26 HER CUTE MISTAKE?

After opening that high fence, Jieun can catch Eun-Woo's face who is standing soaking wet in front of her. Certainly at that time Eun-Woo was also quite surprised by the situation he was facing.

'What is she doing in here? Is she live here? Please act like you don't know me or these guys will never leave me alone. '

Eun-Woo just keeps watching Jieun in silent, hoping that she catch the clue. He feels a bit relieved when Jieun is not saying anything.

"Hi pretty lady, sorry to disturb you this late at night, but we really need to shelter from this weather." Haru speaks on his brother's behalf pretending to be a gentleman as he always do.

But as Jieun still feel confused about the situation and thunder sound not helping and mumbling his voice she didn't really catch on what he is saying and just ignore him completely.

Just a few seconds after that Jieun realize there's a horses lining behind all the men.

"Oh my God! The horses are drenching. Please come in fast. " Jieun invites them all in without much question when she sees their horses getting wet. She was afraid if the horses got sick with the weather like this.

"Well... Luckily she saw the horses." Haru complaining alone feeling a bit hurt as the girl seem not to noticed him.

She then instructed them to put their horses in the barn before she called some workers that still there to help drying the horses and give them drinks and food. She is not the one that like to ask her workers to work overtime, but as she's now tight on her hand she had to ask for help. Thankfully, her workers is fine with that.

Afterwards, Jieun brought her guests to the guest room for them to clean themselves. She is preparing all their need and hand out a new dry towel for them, as the other worker that suppose to done that probably sleeping right now looking how late that is. She was not clumsy to manage it all because she had previously helped when Ayana working there.

After she manages the fireplace in the big room, she is now feeling satisfied with her task and excuses herself.

"All of you can clean up yourself first. I already open the boiler inside the bathroom and the water should be warm now. Let me know if you all need something else. I will call for granny Susan about you all arriving and we will be waiting in the guest lounge for more procedure if you all ready. "

Jieun said it politely making Eun-Woo a bit flinch as he never saw that girl being like that, professional and all. Well, all that they had done before is bickering after all.

Once again Jieun glanced her eyes at Eun-Woo before she left the room. In her mind, she was full of question marks, but how could she ask this to the man with that many guests. So she had to hide her feelings now as best as she could.

"Something weird about that girl?" Leo is suddenly speaking out his mind.

"Weird right. She just ignores me when I'm talking to her. " Haru also feels a bit disappointed.

"It's not that you moron!" Leo tapped Haru's head that unable to catch the true meaning of his question.

"She didn't say our status?" Syaoran guessed.

"She indeed refers to us as a guest and not a prince." Ray also just realizing.

"Did anyone in this country doesn't know us? Sound isn't convincing. " Haru finally come to his senses.

"That's not important anyway." Eun-Woo speaks suddenly even though he's never the one who always gets engaged in that kind of conversation. Just… He also doesn't get himself.

"Eun-woo is right. She is kind enough to let us in and aid to us. Even I find it weird, but we should be thankful. After all, we will meet the person in charge of this place later so hurry up and get ready so that we will not make them wait for so long. " Ray finalizes the conversation as usual.

"In that case, let me get showered first." Haru runs fast wanted to get into the bathroom first before anyone else even though he is the youngest. They are not really into the hierarchy anyway.

"Wait! Ethan is..." Leo warning is useless now.

"Ouch! Ethan!" Haru is now flying out of the bathroom as a result of being kicked by Ethan.

"Using the bathroom now." Leo finishes his words at least even its too late.

::Guest Lounge::

Jieun was there alone when she saw that Granny Susan had already gone to sleep and she doesn't have a heart to wake the old granny who she knows must be tired from work this day. So, she decided to manage the guest herself, according to the procedure that she previously learned.

Every guest who comes must write their personal information if they do not have a village pass so that if anything occurs, it easier for her management to detect the problem. Just like a hotel in her real world, just everything here is done in a manual way.

After almost an hour she waited there, finally all the visitors gathered there. Although she was a little extra nervous when she saw all of the man, she still tried to be casual so that the process went smoothly.

"I'm sure all of you have a long day today, but I need to make sure everything is according to this mansion procedure as all this is required for all of our guests. I cannot see any village pass from you so I need you to fill in your detail here. " Jieun distribution of personal information forms to them one by one along with a pen.

After that Jieun found that all of them just looked at her as if strange with the situation. 'What? Didn't I say it out loud, just now? Why they're looking at me like that? ' Jieun still flashing her smile even though she feel a bit uncomfortable.

"I...is there any problem?" Jieun asking when she saw all the guest is still not writing anything.

Suddenly she heard the man that she always encounters before, sigh heavily and walking toward her. He then stood beside her with a sharp look.

"Where is granny Susan?" The man asks.

"Why? I just told you about the procedure. So be a nice guy and just fill out the form. " Jieun suddenly sounded brave and try to ask him nicely.

"It's easier if Granny Susan is here. Where is she? " Eun-Woo still trying to keep his composure.

"Why are you so stubborn? Granny is asleep right now. Look at what time is it. So just fill in the form and we are done here. I'm sure you're not wanting to be in this lounge forever do you? " Jieun get mad a little as the man is always making her feel like that. Who knows why actually? There had been bad blood between them after all.

"Oh my! Brother Eun-Woo is getting scolded by a girl?" Haru gets excited watching the scene.

Other guys in there just laughing when they saw Eun-Woo being told off by a girl. It's clearly funny to them, but certainly enjoying the free performances.

Eun-Woo just ignores his brother's and continue to talk.

'Eun-woo? So that's his name?' Jieun who just knowing her enemy name just watching him sharply.

"If that's the case lets talk tomorrow when she is awake." Eun-woo put down the clean paper in front of Jieun refusing to write anything and even tries to walk away.

Jieun who can't put up with that yanking his hand and give back the paper quite harsh. Other princes also a bit startled looking at her bold movement. They know Eun-woo well. Holding him like that is same as putting a death sentence to yourself especially people that he don't know well. Even its a girl.

"Why are you being so complicated. All the guest must follow the rules here." Jieun can't believe this man's attitude.

But, surprising even to the princes, Eun-woo just letting the girl hold him without doing anything but just staring at her sharply.

"Oh my God! Lady Jieun. " Ayana looks for Jieun who did not go up to the room for quite long finally arrived there. They sometime sleep in the same room while chatting about their daily life. Her face clearly showed anxiety after looking at all the guest there.

"Oh, Aya… I am just working on our guest procedure." Jieun said, looking all innocent while she let go of Eun-Woo hand at the same time.

"Aaa… What are you doing? Why are you talking like that to him when he is the one who own the castle?" Ayana come close to Jieun and whispering to her ears.

"What? Owner? Castle?" That new information seem to get into Jieun's brain slowly while she watches Eun-Woo a couple of times.

'Wait… He is in the castle that day… He also said probably his own the forest...' She pondered in her mind.

"Oh no!" Suddenly Jieun screaming so loud that shocking the whole group there.

"I'm so sorry for my rudeness… My King!" Jieun than talking in a loud voice as she feel rush to get into his good side. She doesn't want a death sentence anyway.

Then, she bow to the ground completely infront of Eun-Woo making everyone in there deadpan by her antic. "Long live the King." She said that repeatly.

"Oh my lady!" Ayana just knocking her head at the time after she saw that Jieun misinterpret by what she saying just now.
