The moment he turned around, Lisa called out to him.
Her voice was clear and bright. “Doctor Byun, don’t be in such a hurry to leave. We still have to ‘reminisce about the past’.”
“Miss Lee, I’m very busy. Let’s reminisce some other time…” Baekhyun dearly wished that his feet could begin flying.
Jungkook’s cold voice came from behind. “Stop right there.”
Baekhyun was about to step out of the villa’s door. Now, he could only move his leg back. His signature smile seemed to be especially bitter today. “CEO Jeon…”
The imperial decree instructed him to stop. Even if he was beaten to death, he wouldn’t dare to run.
Bambam glared at him unhappily and whispered. “Brother, you don’t have any loyalty whatsoever. You actually tried to run away without me.”
“Who says I was running? I’m just busy.”
“What could you possibly be busy with? Didn’t we agree to go drinking together tonight?”
“Quiet. Stop tearing down my stage. Are you trying to shorten my life?” Baekhyun recalled the way Bambam had nearly been shot to death after offending Lisa. The three days of training he had suffered were also worse than death. It was much more frightening than being killed on the spot.
Lisa smiled dazzlingly and innocently. She made for a stunning sight. “Doctor Shi, we haven’t settled our bill yet. A gentleman like you won’t leave his dues unpaid, right?”
“Aiyo.” Baekhyun took in her gorgeous smile.
Although she was beautiful, he felt his scalp prickling with pain. “Miss Lee, what debts could be there between us?”
Lisa kindly reminded him. “I bought so many candies for you that your teeth nearly dropped from the sweetness. You wanted to kill me for it, didn’t you?”
She then leaned into Jungkook’s arms and whined. “Jungkook, I previously treated Doctor Byun to a meal out of the goodness in my heart. I even paid his bill at ‘Imperial City’. Yet, he went around telling everyone that I caused him to lose his face…”
Baekhyun’s expression turned stiff. He glared at Bambam hatefully and whispered. “This is all your fault. Look at this. I knew I wouldn’t be able to escape from this. Would this have happened if you had kept your mouth shut?”
“How could I have known that this beautiful woman was Lisa, that ugly…” Bambam was full of regrets. “I thought that she left, and that it was harmless to say those things. Why are you blaming me? If you weren’t trying to snatch from me…”
He noticed Jungkook’s stern gaze and his heart immediately skipped a beat in fright.
Jungkook asked coldly and heavily. “Snatching what?”
Bambam trembled in fear.
If Boss found out that both Baekhyun and he were pursuing Lisa, how were they supposed to hold onto their lives?
“Snatch… snatch…” Bambam was afraid of answering truthfully.
However, he was also afraid that the consequences would be far worse if he lied.
His youthful, rather charming complexion turned pale.
Lisa understood what Jungkook was capable of doing when he was jealous. If he found out that the two idiots had tried to pursue her, they would be doomed to die.
Although Baekhyun and Bambam always disliked her, she knew from her past life that they were both very loyal to Jungkook.
For Jungkook’s sake, she could not allow them to really die.
Thus, Lisa spoke up. “Bambam and Baekhyun were fighting to flatter me.”
She wasn’t lying. Instead, she chose to look over the fact that they did so to pursue her.
Bambam rushed to nod. “Indeed, Boss.”
Jungkook’s gaze turned meaningful for a moment but thankfully, he did not pursue the matter further.
Bambam recalled the way he had insulted Lisa earlier. He even said that she wasn’t good enough to be with Boss. Now, he felt regretful to the point of wanting to commit suicide.
He guessed that he would have to suffer another three days of special training.
He wondered if he would be lucky enough to hold onto his life after enduring it once more.
Baekhyun took in Bambam’s pale complexion and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.
This was because he knew that Bambam had offended Lisa far more and was doomed to be way more pitiful than he would be.
