My Personal Stand-in (TaeKook)
16
Taehyung worked until eleven o’clock in the evening before they finally called it a day.
Jungkook didn’t look like a person with patience, but he quietly sat in a corner the entire time, eyes closed and earphones in his ears, silently waiting for Taehyung.
Although everyone on set was stunned by his looks, no one could tell what he was thinking.
Once in a while, Taehyung would turn his head and see Jungkook sitting at the side with an indifferent expression on his face, glancing at him from time to time.
This person waited eight to nine hours for him, from the afternoon to nearly midnight.
Taehyung didn’t know why Jungkook decided to do this, but he was very touched
Never in his life had there been anyone who had waited so long for him for the sake of going home together with him. Taehyung simply didn’t know how to describe how happy he felt.
Jungkook is a person who captivates people like this.
There are times when he’s very cold, and there are also times when he does unexpectedly moving things.
Taehyung is finding it more and more impossible to move his eyes away from such a contradictory and mysterious person.
After Taehyung finishes work
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
* walks over to Jungkook*
Jeon Jungkook
* resting with his eyes closed*
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
* touches Jungkook nose* ☺️
Jeon Jungkook
*opens his eyes*
Finished work?
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
☺️ Yup, sorry for making you wait so long. You should have gone back first.
Jeon Jungkook
It’s boring being alone.
Jeon Jungkook
* stands up and stretches his legs*
Jeon Jungkook
Let’s go eat something. I know a place that has good Japanese cuisine, you should follow my car there.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
Sure, you lead the way. 😊
They go downstairs, and Taehyung sees that Jungkook’s car is a Lexus SUV.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
*Glances at it and then laughs*
You are indeed a rich second generation.
Jungkook’s family are people who follow the principle
‘Not To Show The Mountain And Not To Reveal The Water’.
They never show off their wealth outside.
This car is simply an ordinary means of transport. But, in Taehyung’s opinion, it’s already incredible that someone as young as Jungkook drives a car worth around one million.
Jeon Jungkook
*casually says*
It’s my dad’s
Because it’s already so late, the drive is smooth, and they reach the restaurant very quickly.
After all the dishes arrive, the waiter closes the door for them, leaving the two of them alone in the quiet space.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
*pours him some wine and laughs*
Jungkook, I’m so sorry for making you wait so long. You looked like you were about to fall asleep in your seat.
Jeon Jungkook
It’s fine, I had nothing to do anyway
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
Didn’t you say that you’re going to start a business? What have you been up to lately?
Jeon Jungkook
Financing Stuf
Jungkook seemed reluctant to discuss work-related stuff with him.
Jeon Jungkook
Try this, it’s good for your kidneys.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
🤣🤣 Your Taehyung- hyung’s liver is excellent. Seeing how energetic you are, you should really be eating more to supplement yourself.
Taehyung was alluding to what happened in the afternoon in the toilet.
Jeon Jungkook
*shot him a side-glance*
That glance was packed with ambiguity and extremely amorous, making Taehyung’s little heart violently tremble.
Jeon Jungkook
Eat more. Your job doesn’t have fixed hours, and the nature of your profession is dangerous. That’s very bad for your health
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
*Took one sip for his sake and said quietly*
Why are you suddenly so concerned about me?
Jeon Jungkook
*looked at him with narrowed eyes*
You naturally need to be in good health because I quite like being together with you.
Taehyung could feel that his cheeks were burning hot and his heart was pounding out of control.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
*blurted out without thinking*
How about you move in and live together with me?
After he said those words, the two of them froze.
Jeon Jungkook
*silently stirred the mustard with his chopsticks*🥢
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
*head was also down, deeply regretting the words he had accidentally blurted out without thinking*
He had definitely scared Jungkook. They had only known each other for two weeks, and he already wanted to live together with him.
Taehyung wasn’t actually really thinking of living with him.
In the least, he definitely wasn’t prepared to live with someone he didn’t understand.
No matter how compatible their bodies were, cohabitation was a matter that required careful consideration.
