Chapter 282 - His self-control and patience went up in smoke (1)

Ye Lisa had always been on guard for Jungkook's instinctive behavior.

For example, Jungkook's reply, "that I really want to kill him!"

Sometimes, it was only a matter of a whim whether he would act on those destructive urges. The key point was whether he had the self-restraint to go against that.

Ye Lisa stared at him.

Fortunately, Jungkook was only thinking about it this time.

It was 10 PM when they got home, and the mansion had fallen quiet.

Aunty Yue wasn't asleep yet and was waiting for them in the living room. Seeing that they had returned home, she hastily approached them and asked if they wanted to eat dinner.

Their nerves had been stretched taut this night, and Jungkook and Ye Lisa hadn't had a chance to eat yet. They really were hungry now, so they had Aunty Yue prepare something simple for dinner.

Jungkook hadn't told anyone else about tonight's matter. He didn't want Mother Jeon to worry, and he was also worried that leaking out this news might harm Ye Lisa.

After dinner was served, Jungkook quietly asked, "Are Mom and Zhouzhou asleep?" He looked towards the staircase.

"Asleep." Aunty Yue smiled as she ladled out a bowl of soup for Ye Lisa. "It's just that Zhouzhou has been crying all day. He wouldn't eat. But don't worry, that's normal for a baby that's being weaned. It'll feel fine after a few days."

Jungkook nodded.

"Ah! What's wrong with Madam's neck? Why is there a bruise?"

There was a small bruise on the right side of Ye Lisa's neck. It hadn't been noticed during the examination and was covered by her coat. Now that Ye Lisa had taken off her coat, the bruise looked a bit nasty under the bright light.

Ye Lisa casually smiled. "It's nothing. I accidentally bumped into something. Aunty Yue, just bring me medicinal oil. I'll apply it on the bruise."

"Okay, I'll go get it." Aunty Yue assented as she went upstairs.

Jungkook glanced at that dreadful bruise. His eyes sank. "What happened?"

"It's probably from when Ye Zhenting grabbed me and held me hostage."

When Jungkook had entered the room, he had only seen Ye Zhenting approaching Ye Lisa with a knife. He hadn't seen Ye Zhenting restraining Ye Lisa and keeping her as a buffer between him and the loan sharks.

"He grabbed you?" The threatening aura around Jungkook grew strong. "How?"

Holding a spoonful of hot soup, Ye Lisa carefully below on it. She played down on the horrifying scene at the time. She briefly said, "It's nothing. He just had a tight grip on my neck for a moment when he grabbed me."

Seeing that she didn't want to talk about it, Jungkook didn't ask further questions. After the two finished dinner, they went upstairs. When Ye Lisa came out of the bathroom, Jungkook was standing at the window and on the phone.

The curtains were opened. Outside the window, there was darkness as far as the eye could see. This was a mansion community. It was vast and sparsely populated. There weren't any lit lights. It was snugly enclosed in darkness without a trace of light.

Ye Lisa sat down on the bed as she dried her hair. From time to time, she made out a few words that he was saying. Based on those few isolated phrases, she guessed that he was talking to the loan sharks.
