Jungkook went to his study room to get a document before returning back down.
Madam Chen saw him coming out of the elevator and immediately stopped what she was doing.
"Mr Jeon, you're leaving?"
Jungkook nodded, expressionless, and walked towards the shoe cabinet to change his shoes. As he reached for the keys on the cabinet, he turned to look at Madam Chen, who was cleaning an antique porcelain vase. He paused for a few seconds before asking, "How has Mrs Jeon's health been these few days?"
Madam Chen truthfully reported, "Mrs Jeon fully recovered yesterday and her spirits are much higher today. I don't think there's much of an issue..."
Before Madam Chen could finish her sentence, Jungkook had already left with his car keys.
He acted as though it wasn't him who had inquired about Lisa's condition but rather Madam Chen who had forced the information on him.
Jungkook opened the car door and sat inside. He turned into the empty road at the side and made a turn. When he was looked at the road through the back mirror, he caught sight of Lisa. She was holding onto an umbrella, picking flowers in the garden. A spark brightened Jungkook's eyes and he hit the brakes, stopping the car.
He stared at Lisa through the back mirror for a really long time before he reached for a cigarette. He lit it up, his actions familiar yet dignified, as he continued to stare unwaveringly at Lisa.
Only when the cigarette was at its end and burned his fingertips did Jungkook come back to his senses. Still, he remained focused on his back mirror as he casually tossed the cigarette into the ashtray. He lowered the window on his side. Clenching his lips, he forced himself to look away from the back mirror. Forcefully, he held onto the steering wheel and sped away.
Lisa picked a huge bouquet of flowers, bringing it into the house happily. She got Madam Chen to fetch an empty vase and put the bouquet in. She then started snipping off the excess leaves until she was satisfied enough to put it on the dining table.
As Lisa was washing her hands, Madam Chen seemed to have remembered something. She turned to inform her, "Mrs Jeon, Mr Jeon was back to grab a document just now."
Lisa paused momentarily before acknowledging her without any emotion. She lowered her head and washed her hands seriously, her originally lifted spirits having dampened once again.
Due to Jungkook's urgent matter, filming was pushed back by four days. Once they returned to filming, the scene with both Jungkook and Lisa was brought forward.
On the first day of filming, the weather was exceptionally good, just like the day they were originally supposed to film. The entire filming crew gathered at the location earlier than the scheduled time.
When Lisa changed and put on her makeup, Jungkook was already at the location, waiting. As usual, there was an invisible barrier of two meters surrounding him. However even if no one dared to approach him, the female actresses would still constantly steer their gazes in his direction.
