Lisa turned around and met a pair of smiling amorous eyes.

The man behind him was very handsome. Under his high nose bridge, his thin lips had a devilish smile. The street lights reflected in his ears, and his black diamond earrings glistened.

"Thank you,"

Lisa nodded slightly in greeting, then turned and left without the slightest change in expression.

....

Xuan Sheng did not urge Lisa to stay after she left. He only stood where he was and watched her leave.

He could not help but think of Lisa's cold eyes when she turned around. Xuan Sheng had always hated those sour words of the scholars, but at this moment, he recalled a sentence he had once seen.

When looked at from afar, it was as if the sun was rising into the multicoloured clouds of the morning. As it approached, it was as if a lotus was emitting green waves.

The beauty in the video call, the beauty he saw in the coffee shop across the street, was no match for the lights in the city when that pair of cool eyes turned around.

Xuan Sheng had never felt that he was so interested in a woman. He really wanted to know how dazzling those ice-cold eyes were when they melted.

After a day of filming, Lisa was a little hungry. Waves of sweet fragrance kept wafting out of the cake shop, and it led Lisa into the cake shop.

There were not many people in the shop at the moment. Lisa looked at the colourful cake slowly. It looked as beautiful as a work of art.

In her previous life, in the palace of the Xia Dynasty, the pastries made by the imperial chefs were also very exquisite, but the ingredients were limited, so they could not make so many flavours and styles.

Looking at the exquisitely carved castles, gardens, and small animals in the glass windows, Lisa found it very interesting.

Seeing a cute pink piglet reminded Lisa of Haru. She felt that Haru would definitely like this.

At that moment, a WeChat notification sounded from her phone.

"Where are you?"

Unexpectedly, it was that long-silenced black profile picture.

Ever since Lisa returned to the capital from the production team, she no longer had to video-chat with Haru. Hence, Lisa and Jungkook's conversation stopped more than half a month ago.

"Can I help you?"

Lisa did not know why Jungkook had suddenly sent her a message.

"I'll pick you up at the entrance of the film studio complex."

The other party replied very quickly.

Lisa felt a little flattered. After all, she had known that Jungkook was very busy.

"I'm at the cake shop. I'll be right out."

After sending the message, Lisa picked up a piggy cake she had just seen and chose a green and fresh-looking cake for herself.

"There are 72 pieces of cake in total. Is there anything else you need?"

The cashier packed the two cakes. Lisa was about to scan the QR code when she suddenly thought of something. "Help me get another one like this. Thank you." Lisa pointed at the packed mocha mousse.

"Okay, a total of 92 yuan. Please give me your payment code."

(13.67 United States Dollar)

Carrying three small boxes, Lisa left the cake shop.

The Jun family's car was already parked by the roadside. The luxurious car logo attracted a lot of attention.

The chauffeur stood by the side and closed the door after Lisa got into the car, blocking all the curious gazes outside.

In the car, Jungkook wore a well-tailored suit that had never changed. Just like him, the outfit was cold and reserved. Upon seeing Lisa get into the car, he cast his deep gaze on her. "Uncle Wang said that you didn't go home, so he came by to take you back."

"Okay, thank you."

Lisa thanked him politely, but for some reason, she felt the coldness emanating from Jungkook deepen.

There was a distance between the film studio complex and the manor. Lisa opened a box that contained a palm-sized Matcha Musi.

Lisa took out a spoon, dug out a little, and placed it in her mouth. Although the cake tasted sweet, it was not greasy. The rich smell of green tea filled her mouth. The cake's texture was very soft and melted in her mouth. With a gentle sip, she cut open the cake in her mouth.

Lisa found it delicious and fed herself spoon by spoon.

Meanwhile, Jungkook was like a working machine, always dealing with important matters of the huge Jun Corporation.

"Do you want to eat this?" A box was handed to him. Jungkook looked up and saw the cake-like box in Lisa's hand.

"I think it tastes pretty good. Do you want to try it?"

Seeing that Jungkook was looking at her without saying a word, Lisa thought that he was questioning the taste of the cake.

Who would have thought that Jungkook would suddenly approach her, and his face which was as bright as a jade tree would suddenly magnify in front of her? A familiar scent of a man's perfume suddenly assaulted her, extremely aggressive. Lisa held her breath and her eyes widened slightly.

"You?"

Before Lisa could finish her sentence, she felt a warm sensation on the corner of her lips.

It was rare for Lisa to be so shocked that she stopped chewing on the cake in her mouth. Her beautiful big eyes were wide open, making one think of a deer running in the forest under the moonlight, moving and light.

Jungkook placed his index finger in front of Lisa. A cake crumb the size of a rice grain was lying on the tip of Jungkook's index finger. Lisa could not help but blush. So he was helping her wipe the cake crumbs.

Looking at Lisa's flushed cheeks, Jungkook had a broken smile in his eyes. The coldness that had been exuded because of Lisa's politeness had finally dissipated a lot.

Jungkook sat back in his seat as if nothing had happened, but Lisa felt that the atmosphere in the car was strange and was momentarily speechless.

Lisa retracted her hand that was holding the cake box. She did not expect that a pair of jade-like hands would take the box away.

Jungkook, who had just been reading the documents seriously, suddenly looked up.

"Didn't you say you wanted me to try it?"
