Sooin had no sympathy for them, but was afraid that Lisa and her would get in trouble if those girls were severely injured.
“Relax. They’ll be fine and so will we. Trust me,” Lisa looked at Sooin and comforted her gently.
Sooin believed Lisa. Since Lisa said that they would be fine, she believed they would be fine.
Lisa had only kicked them once, and she was still annoyed, but they were already badly injured, so she didn’t continue to beat them.
Before long, a younger male and a female teacher arrived. Although they hadn’t witnessed it themselves, a student had told them that a girl kicked three female students several meters away. One passed out; one’s leg was broken and one’s front teeth were missing, which was shocking.
The two young teachers couldn’t believe that a single girl was able to kick away a person at a time, and cause such a great deal of damage So they thought that it must be an exaggeration. However, when they saw the three female students’ condition, they had to accept the truth.
The female teacher went to the student who had fainted, calling in panic, “Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao…”
The student had no reaction. She immediately called an ambulance, while the male teacher asked, “Who did this?”
“It was me,” Lisa admitted with alacrity. She didn’t seem afraid at all.
The male teacher’s sight fell on Lisa. He recognized that Lisa wasn’t a student here, but was from the No. 3 High School. He was irritated, questioning, “You’re a student from the No. 3 High School. Why did you come here and beat our students?”
Lisa met his angry look showing no fear at all. “Because they slapped another student first.”
The male teacher frowned a little. “Who did they slap?” “My cousin,” Lisa answered pointing to Sooin.
The male teacher looked to Sooin, and the latter moved in fear. Her half swollen face was still bare in the air.
However, there were only two overlapped palm marks on Sooin’s face, while the three female students were lying severely injured on the ground. Thus the male teacher tended to protect Xia Jiaojiao and the other two girls. “I think she looks fine, but you’ve beaten them heavily. It’s too much!”
“What? She looks fine after having been slapped twice?” Lisa sounded threatening. Her cold look was like a sharp icy knife aiming at the male teacher, who immediately felt frozen.
Lisa then pointed at the three girls arguing in anger, “These girls, especially the one named Xia Jiaojiao, slapped my cousin just because a boy who she likes wrote a letter to my cousin. How could she do that? Who gave her the right to do that? The point is my cousin didn’t take the letter. This morning, the boy came to apologize to my cousin for what she had been through. And then! These girls slapped my cousin once more. Why can they slap my cousin, and I can’t fight back for my cousin? Do you think I can stand here watching my cousin being slapped and stay quiet? If you were me, would you be quiet?”
Lisa was aggressive with her words, and the male teacher felt overwhelmed. This girl was so strong and powerful! She was even more terrible than the principal. Luckily, the male teacher was a reasonable man. He felt ashamed after Lisa’s argument.
“Nevertheless, no matter what, it’s the fact that you’ve injured them. I’ve already called the police, and you can’t get away with it!” The female teacher wouldn’t let Lisa go, although she also felt the pressure from her.
Xia Jiaojiao and the two female students shouldn’t have slapped Sooin, but Lisa also had to take responsibility for what she had done.
Actually, Lisa just needed to pay the administration fee if they could make her do it, but the female teacher of course intended to let Lisa pay more than just money.
Sooin, instead, was scared that the teacher had called the police. Lisa held her hand giving her power and comforted her.
“I know that I should take responsibility for what I’ve done, but what they have done to my cousin is intentional injury, which is more serious,” Lisa said in a meaningful way. She wasn’t worried at all.
“So, what can you do?” The female teacher apparently didn’t believe that Lisa had the ability to stand against her. Because she knew Sooin’s background, she didn’t think that Lisa could bear the result.
From the female teacher’s attitude, Lisa sensed that there must be at least one girl among the three who was from a powerful or rich family, but so what, Lisa wasn’t weak either.
If they wanted to use their network to gain an advantage, Lisa would do the same.
“Interesting! Then let’s see!” Lisa didn’t care at all. Instead, she sounded provocative.
In the female teacher’s eyes Lisa’s confidence amounted to naiveness. However, the male teacher didn’t know Sooin’s background. Seeing Lisa being so calm and confident, he assumed that she must be powerful. Nevertheless, no matter what, he didn’t want to be involved further.
Within two minutes, there were a lot of people gather around, including several teachers.
Everyone was shocked by the fact that Lisa had kicked Xia Jiaojiao and the other two girls several meters away, but few of them criticized Lisa. Just as Lisa had explained, although she had to take responsibility for what she had done, Xia Jiaojiao’s behavior was an intentional injury.
A few minutes later, the principal arrived as well. The principal was named Du Haiping, and was a snobbish and selfish man.
Xia Jiaojiao’s father was the leader of the Administrative Examination and Approval Section of the Education Bureau, Xia Mingshan. It would be of great help if he could maintain a good relationship with Xia Jiaojiao’s father. If not, his career would end soon. Du Haiping didn’t have powerful support after all, so he had to please the rich and the authorities. That being the case, he obviously completely stood for Xia Jiaojiao.
Once he found out that Lisa was the one who had beaten Xiajiaojiao and the other two girls, he immediately swore at her without asking the reason.
However, seconds later Lisa stopped him. “Enough!”
Lisa was so aggressive that Du Haiping was struck dumb. He rounded his eyes focusing on Lisa, but didn’t know what to do next.
All the other people were surprised that Lisa dare to yell at the principal. Even the female teacher was slightly regretful, but she still refused to believe that Lisa had support.
It seemed like today would be a long day.
“As the principal, you snapped and blamed me without even asking why. You’re a shame to teachers!” Lisa was being very serious, but not because she was arrogant. It was the principal who didn’t have any moral standards after all.
