After returning home, after having dinner, Lisa started to search for information on the Lin family in Jing City.


Rows and rows of words appeared, making Lisa’s heart skip a beat. She recalled what Krystal had said beside her over and over again.


‘Lisa, aren’t you curious why CEO Song is sending you?’


That’s right! Why was CEO Song sending her? A newbie who didn’t have the qualifications to sign a contract alone? What could she possibly bring to the table?


Lisa’s gaze couldn’t help but fall onto the gossip again. She subconsciously touched her face. Did CEO Song take a liking to her appearance?


Lisa’s strange actions happened to be noticed by Jungkook, who had just washed the dishes and walked out of the kitchen.


Jungkook walked over to Lisa’s side and sat down. He also looked at the screen. It would have been better if he didn’t look, but when he saw it, he immediately frowned.


“The Lin family in Jing City? Why are you searching for this?”


“Client, client information! The company said that they want to expand their business in Jing City, so I need to make a trip there.”


“You’re going?” Jungkook’s eyebrows furrowed even more tightly.


Lisa nodded. She was starting to doubt the decision she made.


Although she felt that CEO Song wasn’t that kind of person, no matter how she thought about it, Lisa felt that she wasn’t the best candidate to go to Jing City. Moreover, according to CEO Song, she and Krystal were the people appointed by her and the Deputy General Manager respectively. That was bound to be related to the competition between the two of them. Why did CEO Song think that she could defeat Krystal?


Jungkook, on the other hand, was thinking differently from Lisa. He was thinking more about the dangers of this project. The Lin family was not as clean as they looked on the surface. Was there something hidden in the land that was being sold?


“Jungkook, what’s wrong?” Lisa asked when she saw that Jungkook did not speak for a long time.


Jungkook touched Lisa’s hair and said gently, “I was wondering if I could go with you.”


“Ah?” Lisa’s mouth opened wide, and the bad thoughts in her mind flew away instantly.


The exaggerated expression made Jungkook laugh, “Your mouth can hold an egg.”


Hearing what Jungkook said, Lisa instantly covered her mouth and said through the gaps between her fingers, “No!”


Then she blinked her big eyes at Jungkook and said, “You want to go with me! But the company won’t let you.”


“I’ll pay for it myself.” Jungkook was touched by Lisa’s cute look and said with a smile.


“Pay for it...” Lisa’s expression changed from surprise to distress. The expenses in the capital city were very high. Even though he said that he would pay for it himself, she would be the one giving him the money. Who knew how much money she would have left after paying off her debt next month.


Although Jungkook could guess what she was thinking, he still said to Lisa, “Don’t you want me to go with you? Or do you...”


Jungkook made a bitter expression as he spoke and glanced at Lisa’s computer screen. On it was the news of the young master of the Lin family.


When Lisa saw it, she knew that it was not good. She really did not want to see Jungkook’s dejected expression. She could only grit her teeth and say, “Go, why won’t I want you to go? You have to accompany me. Otherwise, it won’t be good if someone takes advantage of me.”


When he heard Lisa say this, Jungkook’s smile returned.


Seeing Lisa’s secretly relieved look, Jungkook liked this kind of unrestrained mode of interaction even more.


When it was time for Lisa to take a shower, Jungkook walked to the balcony with his phone and dialed Taehyung ’s number.


“Taehyung , do you know about the Lin family’s recent real estate deal?”


Taehyung  was playing games. He didn’t even look at the phone when he picked it up. It was only when he heard Jungkook’s voice that he was shocked.


“Real estate? Lin family? Jeon Jungkook, why are you suddenly asking about the Lin family?”


Ignoring his teammate’s scolding, Taehyung  immediately logged out of the game and asked Jungkook.


“It’s not for me, it’s for Lisa. Her company is going to develop in Jing City, and they’re interested in working with the Lin family.”


Because Lisa needed to work, Jungkook could only patiently explain to Taehyung .


“Oh wow, Hong Jing’s appetite is quite big! They even dare to work with the Lin family.” Taehyung  sighed. He had to carefully do a check on the Lin family.


“Just tell me what you know.”


“What I know? I don’t know anything! I’m not interested in real estate, but I know that the Lin family is trouble.”


Jungkook took a deep breath. He couldn’t be angry with the idiot. Did he need Taehyung  to tell him such nonsense?


“Cut the crap, go and investigate.”


“No, Jeon Jungkook, you should do it yourself! If my dad finds out that I’m investigating the Lin family, he’ll definitely give me a beating.”


As soon as he finished speaking, a beeping sound came from the other side of the phone.


Taehyung  rubbed his nose and sighed. He had no choice.
