After hearing Taehyung's words, Jungkook sighed and said no more.
This time, Jungkook came back on the Qin family's private plane. As soon as he got off the plane, Jungkook secretly went to the airport to exchange with the substitute.
This substitute had been groomed for many years. His every move was extremely similar to Jungkook . This was how he was able to fool those old foxes.
When Jungkook rushed back to the Jeon family, his uncles were already in the hall.
Seeing that it was already late, the old master told them to rest first and make the final decision tomorrow.
It was not until he returned to his bedroom that Jungkook finally had the time to send a text to Lisa.
[Lisa, I've arrived.]
When Jungkook sent the text, Lisa was just about to wash up. Seeing that it was Jungkook , Lisa picked up her phone to reply first.
[I was worried that you had not arrived! Now I'm relieved.]
Just as Jungkook was about to say something else, there was a knock on the door. It was old master Jeon.
"Grandfather." Jungkook called out to old master Jeon.
Old master Jeon nodded and Jungkook brought him to the sofa and sat him down.
"Zhen! How was Bordeaux recently?" Old master Jeon asked kindly.
......
Jungkook smiled and said, "It was very good. I picked some grapes in the manor and learned how to brew some wine. I'll give it to you to taste when I have time."
"Well, it's good that you're having fun. Since you're having fun, Zhen, you should keep your heart. I'm getting old, so you still have to take over everything in the Jeon family," Old master Jeon said earnestly.
Jungkook wiped away his smile. "Grandfather, I don't want to take over the Jeon family."
Hearing Jungkook say this, old master Jeon frowned. The deep furrow between his eyebrows showed that this person was once a serious and old-fashioned person.
"Why?" Old master Jeon asked.
"Grandfather, I just want to be an idle person now. I don't want to meddle in the Jeon family's affairs anymore."
Jungkook lowered his long eyelashes to hide the dark light in his eyes. What kind of person was old master Jeon? He had been through a lot in his life. The moment they met each other's eyes, the old man would be able to see clearly what Jungkook was thinking.
Old master Jeon used his walking stick to hit the ground hard twice, he said bitterly, "As a member of the Jeon family, how can you retreat just because of such a small matter! I've experienced countless assassinations in my life. There are countless schemes in the open and in the dark, but I still managed to survive!"
Jungkook was unmoved. He could not let old master Jeon see through him now, so he continued, "Grandfather, I don't want to experience the feeling of being on the brink of death again."
Jungkook 's voice was very low, as if his entire being was shrouded in a haze. This made the old man, who had doted on Jeon Justin since he was young, suddenly soften his heart.
"Forget it! I know that this incident was a huge blow to you. I won't force you. Think about it yourself!"
With that, old master Jeon stood up and walked towards the door. Jungkook also stood up to send him off.
When he was about to reach the door, old master Jeon suddenly stopped and said with his back facing Jungkook , "I also hope that you can be safe and sound, but there are some things that even a person in power cannot escape from."
Old master Jeon's sigh entered Jungkook 's ears, causing Jungkook 's heart to feel as if it was being grabbed.
Hearing Jungkook 's "Hmm", old master Jeon did not stay any longer. He said to Jungkook to have a good rest before leaving Jungkook 's room.
Sitting on the spacious sofa, Jungkook was not used to it.
The sofa and coffee table in his and Lisa's small rented room were not big. All the furniture was placed in the space that was only a few dozen square meters, and because it was not big, it seemed that there was the presence of the two of them in every corner.
Jungkook asked someone to get a bottle of red wine and turned off the lights, leaving only the large patch of moonlight that shone through the floor-to-ceiling window.
Holding a glass of wine, Jungkook stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Jungkook originally wanted to drink a few more glasses before going to bed, but out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at the grass below and saw a person standing there.
That person's gaze met Jungkook 's, and he raised his arm to greet him.
This person was Jungkook 's fifth uncle, who had always lived abroad. Jungkook nodded and turned around to return to the sofa. This time, he closed the curtains, and only wisps of moonlight seeped through the gaps.
Jungkook turned on his phone, and the screen was still on the page where he and Lisa were chatting.
Lisa sent a few more messages: [Why aren't you talking? Are you asleep?]
After a while, it seemed like Jungkook didn't reply and sent another: [Are you asleep or out?]
[Pay attention to your safety when you go out! And don't flirt outside! If I find out, see how I'll deal with you when you come back! ]
[Are you home yet? Sleeping? Then good night!]
After good night, there was a small snoring emoji attached. Jungkook looked at the messages sent by Lisa, and his heart gradually filled with warmth.
