The Shameful and Humiliating Humiliation of the Haughty Queen Iljin. 41

Chapter 41 – Episode 41 Counterattack (1)

Dawn, Sky Sea Pension Accommodation

“Ugh… I’m sorry… Ugh.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay. It’s okay…”

Yeji hugged Ah-yeon, who was crying sadly, and comforted her by repeatedly telling her that she was okay. Although it was Yeji who was really treated badly, Zinc cried even more bitterly and apologized to Yeji.

Hehe, because of me, Yeji… I’m really sorry. Hehe.”

“I’m really fine. And it’s not because of Zinc.”

Looking at A-yeon crying, Ye-ji remembered herself when she first gave in to Hye-hyeon. Because she was humiliated for the first time in her life, she cried until late that night. Perhaps he had already gotten used to her humiliation, but Yeji felt calmer than he expected.

In fact, Yeji’s head was full of what happened today. It is not her intention to somehow find out and get revenge by destroying the video taken of her weakness. Yeongseo’s last words continued to linger in her head.

– I can’t spread the word like I promised, but there should be at least one trophy, right? It’s also troublesome for her to make a fuss about getting revenge later.

‘It’s a promise…’

Relationship between yourself and zinc.

A promise to tolerate public embarrassment.

A person related to both came to mind.

‘Cheon Hye-hyeon…’

How could she know her travel plans and even her location?

‘Eavesdropping…?’

She couldn’t even imagine installing a camera, but she thought that Yeji, who was close to the answer, couldn’t continue like this.

So far, Hye-hyeon seems to be keeping her promise and she has been humiliated by doing as she is told, but when A-yeon or someone else gets involved, like today, it is a different story. If it weren’t for what happened between him and Hye-hyeon today, Young-seo wouldn’t have been able to come and her trip would have ended without incident.

Although it was a little early for her, she decided to carry out a plan she had been thinking about for some time. In order to do that, I needed someone’s help, and at the moment, the only person I could trust was Zinc.

After a while, when A-yeon calmed down, Ye-ji spoke up to confess her organized thoughts.

“Zinc.”

Zinc looked at Yeji’s face with her swollen eyes without answering.

“Let me apologize first… Today’s incident happened entirely because of me.”

“No, Yeji was trying to save me at that time. What happened after that was something I didn’t know would turn out like this.”

“That’s not true. In fact, I was caught by Hye-hyeon and was humiliated in various ways, so I couldn’t resist… I don’t know how she found out today, but I think Young-seo came to visit after hearing about our trip from Hye-hyeon.”

“…”

Yeji took a moment to catch her breath and then continued.

“Today wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t been swayed by Hye-hyeon. It’s all… My fault. I’m sorry, A-yeon…”

Seeing Zinc not reacting, Yeji swallowed her regret and made a bitter expression.

‘You must be angry…They did that because of me.’

Warlock

Just as Zinc was about to give up on answering, Zinc, who had been looking at Yeji in silence, suddenly hugged Yeji.

“I… Knew.”

“Uh…What?!”

“I said I had something to tell you while we were walking earlier… I was going to say that. She was going to wait for Yeji to say it first, but she seemed to be having a hard time these days… “

On the day Yeji and Hyehyeon went shopping for underwear, Yeon was actually following them and watching them do all their shopping.

The first time he noticed something strange about her was when he first asked her to go on a trip and she refused, saying she had a prior engagement with Hye-hyeon. Normally, she would have kicked Hye-hyeon away, even if she had a prior engagement, but Ye-ji, who chose Hye-hyeon over her, seemed strange to her, so she followed him from the beginning.

At first, she felt embarrassed that Yeji was being humiliated like that, so she tried to come forward right away, but Ah-yeon, thinking that there was something going on, stayed behind and watched the two of them shopping until the end.

“I see… Then you must have seen my embarrassing side. Haha, it’s embarrassing.”

“I didn’t see what happened inside the store. I could have been caught. But the makeup was a little shocking, hehe.”

In response to Yeji’s listless laughter, Zinc deliberately joked to brighten her mood.

“It was a bit like that, right? It was the worst makeup at the time. Ah, even now that I think about it, it was the worst makeup ever.”

“Yeah. And… You’re in the school photo, right? No matter how much I edit it, there’s no way I won’t recognize your body…”

When the topic of her revealing photos of her at school came up, Yeji lowered her head, her face turning red in shame.

Come to think of it, even when the revealing photo was released, Zinc had a dark expression on her face without saying anything.

