Chapter 11|I Was Just Curious, That's All

Under the street lights, the girl's blue dress seemed to shine like a bunch of stars.

It was either from nervousness or the weather, but she crossed her arms and shivered slightly. She looked pitiful.

Seeing that he'd stopped, Sang Lisa also stopped with a look of panic in her eyes.

Shen Jungkook looked at her, his eyes dark and gloomy. "Why?"

Sang Lisa's hair stood on end from his gaze. "What do you mean why?"

"You didn't have to care about Sitong." Shen Jungkook said in a deep voice.

Sang Lisa thought that he was going to ask something. "The situation was urgent, so I didn't have time to think."

But in fact, she still wanted to ponder.

Xia Sitong and Shen Jungkook had a close relationship. If she'd saved Xia Sitong, Shen Jungkook might show some mercy to the Sang family once he became a significant figure in the business world.

However, this thought only flashed through his mind.

Shen Jungkook stared at her without a word.

This cold, judgmental gaze made Sang Lisa's heart tighten for no reason.

Fortunately, Shen Jungkook didn't say anything else.

However, she didn't know if it was her imagination, but he seemed to have slowed down and tried his best to walk beside her.

The lights elongated their shadows. The surroundings were tranquil, with only the sound of crickets hopping around in the grass.

"Shen Jungkook, there's something I've been wanting to tell you."

Sang Lisa hesitated but eventually said, "You don't have to take my confession to heart. I'll pretend that it never happened in the future."

She lowered her eyes and said softly, "Since I was young, the people around me have always given in to me. There was nothing I couldn't get. Thus, suddenly being rejected aroused my curiosity. However, it was just pure curiosity and nothing more. Once I understood what it was, I decided to let go."

These words were tactful, but Sang Lisa believed that Shen Jungkook would understand her meaning. She didn't really like him that much. She was just curious, that's all.

She didn't expect Shen Jungkook to react to her words. In one breath, she said everything she had on her mind.

"This time, Dad was willing to help your mother because he really wanted to make friends with your father. Moreover, arranging a consultation with medical experts is not troublesome for the Sang family. Therefore, you don't need to feel that you owe my dad anything, and you don't need to choose to study in the same school as me just to thank him."

There was a huge difference in ranking between foreign universities and majors.

Sang Lisa majored in medicine. Although the school she applied to was more authoritative in medicine, it was only ranked in the top 20 international universities.

With Shen Jungkook's abilities, he could quickly get into better-ranked universities like Harvard and Oxford.

"I won't risk my future just because I'm grateful," Shen Jungkook said calmly.

Sang Lisa heaved a sigh of relief and said, "That's great. You don't know this, but I was terrified that you'd listen to Dad and choose to go to the same school as me."

The soft street light shone on her porcelain-white and beautiful face. The girl's eyebrows were curved, and her long, curled eyelashes fluttered. It was as if stars were shining in her eyes.
