Hear My Heart: My World Falls into the River of Love /Liskook Adaptation/

Chapter 28 - So, she didn't have feet in two boats?

At 11:00PM, Starlight Plaza was still brightly lit. The crowd celebrating Christmas in the plaza were still explosively cheering, repeatedly causing the security guards on duty and the local law enforcement to raise eyebrows.

Walking beside him, Lisa put her coat on and asked Jungkook, "What did Director Jeon want to talk with me about?"

Jungkook smiled upon hearing her words. Handing over the paper bag he had been carrying the entire time, he said, "Merry Christmas."

Lisa hesitantly took the offered paper bag and looked inside. "This is the dessert store's red velvet cake!"

"Mn, last time, didn't you say you wanted to eat Jin's cake?"

"Yes!" Lisa carefully held the cake, her eyes shining. "Very beautiful. This is the limited edition Christmas red velvet from the UK store. I heard that it's very difficult to get!"

Jungkook said, "I had their pastry chef help save me one. I just went to go get it."

"Thank you, Director Jeon." Lisa was extremely excited, but she didn't forget to ask him the price. "This cake wasn't cheap, right? I'll pay you back."

Jungkook couldn't help but chuckle. "This is my Christmas gift to you. Why must you repay?"

Lisa was immediately embarrassed. "But, I didn't prepare a Christmas gift for you..."

"No need." Jungkook softly smiled and said, "Today, you all have worked hard on my behalf. How can I be so shameless and accept a gift from you?"

Lisa blinked rapidly. "So, all the employees received this?" Then Director Jeon truly did spend money.

Jungkook looked at her and said, "This is specifically gifted to you. Their pay got increased."

Lisa: "..."

She originally wanted to smile, but with Jungkook's gaze on her, her heart once again began to incessantly throb. Pu-tong. Pu-tong. It was as if Father Christmas' little deers had dashed into her heart.

Suddenly, something ice-cold fell onto her cheek. She raised her head to look and realized that it was actually snowing.

"It's snowing." Lisa extended her left hand. A sparkling, translucent snowflake floated onto her palm. The snowy Christmas night seemed magical, momentarily causing the young people in the plaza to burst with enthusiasm. Joyous shouts rose and fell in succession as lovers came together and kissed as though there were nobody else present, wildly showering dog food.

Afterwards, they were separated by the security guards on duty who braved the wind and snow.

Under the work of the civil police, the plaza was not considered too disorderly. Lisa turned her head back and just happened to meet Jungkook's gaze. His figure had become slightly fuzzy because of the delicate snow, but the look in his eyes seemed to have become affectionate.

Lisa was indescribably nervous. According to the several years she had spent drawing shoujo manhua, this setting and mood was simply the first choice to confessing.

The two of them stared at each other like this for a while. Jungkook's thin lips slightly opened as he finally began to speak. "I..."

Lisa's ringtone suddenly began playing, interrupting his next words. She quickly took out her cell phone from her bag and awkwardly smiled at Jungkook. "E-excuse me."

At first, she wanted to hang up right away, but she saw that it was Rose who called. Afraid that something had gone wrong, she said, "I need to take this call, please wait a moment."

Jungkook smiled at her and indicated for her to do as she wished. Lisa walked two steps to the side and accepted the call. Without giving her time to speak, Rose rapidly began speaking into her ear. "Lisa! DID YOU KNOW Jungkook IS Justin S.?!?!?!"
