Chapter 92 Part 1 : Side story (4)

Jungkook and Lisa's daily routine after marriage basically went like this: In the mornings, before she even opened her eyes, he had already left. At night, if they had time, the two of them would eat dinner together at the canteen of the training base, and then Lisa would watch Jungkook train before they would go home together. If they didn't have time, then they would only see each other about an hour before bed time.

They had very few opportunities to date like a normal couple — eating a meal together at the canteen was pretty much a date for them. For this, Jungkook would always feel a little guilty. He did not have time to spend with Lisa, to cajole her and love her... instead, Lisa had to accommodate him.

And she did so without complaint.

Jungkook borrowed the words of the netizens here: I must have really saved the galazy in my last life to have been able to marry a woman like this.

He did not say this out loud, only thinking it in his heart. His guilt and regret slowly evolved into gentleness and consideration. He became exceptionally meek towards Lisa, listening to whatever she had to say.

Lisa was rather baffled by this. It was said that men would change after marriage. Well, it was true that her Jungkook had changed, but he had changed in an unexpected way... he had become more obedient than before they got married...

Lisa couldn't understand it, so she deliberately asked him, "Jungkook, have you done something to wrong me?"

Jungkook asked in return, "What kind of things would count as wronging you?"

"You should know."

He raised an eyebrow, peach blossoms fluttering up at the corners of his eyes, "Oh, well, last night, I did do that to you..."

"Not that!" Lisa interrupted him with a red face. "I'm asking you why you've become so obedient?"

He pursed his lips and smiled airily. "That's my family's style."

Well...there really was no way to rebut that. -_-#

2.

Shortly after the wedding, Jungkook participated in the Champions Tournament that year. There were 5 months left to the Olympic Games — as the final opportunity to train and adjust before the Olympic Games, the Champions Tournament attracted a great deal of attention from all parties involved. Besides that, the battle power of Jungkook's massive fanbase was rather terrifying. They lined up outside the ticketing window very early, quickly snapping up all the tickets to the event.

In the 100-metre freestyle, Jungkook unsurprisingly won first place, but the media response to this was lukewarm.

He no longer only belonged to China, he also belonged to the world stage. Like Jaehyun, he was already peerless within the country. For athletes at their level, this level of competition was just a check-up to check on their current condition, to see if there has been any improvement or worsening in their condition.

Jungkook's check-up this time was unsatisfactory.

48.02 seconds. This was his time in the finals, which also happens to be his best time this year. Moreover, this number was also the best time he had recorded ever since the last World Championships ended.

The deeper the love, the greater the expectation. The media and the public all had very high hopes for Jungkook. Many people felt that Jungkook should have easily finished the race under 48 seconds. He was a world champion. He had the ability and power. If he could not do this, then he was moving backwards.
