Chapter 6.1

Gao Taehyung and Li Jungkook had paid their respects and said their congratulations earlier to the Old Madame, which was why they hadn't headed towards the outer courtyard, but were instead wandering around the inner courtyard。

They had originally wanted to head to the study, but on their way there, they had caught sight of two girls who were like headless flies, going around in circles. Thinking they were thieves, Gao Taehyung had come forward to give them a lecture, but he hadn't expected to see one of the girls decked out so beautifully. When she turned her head, he felt as though the whole household had lit up.

Her delicate tender cheeks looked just like white pear blossums, clear and bright.

Suddenly, he thought of those fairies described in those mythological books, were they like her, so beautiful and refined?

Spellbound, Gao Taehyung saw little fairy run towards him, full of smiles, looking charming and cute. Thinking that she wanted to speak to him, he nervously coughed and got himself ready. However, contrary to his expectations, she ran past him towards Li Jungkook at his side, and in her soft and pleasant voice, said, "So this is where Big Brother Xiao Jungkook has been, I've been looking for you for a long time!"

Turning his head, Gao Taehyung saw Li Jungkook subconsciously taking a step back.

Li Jungkook swallowed, and dryly asked, "Why were you looking for me?"

Young master Li Jungkook's mood was not great at the moment. Despite constantly hiding and avoiding her, he was still found by her. Why was this stinky girl so persistent? She was everywhere.

Speaking of this, Xie Lisa immediately felt depressed, her tone tinged with some exasperation. "Big Brother Xiao Jungkook never comes over to my household, and Aunt Song says you aren't feeling well, which is why I didn't go over to disturb you. Last time I sang you a song and you got angry, Shuang Yu said it's because you don't like listening to songs. Actually, I can also play the flute, do you like listening to the flute?"

In actual fact, Li Jungkook hadn't been angry because of this. But, upon recalling his pitiful and awkward state, his previously ruddy face turned ashen, and he retorted, "I don't want to hear."

Disappointed, Xie Lisa deflated, and she asked, "Why do you not want to listen? If you aren't even interested in hearing that, what on earth do you want to listen to?"

Previously, she had misunderstood his gender, and had sincerely apologised to him for that, yet he continued to bear a grudge. She also had a temper!

Xie Lisa pouted in anger, she had been doted on by both her parents since young, and had received much attention because of her outstanding looks, when had she ever been treated this way? Big Brother Xiao Jungkook really couldn't tell good from bad.

Li Jungkook lied and said, "I don't like anything".

How could one not like anything? Didn't that mean he had no hobbies at all!

Xie Lisa said in total disbelief, "Why don't I teach you how to play the flute? You will definitely enjoy it."

Defeated, Li Jungkook simply shook his head, rejecting her offer. "There's no need..."

When both of them spoke to each other, everyone else seemed to fade into the background. Gao Taehyung hung by the side with an embarrassed expression. He had wanted to speak with Xie Lisa, but could never find a good opportunity. If not for Xie Yeri coming forward, he would have probably been left standing for a while before Xie Lisa took notice of him.

Xie Yeri tugged on her sleeve, asking, "Sis, are we not going to the kitchen anymore?"

Xie Lisa then remembered her purpose in coming here, and no longer held up Li Jungkook, but instead changed the topic asking, "Big Brother Xiao Jungkook, do you know where the kitchen is located?"

Li Jungkook didn't say a word, however beside him Gao Taehyung asked, "Why are both of you looking for the kitchen?"

Xie Lisa finally shifted her gaze on him, tilting her head, with a look of doubt, asked, "Who are you?"

The little fairy was finally looking at him. Excited, Gao Taehyung's heart thumped hard, yet he appeared calm as usual on the outside. "This is my house, I am Gao Taehyung".

Xie Lisa nodded her head and smiled, "I am Ah Lisa".

Stupefied, Gao Taehyung enthusiastically repeated her name a few times. Perhaps it was because he appeared so silly that he attracted a strange look from Li Jungkook.

After knowing the cause of the incident, Gao Taehyung didn't say anything more, and immediately got the servants to head to the kitchen to get several dishes and desserts to bring to his study.

He was the eldest son of the Second Madame, and was greatly favoured by the Old Madame, even his study was an independent one. Outside the study was a couch, the floor was covered in a woolen rug, so one could sit on the floor. There were altogether four of them. As the host, Gao Taehyung naturally would sit at the head, with Li Jungkook and Xie Lisa at his left and right respectively, with Xie Yeri seated besides Xie Lisa.

As a result, it was unavoidable for Xie Lisa and Li Jungkook to sit facing each other.

Seeing Xie Lisa wink at him, he immediately turned his head away.

Most of the dishes on the table were the same as those in the banquet, Xie Yeri was full, and this time she remembered Ah niang's words, and continued to pick out food for Xie Lisa.

"Big sis eat till you are full".

As she had just learnt how to use chopsticks, she was unable to hold them steadily most of the time. As a result, food spilled on the table quite a number of times.

Depressed, Xie Yeri said, "Why do the chopsticks not listen to me?"

Xie Lisa passed her own chopsticks to her, "My chopsticks are very obedient, use mine."

The two sisters really went ahead and exchanged their chopsticks.

Not knowing whether it was a psychological effect, Xie Yeri found the chopsticks much easier to use, and didn't make any mistakes when she used them to pick food for Xie Lisa.

Gao Taehyung was stunned, and wondered whether she was really a little fairy who could use magic?

He and Li Jungkook hadn't had lunch, and had originally planned to head to the study to grab some books before returning to eat, but they had unexpectedly chanced upon these two, and so, they all ended up eating together in the study.

From the very beginning, Xie Lisa had only been about sixty to seventy percent full so after having a few mouthfuls, she put down her chopsticks and said, "I have to bring Ah Yeri back, Mother will be worried if she doesn't see us".

After thanking Gao Taehyung, she held Xie Yeri's hand, ready to head off.

Gao Taehyung stood up at once, blushing and with a tinge of reluctance said: " I, I can send both of you back... Weren't you both lost earlier?"

Recalling the earlier scene, Xie Lisa gratefully nodded her head.

As Gao Taehyung wanted to see them off, Li Jungkook obviously could not continue eating alone and could only follow along, walking slowly behind them. However, Xie Lisa had set her sights on him, and occasionally turned back to say a few words to him, causing Gao Taehyung to feel envious.
