Xu Wennuan told her to come quickly to celebrate with them at dinner. Wu Hao’s company had finally signed a big contract.
As a friend of Xu Wennuan and Wuhao, she was happy for their success and agreed to come without a second thought. She walked to the subway station after Xu Wennuan texted the address to her.

Jungkook had thought Lisa was going to have dinner with him. He did not expect her to leave while he was stuck socializing with the administrators from Xi University.
After an hour of conversation at the exit of the restaurant, he gave Xiaowang a bored expression. Xiaowang immediately said, “Master Jeon, you have an appointment with Master Liang at 8:30. I’m afraid we have to leave soon to make it.”
Hearing this, Jungkook feigned regret and said goodbye to the administrators. He walked back to the car with Xiaowang.
Once inside, he took out his phone, set silence mode to off, and checked his calls as Xiaowang drove. He’d missed 34 calls. Some of them were from the landline at his grandpa’s house, some from his grandpa’s cell phones, and some from Li Yan.
Before he could finish checking all the calls, Xiaowang said, “Master Jeon, your grandpa called me. He knows you got back to Beijing today and wants you to come home.”
He rubbed his forehead and blankly responded, “Okay.”
“So, Master Jeon, are we going to your grandpa’s house?”
He didn’t answer. A call came in as he held the phone. It was from his grandpa’s landline. He stared at the screen and then swiped it. He raised the phone to his ear, but before he could answer Li Yan said, “Jungkook, grandpa asked me to call you to see when you’ll be home for dinner?”
Jungkook was quiet.
Li Yan waited and then continued, “We haven’t had dinner yet. We’re all waiting on you.”
He didn’t say a word.
“Jungkook, you rarely come back to Beijing. Don’t you want to see your grandpa?”
He remained silent.
“Jungkook, I know you’re listening. Can you say something?”
He raised his eyebrows at Li Yan’s question and said, “Who is she?”
Now Li Yan was silent. When she finally spoke, she sounded sad and hurt. “Jungkook, it has been a long time. Can you stop being like this? You either pretend I don’t exist or when you do talk to me all you ask is who is she. Can you say something else to me?”
“Okay,” Jungkook said calmly. “What is her name?”
When Li Yan didn’t respond, he continued, “Or what is her phone number?”
“Or how much information about her did you destroy?”
Li Yan was silent again for some time before saying, “Ju…”
Before she could finish, he hung up. He said to Xiaowang, “Call my grandpa’s house and let them know I will come to see grandpa when she’s not there.”
He knew what Li Yan was thinking about.
It didn’t matter that she hadn’t told him who little troublemaker was, he could wait for the truth.
It also didn’t matter that she would let them suffer together because she had been refused by him. He had many ways to make her more miserable.
Over the past few months, he had neither spoken to her nor asked her for information about little hellraiser.
