When the hooligans saw that Lisa was about to leave, they immediately became anxious and started shouting even louder.
Lisa quickly covered her ears from their lewd words.
Seeing that Lisa had left, the hooligans were very displeased. They scolded, “This slut, how dare she look down us. How was she willing to marry someone like Jungkook?”
The leader of the hooligans had a vicious expression. He smiled evilly and said, “You act so high and mighty now, but when the time comes, you’ll have to cry and beg us...”
“Everyone gather around. I have a plan for tonight. Let’s all get back at her...”
Lisa heaved a sigh of relief when she walked out of the sight of the hooligans. She put down her hands that were covering her ears tightly.
It was not until today that Lisa saw how real hooligans acted. Lisa thought that Jungkook’s personality was too serious and elegant for him to be a hooligan. Compared to these hooligans, he was so different.
As for the people who talked about how he was a bastard, how rotten he was, and how he was a hooligan, in her opinion, it was completely nonsense!
Thinking of this, Lisa hurried home. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a hunchbacked figure. She stopped in her tracks and hurriedly went forward to help her. “Granny Liu, why didn’t you bring your crutches out!”
At this moment, Lisa was supporting Granny Liu. She was an old lady who lived not far from the brick-and-tile house of the Luo family. Her daughter worked in the city, and would only bring her child back to visit Granny Liu once a year during New Year’s. Granny Liu’s legs were weak. However, most of the time, she was alone at home.
Once, Lisa went out to look for a small river to wash her clothes but could not find any rivers around. It was the warm-hearted Granny Liu who showed her the way. Since then, every time Lisa passed by here, she would talk to the lonely Granny Liu, or she would bring her some food that she made.
“It’s too stuffy at home. I wanted to go out for a walk, but I forgot to bring my walking stick. I almost couldn’t go back. Fortunately, I ran into you, girl. Sigh, my old bones.” Granny Liu’s eyes weren’t very good either, but she still looked at Lisa with her cloudy eyes and said with a smile.
“Your body is still strong. You can try to walk more. It’s good for your body. Just remember to bring your walking stick next time.” Lisa also said gently, helping Granny Liu all the way to the door of her house.
“Granny Liu, I’m going back to cook. Come to my house next time you’re free!” Lisa waved goodbye to Granny Liu with a smile.
Granny Liu sat at the threshold, smiling kindly and waving to her.
Looking at the phone number sent by his assistant, Jungkook dialled it without hesitation.
“Hello? Who is this?” Eunbi answered the phone impatiently.
Jungkook said in a low voice, “Eunbi, right?”
“Huh?”
“Let me give you a piece of advice. When you talk to my wife, it’s best to show a little respect.” Jungkook said coldly.
Eunbi on the other end of the phone finally reacted. The person who called seemed to be Lisa’s poor husband, Jungkook.
It seemed like Jungkook was calling her to scold her for bullying Lisa. Thinking of this, she sneered disdainfully, “Jungkook? Who do you think you are? A hooligan, a pauper? Hahahaha... Do you know that the Mo family can easily crush a little bug like you?”
Jungkook did not care about her insult. Instead, he said harshly, “If I hear such indecent words a second time, you will definitely regret it!”
His voice was ruthless and full of confidence. When Eunbi heard him, she shuddered. She was speechless for a while before she realized that Jungkook had already hung up the phone.
The moment Lisa returned home, she washed her hands and asked, “What do you want to eat tonight?”
She looked as if nothing had happened. She silently buried Eunbi’s insults to her, in her heart.
Jungkook looked at her strong and calm demeanour and felt an inexplicable heartache. His tone softened as he said, “Whatever you want.”
Once again, she had no choice but to act as she pleased. Lisa pursed her lips, tied up her long hair, and began to wash the vegetables.
After a delicious dinner, Jungkook warmed up and was about to go out for a night run.
Running in the morning and at night were habits that Jungkook had developed since he came here. Although the workout facilities in the countryside weren’t the best, it had fresh air, so it was very comfortable to run.
Lisa already knew of his habits. She nodded and walked to the courtyard to see the chickens and ducks.
Unexpectedly, not long after Jungkook left, an accident happened.