After a long while, Du Haiping finally realized that he had been educated and humiliated by a teenager. He was annoyed with shame. “How dare you talk to me like that! Wasn’t it you who injured those girls?”
“So what? They have slapped my cousin twice on purpose. They deserve it,” Lisa said coldly.
“You…” Du Haiping was mad. “Your cousin seems fine. Why did you have to do that?”
“Don’t treat others the way you don’t want to be treated. I think that I’ve already been kind,” Lisa sneered.
“Gee! How naive you are! You could be arrested!” Du Haiping threatened.
“I don’t care. I won’t be the only one who will be arrested,” Lisa shrugged glancing at Xia Jiaojiao and the other two girls.
“Don’t forget there is one thing called power in this world, other than equality!” Du Haiping said with disdain He was laughing at Lisa’s innocence.
“Of course, other than equality, there is one thing called power in this world,” Lisa replied in a meaning way. “So, never annoy someone you don’t know.”
Seeing Lisa being so confident, Du Haiping got anxious. Is this girl from a powerful family?
Right at that time, they heard police sirens in the distance. The police came within 10 minutes.
Although the police station wasn’t far away, it wasn’t near either.
Because the female teacher specifically reminded the police that it was the daughter of Xia Mingshan, the leader of the Administrative Examination and Approval Section of the Education Bureau, who had fainted after being kicked, the police didn’t dare to waste time.
The hospital was a little farther away than the police station, so the ambulance hadn’t arrived yet.
A police car stopped beside the crowd. Three policemen got out walking inside.
The female teacher immediately walked ahead talking to the policemen, “It’s so nice to meet you. It’s her who has injured three students!”
“Take her away!” a policeman ordered. The other two policemen stepped to Lisa at once, and one of them had handcuffs. They didn’t bother to ask the reason. It was obvious that they had been bought by money.
“Wait!” Lisa stopped them. The two policemen stopped looking at her with disdain. One of them asked, “What? Are you going to resist?”
“No, but aren’t you supposed to figure out what has happened before you arrest me?” Lisa asked seriously.
Hearing that, the two policemen lost their patience. They didn’t think that it was necessary.
However, in front of the public, they couldn’t say it out aloud, so they asked a perfunctory question, “Fine, then let me ask you. Did you hit them?”
“Yes,” Lisa answered.
“Then I don’t think there is anything wrong if we arrest you,” the policeman said.
“Nevertheless, they also slapped my cousin. You should arrest them all as well,” Lisa retorted pointing at Xiapaojiao and the other two girls.
“You need to go to the police station to write down the arrest record now. They are injured and have to go to the hospital right away. We’ll have another policeman talk to them in the hospital,” the policeman said.
The policeman put it so well, but only to deceive the crowd. He wouldn’t do the same thing behind everyone’s back.
Lisa understood that. She only argued because she didn’t want to be regarded as a criminal. “Sure, but it’s only a civil dispute. I’m not a criminal. You don’t have a right to handcuff me.”
Lisa also understood that it was a trap to go to the police station, but she wasn’t afraid of it.
“Fine, let’s go!” The policeman agreed.
Lisa didn’t move right away, but looked at Du Haiping. She threatened, “Principal Du, if my cousin is hurt when I’m not here, you will be replaced for sure.”
Her cold voice was quiet persuasive. Du Haiping had to believe that Lisa had the ability to replace him.
She couldn’t let Sooin go to the police station with her. No matter if Sooin was guilty or not, her reputation would be affected, but Lisa didn’t care.
“Please…” Sooin clasped Lisa. She wouldn’t let her leave.
“Relax, I’ll be fine. Don’t tell our families,” Lisa stared at Sooin with determination. Sooin felt comforted for no reason.
Then, Lisa left with the two policemen. Just as they got in the car, the ambulance arrived.
In the car, Lisa took out her phone to make a call. A policeman immediately reached out his hand to grab it, “You’re a suspect now. Your phone has to be confiscated.”
Lisa raised her hand to seize his hand tightly. The policeman couldn’t move all of a sudden.
A grown-up man failed to deal with a teenage girl. The policeman was irritated with shame. He threatened, “Let me go, or I’ll arrest you for attacking the police!”
“Attack the police? Do you think I’ll be afraid of that? Stay away. You can’t afford the result!” Lisa warned coldly.
“You…” The policeman was mad, but he knew he couldn’t defeat the girl. However, he was also surprised by her confidence. The female teacher had already told them that the girl was from an ordinary family; that was the reason why they were so rude. So he said in a sarcastic way, “How dare you beat the daughter of Xia Mingshan! Do you know who her father is? He is the leader of the Administrative Examination and Approval Section of the Education Bureau! You’re doomed!”
“So what? They forced me to do so,” Lisa said calmly.
“How naive you are! Do you think you will be safe once you walk into the police station?” another policeman asked in an arrogant way.
“It’s not up to you. In City F, a leader of the Administrative Examination and Approval Section of the Education Bureau is nothing,” Lisa replied with confidence. It seemed like she was more powerful than Xia Mingshan.
“Nevertheless, it’s more than enough to deal with a poor girl like you,” the policeman said with disdain Even though Lisa was so confident, he still believed that she was merely a poor girl.
The two other policemen had a different opinion. A poor girl wouldn’t dare to ignore the influence of Xia Mingshan, and attack the police. Was this girl not as ordinary as the female teacher told them?
“How can you be so sure that I’m a poor ordinary girl? Have you done the investigation yourself?” Lisa teased. She didn’t understand why these people were so certain she was weak.
