In This Rebirth,The Male Lead Is Mine
Chapter 18
This is the master bedroom, which was originally occupied by Jungkook.
It has now become Taehyung bedroom and has been completely renovated according to his style.
Originally, Jungkook bedroom was practical and simple, but now it has become too gorgeous.
The walls are covered with luxurious Baroque-style wallpaper, and the golden patterns look particularly solemn on the dark red background. Along one wall is a group of classically carved gold-rimmed closets, and the stained glass embedded in the closet doors reminds people of ancient European churches.
In the center of the room stood a carved bed frame made of dark red solid wood. The bed was covered with thick pure white satin sheets and a snow-white duvet. Perhaps because all white was too plain, the edges of the duvet were dotted with finely embroidered lace.
Taehyung walked barefoot on the red carpet, and the delicate velvet texture gave her a comfortable touch on the soles of her feet.
Taehyung walked to the bed, and the fatigue in his body suddenly surged into his heart like an invisible huge wave. He fell hard on the bed, and felt that the soft mattress was like a peaceful ocean, swallowing him deeply.
At that moment, his body seemed to be freed from all burdens. He closed his eyes and tried his best to avoid all the emotional fluctuations brought about by the day.
Taehyung slept until dawn, and when he woke up, he saw a ceiling that looked strange.
He sat up and stared at every corner of the room in a trance. It took him a while to remember that he had moved to this new house.
He heads to the bathroom, which is stocked with a customized array of personal care products.
He immediately realized that these were all things he was used to, such as the facial cleanser on his left hand, which was customized by the brand, with soothing coconut and orange blossom as the main notes, and a gentle formula. The label on the bottle was printed with his favorite abstract art pattern.
Skin creams and perfumes are displayed in velvet-lined drawers, and each bottle is specially made for the brand.
White towels made of high-grade Egyptian cotton are neatly stacked on a smart heated towel rack, set to a temperature of 42°C. The perfect warmth makes the towels feel like the sunshine in early summer when touched.
After washing up, he went downstairs and came to the dining room.
The Carrara marble fireplace he requested stands on the wall of the dining room, and the morning sunlight shines through the dining room window, making the unique stone pattern more clearly visible.
At this time, Aunt Chen came over and asked him what he wanted for breakfast.
Kim Taehyung
Where is Mr. Jeon?
Aunt Chen
{smiled and said}
Mr. jeon left at eight o’clock.
Kim Taehyung
{was surprised}
So early?
Aunt Chen
When driving from Victoria Peak to Central, it’s rush hour, so of course you have to arrive early to avoid being late.
Kim Taehyung
{had nothing to say}
The housekeeper said nearby:
House keeper
Mr. jeon originally lived closer to Central, but he moved here because Mr. Kim liked living in Victoria Peak.
The tone was just like the housekeeper in the novel saying ”I’ve never seen the young master be so nice to someone.
Kim Taehyung
{smiled, but thought in his heart}
Kim Taehyung
💭 How could it be for me? It was obvious that he wanted to live in Taiping Mountain just to get into the upper class.
Kim Taehyung
💭 Just like when he bought horses, he wanted to make friends with horse owners. If I really believed that he did it for me, I would not be Taehyung , but a fool.
The butler could see that Taehyung was not interested in this topic, so he asked him if he had anything special to eat for lunch or dinner.
Kim Taehyung
{suddenly asked}
What does Mr. jeon like to eat?
House keeper
He likes salted duck.
Kim Taehyung
Tonight, let’s make abalone soup with bird’s nest, chicken stewed with black truffles, lobster tail grilled with champagne…
Kim Taehyung
{counted several dishes in one breath, and finally added slowly}
There will also be a salted duck.
For some reason, he did not go out the whole day and just wandered around the villa.
In the evening, the housekeeper asked him
House keeper
Mr. Jeon usually comes back very late. Would Mr. Kim like to have dinner alone?
Kim Taehyung
{his heart sank slightly, but he said proudly}
Of course, I never wait for anyone to eat.
The housekeeper then had dinner served.
He ordered the dinner dishes during the day today. He thought it was for two people, so he ordered a little more.
He ate slowly, and the meal took more than an hour, but Jungkook didn’t come back.
He put down his chopsticks, left the salted duck untouched, and left the dining room.
When he got to the living room, he looked at the TV, flipping through the channels aimlessly.
Tv host
I saw that many serious or entertainment news programs had extensive coverage of last night\’s grand wedding.
