Under the bright lighting, Jooeun turned her head and glanced at Jeonghwan. This almighty king of the entertainment industry, her man, was currently scanning her up and down with a look of admiration.

Jooeun looked at him curiously. Just as she was about to question him, Jeonghwan spoke up first. "I have good news related to you..."

"Huh?" Jooeun looked at him questioningly as she bit her bottom lip.

"The world-class designer brand Givenchy has sent GK an invite. They want you to attend the launch event for their new product." Jeonghwan explained. "You should be aware that not many people have the ability to attract the attention of world-class designers. Within Asia, you are now one of them."

Givenchy. . .

Jooeun was shocked. "How is this possible?"

"A while ago, I sent your information to the US to go in the running for 'The Most Beautiful Legs in the World', and Givenchy was fascinated by you." Jeonghwan grabbed two glasses of champagne from a passing waiter and passed one to Jooeun. "It's a shame we just missed out on Victoria's Secret event."

"We still have next year." Jooeun comforted. "No matter what changes happen in the future, who's to say I won't appear on Victoria's Secret runway next year?"

Jeonghwan reached out his hand and stroked Jooeun's hair as he said in a gentle voice. "You've only taken 4 months to achieve all this, you're already amazing."

"When will we be heading for the event?"

"On the 18th. I'll go with you. I'll help you battle the world."

The edge of Jooeun's eyes suddenly reddened as she held onto the champagne with one hand and grabbed Jeonghwan's hand with the other. While no one noticed, she intertwined her fingers with his.

"Hoobae, the song you sang with Yoona at the awards ceremony was really nice. Could you sing it again?" Everyone started to get hyped up as they requested Jooeun to perform. However, she wasn't a singer. With so many famous singers on the scene, Jooeun didn't want to embarrass herself.

"I only sang it for fun." Jooeun replied.

"It doesn't matter. Joowon here isn't an actor either, but he often guests stars on shows hahaha!"

"Yes, that's right. Hurry, go on..."

Jooeun looked at Jeonghwan helplessly as she pinched his hand gesturing for him to help her. However, he tossed away her hand and said, "Go ahead."

Jooeun lifted her head and looked around. Suddenly, an idea came to mind. She grabbed Jeonghwan's hand again and dragged him towards the stage.

"Wow! Is President Lee going to sing?"

"I wonder how President sounds like when he sings."

"He's not tone deaf right?"

"Would someone as capable as President Lee be tone deaf? Would you believe it if I told you President Lee could outdo all the best actors if he decided to act?"

Jeonghwan was dragged onto the stage by Jooeun while the crowd quickly gathered around. She held onto a microphone and handed him the other one as she looked at him seriously, trying to determine whether he was willing to sing with her. "If you really don't want to, then forget about it. It's just, after being married for so long, apart from understanding your habits, I don't know what other hobbies you have and what else you are capable of."

Jeonghwan lifted his eyebrows. "What I am and aren't capable of? Isn't there plenty of information about it?"

"You know as well as I do how truthful the information in the outside world is."

"Do you really want to sing with me?"

Jooeun nodded her head, satisfying his pride.

Jeonghwan did not say anything. He simply grabbed the microphone from Jooeun's hand and placed it to one side. He then looked over at Joowon. "Let me use your piano."

Joowon quickly stands up in his seat. Jeonghwan sat in front of the grand piano and looked at Jooeun. "There are too many people, I don't want to sing. However, I can provide music for you."

"You can't sing?"

"I don't sing in front of just anyone. When we get home, I'll sing to you all you like." Jeonghwan chuckled before reminding here. "Let's get started."

Playing the piano is one of Jeonghwan's many skills, so those present weren't that surprised. However, none of them had ever heard him perform. As for Jeonghwan's other skills, not many people were truly sure.

Everyone watched as Jeonghwan tried to push some keys to the piano. A moment later, the prelude to the song 'My Love' resonated across everyone's ears. Jooeun lifted the microphone to her mouth and began to sing. Although her singing wasn't at a professional level, she at least remembered all the lyrics and notes and her voice was pleasant to the ear.

Not long after, they reached the interlude. The melodious sound of the piano intertwined itself into the song, surprising most of the singers present. The part that Jeonghwan played was the most passionate part of the song.

Jooeun was also mesmerized. She was used to seeing the suited-up Jeonghwan who ruled the business world. So it was rare to see this side of him. The Lee Jeonghwan played the grand piano.

She also remained in a daze. She even forgot that the song was only halfway through. Jeonghwan quickly glanced at her as a reminder, but Jooeun had already put down her microphone. She simply wanted to listen to Mo Ting play the rest of the song.

Jeonghwan looked deep into her eyes and decided to let her have her way as he concentrated on playing the rest of the song. Everyone was satisfied. Out of all the celebration dinners GK had hosted over the years, this was the first time Jeonghwan had completely let go. Not only did he laugh and chat with everyone, he even performed on stage.

However, was Jeonghwan really that nice? He acted this way simply because he wanted Jooeun to be taken care of and he wanted her to have more friends. He wanted her to suffer less.

With a blink of an eye, the celebration dinner neared its end. Jeonghwan wanted to leave with Jooeun, but because she didn't have much on and had been wearing high heels for too long, her legs were beginning to show discomfort.

Jeonghwan glanced at her quickly and suddenly knelt down in front of her as they were leaving. "Hop on. I'll carry you."

"There are people outside!" Jooeun reminded him to quickly get up.

"Are you going to get on, or do you want me to force you?"

In order not to discuss this matter in front of everyone, Jooeun ended up climbing onto Jeonghwan's back. "Everyone in the agency knows now!"

"The people outside of the agency don't know." Jeonghwan replied. "As long as I don't allow them to spread rumors, no one will dare speak of it. Only when I hint for them to spread something, will the public hear about it."

For example, Jooeun and Sungkyung's comparison photo. At present, Jooeun was still unaware of the photo. Neither was she aware that as soon as Sungkyung returned to her apartment, she was severely beaten. Jeonghwan had said he was going to give her an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, and Changwook's arrangement was on point. Even if Sungkyung was to go to the hospital, she would have no idea who hit her.

Soomin also did not avoid the beating. A person like her was going to get beaten sooner or later. However, she knew this was GK's doing and couldn't just sit and endure it. She intended on taking GK's secret with her to SM, so she could live happily ever after with her boyfriend.
