"You're hurting me." Jungkook seemed to be trying his best to suppress his anger. He did not notice that he had grabbed Lisa too tightly and was pulled into the car. Lisa's wrist was still in Jungkook's grip, and she could not help but cry out in pain.

"Are you alright?" Jungkook only reacted after hearing Lisa's words and hurriedly let go of her hand.

Lisa rolled up her sleeves, and her wrist was a little red.

When Jungkook saw Lisa's hand, the anger in his eyes dissipated and was replaced with guilt. "I'm sorry, I didn't notice."

"I'm fine." It was just a little red, but it wasn't that serious. Furthermore, Lisa could tell that Jungkook was so angry because he was worried about her, so she didn't blame Jungkook.

In the manor, Uncle Wang was leisurely watering the flowers when the door slowly opened and Jungkook's car drove into the manor.

The car door opened and Jungkook got out first. Uncle Wang had watched Jungkook grow up, so he could naturally tell that Jungkook was extremely angry. He was about to go forward and ask if anything had happened.

Jungkook placed his hand on the car door and helped Lisa get out.

...

Uncle Wang picked up the kettle that had been placed on the shelf.

He was already an old man, so he wouldn't be a third wheel anymore. Let the young people settle their own problems.

After entering the house, Lisa asked Nanny Li to prepare some food for her. After meeting Xia Fu, she went to the office. She hadn't eaten lunch yet and was a little hungry.

Upon hearing that Lisa had gone to that lousy place and had not even eaten lunch, the coldness on Jungkook's face grew. However, considering that Lisa was eating, he did not say anything. He took his computer and went to work under the small gazebo in the garden.

Lisa ate her fill and finally felt her stomach warm up.

"Nanny Li, your food is getting more and more delicious." Lisa smiled at Nanny Li.

Nanny Li smiled kindly. "It's good that Madam doesn't mind." Ever since she arrived at the manor, everyone had addressed Lisa as Madam. Having seen how everyone treated Lisa these few days, Nanny Li naturally had an idea of Lisa's status, so she had changed her way of addressing her.

"Where's Jungkook?" When Lisa returned, she could clearly sense that Jungkook had something to say to her. However, after she finished eating, Jungkook was nowhere to be seen.

"Young Master is in the gazebo in the garden." Nanny Li recalled Jungkook's expression when he had just returned and felt worried for Lisa. "Madam, Young Master seems to be very angry. coax him."

Lisa also knew that she had been a little reckless today. She had even alerted Jungkook to come personally. If news of this were to leak, it would probably affect the Jun Corporation greatly. It was only right for Jungkook to be angry.

Lisa walked to the kitchen, cut some watermelon, and placed it on a plate. Then, she carried it to the garden and looked at Jungkook sitting there from afar. For some reason, Lisa could tell that Jungkook looked a little aggrieved from his back.

Lisa felt that she must have seen wrongly. She laughed a little and slowly walked into the pavilion.

"Have some fruits before you continue working?"

Lisa placed the watermelon by Jungkook's hand.

Jungkook's hands did not stop typing on the keyboard, and his cold side profile exuded coldness.

Seeing that Jungkook ignored her, Lisa did not speak further. She sat across the table, took a book from Jungkook, and slowly read it.

A few minutes later, Jungkook looked up and saw Lisa acting as if nothing had happened. For the first time in his life, he felt suffocated.

"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Jungkook switched off his computer and stared at Lisa with his deep eyes.

"I thought you were going to stop talking to me." Lisa closed her book. Her phoenix eyes curved into crescents as a gentle breeze blew past, causing the hair on her forehead to blow.

"Hmph." Jungkook snorted lightly.

"I'm fine. Even if you didn't come at the time, I still had a way to escape." Lisa was someone who had been on the battlefield before. Although her martial arts were not high, she still had ways to defend herself.

"There are two people this time, what if there are twenty next time?" Seeing that Lisa did not realize the danger, Jungkook's anger, which had slowly subsided, rose again.

Lisa choked on Jungkook's words. She felt that she had been too confident.

"I won't do it again next time." Seeing that Jungkook's expression was getting worse, Lisa's expression turned serious. "I promise that I won't be so reckless if something like this happens again."

"There's going to be a next time?"

"No, no." Lisa hurriedly shook her head.

"Remember to tell me first if something like this happens in the future." Seeing that Lisa really knew how dangerous the situation was, Jungkook's expression eased a little. He thought for a moment and added, "If anything happens to you, Haru will definitely be very sad."

"Okay, thank you." Lisa knew that Jungkook was doing this for her own good. "Then can you stop being angry?"

"Mm," Jungkook replied softly.

"Have one." Lisa picked up a piece of watermelon and handed it to Jungkook with a smile on her face. The coldness on Jungkook dissipated after he received the watermelon.

"Can you tell me more about the topic you were talking about in Qing University? I didn't understand some of it." Seeing that Jungkook had returned to normal, Lisa ate the watermelon in her hand in relief.

"Okay, I have some photos here. Come and take a seat."

Lisa sat beside Jungkook and looked at the data he had drawn up. Jungkook explained it to her patiently.

Not far away, after Uncle Wang watered the flowers, he saw Lisa and Jungkook sitting together, looking like a match made in heaven.

Jungkook, who had been filled with anger and exuding a cold aura a moment ago, was now explaining things to Lisa gently and patiently.

Uncle Wang smiled and went to water a patch of flowers with the kettle.

When Supervisor Jin returned to the office of Creating Star Entertainment, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He called CEO Liang and wanted to find out who that person was. How could he make CEO Liang so afraid? No matter what, CEO Liang was someone with a net worth of over a hundred million dollars.

"Hello? Who is it?" It seemed to be extremely chaotic on the other end of the line.

"Hello, CEO Liang, it's Xiao Jin."

However, unlike the usual chatter and laughter, when he heard Supervisor Jin's voice, CEO Liang wished he had never known this person.

Thinking that the industry that he had worked so hard to build might be destroyed because of the person Manager Jin brought over, CEO Liang scolded Manager Jin fiercely on the phone.

"CEO Liang, what's wrong?" Manager Jin was stunned.

"I'm done for. You won't be able to recover either. Wait for it." CEO Liang finally said something that didn't make sense, but for some reason, it made Manager Jin's heart turn cold.

The internet buzz caused by Jun Jungkook, Xuan Sheng, and Xia Lisa at Qing University yesterday had yet to subside when the production team of "The Long Ballad" quietly released the promotional concept film for the drama, triggering a new round of internet buzz.
