After returning to the hotel room, finally Jungkook halts his footsteps. However, his warm hand is still holding me tightly. When I look over at him, I only discover his complexion is very unsightly. His chest is heaving slightly and his pale lips is closely pursed up. He appears like he is repressing his anger.
He emits a kind of pressure which makes me quickly change the topic to break the silent: "General manager, are you thirsty? I'll go and pour you a glass of water ......"
He turns his face and fixed his gaze on me without saying a word.
I mock him by giving a dry cough: "Not thirsty ah? Then I'll get a hot towel for you to wipe your sweat ......"
His face is expressionless when he casts sidelong glances at me. He continues to hold my wrist tightly in silent.
I feel numb and shrink back: "General manager, you are still sick. Go and lie down on the bed la ......"
He squints and takes a step forward with a cold face.
Seeing that he seems to be on the verge of eruption, I quickly bow to compromise: "General manager, I ...... I made a mistake, okay?"
Finally big boss Jeon's complexion turns slightly better and he nods his head: "Very good, so tell me about your mistake?"
Realizing that I did not fulfil my responsibility to take care of him just now, I am genuinely remorseful: "I should have filled up the glass with water before going out. Because of my negligent, you have no water to drink when you woke up ......
He glares at me, his eyes narrow dangerously and he takes a deep breath: "What else?"
What else? What else did I do wrong? I rack my brain to think hard. With a remorseful look, I say: "I should not have gone out to see Mingyu."
His eyes flash slightly and he nods in satisfaction: "It seems that you finally know what is your mistake."
Seeing big boss Jeon's complexion is getting a lot better, I promptly strike while the iron is hot to further acknowledge my mistake: "Ah, I really know my mistake. I should not have left without a word just now. Instead I should have left a note to tell you before going out ......"
Before I finish talking, all of a sudden, Jungkook's complexion turns dark. He glares at me with a pair of good-looking jet- black eyes and frowns. It seems like he is sorely tempted to throttle me.
This man is too fickle so he is very hard to serve! I don't feel like humbling myself to admit my mistake again. Thus, I say boldly and confidently: "Don't only focus on me. General manager, you are also in the wrong. You should not have tarnished my reputation just now. You also should not have kept that photo. If the co-workers in the company see it, I'll be ruined ...... "
Talking about it, suddenly I think of those ruthless female colleagues in the company. If I let them misunderstand my relationship with general manager, then I'll not be able to mingle with them. As far as I am concerned, I've a golden rice bowl (Note: meaning secure and lucrative job). If the bowl is broken, I reckon my mom will also smash me up ......
Suddenly, I feel Jungkook has loosened his grip on my hand. He seems like he is going to say something. But he is a bit unsteady and drops on the sofa. His eyes are tightly closed. He is gasping for breath. He appears weak and unconscious.
"General manager, how are you?" I anxiously touch his forehead. It is really scaling hot.
At this moment, when I see Jungkook is in a fragile state of health, a wicked idea immediately comes to mind. Big boss Jeon's image has always been in high spirits. It is rare to see him in such a weak state. In the normal course of events, it is impossible to get him to delete the kissing picture. Even on that day when I took
