Bang Chan was snoring away on the bed, and very upset when he was woken up.

He opened his eyes, and immediately stood up at full attention when he saw Jungkook.

"Boss...."

"Go home" Jungkook's voice was a little hoarse in exhaustion.

Bang Chan hesitated for a moment. "Boss....about my bonus this mouth....?"

"Doubled"

"Alright! Boss, Missus, I'm off!" Bang Chan was in high spirits.

Lisa's face darkened. "Who is that Missus speak off? Don't simply give others names!"

"What?" Jungkook calmly retorted. "Who is the missus here if you're not? Him?"

Lisa was very tempted to say yes right then!

However, she did not have the strength to bicker with him after running around for hours. She threw herself on the bed, her eyelids unbearably heavy.

Murkily, she could feel Jungkook lying down behind her, his scorching chest snuggling up to hers and his hands wrapping around his waist most intimately.

How nasty. He was no different from glue.

'Whatever. Hug away, sleep is the most important"

News on the net had always cooled as quickly as they became trending.

Moreover, Lisa had always been discreet and a complete normie in the netizen's perspective. Soon, other headline washed things away and was completely forgotten.

Meanwhile, Mingyu had not contacted Lisa for three whole days.

Could he really have been killed?

That was when Jisoo ran to Lisa, panting, "Scumbag Kim is looking for you!"

Lisa's eyes sparkled right then. "Where?"

"The reception room"

Lisa was very happy that her fountain of joy has returned.

Inside the reception room, Kim Mingyu was wearing the same suit he wore when they met three days ago, although it was a little wrinkled and faded.

He was waiting anxiously as he sat on the sofa and rubbing his hands continuously.

When Lisa entered, he quickly stood up and smiled. "You're finally here, Lili"

She went straight for the opposite seat, putting her right foot over her left. "Sit"

"Um okay...." Kim Mingyu quickly sat her command.

"Did you ask for me to pay the deposit?"

Kim Mingyu's eyes tightened. He started to rub his hands over his knees before saying, "Lili....actually, I....."

Over the last three days, Mingyu had been running around, asking friends to lend him some money.

However, most were pretending to be away from home, whereas those who answered his calls claimed that they had no money.

Mingyu cursed in rage then. Before Kim group went bankrupt, those so-called friend had always been sticking at his sides, calling him 'Bro Kim' every single day.

But now that he had fallen to hard times, all of them were avoiding him like the plague.

He finally understand then that friendship made in times of wealth were never reliable.

He had been at once surprised and delighted when he saw the news that Jungkook was calling off his engagement with Tzuyu over Lisa.

He was her childhood friend after all, and he knew that she was naive and kind.

However, he didn't expect to run into her when he has being chased.

His plan had been to approach her get on her good side and eventually develop a strong connection so that she would talk to Jungkook, and revive Kim Group.

Now, he realized that she wasn't so easily fooled.

"Actually....I don't care much about the succession ceremony or the suit...." Mingyu smiled drily, trying to muster himself so that he looked like the young master of the Kim family once again. "Lili, I....I had come to apologize formally"

With that, he stood up and bowed at her....
