256. Bring Her Closer, a Little at a Time

Mu Jungkook looked outside but did not say a word.

He leaned back in his seat and shut his eyes.

Gu Jimin knew what this meant and kept quiet as well.

He drove forward and stopped before Mu Jungkook's house.

He had just opened the car door when he saw a black object bounce up.

"Meow."

Small Lock looked towards him with some vigilance.

Mu Jungkook saw the cat and was about to pick it up when Small Lock hopped off excitedly.

Gu Jimin got a little bag of dried fish from inside the car.

Mu Jungkook saw him pick up the bits of fish to lure the cat.

As expected, the black cat came running back quickly.

Small Lock looked wary but also appealed by the
treat.

Perhaps it did not sense much danger, as it relaxed
and came forward to take a nibble.

With the little piece in its mouth, the black cat took off again.

It only stopped amongst the bushes before enjoying
its treat

Mu Jungkook's expression darkened as he watched.

"This cat doesn't look like it's owned by you." Gu Jimin remarked. "It's beginning to resemble that woman."

Mu Jungkook did not say anything as he headed for the door.

He was being too anxious.

That woman, in some sense, was like an insecure cat.

The only way to get her was to bring her closer, a
little at a time.

Li Lisa only realized that she'd been perspiring when she got home.

She was all sweaty and sticky, but she felt all empty
on the inside.

After showering, she realized that Old Master was
looking all smiley.

Upon seeing her, he said, "Lili, I've already settled the paperwork for your enrollment-Guang City Theatrics Academy, Performance course, Year One."

Li Lisa was shocked. "When was that?"

Old Master Li said, "I got your father to settle it, but
he kept procrastinating. So I decided to get it done
myself."

"Oh..." Li Lisa responded. "Grandpa, I'm a little tired, I'll go upstairs and rest first."

Old Master Li saw that something was off with her
and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? You don't
seem too happy."

"It's nothing, I'm just tired."

"Oh..." Old Master Li nodded and looked at her.

"Then rest early."

"Yes."

Li Lisa returned to her room and looked at the window.

She reached out and shut it, leaving just a small gap
for ventilation.

She then got into bed and closed her eyes.

For the next week or so, Li Lisa was extremely busy.

The shooting for the "Dream Slayer" commercial and the Manya Chocolates commercial turned her into a star overnight.
