When they arrived at the apartment, Taehyung forced Jennie to enter the bathroom.
When Taehyung graduated from university, he rented a single-person apartment in a block of apartments not far from the university city. There was one bedroom, kitchen, living room and bathroom as well as a balcony. It was only a few tens of meters big. However, in a single man's point of view, this kind of apartment was absolutely perfect.
After he was making money, he brought this apartment. He seemed to favor this apartment as it was the first one he himself had bought. Even if he had to drive half an hour to go to work, he never thought of moving out.
This was convenient for Jennie. A ten-minute journey couldn't be regarded as far away. Thus, after attending university, when she didn't want to go home during the weekend, she basically stayed here.
Jennie comfortably took a bath. When she came out with a wrapped around her, she didn't see Taehyung. However, she didn't think it was strange. She took the fruit plate to the table. She forked a Hami Melon and ate it. Oh.......it wasn't sweet.
When she had just eaten two pieces, she heard the doorbell ring. Jennie put down the fruit plate and walked to the door while eating a Hami Melon. She thought it was Taehyung who had forgotten the key. However, when she looked through the peephole, she saw a female.
Hesitating a while, Jennie opened the wooden door, revealing only a crack. She looked at the woman through the metal door.
Some houses in China have two doors: one metal, other wood.
That female saw Jennie's head through the crack and was slightly stunned. Then she raised her head to smile pleasantly and asked, "Hello, is this Taehyung's house?"
Jennie raised her eyebrows and pretended to ask, "En, Who are you?" Actually, she definitely already knew this female. She was Zhou Yun Rui, Taehyung's secretary. However, at this time, they definitely "didn't know" each other.
As an expert in the affairs of love, how would Zhou Yun Rui be unable to sense Jennie’s hostility. However, she still maintained her smile and said, "I am Taehyung's secretary, Zhou Yun Rui. Is Taehyung at home right now?"
"No, he isn't here." Although it wasn't polite, Jennie had no intention to open the door to let her in and speak. "Why are you looking for him?
Zhou Yun Rui raised a briefcase, "Taehyung forget to take home a document so he had me bring it to him."
Jennie was about to say to give the document to her so that she could pass it on, but the words hadn't come out when she suddenly changed her mind. "Come in and sit. He'll be back soon."
Finished speaking, she opened the door. Then she let in this woman who coveted her Taehyung.
Zhou Yun Rui originally thought the other party would ask for the documents. Then she would speak righteous words of rejection. She had been prepared to be locked out by the other party. She wanted to use this to gain a little bit of sympathy. In the end, she was allowed in.
After coming in, she saw Jennie’s state of dress and was stunned. Jennie, however, hadn't noticed this point. She took a pair of shoes from the shoe cabinet and placed them on the ground. She pointed at the shoe cabinet, "Place the umbrella there. Come in and sit first. I'll go and change my clothes.
Finished speaking, she didn't mind Zhou Yun Rui and entered the only bedroom and gently shut the door.One hand was holding the bag with the documents, the other hand was holding the umbrella still dripping with water. Zhou Yun Rui was still staring at the shoes on the ground in a daze. Afterwards, she placed the umbrella according to Jennie's instructions and wore the shoes. Then she proceeds to start looking at this small apartment.
The kitchen entrance was in the hallway. The small kitchen had all kinds of cooking implements. Looking at the where they were placed and how old they were, they should be used often. The living room was separated into two by two fully-packed bookcases. On the outside wall, there was a set of cabinets. In the middle were four sofas and a glass table. Inside the bookcase, against a floor-to-ceiling glass window, there was a large double sofa. On the sofa was a snow-white blanket that made people want to go up and roll about. There were also two pink cushions on the sofa. Opposite of this was a computer table. There were also a few exquisite small objects. Considering Taehyung's present circumstances, living in this kind of apartment was a little shabby.
However, to a pair of ordinary sweethearts, this was a simple but warm place to live together.
Zhou Yun Rui placed the briefcase on the sofa. She took a closer look at the decorations of this apartment. These decorations were intensely telling her a fact: There was already a mistress here.
Feminine objects could be found everywhere in the room. The most conspicuous thing was the large class schedule pasted behind the computer table. It was clear it wasn't Taehyung's.
Jennie didn't make Zhou Yun Rui wait too long, she changed clothes and came out. However, what she wore made Zhou Yun Rui be more speechless than when she wrapped a bath towel around herself.
She wore a shoulder-less pink top and small white pants only a few inches long. She saw Zhou Yun Rui standing in front of the computer and showed an artificial smile, "What are standing here for? Please sit. Do you want to drink anything?"
