"Today is for us to freely have fun. Everyone, no need for such courtesy." Jungkook's gaze swept everyone before landing on Lisa. "Junior Sister came out to play but did not bring your horse?"

Lisa detected gazes falling on her from all around. She pretended ignorance and looked up at Jungkook, saying, "I am just walking around with my good friends. We are not walking far, so we did not ride."

"That should be the way to admire the flowers." Jungkook dismounted and threw the reins to the guards behind him. "Zhen also has such intentions. Would everyone be willing to accompany Zhen?"

Jackson and the young masters of the Lee Family naturally would not refuse. Lisa and the misses could only follow behind Jungkook, looking very loyal to the monarch.

The young masters of the Lee Family were led by Lee Mark, but ever since Lee Yongsun's (Solar) horse-riding accident, Mark rarely appeared at the gatherings and his reputation was inferior to before.

Other people did not know, but the Lee Family knew that the family had once had intentions of a marriage with the Kim Family. So when the young masters of the Lee Family saw Lisa, they couldn't help but take a few glances at Mark.

Jungkook noticed the glances of the Lee Family members. While he had suspicions, he did not show anything. He started to talk about different books and records, occasionally mentioning customs of local regions, and their governance. These young masters of aristocratic families were mostly educated and did not speak nonsense.

In terms of ability and talent, the aristocratic families were better than people who came from ordinary families. But these aristocratic family young masters cared about too many things, and were extremely self-centered. Jungkook did not dare put them in important positions.

Among these young masters, Mark and Jackson were the most outstanding. After Jungkook chatted for a while with them, he felt these two had extraordinary knowledge that surpassed the others'.

Lisa was listening to the lofty talks of these young masters and did not notice the dry branches under her feet. She slid and was about to fall. The moment she was falling, she only had one thought, this was so embarrassing.

"Miss Kim." Jackson had been close to Lisa, so when he saw her stumble, he quickly reached out to help support her. After Lisa steadied herself, he pulled his hand back like a gentleman and took a step back. "Are you all right?"

"Thank you, I am fine." Lisa bowed gratefully to him. "Thank you, Young Master Yang, for your help."

"Just a minor thing. Miss Kim doesn't have to be so." Jackson smiled gently.

Jungkook turned back to look at the pair. Seeing the smile at the corners of Lisa's lips, he turned and took two steps back to walk in front of Lisa and block Jackson behind him. "Junior Sister, are you injured?"

"I am fine." Lisa looked around, winked at him and whispered, "Your Majesty, don't ask. It's so embarrassing."

Seeing her act so childishly towards him, Jungkook smiled. He reached out to help her take a few steps. When they were far away from the dried branch, he said, "Careful, do not fall."

Mark looked thoughtfully at His Majesty and Second Miss Kim's actions. He turned back to look at Jackson who had a faint smile without any unusual expression. He looked down and didn't speak.

The group did not walk far when Jungkook spoke. "It rained a few nights ago. It is slippery here. Zhen will see Junior Sister back. Everyone, as you please." After finishing, he turned to look at Lisa. "Junior Sister, what do you think?"

Lisa looked up at Jungkook's eyes and saw her reflection in that pair of beautiful eyes. She looked down and said in a low voice, "Then this subject will thank Your Majesty."
