Those green eyes of him radiated an strong atmosphere that even Jinhee was able to sense it, and it made one be at wary of him. Even though Jinhee found his features quite familiar, the green eyes of his was different; She had never seen them before.
No matter how ridiculous her assumption was, she left that those eyes of his was not similar to the ones she had seen in the birthday party last time. It made almost made Jinhee think that this male was someone different.
"Congratulations on your acquisition, Mr. Shin. As my father was troubled with his health recently, he was not able to attend. Nonetheless, he conveys his congrat," Jaehyun politely spoke out.
Jinhee's eyes stared at the middle-aged couple in front of her and recognized them. Shin Changmin and Shin Sekyung was a loving who treated Jaehyun like their own son.
In her last life, Jinhee visited their house number of times with Jaehyun and found the couple extremely hospitable. Since Jinhee was Jaehyun's girlfriend, they were welcoming to her, and unlike many, they accepted her without any objections.
"I hope your father on a well recovery. Who's the lovely lady beside you?" Changmin asked in a light-hearted tone.
"Lee Jinhee, my classmate," Jaehyun concisely answered.
After a respectful 45° bow towards them, Jinhee spoke out, "I'm Lee Jinhee."
"Come over at our house with Jinhee at Sunday. I'd like to know more about that girl that managed to capture your heart," Sekyung voiced out.
"I'll be there, Ms. Shin."
Surprise overcame Jinhee as she heard Jaehyun's words; He didn't deny Shin Sekyung's last sentence. Jaehyun was not the one to let someone he respected misunderstand without a reason, and with how things went in this life, it was not possible for Jaehyun to fall for her.
"The dance will begin in a while. You two should enjoy," Changmin spoke out.