It was the hostess' manner.
Zhou Yun Rui's eyes flashed. She sat down at the sofa where she had placed the briefcase. "Clear water is good."
Jennie handed her a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator. Then she placed the fruit plate on the table. She retreated into the sofa opposite of Zhou Yun Rui and ate fruit. She asked Zhou Yun Rui if she wanted some. When Zhou Yun Rui said she wasn't going to eat, she ate fruit while looking at Zhou Yun Rui who was lost in thought.
Zhou Yun Rui felt a great deal of pressure under those large, blinking eyes that were attentively watching her. She thought she had nowhere to hide under the vision of the opposite party. That pair of snow white thighs lying on the sofa was especially glaring. The matter was completely unlike what she had thought!
Ruan Si Nan, this swindler! Didn't he say Taehyung had no girlfriend?! Didn't he encourage her to pursued Taehyung?! Didn't he say that other than Taehyung's childhood friend, he didn't have anyone he liked?!
But now looking at it, it completely wasn't like that! Taehyung walked through the door with an assortment of bags. He saw Zhou Yun Rui sitting on the sofa and looked at her somewhat surprised, "Why did you come here?"
Zhou Yun Rui stood up and said in a pleasant voice, "Manager Qin, I came to give you the documents."
"Didn't I say I would get the documents tomorrow? Why did you come to deliver them? "
Taehyung looked at Zhou Yun Rui, a little disgruntled. Today, he had left the company early to meet Jennie, and hadn't finished all of his work. He knew very clearly the thoughts of this woman. However, half of the decision-making power was in Ruan Si Nan's hands. So, providing that she didn't touch his bottom line or make any mistakes in work, he couldn't do anything about her.
The most important thing was if Jennie misunderstood, what was he supposed to do?
That thought flashed through his mind, before completely vanishing. How would Jennie be concerned enough to misunderstand?
Zhou Yun Rui stammered and didn't know what to say.
Jennie watched enough of this play. She acted as peacemaker, with no sincerity, whilst eating Hami melons.
"Okay, she helped you by bringing the documents, out of good intentions. Don't put on a scary face, Taehyung. I'm hungry."
She then turned her head towards Zhou Yun Rui, "It's still raining outside. Why don't you stay and eat dinner with us?"
"Thanks." Zhou Yun Rui naturally didn't refuse.
Taehyung knitted his brows and looked at Jennie but didn't say anything. He put the things in his hand down, before finding a blanket in the room, and placing it on Jennie. He took the fruit plate in her hand and said, "Don't eat too much. You'll ruin your appetite for dinner."
Then, he took the fruit plate and entered the kitchen. Soon, one could hear the sound of chopping vegetables.
Waiting for Taehyung, who wore a cartoon illustrated apron to serve three dishes and one soup, Zhou Yun Rui was very disillusioned. This family man, was he really that cold faced boss who kept his promises in the company?
This meal was very stifling. Other than Taehyung occasionally giving Jennie some food, the three people didn't speak. The food Taehyung made was very delicious, however Zhou Yun Rui felt it was flavorless.
During this period of time, Jennie ate in an unrestrained manner, while observing the expressions of the other two people.
She looked for a long time, before finally feeling relaxed. Fortunately, they weren't dating.
She remembered in her last life, in these two months, she had heard from Ruan Si Nan that Taehyung had a girlfriend. This girlfriend was Zhou Yun Rui. Later, she stirred up a big scene. However, looking at the expressions of these two people, Zhou Yun Rui really did nurture evil intentions, but Taehyung completely didn't have any abnormalities. He hadn't even glanced at Zhou Yun Rui. Moreover, if she wasn't wrong, then Taehyung should like herself.Then....... why would Taehyung have a change of heart in such a short amount of time?
Thinking of this, Jennie's look towards Zhou Yun Rui became very bad. It wouldn't be because she used extreme methods, would it?
After finishing dinner, Zhou Yun Rui helped clean up the table. She wanted to help wash the dishes as well, but was rejected by Taehyung's cold, "Please, go sit."
In the end, she hadn't even settled in her seat, when Jennie said in a loud voice, "Ah! Are you going to go? ............Why don't you stay awhile? ........Oh, you have a date with your boyfriend ........Then, since it's like this, I won't detain you. Have a safe journey."
..................
No words could express Zhou Yun Rui's current feelings. Towards Jennie's complacently smiling face, she simply wanted to throw a shoe at it.
