"Really? That's a shame, my mom said that we would make a good couple. After all, we've known each other since we were kids and are aware of each other's' characters. Plus, our jobs are both stable, so if we get married, our quality of life won't be bad."
"Haha… thanks for thinking so highly of me, but… relationships are complicated. Sometimes those who don't seem to match end up dating, while those who seem to match don't end up going anywhere."
"There's a pub up front, do you want to go in for a drink?" Auntie Song's son was still in high spirits.
"I'm sorry, but I'm a little busy tonight. I need to leave now."
"Oh, okay, what's your WeChat number? I can add you," he said as he took out his phone.
"I don't use WeChat, and don't have time to use it anyways."
"What about your phone number?" he didn't want to give up.
"Um…look, I'm sorry, but I don't think we should exchange our contact information. I don't think it'll work out between us."
He was surprised by Lisa's upfront rejection.
During his previous set-ups, it was the women who took the initiative. After all, he had a good job and came from a good family.
He originally thought that getting Lisa to date him was going to be easy as pie, but to his surprise, Lisa immediately rejected him.
"Nothing is certain; what if a possibility opens up in the future?" he was still unwilling to give up.
"There's no possibility, I'm really sorry if I sound offensive. I know that Auntie Song did this out of the kindness of her heart, and I know that you're a good person. However, I should be able to make my own decisions, and I hope you can understand." The truth was, Lisa really wanted to tell this guy that she was married, but if he told his mother, she would definitely tell her mother. Therefore, after a lot of consideration, Lisa decided to keep her mouth shut.
"Haha… okay then, if that's what you think, then I don't want to force you into anything." he smiled bitterly.
"Let's head back." Lisa didn't want to waste any more time since everything was already out in the open.
After a while, Auntie Song's son along with Lisa arrived back at her mother's house, and Auntie Song left with her son.
Lisa sat down beside her mother and helped her with laundry.
Her mother rubbed at a dirty shirt while she nonchalantly asked, "How did it go?"
"Mom, he's not my type."
"How old are you? Not your type? Does that matter when it comes to sharing a life together? By the end you become family, that's how life is. Haven't you heard? After marriage, the couple becomes a pair of hands. All the love between them will be slowly scraped away by the small details of life."
"That may be the case, but I don't want to get married because it's right; I want to get married for love."
Upon hearing what her daughter said, she wasn't happy, but she didn't insist.
That night, on her bed, Lisa posted on a heartfelt sentence on her WeChat friend circle.
"If you get married one day, I hope it's because of love, and not because it was right."
However, Haruto immediately shattered her romanticism completely into pieces.
He replied, "Noona, I think men are like the food at a school cafeteria. It's disgusting, but if you get there too late, you might end up with nothing and then sleep on an empty stomach."
Chaeyoung had Haruto's WeChat as well, so she could see their conversation.
She immediately replied to Haruto, "Why do I have a feeling that you're saying this to me?"
"Of course not, noona, I don't have the guts to talk about you."
Lisa smiled and replied, "Are you guys having fun replying on my post? Have you paid posting fees?"
Before she had a chance to look at their replies, someone suddenly sent her a video chat request…
The ID on her screen was 'My dearest Mr. Husband', along with a photo of Jungkook, who looked dashing.
She doesn't remember noting Jungkook like that; how did that happen?
Nervous, she accepted the video chat and lowered the volume.
The good thing was, Lisa's room was quite far from her mother's. Or else, if her mother suddenly came into her room, she would be in big trouble.
"Hey." Lisa greeted him.
"Have you had dinner?" Jungkook's voice was gentle as it always was.
It seemed like he was still at the company. He had on a dark grey shirt; the diamonds on his cuffs were especially eye-catching.
Anyone else dressed like that would seem like no more than a rich hillbilly.
However, Jungkook wore it like royalty; she had to admit that clothes didn't matter, the face and the aura did.
"Yup, my mom made broiled chicken. It was delicious, I ate a bowl and a half of rice."
"Not bad," Jungkook said, his eyes smiling.
"Are you still at work?"
"Yeah, I have a meeting later."
"Why did you transform into a workaholic the minute I left home? Don't you know to go home early and get some rest?"
"Even if I go home, I'll still be alone." Jungkook's answer was short and to the point.
He sounded like a poor little housewife who was wronged.
His tone was full of sorrow...
"Ahem… don't worry, I'll be home soon."
"I miss you," Jungkook suddenly said as he stared at Lisa through the phone.
She had on a lilac sleep dress with a mickey mouse on it; she looked adorable.
Upon hearing what Jungkook suddenly said, Lisa's cheeks felt a little feverish.
"Isn't there anything you want to say to me?" Jungkook was obviously unhappy.
His dopey wife made no reactions after he told her he missed her, seriously?
"I kinda miss you too."
"Just kind of?" he objected once more.
"Hm… a lot. I miss you sooooo much, I miss you to death. Does that make you happier?"
"That's much better and hold your phone away from you, it's too close to your face right now." Jungkook instructed her.
"Why? Did you get sick of looking at my face for so long?" Lisa laughed.
"A little further."
Upon hearing Jungkook's request, Lisa had no choice but to increase the distance between herself and her phone.
She tried her best to fit her entire body on the screen…
"Pull down your collar," Jungkook said in all seriousness.
Lisa, "-_-"
