I'm sorry for the mistakes I made with the grammar. Here is another chapter. Enjoy :)

Joon Pyo was reading a proposal from one of the car company in Korea, Hwang Q Inc. Suddenly his door was opened which only meant that it was Secretary Jung who came in his room. Joon Pyo looked up to see what he wanted.

"I'm sorry to disturb, Young Master. But, Young Miss wants to see you," Secretary Jung reported.

Joon Pyo frowned when he heard that his sister was here to see him. However, before he decided to let her come in or not, Joon Hee had pushed Secretary Jung aside and stepped into the room. Joon Pyo grimaced seeing his sister acted like that. "You can't just barge into my office like that, noona!" he yelled in annoyed voice.

Joon Hee just rolled her eyes and sat in front of him. "Don't you dare talk to me in that tone, Young Master," she said mockingly.

"Don't you dare call me that!" Joon Pyo threatened back. People, who tried to call Joon Pyo that, was just sounded teasing to his ear. Only Secretary Jung and some of his personal bodyguards were allowed to call him that.

Joon Hee rolled her eyes again. "Whatever!" she said, not really cared. "I'm in tight schedule. I have to meet Jan Di in an hour. I'm here just to ask you something," she said hurriedly. "Have you ordered Shinhwa's necklace for Jan Di?"

Joon Pyo grimaced. "Not yet, I forgot," he admitted. Shinhwa necklace was a necklace with Shinhwa symbol as the pendant, which was owned by every female in Shinhwa family. Joon Pyo was supposed to give Jan Di the necklace before their engagement party, so people would believe the seriousness of their bond.

Joon Hee snorted. "You should be grateful that I'm here, little brother," she reminded him smugly.

"Yeah.. yeah.. whatever!" Joon Pyo was tired with Joon Hee's smugness. "Can you order the necklace for me, noona?" he added nicely.

"Sure, no problem!" Joon Hee said readily. "One more thing. Have you ever talked to Jan Di about the importance of engagement party?"

Joon Pyo shrugged. "Not yet. I don't want to burden her with that thing yet. I want to give her time to get used to the idea of our engagement before pressing her with such thing," he said, frowning.

Joon Hee shook her head. "You know it's really important, Joon Pyo," she practically scolded him. Like she had told Jan Di, there were problems that Joon Pyo got because of his single status in public eyes. She knew that her little brother was really overwhelmed by that trouble.

"I know.. I know.." Joon Pyo sighed. "I'll talk to her when the time comes," he convinced Joon Hee.

"Fine. Now I'll just go to see Jan Di. Do you want to send her something? A hug or maybe a kiss?" Joon Hee asked teasingly.

Joon Pyo scowled at her. "Just go, noona," he said harshly. Joon Hee just laughed and walked toward the door. "And don't you dare talk anything weird to her!" Joon Pyo yelled just before Joon Hee closed the door.

After Joon Hee left, Joon Pyo was deep in thought. His sister made him remembered about what he and Jan Di had talked about last night. He called Secretary Jung to his office. Secretary Jung stepped into the office as soon as possible. He stood up in front of the closed door with prepared posture. Joon Pyo was silent for a minute before ordered him to come and sit in the chair in front of him. Secretary Jung walked toward the chair in silent. He was confused at first before he finally realized why Joon Pyo acted strange like this.

"I talked to Jan Di about something last night," Joon Pyo started seriously. "She told me that you brought her to see father a long time ago," he continued. "Was that true?"

Secretary Jung smiled understandingly. "I have expected this question since last night, Young Master," he said politely. "Yes, I brought Miss Jan Di to see Master Goo when he was still in comma," he admitted.

"Why?" Joon Pyo asked in confused tone. He wasn't mad at Secretary Jung because he knew that Secretary Jung wouldn't do anything bad to either Jan Di or his father. Secretary Jung was one of few people that he trusted the most.

"I just thought that it was good for both of them," Secretary Jung answered in mysterious tone. "I read that it's good to still talk to people who are in comma. That's why I asked Miss Jan Di to visit Master Goo when she had time. Besides, I thought it was a good idea to slowly introduce Miss Jan Di to Master," he explained.

Joon Pyo sighed. He couldn't find fault in that explanation. "My mother never knew about it, I take it," Joon Pyo said.

Secretary Jung shook his head. "No, Young Master," he admitted.

"Yeah. I can't imagine what my mother would say if she heard you for even suggesting that idea," Joon Pyo said, chuckling a little. Secretary Jung just smiled politely. "Why did you never tell me about it?"

