Our Glamorous Time( A Vsoo adaptation novel by Ding Mo)

Chapter 13(She's Just Getting Started)

Taehyung remained silent. Without looking at him, Jisoo quickly responded, “Sure.” She turned around and left.

...

Considering his one and only younger sister had reached out to him, Namjoon didn’t wait for her to get permission from her managers first. As soon as Jisoo walked out of Mr Kim’s office, her brother was already calling. “The appointment has been booked. Four o’clock tomorrow afternoon.”

Amazed, Jisoo immediately started to praise him, “You’re truly amazing.” But secretly she thought to herself, You’re still that freaking bossy! What if Mr Kim turns it down?

Namjoon was pretty clear on this. Regarding her kind offer, the president of Layover would have to accept it whether he liked it or not.

According to Namjoon, the president of Ming Sheng, Kang Mingcong, would be back from his business trip from Beijing tomorrow at noon. Jisoo thought about this; she believed that the timing of her brother’s plan was perfect. Since Ming Sheng closed at 5:30 pm, there couldn’t be many arrangements scheduled in between his landing and closing time, allowing them to communicate for 60 to 90 minutes. It would be a rare opportunity with plenty of time for them.

Taking her time at her desk, Jisoo then returned to Mr Kim’s office to give them the information. Cheerful, Mr Park immediately called in the staff from the marketing department. Taehyung remained quiet, glancing at her.

He isn’t upset, is he? Jisoo worried. He should be... content, right? After all, the situation is looking better after using a connection.

In the evening, Mr Gong Yoo left the office with his trusted staff just like earlier. Only this time, everyone was clearly in a good mood. Jisoo looked up with a polite smile. Surprisingly, Mr Gong Yoo walked towards her, reaching out his hand.

“Assistant Kim, I heard the story from President Kim. Thank you so much. You solved a huge problem for our marketing department.”

Jisoo quickly stood up, grinning.

Huh? Boss gave me a compliment?

She waited until after they left, then walked across the room. Jisoo was peeking through the latched door into the office. Still not planning on leaving? Are you even pleased?

In the middle of her thoughts, a cold and clear voice came through the office. “Come in.” It almost felt like he had been watching her as well.

She pushed the door open to see Mr Kim’s eyes were fixed on her as he stood by the desk.

“Can I help you with anything?” she asked, smiling.

There was silence as though he were deep in thought. He then turned, walking towards her.

The late afternoon sun fell slanted and gloomy through the window. But the rays of bright sunshine looked like ripples shimmering above his head, leaving his facial features gentle and glowing.

He stopped a step away from her; he just stood there, glaring at her.

The jet-black eyes of his were deep without any expression. Jisoo began to worry a little. Why’s he standing so close to me? I thought he never approached strangers.

She composed herself under his penetrating gaze.

In a low, calm voice, he asked, “Why are you helping me like this?”

Slightly stunned, Jisoo responded honestly, “Because you deserve it.”

He stared down at her, eyes appearing to become more peaceful.

“Thank you, Kim Jisoo.”

Blinking, Jisoo knew he was honestly expressing his gratefulness.

She looked down at the small distance between them, then looked up at his stern, handsome face.
