Chapter 20 - 20

After the university day ended, Jay and Max both returned home. Each of them started asking the other questions.

Max:

"Let me ask you something... was Shion acting strange with you today?"

Jay:

"A little... why?"

Max:

"The strange thing is that Shiyoung invited me to the Lila Restaurant."

Jay said in surprise:

"Me too! Shion invited me to Lila Restaurant as well!"

Max:

"That's really strange..."

Then a moment of realization hit him.

Max:

"Maybe they were trying to trick us."

Jay:

"It looks like they were planning to trap us for revenge."

Max said worriedly:

"So what should we do?"

Jay:

"I have an idea. I'll ask Shion to change the restaurant, and you ask Shiyoung to change it too.

We'll go to Seoul Moon Restaurant, and you suggest Spicy Panda to Shiyoung."

Max smiled:

"That's a great idea!"

Jay called Shion.

Jay:

"Shion, what do you think about changing the restaurant we're going to tonight to Seoul Moon Restaurant?"

Shion said in confusion:

"But you know we love Red Dragon Restaurant. Why Seoul Moon?"

Jay:

"They say the food there is really delicious."

Shion said with disappointment:

"Alright..."

On the other side, Max called Shiyoung.

Max:

"Shiyoung, I don't want to go to Red Dragon Restaurant. I'd rather go to Spicy Panda."

Shiyoung asked in surprise:

"Why?"

Max:

"I like Spicy Panda more. What do you think?"

Shiyoung said angrily:

"Fine, Max. Whatever you want."

He hung up, then immediately called Shion.

Shiyoung:

"Shion, the plan failed. What should we do?"

Shion:

"I know... but I have a better plan."

Shiyoung:

"What is it?"

Shion:

"Do you have Max's home address?"

Shiyoung:

"Yes, I do."

Shion:

"Let's go there. From there, he'll lead us to Jay's house."

Shiyoung:

"And what are we going to do?"

Shion:

"The two of them are clearly allied now, and they're probably at home together. If we suddenly show up and walk in on them, we'll expose them."

Shiyoung:

"Alright, let's go quickly."

On the way, Shion said:

Shion:

"When we arrive at Max's apartment door, I want you to call him and say you're coming over."

Shiyoung:

"Okay."

When they reached Max's apartment door, Shiyoung called him.

Shiyoung:

"Max, I'm coming to see you right now."

Max:

"What? No! I'm coming to you!"

Max opened the door... and Jay was standing behind him.

Shion said firmly:

"I knew it!"

Shiyoung grabbed Max by the collar and said:

Shiyoung:

"Did you really think you could escape from me, Max?"

Then he punched him hard while shouting:

Shiyoung:

"Why, Max?! Why?!

This is for always putting me in embarrassing situations... and this is my revenge!"

Meanwhile, Shion walked toward Jay and said coldly:

Shion:

"I will never forgive you. And don't sit next to me again after what you did."

Then Shiyoung and Shion left together.

On the way, Shiyoung asked:

Shiyoung:

"How did you know they were together at home?"

Shion:

"You're slow to understand! They were clearly planning how to trap us again. Don't you get it?"

Shiyoung replied in annoyance:

Shiyoung:

"I told you a million times—I'm not slow to understand! And second, I was just asking a question."

Finally, everyone returned to their own homes.

At Max and Jay's house:

Max:

"How did they know we were together? But at least they still don't know we're siblings."

Jay said worriedly:

Jay:

"Max, you're covered in wounds!"

Max smiled despite the pain:

Max:

"At least we really had fun."

Jay:

"Yes... we did."
