On the way home, it rained heavily. Heavy rain made the road to the city closed. Looking at the traffic in front of him, Park Jimin turned off the car engine and parked it on the side of the road.

The lights in Seoul were on at the moment, but some street lights on this street were already broken. All around, it was dark and quiet, and the sound of heavy rain falling around the car was heard.

No one spoke.

Only when Park Jimin's phone rang, did she turned to look at him. Seeing that he did not answer, she said softly. "Your phone rang."

Finally, Park Jimin moved. He looked at the number and immediately switched off the phone. He set aside his phone when he saw the traffic finally moving; he started the car and dove slowly.

After moving a distance of three meters, both were once again trapped in traffic jams. They could also hear the sound of sirens and quarrels in front of them.

Jeon Rosè tried to observe what was happening in front of her when she suddenly heard the sound of the car door open. As she turned around, she saw Park Jimin get out of the car.

"Wait! It's raining heavily outside." Her voice was interrupted by the sound of the car door closing from the outside. She looked at the tall figure walked through the heavy rain recklessly.

Jeon Rosè remembered that she had an umbrella in her bag and quickly took it. It was raining heavily outside, and Park Jimin would have a fever if he were soaking wet like this. Quickly, she hurried out of the car.

It was raining so hard that she couldn't see the view in front of her. Jeon Rosè vaguely remembered the direction that Park Jimin had taken, so she walked in that direction rapidly. On this stormy night, the umbrella in her hand almost flew several times due to the wind.

"Looks like your car was stuck here too, just like us. If we keep waiting like this, we might get stuck here until tomorrow morning, waiting for the traffic police to arrive!"

"That's right, the road ahead was closed. If it weren't for your carelessness, our car would have passed! You've seen the road condition but you're still speeding your van."

"Sorry, I'm sorry. Who would have thought there would be a big hole in the side of the road? I ignored it, and the wheels suddenly got stuck. I did not expect this to happen."

Hearing the commotion from the other side, Jeon Rosè saw the rear wheels of a medium-sized van had sunk into a small hole in the highway and could not be driven away. Under these circumstances, someone usually will call for help or inform the police. The crane tried to pull the van, but due to the road in front was blocked by heavy rain, the crane could not get past it.

At the same time, she saw Park Jimin , leaning on the back of the van, apparently where the van had fallen. He stood up and said something to the anxious driver nearby.

Jeon Rosè stood farther away from the others, though, she still saw the faces of those around him shining with a little hope. "All right, let's try it."

After a brief discussion, the van's driver nodded and got back into the van to restart the engine. Four or five men nearby pushed the back of the van with all their might.

The number of people helping gradually increased to seven or eight people. Soon, there were more than ten people, and Park Jimin was among them.

After more than ten minutes of effort, they finally managed to push the van out of the hole. Cheers were immediately heard from everyone, and everyone's faces were colored with a sense of accomplishment.

When Jeon Rosè saw Park Jimin , she quickly chased him with an umbrella in her hand. Even though his body was drenched, she still held the umbrella over his head.

"It's raining too much. I wanted to give you an umbrella, but it looked like I'm late." Jeon Rosè suddenly smiled as she watched Park Jimin's drenched body.

Her clear eyes shone like the stars amid the light flickering around her. "I was afraid I was just adding to the load, so I just stood by and watched for a moment!"

Park Jimin knew that she was saying it on purpose; he looked at her with disdain. "Get in the car. I guess it won't be long before we can leave."

Jeon Rosè nodded with a smile and placed an umbrella over their heads.

As the two of them got into the car, Jeon Rosè hastily took a tissue from her bag to wipe off the water on her face and hands. Seeing Park Jimin 's wet body, she took another tissue and wiped his face.

Park Jimin didn't resist and just looked at her with astonishment.

Jeon Rosè almost used a small packet of tissue before she finally finished wiping his hair and face. Suddenly, she saw a drop of water running down his cheek to his chin. She hurriedly took a piece of tissue and carefully wiped the water droplets on his chin.

Her eyes accidentally met a pair of dark eyes that were watching her.

Only then did she notice how intimate their postures were.

Almost half of Jeon Rosè 's body was close to Park Jimin, and they were very close.

Jeon Rosè could not refrain from freezing. Seeing the faint smile on Park Jimin's eyes, she quickly pulled her hand away and rushed back to her seat. She held the tissue tightly in her hand and looked at the slow-moving traffic ahead.

While there was no more traffic, there were too many cars in front and behind them, so their car moved slowly.

Park Jimin was in no hurry to start the engine. Instead, he casually put his hand on the steering wheel and looked at the woman next to him with a face full of laughter. His clear voice brought a different meaning, "If I remember correctly, tonight is our wedding night."

The corner of Jeon Rosè's mouth twitched as she held the tissue tightly. Her lips moved slightly, but she could not utter a word. In the end, she closed her mouth and pretended not to hear him.

Out of the corner of her eye, she detected Park Jimin approaching her. He pressed his hand to the car seat next to her head, and Jeon Rosè backed away in shock. She was almost trapped within his reach.

Park Jimin just looked at her with a non-smiling smile. The look in his eyes changed under the headlights of the car, yet he said nothing.

He just looked at Jeon Rosè like that, watching her face as she was forced into a corner.

Jeon Rosè felt a little awkward because they both have a legitimate relationship.

"Jeon Rosè, how are we going to spend the night?"
