Jungkook’s heart was in turmoil. If possible, he would have rather brought her to his side earlier, instead of letting the Manoban family abuse her like this.

“I’ll go in…” Jungkook sighed lightly, a hand reaching out to smoothen her hair. Hot air radiated from her body, and her body was dry instantly, her wet clothes refreshed and clean without a speck of dirt on it.

Lisa wiped her nose as she looked at him. “Whatever for?”

“…to give them a fight?” Jungkook saw that she was now warm, and felt his worries dissipate a little, but the clouded look in her eyes remained.

“Really, you fight too much, too violent. However, it was I who had bullied them tonight…”

‘Then why is the one who’s hurt and in distress, you?’

Jungkook pressed a hand to his temple, and thought that perhaps her intelligence was not in her right state now, and decided not to argue further. “Alright, let’s return first then.”

“Oh.” Lisa said softly with her head bowed down, being more obedient than she usually was.

Jungkook pursed his lips, not used to her current demeanor. He glanced back to look at the gold-plated words, a flash of steel in his eyes.

The rain wasn’t letting up, and it was obvious that the umbrella wouldn’t be able to cover two people. However, when the rain was about to touch the two, it seemed like it hit an invisible barrier instead, sliding off it and falling into their surroundings.

The black car drove away slowly.

Under the rain in front of the Manoban family house, the plaque with the words ‘Manoban Manor’ had been struck by lightning, shattered and laying in several pieces on the ground.

At night, Lisa slept soundly, even though she had been expecting to be unable to fall asleep. She even slept better than she had before.

After sleeping, she went out for her morning run like usual. Seeing her return, Mrs. Zhang immediately brought a bowl of soup out for her, urging her to drink.

Lisa smiled at her, and drank the soup slowly.

She had had a good sleep, and she felt more relaxed after a good rest. The shadows that hung over her from her previous life were slowly receding. And in her new life, leaving the Manoban family was not the end, but a start, the beginning of her life.

She didn’t need to rush for classes now. In her free time, she would just move a table and chair, draw under the tree, or write large characters. Sometimes, a few birds would land on her shoulder, but when Mrs. Zhang came over, they would spread their wings and fly away.

Haha sat beside her, lazing on the grass.

Jimin was holding the sour plum soup that Mrs. Zhang had made in his hands. He and Rosé had been taking turns to spend time with her. The two were able to see that although Lisa didn’t express much on her face, her heart was in deep turmoil. Jimin, who was usually very chatty, was also unusually silent these days.

The sun was not shining too bright today, and an occasional breeze would blow. It was good weather that was rarely seen.

“You don’t have to specially come here.” Lisa said suddenly, not raising her head nor turning around which made Jimin stop in his steps behind her. “I’m alright now, with you guys coming to see me persistently, I feel even more pressured.”

From this angle, he could clearly see her expression which looked like it was carved from ice, her eyelashes waving lightly in the breeze. The sunlight was not too bright, and Jimin felt slightly dazed from the view, but he replied subconsciously, “No, I’m happy to.”
