Chapter 12: Chapter 12

Nayeon's party is today and Y/N, Tzuyu and Chaeyoung are ready to go. It took some time for Y/N to convince the two to join her but she eventually managed to.

"You girls look so pretty." Mrs. Chou admired.

"Yeah, you really do. I'm so proud of all three of you." Mr. Chou added.

"Thanks mom and dad." Tzuyu smiled.

"I still can't believe that Y/N convinced you two." Their father shook his head.

"It's because they love me." Y/N joked. "Anyways we should go now or else we'll be late." The CEO added.

"Go ahead, the car is waiting outside." Mr. Chou informed.

"Y/N wait!" Her mom suddenly yelled when they were about to get in the car.

"You two enter." Y/N told her sister and cousin.

"Thank you for taking care of them. We're really proud of you." Y/N's parents are really thankful for Y/N. If it wasn't for her, the family would've been a mess.

"Thank you for trusting me." Y/N smiled as she entered the car and with that they made their way to the party.

---------------------

"Oh Y/N-ssi, welcome." Nayeon immediately approached the three when she saw them entering.

"Thank you."

"Chou Tzuyu. Son Chaeyoung. Welcome." Nayeon also greeted them.

"Thank you, Im Nayeon." Chaeyoung emphasized the girl's name.

"Well, let me take you guys inside." Nayeon suggested and the three followed. The party is a typical rich people party. Nayeon really went all the way for this.

"You really went all the way for this, huh." Y/N chuckled.

"Of course, gotta show my investors what they're dealing with." Nayeon smiled.

"Y/N-ssi, join us here!" Sana suddenly yelled from a table.

"Oh yeah, you guys are close to Sana and Mina right? I'll leave you guys with them while I greet the other guests. I'll be right back." Nayeon said and touched Y/N's arm before leaving.

"I didn't expect to see the Chou sisters and their cousin here." Sana said once they went to their table.

"Life is full of susrpises, isn't it Sana-ssi?" Tzuyu asked.

"I gotta say Chaeyoung looks very different. I mean I've never seen you in a dress before." Sana remembered. Y/N really had to pull some strings to make Chaeyoung wear a dress. The girl just couldn't let go of her leather jacket.

"You look beautiful though, doesn't she Mina-yah?" Sana smirked.

"Yeah, whatever." Mina acted uninterested. The five of them just continued to talk until Sana suddenly started to talk to Y/N privately.

"You look really nice today." She complimented the CEO.

"Thank you, you too."

"You make me regret that we stopped doing whatever we were doing." Sana whispered seductively in Y/N's ear but little does she know that it has absolutely no effect on Y/N.

"I never liked you." Y/N whispered back in Sana's ear.

"You're lying. I know you did." Sana touched Y/N's arm.

Nayeon saw the scene happening from afar and her heart was racing. Why does she hate that Sana is so close to Y/N right now? And why are they smiling and flirting all the time? It's driving her crazy so she decided to interrupt.

"I see you guys are having fun." Nayeon joined them.

"Yeah, this party is nice." Sana smiled.

"Eunha-ssi was looking for you. Maybe you should go see what she wants." Nayeon lied. She just doesn't want Sana near Y/N.

"Oh, I'll go look for her then. I'll be right back." And with that Sana left. Tzuyu, Mina and Chaeyoung were talking among themselves. Well it was more like Chaeyoung trying to flirt with Mina, Mina rejecting Chaeyoung and Tzuyu trying to stop Chaeyoung from flirting with Mina.

"I'm really thankful that you came to this party. As my most biggest investor it was really important for you to show up." Nayeon said.

"I know, that's why I'm here. I wouldn't humiliate you like that. I even brought these two with me." Y/N gestured to the bickering Chaeyoung and Tzuyu. Mina couldn't deal any longer with Chaeyoung so she left already.

"Thank you, Y/N-ssi."

"Chou Y/N?" A guy suddenly approached them.

"Lee Minho?" Y/N raised her eyebrows. Nayeon is confused do these two know each other? Of course they do. All rich kids know each other.

"Wow, it's really been a while. So nice to see you again." The guy shook Y/N's hand and Y/N gladly accepted. Great. Nayeon managed to take Sana away from her but now this Minho guy is here. Y/N and Minho started to talk among themselves totally ignoring Nayeon's existence so Nayeon decided to leave in frustration. It drives her crazy how absolutely everyone is trying to flirt with Y/N.

