Mustering up her courage, Moon Jimin walked towards Ahn Eunwoo. Held within her hands were two gla.s.ses of wine, and wearing a smile on her face, Jimin moved one of her hands holding a gla.s.s of wine towards Eunwoo.
"Eunwoo-ah, this wine is our family"s treasure. You should try a sip; I have a feeling that you would like it," Jimin voiced out in a light-hearted tone.
Her eyes showed signs of nervousness, and nodding, Ahn Eunwoo accepted the gla.s.s from Jimin. Holding the gla.s.s elegantly, Ahn Eunwoo took a sip out of it. Taking that in, the smile on Jimin"s face widened.
Wearing a satisfied expression, Eunwoo vocalised, "Its taste doesn"t disappoint. Truly suitable to be your family"s treasure."
Moon Jimin chuckled and said, "Want to visit the wine cellar? We have more of such wines, and you can try some."
"So, the rumours I heard were not false. The Moon Family does have an impressive collection when it comes to wine," Eunwoo voiced out.
"Only after you have visited the cellar and tried the wines out would you be able to judge it properly," Jimin vocalised.
"Well then, I will give the wines a try then," Eunwoo said whilst taking another sip out of the wine.
As the two of them entered the wine cellar, Moon Jimin rubbed both of her hands together, and wearing a smile on her face, she explained, "It can get quite cold here."
Switching on the light, Moon Jimin closed the door behind her. Before them was wine shelves filled with multiple numbers of wine bottles. The gla.s.s bottles were arranged in an orderly manner depending on their age.
Turning back, Moon Jimin directed a wide smile towards Ahn Eunwoo before walking towards one of the shelves. Raising her hand, Jimin tried to take one of the wine bottles from the top row. However, Jimin was too short to reach it.
Ahn Eunwoo moved closer to Jimin and took the wine that Jimin was trying to reach. Turning back, Jimin faced Ahn Eunwoo, and at their close proximity, a blush formed on Jimin"s cheeks.
Holding out the bottle of wine towards Jimin, Eunwoo asked, "Is this what you needed?"
Shyly, Jimin pushed back the hair which fell on her forehead, and looking towards the floor, she nodded. Ahn Eunwoo took a step back, and looking slightly up, Jimin took the bottle of wine from Eunwoo. Her cheeks turned redder at the slight contact they had.
"Eunwoo-ah, you should try this bottle of wine out. This is a century old and was praised by a popular wine connoisseur," Jimin vocalised.
"Then, shouldn"t it be some precious treasure to you all? I don"t think I have the right to taste it," Eunwoo rejected.
Raising her head, Jimin smiled at Eunwoo and said, "You don"t need to be that reserved, Eunwoo-ah. We consider you as family, and as you"re a wine appreciator, I am sure all of us of the Moon Clan will be happy to share this with you."
With the wine bottle, Jimin walked towards a table and set the bottle down on it. Wine gla.s.ses were kept in an orderly manner on the table, and extending her hand towards them, Jimin took two gla.s.ses.
Placing the gla.s.ses down on the table properly, Moon Jimin was about to open the cork when Ahn Eunwoo"s hand came into her view and held the neck of the bottle. Raising her head, Jimin stared at Ahn Eunwoo, and he gave her a gentle smile.
"Let me do it," Eunwoo said.
A light blush formed on Jimin"s face as she nodded.
Standing at one corner with Chaeyoung, Lee Soohyun smiled at her. Soohyun could see how other guests had their eyes on them. Nonetheless, none of them moved closer to her.
From her line of sight, Lee Soohyun saw Han Minhyun chatting with a man at the side, and since Minhyun was not looking at her, this was the best opportunity for Soohyun to talk with Chaeyoung.
"Jiwoo Unnie, did you need anything?" Oh Chaeyoung questioned.
"Chaeyoung-ah, you don"t mind us being friends, do you? I am ready to do anything to be friends with you," Soohyun vocalised as her eyes stared at Chaeyoung with hope— her actions taking Chaeyoung aback.
As Oh Chaeyoung was about to open her mouth, Soohyun laughed and whilst showing mockery on her face, Soohyun said, "Did you really think I would say that?"
Soohyun scoffed and voiced out, "Just because I hold no interest towards Ahn Eunwoo anymore doesn"t mean I like you either."
"So what did you call me here for? To humiliate me?" Chaeyoung questioned.
"To satisfy my curiosity," Lee Soohyun explained.
"Satisfy your curiosity?" Oh Chaeyoung said with a questioning look on her face.
Soohyun nodded. Leaning against the wall, Soohyun folded her arms over her chest, and as a smile spread over her lips, Soohyun asked, "What were you doing in Minhyun"s office the other day?"
Lee Soohyun raised one of her eyebrows.
Oh Chaeyoung"s eyes widened for a second before going back to their original size, and Chaeyoung voiced out, "This is a personal matter of ours, and if you want to know the answers, you better ask Han Minhyun."
Raising her line of sight, Soohyun noticed that Han Minhyun was still talking to the man, and she was relieved. She did not need him to pop up suddenly and catch her.
The reason why she did not directly ask him was because she was afraid that he would cover up the truth. She can catch him red-handed when his and Chaeyoung"s answer doesn"t match.
If Soohyun were to be honest, she was doing this to satisfy her curiosity for the most part. If Han Minhyun truly had feelings for Oh Chaeyoung, this would make the entire mission hard for her.
"Wouldn"t it be fun if Eunwoo Oppa got to learn of this?" Lee Soohyun questioned whilst wearing a slightly threatening smirk on her face.
That is when Soohyun heard a loud sound in the room, causing her to be startled, and Soohyun jumped back.
"What was that about?" Soohyun mumbled.
