Jeon Yeo-been wanted to cook. Lisa played assistant and took out the fish and prawn from the fridge.

Then, as she went to the kitchen and washed them in a basin, Jeon Yeo-been snuggled up to her and whispered. "Lili, hurry up and tell me: how is that thing going with Jungkook?"

"What thing?" Lisa played dumb.

Jeon Yeo-been sighed. "Your boy told me that Jungkook can't do it. I feel for you, and apologize to you on behalf of the Jeon family. But it's alright! I was a nutritionist; I know my aphrodisiacs! You just have to keep his supplements coming, and it'll definitely help!"

....The little one really was a professional dadbreaker.

Jungkook would definitely spank him hard if he knew.

"What are you talking about?" Jungkook entered the kitchen then, hugging Lisa from behind as if it was natural.

Embarrassed, Lisa exclaimed in a hushed voice, "Let me go!"

There were people around. Didn't he understand moderation?

"Nothing. Nothing at all" Jeon Yeo-been waved, not mentioning a single word about just now.

She knew her nephew's prideful side well and would never hit him where it hurts.

Meanwhile, Jungkook pulled Lisa firmly out of the kitchen. "Let my aunt do the cooking. You have to rest now with me"

He had her sit on his lap. Overwhelmed with embarrassment, she quickly tried to get off but Jungkook stopped her.

"What are you being shy about? You're mine".

"Your aunt is here!"

"She is of nobility but single. we have to torment her".

Lisa was speechless. It was the first time she heard public display of affection being described so refreshingly and with such refinement.

On the other hand, Jeon Yeo-been was sighing inwardly even as her nephew kept snuggling up to his wife.

How could such a healthy man....not be able to do it!

Ah, fate is a cruel mistress!

****

After dinner was cooked and served, the little one quickly picked out a prawn and started peeling it.

Jeon Yeo-soon never stopped bringing food to Jungkook. "Eat up, Jungkook!"

Jungkook frowned at his plate that was full of food.

She regretted even as she said it; she did not want to do that at all!

Jungkook was clearly taken aback and even a little doubtful, although he smiled after a long look. "Okay"

Since he said yes, there was no way she could regret it now.

Hence, she peeled a prawn and held it beside his mouth, which he slowly chewed and swallowed.

She realized that he was handsome even when he eats.

"I'm thirsty" Halfway through, he gave her silent look, holding his chin while his eyes sparkled with expectation.

"Daddy is so embarrassing! Mommy has to help him with everything!" The little one said as he watched in disdain from a corner, with rice sticking all over his mouth.

Nonetheless, Lisa poured him a cup of water, but Jungkook had already moved closed to her and put his lips on the cup just as she was about to bring it to him.

She was dumbfounded, and could only lift the cup a little and help him to drink.

He was so thick-skinned!

After dinner, Lisa was about to help when she saw Jeon Yeo-been tidy up the table, only for Jungkook catch her. "You. rest"

She was at a loss for words. "Your aunt is a guest. How could I have a guest tidy up?"

"She is old now. Moving around is good for her body" Jungkook said very seriously.

"...."

There's no winning against him.

Jeon Yeo-been sat opposite them after cleaning up.

Lisa was wiping her little one's mouth, while Jungkook was catching her lovingly from a corner.

"Kookie, I'm relieved to see you so happy" Jeon Yeo-been was exclaiming inwardly.

Before she had gone overseas, Jungkook was still single since birth, a man of steel who only saw women as monsters.

But despite him being a bastard of the Jeon family and being held in disdain since forever, Jeon Yeo-been liked her nephew a lot, and even preferred his company.

Therefore, she was gradually estranged from her own brother Jeon Nomin.

Meanwhile, Jungkook crossed his legs and calmly asked, "Why did you come back this time, Aunt Yeo-been?"

"Of course. Why would I come back otherwise?"

"What is it? Just tell me if you need help".

"Oh, it's no big deal. Relax!" Yeo-been replied, but abruptly breathed a disappointed sigh. "But is it true what I heard, that your father wants Junghyun to help you at work?"

"Mm"

"Your father's gone senile!" Yeo-been was immediately enraged. "Junghyun can't walk and had always been in Europe, where management and policies must be different than here. KBS is fine with you alone, why would he have Junghyun squeeze in here?"

Jungkook smiled faintly, and it was clearly skin deep. "He said Junghyun would be helping me".

"No way!" Yeo-been sneered immediately. "I clearly know what that old bag of bones is up to! Oh, Jungkook, you have to do your best....when it comes to Junghyun...."

Yeo-been did not say more, but Jungkook nodded in understanding. "I know".

The house was silent after those words.

Yeo-been suddenly got to her feet her voice was no longer as mild as before, and was actually serious as she said, "Lili, come with me. I have something to talk to you about"

Something?

What was it?

Surely, it's not about 'that thing' with Jungkook....

Still, Jeon Yeo-been didn't look like  such a person.

Lisa stood up, glancing Jungkook by reflex.

Jungkook hugged her and gave her a kiss. "She is good person. You don't have to afraid".

"Okay...."

Lisa walked into the kitchen with Jeon Yeo-been, closing the door behind her.

The kitchen light was a little dim, which made Yeo-been appear rather old unlike her youthful appearance before.

Still, she walked up to Lisa and held her hands with an earnest look. "Lili, I actually didn't come back for anything important, but only for you and Jungkook".

Slightly surprised, Lisa muttered. "For me....and Jungkook?"

"I've watched Kookie since he was a child. I know that his temper would flare from time to time and he could hurt you then....but the child is still kind". She said earnestly. "Why did I come back in the first place? That's because he messaged me saying that he fell in love with a woman named Lisa".

"Jungkook had never given any girl so much attention since he was a child. You are the first, and that is why I came back: I'm curious who he could fall so hard for". Jeon Yeo-been's gaze became even gentler the more she spoke, even stretching her hand to stroke Lisa's hair, "And he is right: you have the looks and the heart. You're worth the love Lili".
