Shen Jungkook fell into silence again. He stared at the sea in the distance for a long time, thinking about something.

Sang Lisa didn't say anything else as she stared at the sea in a daze.

She had thought that Shen Jungkook would be as cold, cruel, and unreasonable as he was in her dream. After all, he could be so cruel to the Han family.

The tragedy that had befallen the Han family still left a lingering fear in Sang Lisa's heart.

Han Shangrong had committed suicide by jumping off a building. The huge Kexing Group had collapsed. Moreover, Han Tianyi had turned from a rich young master to a homeless wanderer with nothing.

It was said that he had been kidnapped before and had lived a life worse than death for several days. No one knew who had kidnapped him. He suspected that it was Shen Jungkook, but he had no evidence.

After the Han family was in trouble, no one in Ming City dared to lend Han Tianyi a helping hand, for fear of offending Shen Jungkook and getting into trouble.

At that time, Wen Xu was in the United States. After hearing about the incident, he rushed back to Ming City and searched for a long time before he finally found Han Tianyi under a bridge.

His beard and hair were unkempt with tattered clothes and dull eyes. He was curled up in a pile of homeless people, completely losing his former elegance.

His body was covered in unformed scabs and some of the wounds had even festered. His tragic appearance almost made Wen Xu cry.

Han Shangrong was indeed guilty, but Han Tianyi was innocent. Shen Jungkook had destroyed the Han family, Kexing Group, and Han Tianyi's life.

Every time Sang Lisa thought about it, she would feel a chill in her heart. Subconsciously, Shen Jungkook's current image was almost the same as the Shen Jungkook in her dream.

However, he seemed to be more restrained and gentle than she had imagined.

The ringing of the phone broke the silence between the two. It was a call from Xie Shi'an.

"Lili, your colleagues from your department said that you left in a hurry this afternoon? Is there something wrong?"

"Don't worry, just a small issue."

Sang Lisa glanced at Shen Jungkook. She didn't know how long Shen Jungkook was going to stay at the beach. She was afraid that Xie Shi'an would make a wasted trip, so she wanted to ask him to postpone the dinner.

However, she was afraid that Xie Shi'an would be disappointed. Just as she was thinking about how to phrase her words, Xie Shi'an said, "Are you still going back to the hospital? I'll be waiting for you there."

Sang Lisa hesitated for a moment. "Shi'an, I might be very late..."

She still had to go to the small apartment to check on Wen Xu's situation.

"It doesn't matter, I'll just wait." Xie Shi'an said warmly.

After she hung up, Sang Lisa noticed that Shen Jungkook was looking at her. "Are you busy tonight?"

Sang Lisa replied vaguely, "I'm meeting someone for dinner at my house."

Shen Jungkook was silent for a while. "Let's go. I'll send you home."

Sang Lisa was surprised.

She thought that if Shen Jungkook wanted her to come to the beach, he would at least ask why she had lied to him.

But he didn't pursue the matter. Instead, he only asked if she was doing well and what kind of nightmare she had. She had thought that she would be greeted with a storm, but this was nothing, not even a light breeze.
