Chapter 18 - Yan Du Xian [Salted Pork Soup] (3)

With one hand covering an ear of her headset, Lisa listened to the sound of laughter coming from outside the soundproof room and in through her headphones.

"Hi," she replied. She was trying her best to stay calm and more calm, and as a result, her voice sounded rather feeble.

She never would have thought that he was Jungkook, that Jungkook was him... A few months ago, the very first time she saw Jungkook, she had been playing with her dog and had secretly criticized this man for his fondness of drinking yogurt with fruit chunks... And the time in the store, across the street from him, watching through the glass as he protected his female companion...

Jungkook smiled at her again before turning to the recording engineer and requesting, "Could I trouble you to let me listen to what was just recorded?"

"Everyone's?"

"Yes, everyone's."

He was very tall, so when he bent over to listen to the recording engineer playback the results of everybody's hard work, his hands were propped on the edge of the desk. Lisa pulled off her headphones, pushed open the door, and walked out the room. When she saw him there, his back facing her, she still felt this was all unimaginable.

A hand snaked up onto her shoulder, and then Jennie was next to her ear as she asked with a laugh, "What do you think? He's got some good looks, doesn't he? He isn't called 'Toupai' for no reason."

(⊙o⊙)...

"Mm-hmm... Very handsome." She lowered her voice when she said this.

She had not expected that just as she spoke the word, "handsome," Jungkook would happen to turn around and look at her...

Her heart skipped a half a beat again.

Was she afraid that he would recognize her?... Or was she hoping that he would recognize her?

She did not know. All she knew was that she was especially nervous right now, so nervous that she did not dare speak.

Jungkook's eyes fixed on her for a couple of seconds before he suddenly broke into a smile. Pulling a straw out from its plastic wrap, he stabbed it into the yogurt drink and took a sip. "Are you thinking we've seen each other before?"

A shocking sentence.

Lisa was so anxious she did not answer right away.

Everyone in the room started to get excited, as if they had discovered a big secret...

"

"Whoa!" Eunwoo exclaimed and then immediately ripped open a bag of potato chips. "You should have said something earlier. Before Lily got here, we were discussing where we should take her to eat and then how we would, in passing, indoctrinate her with your one-of-a-kind, incomparable, amazing guy image."

"Someone took 'a winding path to find his secluded little haven.' Oh yeah, winding path to a secluded haven [an indirect path to get to the ultimate result]. And we've been kept in the dark all along."

"Was it in a photo? Or a video?" Taehyung grinned at Toupai. "Did you secretly upload a video online? High def, no pixels, fully uncensored?"

"Taehyung!" Jennie scowled at him. "Don't talk mature subject matters!"

Everyone was getting more and more inappropriate with what they were saying.

Lisa could not carry on being shy any longer. She nodded and said, "I've seen you before, but I'm not sure if you still remember..."

"I remember." Jungkook seemed to be recalling the memory. "That day, you were holding a dog."

After he said this, he let out a little laugh.
