Rebirth Space Intellectual Woman || LK ADAPTATION [ BOOK - 1 ]

Love Rivals

Lisa smiled when Sister Sooyoung mentioned Grandpa Tang’s name. The effect of mentioning the legendary doctor was very good based on the fact that she saw the eyes of her guests sparkling. Lisa gave a thumbs up to Sister Sooyoung.

“So, today we have invited Doctor Tang Jiang Man to cut the ribbon to indicate that this ryokan is officially open. Please, let us invite our Doctor Tang Jiang Man together with his granddaughter, Miss Tang Lalisa onto the stage.” Sister Sooyoung said.

Grandpa Tang stood up together with Lisa and walked onto the stage. When Lisa was on the stage, her eyes caught someone and her eyes immediately lit up. Jungkook was here. Even though he was late, he managed to squeeze some time to come here to celebrate the meaningful day with her.

“Now, Doctor Tang Jiang Man will cut the ribbon.” Sister Sooyoung announced making Lisa look at her grandfather.

Grandpa Tang took the scissor and cut the ribbon and the audience burst out into applause. Lisa was very happy to have officially opened her ryokan. She hoped that the ryokan would stand long and give great benefits to others.

“Thank you, Doctor Tang Jiang Man for officially opening our ryokan.” Sister Sooyoung thanked Grandpa Tang.

Grandpa Tang and Lisa left the stage.

“You can eat our refreshment. We have prepared some dessert from Japan for you to taste as well as some traditional Chinese desserts. So, please don’t worry. While you are eating, we will open the questioning session for everyone. Feel free to ask any questions, if the questions are in our range of answering, we will answer it.” Sister Sooyoung said.

This was the moment that the reporters had been waiting for.

“Miss Chui, can we know why this Saisei Ryokan was opened here?” One of the reporters asked.

“Our owner comes from this town. He wanted to promote the beauty of his hometown, that is why he opened the ryokan here.” Sister Sooyoung answered smoothly.

“Could it be that Doctor Tang Jiang Man is the owner?”

“Our owner does not want his identity to know by others. So, I will leave it up to your imagination.” Sister Sooyoung smiled.

“What are the benefits that you mentioned earlier?”

“When you enjoy our onsen, your body will get the benefit as well. You might feel your body energize and your skin becomes smooth. You can try our onsen to see more benefits.”

There were a lot of questions asked by the reporters as well as the guests. Sister Sooyoung handled it pretty well.

Lisa had left everything up to Sister Sooyoung to handle while she watched from the sidelines. She stood up wanting to find Jungkook. She found Jungkook who surround by girls but they did not approach him closely due to Jungkook’s face. Jungkook looked like he would kill someone that came closer to him.

Earlier, there was a brave girl that approached Jungkook, wanting to talk to him. He did not respond even a little bit to the girl. When the girl wanted to come closer, He released the murderous aura. The girl turned paled when facing it and after that, she ran away.

Lisa made her way to Jungkook. The girls that surrounded Jungkook wanted to give her a warning. But Lisa ignored them and made her way to him.

“Thank you for coming.” Lisa said to Jungkook.

“Of course I will come. I promised you after all.” Jungkook replied with a gentle smile on his lips while looking at Lisa lovely.

The person who had given out the murderous aura was now smiling gently and that made the girls that looked at them felt unreal. From this, they knew the man already had his sweetheart.

“Lili, you look very beautiful.” Jungkook praised Lisa.

“Thank you.” Lisa said in blushing. The feeling when the beloved one praised was very different.

“I do not want others to see you like this.” Jungkook mumbled the sentence slowly.

Lisa did not hear the sentence. “What?”

“Nothing.” Jungkook dodged the question. “The ceremony is perfect. Everyone looks very interested in coming to this place.”

“Of course.” Lisa said proudly.

“I also want to come here again so that we can continue our last session.” Jungkook whispered softly to Lisa’s ear.

When Lisa heard Jungkook’s whisper, she remembered what they were doing in the onsen that night. It made her turn red immediately.

“You!!!” Lisa pouted. It was very embarrassing to remember it, but Jungkook still mentioned it in order to make her feel shy.

“You will not feel embarrassed again when we practiced it together.” Jungkook shamelessly said.

“No, no, no... Don’t talk about it anymore.” Lisa was very shy, even her ears were turning red.

Jungkook laughed when seeing his beloved Lili turning red because of him.

“No wonder, I could not find Lisa. Turned out you are busy flirting with Brother Jungkook here.” Rosé appeared.

“Then you should not be disturbing us.” Jungkook said. He could not flirt with his beloved Lili when Rosé was here.

Rosé smirked. She just wanted to disturb the two of them. She had already observed them flirting for a long time. She watched Lisa turned to red when Jungkook whispered something to her.

