Spring's morning sunshine is very gentle, the soft light shining over the tablecloth makes the air give off a warm sensation. Lisa was sitting straight with a serious demeanor. Her face changed from red to pale like a chicken with its hair up ready to battle any given moment now.

Alright, he won't take into consideration "the way she kicked him like that".

Because that's Lisa's way. She has the most complex way of thinking yet while having the simplest heart.

However, this stranger that just appeared; Jungkook coldly glared at Jaehyun then looked down to continue reading his newspaper. Lisa surely can take care of this on her own.

Lisa wanted to be done with this as soon as possible but as soon as she's finished, the two men turned silent.

The atmosphere had become stranger than before.

Right at this time, the restaurant bell rang once "ding dong". Rosé walked in holding 3 cups of milk tea. Seeing Jaehyun, she was caught off guard but because she doesn't know anything, she glanced at Lisa with question in her eyes.

Jaehyun was stunned to see Rosé then looked at Jungkook.

Of course since Lisa already clarified her relationship with Jungkook, he doesn't have any other reason to be angry. He changed his expression as quickly as turning a page. He happily smiled and held out his hand towards Jungkook, "I apologize, I misunderstood. I'm Jaehyun."

Jungkook glanced at Jaehyun without changing his expression, held his hand, "Jungkook."

Jaehyun stopped but doesn't show any sign of anger. He glanced over the dishes on the table, smiled and said, "It's my bad today, let me treat everyone."

Jaehyun was about take out his money, Jungkook said while smiling, "No need, put it on my tab." He goes here often so he's very familiar with the boss of the restaurant. He already gave him money so he doesn't have to bother to pay every time.

Jaehyun smiled and looked towards Lisa with a helpless and pleading look. Lisa sighed and stood up, "Let talk outside."

Of course Jaehyun wanted that so he quickly stood up while and helped Lisa pull her chair.

When the two left the restaurant, Rosé opened her mouth, "Her purse is still here."

"She is coming back." Jungkook replied.

"Oh." Rosé held a spoon stirring her milk tea.

The two of them remained silent before Rosé happily smiled and said, "That's right, I have been wanting to train recently. If it is me, how many laps should I run per day?"

"Any is fine."

"Oh, but Lisa runs 10 laps so I shouldn't run any less than that, right?"

At this time, Jungkook looked up at her.

Of course, Rosé was a very prettygirl. She has a clear pale face with a tint of blush. Her eyes are big looking at him without any kind of shyness rather an anticipation and hopefulness.

Jungkook smiled brightly, "Good officers know how to manage their time. Lisa is weak in the physical ability aspect so she has to invest time in training. Your physical ability is excellent so you should focus on your work and case, don't ask me these kind of basic understanding."

Lisa and Jaehyun walked through the track field to an empty spot without any people, Lisa spoke, "I won't change my decision, don't waste anymore time. You already caused a lot of trouble for me. I hope this time you understand."

Jaehyun didn't answer right away but turned elsewhere to light a cigarette and quietly watched a group of people running under the sun. After a moment, he spoke, "You said that you don't like people of my type, why?"

Lisa thought for a couple of seconds before she answered, "There is no reason."

Jaehyun turned around, his body leaning on to Lisa, "What type of person am I?"

Lisa had to step back once. She was about to answer when Jaehyun continued, "Lisa, is it right that because you think you are very smart, you know how to judge people? Through what you call analyzation, you think I'm not good enough for you?

Lisa, reality is not that simple. You are an introverted person so do you think there are that many men who would be into your type? There are many people like me who would like you? Are there many people who could give you a life that many women could never get in their whole life? Lisa, I'm not that bad, why won't you accept me, to the point of not even giving me a chance?"

Seeing that Lisa didn't say anything, Jaehyun continued, "Don't you think that the reason why you still haven't got a boyfriend is because you are too stubborn and high? Don't you think that in this area, you are a failure?"

Jaehyun thought about Lisa for a long time before speaking his mind. He is partly emotional, but he also wanted to wake her up from her stubbornness.Lisa felt a bit hurt, she turned around and emotionlessly said, "I don't want to say much about this."

Seeing Lisa's icy facial expression, Jaehyun was really angered. Without thinking, he grabbed Lisa's arms. This soft feeling made Jaehyun's heart tremble a little. He suddenly remembered the touch when he held Lisa's hand back from the arranged meeting.

Jaehyun lowered his head, right where his eyes could see Lisa's clear white face. Her cold black eyes looked back at him.

Jaehyun's head turned fuzzy, he quickly lowered his lips to kiss Lisa.

Lisa froze and quickly turned her head to dodge. But the hot air from Jaehyun's lips still caught her cheek. That feeling made Lisa's face to immediately turn red, no longer holding an indifferent look.

In Jaehyun's eyes, what he said really hit her. She doesn't understand that she was too rigid and too much of a bookworm. There is still a chance for them to be together, he just needs to work at it to make her change her decision.Jaehyun also knew that what he did was rash of him. He lets go of Lisa's arms. He was about to apologize, when Lisa spoke in a very cold tone that proved that she was very angry, "You asked me, what type of person you are. Alright, I'm going to tell you."

Jaehyun was shocked. Seeing her calm eyes, he suddenly felt this isn't good.
