"She really isn't pregnant? This is a huge deal, don't hide it from me."

Jungkook said, "Why would I do that?"

Mother Jeon then relaxed. She turned around and saw Somi playing a game on her phone and couldn't help saying, "How old are you now – why are you still playing these sort of things all day?"

Somi didn't expect the conversation to turn to her. "When did I play these all day?"

Mother Jeon was just saying it to make herself happy. She turned around and asked, "Why did you bring her home? Isn't she a celebrity, I've been reading the news about her recently, it's all very chaotic."

Jungkook frowned. "You'd believe those rumours?"

"It doesn't matter whether I believe them, the important part is that if you truly treat her as your girlfriend you shouldn't let all of these come out." Mother Jeon said, "A girl who gets scolded by people every day – what's right about that?"

She had had Somi help her get a Weibo to go look around Lisa's page before. She did look pretty and she was quite tall. Most of the Weibo she posted was advertisements, and she didn't seem to have a personality. She had also seen her own daughter in the photos Lisa posted and thus knew that Somi had seen her long ago. After interrogating her daughter she learnt quite a lot and, yesterday, she'd seen the report on her pregnancy, which was why she hurried over today.

Mother Jeon seemed to suddenly have remembered something. "Right, I've brought you something."

She opened the bag. It was filled with all sorts of miscellaneous items: Some huge packs of oat-based items, some bananas and strawberries, dried cherries, tamarinds, and more.

All things for people in the first stages of pregnancy.

Jungkook didn't quite understand these things. "We could buy this outside, why do we need to trouble you to especially send them here."

"It's not troublesome. These fruits are still fresh, I'll put them in the fridge for you first. When Lisa leaves, have her bring some with her." After saying this Mother Jeon glanced at the clock on the wall. "It's already this time, why is Qi-shen still not here?"

Qi-shen was a helper Mother Jeon had specially arranged for Jungkook's house. She was originally supposed to live here, but Jungkook had rejected that proposal. Usually, she'd come over to clean up and make food in the day.

"Today we're not eating home so I've told her not to come."

His meaning was that he'd originally planned to go out for dinner with Lisa.

It's not sure whether Mother Jeon really didn't know or she's pretending not to know. She nodded. "Coincidentally, it's been a long time since I've cooked, what do you want to eat? I'll make some."

Somi immediately put down her phone. "Ma, don't, I'm very full I'll not eat."

There were different levels of culinary skills, her mother was of the highest-level: just give up, there's no hope for your cooking skills, hell-level.

"You didn't eat lunch today, you're still young and you can't be picky." Mother Jeon walked over to the fridge and said to herself, "At least there's plenty of food here, do you know what Lisa likes to eat?"

Jungkook watched the little shadow hiding behind the stairs, squatting there for a long time not wanting to come down. He couldn't help laughing. "She's easy to take care off and not picky at all."

After saying that he strode up the stairs and looked at the person sitting on the steps. "Why're you sitting here?"

Lisa pursed her lips and tugged the shirt on her. "—Auntie and Somi are both here, why did you only give me a shirt?"
