Lisa felt warm in her heart. Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by Jennie. She interjected, “Sister Lisa, aren’t you too happy? Brother-in-law actually helped you pick fish bones. I also want a boyfriend like this!”
Soyeon glanced at Jennie indifferently. Jennie seemed to have not noticed it and stared at Jungkook with bright eyes.
Lisa smiled faintly and turned to Jungkook , “You picked very well! You don’t know that although I love fish, fish bones are too troublesome. I was pricked by it when I was young.”
After saying that, Lisa stuffed a big mouthful of rice with fish meat into her mouth. She even narrowed her eyes and showed a satisfied expression.
“How good would it be if the fish meat didn’t have thorns.” Lisa sighed.
Jungkook looked at Lisa who didn’t care about her image and smiled, “I know.”
“Ah? What?” Lisa looked puzzled.
“I know you like to eat fish, but you don’t like to pick it.”
Jungkook ’s words made Lisa’s eyes widen and she looked dumbfounded.
“Eat quickly, it won’t taste good when it’s cold.”
Jungkook said while touching Lisa’s head. Lisa foolishly followed Jungkook ’s words, causing Jungkook to laugh out loud.
“Brother-in-law, what does your family do?” Jennie’s voice broke the warm atmosphere between the two of them.
Jungkook glanced at her and then looked at Lisa. Jungkook didn’t have a good family background. Wouldn’t he embarrass Lisa?
Just as Jungkook was in a dilemma, Lisa spoke first, “Jungkook ’s family is from the countryside. They usually grow some vegetables and raise some small animals to sell.”
“Ah! I see!”
Jennie sounded a little disappointed, causing Lisa to raise her eyebrows and look at her a few more times.
“Oh right, brother-in-law, what do you do now?” Jennie continued to ask.
Jungkook did not let Lisa answer this question.
“I do some translation work.” Jungkook took a sip of tea and answered.
“Translation? Brother-in-law is so amazing! Which University did you graduate from?”
“Never been to, self-taught.”
Jungkook did not blush at all when he lied. His expression was calm as if he was talking about a very ordinary matter. Lisa glanced at him and continued eating without saying anything.
“Those who can self-learn are all Gods, Haha. I think all the gossip in the company is fake! Since sister Lisa is so outstanding, brother-in-law must be amazing too.”
“Gossip?” Jungkook raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Lisa.
Seeing Jungkook ’s gaze, Lisa raised her head from the bowl and laughed dryly, “You know that Krystal and the others are always jealous of me. I’m thick-skinned and it’s useless for them to say anything, so they just slander you!”
“What did they say about me?” Jungkook asked calmly.
“It’s nothing, it’s just about your past! I didn’t specifically ask around.”
Jungkook nodded and didn’t say anything else. When Jennie was about to speak, Soyeon placed a piece of cake into her bowl.
After a meal, only Lisa was the happiest. After Jennie was quiet, Soyeon and Lisa talked about work. Jungkook would occasionally say a few words. Although Jungkook didn’t say much, he always hit the nail on the head, making Lisa wish she could remember everything he said.
After a few times, Soyeon was also curious about Jungkook . When she found out that Jungkook was thinking about Lisa’s plan from his usual perspective, she couldn’t help but show an appreciative smile.
After the meal, Lisa and Jungkook sent the two away.
Lisa looked at the man opposite her. She felt that she couldn’t see him clearly.
There were too many things that happened in the past, so she didn’t pay attention to many things that didn’t make sense about Jungkook .
“Jungkook , did you read about what you said today from my proposal?”
The two of them walked hand in hand as Lisa asked softly.
“Yes,” Jungkook replied.
The Jeon family was involved in many industries, so he knew a lot of things, but that did not include real estate sales. He had gone to learn about this because of Lisa’s work.
“I remember when I got married, Eunbi told me that the person I was going to marry was an ignorant and idle local hooligan.”
Jungkook was silent for a moment and replied, “Yeah.”
Lisa turned to face Jungkook , looked him straight in the eyes, and opened and closed her red lips. “Are you Jungkook ?”
After asking the question, Lisa saw that Jungkook did not answer, so she changed the topic.
However, Jungkook did not fall asleep until late at night when he returned home. He lit many cigarettes on the balcony.
