Taehyung tap was soft yet firm, and it was quick. His cedar fragrance lingered at Jungkook nose. Jungkook felt that Taehyung words were a little inappropriate but he could not pinpoint what
Zhao Liying
Zhao Liying
(She looked at the two of them and said) Second Master, Young Master Jungkook, are you going to take this dress?
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He looked at Jungkook)
Jungkook
Jungkook
<Nodded>
Zhao Liying
Zhao Liying
(She then said ) We also have a pair of Shoes and a bag that goes together with the dress, do you want to take a look?
Since Jungkook had decided to take the dress, it would be better for him to take a whole set. So, he followed Zhao Liying and browsed through all the recommendations. After selecting everything, Jungkook went back into the dressing room and changed into her T-shirt and jeans. Since the dress had to be altered, Jungkook returned to the VIP waiting section. Before he could sit down,Taehyung stood up and waved at him.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Give me a hand.
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He was confused, but he went over anyway.) What’s wrong, Second Brother?
Taehyung moved his long and slender legs and brought Jungkook to another section. Seeing this next section that was lined up with rows of suits and formal shirts, Jungkook fell silent for a second. he was sure The had a ton of suits and shirts for a formal dinner back at his house.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Pick one. (He signed by moving his chin)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He looked at where his eyes were on and realized he wanted to pick a tie.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He definitely did not lack ties, but since he wanted him to choose one, he did as he was told.)
Jungkook asked for the color and design of his suit and shirt before he eventually chose a black tie. Taehyung seemed to suit black a lot. He took it and then slightly lifted his chin to tie the tie on himself. The contour of his jawline from the side was perfect, and as he lifted his head, his sexy Adam’s apple was also showing. His slender fingers moved around his neck, and the initially loose collar was now zipped tight by the black tie. The laziness in him faded, and his deep, seductive eyes made him look somewhat more restrained. Jungkook took two steps back. Taehyung had his back to him but he could see him through the giant mirror in front of him. Every detail on his face was perfectly reflected in the mirror. he had to give it to Taehyung for being such a gifted model. On top of his God-favored looks, his unique presence outshone everything around him. He had what it took to attract countless socialites and ladies from the capital to court after him. Taehyung lifted his eyes and caught the boy sizing him up through the mirror. Suddenly, they locked eyes in the mirror, and he lifted his lips into a grin.

Kim Taehyung
How do I look?
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He was stunned for a moment before he nodded honestly.) it looks good on you
Taehyung turned around and leaned forward toward her a little. This time, they locked eyes face to face with the distance between them shortened in a split second. As the two of them breathed, Jungkook could feel the endless warmth from his body and even see a tiny reflection of himself in his deep eyes. The feeling of being squeezed in a tight space enveloped him again, and he could not help but hold his breath. Deep down, he was not just an innocent 17-year-old, and with Taehyung posture, the temptation was lethal. Taehyung lips then curled into a deep smile as she softly flicked her forehead.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
You have a good eye.
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He did not know whether Taehyung was referring to his choice of the tie or something else.)
Taehyung straightened his body, hooked his finger on the tie, and pulled it off his collar.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He then gave the tie to Zhao Liying and said) Put them together
Zhao Liying
Zhao Liying
Will do, Second Master
Zhao Liying
Zhao Liying
(She told the receptionists to pack the selected items separately)
Zhao Liying
Zhao Liying
Second Master Kim, the total is 628,000 RMB.
Compared to a custom-made dress, a ready-made dress was a much lower price. However, G&S’s price would never let someone ‘down’. Just as Jungkook was about to pay for it, Taehyung stopped him. He gave Zhao Liying his card and stuffed Jungkook card back into his purse. Jungkook still insisted on paying.
Jungkook
Jungkook
Second Brother, this is mine. I should pay for it myself.
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He wondered why Kim Taehyung wanted to pay for his dress.)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He looked at him and then lowered his face to him, where he teased him with a smile)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
I took a kid out shopping and if the kid had to pay with her pocket money, I’d become an after-meal joke if word got out
Jungkook
Jungkook
<Stunned>
Zhao Liying
Zhao Liying
(Zhao Liying watched from the side and had the urge to laugh. She started to wonder if Young Master Jungkook and Second Master Kim were really close, or was it all just a show?)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He thought Taehyung words were quite reasonable. Besides, it would not be appropriate to argue with him in front of strangers.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
Then… Thank you, Second Brother
Jungkook
Jungkook
(Deep down, Jungkook sighed. he was already in his debt and now with the dress, he owed him even more. he ought to repay his favor if he had the chance.)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(When He spoke next, his tone was even deeper, and the warmth of his breath burned as it brushed past her ears.) Keep your pocket money for candies
Jungkook
Jungkook
<Speechless>
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He was really treating him like a little boy.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He looked up at him) I haven’t had a candy in years.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He smiled and decided to play along. ) Okay okay, I’ll buy you candies later
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He was at a loss for words.)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(However, He did not think there was anything wrong with what he said. He then looked at his watch and realized that it was already 11:00 a.m.)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Send everything to the Lee Family except for my tie
Zhao Liying
Zhao Liying
<Smiled and nodded>
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He originally planned to return home after buying his dress, but judging from Taehyung order)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He looked into his eyes and said) Let’s have lunch and I’ll send you home
• •
Jungkook followed Taehyung along to a Japanese restaurant that was on the top floor of the mall. As a member-only establishment, the restaurant was decorated with elegant designs which gave it a peaceful and quiet atmosphere. The two of them got into the VIP room.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He passed the menu to Jungkook) You can order whatever you fancy.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(Just then, the phone he had put on the table buzzed).
