In the afternoon, Jungkook bade them farewell. When Lisa escorted him downstairs, both recalled everything that happened last night; they wanted to laugh but were reluctant to say goodbye too.

"Then... we'll keep in touch." Lisa waved at him.

Jungkook grabbed her hand right away and pulled her into his arms.

There were many people who were walking up and down the stairs, but Jungkook was not bothered by them, he lowered his head and gazed into her eyes. "Your family is really nice."

"That's for sure."

Jungkook's eyes shined with happiness. "Tve talked to your father just now. Return to Beijing with me in November and meet my family."

Lisa looked at him quietly.

She knew that he was doing this out of courtesy since he had met her family today.

"It was by accident that you met my father and brother today, you don't have to trouble yourself, we don't have to go so fast."

Jungkook flashed her a smile. "It'll happen sooner or later."

Blood raced to Lisa's face again. "It's still a couple of months until November, we'll talk about it then."

Jungkook was not actually hurt by her rejection at all. After all, the two of them had just started dating not long ago, and they had never thought about meeting each other's parents before this anyway.

Nonetheless, he was brought up a certain way, and since he had been introduced to her elders, he should by right allow her to seek his elders' approvals too. This was a sign of respect towards her.

He did not want her to feel that she was being treated condescendingly, even the tiniest bit.

When Lisa returned upstairs, Mingyu was cutting watermelon in the kitchen, leaving just the father and daughter pair in the living room.

Lisa sat down beside her father. "How was it?"

Father Kim looked at her and smiled lovingly. "A very nice fellow, he's tactful and experienced, benevolent and steady. You have much better taste than Mingyu."

Before Lisa could reply, Mingyu called out loud from the kitchen, "Father, you're being too biased, I'm your son. Besides, it's your first time meeting him, do you really have to give him such high praise?"

The three of them laughed. When they were done, Father Kim continued, "Your brother is right, I do have high praise for him, but it's just my first impression. What I'm more concerned about is that his family background is quite unique."

In China, the authority-centered class comes first, next is the economical class. Even though many people refuse to admit this, but it is certainly true that a small portion of people stand heads and shoulders above others in terms of authority. "If a person had stood on the tip of a pyramid since young, that person will be able to achieve many things in a way much easier way than the others, Whether it's his mentality or the way he sees things, it'll be different from common people like us."

"Lisa, since you studied about psychology, you know very well how the environment that somebody is raised in affects that person's character and values in life. I won't interfere in your affairs but I hope that you'll deliberate well from today onwards about whether he's able to stay devoted to you and cherish you equally and with respect." Lisa thought for a while then nodded. "At the moment, I can't say for sure that we'll be together forever. That being said, his family's influence on him won't be a problem at all. He decided this at a very early age-after all, he was just eighteen when he first attended the police academy against his parents' wishes."
