The moment she turned around, the university student look she was going for was half-gone.

That was what made Jennie special - when she put on makeup, she became stunning, but even without any makeup on, she was still attractive. Quirk her lips and curve her eyes and she'd be the picture of a flirt.

"No," Taehyung stepped on the gas. "I just arrived."

Jungkook stood there staring at the back of the rover, only managing after a long while, "...Damn, it really is Lee Jennie!"

An Tzuxi had to put in plenty of effort to disguise the hatred on her face. She tugged on the edges of her lips, exaggeratedly saying, "So you know Director Kim, that's really impressive."

"What's so impressive about that?" An Tzuxi's attempt at flattery clearly hit the wrong spot, causing jungkook to scrunch up his brows as he gave her a glance.

An Tzuxi shut up.

A few steps later, Jungkook stopped. "Right, you know who was on his car just now?"

"Of course," An Tzuxi smiled forcefully. "Jennie."

Jungkook asked, "You know her?"

"Yeah," Tzuxi said. "We're pretty close."

Jungkook didn't entirely buy that. "Then why didn't you greet each other just now?"

"Wasn't it that you guys were talking and it's not good for us to interrupt?" Tzuxi made sure to sound cute.

Jungkook rolled his eyes in his mind. What's wrong with this person's IQ?

Nevermind, when the lights are off, they're all the same, Jungkook turned around and asked, "Then do you have her contact number?"

Tzuxi asked, "Huh?"

"Yes or no?" Jungkook cut her off. "Didn't you say that you're close?"

Tzuxi was still struggling for an excuse. "Jennie doesn't really like giving away her contact number..."

"What do you know," Jungkook said. "The car she just got onto was my best buddy's car, if I asked for a contact she wouldn't say anything." He upturned his hand, making a taking gesture. "Give me."

Tzuxi bit her teeth. "...Give me a second."

She was fuming, and yet she still had to use WeChat to find her agent Lin-jie to ask for Jennie's contact number.

""""

It was after they'd left the parking lot that Taehyung asked, "Where are we going?"

"What do you want to eat?" Jennie was holding her phone and scrolling through the restaurants on the app.

"Anything's fine," Taehyung said. "The shoe's by your feet."

Jennie lowered her head and glanced at it. The red heel contrasted with the black carpet, giving a sort of lingering charm.

"Anything you don't eat?"

As she spoke, she glanced at Taehyung's arm, her heart pumping away.

Taehyung's arm muscles had beautiful lines, not the exaggerated kind, but the white sleeves barely contained his arms and he appeared infused with power.

Taehyung looked at her askance. "No."

Jennie already had an idea before. Bending forward, she entered the address and the navigator immediately started searching for a route there.

She was close to him, the smell of her body wash covering Taehyung's soap smell.

The fragrance stole into his nose and Taehyung couldn't help wondering, do all women live this exquisitely?
