The Best Of You | L.K Adaptation

Chapter 41

It was 9:30 pm when Lisa and Jungkook came out from the car theater.

Jungkook wanted to take Lisa home, but her house was too far away. Lisa was afraid that Jungkook would not be able to go home by MRT, thus she chose not to be escorted.

It just so happened that her mother was shopping nearby, so Lisa called and asked her mother to come and pick her up.

As soon as Lisa's mother received the call from her daughter, she immediately headed there within a few minutes of driving.

From afar, she could see her daughter standing in front of the HSBC Building and a tall boy standing beside her.

Her daughter was looking up and the boy was looking down, she could see the two of them were talking about something.

Mrs. Manoban couldn't help but smile when she saw this scene from a distance, she muttered to herself, "They look quite a match".

She parked her car on the side of the road and got out of the car.

Lisa was chatting with Jungkook, she hastily waved her hand as her eyes caught her mother's figure, "Mom".

Mrs. Manoban approached them with a smile on her face.

Lisa quickly grabbed her mother's hand and introduced, "Mom, this is Kookie".

Jungkook nodded politely to Mrs. Manoban, "Hello, Auntie".

Mrs. Manoban looked at Jungkook with a friendly smile, "Hello, Kookie. Lili always compliments you at home, it turns out you are really handsome".

Lisa was proud, "He is handsome".

Mrs. Manoban said, "Have you eaten yet? If not, I'll treat you to a meal. There's a very good seafood restaurant nearby".

Lisa replied, "We have eaten, we ate the cake I made".

Mrs. Manoban heard this, immediately burst into laughter. She looked at Jungkook, "You guys finished the cake? Is it good?"

Jungkook, "It's very good".

Mrs. Manoban smiled, "That's good then. Lili has been learning from me and practicing for a few days at home. For the sake of making the cake, last night she stayed up until three in the morning".

"Mom...." Lisa pulled her mother's hand gesturing not to say it.

Jungkook heard this, he was slightly stunned and looked at Lisa right away.

Lisa didn't want to tell Jungkook that she had put so much effort into the cake. She whispered, "Because my hands are so stupid...."

Mrs. Manoban chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter if your hands are stupid, you'll get used to it after making it a few times".

While speaking, Mrs. Manoban looked at Jungkook, "Jungkook, where do you live? I'll take you home".

Jungkook said, "No, Auntie. Thank you. I still have a matter to do, I'll just go home by myself".

Lisa looked at Jungkook, "What matter do you have?"

Jungkook said, "I have to meet someone. You go home first, I'll send you a message when I got home".

Lisa nodded, "Okay" After a short pause, she said again, "Happy birthday".

Jungkook looked at her and desperately wanted to hug Lisa. But since her mother was here, he didn't feel appropriate to do it and simply replied, "Go home".

"Then, we go home first, Kookie, you go home early too. At times, let Lili take you to visit our home" said Mrs. Manoban.

Jungkook nodded, "Thank you, Auntie".
