[2] Reborn [Jirose Adaption]

Chap212-No phone call

South Korea, Park Corporation.

The meeting room fell into silence due to the ringtone that lasted only for several seconds.

Ever since President Park returned from Uk, he carried a cold aura that made everyone's heart to tremble from fear. Although he was never easy to speak with, today, he could be described as extremely difficult to talk to. It really frightened everyone from approaching him; they all feared losing their jobs.

The meeting was proceeding orderly. Park Jimin sat with a cold expression as he listened to the reports from the higher management. When his phone on the desk rang, his expression finally changed slightly. However, he only turned to glance at the phone. The ringtone lasted for a short moment, ringing only once before stopping.

Everyone in the meeting room watched as nine days of chilly weather transformed into a yearlong snowstorm. Both were cold, but right now, the ice had seeped into their souls.

Kai stood by Park Jimin's side but did not dare to speak up. Earlier, when his phone lit up for a short moment, he saw that the incoming call came from Mrs. Park number.

But oddly, President Park did not move to answer the phone. The other party also hung up after an instant.

What situation was this?

Could it be that they were fighting?

"President Park, would you like to pause the meeting to return the call?" Kai quietly asked.

"There's no need, continue." Park Jimin's tone was extremely indifferent.

——

That evening at 8:00 p.m., Roseanne tidied up the things she had brought back from the condo.

She did not respond to anyone's question. Only Jennie was silent as she watched Roseanne tidy things up.

She could tell that Roseanne was clearly using the exhaustion from cleaning to vent her own emotions. Right now, it was better to leave her alone.

When she was finally done, she turned to take a shower. It was already 9:00 p.m. at night.

These days, most of the young people were used to staying up late. Soo young laid on the bed, tossing and turning as she struggled to sleep. She said, "Professor Jay is really too strict. He won't let us go out on typical nights and even arranged for a security guard to be stationed right outside our dormitory. At night, even a fly can't escape this place. I suspect that I didn't come here to study, but was instead locked into a prison..."

"Professor Jay is simply being careful. In this corporate management class, whose background isn't simple? Everyone has influential families behind them. If there were any problems, not only would his reputation be ruined, he would also struggle to be responsible for it. His decision to stop us from leaving the campus at night is understandable."

Soo young clicked her tongue. "This place is too boring. It's my first time in Uk, yet I haven't had much opportunity to try their specialty dishes. How about this, shall the four of us take turns treating each other? I'll treat everyone this Saturday. On Sunday, Shin Yuna will treat. Next Saturday, it'll be Roseanne Lin and then on Sunday..." Sooyoung hesitate for a moment before continuing her words, "Jennie Kim.We only have the weekends to eat, drink, play, and have fun!"

The moment she finished speaking, no one in the room answered. As though supporting herself, she spoke up, "I'll take your silence as an agreement! It's decided!"

Yuna finally raised her head lazily to say, "I think you really came to University to waste time. Not even a bit of your attention is placed on studying."

Soo young pursed her lips. "I attentively listen during class, all right."

Soo young then glanced at Jennie. "I think Jennie is the one who isn't interested in studying. During today's class, I saw that she was barely listening to Professor Jay. I haven't even seen her revise once either. If we really wanted to talk about the one who is poor at studying, isn't she worse than me?However what is need to study someone like Jennie while she has a mafia husband?"

Jennie indifferently glanced at her. The moment Soo young met her eyes, she subconsciously turned her head away.

"She's a martial art champion. What are you?" Yuna mocked.

Soo young did not continue speaking. Her gaze suddenly shifted in Roseanne's direction.

Jennie's fighting ability indeed caused one to shrink back and mainly she is Kim Taehyung's wife. It was better to avoid provoking her. Yuna was someone who had experienced various storms in a big company with a high managerial position; winning an argument against her would also be difficult.

As for this Roseanne Lin, she always kept quiet and appeared as though nothing was related to her.

"I say, Roseanne Lin ah, you revise the most every day. Is there such a need? Isn't it just a small, property studio? How much development can it have? Even if you learn more, you'll at most manage around thirty people. I think you're really wasting time by learning management under Professor Jay here."

Roseanne had already planned to sleep. When she heard these words, she did not turn back to look at her and only casually replied, "Even a small studio is an organization. Whether a good corporate management method is used on a company with ten thousand people or thirty people, it'll both lead to great results."

"I think what you should be doing now is to try your best to hold onto someone's big thighs. Let someone invest ten million dollars into your studio and raise the quality of your own studio. Otherwise, how could you show such a small studio to the public..."

Jennie suddenly glanced at Soo young coldly. "It's none of your business. Do you enjoy meddling in other people's business?"

Soo young found this strange: "I'm meddling in Roseanne Lin's business. How is it related to you?"

"You are fucking noisy!" Jennie expressionlessly rolled her eyes at her. "Don't you know it's time to rest now? Keep quiet, do you understand human words?"

"You! Did you just curse me?! Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you are mafia's wife! Jennie Kim..." Soo young abruptly sat up and glared at her. However, before she finish her words Jennie coldly placed her earbuds on and did not turn back to look at her.

The dorm room was extremely quiet. No one paid any attention. Soo young wanted to lose her temper but did not dare to lose it against Jennie. She turned to look at Roseanne whose back remained facing her.

She felt that this ice-cold, difficult-to-approach Jennie seemed to be casually protecting Roseanne . She was only the owner of a small studio and had no money, power, or status, yet her relations with people was actually quite good.

The room finally returned to its silence.

Roseanne closed her eyes for a while. Although it was quiet, she still could not sleep. She opened her eyes once more.

There was no rain today, but the weather had turned cold. The sound of the air-conditioning was not loud, but it was audible. In the quiet room, it was especially obvious. The 'whoosh' sounds made it difficult for one to fall asleep.

The light in the room was turned off at 9:30 p.m. Roseanne picked up her phone in the dark, opening the screen for a look.

There was still no calls or messages.

The bright screen was slightly painful on the eyes in the dark. Roseanne opened her recently dialed list and looked at the call she had made to Park Jimin during the day.

She was sure that this call had connected.

However, until now, even though several hours had already passed, her phone was still quiet.

She was sure that this phone was not spoiled and had even sent a message to check the balance on the phone's account to confirm that it was still working.

Roseanne closed the phone screen. Not long later, she turned it on again. This repeated for a long while.

There was really not even one phone call...
