Daisy Flower In Winter
Chapter 45's

Hyun-ri is stunned by Gun-yo's call, as for the first time Gun-yo calls her a little sister.

"Sister? Whatdoes thatmean? Who the hell is he?" inner Hyun-ri wonders and still tries to digest well Gun-yo's call intent.

"Why are you looking at me like that, Hyun-ria? Are you wondering why I called you my little sister?" gun-yo asks when she sees Hyun-ri's gaze filled with question marks.

Gun-yo walks over to Hyun-ri and crouches down in front of Hyun-ri to align herself with Hyun-ri sitting tied to a wooden chair.

"Why did you forget this Hyon oppa of yours, little brother? Don't you miss this Hyon oppa of yours, hm?" gun-yo asks slowly while stroking Hyun-ri's left cheek gently.

"Hyon oppa? What's that supposed?" inner Hyun-ri is still wondering and getting confused not understanding.

"From your gaze, you completely forgot about me. Though I told you who I am." Gun-yo said with a small laugh, "Alright, I understand that. Because we split up when you were 4. So then.. It's only natural that you forget me."

Gun-yo smiles handsomely in front of Hyun-ri, then stands straight and strokes Hyun-ri's head.

"I'll be gone for a minute. There is someone I want to introduce you to." Gun-yo said flatly and immediately left the room.

Gun-yo leaves Hyun-ri with 2 sturdy men who guard the door and stares flat at Hyun-ri.

"What does that mean? Who is Gun-yo oppa really? Hyon? Who her? I really don't know who Hyon is." Hyun-ri's inner,

"Appa, eomma, Seok Gwan oppa, Hwan-ki oppa, Seo Yoon oppa, please... Please save me."

Hyun-ri's body shakes because of her stuffing. He cried and asked for help in his mind. It's not like this is the plan that Hyun-ri put together, he's really off guard until he can end up horribly like this.

"Where am I now? Am I at Gun-yo oppa's apartment? Why did I fall asleep earlier? Why me.. Wait, what don't-don't.." Inner Hyun-ri wonders and remembers something before ending up in that place.

Gun-yo and Hyun-ri are now in the car for the journey to the place where Gun-yo is referring to. The place where Gun-yo calms himself down when he has a problem.

"Hyun-ria?" call Gun-yo after turning her head for a while towards Hyun-ri.

"Hm, why oppa?" ask Hyun-ri,

"Why were you silent and daydreaming? Did anything disturb your mind?"

"Hm, not oppa. I'm just thinking a little about work."

"Why? Is there a problem?"

"Hm, but it's not a big deal oppa." Hyun-ri replied lying. Hyun-ri is still thinking about Hwan-ki's sudden confession.

"Here drink. After that you can relax or take a nap, our trip is a little bit far" Gun-yo said as he offered a drink to Hyun-ri, "I bought it before I picked you up. There's a snack in the back seat too, you can eat it during the ride."

"Thank you oppa."

Hyun-ri receives the drink and gulps it a few times. However, a few minutes later, Hyun-ri feels her head dizzy and drowsiness begin to overwhelm Hyun-ri. He continues to fight his sleepiness though Hyun-ri's vision slowly starts to fade and soon, he falls asleep.

Hyun-ri closes her eyes for a moment. He doesn't believe what Gun-yo did to him.

"He mixed something into that drink. You're so stupid Hyun-ria.. Why don't you be careful." Hyun-ri lamented inwardly.

*****

Han Mansion...

Hwan-ki clutches back both of Aeri's shoulders and squeezes her into the car.

Pufts..

"Hahahaha, I'm not bragging my dear Hwan-ki. I'm telling the truth." said Aeri with a smile.

"Tell me. Now!!" hwan-ki begins to lose his temper.

"Sstt, don't yell at me like that. I don't like being yelled at."

Aeri smiles pretty and releases the grip of Hwan-ki's hand from her shoulder. He tidied up Hwan-ki's shirt, flicking his hands as if there was dust stuck to Hwan-ki's shirt.

"I'll tell you, but there's a condition" said Aeri, staring into both of Hwan-ki's sharp beads.

"It's time I took advantage of this situation. Eventually, I will get what I want by utilizing Gun-yo's already poor plan." inner Aeri with a wide smile.

"What do you want? Say it." answered flatly Hwan-ki.

"Married to me."

"Haha.."

Hwan-ki chuckles at Aeri's terms. However, within seconds he stopped his laughter and turned his face cold.

Taps..

Hwan-ki takes one step closer to Aeri, he slightly lowered his head to align his face with Aeri. Their distance was so close that it made a red hue on Aeri's cheeks and her heart beat abnormally as it saw Hwan-ki's handsome face that was so close to her.

"I rejected you first to be your lover. And.. Now you want me to be your husband? Don't expect me to accept your terms. Because I don't like sneaky women like you." said Hwan-ki.

Aeri clenched both her hands tightly. He is very angry with Hwan-ki, even Hwan-ki reminds him of the rejection he received first.

Hwan-ki and Aeri are faculty friends and one classmate. Aeri has loved Hwan-ki since they were in college. Aeri continues to approach Hwan-ki despite the cold attitude she receives. Until one day when they are in their final semester, Aeri expresses her feelings for Hwan-ki. However, Hwan-ki rejects him coldly on the grounds that he already loves another woman.

Aeri is heartbroken by Hwan-ki's rejection, but is determined to become Lee's mistress, Lee Hwan-ki's wife. Son of a wealthy family and heir to the Lee family.

"You're rejecting me again? Alright. Better now you prepare a funeral for your best friend" said Aeri.

Hwan-ki smiles wryly at the speech from Aeri. Then Hwan-ki rewinds himself two steps ahead of Aeri.

"It seems like there's no other choice. All right, I'm going to destroy your current career." said Hwan-ki flatly,

"What do you mean?" asked Aeri slightly raising her voice.

"Do you think I don't know about you? Where would you be your agent's CEO's mistress for your current modeling career. You really are a cunning woman and a crazy treasure, Kim Aeri."

"Shut up! Everything you say is not true." elak Aeri with her sharp gaze.

Hwan-ki also reached into his pants pocket and pulled out his phone. He opened his phone and played a video containing des*h*n and er*ng*n.

Aeri rounded her eyes surprised to see her hot video with her agensin CEO, who was pitting love in a hotel room.

"You still don't admit it? And if you don't want to tell me where Gun-yo is, then I'm going to send this video to the CEO's wife of your agency." said Hwan-ki flatly saving his phone back, "And boom, your career will be ruined or even you will be finished off by the CEO's wife of the agency." continued Hwan-ki smiled slanted.

"You picked the wrong toy, Kim Aeri. If you deal with me or the Han family, then your career will be over."

"Busan." replied Aeri with a lowered head inside. "He leads Hyun-ri to Busan, the forest house. That's all Gun-yo says." explains Aeri.
