Chapter 44 : I Haven't Given Up Yet

____________________________________

"President Jeon suddenly asked me where my sister was just now. I'm confused."

Before Jungkook could say anything, Taehyung said, "This kid fell down. I helped him up, but President Jeon said that he saw my sister helping the kid. Even the kid himself said that I helped him, not my sister."

Mingyu was startled. He looked at Jungkook with a complicated expression.

There was one time when Jungkook didn't sleep for seven days and seven nights as the pain in his body acted up. He was so dazed that he mistook Mingyu for Lisa, holding Mingyu's hand.

However, Jungkook's condition had been good for the past two days, and his headache hadn't acted up.

Could it be that Jungkook's condition had worsened? Even if he didn't have a headache, could he be in a trance?

Mingyu smiled at Taehyung apologetically. "I'm sorry. Maybe he's too tired and his eyes are playing tricks now."

Taehyung shrugged his shoulders. "It's a good thing it's me. If it were anyone else, they would've been shocked."

Jungkook looked at Taehyung with a dark expression. "What're you doing in Busan?"

"The ocean view in Busan is pretty good, so I'm here for a walk." Taehyung's tone was indifferent. "Isn't President Jeon here too?"

The conversation between the two of them had an inexplicable sense of confrontation.

Mingyu quickly changed the topic. "President Kim, are you also taking the eight o'clock flight back to Incheon City? Let's chat while we walk."

Taehyung hesitated for a moment, and he inadvertently glanced at the nearby bathroom, but he still nodded. "Alright," he said.

The three of them left for a long time.

Lisa's phone rang. "We're boarding now. Lali, you can leave."

Only then did Lisa dare to come out of the washroom. She held her chest and heaved a long sigh of relief.

That was close, that was really close!

It had been so many years that she had almost forgotten about Jungkook's existence.

Who would've thought that she would run into Jungkook while seeing Taehyung off? She was really scared out of her wits.

Fortunately, Taehyung's reaction was fast. The child was also smart and quickly read the situation. Otherwise, it would've been really bad.
