Just as Donghyuk was about to leave, they ran into Lisa and Jungkook.
They've been here for many days, and this was the first time Jungkook had stepped outside. Jaehyun's eyes were round and wide. "That's... Big Boss?"
Hoseok gave him a disgusted look. "You don't look retarded." Why are you saying such idiotic things, if that's not Big Boss, then who is it?
Jaehyun: "..." D*mn this as*hole Yi Hoseok!
Lisa was buying some small trinkets, with Jungkook following behind her. When they bumped into Donghyuk and the others, he nodded slightly. Lisa however, smiled brightly as she greeted them. "Hello, have you seen Jiji?"
"Jiji is eating in the kitchen, Miss Lalisa." Hoseok wanted to slap himself once the words were out, Jiji was a robot, how could it be eating?
Wouldn't the food just get stuck inside it?
"Thank you for your care," Lisa replied, the smile still bright on her face.
Hoseok hurried to say that it was no problem at all, and he couldn't help but feel like there was something hidden behind her bright smile.
Thinking back to the happenings in the Imperial Capital as well as the elders in the ancient martial arts world, he couldn't help but shudder. Who was the unlucky one this time, to have caught her eye? If you thought about it, there was only Xiahou Chengqin at the current moment.
Seeing how Hoseok the rest left in such a hurry, Lisa rubbed her chin thoughtfully as she turned to look at Jungkook. "Are they afraid of me, or you, Brother Jungkook?" They had run away so fast?
The expression on Jungkook didn't change as he replied, "Whoever you say."
"..." What a half-a*sed answer!
Glancing around, she spotted Cecily not far from them. Cecily had brightened up when she saw Lisa, but she stopped in her steps the moment she noted Jungkook beside her, not daring to come any closer.
Lisa saw this, and glanced at Jungkook. "Wait here for me, I'm going over to Cecy."
"Cecily, her name is Cecily." Jungkook corrected.
Thinking that she shouldn't argue with a patient at this time, Lisa just agreed with him. "Alright, Cecily it is." She waved her hand, and ran all the way to Cecily's side.
"Lili," Cecily greeted, breathing out deeply. "I thought that I wouldn't see you today."
"What's wrong?" Lisa asked, looking at her.
"It's this." Cecily pulled out a USB drive. "When I was on a mission this afternoon, I did a sweep and managed to find fluctuations of malicious aura in the area, but I wasn't able to recover the data on it. If you can try recovering it, then I'll be able to pinpoint the location of the source."
Lisa took the USB drive, twirling it around in her hand. "What happened to you this afternoon?" Lisa asked suddenly, the thought had been on her mind all the while.
When Lisa raised the matter, Cecily's face changed to a pitiful one immediately. "Lili, you have to get revenge for me. Do you know why I was sent to N City? It's because of him, he almost tore tendons in my hands and legs."
The tears almost slid out from Cecily's eyes when she thought about it.
D*mmit, she had never seen such a man who wouldn't show any mercy to a beautiful woman!
Lisa observed Cecily from top to bottom, suspicion in her eyes. "Brother Jungkook may be a little cold, but his temper is much better than mine. Did you manage to anger him in any way?"
