Chapter 76

The next day, Lisa remembered the mission of winning a medal that Coach Park gave her. When she went to search for the results of last year's National University Championship, her young teenage heart heart got a huge shock.

This was a national competition where numerous top professional athletics would represent their affiliated universities. As a result, they level of competition was greatly raised.

Though Lisa had the habit of boosting, She was clear of her capability. Based on her current performance, she would have difficulties entering the final's alone, not to mention obtaining a medal.

Ahhhh!

Jungkook tried comforting her after seeing how nervous she was, "There's still time". As he spoke, he used his finger to prod her cheek. Soft, smooth and bouncy, the face of a teenage girl was really nice to touch.

Lisa ducked her head to escape him. "Shoo!"

Jungkook's lips curved.

Looking at Jungkook, Lisa thought, why can't you confess to me already? Hurry up and confess!

Truth to be told, Jungkook was in a bit of a dilemma.

He did not know whether he should confess or apologize first.

....

Just like this, the two of them maintained a delicate balance. Neither of them advanced nor retreated.

The Chinese Ice Hockey Championship ended a few days later. The RCU ice hockey team placed fifth in the country. This was a pretty good result beyond the expectations of the club and the school. Right after the competition ended, some local companies contacted the school to sound out the cost of product sponsorships.

What made the club and the school even more delighted was Jungkook's personal appeal. The tickets for competitions which he appeared in always sold very well. Sensing a business opportunity here, some online merchants began selling unofficial merchandise such as the same jersey that Jungkook wore and "Jeon Jungkook teenage pink" tapes. In the end, their sales were actually quite good.

All these showed his commercial value.

The club held several meetings with the school to discuss how to manage Jungkook. After their meeting, they consulted Jungkook and expressed that they would respect his opinion.

Jungkook only had one opinion.

"I don't wish to interact closely with the fans and hope to maintain some distance from them".

"Why?"

"Because....someone will get jealous".

....

After the competition, the ice hockey team organized a spring outing to a holiday villa. As they were allowed to bring their family, Jungkook asked Lisa if she wanted to go.

Lisa was exhausted by her recent training and her mind was tightly strung like a bow. She agreed gladly to the rare opportunity to relax.

There were numerous interesting activities at the villa such as fishing picking fruits, barbequing and singing.

Baskets in hand, Jungkook and Lisa went to pick strawberries. As the strawberry season was almost over, people were not as interested in picking them. There were only two of them in the polytunnel. Lisa ate as she picked along and her basket ultimately remained empty. After a while, she went over to Jungkook and commanded, "Hey Dog, close your eyes".

Jungkook closed his eyes. Not knowing what she was going to do, his heartbeat quickened and he pressed his lips together nervously.

Lisa stuffed an enormous strawberry into his mouth.