In the past, she was indeed a poor ordinary girl, but now, let alone her either rich or powerful friends, she as the chairman of Shenghua Real Estate was influential enough to protect herself.
Of course, she had no intention to use her identity as the chairman of Shenghua Real Estate. There was no need to do so.
Hearing that, those policemen were anxious. Isn’t she a poor ordinary girl?
“Aren’t you a poor ordinary girl?” one policeman asked unconsciously.
“We’ll find out later,” Lisa said.
All of a sudden, the three policemen felt uneasy, but they still had to do what they should do.
Lisa picked up her phone calling someone. This time, none of the policemen dared to say a word.
Seeing that the caller was Lisa, Jungkook immediately answered with amazement. However, when he heard what Lisa had been through, he was upset and annoyed.
Lisa asked, “Didn’t you tell me you can help me? I beat someone at the No. 4 Middle School, and I was arrested by a nearby police station. Can you get me out? If you can’t, I’ll call…” Before Lisa could finish, she was interrupted by Jungkook. “I can, wait a second. I’ll come to you.”
“Great, I’ll wait for you,” Lisa answered before she hung up.
I’ll wait for you Jungkook felt like his heart was touched heavily. He immediately walked out, and forgot that he was wearing a pair of slippers. Once he was outside, he called someone. He didn’t realize he was in a pair of slippers until he got into the car, but there was no time to change, so he directly drove to the police station at a high speed.
The policemen looked at Lisa with mixed emotions. Is this girl really influential? Several minutes later, they arrived at the police station. Lisa was guided into a trial room, but no one walked in to question her. Outside, the three policemen were discussing in a low voice.
“What should we do now?”
“I think we should wait! What if she really called someone who is more powerful than Xia Mingshan?”
“I agree. Although Xia Mingshan is man of some power, he is indeed not an official in City F!”
At that time, a middle-aged policeman walked over. Noticing that the three young policemen were standing outside talking, his face changed. “What are you doing out here? Go and question the criminal right now! Don’t let her go, for Leader Xia’s sake!”
“Leader Wang, this girl seems influential. She just called someone to bring her out of here. We want to wait until the person arrives. We can make the decision according to the person’s identity,” one policeman answered.
The middle-aged policeman hesitated for a second, then asked, “Didn’t the female teacher tell us that she is merely a poor ordinary girl?”
“Nevertheless, she despised Leader Xia! And she is so confident and aggressive. I don’t think that a real poor ordinary girl would do that,” another policeman replied.
“You’re right. Then let’s wait for a while,” Leader Wang ordered. He wanted to please Xia Mingshan, but he also didn’t want to annoy someone that he shouldn’t annoy. He could lose his job for that.
At that time, the phone in the police station rang. After a few seconds, a policewoman came to them and told Leader Wang to answer the call. It was from the director of the Public Security Bureau, Liang Youbo.
Hearing that, everyone was shocked. The director of the Public Security Bureau? Was it because of the female student that they just arrested? They felt that they were in trouble now.
Leader Wang immediately ran to answer the call. “Hi, Director Liang, I’m Wang Renkang, the vice leader of the police station in Baoshan area. What may I do to help?”
The minute Wang Renkang finished, a male voice sounded with slight anxiety, “Did you just arrest a female student named Gu Lisa in the No. 4 Middle School?”
Hearing that, Wang Renkang knew that something must be wrong. Although he didn’t know whether the girl was Lisa, he was certain that it must be her, because she was the only one that they had just arrested in the No. 4 Middle School.
Wang Renkang truly didn’t expect that the female student was so influential that the director called for her in person.
Wang Renkang wiped the sweat from his forehead. His voice was trembling a little. “Ye-yes, Director.”
“No matter why you arrested her, let her go right now! Be polite. Do you understand?” Liang Youbo ordered directly.
“Sure-sure,” Wang Renkang answered. He felt lucky that he hadn’t annoyed Lisa just because of Xia Mingshan. Compared with Director Liang’s order, their relationship was nothing.
After he hung up, Wang Renkang walked back to the trial room in a hurry. The three young policemen looked at him asking carefully, “Leader Wang, how is it?”
“The Director ordered that we should let her go right now, no matter why we arrested her. Be polite!” Wang Renkang replied.
Hearing that, they couldn’t help but take a long breath in.
Although the three young policemen felt lucky that they hadn’t treated Lisa violently in the car, they were worried about the words that they had said to Lisa. Wang Renkang wasn’t in the mood to care about them now. He went to the trial room in person to please Lisa.
In the trial room, Lisa sat there feeling bored. She heard everything they were talking about outside. She had to admit that Jungkook was very influential if even the director of the Public Security Bureau had to do him a favor.
As it showed, Jungkook wasn’t simple at all.
The minute Wang Renkang stepped inside he put on a pleasing smile. “Miss Gu, nice to meet you. I’m the vice leader of this police station, Wang Renkang. I’m so sorry for what you’ve been through. You may leave right now, and please allow me to send you back to school.”
Wang Renkang was being very polite, so Lisa treated him kindly too. “It’s fine. I don’t need you to send me to school. I don’t feel aggrieved either, but I want it to end in the correct way, not just because of the power.”
Then, Lisa gave Wang Renkang a piece of paper. Wang Renkang immediately took it.
Lisa added, “Although you didn’t question me, I’ve already written down everything. You can go check it. I know I shouldn’t have beaten them, but I only did it to protect my cousin.”
Wang Renkang read through it. He knew that Lisa was telling the truth.
