The Hero is Hunting me!-Chapter 61: Dresses, Smiles, and Hidden Tensions

So-ah was busy browsing through several outfits.

Behind her, Min-seo was holding a few pretty dresses in her arms, her eyes sparkling brightly as she kept looking at them.

"Woho!!"

Elvera glanced at So-ah, who still looked a little nervous and unsure.

"So-ah, you should just pick the clothes you like and try them on," Elvera said gently.

So-ah turned to look at her.

With a timid expression, she replied,

"U-uhm... is it really okay for me to do that?"

Elvera smiled sweetly.

"Of course, sweetheart~"

"Well... okay then!"

With that, So-ah finally began to relax and wandered around, carefully looking at the clothes she liked.

Elvera watched her with a warm smile, feeling relieved that So-ah was finally enjoying herself.

Her own eyes soon shifted to the dresses displayed nearby.

She stopped in front of a red dress and gently touched the fabric.

"Oh~ this material feels really nice..."

Without hesitation, Elvera picked it up, planning to try it later after checking a few more outfits.

After some time passed...

Inside the fitting room.

So-ah slowly opened the curtain.

She revealed herself wearing a beautiful outfit.

The top part of the dress exposed a little of her chest, a signature style of the design.

The color was dark red, perfectly matching her crimson hair.

Combined with the mini skirt she wore, the outfit made her look both elegant and cute at the same time.

So-ah looked embarrassed, her face turning red.

She really suited that outfit.

A store employee who happened to see her widened her eyes in amazement.

"Oh my god! You look absolutely beautiful in that!"

Elvera, standing beside the employee, smiled happily.

"Hmm~ you look really pretty, So-ah."

Min-seo stood next to Elvera without saying anything, but her eyes were shining brightly.

She looked genuinely amazed at how beautiful So-ah looked.

"I-it’s a bit embarrassing because my chest is slightly exposed..."

So-ah said shyly.

"So-ah, that’s just modern women’s fashion. You should get used to it,"

Elvera replied in a gentle tone.

Next, it was Min-seo’s turn.

After a few minutes of waiting, Min-seo pulled the curtain aside.

She appeared wearing a pink dress.

She looked cute... but clearly, that style didn’t suit her at all.

Min-seo’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

"How is it!? Do I look pretty!?"

She asked enthusiastically.

Elvera covered her mouth, trying hard not to laugh.

So-ah burst into laughter as soon as she saw Min-seo’s outfit.

It was obvious Min-seo had no sense of fashion at all.

The store employee gave an awkward smile.

"U-uhm... it looks... nice, miss..."

Min-seo smiled widely.

Elvera wiped the corners of her eyes, almost tearing up from holding her laughter.

"Min-seo... I think I need to teach you how to dress properly."

Min-seo looked confused by Elvera’s words.

In her mind, she truly believed she looked beautiful in that pink dress.

A few moments later...

Min-seo opened the curtain again.

This time, she was wearing a tight purple dress.

The dress fit her perfectly, highlighting her moderate chest and slender figure.

It looked elegant, mature, and extremely flattering on her.

"U-uhm... are you sure this suits me? It’s kind of tight and revealing..."

Min-seo said shyly.

Her face turned red.

Her yellow hair was tied into a short side ponytail, making her look even more charming.

So-ah widened her eyes in shock.

She couldn’t help but feel a little jealous of Min-seo’s sudden transformation.

Elvera clapped her hands with a bright smile.

"Of course! You look absolutely gorgeous! You’re even making me feel jealous of your beauty!"

The store employee smiled widely, her eyes sparkling.

"My goodness! You look like a celebrity!"

The people around them also glanced over, clearly impressed by Min-seo’s appearance.

Min-seo smiled happily, blushing from all the compliments.

Next...

It was Elvera’s turn.

Elvera slowly pulled the curtain aside.

She appeared wearing a tight black dress.

Her large chest fit the outfit perfectly, making her look stunning and seductive.

Her long black hair was tied into a ponytail, flowing neatly behind her.

Her bangs covered part of her forehead, and her straight black hair shimmered softly under the store lights.

She looked like a goddess of beauty.

"How do I look?" Elvera asked calmly.

The three of them froze.

So-ah, Min-seo, and even the store employee couldn’t say anything.

They were completely speechless.

Elvera was on another level.

Their eyes sparkled in pure admiration.

So-ah thought to herself,

Am I really worthy of competing with her for Oppa Jinhoo’s heart?

Min-seo also thought,

Oh my god... I’m seriously jealous...

"Amazing!! Miss Elvera, were you a celebrity before!? You’re unbelievably beautiful!"

The employee exclaimed.

Elvera simply smiled.

The other shoppers in the store also stopped for a moment, turning their heads toward Elvera.

Everyone in the shop stared at her.

They were shocked and mesmerized by her beauty.

Elvera smiled inwardly.

Heh heh heh... with this, I can easily seduce Master Yoo Jinhoo. I won’t let those two win. And besides... I have some pretty impressive assets.

She glanced down at her own chest.

Elvera was extremely confident in her looks and firmly believed that Yoo Jinhoo would be attracted to her.

After everything was done...

They paid for all the clothes using Yoo Jinhoo’s ATM card.

"Thank you very much! Please come again!"

The cashier said cheerfully.

The three of them walked out of the store.

So-ah held the receipt in her hands.

When she saw the total amount, her eyes widened.

"3,938,503 won."

"W-what!? That’s almost 4 million won!"

So-ah exclaimed in shock.

She turned to Elvera.

"Is it really okay to use Oppa Jinhoo’s money like this?"

Elvera looked at her and smiled sweetly.

"Of course. Master Yoo Jinhoo himself told me to use it."

Hearing that, So-ah felt relieved.

Her heart calmed down.

Meanwhile, Min-seo looked extremely happy, carrying several shopping bags.

"Expensive! But totally worth it!"

She said cheerfully.

Elvera smiled when she heard that.

After walking around the mall for a few more hours...

So-ah started to feel hungry.

"Ugh... I’m hungry..."

"Oh? You’re hungry? Then let’s find a good restaurant here!"

Elvera said.

So-ah’s face brightened.

"Let’s go!!"

Min-seo also smiled widely.

They went to a high-end restaurant inside the mall.

They sat at table number eight.

A waiter came over and handed them the menus.

So-ah took the menu and looked at the dishes.

Everything was expensive.

She felt a little awkward and nervous.

"Order whatever you want,"

Elvera said softly.

Hearing that, So-ah and Min-seo began to order.

"U-uhm... I’ll have the honey barbecue beef,"

So-ah said.

The waiter wrote it down.

"I’ll order the grilled ribs,"

Min-seo added.

The waiter nodded and noted it.

Elvera smiled and then spoke.

"I’ll have the seafood platter."

The waiter wrote down her order as well.

Just at that moment...

A loud shout came from a table not too far away.

A man was eating with his family.

"THIS IS DISGUSTING! DAMN IT! TAKE IT BACK!"

The man yelled angrily.

The three of them turned their heads.

Elvera frowned.

"Waiter, that man is very noisy."

The waiter looked nervous and started sweating.

"U-uhm... I’m very sorry for the inconvenience, miss. That man is actually one of our regular customers. He often comes here, even though he always complains that the food is bad..."

Hearing that, all three of them were surprised.

Elvera felt that something was strange.

Her eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at the man.

Someone who always complains... but keeps coming back?

Her instincts told her something was off.