“Rosie, don’t leave.” Lisa pulled Rosé’s hand. She did not want Rosé to leave her with this shameless wolf.

Jungkook gave a look to Rosé. He wanted Rosé to leave him alone with his beloved Lili. Rosé understood the look given by Jungkook, but she just ignored the man. Once again, he gave her a look, now with a little warning.

‘If you don’t want to leave, let’s look forward to your training.’ Jungkook thought as he smiled coldly at Rosé.

Rosé felt a chill down her back. She did not want to die first, so she had to make a run for it.

“Lisa, my stomach feels unwell. I want to go to the toilet,” Rosé said with real expression.

Unknown to Jungkook and Rosé virtual bickering, Lisa let Rosé’s hand go.

“Then go,” Lisa rushed her friend to go.

Jungkook had successfully made Rosé leave them alone.

....

Mingyu also came to Lisa’s Saisei Ryokan opening ceremony as he successfully managed to get one of the invitation cards.

Like Jungkook, he was also surrounded by the girls that were attracted to him, but he also did not like this kind of attraction. If Lisa was attracted to him, that would be nice.

His face was known in the business industries, so, everyone in the business industry knew him and came to greet him.

“You came,” Grandpa Feng greeted Mingyu.

Grandpa Feng knew Mingyu as he was also Mingyu’s competitor. He felt that Mingyu was very amazing because he managed to be at the top after only five years in the business world. He was very talented in managing his business.

“President Feng,” Mingyu greeted Grandpa Feng back.

“I’m surprised to see you here,” Grandpa Feng said.

“I’m kind of interested in seeing this type of hotel,” Mingyu answered it simply.

His answer just made it seem as if he was only interested in the hotel, however, he was really only there to see Lisa.

“Oh, I forget to introduce you guys. Jiang Man, this is President Mingyu, he is a businessman like me. He is an extremely talented man. President Qin, this is Doctor Tang Jiang Man. Well, he is a doctor,” Grandpa Feng introduced the two of them.

“Oh, so young yet very talented. Nice to meet you, President Qin,” Grandpa Tang nodded.

“I have also heard about the legendary doctor, Doctor Tang, nice to meet you too,” Mingyu looked at Grandpa Tang. This old man helped Lisa by adopting her as his granddaughter. He had a good impression of Grandpa Tang.

“Grandfather.” Lisa approached Grandpa Tang.

“Lisa! Oh, you are here too.” Grandpa Tang looked at the one behind Lisa.

Jungkook just greeted them.

“We meet again, miss,” Mingyu said to Lisa with a faint smile on his lips.

“Do you know each other?” Grandpa Feng asked when he heard what Mingyu had said that to Lisa.

“We meet once before, I bumped to him while out for a run,” Lisa explained to them simply.

“Yeah,” Mingyu confirmed it.

Jungkook stared at Mingyu, there was something about him that made him not like this man. However, he could not explain why. He quickly held Lisa’s hand.

Lisa felt weird with Jungkook’s behavior, but she did not pull back her hand, she just let Jungkook continue to hold it.

Mingyu saw them holding hands and narrowed his eyes. He did not like it but he did not say anymore. It was not his Lisa yet. ‘Just wait until Lisa becomes mine.’ Mingyu gave a look to Jungkook.

Jungkook was able to understand what Mingyu was thinking and returned a look of his own. ‘She only will be mine forever,’ Jungkook gave a provoking smile to Mingyu.

The old men watching the two young men understood the situation and the looks that passed between the two. This President Qin was interested in Lisa. Grandpa Tang did not want to interfere in this matter. He would hand it to Lisa. After all, it was Lisa’s choice.

Lisa on another hand did not notice anything going on at all, she was kind of stupid when she came to this matter.

“You can come to enjoy the onsen. It is very good for your body,” Lisa said to Mingyu.

“Of course, if I have time for it, I will surely come here,” Mingyu did not reject the invitation from Lisa. It might even give him the chance to get closer to Lisa.

.....

“I never thought that President Qin would be interested in your granddaughter,” Grandpa Feng said to Grandpa Tang when they left Mingyu.

“My granddaughter is a very beautiful girl, it is no wonder that, that man is interested in her,” Grandpa Tang said proudly.

Grandpa Feng rolled his eyes, this man really loved his adopted granddaughter. Such a doting grandfather.

“Jungkook will have a rival,” Grandpa Feng said.

“Humph, that brat needs to work hard to make sure my granddaughter will be his,” Grandpa Tang said.

Even though Grandpa Tang did not like Jungkook much, he was kind of satisfied with Jungkook. He knew that Jungkook would be able to protect Lisa as he was a soldier. So, Grandpa Tang knew what kind of man he was.

