MR. Jeon, The Heart Bandit | L.K Adaptation

Chapter 136

Lisa caught him, however, and worriedly said, "The hotel should have umbrella. Borrow one, don't get wet again"

He smiled. "Alright. You should take a bath or you'll get a cold"

Lisa nodded and watched as he left before closing the door.

Since having her period meant she could not soak herself in the bath due to infections, she merely took a hot shower before coming out in a bathrobe.

However, she could not calm down as she stood by the window and watched the pouring rain outside.

Jungkook was even more drenched when he came back, and looked a lot more ragged than before, although that still did affect his good looks

Lisa felt a little hurt to see him so battered for the first time, but also breathed a sigh of relief.

It's fortunate that he returned, or her brain would be full of bloody scenes from every kind of accident.

As Jungkook went for his bath, Lisa pulled her luggage to a corner and made the bed before drying her hair.

She kept sighing near the window with senseless worries.

What misfortune: to be caught in such a storm just when they had arrived at Ocean City, and letting Eunha escape just when they had caught her.

However, Jungkook had promised her so surely that they would find her.

Therefore, she chose to believe in him.

But even as she wondered blankly, she suddenly felt a warmness over her back, followed by the sweet scent of minty soap.

Maybe because he had just got out of the bath, Jungkook's face was a steaming red. Even so, the lines on his face remained ever tender, his brows and eyes ever gentle and his ebony pupils clear and bright.

He held her just like that, his chin resting on her shoulder while he stared at her fixedly.

Lisa turned her head slightly, and the tip of her nose immediately rubbed on his, the hotness of their breaths colliding.

She inhaled sharply as her heart thumped wildly, but she pretended that it was nothing and cleared her throat. 

"What are you thinking?" His voice seemed to have been rinsed: gentle, clear and ever attractive, tugging at her heartstrings as he spoke beside her ears.

Lisa's heart was already caught in a storm, and yet she kept a straight face and said, "I'm wondering when the rain would stop"

"It won't" Jungkook said and gnawed at her ear, "You don't have to worry about anything. Leave it to me, and we'll have a break first, okay?"

He last syllable seemed to be slightly lifted, revealing his patience and sweet-talking.

The word 'break' was really a puzzling one.

Lisa blushed meekly as her mind unwittingly spiced things up with certain....questionable images.

She pulled away from him, head lowered and mumbling. "I'm going to sleep"

Be that as it may, she had just taken one step out when Jungkook caught her again, putting his large body over her own.

Lisa immediately stumbled onto the table behind.

Reacting quickly, she kept her balance with her hands, but she seemed to have knocked something over, and it dropped to the floor in a clutter.

her breath was caught when she looked down.

There was every kind of color available.

Uh.....

But........

Time seemed to stand still, and the air was swirling with awkwardness and vague intimacy.

"Lili...." Jungkook's voice was hoarse.

Lisa kept both hands over her ears and dashed crazily to the bed, pulled the blanket over herself while putting on a serious face as she watched a snow on her phone.

She felt she crumbling inside.

Jungkook simply sat beside her, full of invasive hormonal scent.

Lisa forced herself to stay calm and stared fixedly at her phone. She found a love drama, but the scene incidentally was not a family-friendly one.

Really....#%#$&%##!!!!

She quickly closed it and watched Detective Conan instead.

Yes, there's a murder in very episode. This is good, and it would melt off the awkwardness....

The episode she happened to be watching was the 'Mountain Villa Bandaged Man Murder Case', a two-parter that stood out.

Lisa remembered that she was frightened to death by the series when she watched them a younger age, but felt nothing when she watched it now.

Maybe it was because of her age, and she eventually became absorbed in it, completely ignoring Jungkook's presence.
