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

Chapter 18(Letting the Enemy Off to Catch Him Later)

But she decided that was not enough, and then she went on shouting, "Revenge is a dish best served cold! Just wait for it, Sehun! I'll have my revenge at all costs!" Only after lashing out she could finally calm herself down. She put her phone down, turned her head, and saw a silhouette standing at the entrance of the balcony. He looked very indifferent, and it seemed he had been gazing at her for a long time.

Jisoo had already cried herself into a complete mess. Upon seeing him, she hastily turned her back and wipe her tears with some tissues. Then she stood up like nothing had happened.

"How's everything, Mr.Kim?" she asked.

Mr Kim's coat had at some point been taken off, and he was now only wearing a shirt with the sleeves rolled up and suit pants. He looked a bit sloppy. He stared at her. But instead of answering her question directly, he went over and sat in the chair beside her, eyelids appearing heavy.

Jisoo followed Taehyung and also sat down.

"Everything's been taken care of," he responded calmly. "Some got away but most of them were captured. The police have also arrived. Yeonjun and his fellows were slightly wounded."

Jisoo let out a sigh of relief, but she still felt a sense of heaviness.

Neither of them said anything for a moment. Rather, they looked at the scenery of the night and its endless horizon.

After a while, Jisoo peeked at him out of the corner of her eyes, noticing he'd lowered his head and was staring at the floor of the balcony.

Jisoo was a bit rattled by the vast amount of tissues that littered the area.

"I'll wipe the floor later," she whispered. But he'd already raised his head, looking away.

"Jisoo," he said slowly, "I'll remember these tears."

Jisoo had already recovered from her emotional breakdown, but what he had just said made her want to weep again.

Just try to hold it.

She turned and stared at his sculpted profile.

Mr Kim, please don't say anything like that. You're just making me more upset.

Jisoo adjusted her breathing. When she spoke out again, she was calm, but still sounded a little hoarse.

"Mr.Kim, I'm sure that SMQ secretly planned this. But, given that they have the guts to do something like this, they basically have nothing to fear. And even if those men are taken to the police station, they won't confess anything.

"But this move of theirs will cost us greatly. It will make our people more sluggish, and those who don't know the truth will start to question the board of directors and start to question you. We've already lost the Ming Sheng project and the company is in turmoil. What they just did is deadly.

"But we can't raise the white flag yet. Mr.Kim, everyone is expecting something from you right now. I think the most important job for you is to make the people in Layover a team again before continuing our business. We must figure out how to let all the staff know your perseverance. Or... We can organize some inspirational CEO activities and get sentimental when necessary. We can definitely move most people by doing this..." She trailed off, because Taehyung, who had been looking ahead of himself, turned his head abruptly. He looked at her, quietly but fiercely.

"What is it?" she tried to ask.

All of a sudden, he reached out his hands to her.

Before Jisoo could react, he had already put his hands on her slightly-swollen cheeks. Jisoo's heart skipped a beat, thinking he might just want to check the condition of the injury.
