[2] Reborn [Jirose Adaption]

Chap264-Slap her in the face

In an instant her heart was seen through, she really felt some humiliation.

Watching Roseanne's fearless expression, Soo young gathered the following:

Complacency, arrogance, cockiness, and the sense that someone was supporting her provided her with confidence.

Who else aside from Park Jimin could be the one supporting Roseanne Lin behind the scenes?

Roseanne did not turn to look at Soo young's expression. Instead, she picked up the thermos cup on her desk and opened the lid. Through the hot steam rising up, she quietly watched as the bell chimed and Professor Jay entered the classroom.

Soo young finally returned to her seat. However, her gaze would occasionally flit toward Roseanne's turtleneck.

Even though her collar was high, with an intentional gaze, Soo young would occasionally catch the appearance of the hidden love marks.

Someone like President Park who appeared cold, low-key, and difficult to approach, would he really... be that intense?

That night, Roseanne did not agree to Yuna's invitation to shop together. When she left University after class, she saw Ryujin's car parked outside.

It had been several months since she saw Ryujin. Ryujin appeared as per normal. Her hair had been trimmed slightly, and she was still thin and dressed in black. She seemed to be capable and clean as she stood by the car.

Roseanne said she wanted to head to the department store to shop. Ryujin accompanied her but did not speak the entire way. It was as though she had reverted back to when she had first started working by Roseanne's side.

Roseanne only occasionally asked if the clothes she was buying looked good. After receiving Ryujin's short opinion, she did not ask more.

At 6.00 p.m., Ryujin sent Roseanne to the restaurant near Park Jimin's branch company.

When she arrived, he was already sitting there. It seemed like he had been waiting for quite a while.

She wasn't sure if he had heard or sensed her, but before she approached, he was looking up.

Their eyes met. Roseanne watched as the man's ink-black eyes appeared to light up like stars with a smile. He then stood up.

She approached as he tugged the chair out for her. He then removed her coat and took her bag from her, placing it by the side. His low voice concealed his doting smile: "Didn't we agree to meet at 5.30 p.m.? Why are you late? After coming back from America, it seems like Ryujin's work efficiency has yet to come back."

Roseanne raised her head to look at the man's attractive jawline: "Earlier, I went with Ryujin to shop at a department store. There were several attractive pieces, so it took a while to try them on."

"The new clothes are in the car?"

"I didn't buy them. After trying them on, I felt that they didn't appear much different from what I usually wear, so I didn't buy anything." Roseanne sat down comfortably and received the menu from the waiter. While looking at it, she said, "You've been in Uk for so many days, most of the time, you've been cooking personally at home. It's fine if we eat out occasionally, but I still prefer the food you make."

After ordering, she picked up a glass of a warm beverage for a sip. When the man sat down, he said with his clear and composed voice, "Someone is following you."

"How did you realize it?" Roseanne did not turn back for a look. From the moment she left University, she had already sensed it. She easily guessed who it was and decided not to pay much attention to the person. After casually shopping with Ryujin and driving here, the person was actually still following her.

"Such a common way of following someone. Her car is parked right behind Ryujin's. Who is it?" Park Jimin calmly asked.

Roseanne placed her cup down and smiled lightly: "It should be Soo young. She suspects that I've seduced you, a married man. She most likely wants to take some pictures for evidence to threaten me. Oh, right, and perhaps she'll look for you to see if she can gain any benefits."

Park Jimin appeared amused as he watched her impatient expression: "The difference in the quality of intelligence between the school and the workplace is truly worlds apart. You sure are capable of enduring."

"What else can I do but tolerate. You were right. Being too serious with this sort of child's play will lower my intelligence." Roseanne watched the man's smiling eyes and pursed her lips to say, "There are only two more weeks to go. After enduring University's school anniversary and one more exam, I can return to South Korea."

Park Jimin raised his brows: "You plan on attending the school anniversary?"

"I've never participated in something like this when I was a student. Since there's the opportunity for it now, I'll attend. Earlier, I was planning to buy the clothes for the anniversary. I don't want to be too high profile, but I don't want to be too casual either. After looking for half a day, I still couldn't find anything suitable."

The man watched her and smiled lightly: "I'll be returning to South Korea tomorrow night. I'll accompany you to shop today?"

"It's all right, there's no rush. I can just pick something from my closet." Roseanne saw from the corner of her eyes that Soo young's car was still parked outside. The window was lowered to reveal a small gap. Roseanne suspected that she was secretly taking photos and did not turn back for a closer look. She picked up her cup and blew at the hot beverage: "How is it on my Dad's side?"

After seeing Kai the day before, Lin Mason indeed gave Roseanne a call. However, he only said a few words of concern before hanging up. Right now, Lin Momo's location could not be confirmed. It was strange that there was no news from her, especially if she really had not met with an accident. However, Park Jimin had clearly checked that Momo did not board the flight.

It was unreasonable for someone to simply disappear, especially right when the flight met with an accident.

In this situation, it was unsuitable for Roseanne to make too many calls to inquire. After all, even though Roseanne was not the instigator for Momo's trip abroad, she was still the main reason.

"He is still waiting for further news. His emotions are much more stable than you imagine. There's no need to worry."

"My father is good at suppressing and concealing his emotions. Otherwise, it wouldn't take me so long to doubt my own birth."

At this moment, the waiter brought a bowl of borscht onto the table. Park Jimin scooped the soup into a small bowl and placed it before Roseanne, his deep-set eyes turning warm: "There's no need to inquire too much into everything. The most important thing is to stabilize your own mentality."

Roseanne watched his handsome face and indicated toward outside: "If that mentally-ill little lady brings the photos she has taken to threaten you, a married man, or to threaten me, if such a senseless thing were to happen, what do you think I should do?"

Roseanne did not wish to affect the mood of their dinner with his father's issues, so she took the initiative to change the topic.

The man reached out to caress her hair with a low chuckle. "Will you let her regret the past three months of having her nose in the air, or will you take the official status of 'Mrs. Park' to slap her in the face?"

Roseanne took a sip of her soup and replied composedly, "That will depend on the degree to which she is asking for death."

I think Bts deserve better. Despite of it, Doja is also good.
