-jun would be conscious of?’

But no matter how much I thought about it, I didn’t do that. He just expressed his feelings to him as usual.

So, has something changed in his mind?

Jin So-hyang was wondering what on earth had changed in him, but no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t find the reason.

“Mr. Hajun.”

“huh?”

“By any chance, did something happen?”

Therefore, Jin So-hyang decided to ask him directly. In the first place, it is not Jin So-hyang’s style to worry about something alone and make a mistake by coming to a strange conclusion alone.

It’s her style to ask questions directly when she’s thinking about something like that.

In response to Jin So-hyang’s question, Ha-jun Yoon finally looked at her face and asked.

“What is going on? What happened?”

“No, I just think something about Hajun is different from usual.”

“okay?”

“yes.”

Yoon Ha-jun kept his mouth shut in response to Jin So-hyang’s firm answer.

‘Am I that different from usual?’

Well, if you think about it, it was harder to look at Jin So-hyang’s face than usual.

Ha-jun Yoon, who was worried about how to say this, whether to be honest or lie, eventually decided to be honest.

“I was wondering what to do.”

“What?”

“How should I repay the people who like me? Or, what choice should I make?”

Although he didn’t say it exactly, Jin So-hyang could tell what Ha-jun Yoon meant.

Now, Ha-jun Yoon is saying that he will respond to the feelings he has with Go-yo Han, and that he is thinking about it.

Jin So-hyang kept her mouth shut.

It wasn’t that surprising that Hajun Yoon knew how he felt. To this extent, he is so blatant that he gives affection, and anyone should know that he does.

If not, don’t you feel so sorry for Goyo Han and yourself?

However, being vaguely aware that you know something and hearing it directly feel very different.

Jin So-hyang’s face, whose fever had barely subsided, began to heat up again.

How should I answer this?

‘Please take care of me? No, this is a bit like that. So how can I know what you are thinking right now? I think this is a bit like that too.’

Jin So-hyang was wondering where her pride lies in love, but she still thought it was a bit wrong to ask so openly.

“I look forward to a good answer.”

In the end, this was the best Jin So-hyang could say.

* * *

“No, why are we all going separately?”

On the day of my trip, I look at Taeyoung Kim muttering in a voice full of dissatisfaction and shrug my shoulders.

“Well, what should I do? “Goyo says she has to go to court because of her mom’s problem.”

“Then what about Jin So-hyang?”

“I heard you’re coming with Goyo?”

“Okay, then what about your younger brother?”

“Suyeon also said she was coming with a group of women. “I heard you went to Goyo’s last night because you had something to talk about between the ladies?”

Taeyoung Kim let out a deep sigh at my words.

I blink at that sight. I never thought I would be so blatantly disappointed.

“Well, is there a girl you like?”

“huh?”

“No, is there a girl you like among those three? “Your reaction seems unusual.”

“What bullshit.”

Looking at Taeyoung Kim’s expression as if she were dumbfounded, I don’t think that’s the case.

Sigh, if I had said that I liked Sooyeon, I would have been genuinely tempted to get angry, but I’m glad that doesn’t seem to be the case.

“I just wanted to have something loud and fun today. “But then I have to go with you, the least interesting person.”

This is a bit difficult to refute.

“Why on earth do Jin So-hyang and Han Go-yo like you?”

“huh? “Who likes me?”

“Why are you pretending not to know? “You already know everything?”

While saying that, I looked at Kim Taeyoung, who was staring at me, and subtly averted my eyes.

Was it obvious like that? I tried to deceive you by saying that I was pretty good at deceiving you.

“So how did you seduce those two?”

“What are you flirting with?”

“So you two just liked you on their own even though you never seduced me?”

“It’s a bit hard to say it’s arbitrary, but it’s true that they like me. “To like someone is that person’s freedom.”

Taeyoung Kim pouted her lips at my words.

What, why is he like that? Is something happening? Unlike usual, you seem to be genuinely hurt.

“It’s nice to be able to say that.”

“what?”

“Someone can be hurt just by liking someone.”

Should I say it’s excellent?

Should I call it emotion?

Anyway, I look at Taeyoung Kim, who is drenched in something and muttering in a faint voice.

That way of speaking, that tone of voice, and those eyes.

And even what is said.

No way, that guy.

“Did you get dumped?”

Was it a car? To an older sister whose true identity is unknown? As soon as I finished speaking, Taeyoung Kim’s expression suddenly crumpled.

“Yes, it was a car. “Refreshing too.”

Then he said that in a very blunt voice.

Wow, I never thought I would get kicked right before the trip.