The host voice on TV was clear:
Tv host
Hello, everyone! Last night, a grand wedding feast was held in Hong Kong Island. We are here to bring you the romantic wedding highlights of Jeon Jungkook and Kim Taehyung …
As the host spoke, a wonderful moment from last night wedding flashed on the TV screen. Every detail was magnified and presented – petals were falling, and the two people in the picture were like princes in a fairy tale, saying “I do” to each other affectionately, which moved countless viewers.
He suddenly turned off the TV, threw away the remote control, then went upstairs to his room in slippers to sleep.
For several days, he didn’t see Jungkook when he woke up in the morning, and he ate alone at night.
It was as if this magnificent mansion had become his fortress where he lived alone.
It was not until Saturday morning that he met Jungkook .
He saw Jungkook sitting on the sofa watching TV, which was playing financial news.
Jungkook himself was wearing worn-out home clothes, with one hand on his chin and the other holding his cell phone, occasionally sending messages and occasionally looking up at the TV screen.
He looked at Jungkook like this, and felt as if he was in another world.
It seemed as if he had never seen Jungkook so relaxed.
Jungkook heard the footsteps, looked up at Taehyung , and smiled at him:
Jeon Jungkook
Good morning Mr. Kim
Kim Taehyung
Good morning to you too, Mr. Jeon
As he spoke, he slowly sat down on another sofa and turned to watch the news.
He could not help but find that the words from the financial reporter were like a mystery to him. He did not understand anything about indexes or cycles. His eyes gradually became blank as the reporter kept talking, as if he was forced to listen to a performance that he could not understand at all.
Jungkook noticed Taehyung distraction and handed the remote control to him with a smile
Jeon Jungkook
You can change the channel at any time.
Taehyung came back to his senses, took the remote control, and flipped the channel intermittently. He glanced at Jungkook again and was about to say something to him when Jungkook phone rang unexpectedly.
Jungkook took it quickly and chattered a lot in English, obviously communicating with a foreign customer.
Although Taehyung did not understand finance, he knew English and traveled around the world frequently. He sensitively captured some key words and guessed that the person on the other end of the phone should be in New York.
Kim Taehyung
{sighed}
Although Mr. jeon is in Hong Kong Island, he lives in the United States, which is twelve hours behind me.
Before he finished his sigh, Jungkook put away the phone and said,
Jeon Jungkook
I have to go out.
He nodded and didn’t say anything more.
They are not true lovers and have no obligation to accompany each other.
He sat in the room, looking at the seat where Jungkook had just sat, and saw that there was a slight dent there.
he looked away, turned off the TV, changed into new clothes, and went out.
After Jungkook finished dealing with the urgent business, he hurried back home, but Taehyung was missing.
In the evening, Jungkook sat at the dinner table, but there was no sign of Taehyung .
The housekeeper asked,
House keeper
Do you want to eat first?
Jungkook thought about it and hung up the phone with Taehyung .
Taehyung took a long time to answer the phone and said,
Kim Taehyung
📞 What’s the matter, Mr. Jeon
Jeon Jungkook
📞 Are you coming back for dinner?
When he heard this, he paused for a moment, and suddenly remembered the nights he had eaten alone before. He pursed his lips and said,
Kim Taehyung
📞 Is Mr. jeon waiting for me to eat at home?
Jeon Jungkook
📞 Yes, that’s right.
It was hard to tell what Taehyung felt in his heart, but he said calmly:
Kim Taehyung
📞 I’m having dinner with friends.
Jeon Jungkook
{was silent for a moment after hearing this, then smiled and said}
Okay.
Taehyung felt very uncomfortable and was about to hang up the phone when he heard Jungkook says
Jeon Jungkook
By the way, the salted duck you asked the chef to make is delicious. We can eat it together next time.
Taehyung was stunned: Salted duck was what he asked the chef to make on the first night after his marriage.
Kim Taehyung
You…you ate it?
{asked in surprise}
Jeon Jungkook
Yes, I ate it.
Jeon Jungkook
I came back very late that day. I heard that you ordered a table of dishes and didn’t finish them, so I ate them in a hurry.
Kim Taehyung
{he was even more surprised}
Mr. jeon, you eat cold leftovers?
Jeon Jungkook
Yes, Mr. Kim.
{frankly}
Jeon Jungkook
You know how stingy and mean I am.
Kim Taehyung
I really admire you.
Taehyung said this, with the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.
