On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Xuefu, who did not receive a response, left Seoul and returned to Taipei with a belly full of gloomy resentment. Jessica also returned to her home on the same day, and although Ah Jiu wanted her to stay longer, and Krystal kept her, Jessica insisted on going back. Ah Jiu understood that she didn't want to be discovered by Krystal for a long time, but because of this, he felt more guilty about Jessica.

The family has returned to the mode of life of the three people, as usual, there is nothing different, it seems that all three people have become accustomed to this pattern. IU would go back and forth to the company every day, as if she was preparing some kind of single or something, while Krystal was busy learning about finance, and after losing money in futures last time, nearly two months have passed, and quietly, she has earned back all the money she lost.

Upon learning that Taeyeon had returned to Seoul, Ah Jiu immediately called to make an appointment. But Taeyeon refuses on the grounds that she is too busy preparing for the birthday party, Ah Jiu doesn't know that IU has sent her a text message, so she takes it seriously, so she doesn't bother her and makes a phone call on time every day. He thinks this is supporting Taeyeon's work, but Taeyeon doesn't think so. She was even more sad, because Ah Jiu's performance was very similar to Sunny's prophecy, and sure enough, he had less and less time to accompany her.

Taeyeon has always been weak in the face of emotional matters. She couldn't refuse Ah Jiu's call, and she didn't dare to question him on the phone, asking him why he didn't come to see her, her choice was to be patient, forbearance, and try to pretend that she didn't know anything, even if she was so sad that she was about to cry, she didn't show a trace, Ah Jiu didn't notice Taeyeon's abnormality, and she didn't realize how sad Taeyeon was.

Actually, he can't be blamed for this, he hasn't seen Taeyeon these days, and he doesn't have much time at home. There are all kinds of signs that the showdown is not far away, so Ah Jiu has been a little busy these days, and he has to make some preparations to try to make sure that it doesn't leak.

On the third day after the new year, Ji Eun-sung's 'Incheon faction' began a provocation at the behest of Han Chang-wook, and on the other hand, he was constantly urging the 'Reaper team' to leave early, wanting to finish the matter before March 15. He is also helpless, the situation on the peninsula is volatile, and the initiative is completely in the hands of the north, which recently issued a statement that it decided to resume nuclear tests, and in response, the South Korean side decided to hold military exercises in mid-March. The American father also sent an aircraft carrier battle group to help, and then the whole of South Korea will be exposed to the eyes of the international community. He wasn't sure what the Reaper would do, so he had to keep the risk under control.

The atmosphere became more tense day by day, and the confrontation between the bikers and the Incheon faction continued. Both sides know that a battle is inevitable, but at the same time, they also understand that whoever makes the first move will have their hole cards exposed faster. Although Ji Encheng and Ah Jiu secretly communicate with each other, he may not have the idea of replacing him, and Ah Jiu will not trust Chi Encheng 100%, he always understands that all agreements or cooperation are based on strength. Without reciprocal strength, contracts written in black and white are also waste paper, on the contrary, there is always a rhetoric that reverses black and white.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed, and the strings in the heads of both sides have become tighter, and a little spark may cause a fire.

Both sides are restrained and waiting.

And just like that, the time came in March. At this moment, there are still two days left before Taeyeon's birthday party.

……

Unlike the tense atmosphere outside, the home is still as warm as ever. Ah Jiu is a man who doesn't bring things out with him back home, especially after discovering that Krystal has become more disgusted with the things about the bikers, and he is more careful in this regard. Krystal has been angry because of the New Year, and wanted to find a chance to lose his temper after the New Year, but seeing Ah Jiu so cautious, he couldn't bear it. But her attitude has not softened, as long as Ah Jiu is doing things related to the biker party, she will not have a good face, otherwise she will be out of sight, Ah Jiu is helpless and helpless, except for sighing, she can't do anything.

Seeing that it was Taeyeon's birthday party, in the past two weeks, he and Taeyeon have met a total of three times, except for one time when they had a meal together for a longer time, the other two times were met at the venue of the birthday party, Taeyeon attaches great importance to the opportunity to meet fans on his birthday, from rehearsals to stage settings, and even lighting and sound. Ah Jiu couldn't help, so he stood by the side in a daze and watched for a while before leaving, not realizing that Taeyeon was deliberately playing petty. Maybe it's because her little temperament is too inconspicuous, and Ah Jiu is already sluggish in this regard, twice in a row, Ah Jiu didn't even feel it.

Taeyeon was even more sad because of this, she felt that Ah Jiu didn't care about her anymore, otherwise how could she not even coax her? Thinking that he had given birthday gifts early, he probably couldn't accompany him on his birthday, Taeyeon's tears were like carrying them in his pocket, and no one around him could drop two drops, and he slept with tears in his eyes every day at night. Sunny doesn't share the same room with her anymore, and after crying for so many days, no one even notices.

If Ah Jiu knew Taeyeon's thoughts, he would definitely cry out for wrongdoing. Of course, he doesn't forget Taeyeon's birthday, in fact he has already prepared to surprise Taeyeon. He doesn't want Taeyeon to treat him as the kind of man who is full of machismo and doesn't allow his other half to work, so although he is macho in his heart, he also restrains himself, and even expects Taeyeon to say two nice words to praise him when he understands his mind.

In the past ten days, the arrangement has been almost arranged. Now wait for Han Changxu to make a move, and then a series of countermeasures can be launched. After all, this is South Korea, and it doesn't take advantage of it, although it is not completely impossible to take the initiative, but the cost of that will increase accordingly, so there is no need.

If Han Changxu doesn't do it, Ah Jiu will have nothing to do. So for the past two days, he has been walking between his home and Jessica's house, going out to accompany Jessica, occasionally going to Sunny's to sit, drink, 'eat and feed', and live a comfortable life. Although I didn't really do anything, my feelings grew unconsciously.

Love may not have arrived yet, but it is also the state of AUO above.