“Thank you for telling me now, Yeji. But what kind of weakness did you discover…”

The most difficult moment for Yeji to speak has come. The reason why she had to worry so much before telling Ah-yeon about her work was because she was afraid of revealing that she was related to Ah-yeon. She knew that this was a relationship that had to end someday, but her heart wasn’t ready yet.

If she told me about the relationship between the two, something would change somehow, she thought. She wanted to maintain this relationship at least until she graduated from special school.

It was difficult for her to bear the thought of being so close to Ah-yeon and their relationship becoming estranged.

“Actually, Ah-yeon… You and I are related. I didn’t know from the beginning, but I couldn’t bring myself to tell you. I was afraid that if I did, our relationship would grow apart.. . I’m so ugly, right?”

Even as she spoke, Yeji confessed with her head down because she could not bear to see directly what her zinc reaction would be.

Zinc’s reaction upon hearing Yeji’s confession was not one of criticism, surprise, or rebuke. Zinc held Yeji’s hands tightly and said,

“I… I already knew, Yeji. I’m sorry I couldn’t tell you sooner.”

“Hmm… What, what?!”

At Zinc’s completely unexpected answer, Yeji looked at Zinc with her shocked face.

“Uh, when? I found out about it from Hyehyun…”

“Uh… Have you ever told me about your parents before? When I asked you why you live alone.”

“Yes. Ah, then… !”

Yeji’s eyes widened as if she noticed something.

“That’s right, honestly, how could you not know that there is a CEO of such a large company in the family?”

Unlike Yeji, Zinc remembered accurately. The conversation between the two was also included in the volleyball team video that Hye-hyeon received from her Eun-seo.

At the time, Zinc’s complexion in the video darkened after hearing Yeji’s words, but Yeji did not notice the change. She didn’t even notice Hye-hyeon, who had seen the video, but she later got confirmation from her father, Cheon Seong-gi.

“Ayeon, you are…”

For a moment, I was so overcome with emotion that I couldn’t speak. She felt so stupid that she had only ever been afraid of Zinc’s reaction when the truth came out. On the contrary, even though she knew that fact, she kept her feelings for herself firm.

“So you were being threatened about it? About our relationship?”

“Yes. I happened to take a picture of us in the volleyball club, and I guess Hye-hyeon’s uncle also knew you.”

“Ha…What a trashy bitch.”

Yeji was just grateful that Zinc was expressing her anger instead of her.

“I think I just need to delete those videos and photos.”

“Of course I have to erase it! Are you making a mean threat with something like that?”

“So, Zinc needs your help.”

“My help? Just tell me anything. Of course, I can help you with anything.”

Without even thinking about Yeji, she felt more reassured than ever by Zinc expressing her willingness to help her.

“But, do you have any plans?”

“Yes. I’ve been thinking about doing it someday, but I think it will be easier because I have A-yeon.”

If there is a problem, the simplest and best solution is to solve the cause.

It was like a gamble, but no matter how many times I thought about it, I had no choice but to delete the videos and photos on Hyehyun’s phone. If there is no physical evidence, Hye-hyeon will give up on her own.

“Of course it would be best to erase it … But wouldn’t that be too dangerous? We need to solve at least two problems: secretly stealing that bitch’s phone and unlocking her phone. Both are impossible, Yeji.”

As Zinc said, in this day and age where cell phones are always with us, it is almost impossible to secretly steal them. And most of the time, unlocking the screen is done with biometric fingerprint, and unfortunately, Hye-hyeon was also unlocking the screen with biometric fingerprint.

“Wouldn’t it be better to take it by force and destroy it or burn it?”

Yeji responded to Zinc’s concerns by shaking her head.

“No, there are three obstacles to overcome. And it is too dangerous to take it by force. It is directly related to the third obstacle.”

“Then what should I do? Give me some sleeping pills?”

“That’s also impossible. It’s not easy to get sleeping pills without a prescription, and even if you give them, it’s hard to control the amount or decide the time and place.”

“Then there’s no way?”

In fact, as she continued to worry, she made a plan, but there were still some things she couldn’t solve. But coincidentally, with Zinc helping her, she was able to solve that part naturally.

A part of me was anxious about bringing Zinc in again, but now that it was like this, I had no choice but to make a more thorough plan. I also felt that it would be better to have a blank sheet of paper together, and that if two people make a plan, unexpected variables and loopholes can be reduced.

Yeji began to explain her plan to Yeon.

“Ayeon, you have to listen carefully.”