From the perspective of the law, Lisa only needed to pay the administration fee, but the director had ordered to let her go, Wang Renkang didn’t dare to let Lisa pay the fee. At the same time, Wang Renkang was also astonished that Lisa was able to kick a person several meters away. This girl is so amazing!
“I don’t want anyone to bully my cousin from now on, especially Xia Jiaojiao. Please call their principal and let him be aware of that. As far as I’m concerned, the principal tends to protect Xia Jiaojiao.”
Wang Renkang of course understood Lisa’s aim. Du Haiping, the principal of the No. 4 Middle School, protected Xia Jiaojiao for the sake of Xia Mingshan. As for Du Haiping’s behavior, Wang Renkang actually could understand it. He would do the same thing when facing power.
They would always stand with the more powerful one. Like what was happening now. Lisa was the more influential one, and they naturally tended to please Lisa.
“No problem, I’ll call him later,” Wang Renkang answered. He was going to threaten the principal in fact.
“Oh, as for Xia Mingshan, I hope he can spend more time on educating his child. Students should focus more on studying. Do not hurt others out of impulse. If it happens again, it won’t end as easily as it did today,” Lisa said.
“Sure,” Wang Renkang answered.
Lisa then left, followed by Wang Renkang.
She saw the three young policemen who had brought her to this police station the minute she walked out of the trial room. They appeared panicked.
“I told you that it’s not up to you whether I will be safe. You better obey the rules and the laws the next time. If it happens again, you can’t bear the result,” Lisa said to them before she walked away.
She wasn’t threatening them, but just reminded them. If they continued to do what they did, they would be in trouble soon.
Those policemen felt ashamed, and learned their lesson. They were also grateful that Lisa didn’t punish them.
“Miss Gu, it is 2:10 pm now. I suppose you need to attend your classes. Please allow me to send you to your school,” Wang Renkang asked in an extremely polite way.
“No, thanks. Someone will pick me up,” Lisa replied coldly, walking straight out of the police station.
A black Land Rover stopped right at the roadside. Jungkook got out of the driver seat. Seeing that Lisa was safe, he was relieved. Even though he knew that she would be fine, he felt worried.
Lisa walked to him, and Jungkook immediately opened the door of the passenger seat for her. At that time, Lisa noticed that the man was wearing a pair of slippers. She was quite surprised.
Jungkook flushed a little explaining, “I was in a hurry.”
“Ha-ha,” Lisa couldn’t help laughing out loud, but she was touched. He had forgotten to change his shoes. He must have been super worried.
Jungkook felt embarrassed, and immediately changed the topic. “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine. Let’s go now!” Lisa got in the car. Jungkook closed the door, going back to his driver seat and left.
Wang Renkang watched the car disappear from his sight and finally relaxed. After that, he called Xia Mingshan and Du Haiping without delay and told them what Lisa had told him.
Both Xia Mingshan and Du Haiping felt frightened. No one dared to say another word.
As for the hospital administration fee, Xia Mingshan would pay it himself. After all, Feng Xiaoyu and Zhang Yanlin were hurt because of Xia Jiaojiao.
Lisa told Jungkook to take her back to school. Then she called Sooin. Luckily, Sooin was fine too.
Lisa hung up turning to Jungkook. “Thanks for what you did!”
“My pleasure,” Jungkook said.
“Let’s have steak this afternoon. I don’t feel like eating seafood anymore.” Since Jungkook had helped her, she decided to treat him better.
“Sure.” A smart man like Jungkook, he obviously understood why Lisa suddenly changed her mind. He was happy in his heart.
On the way, the two didn’t talk much. They were in a hurry, so Jungkook drove fast, but steadily. It normally took 20 minutes, but they arrived after 15 minutes.
Lisa stepped out of the car, saying good-bye to Jungkook before she ran into her school. Fortunately, she got back to her classroom on time.
During the break, Lisa called Jiah and told her that she was going to dine with her friends this afternoon, and wouldn’t be eating at home.
When the afternoon classes were finally over, Lisa took a taxi to a western restaurant where Jungkook had a reservation. She didn’t want to cause any rumors, so she didn’t allow Jungkook to pick her up.
The appointed time was at 6:30 pm. Lisa left her school at 5:50 pm, and it took at least 30 minutes to get to the downtown by taxi. It was the rush hour now, and she had to spend more time on the road. Meanwhile, Jungkook arrived much earlier at 5:30 pm.
When it was almost 6 pm, Lisa received a message from Jungkook. They would dine together in the No. 520 private room.
Lisa understood why he came so early, but she thought that the number of the private room was funny.
It couldn’t be a coincidence. He must have arranged it on purpose. Lisa was surprised that Jungkook was so romantic. (AN:/ 520 means that I love you because Chinese I love you as wǒ ài nǐ, and 520 is pronounced wǔ èr líng, they sound like a lot, when you say 520, it is like saying that I love you, so every year On May 20th and 21st, it gradually became the Chinese Valentine's Day online. In addition, 5201314 means that I love you forever.)
The man was indeed trying his best to win her heart.
Lisa was lucky to get in a taxi the minute she walked out, and the traffic wasn’t heavy along the way. Thus she arrived at the restaurant at 6:40 pm.
When a waiter came to welcome Lisa, he looked astonished to hear that Lisa had an appointment in the No. 520 private room.
Jungkook had caused a sensation when he had arrived. His muscular body, long legs and the extraordinarily handsome face were even more charming than a male idol or star’s. He had reserved the No. 520 private room, and made some arrangements. It was obvious that he was going to dine with his girlfriend. They all believed that his girlfriend had to be super stunning and sexy, but unexpectedly, a young teenage girl came later. The teenage girl was beautiful, but was too young. They didn’t seem like a couple at all!
