This was the first time that it was difficult to sleep. I laid on the bed, tossing and turning. No matter what I did, I couldn't throw the image of kook's pale face off my mind. I sat up and sighed deeply. Jungkook, that bastard, how did he become like this after reincarnation? He was obviously a hateful and cocky man. How did he become like this?

As long as kook made me mad once, even if it was only once, then I could heartlessly get rid of him! Why?! Why...why have that kind of expression?! That grieving expression made me feel guilty.

I sighed deeply again. Suddenly, I saw a black shadow in front of my room. I raised an eyebrow, wondering if it was student Qing Shan and Hei Wu. But then I heard a subtle muttering in front of my door, and my heart tightened. It was kook. Even after being wronged, he still came to look for me. Really...he really wouldn't let me get mad even once.

He was only muttering at the doorway, not knocking and not coming in. Actually, I was worried and went to the door. Through the door, I heard him muttering to himself, "Lisa , I'm sorry. I wasn't refusing to admit, I was thinking about how I could refuse uncle and how to mention... mention... Lisa. I'm sorry, it's my fault..."

He kept repeating those words several times, repeating the same phrases all over again. I was anxious after listening him, so I pulled the door open and asked, "What did you want to mention to your uncle?"

Kook was caught off-guard when I opened the door. He stared at me blankly. His face turned red, but after a while, it turned white.

I couldn't guess his mind. I took a deep breath and was about to apologize to him, but he grabbed my sleeves and whispered, "Lisa, I'm not white-eyed wolf. I know my right eye isn't beautiful, but... don't be disgusted by my eye and don't be disgusted of me."

Even the most complex emotion, even the words that I wanted to say to him, had been broken by his sentence.

He had been lingering at my door for so long and had prepared so many things to say. But when he saw me, he said such a sentence.

Although he had never mentioned it, I knew that this eye injury of his had become his Achilles heel. I also knew how much my words hurt him. I now also knew that he was really afraid that I would despise him.

For some time, looking at him, I didn't know what sort of emotions to show.

Fifteen year-old kook was already taller than me. For the first time, I looked seriously at his eye. In his eyes, the snow in the courtyard that had been lit by the moonlight looked really bright. This child really existed. He wasn't a fleeting fragment of Jungkook's life but a real person living a real life.

I clearly understood that Song Yun Lisa's life was just a bubble, but in Lu Hai Kook's eyes, this was his whole life. His only life.

Tonight was really cold. With one hand, I held onto the door while I used the other to pull kook into a hug. Both hands were now clutching his back, holding him tightly.

Kook's already stiff body became stiffer.

"Li li li li li....Lisa ?"

"I'm sorry," I said. "Those were only words said out of anger. I'm sorry. I'm not disgusted by you. Don't be sad."

Kook didn't move, but his stiff body loosened. He hesitated for a moment before he put his hands on my back. He held me loosely, as though he felt that if he held me tighter, he would offend me. I heard him sigh in my ear, "Lisa, at that time, I didn't say anything because I was just thinking about how to refuse uncle and how to mention...mention marrying you."

I looked down because I didn't want to look him in the eye.

"These few years, there was no opportunity. I also delayed Lisa. As it happens, now there is some free time, so, so I thought we could marry... just now, I also convinced uncle. Lisa, do you agree to this marriage?"
