"YOU want me to shoot for who?"
"Gucci."
"And you're the one telling me about this because...?"
"Because your manager told me to because you hate Gucci."
Mingzhu's about to deny it and hesitates to speak but decides not to when realising that he's right.
Hate is a strong word, but she's not necessarily fond of Gucci. She doesn't know why it's such a high brand when it's just so... ugly. She doesn't want to model and promote a brand that she doesn't even like or wear.
"No thanks." she simply says, beginning to stand up from the couch to talk to the manager but he pushes her head back down and shakes his head frantically. She looks at him with an annoyed expression.
"No, don't cancel it! This is an awesome chance for me and you to model for such a high end brand. I love Gucci, you and I both know that." he explains, smiling brightly. Just thinking about modelling with his dream brand makes him giddy.
"Model on your own then." she deadpans the obvious answer and tries to stand up but he pushes her back down again.
"Well you see... your manager said in a meeting that you wanted to model for them. He thinks that it's a good way to promote yourself and besides, this is a once in a life time opportunity." he explains, trying to persuade her but she was stubborn and didn't do what she didn't want.
"Model on your own then." she repeats slowly as if he's a kid that doesn't understand and he laughs awkwardly.
"Well you see... they wanted us to do a photoshoot together since it's a paired modelling shoot. As in, we're going to model together. As in, like a couple."
"I don't believe you. You're not that stupid to agree to something like that on behalf of me." she says and walks out the room.
He remains standing still like a statue, knowing that he messed up... but did he really? It's Gucci! How could he turn that down?

"Mingzhu, remember back in August when I told you about the Gucci modelling thing? It's today. Get up and get ready."
Taehyung smacks her face to wake her up, quickly telling her everything before running out her room in case she attacks him back. She barely had time to open her eyes before he splurted everything out and she was confused.
"What Gucci thing?" she mumbles, yawning and rubbing her eyes before getting out of bed to shower and brush her teeth.

"I can't believe he's making me do this. I really hate him with a passion— a large passion." she says whilst rambling to the camera man instead of the Bangtan Bomb camera following her, knowing that what she just said was going to get cut out anyways.
She walks out the room after getting her outfit on but the only thing that was sticking out was her obvious frown. Not her expensive clothes, her styled hair or her jewellery. Her frown.
It was a mix between anger, boredom and betrayal. She didn't know which emotion was over powering the others but she felt them all and the last person she wanted to see was Taehyung.
But there he was, dressed in a patterned suit with a jumper underneath and his neck was covered in various different types of chokers and necklaces. He had a few rings on his fingers and his blonde hair was styled to be tousled and messy.
He posed cooly by the door, waiting for her to compliment him, however he got nothing but an unimpressed and bored look.
"Nice to have a personal ego bruiser. You make me more modest but insecure as the days go by." he says with an amused smile, patting her on the back but she ignores him, walking on set to wait infront of the cameras for the shoot to start.
He quickly follows and stands by her, both watching the camera crew get everything ready before a lady with a clipboard walks up to them, introducing herself and explaining everything from the poses that they're going to do, to the concept etc.
Taehyung listens carefully and nods to everything the lady tells them whereas Mingzhu however, seems to have drifted off into her own train of thoughts, wondering what she did to make life hate her so much.

Mingzhu and Taehyung scroll through their twitter feed; it was blowing up since Gucci had posted the pictures and they wanted to know what people thought of it.

"That's a first." she mumbles, confused that she's recieving so much love and support. Taehyung elbows her in the stomach.
"Don't say that." he tells her whilst she rubs the area where he hit her and scowls.
"I was joking." she mutters under her breath before continuing to read more tweets.
"Maybe I should force you to model with brands that you hate more often?" Taehyung suggests as she rolls her eyes.
"Yeah do that and next time, the brand won't be the only thing I'll hate."