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He had a glance at the message and it was from Jhope)
Jhope
Jhope
[I’ve just finished my meeting. Are you still in HG with Little Jungkook?]
Jhope
Jhope
[Old Qin said you’re at his restaurant for lunch. Which room are you in? Send me the location and I’ll drop by.]
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He then replied.) [You can come two hours later. It’s full and there’s no seat for you]
Jhope
Jhope
(Having just grabbed his car keys, He was stunned.)
Jhope
Jhope
[Kim Taehyung, you better not push it! You’re still using my member card!]
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He replied calmly.) [Yeah, but the land is mine.]
Jhope
Jhope
<Speechless>
It was said that Jung Ho-seok slammed the door on his way out of the meeting room and it shocked all the workers in the company. It was also said that Jung Ho-seok had called Old Master Jung, proposing to buy out HG, but he got scolded by the old man instead. It somehow became a little gossip among the workers.
Workers
Workers
Tsk tsk. It’s not even the birthday dinner yet and the grandchildren are already fighting for his wealth. The rich just want to get richer and richer!
Jungkook was clueless about the many things that had happened within that half a day
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He ordered a few dishes based on his preference and then passed the menu back.) Second Brother, I’ve ordered a few things. Take a look and see what else you’d like to add on.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He raised a brow at his choices. Fugu sashimi. He did not take raw stuff yet she ordered it.)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
I heard you worked in a cafe before ( he suddenly asked)
Jungkook
Jungkook
<Heart skipped a beat>
Jungkook
Jungkook
Yeah
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Do you know how to make coffee?
Jungkook
Jungkook
..A little
Jungkook
Jungkook
(Taehyung stared at him for a while, and his heart beat faster. Just when he thought Taehyung would ask him about the coffee, what he said next defied his expectation.)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
What’s your favorite?
Jungkook
Jungkook
Mocha
Jungkook grabbed his cup and took a sip of tea.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
<He raised a curious brow.> (Mocha tasted sweet but bitter at the same time, so he did not expect the boy to like such a mature flavor.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He glanced at him before quickly moving hie eyes away.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(Mocha was not actually his favorite. Instead, he liked espresso more, which was also Taehyung favorite.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(However, that was not something he could reveal at this time)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
What color do you like?
Jungkook
Jungkook
(It only took Jungkook a second to answer. ) Blue
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Your favorite subject?
Jungkook
Jungkook
Physics.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Favourite food?
Jungkook
Jungkook
Sichuan cuisine.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Who do you like?
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He put his cup down and asked) Second Brother, are you doing a background check on me?
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He was fine with the questions until the last one.)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
<Chuckled. > So, you don’t have a person you like?
Jungkook
Jungkook
Of course not. Besides, you told me to not fall in love at my age, didn’t you?
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He raised his hands and rubbed his temples with a grin. He looked happy but helpless at the same time.)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
If you have any questions that you’d like to ask me, ask away. I’ll answer them.
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He Shook his head. ) I don’t have any questions.
Jungkook
Jungkook
💭It was just lunch. Why the barrage of questions?
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He squinted his eyes.)
Knock. Knock. There were a few knocks on the door before the waiter came in and served the food. Taehyung paused the topic for the time being. It was Jungkook first time having a meal with Taehyung alone. He had a unique presence to him that made him seem cold and distant like he was an unreachable mountain peak. However, the Taehyung now was laid back and relaxed. His sharp gaze and keen eyes were gone, and what replaced it was patience and kindness. If those folks from the capital were here and saw Kim Taehyung in his current state, their jaws would fall on the floor.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
The papers I bought for you the other day, have started doing them? (He picked up a piece of tuna sushi with his chopstick and asked.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He was quiet for a moment before he answered) I’ve… done some of them
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
How is it? Is it difficult?
Jungkook
Jungkook
It’s alright, I guess.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
You can come to me if you have any problems
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(It might have been years since He did any high-school mockup tests, but he believed he should be able to help the boy with some questions.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He reminded him) Second Brother, we have teachers at school.
Jungkook
Jungkook
(Even if he ran into some problems, he could ask the teachers at school. Why would he trouble Taehyung instead?)
(The man’s time was gold, especially the time he spent in Busan for rehabilitation. It would be best if he was not disturbed)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(With that in mind, he hesitated slightly before asking) And… Second Brother, you won’t be in Busan for long right?
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He remembered that in his past life, Kim Taehyung was only in Busan for less than a year. After a quick calculation, he assumed Taehyung should be back at the capital before the new year.)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
It’s not yet decided.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He looked at him and did a mental calculation of the time.) I still have some matters to deal with here. I can leave when I’m done, so maybe after or before the new year.
