“Why do I have a feeling that Hua Soojin is a bit unpleasant to look at?” Jimin said suddenly, his eyes still on the door that had just closed.

Kihyun glanced at him, nodding slightly. “Just a little.”

“I feel that Hua Soojin doesn’t like Lili,” Rosé said thoughtfully, narrowing her eyes. “Lili, do you know her?”

Hearing Rosé’s words, Lisa spared another glance at Kihyun’s wounds before chuckling slightly. “There have been several chance meetings with her. Why didn’t you let her treat your injuries?”

The front part of her reply was to Rosé, the latter part was directed at Kihyun.

“I think her appearance at that time was just too coincidental.” Kihyun furrowed his eyebrows. This Hua Soojin, when she had first come to the Bai gang, she had saved somebody. Later on, she proposed a medicated bath that could strengthen bodies, and she already had a place in the gang, and was sought after by many people.

Kihyun finds something about the entire situation weird, but he couldn’t pinpoint the reason why.

“Don’t think too much about it,” Lisa said, reaching into her pockets to dig around for a while, before taking out a small bottle and throwing it at him.

He caught it with one hand, finding the bottle to contain the same kind of medicine that Yoongi had once given him before. Knowing that the effects of this medicine were extraordinary, he put it away silently. He was thinking that he should bring Lisa to walk around in the gang one day, see if those guys would change their goddess or not!

Adding on those martial art techniques that Lisa had thrown at him to strengthen his own body, how could it not be better than those medicated baths that Soojin had suggested?

Thinking of it suddenly, he asked, “Is there any shortcut that can make someone strong in a short span of time?”

“Going against the natural laws like that, everything you do will have a hefty price to pay.” Lisa wasn’t the one that replied, but Jungkook.

His voice was deep and solemn, echoing heavily within Kihyun’s mind. The latter raised his head to look at the former, and was stunned for a long time before being able to come back to his senses.

Although the few in the ward were no longer as apprehensive toward Jungkook as before, they were still more reserved when he was around. Lisa had come over initially to see how badly Kihyun was injured, and seeing how he still had the energy to laugh and jump around, she threw the medicine at him and went home with a relieved heart.

“Then, I’ll be leaving too. There’s still a lot of things to be done in the student council.” Jimin got up, stuffing the remaining apples into Kihyun’s hands.

Rosé picked up her bag and stood too. “I’ll be filming tomorrow, and after that I have to rush back for class. Hope you recover soon.”

Everyone left at the same time, leaving Kihyun alone and he felt some sadness welling up in him.

“Was I just abandoned?” He asked faintly, looking toward Ah Gen.

“Yes you were, Young Master Yao.” Ah Gen said without trying to disguise the truth.

Kihyun: What do I do when my heart hurts? Straightforward boy! Let me tell you what good you are!

Rosé and Jimin followed after Lisa, going down the steps together. When they reached the entrance, the rain was still beating down heavily. They stood in front of the hospital, thinking that they probably had to run in the rain, but a black car came to a stop in front of them unexpectedly.