The waiter guided Lisa to the No. 520 private room before he left. Lisa went to knock on the door herself. However, just as she raised her hand, the door opened.
Jungkook heard Lisa’s voice, so he went to open the door for her. His eyes met hers and neither of them knew what to say. At that moment, they only had each other in their eyes.
Meanwhile, Lisa thought that she fell in love. No matter if it was because of his exterior or interior, Jungkook touched her heart. Even though, she wasn’t familiar with him. She only knew his name and that he was a military officer, and nothing else. They hadn’t even talked much. Somehow, she trusted him and felt safe being with him.
Jungkook actually fell in love with the feelings he had when he was with her. He couldn’t help missing her, caring about her and even having her. It was hard to explain why you fell in love with a particular person, but that was exactly when you found yourself in deep and unconditional love with them.
“Come on in!” Jungkook got his mind back first. He stepped aside to let Lisa in.
Hearing Jungkook’s voice, Lisa finally realized that she was still standing at the door. She felt a little embarrassed, but calmed down immediately, walking inside.
There was only a bottle of wine with two glasses and a menu on the table.
Jungkook pulled the chair out for Lisa. After she was seated, he went back to his seat handing the menu to Lisa. “Ladies first.”
Jungkook suddenly behaved like a gentleman and Lisa was still not used to it yet.
She took the menu, reading it. Jungkook rang the service bell at the same time. Before long, a waiter came inside.
Lisa ordered a medium-well Fillet steak with black pepper sauce. Jungkook did the same.
Then Lisa ordered a fruit pizza and fruit salad.
When the waiter was gone, Jungkook hesitated a little. It seemed like he planned to do something, but didn’t know whether it was a good time.
“What’s wrong?” Lisa asked. She thought Jungkook must have something else to deal with and had to leave earlier.
“Um, I want to give you something. If you don’t like it, please don’t be mad,” Jungkook said with caution.
“Oh.” Lisa didn’t expect that Jungkook hesitated just because he didn’t want to upset her. She was quiet surprised, but felt that it was interesting too. She wasn’t a child who would get mad easily just because she received a gift she didn’t like.
Lisa was curious what kind of gift Jungkook was going to give her.
“Sure, I won’t be mad,” Lisa replied.
Jungkook was relieved. He stood up walking to the back and brought it out. However, when Lisa saw Jungkook stepping back to her with dozens of red roses in his hands, she had mixed emotions.
In her last incarnation, Sehun had always sent her roses with sweet nothings when he had chased her. It was all fake and she only felt that it disgusting and sarcastic.
Lisa had hidden her hatred towards Sehun well nowadays, so she remained calm. And it would be unfair to Jungkook, if she thought of Sehun now. Thus she forgot it right away.
Jungkook walked to Lisa. He flushed a little, and was very nervous, but said to Lisa with sincerity, “I heard that girls like roses, but I suppose not every girl like roses. Do you like it?”
“Of course!” Lisa answered. She grabbed the roses away from Jungkook. Actually, most girls liked roses, especially when they were from a man that she liked.
Jungkook was cheered up to see Lisa being delighted. However, the next second, Jungkook was anxious again. “Um, I bought two movie tickets. Can you go to watch the movie with me?”
Lisa was struck dumb for a second. Movie tickets? She was more than surprised now. It seemed that Jungkook had indeed done his homework!
“Sure,” Lisa agreed.
Now, Jungkook was finally relaxed. His face was alight with excitement. It wasn’t a common thing to see pleasure on Jungkook’s face, but now he was like a boy before the girl that he liked.
The fruit salad, steak and pizza were soon on the table. Jungkook opened the bottle pouring a glass of wine for Lisa and himself.
Although they didn’t talk much, they dined together in harmony. After the meal, the two went to a movie theater.
Lisa and Jungkook attracted a lot of attention, but people had different opinions towards them.
As for Jungkook, everyone was stunned and almost screamed as if they had met a super star, but most of them were jealous of Lisa. Although she was pretty, she was too young and seemed like a student. She didn’t match Jungkook at all.
Some only thought so to themselves, but some said it aloud. Some were even gossiping about whether Jungkook and Lisa were brother and sister. Lisa was upset to hear that.
Am I that terrible? Jungkook liked Lisa very much and he wouldn’t allow others to judge her. He also felt that Lisa was unhappy, so he glanced at the people around them with a cold look. No one dared to say another word again.
The man was handsome, but wasn’t easy-going.
Jungkook’s behavior touched Lisa. She stopped feeling sad then.
Jungkook went to buy two bottles of water and a tub of popcorn before they went in.
Jungkook had booked two seats at the last row. Although the movie was the most popular one these days, it was about to stop playing in theaters soon. Thus there weren’t many viewers in the screening room. Therefore, only Lisa and Jungkook were sitting in the last row.
It was a domestic comedy, which was thought-provoking too. It wasn’t one of those funny but vulgar films. Lisa was absorbed by this movie. She learned a lot from it while laughing. Jungkook wasn’t actually interested in movies. He paid more attention to Lisa. Seeing that she was enjoying it so much, he felt satisfied as well.
One and half an hours later, the movie was over. Lisa and Jungkook didn’t leave until the rest of the viewers were all gone. It was almost 10 pm when they left the theater, so they went back to Fenghua Luxury Mansion.
On the way, both Lisa and Jungkook stayed quiet. It was a little embarrassing though.
Jungkook wanted to say something, but he was lost for words. He had searched many sweet nothings on the Internet, but he couldn’t say it aloud because he thought they weren’t sincere, but he wasn’t a man who was good at talking However, if he didn’t say anything, it would be very awkward.