"The occasion never came before. I just didn't know how to bring it up," Secretary Jung confessed. "I really apologize for stepping out of the boundary, Young Master," he finally apologized.

Joon Pyo grimaced. "Yeah, it's alright. Just don't you ever do this kind of things without my permission again, okay?" Joon Pyo ordered strictly.

"Of course, Young Master," Secretary Jung agreed instantly.

"You can go now," Joon Pyo said, picking up the proposal again. He needed to finish reading this proposal this morning before he had to have a conference call with the company branch in Hong Kong.

Joon Pyo was just wrapping up the conference call when his cell phone vibrated in his pocket. He let it stop vibrating because he was still giving final orders to the General Manager in Hong Kong. The second time his cell phone vibrated again, he was finally able to answer it. He felt a little disappointed when he saw Woo Bin's face instead of Jan Di's on the screen.

"Yo," Joon Pyo greeted lazily.

"Something happened last night," Woo Bin suddenly said instead of greeted Joon Pyo.

"Huh?" Joon Pyo felt confused by the way his best friend talked.

"I knew you were busy last night, so I didn't disturb you. But there's something important that we have to talk about. Can you come to base camp now?" Woo Bin said to the point.

"Oh.. Okay, I'll check with Secretary Jung. I'll call you later," Joon Pyo replied before hanging up without hearing Woo Bin's response. He knew that Woo Bin wouldn't have bothered him when he was in office if it was not important. That was why Joon Pyo called Secretary Jung immediately after Woo Bin called.

Secretary Jung confirmed that every appointment that Joon Pyo had that day could be rescheduled easily. Hearing that, Joon Pyo ordered Secretary Jung to prepare the car, so he could go immediately. He called Woo Bin to confirm his arrival at the base camp in an hour for the latest.

Joon Pyo arrived at the base camp around two o'clock in the afternoon. Woo Bin, Yi Jeong, and Ji Hoo's cars are already in the parking lot. Joon Pyo got out of his red Lotus and walked to the house. He found his three best friends at the living room. They all looked really serious

"What is happening?" Joon Pyo asked and took a seat beside Woo Bin at one of the couches.

For a moment, nobody answered Joon Pyo's question. Yi Jeong and Woo Bin was exchanging stare while Ji Hoo just looked at nothing in particular. Joon Pyo looked at his best friends before his eyes focused on Ji Hoo. Ji Hoo was usually silent, but he wasn't usually serious. "Yah! What's going on?" Joon Pyo asked again impatiently.

"We just found out yesterday that Min Seo Hyun is coming back here," Woo Bin finally said.

"What? How dare she come back here like that! She has no right to come back!" Joon Pyo said angrily.

"And we have no right to forbid her for coming back to her own country," Yi Jeong interjected.

Joon Pyo was speechless for a moment before sighed in defeat. "Yeah.. well.." He shrugged, not knowing what to say. "So what are we gonna do?" he asked again.

"Well, at first we didn't plan to do anything.." Woo Bin started.

"Wait a minute, where did this decision come from?" Joon Pyo interrupted again.

Woo Bin sighed in defeat. Why can't Joon Pyo let me finish first? "This was decided last night when Yi Jeong and I went to Ji Hoo's house," Woo Bin explained.

"Why wasn't I informed? How could you decide it without me?" Joon Pyo asked again, half-angry half-pouting.

"Because you were busy last night, remember?" Yi Jeong responded, groaning. "You had this big dinner with Jan Di and your family."

"Oh yeah," Joon Pyo said sheepishly. "So we won't do anything with Seo Hyun's arrival?" Joon Pyo tried to get them back to topic.

"No, that was the first plan, but the plan changed," Woo Bin corrected.

Joon Pyo frowned. "Why?" he asked in confusion.

"Because Seo Hyun called Ji Hoo this morning," Yi Jeong informed him.

"What?" Joon Pyo yelled. "How dare she contacted our Ji Hoo again after what she did.."

Ji Hoo who had been silent when the other talked suddenly chuckled. And then he suddenly laughed louder. Woo Bin and Yi Jeong who succeeded to hold their laugh at first, finally cracked up too. Joon Pyo stared at them with confused and angry expression.

"WHAT? Why do you suddenly laugh?" he asked in annoyance.

"It's just.." Yi Jeong tried to explain, but his laughter consumed him again.

Joon Pyo looked really annoyed by now. "Are you laughing at me? How dare you laugh at me like this? You wanna die?" He scolded his best friends.

