It might have been that she was too nervous, because as soon as she sat down, she knocked over the wine glass, shattering it on the floor.
"I'm so sorry…" Lisa quickly apologized.
During the commotion, someone handed her a piece of napkin which she used to clean the edge of her dress. It was only after she raised her head that she realized that it was Jungkook.
"Thank you," she spoke with a distant tone as if she had put their past relationship behind her.
Jungkook didn't respond; he casually chatted with the other classmates and seemed to have turned his attention away from her.
This continued until Eunha purposely asked loudly in front of all of their classmates, "Oh yeah, Lisa, I heard that you are getting married soon? Your fiancé is a doctor, right? Good for you. Don't forget to invite us to your wedding. After all, we were classmates."
After her words, the entire room fell dead silent as everyone watched Jungkook's reaction closely.
"Not yet. Our families are still discussing it, but I will notify everyone once we decide on a date," Lisa said with a bashful smile.
Suddenly, she felt a piercing glance towards her.
"You are getting married?" after a moment of silence, Jungkook finally spoke to her for the first time.
Lisa nodded … for some reason, out of fear or nervousness, she couldn't even say the word 'yes'.
"Oh, congratulations." There was a smile on his face, but his gaze was icy cold.
"Thank you," said Lisa politely with awkwardness. She didn't dare to look directly at Jungkook as his smile was too oppressive. She had imagined their encounter numerous times, but she never expected them to meet in this situation. At this thought, she was once again flustered.
"It's such a pity. Back in the day, Lisa was one of the prettiest girls in school. I always thought that you would marry into a rich or influential family, but I never expected you to settle down so soon. Haha, what a pity. If I knew this would happen, I would have asked you out. Haha, why don't you consider me instead?" Taeyong said half-jokingly. He had always been a troublemaker during high school and had already had a few drinks.
Lee Taeyong came from a well-off family, and his father was in the construction business. With the booming real estate industry over the past few years, he was doing quite well following his father. Thus, during gatherings, he was always confident, even when he joked.
Chaeyoung immediately rolled her eyes at him and said, "Give me a break. You have no chance. You already lost to Prince Charming Jeon when we were in school. How could you win Lisa's heart now?"
Before she finished, Chaeyoung suddenly realized that she had touched a forbidden territory so she quickly shut her mouth.
Jungkook showed no reaction to Chaeyoung's words. He simply continued to stare at Lisa with a piercing gaze.
Lisa smiled awkwardly before standing up. She said, "Umm, excuse me, I need to use the washroom."
In reality, there was a washroom inside the private room they were in. Lisa simply wanted to find an excuse to escape from this situation or, more specifically, from Jungkook.
After Lisa walked out of the dining room, she started to breathe heavily; she could even hear her heart rate accelerating.
Lisa never thought that she would reencounter jungkook under such circumstances. It had already been seven years, and his sudden appearance caught her by complete surprise.