“I can’t believe a guy as big as you gets a car. “Who on earth did you get dumped by?”

In particular, I’m not saying this to comfort Taeyoung Kim, but I’m asking because I’m genuinely curious.

Who is Taeyoung Kim?

He will become a world star in the future and is an all-round entertainer with a lot of talent and wit.

Additionally, he has a unique face and is quite tall, although not as tall as me.

“No need to comfort me!”

“I didn’t mean to comfort you, I was just curious.”

Of course, all of that is in the future, but even now, Kim Tae-young is a popular singer.

Taeyoung Kim thought about my words for a while and then slowly opened her mouth.

“Senior.”

“senior?”

“Ugh, piano senior. He’s quite famous in this industry, and I learned from the same teacher. “He was the one who supported me even when I couldn’t play the piano.”

“Hmm, how old are you?”

“29 years old.”

“… … “29 years old?”

Instead of answering, Taeyoung Kim nodded.

Kim Tae-young is now 19 years old, so is that exactly a 10-year age difference?

That’s definitely worth it. As someone who is about to turn 30, with only a month left in my 20s, dating a minor seems a bit odd.

“I liked it since I was young. So, she has been confessing that she likes him since she was young, but he doesn’t really listen. So this time, I prepared properly and confessed, but he said that I only saw him as his younger brother.”

“Since when did you like me?”

“Were you in the first year of elementary school?”

“When did you start playing the piano?”

“I was five years old. “I started quite late.”

Did you start that late? The world of the piano is scary.

Anyway, it’s amazing that you’ve always liked that person from when you were young until now.

“Still, I wish he would have liked my confession, but that wasn’t the case. It was a bit difficult to see him make a troubled expression. Ah, sometimes I think that what I like might be hurtful to someone else.”

“cheer up.”

When I watch movies or dramas, I always wonder why they use lines like that, but the only thing they can really say is this.

The atmosphere in the car is somehow heavy.

What should I say in times like this? Well, you should have had a friend to know what to say in times like this.

Since I don’t have any friends and have no experience like this, I don’t know what to say.

“So make this trip fun.”

Taeyoung Kim seemed to dislike this atmosphere and spoke in a bright voice.

Oh my god, they gave me such a difficult mission.

I would have made a song like that if you made it really sad and made it cry, but I asked you to make it fun.

That’s harder than making one song in a week.

“I’ll do my best to play.”

“Okay, that’s enough. “I’ve prepared a lot of things for that.”

“What is this and that?”

Are you suddenly feeling uneasy about something? I don’t think they brought anything illegal or anything like that, but it feels like they brought all kinds of strange things.

“What, a simple board game? And a Bluetooth microphone and some drinks?”

“You didn’t bring alcohol, did you?”

“I didn’t bring any alcohol because I knew you would say that.”

Since you said it was a drink, I thought you brought some alcohol.

Still, it is acceptable for board games and Bluetooth microphones.

“Yes, that’s enough.”

I’m not confident that I’m good at board games, but I wanted to try it. Actually, I’ve never played a proper board game before.

Partly because I didn’t have time to sing, but also because I didn’t have people to play games with.

This board game is not something you can play alone.

There must be at least two people, and usually the more people there are, the more fun the game is, but there’s no way I could have people like that.

Somehow, the more I say something, the sadder I feel.

Is it because of Kim Tae-young who is having a hard time and feeling lonely right now?

“Anyway, cheer up.”

“Okay, thank you.”

After saying that to Taeyoung Kim once again, I took out my cell phone.

It wasn’t that I didn’t have anything to say with Taeyoung Kim, but it was because my cell phone was ringing.

When I checked my phone, I saw a call from none other than Suyeon.

There was a photo there, showing Yoon Soo-yeon and Jin So-hyang striking a very hip pose in front of the court, and Han Go-yo standing alone and smiling.

And a message written underneath it.

[End of complaint and report!]

I wonder if this is such a bright thing.

Well, it’s not a bad thing.

“Quiet, sue, and now we’re leaving.”

“How long does it take?”

“Well, wouldn’t it take them about 3 hours?”

“We’ve been here for about two hours, so that means we have to wait that long again?”

“yes.”

“Okay, then let’s start with something the two of us can play together. How about karaoke? The Bluetooth microphone I bought is pretty good, so the sound quality isn’t bad. Or a movie? I also brought a beam projector. It’s a short-throw beam projector that came out these days, and if you place it right below you, it projects the screen upwards, limiting the distance… … .”

It seems that Taeyoung Kim was really looking forward to this trip.

What do we do.

Should I escape from the car now?

My younger brother was a genius
