章節 38: Chapter 38: Punch

The sound of flesh meeting flesh echoed through the dimly lit bar, causing a few patrons to turn their heads in curiosity. Kane had never expected to be on the receiving end of a slap, but there he was, staring at Yohan with hurt and confusion etched across his face.

"Why did you do that?" Kane's voice held a hint of desperation as he reached out for Yohan.

"Because you deserved it!" Yohan retorted angrily, taking a step back from Kane's touch.

Kane looked at him sadly, using his most charming smile in an attempt to defuse the situation. "Darling..." He began softly.

"Don't darling me! I'm not your darling!" Yohan interrupted fiercely, feeling his anger boiling over.

But then something strange happened. The man who had just been slapped suddenly burst into laughter and started stroking the cheek that had been struck. Yohan watched in disbelief as Kane's expression shifted from hurt to amusement.
