Wi Woori ff299beeea grumbled and d4fa8cd4ed propped his 9e40cfdc1a chin on 1b65453478 his hand. He was sitting a 7ac676d75b bit away from where fdc5451af7 his classmates were gathered, 7f59d3fb77 cheering enthusiastically, up in f3c701f8a3 the high stands.1710fce392ae7371

Next to him was Kim Chanyoung. And with him was Jang Yujin, whom he hadn’t seen in a while. After exchanging a brief nod with her, Wi Woori replied indifferently, “I don’t know,” and looked back at Kim Donghwa.bc1b141def9a3c00