"Did you see how Im Nayeon left once Minho showed up?" Tzuyu asked her cousin.

"Yeah, she looks frustrated." Chaeyoung laughed.

"Something is going on, but I'm not sure what." Tzuyu shook her head.

"She's probably just frustrated because guys give Y/N unnie more attention than her." Chaeyoung guessed.

-------------------------

The party was going smoothly and everyone was having fun except for Chaeyoung and Tzuyu. They hate it here, but they're trying to have fun just for the sake of their unnie.

Y/N just went to the bathroom and she heard people talking in the hallways. The voices sounded familiar and it looked like they were arguing so Y/N went closer to them.

"C'mon, I know you want me back. Just imagine how much we'll gain if we get back together." The guy said.

"We're over Mingyu. I'm never going back to you. There are a lot of other rich girls that could help you achieve your goals, why do you keep bothering me?" Nayeon questioned.

"It's because you were the only one that was naive enough to believe me." The guy chuckled and that made Y/N angry. Who is he to talk to her like that?

"And you really think she would be naive enough to believe you again?" Y/N interrupted and Nayeon was glad that someone just freed her from this stupid ex of hers.

"Oooh, Chou Y/N. What a surprise. Nice to see you." Mingyu exclaimed.

"Nice to see you too, Kim Mingyu."

"I'm sorry but Nayeon and I were having a private conversation so if you could just excuse us." He grabbed Nayeon's arm and was about to pull her with him but Y/N stopped him.

"Nayeon-ssi, Mina is looking for you. Apparently it's very urgent." Y/N lied.

"Oh I should go then." Nayeon freed her arm from Mingyu's grip and followed Y/N.

"Are you okay?" Y/N asked once they stopped walking.

"Yeah, don't worry about me."

"What does he want from you?"

"He just wants me to date him so that he can impress his family." Nayeon answered.

"But didn't you two date in the past?" Y/N remembers hearing it. It was huge news when it came out.

"Yeah, but turns out that he just dated me for business reasons. Just like everyone else." Nayeon said the last sentence weakly.

"Screw them. You deserve someone who loves you for who you are not for your money and power." Nayeon's heart melted upon hearing that. Y/N can be very sweet if she wants to.

"Didn't you ever experience something like this?" Nayeon asked. Almost all rich girls go through something like this. Guys just use them for their name and to impress their families.

"I've never dated anyone before."

"W-what? The Chou Y/N that everyone is dying to have, has never dated anyone?" Nayeon raised her eyebrows. It's hard to believe.

"No, why is that so surprising?"

"I don't know, you just look like someone who has dated a lot of people." Nayeon admitted. Y/N did have some love interests in the past but they didn't last very long. She actually never has fallen in love before.

"I guess I'm just busy with work."

"But did you ever fall in love?" Nayeon's curiosity is growing again.

"Since when are we talking about personal matters, Nayeon-ssi?" Y/N chuckled.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked." Nayeon looked down. She just wants to get to know Y/N better. It gets boring talking only about business all the time.

"It's okay. You're allowed to ask if you're curious."

"It looks like Minatozaki Sana and Lee Minho are interested in you though. Don't you have any interest in them?" Nayeon questioned.

"Why are you asking all of this Nayeon-ssi? Don't tell me you're... jealous?" Y/N smirked and Nayeon blushed looking away. Y/N isn't dense, she could see Nayeon's glares when she was talking to Sana. She also saw how frustrated she was when Minho showed up. She knows Nayeon is interested in her.

"No, why would I be jealous?" Nayeon was still looking away. Y/N held Nayeon's chin and turned her face so that she was facing her. Of course Y/N first made sure that no one is around. It wouldn't be good for them if someone sees this.

"Why do I feel like you are though?" Y/N whispered into Nayeon's ear, making Nayeon's heart beat faster. Y/N isn't the type of girl to flirt even though she's good at it. She's just following Jihyo's advice. If Nayeon falls for her then it'll be a lot easier to execute her plan.

"What are you doing?" Nayeon suddenly pushed Y/N.

"What? We were just talking."

