“That time in Ogam-dong! I remember now, that was when Captain Lisa had become the vice-captain!”

Seulgi nodded. “Yeah, he was all hot-blooded –give him a small switchblade and he’d dare to rush forward. Even thinking about it now I find it very funny, haha.”

He had just finished speaking when a waiter came up with a few dishes, breaking the topic.

“All right, it’s all old now, real men don’t boast about past achievements.” Seulgi laughed and said, “Eat, eat.”

Jennie tilted her head and glanced at the guy beside her. His expression remained unchanged as he helped her get a bowl of soup.

“Drink soup.”

“Mhhm.” Jennie took it over and, while someone chatted with Seulgi about a recent mission, grabbed his hand and dragged it under the table.

The guy’s hand was wide and rough, and she could faintly see the veins. Jennie moved from the palm to the elbow and there was nothing strange to be felt the whole way.

Where did the guy really get injured at?!

“Sister-in-law, girls have to eat this.” Someone sitting not too far away turned the turntable to deliver the snake meat to her. “It’s said to be good for one’s beauty, you’re a celebrity too, if you eat it you’ll become prettier.”

Jennie released Lisa’s hand and said softly, “Yeah, thanks.”

From the start to the end, the guys never stopped talking. A few got a tad high, and even began singing in chorus –

𝆕There is strength in unity𝆕

Jennie sat there eating quietly, very different from those who are competing to see whose alcohol tolerance was higher.

Seulgi picked up his cup and said, “Lisa, come, let’s drink.”

Lisa nodded. He had driven here and hadn’t planned to drink, so he didn’t have a glass. Picking up the one he had confiscated from Jennie, he filled it to the brim, raised it and said, “Happy retirement.”

Seulgi laughed and said, “Happy, happy! In the future, let’s all meet more often. We’re all brothers, if there’s any problems just say it out. Right, Lisa, you helped Seunghoon settle his issues, right? That brat called me, all teary-eyed and snotty.”

“Small thing.” Lisa downed it in one gulp.

“Hey, don’t drink like that, you have to send Jennie home later.”

“I’m calling a driver.” While speaking, Lisa poured himself another glass. Halfway through, he got up and said, “I’ll go make a call.”

The moment Lisa went out, Seulgi asked, “Jennie, when did you get together with Lisa?”

Jennie smiled. “Just recently.”

“I know. Recently I keep seeing Captain Lisa and Sister-in-law on the news, and it’s my wife who showed it to me. I keep telling her that this guy’s my captain, and she refuses to believe it!”

The guy beside laughed. “Why don’t you take a look at how different you are from Captain Lisa?”

Another round of laughter emerged.

“Fate, it’s all fate.” Seulgi cheeks were red as he said, “I don’t know how many years it’s been since I could drink so freely. Jennie, you do remember Lisa, right? You kept staring at him then, it couldn’t have been that at that time –”

“Of course, I remember,” Jennie said with a smile, “I actually have some impression of you too.”

“Yeah, then do you have a deeper impression of me, or of Lisa?” Seulgi smiled. “Back then, I noticed that you wanted to cry but daren’t, and had kept trying to make you laugh.”
