Chapter Six



Chapter Six

Usually, Kim Jun Su didn’t have to wait for any call to come. People who knew him were the one that actually do the waiting. This time, it was different. He was waiting for a call.

While waiting for his call, he started doing some research for his assignment. Something about the law in business administration. He was doing it half heartedly. It was his first time to be involved personally in human resources. He was never the one doing unnecessary stuff like waiting for a girl. Today afternoon, he had waited for her.

Which was very odd to Kim Jun Su.

Jun Su felt like smacking himself silly. She may turn down the offer. She may need money desperately but she still may turn down the offer.

The phone rang suddenly.

He was surprised.

He waited for the phone to ring a few times before actually walking to it. The continuous ring of his phone showed the urgency of the caller.

It might actually be her.

He picked up the phone.

“Umm…. I know this sound so weird. But are you the one waiting for me by my car this afternoon?” she asked.

It was her.



Li Yin pressed the hang up button. Surprisingly, it was easy. He had just asked her to do some modeling for him. She was required to only stay in a pose for a while like an hour or two when he got the sketch down. Then, she could leave because he assured her that he just needs to draw fiction onto the sketch he had.

Here comes the tricky part.

He had to draw in his apartment alone with her.

How much she need the money?
She really couldn’t answer that and she couldn’t really make a decision.

In the end, she had promised to meet with him in school cafeteria for more discussion. In the end, she had no sleep at all, thinking and trying to remember his name again.




Lee Li Yin was waiting for her lunatic to come in a corner, well hidden from the noisy mouths of her college mates. Kim Jun Su deliberately came late for about five minutes. Her face was drawn into a face of relief when she saw him walking towards her.

She must have need money desperately.

Jun Su smiled at the poor girl and she quickly turned a shade redder. Jun Su liked this girl. She was such a naivet�.

It reminded him of her mother.

Li Yin quickly stood up and greeted him in a tone totally different from her tone yesterday. She was actually trying to talk politely. Jun Su took a seat and apologised for lack of punctuality.

She then said it was ok, meaning as long as he was here, it was ok.
What kind of job you mean?
She asked cautiously, trying not to sound so desperate.

Modeling.

Does it had to be your house?
She asked.
I mean wouldn’t it be more appropriate in a studio.
She tried to cover up her awkwardness.

Jun Su smirked, wondering how she would react when she heard what was actually in his mind.

I am planning to draw a portrait of you, nude. You want to do it in a studio?
Jun Su shrugged.
He then said that it was fine with him.

Li Yin looked like her soul had just been sucked out of her shell. It seemed that she had to turn down the job.

She would never let a total stranger to see her naked. All kind of disgusting thoughts went into her brain and preoccupied her brain momentarily.

Li Yin suddenly stood up and her action pushed her chair down. Her hand pushed her cup into instability and the drink spilled. Despite all this havoc, she could only stare at Jun Su. Jun Su wondered whether she was aware that she was getting all the attention now.

Jun Su just continued observing her.

Mister, that would be a no.
She refused flatly.

Jun Su was a bit surprised. He was going to offer a lump sum that would be sufficient enough for her to make her to jump into bed with him and he didn’t ask for that. He just asked her to model for him for arts. He needed her because he doesn’t simply draw anyone.

Just people that interest him.

She practically stormed off with her shirt, stained with her drink. Jun Su looked around and quickly saw his audiences’ eyes reverted back somewhere as but not to him. It appeared to him that the new girl and he, the introvert were about to be their topic soon.

He wondered how Li Yin would react.
