This...Mao Mingyu didn't know what to say...he was scared of saying something wrong and anger Jeon Jungkook. Jeon Jungkook might try to get rid of him later on.

Therefore, he half-heartedly said 'heh.'

Xin Lisa grunted in disdain, "Humph! I knew there was something going on between them!! Even if you don't tell me, I already know everything."

Because of the conversation, the atmosphere was unbelievably strange and quiet while they ate lunch.

When Xin Lisa and Mao Mingyu left the cafeteria, she said, "Stop looking for me in the future."

Mao Mingyu asked, "Is that because of Jeon Jungkook?"

Xin Lisa's smile sti stiffened, "Hmm, another reason is because I'm angry at you for secretly taking a video of me. So, don't show your face in front of me for a period of time. Otherwise, I might take revenge on you if I can't control myself."

Mao Mingyu, "......"

On the other hand, Jeon Jungkook was also having dinner.

Last time, Weng Jennie had specially invited him to attend a dinner but Jeon Jungkook knew what the adults were busy with, so he had rejected their invitations a few times. Now, Weng Jennie was pressuring him by using the old man.

Jeon Jungkook grew up surviving the old man's beatings. Although Jeon Jungkook was unreasonable from childhood, the old man was even more unreasonable and harsh, using feather dusters and sticks to beat him up.

Gradually, he would only yield to the old man.

Whenever the old man said something, Jeon Jungkook could only half-heartedly respond and eat with the so-called Lai Family and their daughter who had just returned to the country.

Of course, he had a cold expression on the whole time. Besides greeting the adults of the Lai Family when he came in, he never looked at them.

The daughter of the Lai Family bit her lip and looked like she was extremely wronged when he didn't say anything to her after she glanced up at him for a few hundred times.

Weng Jennie was on the sidelines, trying to mediate between their relationship. She had scolded him as being 'unfilial' at least ten times.

After Jeon Jungkook ate a bit, he elegantly picked up the paper napkin and wiped the corner of his mouth. He got up and said, "Sorry, I'm going to the bathroom." Without waiting for the other party to reply, he immediately left.

Finally, Lai Family's parents' faces looked ugly.

Weng Jennie smiled and apologized, "Jungkook is a bit proud. It will be better once you get to know him." Heh. However, she was thinking the opposite of what she had said.

The Lai Family's parents could only smile apologetically. In reality, claiming connections with Jeon Family was something that the people in the city could only dream about!

After Jeon Jungkook got out of the private room and turned a few corners, he stopped by a narrow end of the stairs and looked out the window where the bright lights outside. Jeon Jungkook pulled out a cigarette box from his pocket and starting to smoke.

He had smoked a few times before but he wasn't really addicted. However, there was a lot going on in the company and it was difficult to sleep after handling everything since it was in the middle of the night. It was very lonely and boring this late, so he had slowly began to smoke in order to pass time. Of course, he only casually smoked.

Jeon Jungkook smoked a bit before gradually spitting out smoke rings. He squinted his eyes and looked through the smoke, unclear as to what he was looking at.

He stood for a while, took out his phone, and casually scrolled through it to see the video Mao Mingyu sent.

Mao Mingyu wouldn't dare to send him a boring video so he opened it to check it out.

In this quiet space, even the woman's voice became especially clear.

Jeon Jungkook slightly squinted his eyes and the red light in his right hand's fingertips slightly flashed. He watched her serious expression and her determined words.

After Jeon Jungkook saw this, he had actually played it again. Then, he deleted it and sent Mao Mingyu a text: Come out and drink with me
