Rock Sugar And Pear Stew | L.K Adaptation

Chapter 17

The ice hockey coach had truly not seen someone so pretentious for years. At that time, he was a little muddleheaded and actually didn't hit Jungkook.

Following this, Jungkook also did not say much. He changed into Ice hockey equipment, played against the ice hockey team members, and managed to successfully join the ice hockey team that very day.

After discovering this new player on the team, Bright Club swiftly yielded and signed a cooperation agreement with RCU.

The presence of Jungkook and Bright club resulted in rapid changed for the RCU ice hockey team. The January, at the National University Winter Games, the RCU ice hockey team managed to obtain a gold medal despite facing strong competitors. With this competition alone, Jungkook shot to fame and became the subject of numerous discussions. After appearing in further ice hockey  competitions in the subsequent months, he gradually gained some fans. Male fans thought that he had great skills while female fans thought that he was hot. The club boss thought that he was a money tree while the school management thought that he was the breakthrough in reversing the fortunes of the ice hockey team....

Everyone placed him on a pedestal.

....

It was at the equipment rental counter that Lisa heard all these gossips from the young female cashier.

She was great at dramatizing, and both Lisa and Chaeyoung listened till they were dazed. Lisa was a little sceptical. "Hm, really? Are you sure he is that good?"

"Definitely. Everyone reverently calls him Golden Ice God. Do you think that this was just for show?"

Lisa's lips curled. She shook her head. "I don't think this name fits him".

"What do you think fits him then?"

"Muscle Pig or Dog"

The girl's face darkened. She heatedly said, "I'm his fan. Mind your words!"

"Sorry, Sorry miss fan". Lisa quickly apologized. "This sister over here. Let me divulge something to you about Jeon Jungkook. Are you interested  to know?"

"Oh? What?"

"I'm the one who brought him into ice hockey". Lisa pointed to herself. "Really. I'm not lying. I'm his life coach".

The girl was full of admiration. "Most people would claim to be his girlfriend. You must be the first and only one to say that you're his life coach. What a refreshing and creative way of boasting. If there was a boasting competition, I'll definitely vote for you".

Lisa wasn't too motivated in continuing the conversation and strolled off.

She originally wanted to ice skate but as she passed by the door on the west, she saw that the door was open and on it hung a sign that said "No unauthorised entry".

Usually, the more something was forbidden, the bigger the itch to investigate it.

The west door wasn't an exit but led to the west wing.

Lisa knew that only the east wing of the Ice stadium was open to public. The west wing was a restricted area reserved for athletes trainings. She was a little curious on how it looked like. She looked left and right, saw that no one was looking and in a flash, sneaked inside.

Behind the door was a passageway. At the end of this passageway was curiously enough, yet another door.

She pushed open this door to see a security guard silently staring at her.

"Cough" This was awkward.

"Who are you looking for? You need to register yourself at the main entrance".

"I'm....just looking around".

"You're not allowed to do that here".

"Can't I just take a small peek...." Lisa mumbled. Seeing the security guard's unyielding attitude, she was about to turn when she suddenly saw a familiar figure in the distance. "Manager Song!" She yelled.

Hearing her voice, Manager Song looked over. He saw that it was Lisa and smiled. "Oh Lisa, are you here for Jungkook?"

"Ah? Ah" Lisa nodded.

"Go ahead. It happens that he is about to end training. You know where he is at, don't you?"

"Yeah" Lisa lied through her teeth.

As a result, Manager Song left her to her own devices.

Lisa successfully sauntered into the west wing without supervision.

....

Manager Song went to settle some things at the east wing. When he returned to the west wing, he chanced upon Jungkook who was about to head out with his bag. He saw Jungkook's quite look of confidence and beamed at him. "Going for class?"

"Hm".

He saw that Jungkook was alone and curiously asked, "Has Lisa left?"

Jungkook halted, "Lisa?"

"That's right. She came to find you. I just saw her not long ago".

Jungkook wrinkled his brows and wondered what that scoundrel was up to this time.

He was unable to guess her little mind. Feeling uneasy, he turned back to look for her.
