There were a few spare chairs in the room. Jungkook pulled one over and thrust it in between Taehyung and Yukhei. "Excuse me. Let me add a seat here."

Taehyung stayed seated and did not move. He pretended to not hear him. Without a word, Jungkook bent over and lifted Taehyung's chair along with him.

Taehyung: "......"

After moving Taehyung a little to the side, there was now an empty spot.

He properly slotted the chair in and squeezed into the seat. The space was too small and Jungkook was someone of a larger build. After he sat down, the three of them were tightly packed together. Yukhei could feel his leg pressed against Jungkook's leg. 

Yukhei quietly, shifted a little to the side.

Taehyung's good mood was completely ruined by Jungkook. He leaned towards him and in a lowered voice, asked, "What are you doing here?"

Jungkook turned and murmured into his ear. "I was also invited here like you."

"Don't you normally hate dinner gatherings like this the most? Why are you so out of character today?"

"I'm in a good mood today."

Taehyung rolled his eyes. In his mind, he tried to guess Jungkook's possible motives.

One by one, the dishes were served. Jungkook once again leaned next to Taehyung's ears and quietly spoke, "Serve me some food."

Taehyung almost could not believe that he was able to make such a shameless request. "Get lost."

"I'll give you 1 won for every chopstick serving."

"Get lost."

"2 won."

"Get lost, get lost, get lost."

"5 won, 10 won, 20 won?"

Bang——

Taehyung slammed a hand on the table and stood up.

Everyone was shocked by his actions.

He grabbed Jungkook's arm and hauled him towards the door. "You, come out."

Jungkook did not resist and was dragged out of the room by him just like that. Still hauling him along, Taehyung found a corner and shoved him up against the wall.

He leaned back and looked down at Taehyung, an enigmatic smile on his lips.

"Jungkook." Taehyung pointed at him. "I think you should just change your name to Lunatic Jeon. Whatever is wrong with you, please quickly go and seek treatment for it, alright? Stop running around and being a menace to society."

"I'll give you 50 won for every chopstick serving."

"......" Taehyung grabbed his collar. "What exactly are you up to?"

Jungkook quirked a smile. "Taehyung, don't think I don't know what you're up to. He's still underage, are you going to make a move on him?"

Taehyung placed one hand on his hip and stared at Jungkook. "Let's shove aside the question of whether I'm interested in him or not for now... The thing is, how are any of my affairs your business?"

"I'm opposed to whatever you want."

"Oh, I want to be a pauper then."

"Sure, granted. In a few days, you'll be a pauper."

Taehyung could not be bothered to continue bickering with him. He ran his fingers through his hair. "You're such a darned drama king."

"I'll give you 100 won for every chopstick serving."
