Yeonjin and Jaehyun safely landed in China. Both teams arrived at the biggest fashion school and successfully put up their own booths. Jung Atelier went with a boutique style, where they showcased different collections they released this year. Meanwhile, Jung Parfum is like an expensive perfume house. Two eye-catching structures are just beside each other, so it wasn't a hassle for the people to visit both and even buy outfits that fit the scent, and vice versa.

Both Yeonjin and Jaehyun had a fair share of conversations with the students, teachers, and guests, and of course, it suddenly became a fanmeeting event because of the large request to take pictures with them.


The siblings had also visited other booths and interacted with the owners. This pop-up event will last for three days, so they have ample time to display and market their products.


Day 1 is a blast. Now, they are sharing a heartfelt dinner in the hotel's restaurant.


"I'm happy that the students loved our products," one staff member from Jung Parfum said.

"I'm happy that we got much appreciation today," one staff member from Jung Atelier added.

"I'm just happy to be here," Jaehyun joined, bringing laughter to the table.

"You were literally flying in and out of China," Yeonjin commented.

Jaehyun nodded. "It's exhausting, but at least the hard work pays well. We sold a lot today, too."

"We did. I sincerely thank everyone for that."


The staff's hearts were warmed by the compliment, and they went for another cheer.

They didn't party all out, as most of them are already tired, and none of them got a chance to rest well enough since they arrived in the country. Jaehyun promised that he'll treat everyone on their last night here, where they can have a full celebration. Of course, nobody declined and vowed to do their best on the remaining days so they could put an end to the event with no regret.


They checked in for three rooms—one for Yeonjin and Jaehyun, one for Jung Atelier staffs, and one for Jung Parfum staffs.

Yeonjin and Jaehyun's secretaries were left to their own companies as a substitute for them in the meantime.


Anyway, both of the siblings finished their own nightly routine. They are both huddled in the living area, busy with their own devices, and checked their business status.

Yeonjin was reading and replying to emails when her personal phone rang. She ignored it for a few moments to finish one email, yet the ringing distracted the older sibling, who sighed.


"Can you answer your phone?" Jaehyun asked in a low tone.

"Wait, I have to finish this."

"It's your personal phone; maybe it's important."


Yeonjin sighed and tore her gaze off her laptop. She reached for the phone, and her brow raised, seeing Jeno's name in the caller ID.

She got confused for a minute and was about to ignore it when she remembered their occuring deal. Her face burned as she was more hesitant to answer the call. Her brother is here!
