Just One Day [Taekook]

36) Party Part - 2

"Kim Taehyung." he said, accepting Minjae's handshake.

"Well, Taehyung-ssi, please allow me to buy another drink for you. It was my fault afterall." Minjae offered with a polite smile.

"It's alright, Mr. Lee, it was just an accident. It happens. You don't need to buy my drinks for that." Taehyung said, refusing his offer.

"Please, I insist." Taehyung accepted after that, because he didn't want to sound rude by declining again. Minjae made his way towards the bar while Taehyung followed after him. Minjae asked Taehyung to order whatever he wanted and he ordered a Mai Tai and one Purple Rain.

"No hard drinks?" Minjae asked, seeing that Taehyung had ordered only one cocktail.

"No. I'm here in a professional capacity. And also my boyfriend is with me. So, no hard drinks for me." he answered while waiting for his drinks.

"Oh, so you're a doctor then? What is your field of sepcialization?" Minjae asked, ordering a drink for himself.

"I'm a Cardiac Surgeon, here to wine and dine and if possible, butter up rich people to donate money to the hospital." Taehyung answered, making Minjae laugh.

"If that's the case then you should be buying me a drink, since I'm one of those rich people you're trying to butter up." Taehyung looked at Minjae, dumbfounded at his statement.

"No offense, but shouldn't you look like a middle aged man in his fifties with thinning hair and a paunch?" Taehyung asked, making Minjae chuckle.

"That would be my dad, who was supposed to attend this party initially. But due to some last minute urgent business, he sent me here in his place." Minjae said, making Taehyung nod his head.

"Figures, since young people of your generation would rather be out clubbing than attend some boring party to raise money for the hospital. Again, no offense." Minjae looked at him with a WTF expression on his face.

"You really don't mince your words, do you? And you're right partly, not about the clubbing part, but about this party being boring for me. I would rather be at home, playing games or watching TV than be here. But in any case, shouldn't you be atleast trying to butter me up now that you know I'm one of the people you're supposed to impress?" Minjae asked, accepting the drink from the bartender and walking with Taehyung, who already got his drinks.

"Well, I just assumed that ship has already sailed since you already know my intension. I just thought I'll try my luck with someone else."

"You know, I really like you Taehyung-ssi. You're different. You are not diplomatic and calculative like everyone else here. It's refreshing." Minjae said, making Taehyung raise his eyebrow.

"Are you trying to flirt with me, Mr. Lee? Because I have a very beautiful boyfriend, whom I love very much." Minjae laughed at that, making Taehyung wonder if he said something funny.