Lisa, somehow, didn’t know what to say. Normally, she was talkative, but she suddenly felt shy being with Jungkook.
“Well…”
“Well…”
After a while, the two opened their mouths together, but shut it at the same time too.
“After you…” “After you…” They did it the same time again.
“After you please!” Jungkook said it before Lisa this time.
“Don’t you want me to be your girlfriend? Why don’t you say something? I am feeling bored,” Lisa said with dislike, but she actually liked being with him.
She understood that Jungkook wasn’t chatty. If she really disliked that, she wouldn’t have fallen in love with him. If she didn’t like a man, she wouldn’t even give him a chance to chase her. Like Jaewon, she had turned him down directly.
Lisa also knew that she shouldn’t trust Jungkook so completely, but sometimes, she didn’t need to know everything about him. Feelings mattered most. And if Jungkook dared to deceive her, she would ruin him without hesitation.
She didn’t lose confidence in men just because she had been deceived and used by a man in her previous incarnation, but it wasn’t a good memory after all. She would be more cautious and never allow such a thing to happen again.
Jungkook stiffened a little. He got nervous all of a sudden. "I'm learning! Please give me more time.”
Seeing Jungkook being so anxious, Lisa felt sorry for him. Jesus! She must be in love with the man deeply now that just a look from him could touch her, but Lisa didn’t want to give in right away. She added airily, “Don’t worry. All I have is time. I’m only 18 now. I’m too young to fall in love and I should spend more time on studying.”
Lisa deliberately said the same thing that Jungkook had said. The man greatly regretted what he had said.
“Well, um…” Jungkook wanted to explain it, but didn’t know how. He had to face the fact that Lisa was indeed too young right now, and he didn’t want to affect her studying. However, if he didn’t deny it, he wouldn’t get closer to Lisa. Jungkook was upset.
Lisa sensed his changing emotions. Although she had no idea what exactly was on his mind, she understood why he looked concerned all of a sudden.
Seeing Jungkook being upset, Lisa didn’t feel the pleasure of a successful revenge. Instead, she felt upset too, but she just couldn’t help annoying him. Lisa started to think that she was becoming self-abusive.
Of course, Lisa wasn’t willing to see Jungkoook being upset for a long time, so she continued to ask, “What?”
“Nothing.” Jungkook gave it up at the end, although he truly wanted to explain it.
“Really? If you don’t want to say it, then fine. I think you’re just joking when you say you want to chase me!” Lisa was a little mad.
“No-no,” Jungkook immediately argued. “I just…” “What?” Lisa almost lost her patience.
“I just don’t want to affect your studying,” Jungkook finally said.
“Impossible! I’m No. 1 in our grade with nearly full scores!” Lisa said, but then she realized she shouldn’t have said it so quickly. It seemed as if she couldn’t wait to be together with Jungkook.
Hearing that, Jungkook was slightly amazed. He didn’t expect that Lisa was so excellent at studying. If she could continue to be the No. 1 in her grade, she could easily pass the National College Entrance Exam. She could also be the No. 1 in this country too! In that case, all the prestigious universities would compete to be her preference.
Lisa’s aim was The Capital University, but that wasn’t the point.
Since Lisa said that she was good at studying, she was available to date then! After that, Jungkook got excited. “Do you mean we can…”
Lisa knew what he was going to say, so she stopped him before he could finish. “I didn’t say that. If you want to date with me, you need to make an effort.”
Lisa admitted that she was being a little too proud now, but if Jungkook didn’t have the time or patience to chase her, she wouldn’t feel satisfied being his girlfriend. She wouldn’t agree to be his girlfriend out of passion. She wanted to spend more time on getting along with him.
Jungkook was slightly disappointed that Lisa didn’t give him an affirmative answer, but she didn’t rejected him either, which meant he still had a chance. Jungkook made up his mind to keep trying.
“I’ll keep trying!” Jungkook said with sincerity.
Before long, they arrived at Building G in Fenghua Luxury Mansion. Lisa got out of the car, walking inside.
Jungkook watched Lisa leaving until she disappeared from his sight.
The minute Lisa stepped in the elevator, she received a message from Jungkook: Have a good rest. Good night!
Lisa couldn’t help smiling with happiness. Good night.
At that time, Jungkook had just locked his car door and was walking to an elevator. He immediately checked his phone when he received the message back from Lisa. There was a faint smile on his lips.
If Bambam and others saw that, they would be greatly surprised. They would even doubt that the sun rose from the west. Because they had known Jungkook from at least five years to over 10 years, but they had never seen him being so happy. He always wore a cold face, and seemed aloof.
Jungkook’s personality had a lot to do with his family, so those who knew his background only had sympathy for him. Therefore, each one of the Red Flame supported Jungkook.
When Lisa got home, Eugene’s family was there too, but they looked worried.
Sooin was sitting on the sofa with her head lowered remaining quiet. Lisa immediately understood what was going on.
Lisa hadn’t helped Sooin remove her injury to keep it as proof. Now her family had found out about it. Sooin had probably already told them everything.
Lisa opened her mouth and was ready to tell them the truth in person, but Eugene interrupted her.
“Lili, I know you’re a good child who is able to make decisions on your own. Can you help me with something?” Eugene stood up from the sofa looking at Lisa for help.
Lisa was struck dumb. What?
“Sure, please tell me what happened?” Lisa curbed her confusion for now.
