Chapter 53 - "Lisa, are you forced to say that by
Mu Jungkook or... You are still mad at what happened two years ago?" (2)

Xu Lisa paused for a little bit in her tracks, put
on a serious look, and said to him, "Mr. Shen, we are
not that familiar. I think you should stop with these
suggestive jokes. I trust that you don't want another
incident like the one at the club to happen again..."

Shen Mingyu was to her right Hearing what she had
said, he changed direction and forced her into a
low-traffic area. "Lisa, are you forced to say
that by Mu Jungkook or.... you are still mad at what
happened two years ago?"

Two years ago. The time when the original owner
first debuted.

Xu Lisa, without giving away anything, asked,
"What happened two years ago?"

"I wish you had truly forgotten about it," said Shen Mingyu  with a hint of a smile on him. "We were both youth and vigorous. I will be the first to admit that it was my fault Lisa, I will do anything within my power to make up for you. What do you say?"

Xu Lisa looked squarely at him.

Shen Mingyu has always had a casual look on him as though nothing could bother him.

But now, he looked extremely sincere. She was almost convinced that he'd agree to whatever she said right now.

Xu Lisa felt that something bad must have
happened two years ago but she didn't believe Shen
Mingyu would tell her even if she asked. Luckily, Shen Mingyu's behavior right now also led her to believe that he would not use this to blackmail her.

She has time to slowly figure out what had happened. Xu Lisa's look relaxed and she smiled slightly. "I truly had forgotten."

Shen Mingyu was stunned for a few quick seconds then, sighing in resignation, said, "Okay. I believe you."

Xu Lisa nodded slightly and wanted to walk
around him and leave. He stopped her once again. "I
can't say I know what it is about Mu Jungkook that you find so attractive. To a point that you'd still stay with him willingly even after he has gone bankrupt. What I can tell you, however, is that he isn't as nice of a guy as you may think. If you are not happy, you can come to me anytime."

Xu Lisa could see from afar that Chang Yuqi
was trying to butter up to the director. She turned,
gave Shen Mingyu a sincere smile, and said, "Right back at ya, Mr. Shen. Chang Yuqi isn't a nice person either. Don't let she use you like a tool."

The filming carried on into the afternoon and the
weather became humid once again, as though the
nonstop thunder and rain were still not over yet.

Xu Lisa looked at the sky with melancholy. The
dark clouds that seemed to be hanging lower and
lower made her sigh.

The director was directing the positions of the
actors out in the field. He, too, looked up at the sky
when he saw Xu Lisa looking at it with resignation.

He thought about it for a little bit and said into a
megaphone, "Overcast weather like this give the
best lighting. Let shape up and aim to finish today's
shooting before the rain starts. The sooner we are
done, the sooner we can go home."

The actors and actresses, who haven't had lunch
yet didn't even have the energy to respond to
him. There were but a few small and scattered
acknowledgements.

During her free time in between reapplying her
makeup, Xu Lisa fished out her cellphone and took
a look. There wasn't anything else other than a few
WeChat messages from Lin Jennie confirming dates
and times with her.

Before Shen Mingyu showed up, Mu Jungkook would ask to have lunch with her from time to time.

After all, a "bankrupt and unemployed" individual has a lot more free time.

But now, Xu Lisa hadn't heard any words from
Mu Jungkook in a couple of days. In fact, she hasn't
heard anything from him since she had run into Bai Jimin and him in her fox form.

Was he busy with making his comeback or was it
because of what happened that day....
