Spending the Villain's Money to Stay Alive
ChuChu⁴
[Life remaining: 9 minutes and 1 second!]
Taehyung's eyelids fluttered, and he slowly opened up his groggy eyes.
The electronic voice ran again in his head.
[Wealthy Housewife System, Initiated!]
[In order to live, you must work hard to survive life in the upper class!]
Taehyung was dumbfounded.
Dazed, what he saw in front of him was a cold and handsome face of a man, and in his black eyes, there was blazing anger.
He blinked and started looking downward.
It seemed the man had just finished showering. The handsome man’s wet black hair was glistening with water droplets that were still slowly dripping down…
This man was quite an eye candy. So this was Jeon Jungkook, the original owner’s fiancé?
Before his thoughts could go any more south, his chin was clamped tightly by fingers the very next second!
The forceful and long fingers quickly traveled down, and finally, viciously wrapped around his neck!
Jeon Jungkook
“Are you done looking?”
There were fires in Jeon Jungkook's quiet and chilled eyes. He reached out and had his hands around the idiotic boy’s neck.
His windpipe was blocked, and he immediately frowned in pain. This body, just like his original one, was unusually sensitive to pain!
Now that he was having trouble breathing, it brought back his memories of the car accident clearly…. The pain of his ribs puncturing his lungs and the pain of desperation… fear made him shiver uncontrollably!
[Life remaining: 8 minutes 56 seconds.]
[Life remaining: 8 minutes 43 seconds…. 7 minutes 57 seconds… 7 minutes….]
[When the balance reaches zero, you will die in an accident.]
Taehyung's face turned pale. His body was covered in cold sweat and goosebumps!
Struggle could be seen clearly in his limpid eyes.
Jungkook tightened his grip and lifted him up like he was a little chicken.
Jeon Jungkook
“Who said you can come inside my room?”
BANG! Taehyung was tossed into a pile of clothes.
This was when Jeon Jungkook was able to see clearly the condition of his closet.
Half of his suits and shirts that were hung and organized by events, colors, etc. had fallen onto the bottom of the closet. They were crumpled up like pickled vegetables and the boy was sitting right on them!
Immediately, his face darkened completely.
A screen suddenly appeared in front of the still shivering Taehyung.
[Current Level: LV 0 – The Upper Class Fiancée on the Brink of Death (About to die in an accident).]
[Recharge to extend your life.]
[Method of Recharging: Receive Money or Valuables from Wealthy Husband.]
[Note: 24 hours additional life for every $1,000.]
[Life Remaining: 6 minutes 33 seconds.]
Taehyung's mouth dropped open.
$1000 for one day of life?
He looked at the violent man who was on the brink of choking him to death in disbelief.
On the other hand, his remaining life flashing on the screen in front of him continue to decline.
Before long, the beeping orange alert had turned into red alert!
Taehyung felt a tightness in his chest as though he was going to die of heart disease in the next second.
The gloominess in Jungkook's eyes seemed to have materialized,
Jeon Jungkook
“Who? Who told you to hide in my closet?”
Taehyung struggled to breath in every bit of fresh air.
He could live if he did what the system told him? He could live if he groveled.
Jeon Jungkook
“So you don’t want to tell me, huh?”
Jungkook snickered, turned, and walked over to the couch. He picked up the phone.
Jeon Jungkook
“Siyi, call the cops. Someone broke….”
Kim Taehyung
“Wait… wait!”
Even his voice was trembling.
He only has 6 minutes! His body would probably already be cold before the cops arrive!
Taehyung quickly dashed out from the closet. In merely a few steps, he had his hand on his phone!
The boss was his lifeline.
He looked up pitifully at the bitterly cold face,
Kim Taehyung
“Please, let me explain….”
