Chapter 27 - ≽ ⑵⑺ ∗Mʀ. Aɴᴅ Mʀs. Kɪᴍ Iɴ Cᴏʟᴅ Wᴀʀ ≼

The Mid-Autumn Festival dinner held by Colonel Ma Dong-seok at Bang Bang Hotel came as scheduled, and Kim Taehyung took Jungkookie to attend.

Since they quarreled that day, they almost fell into a cold war, and they behaved as usual in front of Harin, but when the two were alone, they hardly talked, and Taehyung went out early and returned late every day, and they did not have much opportunity to talk.

One late night, Jungkookie didn't sleep deeply, and when she woke up, she found that the pillow was still empty, so she quietly went to the study room to check, Taehyung was immersed in going through his work files in the study.

In fact, she wanted to know what happened to the medicine, but as long as she thought of Taehyung forbidding her to use Jung's products that day, she couldn't swallow her anger, and no matter what she didn't want to talk to him first, so she went back to the room silently.

In fact, judging from the performance of Kim Taehyung in the past few days, the drug matter should not have made any progress, and she can't urge Hobi anymore, so she has to leave it like this.

❝Major General Kim!❞

❝Hello, Major General Kim ! Mrs. Kim!❞

❝Hello, Major General Kim…❞

From the moment Kim Taehyung and Jungkookie appeared at the entrance of Bang Bang Hotel, arm in arm until they entered the hotel lobby, many people came to say hello along the way. They were very respectful to Kim Taehyung, either giving a military salute or nodding and bowing their heads, showing how fierce Kim Taehyung was in the army.

After entering the banquet hall, Colonel Ma Dong-seok warmly greeted them. After a few words of pleasantries, Kim Taehyung took Jungkookie to a side table and sat down, drinking and dining while watching the pairs of men and women swaying to the music on the dance floor.

However, neither Taehyung nor Jungkookie were in the mood to really devote themselves to this banquet. After all, Jungkookie was still immersed in the cold relationship of the past few days, while Kim Taehyung…

He did not touch a drop of the red wine on the table, because with a position like his, he cannot let down his guard when it comes to such a banquet where fishes and dragons all mixed.

During his years as a military officer, he offended many people, and many people might want to take advantage of such a large banquet to take his life.

If he was the only one here tonight, it would be easy to deal with, but he also brought Jungkookie, so he had to be more vigilant.

Putting down the knife and fork, Kim Taehyung swept a glance at the newly recruited Jimine who was standing under a pillar not far behind Kookie, waiting for orders.

She has two tasks. If something happens, she can protect Kookie when he can't get away.

Her background is as innocent as she said and what he found.

❝Major General, I have searched the entire hotel with my men, and we haven't found any suspicious people yet. There are also people deployed outside the hotel. Do you have anything else to order?❞ A confidant hurried to the side of Kim Taehyung and whispered with his head lowered.

❝No, you wait here.❞ Taehyung instructed lightly.

Jungkookie brought a mouthful of broccoli to her mouth.

Kim Taehyung seemed to be so busy that he even had to do his tasks while attending a festival banquet.

❝Also.❞ The confidant bent over and continued to whisper in Kim Taehyung's ear, ❝You asked me to find all the flowers. I have put them in the car. When do you need to pick them up?❞

Hearing this, Kim Taehyung subconsciously glanced at Jungkookie, who happened to be caught by her. He quickly averted his eyes and without changing his face, he whispered to his confidant, ❝Put it in the other car first, follow us on the way back. I'll pick it up when I get back to the mansion.❞

❝Yes.❞ The confidant nodded, then went out to move the flowers.

❝What's wrong?❞ Jungkookie was a little concerned about Major General's glance just now and after a moment of agitation, she couldn't help but ask.

❝It's nothing.❞ Taehyung lowered his eyes, took a bite of his steak, and then asked the waiter on the side to bring him a glass of boiled water.

❝…❞ Although Jungkookie hadn't eaten a few bites of food, she already felt full and slowly put down her knife and fork, feeling a little lost in her heart.

The way Taehyung had looked at her seemed to have a soft light in his eyes, so she thought he had something good to tell her.

At this moment, Nori, who was wearing a bright purple mermaid dress, and carrying a small clutch, stepped on delicate high heels and walked towards them with her waist swinging. She only gave Jungkookie a symbolic glance, and then gave Taehyung a charming smile, inviting him with a seductive voice, ❝I wonder if Major General Kim can appreciate a face and dance with this little girl?❞
