Supporting Actress

Chapter 5

For the next two days, Ding Jae-chan did not appear again. She knew that he probably needed to tidy up, so she did not look for him and focused on her work.

She successfully prosecuted two cases and received compliments from Minister Pu Dae-young and the senior prosecutors. She spent the past two days very fulfilling.

However, the plot was getting closer and closer. Even Shin Hee-moon, who prided herself on being mentally strong, was getting a little anxious.

Fortunately, two days before Valentine's Day, Ding Jae-chan finally called her.

There was no other reason. He was moving house and wanted to invite her to a housewarming party.

Shin Hee-moon let out a long sigh of relief. This guy can't hold it in anymore.

Yes, this time, he would be moving next door to the female lead, Nam Hong-joo. When he delivered cakes to the new neighbor, he was mercilessly rejected by Nam Hong-joo. This was the earliest interaction they had after they became adults.

Now that Shin Hee-moon was here, it was impossible to let them develop freely, even if they did not completely cut off their relationship.

It was the weekend, so Shin Hee-moon went out early.

The night before, Ding Jae-chan and her brother had already tidied up the new house. They asked her to come just to freeload.

When she arrived, Ding Sheng-yuan was holding a plate of cakes and urging Ding Jae-chan to deliver it to the new neighbor. Although it was a traditional custom, Ding Jae-chan was not good at dealing with strangers. His whole face was full of reluctance.

When he saw Shin Hee-moon, it was as if he saw his savior. Without thinking, he took the plate and stuffed it in her hand. "Ximin, go and deliver it for me."

"This... is not very good." Shin Hee-moon hesitated and frowned.

The Ding brothers were going to live here in the future. How could she, an outsider, send them off?

It was true that she wanted to stop him from developing his relationship with Nan Hongzhu, but she didn't want to completely cut off their relationship. It was still fine for them to interact like normal neighbors. "How about this? If you're shy, I'll accompany you to send her off."

"Who said I am shy? Let's do it."

Ding Jae-chan's tsundere temper flared up again. He took back the plate with a sullen face and walked to the opposite door.

How could Shin Hee-moon let him go alone? She hurriedly trotted after him.

Just like in the plot, Ding Jae-chan forced a smile and rang the doorbell, but Nam Hong-joo refused to let him in.

Of course, Shin Hee-moon knew that Nam Hong-joo didn't open the door because she felt uncomfortable in her dream of hugging Ding Jae-chan.

However, other people did not know that, especially Ding Jae-chan, who was in the middle of it all, was so angry that his nose was about to become crooked.

Shin Hee-moon found it amusing, but she couldn't laugh in front of him. She glanced at his face, which was as dark as the bottom of a pot. Finally, she thoughtfully patted him on the shoulder and rang the doorbell again.

No matter how uncomfortable Nam Hong-joo was to avoid arousing suspicion, she was too embarrassed to show her displeasure when she saw that it was a girl outside the door.

Sure enough, after a few seconds, the door was opened from the inside. Nam Hong-joo poked her head out with a poker face. "What else do you want?"

Shin Hee-moon pulled Ding Jae-chan, who looked unhappy, to her side, and then smiled innocently. "Miss, we just moved here. We just want to say hello to our new neighbor. We mean no harm."

Nam Hong-joo looked at the two of them and couldn't help but frown in confusion.

The man was tall and handsome, and the woman was fair and beautiful with a sweet smile. When they stood together, they were a very good-looking couple. What was wrong? Why did she dream that she took the initiative to hug someone else's boyfriend?

Thinking of this, her face became ugly again. She didn't care about being polite and said coldly, "Now that we've said hello, can we leave now?"

Then, before Shin Hee-moon could answer, she fiercely added, "By the way, miss, out of kindness, I'll remind you again. Whether you believe it or not, please control your boyfriend!"

Since she didn't have a problem, the problem must be with this man. Nam Hong-joo glared at Ding Jae-chan and slammed the door.

"Bang!" The two people standing at the door were shocked and took two steps back at the same time.

How could there be such an unreasonable person in the world?

Ding Jae-chan felt that his worldview had been refreshed. It was fine that she disliked him, but even the innocent Shin Hee-moon was implicated. This was intolerable!

He was so angry that he trembled. Just as he was about to step forward and smash the door, Shin Hee-moon quickly grabbed his arm and said, "Forget it. It's the first day you moved in, there's no need to have a conflict with the neighbor. She's rude, so we won't interact with her in the future …"

She swore on Da Lu River's moral integrity that she really didn't want to sow discord. Who would have thought that the female lead's temper would be so bad, directly attacking without distinguishing between right and wrong. Now, she didn't need to say anything, and Ding Zaican was going to hate Nan Hongzhu to death.

After much persuasion, Shin Hee-moon finally pulled Ding Jae-chan home.

Ding Sheng-yuan had already seen that they had been snubbed. He was afraid that his brother would blame him, so he found an excuse to go back to his room.

Only the two of them were left in the living room. Ding Jae-chan curled up on the sofa and sulked. Shin Hee-moon ignored him. She walked around the room and looked at the case file on her phone. She sat on the other side and looked at it.

The room was very quiet, and she was unknowingly immersed in the case.

After an unknown amount of time, she felt someone pat her shoulder. She rubbed her sore eyes and looked over.

A piece of paper was handed to her, and she subconsciously took it.

Ding Jae-chan couldn't help but think about what happened at the bus station that night. He felt that the atmosphere was not right when he was with Shin Hee-moon, so he pursed his lips and didn't say anything.

Shin Hee-moon didn't notice his discomfort. She took the paper and subconsciously glanced at it. She was immediately attracted by the content.

It was a notice. The general idea was that Ding Jae-chan had passed the judicial examination. After consideration and approval, he would be assigned to the Hanjiang District Public Prosecutor's Office as a prosecutor. He was informed that he would officially report to the Public Prosecutor's Office on February 13th, which was tomorrow.

So, they were really going to be colleagues. Shin Hee-moon looked up with bright eyes and saw the back of Ding Jae-chan's head. However, her sharp eyes noticed a suspicious blush behind his ears.

Tsk, a little tsundere.

Shin Hee-moon's eyes curved happily.

She was in a good mood and had dinner with the Ding brothers. Before Shin Hee-moon left, she took out a notebook from her bag and solemnly handed it to Ding Jae-chan.

It was definitely not a love letter. When Ding Jae-chan opened the notebook that night, he found that it was actually a list of things to take note of when working as a prosecutor. It was very detailed, and even the preferences and taboos of every senior prosecutor were clearly marked.

On the last page:

"If you really mind that I couldn't help hugging you that night, then I apologize.

I know you don't hate me, so don't feel awkward and don't ignore me. Bye. "

It was signed — Lonely and Poor Shin Hee-moon.

Ding Jae-chan read the short sentence over and over again. He couldn't help but smile.
