His tone was casual, as if he was coaxing a child, but the low and relaxed voice gave her a gentle illusion.

Lisa was stunned for a moment.

It was not until Jungkook squatted down and touched her ankle that a piercing pain struck her and she suddenly came back to her senses, "Ouch, ouch, ouch, it hurts!"

She had always been afraid of pain. Just a little on her finger would make her fuss for a long time, let alone twisting her foot.

Her eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

Jungkook withdrew his hand, gently pulled down the pant leg to cover the exposed ankle. He stood up and asked, "Should I carry you down?"

Although it was a question, he had already turned around and squatted down.

He had a well-proportioned figure, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, with the combat uniform accentuating his tall and heroic aura. When he squatted down, through the clothes, one could still see the tight lines of his shoulders, hinting at the hidden strength.

Lisa hesitated for a moment and then cautiously climbed on his back.

This was her first time lying on a man's back; the touch was unfamiliar, not soft at all.

She felt a bit... uncomfortable and strange.

Before she could fully process her emotions, Jungkook suddenly hooked her legs and stood up. Lisa's center of gravity was lifted, and she exclaimed in alarm, quickly clutching his neck tightly.

"You can put more force if you want," Jungkook took a step forward and said calmly, "If you strangle me to death, we won't be able to go down the mountain."

Lisa was so annoyed that she let go of her grip and gave him a light punch on the shoulder.

She had forgotten her initial discomfort.

In the club's hall, Lisa changed her clothes and sat on the sofa, carefully propping up one foot.

Jungkook glanced at her and found her little actions strangely cute, his lips curled unconsciously.

When Lisa saw his smile, she felt it was suspicious.

She grabbed a throw pillow, "Jungkook, are you secretly enjoying my misfortune now that I twisted my foot?"

"If I were secretly enjoying it," Jungkook raised an eyebrow lightly, "I would make you hop down the mountain on one foot and record a video."

"Hmph!" Lisa clenched her fist and hit the throw pillow.

Jungkook felt that she was treating the throw pillow as him.

Sure enough, Lisa became more spirited as she continued to hit the throw pillow.

He almost laughed out loud as bent down to snatch the throw pillow away from her, "You really have so much energy; I should have made you hop down the mountain."

Lisa reached out to grab it, but Jungkook lifted it gently, and she missed.

"Alright, take a rest for a while. I'll inform the boss and take you to the hospital," Jungkook acted as if he wasn't just teasing her, and handed her the throw pillow again.

Although it was he who had taken her stuff first, in the end, he acted as if he was magnanimous by giving it back.

Lisa refused to take it back, "You keep it."

The club's owner, observing from afar, felt that the two of them were arguing and quickly walked over, "What's going on?"

"It's nothing, she twisted her foot. I'm taking her to the hospital," Jungkook put the throw pillow aside, "Tell Mingyu I took the car."
