9 Wow, This Kid

Well after the whole ordeal with protecting himself, Taehyung felt that his day was going great.

He was still at the gallery because he was waiting for his special client. Taehyung had Mal look into where the phone call came from. She managed to trace it back to an entertainment company.

"It's owned by some dude named Jung. Huh, sounds legit." Taehyung muttered as he looked at the stuff Mal sent to him.

Because of what happened with the weird guy who tried to shoot him earlier, Taehyung felt a bit off. Normally small gangs try to act all tough in his gallery. but they're normally pretty easy to handle. Just a small show of strength and then they're running with their tails between their legs.

'It's so hard to make clean money these days.' Taehyung as he looked at a graph showing the percentage of gangs in the area on his computer. All the little dots on Taehyung's screen that were surrounding his gallery are gangs that he had already dealt with.

Taehyung thought about the main reason why he works so hard and a soft smile formed on his lips. 'Ah, I want to go home to my princess.'

Taehyung spun circles in his spinning chair for a bit as he daydreams all the places he would like to take Jeni.

It was at this time when Mal called him on the intercom.

"Sir, a Mr. Jeon is here for you?" She sounded a bit confused. This was understandable because Taehyung had told her to wait for Mr. Jung.

"Mal asks him if he works for Hope Ent," Taehyung said. Mal answered back positively.

All right, let him in then," Taehyung said reluctantly. Soon the door to his office opened and a familiar face walked in, well sorta familiar.

Taehyung remembered the man. It was the singer at the bar from last night. ' I think Jeni said that she saw him on Tv today? If I remember correctly his name was Jungkook', Taehyung thought curiously.

Jungkook took a seat before Taehyung's desk before looking at him carefully. ' I assume that he recognizes me.'

"Well, I didn't think that I'd see you again so soon. Mr. Jeon was it?" Taehyung said to Jungkook. Jungkook only nodded blankly. His eyes were trained to Taehyung's face as if he were committing every feature to memory.

Taehyung chuckled softly seeing the daze that Jungkook was in. Realizing that Taehyung was laughing at him, Jungkook looked at his legs and blushed.

"So, Mr. Jeon would you like a picture?" Teahyung asked whilst looking through the paperwork that Mal had prepared for him.

"A picture of you?" Jungkook blurted.

Taehyung's hand that was flipping the papers froze. ' Wow, this dude is bold.' Taehyung cleared his throat before speaking. "My apologies but pictures of me aren't for sale here."

Hearing that Jungkook looked a bit disappointed.

' Why does he look so disappointed? It's not that's why he's here. Right?' Taehyung was confused by the expression on Jungkook's face. And proceeded to clarify.

"You are here for business right, Mr. Jeon?"

Jungkook seemed to wake up from whatever was going on in his head. As he straightened himself up, his whole demeanor seemed to change.

He seemed more imposing. 'Wow, it's like he's a different person.' Taehyung thought.

He cleared his throat before speaking.

"Yes. I came because of Singularity." Jungkook said calmly.

Hearing the name of the photo that he was asking for, Taehyung lifted a brow in surprise. But he gestured for Jungkook to continue speaking.

"I don't wish to buy it. I simply wish to rent it for a period of time." Jungkook explained.

Taehyung slowly nodded his head at Jungkook's words and pondered over them. 'Ah, why is this kid here giving me complicated work do.' Taehyung complained inwardly.

He assessed the man before him a bit before reaching over for the intercom.

"Mal please bring the documents for cases #369 and #547."

Taehyung looked Jungkook in the eyes. "Sir, you do realize that Singularity is worth more than $245 million?" He asked in all seriousness.

Jungkook's eyes widened at the price. Taehyung scoffed inwardly at him. ' The kid probably didn't even know the value that Singularity held overseas is far greater.'

Taehyung watched as Jungkook looked at him with a tinge of awkwardness.

"Um, so what would the estimate for the deposit be?" Jungkook asked sheepishly.

Taehyung cracked a slight smile.

"Before worrying about the deposit. You have to go through some security checks, and also have a bit of paperwork that is required." Taehyung spoke as if this were a simple process.

Jungkook nodded at his words. He thought that made sense due to the worth of Singularity.

"Well then, that should be it then?" Taehyung asked. Without even paying attention as to whether or not Jungkook answered him, he let Mal know to prepare all the information and documents that Jungkook would need.

When Taehyung finally looked back at Jungkook, he was a bit taken by his childlike eyes. 'So clean and pure. Just like Jeni's.' He thought.

Taehyung asked Jungkook to wait in the reception room for Mal to bring him the necessary documents.

Soon after he left his office Taehyung turned to his computer and looked at the case files he requested.

Looking at the number on the screen Taehyung felt a bit baffled. "What has Jimin been doing?" He couldn't help but ask aloud.

With a sigh, Taehyung wrapped up all his business in his office and prepared to head home to see his little princess.

Taehyung stepped out to the reception room to say bye to Mal. Oddly Jungkook was still there.

"Mr. Jeon, are you intending to spend the night here?" Taehyung asked quizzically.

Jungkook appeared shocked to see Taehyung before him. Taehyung watched in amusement as the man rushed to stand before him.

"Ah, um, Ms. Mal told me that not all the documents are here because it's been a while since there was a case like this," Jungkook said nervously.

'Is he nervous over me? How cute,' Taehyung thought.

"Well, then according to the procedure she is to send you off and alert you when the papers are ready," Taehyung said.

Taehyung stared at Jungkook with a bit of skepticism. The building held all sorts of sensitive information, and with all that happened today, it was normal for him to be wary.

Jungkook's cheeks held a slight tinge of pink as he looked at Taehyung. His blunt words had caused the younger man to feel a bit shy.

"I, um," Jungkook stuttered through his awkwardness.

"I wanted to ask... if Mr.Kim had a personal phone number?" Jungkook drew out his words slowly as he spoke.

Taehyung assessed the man in front of him. He blatantly trailed his eyes over the man's build. He could see the man's nervousness as he awaited a response.

"Ah, well if you have any concerns regarding the picture then you may contact Mal." Taehyung gently rejected the man in front of him.

'Wow, this kid is bold. Asking out a man he just did business with.' Taehyung clicked his tongue as he said goodbye to the man before and headed home.
