Chapter 56

Jeon Jungkook and Lisa walked hand in hand into the training base, drawing the eyes of many people along the way. Most of the people in the base knew Jungkook. Now seeing him leading a girl in here without any prior warning, they were all surprised. Only team leader Xu looked smug, his face screaming 'I really know so much', when he saw them. He smiled at Jungkook. " Jungkook, so this is your girlfriend?" As he said this, he visually scanned Lisa.

"Yes." Jungkook's response was clear and direct.

"Cough." Lisa did not know how he could so easily adapt to their new relationship. Right now, her emotions were still struggling in the awkwardness caused by shyness, unable to settle. Thus, her face had been red all the way here. To avoid others seeing her red face, she had had to keep her head lowered.

Team Lead Xu scrutinized Lisa and said with some doubt, "This little lady looks rather familiar..."

Lisa introduced herself. "Hello, Team Lead Xu, I'm Lisa, a reporter with 'Sports Weekly'."

"A reporter, eh?" Team Lead Xu coughed and instinctively became a little stern. "Lisa, don't take any photos while you're inside. This is a rule."

"Yes, yes, I know. Don't worry!" Lisa nodded emphatically.

After Team Lead Xu let them go, Jungkook led Lisa into the training hall. The swimming pool was in the middle of the training hall, and around it were individual training rooms. Each respective training room served a different function; there were all kinds of training equipment. Of course, Lisa only peeked inside the rooms from the doorways. She wasn't here to sightsee today.

She followed Jungkook all the way to his training room.

RM had more than one athlete under him, so there were currently other people inside the training room as well. When Jungkook returned, everyone inside the training room turned to look at Lisa.

"Hi, nice to meet you all." Lisa waved at them. She tried to tug her other hand out of Jungkook's grasp but did not succeed...

RM knew the truth so he wasn't too surprised, but the others were rather shocked and were staring at Lisa curiously.

"My girlfriend." Jungkook explained to his fellow trainee brothers. He had been waiting a long time for this moment, to announce to others that she was his girlfriend. At this moment, actually saying the words gave him an immense sense of satisfaction, even his very walk had an extra flair.

The crowd nodded dumbly, but continued to gawk at them with faces eager for gossip, hoping for more explanations.

RM frowned and growled, "What're you all staring for? Train! No food unless you finish all your training tasks!"

This threat was met with a chorus of groans but had instant effect — everyone turned back to their tasks and continued their training.

RM looked at Jungkook with a half-smile. "I thought you wouldn't even coome back."

Jeon Jungkook smiled. "How could I do that? Even if I wanted to, my Lisa wouldn't let me."

Lisa's eyebrows jumped. She really felt like stuffing his mouth shut.

RM couldn't bear to listen any more to this. "Showing off so much just because you're dating now!"

In a roomful of bachelors, Jungkook merely grinned and said nothing.

He helped Lisa find a chair for her to sit on, and then he continued with his afternoon training tasks. In actual fact, he did not have many training tasks left for the afternoon. He was already done with his third set of medicine ball training, and his next task was several sets of balance exercises. Single-leg balance exercises, followed by belly-boarding with his hands behind his head and turning side-to-side, 30 times, 3 sets; hands behind his head, abdomen crunches for his elbow to meet the opposite knee, 30 times, 3 sets. After that, stretches. These exercises that seemed relatively simple to him were not that easy for the average person. Even watching from this side, Lisa felt her muscles aching in sympathy...
