Pampered Wife's Counterattack | Book 3

534.Mid-term Examinations

She was ready to let go of the past simply because he had said a few words to help her obtain some compensation.

This indicated that… she actually paid attention to people’s merits.

He peeked at her stunning beauty. Her appearance was definitely compatible with Boss’s. Furthermore, it seemed like she had a wonderful character.

He suddenly felt some admiration for his boss’s insight.

She was truly an undiscovered gem. Right now, she shone bright and radiantly in a way that it couldn’t be hidden by anyone or anything.

Baekhyun could not accept this. Bambam’s mouth was much more vicious than his, yet he did not suffer any consequences. On the other hand, he had thirty laps to endure on his own…

“Bambam, watch Baekhyun well. As long as he is still breathing, he will only be allowed ten minutes for every meal and four hours to rest every night. All his remaining time should be spent in running.” Jungkook elaborated his order.

“Yes, Sir!” Bambam’s response was especially loud and clear. He dragged Baekhyun out of the building.

The living room was finally quiet again.

Lisa leaned into Jungkook’s embrace and asked lovingly. “Didn’t you leave for work? Why did you come back so quickly?”

“I missed you.” The deep longing in his gaze could not be concealed.

The few hours he had endured away from her had felt like days.

She tightened her arms around him. “Jungkook…”

He returned her embrace and pressed a doting kiss on her forehead.

The next day, it was Jing Hua University’s mid-term examinations.

Initially, it should have happened much earlier. However, not every university conducted mid-term examinations. Most universities even had decided to do away with this system.

Thus, Jing Hua University had spent some time debating if they needed to do the same. Eventually, they decided to go ahead with the plan of holding the mid-term examinations.

This was also why the examinations were delayed till today.

Jungkook personally drove Lisa to school. “Don’t worry too much about your results. I’m here.”

Lisa stood next to the window and blew him a kiss. “With your encouragement, I’ll definitely perform well.”

Jungkook received her kiss and his stern complexion turned suspiciously pink. “I’m not encouraging you.”

She smiled.

That was right. He was not encouraging her.

Instead, he stood in front of her and protected her from every possible harm. Even in her past life, he was loving her in his own ways.

Unfortunately, she never knew of this. Worse, she even hated him at the time.

As she took in his charming and stern features, her heart was filled with guilt.

In this life, she wanted to be an independent and capable woman even as she enjoyed his love and support.

Jungkook waited for Lisa's figure to disappear before he finally drove away.

Lisa did not allow him to arrange another bodyguard to follow behind her. It made her far too eye-catching and she could not relax through the day.

Furthermore, almost everyone believed that she was ugly. Even his enemies felt that there was no need to kidnap an ugly woman to threaten him with.

Thus, she would not become his weakness until her true appearance was revealed.

As Eunha was still in the midst of carrying out her scheme of tampering with her medicine, Lisa made sure to come to school with a thick layer of medicine on her face. Her true appearance could not be seen through it.

The moment she stepped into her classroom, a group of students gathered around her.

“Aiyo, Lisa, you actually dared to show up today?” Her roommate, Shuhua, began mocking her. “After you lose to your second sister, you’ll have to kneel down to her in front of Jeon Jungkook and address her as your grandmother, won’t you?”

Tzuyu approached them. “Shuhua, what do you mean by that? Our Lisa won’t lose!”

“Enough of that, Tzuyu. Even if you are on good terms with Lisa, it doesn’t change the fact that she is a terrible student. Her performance is always at the very bottom of the class. If I recall correctly, she failed miserably during the last semester. She hasn’t even taken the makeup exam for it. If she messes up her midterm examination, according to the Jing Hua University’s rules, she’ll lose the opportunity to take the makeup examinations.”
