67. Obviously angry

After managing to coax Queen Mother and imploring his family over and over again not to spill the beans, Jimin hurriedly slipped away.

After getting in the car, Jimin sent a message to Taehyung: [Where are you?]

Taehyung replied: [In the hotel.]

How did he return so quickly? He couldn't have been waiting this whole time, right?

Jimin replied as he beamed. [I'll be right there.]

The chat screen always showed that the other person was typing...but he didn't ask for the news even though "Typing..." had been flashing repeatedly for a while.

Jimin could almost imagine Taehyung's hesitation. He probably wanted to ask but didn't dare to?

He couldn't help but want to give Taehyung a call. In the end, his cellphone rang first.

This must be the legendary 'lovers' telepathy' people were talking about!

Hehehe. Jimin giggled first before answering the call.

Taehyung's voice sounded through the microphone, "...Are you already on the way?"

Jimin wanted to tease him a little. For instance, pretending that his parents had expelled him out of the house and the like. But he was afraid that Taehyung would be anxious, so he promptly said instead, "Mm-hmm, I'll be at the hotel soon."

Taehyung paused for a moment before finally asking, "Did Uncle and Auntie..."

Jimin said, "Let's talk about it face to face!"

Hearing Jimin's lively voice, Taehyung couldn't help feeling slightly relieved. Certainly, he never believed that he would be accepted. Still, taking this first step was already a great progress.

Jimin already hung up the call, but Taehyung was still staring at the cellphone in his hand for a while. His anxious heart finally calmed down a little. He couldn't help but touch his cellphone, his fingertips fell on Jimin's fair-skinned face.

Jimin calmed himself down in the car beforehand before arriving at the hotel. He shouldn't be too cheerful, he certainly shouldn't...

Once he hypnotized himself with a few words of reassurances, Liu asked faintly, "Brother Jimin, did you score a pentkill again just now?"

Jimin, "..."

Liu said, "The last time I saw you being so happy was when you got a pentkill..."

Jimin glared at him as he said, "When am I happy? I'm obviously angry right now!"

Liu, "....."

Jimin didn't trust his own acting skills. He adjusted the emotions in his face, then questioned Liu closely, "Look at me. Do I not look pitiful, nervous, with a bit of lingering fear in my face?"

Liu's reply was considerably euphemistic, "...I might need to search the dictionary for the definition of 'pitiful', 'nervous', and 'lingering fear'."

Jimin went silent. "Then, what expression could you see in my face?"

Liu said under his breath, "As pleased as Punch."

Brother Jimin was shamed into anger. "Choi Liu, are you blind?"

Liu, "...P-p-probably!"

Jimin, "I'll give you three days off, go see an ophthalmologist right away!"

Liu, "Eh..."

Jimin gave him a card. "Here's a medical card for you. I'll beat you to death if you don't spend all of it."

Liu took a look at the 'medical card'. He truly had no idea if that famous luxury store had a hospital in it...