It’d be too unsightly if their personalities clashed, and they ended up falling out with each other.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
💭 I’m already this old; why am I still making irresponsible remarks? What on earth is wrong with me?
Taehyung really wanted to give himself two slaps on the face.
Fortunately, Jungkook didn’t make any comment, using silence to express his refusal.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
*let out a breath of relief, but at the same time, he felt a vague sense of disappointment*
He felt that he was getting more and more abnormal.
So long as it was a matter related to Jungkook, he would always lack some rationality in the way he handled things.
His heart gave off a big warning bell 🔔
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
💭 Jungkook has so much influence on me. I didn't really fall for him, did I?
Taehyung had long passed the age where he would dash on bravely disregarding his own safety for the sake of love.
Falling in love with a twenty-year-old youngster, who blew hot and cold and who he didn’t know much about, when he was nearing thirty was definitely not a good thing.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
*lowered his eyes, working hard to conceal his emotions*
If he had to make a choice now, he would rather continue being s*x friends with Jungkook than involve his feelings in it.
However, from the looks of it, all this internal conflict was just wishful thinking on his part.
Jeon Jungkook
*changed the topic and placed a piece of fish-roe sushi onto Taehyung’s plate* 🍣
Jeon Jungkook
Eat this. This place has excellent business; all the ingredients are really fresh.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
Oh, okay.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
Mm.... This tastes pretty good.
They continued to chat and eat as if nothing had happened.
Jeon Jungkook
*picked it up and saw that it was a call from Soo-hyun. He immediately answered*
Lee Soo-hyun
Ah, Jungkook 📱
It was obvious from Soo-hyun’s voice that he was intoxicated.
Jeon Jungkook
What’s wrong? You’ve been drinking? 📱
Lee Soo-hyun
Ah, yeah, come over. I’m inviting you out to eat. 📱
Jeon Jungkook
Where are you? I’ll go pick you up.📱
Lee Soo-hyun
I... I don’t know where.....📱
Someone next to Soo-hyun snatched away his phone.
Unknown
Hello, can you come to pick up Mr. Lee? He’s at Tang Hui. He’s drunk a lot.📱
Jeon Jungkook
I’ll be there right away. Please watch him 📱
Jeon Jungkook
*immediately stood up*
Soo-hyun’s voice was no longer recognizable. Taehyung could only tell that someone was drunk but didn’t know who it was
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
Your friend is drunk?
Jeon Jungkook
Wait for me; I’ll go send him home and then come back.
Jeon Jungkook
*then hastily put on his shoes and rushed out*
Taehyung wanted to say,
’No need, I’ll go home by myself,’
but before he could open his mouth, Jungkook had already disappeared without a trace
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
💭 I wonder who it was on the other end to be able to make Jungkook so anxious.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
*Stared at the table of uneaten fine cuisine and felt really upset*
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
💭 Should I pay and leave, or should I do as Jungkook said and wait for him to come back?
Taehyung decided to continue eating and wait for him for a while. It was possible that Jungkook might really be able to come back after sending that person back home.
Taehyung waited two hours. He really couldn’t wait any longer, so he gave Jungkook a phone call.
The call went through, but Jungkook hung up almost immediately after.
This is the kind of person Jungkook is.
One second, he helps place food in the Taehyung's bowl and shows concern for his health,
and in the next second, he hangs up his phone call without considering Taehyung's feelings.
An unstable personality like this—no matter how good Taehyung's temper is—even he can't quite handle it.
Kim Taehyung (Before Reincarnation)
*little sigh and called a waiter to settle the bill*
This meal cost over three thousand yuan, which was more than one month of food expenses for him.
However, he didn’t complain. He had never been a petty person and had originally been planning to treat him to this dinner anyway.
It was just that this meal hadn’t been a happy one. Jungkook left after only eating a few bites and didn’t come back again.
Even though it wasn’t too mature to think this way, Taehyung felt as if he had been toyed with. Taehyung dejectedly returned home