After a few minutes Ji Hoo, Woo Bin, and Yi Jeong were finally able to control their laughter, Woo Bin tried to explain. "It's just funny when you said 'our Ji Hoo' as if we own Ji Hoo or something."

"I didn't say 'our Ji Hoo'," Joon Pyo objected quickly.

"Yeah, you did," Woo Bin argued back.

"Yeah, you did," Yi Jeong added.

"No, I didn't," Joon Pyo said stubbornly.

"Yeah, you did," even Ji Hoo argued.

"WHATEVER!" Joon Pyo finally gave up. "So what is our plan now?" he asked, closing the debate.

The others chuckled again seeing how stubborn Joon Pyo was. "Well, that's why we're all here, so we can decide what to do," Woo Bin explained.

"You know, I really appreciate your care in this matter, but it's kinda my personal problem. I should handle it on my own," Ji Hoo interrupted. He was looking at his best friends with serious expression.

"No, Ji Hoo. We can't let you handle it alone. She had hurt you really bad," Yi Jeong protested.

"Yeah, she hurt me, so it's my problem. I can handle it," Ji Hoo argued again.

"Ji Hoo, we're like brothers. Your problem is our problem too. We won't let you to handle it alone," Woo Bin pointed out.

"Look, I really appreciate all of this. But, I think I need to handle it alone," Ji Hoo said stubbornly.

Yi Jeong and Woo Bin were ready to argue again, but Joon Pyo interjected, "I think Ji Hoo's right."

"What?" Woo Bin and Yi Jeong yelled to Joon Pyo.

Joon Pyo looked serious. "This is his problem. He needs to solve it with his own way. Ji Hoo needs to find his own closure for this thing," Joon Pyo said. "Besides, he knows where to find us if he needs our help, right?" he added, asking Ji Hoo.

Ji Hoo smirked. "Wow, I never see you so mature before," he commented teasingly.

"Yah!" Joon Pyo yelled pushing Ji Hoo's shoulder making him fell to the floor. Woo Bin and Yi Jeong chuckled seeing their actions.

"Okay, seriously, are you sure that you want to handle it on your own?" Yi Jeong finally asked to make sure the final plan.

Ji Hoo nodded his head firmly. "I'm sure," he replied seriously.

"One thing I want to know," Joon Pyo interrupted. "Do you still have feeling to her?" he asked curiously making Yi Jeong and Woo Bin stared at Ji Hoo curiously too.

Ji Hoo frowned. "Why do you ask?" he asked back, feeling reluctant to answer that question.

Joon Pyo shrugged. "Just out of curiosity," Joon Pyo replied half-lying. He just suddenly remembered Jan Di's plan to set up Ji Hoo and Eun Jae.

"What will you do if I say yes?" Ji Hoo asked testing.

"WHAT?" his three best friends yelled simultaneously.

"I can't believe it," Woo Bin added.

"Come on, you can't be serious!" Joon Pyo scolded.

Yi Jeong groaned. "Ji Hoo, please tell us that you were just joking."

Ji Hoo shrugged innocently. "Well, I did say 'if'," he said nonchalantly, making his friends groaned.

"So you do or you don't?" Woo Bin asked again to clarify everything.

"No. I don't love her anymore," Ji Hoo finally clarified. "I think I start to like someone else instead," he added mysteriously.

"What? Who?" Woo Bin asked looking really surprised.

Yi Jeong, on the other hand, looked thoughtful. Joon Pyo was even smirking a little. The fact that his two best friends didn't comment anything made Woo Bin more surprised. "You knew about this?" he asked the two.

"I'm not sure, but I kinda saw it coming," Yi Jeong admitted.

"Yeah. I'm not really sure either, but I can guess," Joon Pyo said cockily.

Woo Bin stared at Joon Pyo in confusion. He wasn't that surprise if Yi Jeong knew, because Yi Jeong was observant for this kind of things. Joon Pyo, on the other hand, was used to be clueless. He was used to be the last person to understand things like this. "How can you know?" Woo Bin asked Joon Pyo.

"Because I'm genius," Joon Pyo replied smugly. Woo Bin threw a cushion at him. "Yah!" Joon Pyo protested.

"Alright, enough!" Yi Jeong stopped them. "Why don't we ask Ji Hoo who the mystery girl is?" he said looking at Ji Hoo.

Ji Hoo smirked. "I thought you knew."

"Yeah, well. We're not sure," Yi Jeong tried to reason.

"Why don't you take a guess then?" Ji Hoo challenged him.

