Yang Xiaoyuan saw that Lisa didn't look too happy, so she hurried to explain: "Senior sister, don't get the wrong idea, I didn't ride Jungkook's bicycle. We walked here together."

Jungkook nodded repeatedly, looking completely innocent.

Lisa took the bicycle handlebars from Jungkook and said in a muffled voice: "This is my brother's bike, I need to take it back."

Jungkook anxiously said: "Okay, you take it back first. I'll let your brother know and not forget about the basketball game tomorrow."

"Who said you and my brother are close?" Lisa sneered. "If you want to tell him, do it yourself. I'm not your messenger."

Seeing this, Yang Xiaoyuan worriedly asked: "Did I say something wrong to upset you, senior sister?"

This made Lisa even more irritated. Her innocent, pitiful look made it seem like Lisa was arrogantly bullying her on purpose.

Momo patted Lisa's hand and said: "How about this - since we can't use the bike and the junior sister doesn't want to take a taxi, let's walk and send the junior sister home together. We can count it as an evening stroll."

Lisa tried hard to signal Momo with her eyes that she didn't really want to stay any longer, but Momo ignored her and just stared at Yang Xiaoyuan with a meaningful smile.

Yang Xiaoyuan originally thought Lisa was leaving, and relaxed a little. Hearing Momo say this, her face fell: "It's not that I'm reluctant to take a taxi, it's just that I don't think it's necessary to waste money since it's not far."

"That's right, it's not far. We can just walk over."

"You don't need to bother sending me."

Momo turned to Jungkook directly: "Senior Jungkook, what do you think?"

Of course Jungkook wanted to spend more time with Lisa. After this she would be studying hard for the exam, so there would be few chances to meet.

"Let's go together," he said.

Since Jungkook said so, Yang Xiaoyuan no longer insisted. She still walked side by side with Jungkook in front, while Lisa and Momo followed behind.

Momo pulled Lisa to speed up their pace, inserting themselves between the other two. This made Lisa walk together with Jungkook, while she was next to Yang Xiaoyuan.

Jungkook pushed the bike with one hand and naturally held Lisa's hand with the other.

Lisa struggled hard, but his grip was too tight and he held her hand firmly, making it impossible for her to break free.

Holding her hand, Jungkook tucked it into his own pocket.

Lisa fiercely pinched his palm to punish him.

Meanwhile, Momo borrowed Yang Xiaoyuan's copy of The Collected Poems of Jigme Lingpa. She casually flipped through it and then handed it to Lisa, smiling and saying: "The junior sister is quite artistic."

Yang Xiaoyuan said: "It's not about being artistic. I've always really liked Jigme Lingpa. I feel his poems are very touching and heartfelt, and I resonate a lot with them. Although I'm from a small town, I still go online and discovered his poems there, which captivated me deeply."

Momo smiled: "If you're interested in him, when you get to university you'll have many chances to look up information about his life and works in the literature, which will be much more reliable than what you find online."

Yang Xiaoyuan sensed hostility from the two girls towards her, and bluntly responded: "I only like him because his poems are beautiful, nothing more."

"In recent years Jigme Lingpa has become a hype online, and many seemingly heartfelt famous quotes and verses attributed to him were actually fabricated by bored netizens." Lisa waved the book in her hand: "He's become over-commercialized now. The first poem in here isn't even written by him, did you know that junior sister?"
