Chapter 69 - The Truth

Jeon Jungkook was still worried. Ever since Gao Taehyung appeared, Jeon Jungkook had been on alert.

He remembered how much Gao Taehyung had loved Xie Lisa when he was a boy, and Gao Taehyung had companied her since he left her many years ago. He didn't know how far their relationship had gone and not want to know it.

He carried Xie Lisa to his horse, put on her curtain hat with a wave of his hand, and followed slowly behind the carriage of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, neither fast nor slow.

Xie Lisa didn't know what he was doing, but she felt uncomfortable sitting on the horse. She rarely rode a horse, and although her brother had taught her a few times before, it ground her legs until they hurt and after that, she never rode a horse again.

She gripped Jeon Jungkook's arm tightly and subconsciously looked towards the carriage of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion. "I want to take a carriage ..."

Jungkook held her in his arms, holding the reins with both hands, and asked unhappily, "Won't it be good to ride with me?"

She pursed her lips and shifted uncomfortably. "I want to take care of Ah Yeri."

"She has my mother-in-law and servant maids." he said.

At the front, Xie Jiyong and Xie Hanbin were riding on horsebacks on either side of the carriage. Gao Taehyung was walking beside Xie Jiyong, and the two of them occasionally exchanged a few words with each other.

For some reason, Gao Taehyung suddenly turned around and looked at them. His gaze didn't linger for long. He only smiled lightly and then turned his head around.

Jeon Jungkook could not help hugging Xie Lisa more tightly, his thin lips curled into a line, his eyes staring straight ahead, but his mind was already far away. "What did Gao Taehyung tell you?"

There was a wind on the road, blowing away the veil in front of Xie Lisa's face, and she tried to steady herself, but she didn't notice the jealousy in his voice. "Nothing..."

"I just asked when he came to the capital ..."

"When he told me he was going to join the army, I thought it was on a whim. I didn't think he'd do it so well today."

Jeon Jungkook snorted lightly, his eyes fell on the person in front of him, "What else did he tell you?"

Before Xie Lisa could cover the veil, a gust of wind blew at her, exposing her sharp and smooth chin. She quickly covered it with her hand and said in a delicate voice, "Don't ask anymore questions ..."

"My hat is about to fall off. "

Jeon Jungkook lowered her head and saw that she was sitting in front of him with her hands holding the curtain hat, unable to steady herself. She was afraid that she would fall down at any moment.

He helped her straighten her curtain hat and leaned over to shield her from most of the wind, continuing the conversation. "What else did he tell you?"

This was a thorn in his heart. If he did not ask clearly, then it would only get deeper and deeper, until he could not even pull it out.

Xie Lisa thought for a while. "I forgot."

They were all trivial topics, either about Xie Yeri or about how she was doing lately.

Generally speaking, Gao Taehyung didn't seem to mention her marriage. Did he not know that she was married?

If he knew that she was married to Jeon Jungkook, he would be surprised, wouldn't he?

Why was it that when the two of them met just now, it was as if they didn't know each other.
