"Regina, come in."

One guest room's door opened, and a caucasian woman in her late twenties appeared in an elegant white dress. She had straight, blonde hair and red lipstick. She strutted with her heels tapping the floor, her hips swayed left and right, showing her perfect body. 

She had a thin smile as she approached Madam Jeon and Aunty Feng. She gave them kisses on the cheek and acted all familiar, "Aunt Feng and Jeon are beautiful as always."

"Ahaha, you are lovely, Regina," Madam Jeon said, "You should greet Junho. He is very eager to see you. And he is currently single."

Madam Jeon winked at her. Regina kept her thin smile and approached Junho and Kibum. She passed Kibum and stopped in front of Junho, "Long time no see, Jeon Junho."

She gave Junho cheek kisses as a greeting, but she glanced at Kibum and showed a small smirk. Junho responded because this was how greeting was done in the west as a sign of respect, but it was different in Kibum's eyes.

'She dares to kiss Junho, my Junho!' 

'Brother, why are you sitting like an idiot? Push her away from Junho!' 

Taewoo yelled inside Kibum's head to no avail. Kibum could only clench the bouquet of flowers he brought. 

"Junho, do you still remember me?" Regina asked.

"No," Junho said coldly.

"Ahaha, you are such a dork. We met two months ago in New York, remember?" 

[For real, though, who is this random girl?]

[Pupa: Regina Grace George, people called her Regina George instead. She was Junho's childhood friend when he grew up in the U.S for seven years. She is the daughter of a wealthy businessman. She is highly knowledgeable, master's degree in the ivy league, and speaks four languages.]

[Ehh… I admit that she is pretty, but I'm like… 100% a shou, and Junho is even more bent than I am. What is my mother's intention in bringing her here? There are three men in this room, and all of them are a bunch of homos!]

[Pupa: You mean… five men?] 

[Well, if you count Taewoo and me in, then yes, tee-hee.]

Regina sat beside Madam Jeon, and she acted surprised, "Oh my, I forgot that there is another person here."

Regina smiled at Feng Xiaojun, "My name is Regina Grace George. Nice to meet you."

"Feng Xiaojun, a pleasure to meet you," Xiaojun said. He glanced at Brother Jun, not knowing what to react. Because Regina intended to ignore Kibum.

Junho was annoyed at such an underhanded, petty tactic, he said, "You are bold enough to ignore my spouse." 

Regina raised her brows, she covered her mouth with her fingers, "Oh my, I'm sorry. I thought he is just a random servant of this mansion. I never thought someone so cheap looking could be your spouse, Junho."

[Wait… is this?]

[Pupa: Yes, Madam Jeon brings Regina here not to seduce you, but to intimidate Kibum.]

"Don't you dare to insult my spouse! I love him, and it would be quite logical for you, as my friend, to respect him," Junho said. He glanced at Kibum, afraid that it would affect him because he knew how insecure Kibum was.

"Oh, no, I do not dare!" Regina shook her head, "But you must forgive me because I'm quite sharp with my evaluation based on preference."

Regina pointed at Kibum's tuxedo, "Just look at that tuxedo, it is not something familiar to me, and tell you what, my father is quite knowledgeable about good quality suit and tux."

"Maybe he bought it from the random store? I have to say, though, it fits his face, since… you know, he is quite… average, at least compared to you," Regina started judging with the intention of pulling Kibum's confidence down to the gutter.

"You—!" 

"Eh? Junho, why are you angry? You know well that tuxedo is pretty cheap, usually used by servants or guards. I'm just stating the truth," Regina tilted her head innocently;

"Besides, I noticed that he is wearing no-brand shoes. I admire his populist nature, but frankly, I find it detestable. How could he step into Jeon Mansion with that shoes? Aren't you the one who said that you don't like someone who doesn't care about their appearance?"

[Wait, did Junho ever said that?!]

[Pupa: But of course.]

"My spouse takes care of his appearance seriously! He is well-dressed for this special occasion!" Junho rebuked. He held Kibum's hand tightly, looking at him anxiously, "Don't listen to what she said. I really appreciate your earnestness to meet my mother!"

"Oh, speaking about earnestness…" Regina's eyes darted at the bouquet of flower on Kibum's hand, "Why does he bring a bouquet of cheap roses? You didn't tell him that Aunt Jeon loves Pansy and Gardenia? She hates roses, don't you remember?"

"Or maybe, because Gardenia and Pansies are quite expensive, so he cannot afford it? Well, with his kind of appearance, I guess the budget must be tight," Regina's words completely destroyed Kibum's confidence. His body trembled in shock as his heart sunk to a bottomless pit.

[Madam Jeon doesn't like roses?!]

[Pupa: There is no information about this. But I don't think so. Regina may just make it up on the spot to bully Kibum.]

Junho glared at Regina, "My mother never told me that she doesn't like roses! I sent her a variety of flowers, and she never complains!"

"Oh? Aunt Jeon told me that she hates roses. I guess that means Aunt Jeon and I are quite close, don't you think?" Regina grinned as she was victorious. 

Junho's eyes darted at his mother, asking for confirmation. But Madam Jeon zipped her mouth and ignored her son. It was really the sign that she took part in bullying Kibum. 

Junho had enough. He stood from the chair and pulled Kibum with him.

"Junho, where are you going?" Madam Jeon finally asked. 

Junho and Kibum halted their steps, "I agreed to meet you because I want to introduce my lover to my parents. I don't want him to be bullied unnecessarily."

[Pupa: Ding! Kim Kibum's Fatemeter increases to 60%.]

[Pupa: Ding! Kim Taewoo's Fatemeter increases to 60%.]

"Fine then, it's up to you," Madam Jeon was angry. She tried hard to wake Junho up, he was still stubborn to stay with this ordinary man;

"But you should know, Regina will be working as your second secretary starting tomorrow! Remember that!"
