Su Lisa put down the little tortoise and went back to her own room, leaving Jungkook alone to bask in his reverie.

Although the night was getting dark, the man didn't feel any drowsiness at all. He picked up the tortoise and flipped it upside on its back. Immediately, the tortoise began to wave its little limbs around, clumsy and completely helpless.

Jungkook gently tapped his fingers on the tortoise's shell and mumbled absentmindedly, "Who let you be so mischievous? Who let you run around so much? Who let you get lost like an idiot all the time? You got sent back here anyway..." and you brought me such a big surprise too.

He really hadn't thought his confession would be so impromptu, or that the result would be so wonderful-Su Lisa actually agreed to let him pursue her!

"Little thing, I really should be thanking you for this." Jungkook began to soften as he stared amusedly at the struggling tortoise. Finally, he reached out and turned it back over.

If it weren't for this little thing, he probably wouldn't have gotten an opportunity to confess, which in turn gave him an opportunity to pursue his beloved. He really should be feeling thankful towards this little thing.

He decided that if he succeeded in pursuing Su Lisa, then he would definitely find a partner for the little tortoise and allow it to also live its days in bliss.

The next day, Su Lisa woke up to find that breakfast was especially rich. She saw not only her favorite steamed buns but also crystal shrimp dumplings, fish balls, and four types of exquisite  desserts.

Off to the side was Jungkook, showing an expectant stare that made her want to laugh. She thought that he looked like a big dog wagging its tail and waiting for praise.

"It tastes good," she said after tasting the dishes.

Jungkook immediately revealed a trace of a happy smile and responded softly, "It's good that you like it."

Su Lisa raised an eyebrow and didn't reply, but her heart was filled with satisfaction.

She'd once asked the System if his exemplary culinary skills could be considered a secret, and the answer was no. Although it was something that very few people knew about, Jungkook's culinary ability was a specialty, not a lifestyle habit.

"Lisa, I'll be going to Brother's company to talk about the business cooperation. Do you want to come with me?" He had just contacted Su Yoongi to set up a time. Since he had made up his mind to agree, he was quick to start up the process.

"I have a meeting to attend, so I can't." She wasn't worried at all about the cooperation. After all, it was between her own family members.

Assistant Eunwoo accompanied Jungkook to the Su family corporation. By the time they arrived, Su Yoongi's assistant was already waiting for them at the front desk.

"Mr. Jeon, President Yoongi has been expecting you. Please follow me to his office," the assistant said. respectfully.

Jungkook didn't say much. Under  the curious and astonished stares of multiple people, he followed the assistant into the elevator.

There was virtually no one who didn't recognize Jungkook or know of his fame, especially after he won the Starlight Award and became a household name. His fans were everywhere, even in the Su family corporation. They'd been expecting Jungkook to appear since the news that he was married to Su Lisa came out.

A few crazy fans had rendered the company's top executives speechless when they suggested making the year-end welfare reward a photo signed by Jungkook.

"Heavens, did I just see the real-life version of Great Jeon? Did I go blind, or did my dreams come true?" After the elevator doors slid shut, the receptionist finally couldn't hold her excitement back anymore.

"That was definitely the real one! Aside from my Great Jeon, Those handsome facial features and that kingly aura could only belong to my Great Jeon!" another fan exclaimed.

"Didn't you say President Yoongi was yours yesterday? And now it's Great Jeon? Heh, aren't you afraid of Queen Lisa coming to put you in your place?" the pretty receptionist huffed. Why are the all handsome men yours? They're mine, okay?

"Hey, can you not bring up Queen Lisa right now? I used to think Su Lisa was the little princess of the Su family, but over the past few years, she's been getting more and more impressive. She's even more well-known than President Yoongi! When I saw her last time, she was emanating a cold aura from head to toe. Just thinking about it makes me shiver, and yet our great and impressive Film Emperor was able to take her as his wife!"

"Well, I don't think that's right."

"How is it not right?"

"Our great Film Emperor is impressive, you're right, but I think he was the one who surrendered and not the other way around. Queen Lisa's skills... tut-tut, one word: unimaginable!"

"Hey, stop. Don't chat at work, focus!"

Before long, the news that Jungkook had made his first visit to the Su family corporation spread. The news attracted the attention of not only the company's employees but also people outside of the company. When Wang Jieun caught wind of it, she turned blue in the face and was said to have smashed everything that could be smashed in her room.

That came to show how big of a deal the visit was. It was a form of acknowledgment, and the result was
exactly what Lisa,  Yoongi, and Jungkook wanted. Now, no one could deny that Jungkook was a part of the Su family.

Inside his office, Su Yoongi told his secretary to prepare a cup of coffee for Jungkook. The two men, who were of different temperaments but equally brilliant, began to chat.

They were both very concise and efficient, so it took only half an hour for the negotiations to be finished. With the Su family's tourist resort project welcomed its first partner. The SQ Company that Jungkook founded now stood on the same front as the Su family corporation.

After the business talk was over, Su Yoongi led the conversation to a more personal territory, with the focus of the conversation being Su Lisa, or rather, Jungkook and his relationship with Su Lisa.