"Fine," Joon Pyo interjected. "You start to like Eun Jae," he guessed smugly.

Ji Hoo stared at Joon Pyo for a moment. "Okay, I'm really curious. How can you know that?" Instead of confirming, Ji Hoo asked Joon Pyo back.

"So, it's right? You start to like Eun Jae? Han Eun Jae?" Woo Bin asked.

Ji Hoo sighed. "Yeah," he admitted. "Seriously, Joon Pyo, how can you figure it out?" he was still asking.

"I told you. Because I'm genius," Joon Pyo replied.

The other three snorted. "Yeah, right," Woo Bin said sarcastically.

"I think Jan Di told him something," Yi Jeong decided his own conclusion.

"Yah! Do you wanna die?" Joon Pyo yelled threateningly.

"I think you're right," Woo Bin said to Yi Jeong, ignoring Joon Pyo's yell.

"Wait a minute," Ji Hoo suddenly interrupted. "Jan Di said something to you?" he asked Joon Pyo, frowning. Joon Pyo shrugged. "She's not supposed to know about it. I mean nobody knew about this before today, right?" Ji Hoo asked the others.

Yi Jeong grimaced sheepishly. "Well, actually it was kinda obvious if you watched how you interacted with her over the weekend," he admitted.

"Really?" Woo Bin asked the same time Ji Hoo asked that too.

"Hu uh." Yi Jeong nodded. "Ga Eul even pointed out that you looked cozy with her," he added.

"Really? Jae Kyung didn't say anything," Woo Bin said wonderingly.

Yi Jeong smirked. "Maybe because you were too distracted when you're alone," he said mockingly.

Woo Bin grinned. "Yeah, we were," he admitted with the perverted smile on his face.

"We don't need to hear that!" Ji Hoo protested the same time Joon Pyo threw a cushion at Woo Bin.

"Guys.. guys.. we're missing the point here," Yi Jeong tried to remind the others.

"And what point are you talking about?" Woo Bin asked back when he was finally able to get rid of the cushion.

Yi Jeong smirked at Ji Hoo. "Are you gonna ask her out?" he asked teasingly. Woo Bin and Joon Pyo chuckled.

Ji Hoo, on the other hand, looked thoughtful. "Yeah, I think I will," he finally answered. "After this whole commotion with Seo Hyun finish," he added.

"WOOHOO! Ji Hoo finally gets a girl!" Woo Bin cheered.

"Hey, we don't know if she likes me too," Ji Hoo pointed out.

The other three snorted. "Yeah, right," Woo Bin said again.

"What?" Ji Hoo asked looking at Woo Bin.

"For this, even I can see that she likes you too. I mean it's clear as day," Woo Bin replied confidently. Yi Jeong and Joon Pyo nodded their heads as the sign on agreement.

Ji Hoo frowned. "Really?" he asked in disbelief. The other three nodded their heads.

"Speaking of girl, how is it with Jae Kyung?" Joon Pyo asked Woo Bin suddenly.

Woo Bin shrugged. "Still the same," he answered nonchalantly.

"They still don't approve of you?" Ji Hoo asked with concerned expression.

"I think that's clear. As long as I'm still Song Woo Bin, they're still not gonna be happy with the fact that Jae Kyung's dating me." Woo Bin sighed in defeat.

"They're gonna come around. We'll see," Joon Pyo tried to cheer him up. "I mean, even my mother finally approves of Jan Di," he added to convince Woo Bin.

"Yeah, let's hope so," Woo Bin replied simply.

"But your father doesn't have any objection about Jae Kyung, right?" Yi Jeong pointed out.

Woo Bin smiled a little. "My dad and I made a deal a long time ago," he said mysteriously.

"What deal?" Joon Pyo asked curiously.

"As long as I don't bother and question his personal life, he won't disturb mine," Woo Bin answered.

"What the hell does that mean?" Joon Pyo asked again.

"That means as long as I'm okay with his lifestyle or women, he won't interfere my choice of lifestyle or woman," Woo Bin clarified.

"Wow, you're lucky," Yi Jeong pointed out.

"Well, Jae Kyung's family already give us hell, we're gonna be dead if we get from my dad too," Woo Bin answered.

"What about you and Ga Eul?" Ji Hoo asked Yi Jeong when he realized that Yi Jeong was frowning.

"Well, unlike Woo Bin, my father is giving me hell about what girl I should bring home," Yi Jeong replied. This time it was his turn to sigh in defeat.

