“Would you like to go?” Jungkook seemed to feel that this was somewhat inappropriate, and he consulted her opinion.

“No worries. It just so happens that I haven’t eaten yet.”

Lisa did not mind.

“But I do have a request. May I take a look around your laboratory first? It was so hard to get through all those layers of security, so it would be such a pity if I didn’t at least have a look.”

Hyunsik had actually only intended on trying his luck and had not thought that they would actually agree to his suggestion, so he straightaway volunteered himself to show her around the laboratory.

Jungkook, though, pulled out a stack of papers that required his signature, saying he needed to finish off the rest of his work and that he would give them ten minutes to walk around.

She could sense his deliberate brush-off. Following Hyunsik out of his office, she listened to him enthusiastically describe the various laboratories they passed, only smiling politely in response and speaking very few words.

She was very afraid that taking the initiative to ask to come here had caused him to feel like she was being rude. Never before had she acted so impulsively and willfully before.

Now, this one-off time caused her to feel distressed and anxious. In the end, she could only remember the laboratory’s name: Laboratory of Electrical Insulation and Thermal Aging. At least that could be considered as having gained an understanding of his work.

“Here, we have the nation’s only large-scale thermal ageing equipment capable of carrying out high voltage, up to a maximum of 60 kV, and high temperature, up to a maximum of 200oC, experiments that combine pyroelectric properties and thermal stability testing.”

She nodded. "Mm."

Basically didn’t understand any of what she heard.

Even Hyunsik eventually could sense her mood and he smiled shyly, “Teacher Namgung treats everyone that way as if he has nothing to do with anyone. Don’t let it bother you.”

Lisa responded with an “mm-hmm” and replied, “I can tell. He does everything according to the mood he is in. If he feels like acknowledging you, then he will say an extra couple of things to you, but if he doesn’t, he will just not say anything at all and not give you any face whatsoever.”

“Yes, yes!” Hyunsik nodded his head quickly. “Just like that.”

She smiled, “He has always been like that.”
