I S U F D (Lisa X Mingyu)

39

Deep down in her bones, Lisa was a very conservative person. She didn't want to live together before marriage, and had never even considered it. She made an attempt to break free from Mingyu's arms, but to no avail, so in the end she simply stood there. "Upstairs and downstairs are so close together. Why should I move down?"

"It isn't the same." Mingyu still held her, his eyes burning as hot as her heart. "If you moved down, you wouldn't have to run up and down the stairs any longer."

"Oh, but I don't mind stairs at all! Don't think I don't know what your real motives are!"

Mingyu knew of her concerns. Looking down at her, he smiled. "I've moved into the guest room now. When you move in, you can have the master bedroom."

Lisa paused, looking at him in suspicion. "What's the point then?" Wasn't he just trying to get her into bed? Did he think she was an idiot?

Mingyu replied, "Of course there's a point. Plenty of people find that they can't accept the other's living habits after marriage and get into fights. If we live together, we can adapt to these changes in advance. It's like a preview of marriage."

Lisa: "..."

Did even marriage have to have a preview?

"And who said I wanted to marry you?" He had completely skipped over the entire proposal step!

Mingyu looked at her. "At our age, if we didn't intend on getting married, we might get arrested."

Lisa: "........."

Bah! As if the police would spend time on you!

"When one arrives at the age of thirty, time becomes extremely precious. We've spent so much time on each other that we must take responsibility for each other. It would be a crime to do otherwise."

Lisa: "..."

Wake up, Mr. Kim!

She coughed, looked up, and smiled at Mingyu. "But here I am, only 18 years old. I still have plenty of time."

Mingyu: "..."

She could really get under his skin. "Wake up, Miss Manoban."

Lisa: "..."

"Woof woof woof!" Sunshine saw that the two were finally done kissing. Did you want to go home or not?

Lisa pushed Mingyu off and picked Sunshine's leash back up. "Let me think about it."

"I'll wait for the good news."

Lisa: "..."

By the time she got Sunshine back to 1908, Jihyo had already had a shower and was now lying on the living room sofa, applying a mask. When she saw Lisa coming in, she said rather archly, "It sure took you a long time to grab a dog."

"Um, ah..."

Jihyo scrutinized her, spotting the red marks on her neck with her sharp eyes. "Did the dog bite your neck?"

Lisa: "..."

"I'm gonna go shower!" She fled back to her room like the wind.

The next morning, she walked the dog with Mingyu and brought back breakfast. Jihyo had just awoken and was still in her pajamas, sitting at the table yawning. "Do you walk the dog so early every morning?"