Jennie got the result she wanted and waved her hand goodbye. Sorry, but making bogus accusations, this type of thing, I'm rather good at it.
Zhou Yun Rui naturally didn't want to go, but with Jennie's big voice, Taehyung, who was in the kitchen, had definitely heard it. Could she disregard her face and stubbornly refuse to leave? Or quarrel with Jennie? Get into a fight?
Jennie sent a furious Zhou Yun Rui to the door, smiling and waving her hand.
"Thank you for your hospitality." When Zhou Yun Rui said this sentence, she gnashed her teeth.
"You're welcome." Jennie beamed and then beckoned with her hand. Seeing that Zhou Yun Rui didn't come over, she was forced to move over to the other's ear and said, "Say, if you were expelled from the company for failing to seduce your boss, what company would dare to use you?"
"You....." Zhou Yun Rui didn't dare to believe what she heard and opened her eyes wide.
Jennie innocently looked at her, "Didn't anyone tell you? There are some men you can provoke and then there are some you can't. Sorry. My man, you can't afford to provoke him."
Speaking the last sentence, her face was already completely cold. Her cold expression made people cold to the bottom of their heart. She had already died once so what did she have to fear? Whoever dared to snatch what's hers, she would dare to go all out.
With a bang, the iron gate forcefully closed, really close to Zhou Yun Rui's nose. Zhou Yun Rui recovered after a while. It seemed that she really had provoked a man that she shouldn't have...........Ruan Si Nan was simply digging a pit for her to jump into! Which part of this girl showed that she disliked Taehyung!? Jennie basically regarded him as her own exclusive property. She wasn't able to tolerate other people coveting him. Jennie turned her head and saw Taehyung standing at the kitchen entrance, looking at her. Because he stood with his back to the light, his face was covered with a shadow; she couldn't see his expression.
He heard........ He definitely heard........Jennie no longer had the imposing manner from a moment ago. Her heart was beating quickly; she opened her mouth but didn't know what to say. This wasn't the first time doing a misdeed or threatening people, but she had never been so anxious. At last, she wrote herself off as hopeless and resolved to act recklessly. "Taehyung ........I -"
"Don't just stand there. If you wear so little during such a heavy rain, you'll catch a cold."
After Taehyung finished speaking, he turned around to enter to kitchen. It seemed that he probably hadn't heard her words just then.
Jennie's fire had been totally extinguished by Taehyung's sentence. She rushed up and kicked him with her foot, "Taehyung, you're simply a pig!"
Taehyung, who had been kicked for supposedly no reason, looked speechlessly at the enraged Jennie running away. How did he offend her?
When Taehyung cleaned up, it was still raining. Jennie, who had taken a hot bath earlier, fell asleep on the sofa; satiated with food and drink.
Just like a small cat, she shrank into a small ball on the sofa. Her small nose was wrinkled, as if there was something troubling her. Other than the chest area of her strapless blouse, the waist area's material was nearly transparent. The originally short pants, because she was curling her body, looked even shorter. Vast expanses of her snow-white skin were on display. She slept in front of him, like this, without any defenses.
She acted as if she wasn't aware that she was a girl. Could it be that she had never thought of how dangerous it would be, to be in a room with an ordinary, single guy? It's probably because she was too reassured towards him. Or, more likely........that she basically didn't see him as a man.
Taehyung bitterly smiled and stooped down to pick up Jennie. His hands felt a soft and smooth sensation. He forced down the strange thoughts that were arising. Taehyung placed Jennie on the bed and covered her with a light blanket.
During this time, Jennie hadn't woken up. When she was placed on the bed, she bent her body and shrank into a ball again.
Taehyung stood by the head of the bed and looked at her sleeping face. He couldn't help but recall the sentence she had recently said, "What can I do? I can't walk out."
Actually, he also couldn't walk out.
But, he was really very tired. He didn't want to pretend anymore.
Should he say that she was too heartless, or that he was too naïve? He, unexpectedly, had believed the words of a twelve-year-old. Furthermore, he seriously kept her joking words within his heart.
--I, Jennie, will definitely become Taehyung's woman. So, until I grow up, you can't have any girlfriends. Otherwise, you'll regret it. I am the girl doomed to defeat them.--Haha, then I'll wait.
Look, he really was too naive. Nothing but a joke and he had remembered it for so many years.
At the age of 17, Jennie had placed him in a corral. He stood in the corral, waiting for many years. In the end, he finally discovered, Jennie had never enclosed herself inside. From start to finish, it was just an enclosure for him alone.
