SIRIES #2: YOU AND ME

Chapter 52

One year later, in Illsan, South Korea.

By 4 pm, the wet street was already full of pedestrians. Some of them held umbrellas, while others walked in the rain.

The sound of drums and the voices of the sellers were endless, accompanied by beautiful music.

Along this street, there were rows of shops crowded with customers and inside a hand-knitting shop, a tall and skinny figure was busy lurking in the middle of the customers, answering the customers' questions about the price of the hat or the scarf.

"Boss, how much is this shawl?"

"78 won."

"Boss, is there another color for this hat?"

"Yes, there's still the blue one. Wait a minute, I'll bring it to you soon ~"

The tall and skinny figure hurried into the store. She took off the hat that was placed inside the glass cabinet and went out to continue entertaining the customers.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier. After more than an hour of busyness, there were finally fewer pedestrians on the street. The hand-knitting shop was no longer as busy as it used to be. There were only two or three customers who were in the middle of trying on their hats and scarves.

The tall and skinny figure took the shawls that had just been messed up by the customers and hung them back on the wall one by one.

The sound of people entering the store came from behind her. The figure immediately turned around with a faint smile, "Welcome."

When she saw who the person was, the smile on her face froze for a moment before turning gentle. "Why are you here?"

Namjoon smiled and set aside the umbrella. He walked into the store and looked around. After a while, those customers who were just strolling around left and sought shelter from the rain.

"Our hospital rarely does group travel. We chose to travel to Illsan this time. I heard from him that you opened a shop here and decided to look around. It seems that your business is running smoothly." Namjoon walked over with a smile.

Jennie knew that "him" Namjoon referred to was Yoongi. She smiled lightly, went to the store, and brought out a plastic chair. "My shop is too small and I usually don't take out the chair, or else there won't be any place for customers to walk around. Please take a seat."

Namjoon didn't refuse. As he sat down, he glanced at the woven tools placed in front of the shop and couldn't help laughing, "You're really self-reliant, you really learned this stuff."

"Of course, if I don't make goods by hand and instead buy them, where will I get a big profit? Although this is just a small business and can't be compared to a company like Park, but in order to make money, I definitely must make as much profit as possible. Otherwise, why would I still need to open a shop?" Jennie smiled and poured some hot water into a disposable cup. She walked over and handed it to him. "Drink it. The food and drink in this street are not necessarily clean. If you are thirsty, come and drink water here."

Namjoon took the cup and placed it on the small wooden table next to him. He didn't drink it and just watched Jennie skillfully fold the scarf into a pretty shape and hang it onto the wall.

"At the time, you said that you wanted to find a small town in the south and live a quiet life. You said you want to find the life that you want." Namjoon stood up and walked closer. He looked around the shop that was full of knitwear items with all sorts of colors and sighed with emotion, "Jennie, is this the life that you want?"

Jennir's hand stopped for a moment. After hanging the last shawl, she turned around and looked at him.

"What's wrong? You don't think it's good for me to do this?" She asked, then smiled.