“Sooin was slapped by some of her schoolmates today, but she refused to tell us the reason. We then called her head teacher. Her teacher told us that the girl who slapped Sooin is the daughter of Xia Mingshan. Another student who had helped Sooin was taken into the police station afterwards. I seriously don’t know how to deal with it. Can you give me some advice?” Eugene’s voice was trembling.
Eugene had almost fainted when she had heard that. Her heart ached that Sooin had been slapped. She also felt sorry for the student who had helped Sooin and had been taken away by the policemen. She was afraid of Xia Mingshan too.
All in all, both Eugene and Jiah were very anxious throughout the day, but they didn’t have the ability nor wisdom to handle it, so they could only wait until Lisa got home.
Sooin’s head teacher wasn’t clear about the details and the result. Thus he didn’t tell Eugene that Lisa was the student who had helped Sooin, and that Lisa had soon been released.
Lisa was shocked that Sooin had kept her mouth closed.
Indeed, because Lisa had told her not to tell their families, Sooin hadn’t say anything about Lisa’s involvement. If their families found out that Lisa had been involved in it, they would have been more worried.
In fact, right now they were truly more concerned about the student who had helped Sooin and had been taken away by the policemen. It was because of Sooin that she had been caught. They all felt guilty.
Lisa was happy to know that Sooin was able to keep her promise. It proved that Sooin was someone that she could trust.
“Don’t worry. If you can’t handle it, I understand,” Eugene added. She didn’t want to burden Lisa.
Lisa had helped them a lot already. If they had been able to deal with it themselves, they wouldn’t have bothered Lisa.
Lisa sighed secretly. She knew that she couldn’t hide it any longer, so she told them the truth, “Aunt, uncle, please relax. The problem has already been solved by me…”
Everyone was shocked to know that Lisa was the student who had helped Sooin and had been arrested by the policemen.
“What? The female student is you?” Eugene couldn’t believe it.
“Lili, how-how can you be so bold? Are you alright?” Jiah dashed to Lisa. She checked Lisa’s body to see if she was injured or not.
“Mom, I’m fine. I’ve been practicing kung fu recently. Several men can’t even beat me down! Although I did beat those students, it was their fault. I don’t need to take much responsibility for it. I have a friend who is a military officer. He called someone in the Public Security Bureau, and those policemen let me go right away. And you don’t need to worry about that Leader Xia. He is nothing compared to my friend,” Lisa comforted them.
Jiah and others were fully confused by her complicated explanation, but since Lisa said they would be fine, they believed it.
As for her friend who was a military officer, Jiah and others were very curious about how they met each other. They cared about Lisa’s safety after all. However, they didn’t ask the question in the end. Instead, they chose to believe that Lisa could handle her life.
After a short silence, Jiah suddenly said to Lisa, “Lili, we’ve read the VIPs’ material in our beauty salon today. Your eldest aunt is a VIP in Kamei too.”
Hearing that, Lisa was a little surprised.
“It’s no big deal. We just continue to do what we should do,” Lisa said. She didn’t think that they needed to hide or anything.
Jiah and Eugene wouldn’t stay in the beauty salon all day, so it wasn’t highly likely that they would meet. Even if they met, it wasn’t a bad thing to let Lin Lijuan know that they were the bosses now.
The next day was a rainy day. Lisa couldn’t run to her school, so she didn’t leave her home that early. Around 6 am, Lisa walked out with an umbrella. Jungkook was already waiting for her outside of zone G. He knew that Lisa was accustomed to running to her school, but she couldn’t do it on a rainy day, so he went to drive her to school.
The minute Lisa got outside, she notice a familiar car stopped at the roadside. Jungkook was standing beside it holding an umbrella. Lisa was touched.
Jungkook immediately opened the car door for Lisa. “It’s a rainy day. Let me take you to school.”
Lisa didn’t hesitate, but walked straight over to get in the car.
After they were both in the car, Jungkook didn’t drive ahead right away, but took out a lunchbox handing it to Lisa. “I made the breakfast myself. Would you mind having a try?”
Lisa was amazed that the man had prepared breakfast for her in person. She almost cried at that moment. Although Jungkook wasn’t talkative, and didn’t like to say sweet nothings, he treated her so well with his actions.
“You made it yourself? How considerate you are!” Lisa said. She took the lunchbox. “Thanks!”
Jungkook blushed a little.
“My pleasure,” Jungkook answered. He didn’t want her to say thanks to him too often. He wanted to be closer to her.
After that, Jungkook gave Lisa a bottle of milk. Lisa took it, but didn’t say thanks this time.
Lisa put the milk away, opening the lunch box. It had two layers. There were two blocks on the first layer. One was full of fruits and a fried egg in the shape of a heart.
Lisa looked to Jungkook with astonishment. That was so sweet!
Although Jungkook pretended to focus on driving, he still sensed the look from Lisa. However, he was too shy to look her in the eyes now.
Lisa moved her sight back to the lunchbox then. She opened the second layer. There was oatmeal inside with chopped scallions sprayed on the top in the shape of a heart too. Although it was an ordinary breakfast, Lisa was deeply touched.
Jungkook drove steadily. And Lisa was eating, so he didn’t drive fast for her sake. Lisa had a comfortable breakfast in the car. She finished it before arriving at the school.
The minute the morning class was over, everyone was playing on their phone. Some were playing online games, and some were chatting on WeChat while some were viewing the forum.
Right at that moment, the latest news post caused a sensation. Its title was: Hot News! A Poor Girl, Gu Lisa Got Out Of Her Sugar-daddy’s Luxury Car. [Picture Attached]
“What? Impossible!”
In the fourth classroom, a male student yelled out in surprise. The rest of the classmates in the classroom all got a fright. Someone said, “Chen Bin, what the hell are you doing?”