Jungkook
Jungkook
<Frowned.>
Jungkook
Jungkook
💭That long? Is it because of his condition? Is it not getting better?
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He wanted to ask these questions but realized not many knew about him rehabilitating in Busan. It would be inappropriate for him to ask)
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
(He looked at the boy and captured every emotion on his face. He could not help but chuckle.) You’re going back to the Lee Family in the afternoon?
Jungkook
Jungkook
<Nodded>
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Great, I’ll drive you.
Jungkook
Jungkook
(Two hours later, He saw a grudgeful-looking Jhope. Seeing that Jhope was in a bad mood, he quickly recalled his past memories for a hint.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(In his past life, Old Master Jung birthday dinner was a success and everything went smoothly.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(If such, then what caused Jhope bad mood?)
Jhope
Jhope
(He saw Jungkook and Taehyung walking towards him together but he did not want to say a word)
Jhope
Jhope
(It was until Jungkook got into the car did he ask begrudgingly) Little Jungkook, how was lunch? Is the Japanese cuisine up to your expectations?
Jungkook
Jungkook
<Nodded> It was not bad
Jhope
Jhope
(Jungkook words made his mood worse)
Jhope
Jhope
Was… it full?
Jungkook
Jungkook
(A quick thought later, he said) Not at all.
Jhope
Jhope
(He urge to buyout HG grew stronger after he heard the answer.)
Jhope glared at Taehyung but before he could say a word, Taehyung phone rang
Taehyung took a glance at the phone and hung up.
Jhope
Jhope
(When he caught a glimpse at the caller ID and knew it was Dr. Choi, his bad mood faded slightly.)
If Dr. Choi was calling at this hour, it must be about Taehyung condition. However, Jungkook was in the backseat. Taehyung leaned back on the passenger seat with his usual coolness, as though the phone call was not important.
Jhope
Jhope
(He on the other hand, dared not ignore the fact that Dr. choi called)
Jhope
Jhope
(A quick thought later, he said) Little Jungkook, I suddenly thought of something that I must settle at home. It’s quite urgent…
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He was surprised. ) It’s fine. I’ll go back on my own—
Jhope
Jhope
Since you’re coming to our mansion for the birthday dinner, why don’t you come with me? (He made an impromptu decision)
Jungkook believed it was a little inappropriate but Taehyung said
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Sure. I’ll tell the guys to deliver his things to Jung residence instead.

Lee Family.
So-hee was sitting in her room, staring blankly at her phone on the table. Her mind was in a mess.
Lee So-Hee
Lee So-Hee
(Jong-seo had just given her a call to ask if she knew about Taehyung accompanying Jungkook dress-shopping at HG)
Lee So-Hee
Lee So-Hee
(Of course she had no idea!)
Lee So-Hee
Lee So-Hee
(She was not at all interested when Jungkook left in the morning. She assumed Jungkook would not be able to buy anything decent given his background.)
Lee So-Hee
Lee So-Hee
(She was sure Jungkook would come back crawling to her, asking for a decent dress to wear.)
Lee So-Hee
Lee So-Hee
(However, she did not expect Jungkook to go shopping with Taehyung!)
Judging from Jong-seo tone, Kim Taehyung even bought out the entire floor for him! So-hee thought about it and realized that Taehyung showed extra care to Jungkook. If they were not close, why would he do so much for him?
Son Ye-jin
Son Ye-jin
Lil Soso, are you done?” (Her voice came from the door)
Lee So-Hee
Lee So-Hee
(She took a deep breath to compose herself before she got up to answer the door)
Son Ye-jin
Son Ye-jin
(She came in and saw several dresses laid out on her bed. Curious, she asked) You haven’t decided yet?
Old Master Jung birthday dinner would be grand and all of Busan upper-class folks would be there, so they could not afford to make any mistakes.
Son Ye-jin
Son Ye-jin
(She had chosen the dress and the accessories for So-hee long before this just so her daughter could surprise everyone)
It was almost time for dinner and So-hee was still in her casual clothes.
Lee So-Hee
Lee So-Hee
<Forced a smile>. I was thinking since Brother Jungkook isn’t back yet, so I should wait
Son Ye-jin
Son Ye-jin
(She reacted strangely to Ye Ci’s words.) Jung Ho-seok called and said Jungkook had already left for Jung residence. He told us to not worry about him
Lee So-Hee
Lee So-Hee
(She was pissed but she still forced a smile.) I’m glad. I didn’t know Brother Jhope cared so much about Brother Jungkook.
Son Ye-jin
Son Ye-jin
(She found it irritating.)
Son Ye-jin
Son Ye-jin
*It was Jungkook first appearance at such an occasion as a part of the Lee Family, yet he went ahead with Jung Ho-seok. How could he humiliate his family like that?)
Jungkook arrived at the Jung residence. Jhope had just parked the car on the porch, and before Jungkook could get down, he saw a graceful woman walking towards them. she walked to the car and bent over slightly to knock on the car window.
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He could only see half of her made-up beautiful face through the window.)
A sweet and gentle voice rang out.
