"Hey, I didn't do anything bad to you, right?" Kai said with his trademark smile.

Jennie glanced at Kai and tried to contain her inner anger. She then snorted and continued to walk ahead. Kai hastened to catch up with her. "Miss He, you did lose that bet, right? Today..."

"Smack..." Jennie slapped him.

Kai slightly tilted his head aside and the smile on his face immediately disappeared. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Jennie only to find her eyes turn red and a drop of tear flowed down her face. Kai frowned and took a step forward, wondering whether he overdid it.

As Kai took a step forward, Jennie withdrew a step. She wiped her tears off and stared at Kai, saying coldly, "Chu Kai, this is for you fooling me. And I've fulfilled my promise. I hope we don't meet again."

"Why are you angry?" Kai's voice rang out behind Jennie.

Jennie stopped her footsteps, looked back at Kai and sneered. "Mr. Chu, you have surprised me again. Will you just joke it off after you are fooled? Oh, you're really broad-minded!"

"I will be angry, but I won't cry. Have you never been fooled before?" Kai stood in her way. "I didn't think you were so fragile."

"Because she feels aggrieved." A deep voice suddenly spoke out. Jennie was stunned when she heard the voice.

Kai looked at the man walking up to him and frowned. "Aggrieved?"

Tears began to run out of Jennie's eyes again. She turned her head aside so as not to look at that man. The latter looked at her, frowned and pulled her behind him. "Mr. Chu, it's despicable to make use of an innocent woman. It's shameless to make a girl cry. You are despicable and shameless."

"Do I know you?" Kai narrowed his eyes and suddenly felt this man looked familiar. Then he asked, "Are you Min Yoongi? That lieutenant colonel?"

Yoongi took a look at him and turned up the corners of his mouth. "I just met your father. He is looking for you. I..."

Kai raised his hand to interrupt him, saying solemnly, "Okay, I admit that I was being thoughtless and didn't consider Miss He's feelings. My bad. I apologize to Miss He. I just wonder why Miss He was so mad at me that she even cried?"

Jennie looked up at Yoongi and then at Kai. "Your behavior reminds me of something that I try to forget. It has nothing to do with you."

She was so agitated because his behavior touched her sour spot. She thought that it was her fault that she was used by Kai, because even the man she loved ignored her, so other men wouldn't take her seriously as well! So she was feeling hateful and angry at herself...

Yoongi took a look at Jennie who hurriedly lowered her head, dodging his gaze. Yoongi raised his eyebrows and looked at Kai. "You can leave now, Mr. Chu."

If it weren't for his sister, he would have thrown this guy to his father.

Kai pursed his lips, took a look at Jennie and turned to leave.

Yoongi turned around and looked at Jennie. She was still wiping her tears silently. Yoongi just gazed at her quietly. He didn't hand her a tissue or wipe tears for her. When she finally stopped crying, he asked, "Are you hungry?"

Jennie looked at Yoongi in surprise. Seeing her red eyes, Yoongi regretted it a bit that he didn't bring any tissues with him, but this thought soon flitted away.

He looked at Jennie and said, "I heard your conversation in that restaurant. I was a bit worried about you when I saw you run out."

"When did you come to Paris?" Jennie asked.
