By the time lisa finally awakened from the brief shock, she started feeling the warmth of the man hugging her. His strong arms that was wrapped around her made her felt an indescribable feeling of security.

Lisa haven’t even raised her face yet but she could already tell who it was. She knew that no one other than him would come flying towards her like this to rescue her. And most of all, she knew that, no one other than him could warm her entire soul and make her heart flutters wildly.

That moment, lisa just hugged him back as tight as she could as she buried herself into his warm embrace.

She couldn’t believe that she was saved by him again.

On the other hand, Jungkook who was currently looking at Wu Rei with deadly sharp glares and indescribable rage instantly froze as though the deep darkness in his eyes disappeared the moment she felt her hugged him back tightly as ever.

The man who looks exactly like a dark beast from hell just now, turned into a soft unknown creature in no time. Causing Wu Rei who was immediately weakened as if he was a rabbit in front of a terrifying lion to finally breath again.

Wu Rei’s frozen brain also started working. He was mystified and completely horrified. He never felt this kind of atrocious feeling to anyone else before. The country’s general, his father, whom he thought the scariest person on earth didn’t even reached halfway to the level of this man in front of him. He exactly felt like the definition of devil itself.

However, looking at him hugging the wild-girl-turned-submissive-cat in his embrace, doubt flashed across his eyes. Wu Rei, being the only heir of Yang family which was one of the country’s richest family was familiar with all the big names, even the secret ones. And yet he was sure he never seen this man at all, even though in one glance, he was certain that he was no ordinary. He could tell just by looking at him that he might even be greater than what he could imagine. His curiosity about the mysterious man was even greater than his jealousy that he even thought about snapping a photo of him and ask his father to investigate him.

Unfortunately, before he could even lift his cellphone, the disguised jimin appeared in front of him. His gaze was almost as scary as the mysterious man behind. His glare was deadly as if telling him that he’ll die the moment he does it.

That moment, Wu Rei reflexively stepped back. And like a kid who just saw a ghost, he hastily ran back on his car and sped away like idiot, leaving his unconscious comrade just like that.

Meanwhile, the couple who was immersed in their own world didn’t even notice that Wu Rei was long gone until jimin dragged them back to reality.

"Hey, both of you! You can’t just flirt like that in broad daylight. Look, kids right there were all looking," he said and upon hearing him, lisa finally snapped and immediately let go of him.

However, the moment she raised her head and looked at his face, the world seemed to stood still and her mouth slowly hanged opened.

Lisa remained in daze as her eyes were glued to the face of the man before her.

She was quite shocked seeing his face that it lasted more than three seconds before she could finally manage to come back to her senses.

Lisa was certain that this man was her husband. His familiar coldness, his awkward yet comfortable silence and his scary demeanor were exactly him. However, something felt completely off.

That moment, she looked at him as though she was carefully examining his face as if it was a certain complicated and mysterious data.

The man’s face was somewhat good looking. He has regular features yet he looks strangely attractive. Nonetheless, lisa’s heart was filled with doubt and suspicion, she just felt as though something was wrong. It was because Jungkook’s lower face, his perfectly gorgeous jaw, his cheeks, his lips and the tip of his nose, that were all perfectly carved in every detail inside her brain was different from the details of the face she’s looking at. That moment, she was certain that it was different, causing her brows to knit hardly.

However, nothing was more strange than the man’s eyes. Because of Jungkook’s black mask, lisa never had a better view of his eyes. She always thought that Jungkook’s eyes were dark and grey. And yet the man in front of her has an eyes that were almost unreal.

His eyes were exactly akin to the eyes of a mystic game avatar. Its smokey-silver-grey color was like silver clouds in the realms of the gods. Lisa felt as though his eyes were like silver black holes that could seem to suck anyone’s consciousness just by looking.

At that moment, lisa wanted to think that he might have worn a mask or a contact lens. However, no matter how much she tried to scrutinize his face, she just couldn’t find any irregularities nor any traces of disguise.

"Are you alright? Did that person hurt you?" Jungkook’s voice was like a gentle thunder that jolted her. His voice was like an undeniable confirmation that this person before her was indeed her husband. Still, lisa abruptly raised both her hands and she’s about to pinch his cheeks when her wrist was caught by him.

"You’re right. I’m wearing a mask," he said while he gazed at her deeply as if he was an innocent boy confessing his little crime. That moment, lisa couldn’t help but felt painfully disappointed that she suddenly lowered her head and she leaned her forehead into his chest.

She stayed silent and motionless for a long while without raising her head again.

However, in the middle of her sulking, she soon realized that him wearing a realistic mask does makes sense.

What’s the point of him desperately hiding his face from me for such long time, and even including it in the contract if he’ll just reveal it easily like this?

Thinking about it, lisa somehow felt a bit better. She knew that it will never be easy. She knew that Jungkook won’t break his own rule easily. That time, she remembered that the first time she met him, she even thought that the day when she finally sees his face might never come at all.
