An exciting expression takes place on Jaehyun's face after hearing Donghyuck's suggestion. “Oh I love rich nights.”

“That's my Jae.” Donghyuck rasps and Jaehyun giggles in blush.

Soon their waiter comes with their order and Jaehyun already loves the looks of it. The taste was definitely going to be heavenly.

“Here are your drinks, Sir.” The waiter named Johnny says as he fills their glasses and serves them with some snacks on the side. “Please let me know if there's anything else you want. Enjoy.” He adds while leaving.

Both Jaehyun and Donghyuck lift their glasses up and conflict with each other's. They then continued sipping on their drinks while talking sexily of course.

And the sight puts a smile on Taeil's face. Seeing Jaehyun having his time and enjoying himself. Maybe Donghyuck was cocky but maybe he was indeed right for Jaehyun.

“It feels good to see your friend happy, ain't it?”

The question takes Taeil out of his thoughts and makes him realise that he was also having his time with someone. Someone none other than Kim Dongyoung.

Taeil smiles at the man and nods in response. Dongyoung smiles along as he glances at the VIP area and continues speaking. “But guess your friend isn't really happy with you being with me.”

Now that remark by Dongyoung puts Taeil in awe. “Oh no, no. It's not like that. He isn't unhappy. And actually doesn't dislike you even. Even all those words he said to you, he just vaguely said them without thinking much. Jaehyun is not really a bad person. It's just, he just values money a lot since everything works on it and just wants the same for me. I hope you are not mad at him.”

Dongyoung shakes his head. “Don't worry. I'm not. He's partially right about the money part. And besides, I'm actually thankful for him because it's him who helped me with spotting you. Yeah, he was the first being I could notice in this big crowded place. He somewhat looked so unique amongst all and then my eyes got the chance to land you.”

The clarification makes Taeil chuckle as he adds, “I am not surprised actually. It's true. He outshines everyone. He's just like that.”

“Hmm… By the way, what types of guys do you like? I mean as you said about your friend, he likes rich guys. So… Do you also prefer someone with…”

“No. I don't have any such preferences. I just like it, sweet and simple. Even this fancy dress I'm wearing, it was brought by Jae and he cried his heart out just to make me wear it. I just like someone who is honest, kind and nice by nature. That's all it matters. Being rich isn't even a thing I think. One is rich for real if they're rich from the inside.”

“So you think if you like me?” Dongyoung nonchalantly asks and he would actually regret it but not after witnessing the extreme blush on Taeil's face.

And Taeil was honestly at a loss of words but thankfully to save him from this situation, the bartender comes and takes their attention. “Good eve, Sir. What can I serve you?”

“What would you like, Taeil?” Dongyoung asks.

“Actually, I'm just fine. I don't want anything. Just talking to you is what I needed, I think to be honest.” And now it was Dongyoung's turn to blush but of course, man being the man he was, he didn't let his blush take over him.

“That is what I needed as well and hence I want to treat you for filling my need.”

Wow, that sounds somewhat tempting.

“Oh, ahaha. I see. Well I guess then, just any simple wine is fine.” Taeil finally says to lessen the awkwardness.

Dongyoung motions to the bartender and he starts making their drinks. And it actually didn't take him much to do his work as he presented their drink in a blink. But it could be possible that it was just simple wine so it didn't take him much time.

Though, after tasting the drink, it didn't seem to be that simple. It didn't taste simple at all. It rather tasted like that tequila nineteen forty two that he had drunk once with Jaehyun. But it's been a long since that time so he could be misunderstanding probably.

They talk randomly as they consume their drinks. And Taeil gets to know Dongyoung's characteristics better so that it makes him fall for the said man even more. Though, one thing that he didn't reveal was his profession. But Taeil didn't insist much on it. He just thought to say sometimes that it was fine if he didn't even work at all. But he didn't want to make the other feel bad or embarrassed. So he just left it at that. Dongyoung must tell himself when he'll feel like it.

“Anything else?” The bartender asks and once again Dongyoung interrogatively looks at Taeil.

“No, please. I'm seriously full now, Doyoung.”

Dongyoung chuckles and shifts his face towards the staff. “No, Sir. Thank you.” The bartender nods at the answer and Taeil remembers that it was turn to pay.

“Umm, Doyoung. If you don't mind, I can pay for the drinks…” He suggests and the latter frowns in confusion.

“That isn't needed, Taeil. We're fine, aren't we, Sir?” Dongyoung motions to the bartender and the latter nods while cleaning the classes. He then excuses himself to serve other customers without even taking any type of payment from them. And now Taeil was actually feeling bad for Dongyoung because it indeed seems that these staff serve him for free because of pity.

“Well, Taeil, I was thinking if I can drop you home after here because, you stayed till so late because of me and it won't be safe for you to go alone at this time so, I think I must take the responsibility to keep you home safe. But it's fine with whatever you decide. Because somehow, I'm also just a stranger. I don't deserve your trust by any means.”

“Gosh, Doyoung. Did you even breathe? It's nothing like that. You're not a stranger by any means. I got to know you pretty much and actually, I think I like you already.”
