Mo Li had been waiting for this moment for so many years. Finally, Jungkook had woken up. She expected him to be as excited as herself at this point.
To her horror, Jungkook reacted as if he had not even seen her!
"My brother has already woken up." Mo Li peered at Lisa, whose expression was stone cold. She could sense hints of mockery with a dash of sympathy on her face.
She was so fixated on Lisa that she failed to notice how hostile Jungkook's expression had transformed!
Silently, he leapt past her. His attention was on a thin figure who stood behind her. Underneath his cold exterior, she could sense something warm flowing around.
Mo Li stood there, frozen in her tracks as she continued being ignored by the very person whom she looked forward to meeting for the past couple of years.
It wasn't Mo Li alone who was shocked beyond words. The 81-man formation who stood guard behind her were baffled by the turn of events.
According to popular hearsay, as high and mighty their master was, they did not expect him to outright ignore someone whom he knew, let alone a person like Mo Li.
Lisa did not walk forwards. She merely glanced at Jungkook with a light smile on her face.
Her smile, although gentle, glowed underneath the sunlight. As a light breeze blew past them, her dark hair fluttered around, making the whole scene seem almost as if it had been taken from a painting.
Mo Li glared at Lisa, then at Jungkook. She was in a state of pure disbelief!
"Brother..."
Jungkook got visibly annoyed when he heard her voice. His brows were furrowed instantly.
Lisa quickly took notice of this. With a cheeky grin on her face, she said to Jungkook, "Brother Jungkook, you deal with this whole situation here. I'm going off to Nichkun's place."
Jungkook didn't seem like he particularly enjoyed staying around here. He was noticeably disgusted upon hearing Lisa mention Nichkun's name. Still, seeing her smile made him defenseless.
"Fine, I'll come over as soon as I can." He tried his best but in the end, he couldn't help but cave in to his desire to embrace her. He marched forwards and slowly bent down with his arms wide open, ready to wrap themselves around her.
Standing there, he watched as she slowly walked off into the distance until she could no longer be seen. It was after he was sure that she left that he turned around to deal with Mo Li.
Mo Li's facial expression was still the same-disbelief.
No one knew Jungkook better than her. Back then, it was him that pulled her back from the deepest pits of hell, shielding her from harm the entire way. Although he rarely spoke to her, he was the only source of warmth in her life.
Mo Li did not doubt that she knew him better than anyone else here, even the parts of him which were so cold and unlikable!
She thought he would start ignoring Lisa once he recovered his memory. Never in a million years could she have foreseen him reacting with such a merciless attitude. Had he really regained his old memories?
"Brother... you..." Mo Li's mouth opened and closed but she was interrupted by Jungkook before she even started asking her question.
"Do you want to know the reason why I took you under my wing back then?" asked Jungkook. Now that Lisa was no longer here, the wall of ice returned to his eyes. Judging by how the ground was starting to freeze underneath his feet, he was being dead serious.