"That was too close, Y/N-ssi." Nayeon looked angry. Maybe Y/N was wrong about Nayeon being interested in her?

"I'm sorry. I was just playing around. I'll go see what Tzuyu and Chaeyoung are up to." Y/N doesn't want to make her feel uncomfortable. After all her goal is to make Nayeon trust her not to creep her out.

Y/N was about to walk away but Nayeon stopped her holding her arm. Y/N turned around and before she knew it Nayeon crashed her lips onto hers, kissing her slowly. Y/N was surprised. Turns out Nayeon is indeed interested in her after all. Y/N reacted very quickly and kissed the girl in front of her back. She has to admit that Nayeon is a pretty good kisser.

"I am jealous. What are you going to do about it?" Nayeon whispered in Y/N's ear when she pulled away from the kiss.

"You're a very daring woman aren't you?" Y/N asked. "What if someone saw us?"

"But no one did." Nayeon shook her head. "Let's just forget about this. It was just a one time thing, right? Let's return to being business partners tomorrow."

"What if I don't want to forget it?" Y/N asked.

"I'm not stupid, Y/N-ssi. I know you're not interested in me so stop acting like you are. Now excuse me, I have a speech to give." Nayeon hit Y/N's chest lightly as she smiled and with that she left. Nayeon isn't sure what Y/N's intentions really are but she knows that Y/N is up to something. Maybe she has the same intention like all the other guys that she dated before.

"I may not be interested in you, but you are for sure interested in me, Im Nayeon." Y/N said to herself and went back to the party.

"Yah, where were you? How could you leave me alone?" Tzuyu scolded her unnie once Y/N returned.

"I went to the bathroom, chill."

"You were away for like half an hour." Tzuyu crossed her arms.

"I saw some people on the way. Yah, do I really have to explain myself to you?"

"Yes. You're acting weird lately." Tzuyu noticed.

"Wait, where's Chaeyoung?" The CEO asked.

"I don't know. Probably trying to talk to Mina."

"Aish, I told her to leave that girl alone." Y/N sighed.

"You know how Chaeyoung is. If she can't get someone then she'll work for it until she gets her."

"Mina is not someone that she can get though." Y/N shook her head.

"I don't know. They did kiss you know." Tzuyu chuckled.

"I swear if Chaeyoung gets me in trouble again, I'll kill her this time."

"I'm sorry, can I have everyone's attention?" Nayeon took the mic and everyone turned to look at her.

"Thank you all for coming to this celebration. Today we are celebrating the new project of ImTech that has already showed some success and it will surely show us more. I want to thank everyone that invested in this project and everyone that participated in this project as well. Most importantly I want to thank our biggest investor who invested 5 billion won in this. Thank you, Chou Y/N. Cheers." Nayeon lifted her glass as she locked eyes with Y/N and everyone started clapping.

"She mentioned you." Tzuyu chuckled.

"I have ears, I heard that."

"Did you like my speech?" Nayeon suddenly approached them.

"Yeah, thank you for mentioning my name." Both of them are really acting as if they didn't just kiss in the hallways.

"No problem, Y/N-ssi." Nayeon's attitude is different today. Y/N feels like something is up. Maybe Nayeon knows something?

"Look who we have here. It's my precious sister and her precious investor." Jin joined the conversation as he put his arm around Nayeon's shoulder.

"Hello, Tzuyu-ssi. It's been a while." Jin greeted her.

"Hello." Tzuyu simply said back.

"I didn't expect for Chou Y/N to show up here." He took a sip of his wine.

"Why?" Tzuyu asked.

"Because Y/N doesn't like these kind of things. I know you also don't, Tzuyu-ssi." Jin is right about that.

"How do you even know?" Nayeon asked. She still doesn't know how the two know each other.

"I know everyone, Nayeon-ah." He just shrugged it off. Nayeon knows that there's some bad blood between the two. She needs to find out as soon as possible.

"Anyways, people are starting to leave. We should say goodbye to them Nayeon-ah." Jin suggested and the two left.

"Let's find Chaeyoung and leave as well." Y/N suggested and Tzuyu agreed. It took them about 10 minutes to find her and it turns out that Chaeyoung got drunk and apparently she caused a scene by arguing with one of the other guests. Y/N can't scold her right now since she's too drunk anyways, but she'll surely get scolded tomorrow.
