Standing in front of the market, Jungkook looked a little dazed.
Although he had done many interesting things with Lisa, he didn’t expect that Lisa would bring him to the market one day.
“Jungkook , why aren’t you coming? What are you thinking about?” Lisa stood in front of a fruit stand and waved at him.
Jungkook said in a stiff voice, “I’m coming.”
The smell of all kinds of vegetables and fruits entered his nose. He didn’t know what it was mixed with, but it gave Jungkook a headache.
“Boss, how much is a kilogram of strawberries?”
“16 yuan. Young lady, do you want a box?”
Lisa picked up the transparent box and looked at it. The strawberries inside were red and plump, very tempting. Lisa’s craving was aroused.
Pulling on Jungkook ’s sleeve, Lisa asked, “Jungkook , do you like strawberries?”
Jungkook rubbed his temples at this time and answered, “It’s okay.”
“Yes, boss, a box of strawberries.”
After paying, Lisa pulled Jungkook out. Jungkook was stunned by her actions.
“Aren’t you going to buy groceries?” Jungkook asked.
Lisa smiled and said, “There’s a lot of smells in the market. You’re probably not used to it. Wait for me outside. I’ll come out after I’m done buying.”
Hearing Lisa’s words, Jungkook opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say.
“Actually, I wasn’t used to it when I first came here. However, after everything happened, I could only buy vegetables and cook myself. I had to be careful with the money I earned. In the beginning, I bought everything in supermarkets. Gradually, I realized that the market was much cheaper than supermarkets, so I formed the habit of buying things in the big market.”
Lisa’s expression was obviously calm, but it made Jungkook feel a trace of heartache.
It was hard to imagine how much she had experienced from being a carefree, naive little girl who was forced into independency overnight and needed to calculate everything to support her family.
Jungkook grabbed Lisa’s hand and said, “I’ll walk with you.”
Lisa looked at him in surprise. Jungkook ignored her expression and walked straight to the vegetable stall.
Seeing that Jungkook had made up his mind, Lisa did not say anything more. Coincidentally, the stall that Jungkook dragged Lisa to was where Lisa usually bought vegetables.
“Yo! Yan is here!”
As she spoke, the vegetable seller looked at Jungkook . When he saw Jungkook ’s outfit, she felt that he looked out of place.
The vegetable seller nodded anyway.
“Auntie, do you have any good vegetables today?” Lisa smiled and asked.
“Today!” As she spoke, the vegetable seller took out a few bundles of small cabbage from the foam box behind her and said, “These were sent by my husband in the afternoon. I thought that you might come to buy some vegetables, so I kept them.”
Lisa took out a bundle of small cabbage from a few bundles of green, glossy, and watery cabbage and said, “Auntie, didn’t you always get vegetables in the morning? Why did they come in the afternoon today?”
“My husband was delivering vegetables to another shop. They asked for two boxes, but he somehow remembered them as three boxes. He took the remaining box and brought them here. There are only a few left, so he specially kept them for you.”
“Thank you, Auntie! By the way, remember to bring your medicine with you,” Lisa reminded her.
She was familiar with the vegetable selling auntie, but once the Auntie suddenly fainted and no one dared to come forward. Only Lisa accompanied her to the hospital and paid for the medical fees. This made the Auntie’s family very grateful.
After that, they became familiar with each other. When Lisa came to the market, the woman would bring out the best vegetables for Lisa to choose from.
“I’ve brought them. My husband has been staring at me every day. It’s very annoying,” the woman said with a smile.
Although she was complaining about her husband, the smile on the woman’s lips never faded.
After picking a few more vegetables from the woman’s stall, Lisa pulled Jungkook inside. There were all kinds of meat available.
Looking at Lisa who was greeting people beside him, Jungkook couldn’t take his eyes off her. She was a shining body everywhere.
Lisa kept telling him about the interesting things she had encountered in the market, and also how she met the people selling vegetables. Gradually, Jungkook seemed to be able to get used to the smell of the market.
Along the way, Lisa talked about the whole way, and Jungkook also listened to the whole way.
“Jungkook , do you like this kind of life?”
The sudden question made Jungkook stunned for a moment, and then he nodded lightly.
“Yes, me too. It’s good to be plain and indifferent like this.” Lisa sighed.
Jungkook frowned and said hesitantly, “You don’t like the life of the rich?”
“It’s alright! But being with the Mo family in the past, I wouldn’t like it. That kind of life is like a castle in the air. If you lose your support, you will fall into pieces.”
Under the setting sun, Jungkook looked at the side of Lisa’s face. It was quiet and beautiful, with traces of loneliness.
Her scattered hair was blown by the wind, like an elf wandering in the world.
