Unfortunately, Jungkook did not give the waitress even a single look. In fact, he found her an eyesore. “Leave us for now.”

The beautiful waitress had hoped to provide more service to Jungkook but could only respectfully respond politely. “I understand. Please call me whenever you need.” She then left the room unwillingly.

“The Imperial City is not only famous for its fresh, expensive and air-flown seafood. They also offer more than thirty different seasoning sauces that taste unique and delicious. No matter how other restaurants try to imitate, they’ll never be able to replicate the same, unforgettable tastes…” Lisa expressed with some admiration.

In her previous lifetime, she rarely visited expensive seafood restaurants like this one. The only time it happened was when Jungkook brought her along after they were married.

At the time, he had chosen this exact restaurant.

Unfortunately…

After Mingyu learned of it, he expressed his disappointment towards her.

At the time, she was foolish and had her heart set on Mingyu. In order to show her loyalty to her ‘God’, Mingyu, she then declared she would never allow Jungkook to treat her to meals again.

Ever since then, unless there was absolutely no choice, she never dined out with Jungkook again.

As a result, she yearned for the taste of the seafood here till this day.

Jungkook took in her expression. “You’ve been here before?”

From what he knew, this should be her first time visiting.

“No.” She shook her head.

It wasn’t possible to claim he had brought her here in their previous lifetime.

He lifted his brows. “Then, why do you appear so emotional?”

“I read about this restaurant on a food blog.” She randomly found an excuse.

He did not ask her any more questions. Instead, he glanced at her injured right hand with some heartache. “Your hand is injured. It isn’t convenient for you to eat. I’ll feed you.”

She did not refuse and was happy to accept his service. “Yes.”

Suddenly, a young man rushed into the private room with a medicine box in hand. “CEO, you called me over so urgently! Where are your injuries?”

When Lisa saw him, she stood up in agitation. “Doctor Byun Baekhyun!”

Jungkook took in her response and disliked the fact that she was showing such emotions over another man. “You know him?”

Of course she did. In her previous life, Lisa only managed to lose weight long after she was married. Due to the long-term damage to her skin, the scabs on her face were very deep. Even after they fell off, they left large, red scars behind. It had been a serious challenge trying to help them fade.

She was even told there was a possibility the scars would be permanent.

At the time, she had found several famous doctors but none of them were able to help her. Baekhyun was the only person who was capable but he refused to give her a prescription as he had a poor opinion about her.

Eventually, it was Jungkook’s orders that forced him to do so.

His treatment caused all her scars to completely disappear. Not only that, her skin even became healthier.

He was an extremely capable doctor and this matter was related to her goal of eventually regaining her good looks. Even if she was not genuinely agitated, she needed to put on an act to gain some favourability points from the other party.

“Doctor Byun. His medical skills are extraordinary. Even after taking into account all the doctors who operate under Sheng Shi Group’s hospitals, his skills are one of the best. He is even a consultant for ten famous hospitals in the city centre. There is no way one would not have heard of him.” Lisa smiled. “Even if I’ve never met him, I’ve read about him online.”

Her scabs were about to fall off. If she guessed correctly, the same scars would soon form. She needed Doctor Shi’s prescription…

She did not wish to trouble Jungkook again. She hoped for the other party to willingly provide her with the medicine.

“Miss Lee is too kind.” Baekhyun’s attitude was very cold.

It was no secret that this woman had loved Mingyu ever since she was young.