"It seems like you're the only one whose relationship will work smoothly," Joon Pyo commented about Ji Hoo.

Ji Hoo shrugged. "I still don't have any relationship yet. We'll see how that works out when I'll finally be able to call Eun Jae my girlfriend," he concluded.

After they were done with serious talk and serious problems, they decided it was time for them to get beers. They got a pack of beers and brought it to the living room. Joon Pyo's suit and tie had been rid when the beers came. Woo Bin's jacket had been thrown somewhere. Ji Hoo's glasses was laid carelessly between the beer's cans. Yi Jung's sweater was used as his pillow when his head was leaning on the couch.

"That's not true," Woo Bin protested after an argument.

"What's not true? That my bodyguards are better than your men?" Joon Pyo asked mockingly.

"Yeah. That's bullshit!" Woo Bin yelled. "My men are way better than your bodyguards. I trained them on my own. I do have a security company, you know. Besides, look at what they protect. My men protect my business, the clubs, the bars. Do you know how dangerous those places are?" Woo Bin challenged Joon Pyo.

"Yeah, because the drunk people are just so dangerous," Joon Pyo sneered. "My bodyguards are way better. If you want to look at what they protect, my bodyguards protect important people from something way more dangerous than drunken idiots," Joon Pyo said smugly.

"Important people like who? You? Since when you are important?" Woo Bin said.

"Yah! I've always been important!" Joon Pyo yelled and tried to attack Woo Bin. Woo Bin and Yi Jeong just laughed, especially when Ji Hoo threw himself at Joon Pyo to prevent from attacking Woo Bin. "Yah! Yoon Ji Hoo, get off of me!" Joon Pyo protested. They wrestled a little before Joon Pyo succeeded to get rid of Ji Hoo.

Woo Bin was lying on the floor, laughing when he looked at his friends acted so childish. His phone suddenly rang, making him stopped laughing altogether. He pulled the offensive thing out of his pocket and scowled at it. However, his scowl turned to silly grin when he saw whose face was flashing on the screen. "Hey, baby," he greeted excitedly,

"Kwon Dae Gyu," Jae Kyung's voice came from the phone.

Woo Bin got up from the floor and shook his head trying to get rid of the drunkenness. "Huh? What?" he asked again.

"Kwon Dae Gyu. My parents are planning to marry me off to him," Jae Kyung clarified.

Woo Bin suddenly sobered up. He looked really serious and made the other F4 members watched him warily. "Got it. I'll get my men to work on him," his voice was serious, but there was a slight slur on it that Jae Kyung caught.

"Are you drunk?" she accused him.

"What? No!" Woo Bin objected instantly before sighing. "Fine! We're just having a few beers," he finally admitted.

"Who are we?" Jae Kyung asked back.

"The F4," Woo Bin answered simply.

"Alright. I'll let you get back to them. I just want to let you know that there is a marriage plan."

"Yeah. Don't worry, baby. I'll look into it," he said before Jae Kyung hung up the call.

The other F4 members, who had been watching Woo Bin, stared at him seriously. "What is it?" Ji Hoo asked with concerned voice.

"Jae Kyung's parents finally choose a potential groom," Woo Bin exclaimed before groaning.

"Who is it?" Yi Jeong asked.

"Not me," Woo Bin grumbled drunkenly.

Joon Pyo chuckled. "Yeah, we've kinda guessed. But, who is exactly the 'not me'?" he asked to clarify.

"Kwon Dae Gyu," Woo Bin mumbled, scowling.

"From Hwang Q Inc.?" Ji Hoo asked to make sure.

Woo Bin's scowl deepened. "I think so. Name Kwon Dae Gyu shouldn't be that many, right?"

"Wait.. wait.. you mean Jae Kyung is arranged to marry Kwon Dae Gyu from Hwang Q Inc.?" Joon Pyo asked, making his friends groaned of him being so slow. "No! That's not it," Joon Pyo protested. "I just wanted to say that I just read their business proposal this morning," he said seriously. "I just read their business proposal to Shinhwa this morning," he repeated to clarify.

"Wait a minute," Woo Bin finally got what Joon Pyo was talking about. "If Jae Kyung's parents are considering getting Jae Kyung marrying him, then Hwang Q Inc. must have good business deal to JK Group."

"Yeah," Yi Jeong agreed. "And if Hwang Q wants to make a deal with JK Group, then why are they making deal with Shinhwa too?"

"I think there must be something big that they are planning if they need two biggest companies in Korea to back them up," Ji Hoo concluded.
