98 Adult Talk (1/2)

”Okay, then. Let's go. But I wouldn't be able to go down all the way.” Han Jie said, apparently satisfied with whatever she had found in Wang Jin's eyes.

Wang Jin smiled. ”Of course not. I wouldn't want to walk all the way down with these shoes either.” Wang Jin said as she did a power pose, her intention was to intimidate Han Jie. And maybe, just maybe, this Han girl would see how better she is for Suzuki Kyou.

Han Jie laughed at the pose and pulled gently on Wang Jin's arm.

”Come on, let's go.” Han Jie said, still laughing.

Wang Jin waved at the other members of the room and gave a small, coy, and very seductive smile before strutting out of the room like a runway model. Han Jie was slightly blocked from the view of those behind them since she was shorter.

Bai Min rolled his eyes before scowling fiercely at the closed door. The women just disappeared behind.

Han Jun face was a blank mask until he saw Bai Min's face.

”You are acting childish,” Han Jun commented mildly. His eyes still on Bai Min.

Han Jun shrugged before turning away from the door, his fierce scowl still in place.

”Of course. And she's made one out of you too.” Bai Min said as he stared at Han Jun.

Though Han Jun's face didn't divulge anything now, but it had when Wang Jin had looked at them trying to be flirty. The brief look of disdain had been long enough on his face for Bai Min to recognize it.

Han Jub shrugged at Bai Min's words.

He tilted his head, ”That woman… Has an aura of a snake,” Han Jun said bluntly.

Bai Min smirked, 'You can feel it but still hospitable with the person?' He thought to himself, unable to voice that out as he was afraid that Han Jun would get mad. The man seldom talks to him like this.

So Bai Min nodded, before rubbing his forehead. He felt like having a headache and pretend it is so worse that he can get a month of leave.

”Han Jie is stupid to even have a friend like that,” Han Jun whispered softly. He honestly hoped Han Jie was safe. They might not get along well, but she was still his cousin, even when she, most of the time, bothers him to relieve her boredom.

”There should be a man on every floor.” Han Jun added before fishing out his phone and started tapping nonstop.

”Han Family security?” Bai Min asked. He wasn't surprised, though.

While Wang Jin had prattled on and annoyed both men with her voice, and suggested for Han Jie to walk down with her, Han Jun had already thought of this assignment for the members of their security teams. One man on each floor of the thirteen floors down from the Han family suite. Each man was to be positioned at the fire escape entrance.

Han Jun nodded, ”Not many, but they are there still. Suzuki Kyou's assigned security could be mobilized too.” He said after giving a small nod to acknowledge Bai Min question.

”Yeah. For security,” Han Jun said, still looking at his phone.

”Oy Junjun, are you sure the security is for safety or make sure that the Han family can't run away?” Bai Min asked before he managed to process his line of thoughts. 'Shoot… I hope he did not notice that what I said sounds weird…'

Han Jun frowned, ”Yes. It is for everyone's safety.”

Bai Min sighed in relief. Since Han Jun looked like someone in a good mood, then he will not spoil it.

That is the truth. Han Jun, in reality, is really in a good mood. Between all three of the Han family staying at the suite, they had only three guards, confident of the hotel security. Han Jun was grateful for Suzuki Kyou to allow them such privilege.

They settled in and waited for the news from either of the sisters.

***

Wang Jin regretted asking Han Jie to walk her down. The girl was silent, and the conversation was barely civil.

Han Jie was breathing heavily, possibly because she was still not feeling well, but Wang Jin didn't care. Her only wish was that she had worn better shoes than her heels.

Wang Jin looked at Han Jie's shoes and shuddered in disgust. Flip flops. She barely controlled her expression of disgust.

”Won't you tell me what's bothering you?” Wang Jin asked after their conversation had trickled off.

Han Jie jerked from her thoughts, startled from by Wang Jin's words.

”What?” Han Jie asked without looking at Wang Jin and absently concentrated on the next step.

Wang Jin curled up her lip in anger. She didn't care if Han Jie was going to see, but she was getting mad.