On another hand, Mingyu was a businessman and Grandpa Tang knew what kind of personalities a businessman had. He was also a businessman, not to mention, Mingyu was very successful in his business at such a young age. Grandpa Tang really wondered how he managed to do it. However, as he said before, he would trust Lisa’s choice.

Mingyu looked at Jungkook. Right now, Lisa’s heart belonged to this man. Mingyu indeed felt that this man in front of him was strong, but he was stronger than him. He believed Lisa would choose him in the end.

Jungkook also looked at Mingyu. The two men were battling in silence. Jungkook knew this man wanted to snatch his beloved Lili. Humph, it was not going to happen. He would protect his beloved Lili from this man.

Ignoring the silence battle, Lisa pulled Jungkook’s hand. The opening ceremony was complete and the guests could enjoy the beauty of the wisteria flowers until the estimated time, so, Lisa wanted to have some time alone together with Jungkook.

“Lili, you really look very beautiful.” Jungkook praised Lisa again.

“Thanks again. Kookie, did you complete your mission?” Lisa remembered that Jungkook told her that he was going to go on a mission.

“Yeah. I came back yesterday.” Jungkook answered.

“Then you must be tired.” Lisa showed a worried look on her face.

“Yeah. Very tired...” Jungkook paused, his hand touched Lisa’s face. “But seeing you looking so beautiful made my tiredness faint.”

“Kookie, you did improve on your flirting.” Lisa commented.

“Only for you, Lili.” Jungkook smiled.

That seductive smile again, Jungkook always liked to attack her with that smile. Even though she saw that smile many times, she was still affected by it.

Seeing Lisa lost in her thoughts, Jungkook pulled Lisa in his arms. He hugged her from the back. Lisa was stunned when she felt her body being hugged, however, she did not reject it. She did enjoy Jungkook’s hug. All of a sudden, the fragrance of lotuses attacked her nose.

“Kookie, are you wearing perfume?” The question appeared from Lisa’s mouth so suddenly.

Jungkook did not mind. “Why? Do I stink?”

“So, you did use perfume.”

“No, I’m not.” Jungkook quickly clarified it.

“Huh? You don’t wear anything?” Lisa confirmed it again.

“No, I’ve never worn any perfume before.” Jungkook said.

“Then, it is your body odor?” Lisa smiled.

“Huh, my body odor? What’s kind of odor?”

“It is a secret. The only thing I can tell you is I really like it.” Lisa showed a smile.

Jungkook looked at the smiling woman in his arms. He turned his beloved Lili so that she was facing him and then he began to attack his beloved Lili’s lips. At first, his beloved Lili was shocked but after a few seconds, she accepted it. She responded to his kiss.

When Jungkook released Lisa, there was a trace of saliva lingering around their lips. Jungkook licked his lips using his tongue making him looked very seducing. Lisa swallowed her own saliva.

“Here you are. I have been looking for you, Lisa.” The voice of Rosé made Lisa freeze.

She was kissing Jungkook in the middle of broad light. It was very embarrassing.

“What are guys doing here?” Rosé just teased the two of them.

However, seeing Lisa’s reaction, Rosé was surprised. “You two...” She did not finish the sentence when the devil was looking at her like he wanted to kill her.

“You two can continue, but remember to get a room when you two can’t hold back. Don’t do it here.” Rosé managed to say before she ran away as if her life depended on it.

Lisa rolled her eyes at Rosé’s retreating figure. That girl really...

“Why don’t we continue as Rosie said?” Jungkook said.

“No.” Lisa looked at Jungkook.

Jungkook laughed. Teasing his beloved Lili really made his day complete, he really could not wait for his beloved Lili to be his one day. His beloved Lili had ambition. He did not want to destroy that because that made his beloved Lili looked sparkling. When his beloved Lili got what she wanted, Jungkook would make his beloved Lili walk toward marriage.

Even though the rivals would appear in the future, he was confident that he would be the one walking together with his beloved Lili.

Not far from Jungkook and Lisa’s place, there was someone that was leaning against a tree. He was there from the beginning. He was following Lisa and Jungkook, but he did not expect that Lisa was already falling in love with Jungkook.

The man was Mingyu. He thought Jungkook was still chasing Lisa, but when he saw the two of them were kissing passionately and seeing Lisa did not reject and responded to the kiss made his guess true.

Mingyu sighed. Why was he so late in meeting her in this lifetime? If he had met her first, she might have fallen in love with him first, however, he would not give up. Because of the past lifetime, he could not make her become his, he would try harder in this lifetime.

Mingyu did not want to be a fool anymore, watching someone take Lisa from him and let her get hurt. He would not allow that to happen again. He would fight for her, no one could stop him. It was his promise after meeting her again in this lifetime.
