This was Jimin's first time asking someone out, so he said it with reserve. He didn't say stuff like 'I like you' or 'I'm in love with you'. All he said was, 'Do you want to date me? I'll be good to you'. But how could Lisa not understand a sentence as straightforward and simple as this?

After a while, Lisa turned around to ask, "Are you addicted to cheating?"

"What?" Jimin frowned.

"Don't you have a girlfriend already? Is it okay to say something like this to me? I think it's considered cheating. Our country preaches monogamy. If you cheat, you'll be called a cheating asshole, so, for your own image, you really shouldn't."

"Those aren't actual girlfriends; at most, they're women." Jimin was clear to draw the line.

All these years, including Seulgi, his relationship with those women was just a combination of money and sex.

He was just looking for a way out of boredom and loneliness and didn't really fall in love with anyone, so he was just playing games.

Therefore, he didn't think that he was cheating; on the other hand, he thought Lisa was making too big of a deal out of it.

"Oh, maybe I'm not up to date with stuff like this, but I have a boyfriend, and I don't want to be called a cheating bitch. Most importantly, I won't leave him. We are very much in love and have a very stable relationship. Thank you for your kindness, I hope that you can live a healthy life and be happy in your work."

Then, Lisa turned on her heels and left…

Live a healthy life? Be happy in your work? She was weird, does she have to be so unique, even in her rejection? Jimin's entire face fell. The first time he expressed his feelings towards a girl, he felt as if someone poured a bucket of ice water down his back…

After he returned to his room, Jimin, unhappy, took out his phone and typed in a WeChat group filled with close friends, "What should I do if a girl I like has a boyfriend?"

"Make her sleep with you. That's how people fall in love," one of his buddies replied.

"Steal her, no one in Seoul is your match. You have more money and better looks."

"Offer her boyfriend money and make him back off. That'll give you a chance."

"Just ask her what she wants and fulfill all her wishes. By then, she'll want to sleep with you."

Although all his buddies had a point, Jimin didn't think that any of those methods would work on Lisa.

Make her sleep with him? That was degrading to him – he was good looking and had a hefty background. Did he really need to force somebody to sleep with him?

It would be such an embarrassment if other people found out.

Steal her? That was too over-the-top; plus, with Lisa's personality, she would probably end up hating him. What kind of future would they have then?

Give her boyfriend money? Jimin immediately eliminated that option. He didn't know what Lisa's boyfriend did for a living, as he had yet to find out anything about him. That alone means that he was definitely someone with a hefty background; would he really accept Jimin's money?

As for fulfilling all her wishes… he had tried that already; Lisa laughed at him and called him a genie…

Therefore, nothing would work, and all the above suggestions were moot…
