Rock Sugar And Pear Stew | L.K Adaptation

Chapter 79

As the saying goes, "Death before dishonour" Chan honestly felt like smashing the keyboard under his fingers into Jungkook's face but considering their difference in physiques, he silently killed that thought.

"Thump, thump, thump, thump" Someone knocked on the door.

Jungkook raised his voice, "Come in".

The door opened a crack. Eunwoo stuck his head in and saw Jungkook. Thus, he walked into the room and said, "Bro, you're back, I want to see how you're doing".

Jungkook's eyes creased into crescents. He was about to speak when Eunwoo suddenly asked Eunwoo, "Do you have a girlfriend?"

Eunwoo was stunned by the question. "Ah? No. Why are you asking such a touchy question...."

"A trash like you with no girlfriend isn't fit to talk to our Ice God".

"What the fuck...." Eunwoo could not help cursing. Then, he looked at the smile on Jungkook's face and suddenly thought of a question. He asked, "Bro Kook, don't tell me that you only confirmed your relationship with sis-in-law today?"

Jungkook kept his smile. Feeling somewhat awkward, he pretended that he heard nothing, raised his head and took another swig of beer.

Eunwoo was tickled, "Seriously, so the past while, you've been fretting over an unconfirmed relationship? Do you even feel guilty for making me call her 'sis-in-law' for so long?"

Chan laughed while holding on to his belly. "Oh my! So you just got attached today after all? Jungkook, you're way too good at acting. Act again and I'll post your nude photos online!"

Jungkook pointed to the door and looked at Eunwoo silently.

"You heartless rat, tossing me away now that you're done using me". Eunwoo did not dare to truly rile Jungkook up beyond this casual criticism. After all, it was possible that sis-in-law could introduce a friend to him. With this thought, he slinked away obediently.

Though Jungkook did not manage to sleep much that night, he was not exhausted when he woke the next morning. Full of energy, he went to find Lisa for morning exercise.

When the two of them met, Jungkook wanted to hold Lisa's hand. However, she dodged away.

Jungkook's heart tightened. He asked, "Having second thoughts?"

"Jeon Jungkook". Lisa glanced left and right. "You have too many fans now. They're everywhere. Let's keep a low profile and not let people see in public, all right?"

After he sighed in relief, Jungkook agreed reluctantly despite feeling a little depressed,

He was extremely sullen that he could only see but not touch his girlfriend. As they walked on the road, he kept looking at her. Whenever Lisa unintentionally met his eyes, she felt that his blatant stare seemed as if he was wanted to swallow her up.

Lisa's first lesson in the morning was advanced mathematics. She attended the lesson with Park Chaeyoung at the Yifu building. After the class was over, she ran into Park Jimin who had class on the same level. Jimin pulled the two of them to place where no one was and asked, "Boss, I heard that you and Jeon----" Here, he suddenly raised one hand to his mouth and whispered softly, "You and Jeon Jungkook got together?"

Lisa scratched her neck with the tip of a finger, shied her face away with a smile and nodded.

Jimin looked at his boss's discomposed and gleaming eyes and how her cheeks were tinted a faint red from embarrassment. He suddenly felt very unaccustomed.

"Oh, my, god!" Jimin widened his eyes in exaggeration. "Boss, what happened to you? Acting so demure! No, this can't be real! Return that awe-inspiring boss to me! Ah! How did things turn out this way? Is this really the downfall of our Great Qing Dynasty? This old Minister is incompetent; I have failed the former emperor...." As he spoke, he pretended to dab his eyes with his sleeves.
