"What's going on?" Jungkook looked at the empty room and frowned.
"She just brought the bracelet I gave you and came to my jewellery store to pawn it for money. Sigh, how are you doing? Your wife has no money and now she has to sell jewellery. It's really sad."
"Get to the point, how much did she sell it for?" Jungkook's eyes were dark.
"Jeon Jungkook, don't you have anything to say?"
Taehyung raised his eyebrows and deliberately provoked him, "That's the Jade bracelet you gave her as a marriage present! She wants to secretly sell it for money. Aren't you angry?"
Jungkook said coldly, "Since I've already given it to her, it's her's. What does it have to do with me if she sells it?"
On the other end of the phone, Taehyung took off the silk gloves. He could almost imagine Jeon Jungkook's ice-cold face at this moment. He said with mixed feelings, "I bid 1.5 million yuan at the end. How's that? Does that show my loyalty to you?"
1.5 million yuan? Wouldn't that be enough to treat Lisa's mother's illness? There would still be some money left!
Jungkook gripped the phone tightly, his chin taut.
Immediately after, Taehyung 's tone changed. The corners of his mouth curled up and he raised his voice, "Fourth Master Jeon, guess what? She refused to sell it and took the bracelet back!"
Seeing that Jeon Jungkook didn't say anything, Taehyung continued to speak, "Jeon Jungkook, oh Jeon Jungkook, I think your wife is quite interesting. I thought she needed money, so I specially wanted to buy the Jade bracelet for a high price, 1.5 million yuan. She was shocked by the amount of money, but I didn't expect her to not sell it!"
On the other end of the phone, Taehyung was still chattering. Jungkook's emotions were unusually complicated at the moment.
He did not expect that Lisa would actually give up the 1.5 million yuan that was within her grasp and choose to keep the bracelet that he gave her. Such innocence and sincerity...
What about her dying mother's medical fees and her younger brother's tuition fees? He should be going to school at his age.
Thinking of this, Jungkook pitied Lisa. She clearly had many difficulties and grievances, yet she was still shouldering it all by herself.
She was really stupid... and heart-breaking at the same time!
Jungkook stretched his muscles, and he became determined.
Since his wife had secretly given up so much for him, then he should also do something that a husband should do!
First, he had to teach those traitorous and heartless members of the Mo family a good lesson!
"Taehyung , listen up. These few days, the Mo family will be busy buying land. Help me stop them, don't let them succeed!"
Jungkook's voice sank and he added, "Also, I will use your name to try to target Mo family's business everywhere and ruin their lives!"
"Alright! This is an easy task for me, Jeon Jungkook. You can rest assured! I will definitely complete this task well!" Taehyung smiled and patted his chest proudly.
"Wait, I have another task for you..." Jungkook's voice slowed down, and his expression showed a rare gentleness, he said, "Her mother and brother are currently in the hospital. I have to pretend I don't know right now. Please take good care of them for me."
Not long after hanging up the phone, Lisa returned to the brick house and met up with Jungkook, who was doing push-ups in the yard.
Lisa looked embarrassed and wanted to cover the wooden box in her hand with her body, but she found that Jungkook only glanced at her indifferently and then continued to bury himself in his workout.
Relieved, a faint smile appeared on Lisa's face. She entered the house and put away the Jade bracelet, then walked out and squatted beside Jungkook, who was doing push-ups. She asked gently, "I went into the city to buy some cooking ingredients. What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."
Jungkook paused for a moment, then turned to look at her. He noticed that Lisa was looking at him with a gentle expression. He could not help but feel his heart skip a beat. A strange, slightly palpitating feeling came over him again, and he immediately said stiffly, "Anything is fine."
"I see." Lisa rubbed her chin and frowned for a moment. It seemed that Jungkook did not mind eating anything. He had always been very easy-going. She could only take the initiative to ask him more.
"Then, gong bao chicken or braised pork ribs, you choose one." Lisa asked persistently.
Jungkook lowered his eyes and thought seriously. Then he nodded and said, "Then, braised pork ribs."
