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

Chapter 33(Walker of the City)

Despite the normalcy of the news, it was overheard by both Sehun and Haein.

Sehun just sneered at the news.

The rule of marketing had always remained the same: compete until there was only one survivor left in the end. Perhaps Taehyung’s first trap had worked, but the competition in marketing wasn’t about clever, temporary tricks—it required true ability.

And that was what SMQ had been best at over the years.

Rumor had it that Mr Gong Yoo had held some meetings with his staff, inspected the shops, and even had some spies in SMQ. It looked like they were getting ready for a fight with SMQ.

Good, we shall see.

At this stage, it didn’t occur to Sehun that he’d already started seeing people like Mr Gong Yoo as his direct competitor. He also didn’t realize in the slightest that he had been overlooked by Taehyung and Jisoo up.

Yet it was a different situation in New Bori’s president’s office.

Jung Haein’s assistant, Yuan Ling, handed him over a report. “Lately the conflict between SMQ and Layover has been pretty aggressive. Aida even started a special department. Here are the department functions and the list of staff members.”

After flipping through some pages, Jung Haein grinned. “Concerning our preparation for the new brand and bringing down Vinda, do you think that soldier pretending to be weak would realize?”

Yuan Jun was caught off guard.

Ever since the fight with Vinda, the term “the soldier pretending to be weak” was used by the president to refer to the well-known Kim Taehyung in the industry.

“Yes,” he replied.

Jung Haein nodded. “So he must have a solution. Under the calm guise, and with an air of pretension, he’s even sent his trusted employee Jisoo to start a marketing department. Huh.. so fake. He must have a plan for me, ready to set me up somewhere.”

Yuan Jun smiled. “It’s not easy to set you up, sir. But you can’t let him get away with it. President Jung, should we put more pressure on them in the market to find out?”

After some consideration, Jung Haein shook his head. “Not necessary. We shall just wait.”

Glaring at the blue sky outside the window, he calmly continued, “Think about this. If an elephant is in a fight with a sheep, would the elephant chase after the sheep? There’s a possibility it could fall into the sheep’s trap. So, of course, he’s going to wait for the sheep to go under his feet and then step on it. ”

...

It was a nice and sunny Saturday with only a few light clouds dotting the bright blue sky. Early in the morning, Jisoo was exercising in her bedroom when her phone started to ring.

“I’m downstairs,” Taehyung said, short and brief.

Huh?

With her phone in her hand, Jisoo walked to the balcony. She saw under the morning light and through the shadows of the trees on the sidewalk that Taehyung was leaning against his car, holding his phone and staring up at her.

“Come down, I’ll take you on a hunt for the longbow.”

The weather was still freezing, a light layer of frost soon started to appear on the car’s windows.

Taehyung wore the same outfit he’d worn in America, but his dark grey fleece had been traded for one in off-white. His eyebrows looked extra striking on his sharp face. Hands on the wheel, his fingers were long and slender. With less soldier-like coldness, the vibe of a noble rich son coming from him was becoming stronger.