“Big news! Someone posted a post saying that Gu Lisa has a sugar daddy!” Chen Bin replied.
“What?”
Hearing that, everyone was shocked. They immediately looked at Lisa.
Some didn’t believe that it was true, while some couldn’t believe that it was true. However, only Lisa knew the facts. They immediately logged in the forum to read the post.
Lisa, at the same time, felt upset. She pulled her phone out as well.
“Lili…” Chaeryeong was worried. She didn’t believe that it was real, but apparently someone did it on purpose.
“Relax, I’ll be fine,” Lisa comforted.
She was the one in trouble, but she was comforting Chaeryeong instead. The person involved was calm and collected but observers were very worried.
Lisa read the post. It mainly said: Gu Lisa, who studies in the fourth classroom in the 12th grade, is from a dirt poor, one-parent family. Her mother is a factory worker with a monthly salary of three thousand yuan. To pay her tuition fee, Gu Lisa sold her body. On this rainy day, her sugar daddy drove her to school. The pictures attached were the scenes as she had got out of Jungkook’s car.
Lisa was annoyed that someone was so vicious as to do that, but she wasn’t upset or worried about the impact at all. If she wasn’t able to handle such a small issue now, she wouldn’t be successful in the future.
As for who had secretly taken the photo, Lisa decided to check Jungkook’s driving recorder. She knew Jungkook had put a driving recorder both at the front and back.
Before she got the proof, Lisa didn’t know exactly who was behind it, but no matter who he or she was, Lisa made up her mind to make them pay for it.
“Gee! Gu Lisa, didn’t you say that I slandered you the other day? Now the news has come out, and what can you say about it?”
The first one who opened mouth to argue with Lisa was Aisha. Aisha had always disliked Lisa, and now she seized the chance to make fun of Lisa.
Lisa didn’t miss any details of Aisha’s reaction. It seemed like Aisha was really surprised to hear the news too. Lisa believed that Aisha had nothing to do with it this time.
“Exactly! You’re a liar! No one will believe you,” Wu Qingya added.
“I don’t think so. Gu Lisa doesn’t seem like that kind of girl!” someone retorted.
“Don’t you know appearances lies? Her family is so poor. If she doesn’t find herself a sugar daddy, she even can’t afford to study in school!” Yang Yulu said acidly.
“You’re right,” someone agreed.
“That’s insane! A picture doesn’t mean anything. What if they’re relatives or friends?” someone argued.
“Exactly! Wu Qingya, I saw you get out of a car that belonged to Shao Aisha’s family the other day! Is Shao Aisha’s father your sugar daddy?” someone said. Although it sounded insulting, it made sense.
“What-what did you say?” Wu Qingya stood up abruptly arguing in great anger.
Nobody, except Lisa, noticed that Wu Qingya panicked a little.
Lisa was surprised. Is there really something between Wu Qingya and Aisha’s father? If not, why did she panic?
“My father would never do that! My father and I drove Qingya to our school together that day,” Aisha stood up for her father.
“Then how can you jump to the conclusion that Lisa has a sugar daddy when you don’t even have an idea of who was inside?” Chaeryeong said.
“The post says so, not us,” Yang Yulu retorted.
“Don’t forget Chu Yeji, Hao Soobin and other boys are Gu Lisa’s close friends. They are all rich kids. If Gu Lisa lacks money, they will help her without a doubt. I don’t think that Gu Lisa needs to find a sugar daddy,” someone said. Once he mentioned Yeji, Soobin and others, most of the students in the classroom agreed with him.
They were friends, and Lisa was their boss. If Lisa really needed money, they would help her for sure. In fact, no one truly believed it; even Aisha and her friends doubted the news. They simply wanted to vent their anger this time.
However, they of course hoped that it was true. If it was true, Lisa’s reputation would be ruined.
“Well, the tuition fee is a huge amount. Even though their families are rich, it isn’t their money. Who would randomly give money to others without asking for benefits?” Aisha argued, despite the fact that most were supporting Lisa.
No matter what, most still chose to believe Lisa.
“I think that the poor can be the rich someday. And those who claim they are rich were once poor. Weren’t your grandfathers or grand grandfathers the poor? No pain, no gain. As long as one is willing to work hard, and has the ability to create, he or she can be the first generation of the rich, instead of being a useless heir,” Lisa sneered.
Hearing that, many agreed with Lisa. There weren’t many real rich kids in their class, and their wealth was inherited from their previous generations who had worked hard. Even Aisha herself agreed, she had lived a poor life when she had been a little girl. Her family had merely become rich around 10 years ago.
“Gu Lisa, come out now.”
At that time, their head teacher walked out. She looked upset because of the news.
Zhang Qiuhua didn’t believe that it was real, but she had to figure it out, or it would terribly damage Lisa and their school’s reputation.
The minute that Lisa came out, Yeji and Taehyun ran to her. The two directly ignored Zhang Qiuhua, asking Lisa instead, “Boss, did you see the post?”
“Yes. Don’t worry. I’ll handle it,” Lisa answered.
Even though Lisa was in trouble, she stayed calm, but her friends were all worried. A friend in need was a friend indeed.
“Do you need my older brother to help you catch the one who is behind this? We must beat him or her to death this time!” Yeji said in anger, even though Zhang Qiuhua was standing beside her.
However, Zhang Qiuhua didn’t say anything, not because she was afraid of Yeji’s background, but because the rumor was so disgusting. No matter who was behind this, he or she should be severely punished.
“No, thanks. I’ll check the driving recorder myself,” Lisa said.
“Great.” Hearing that, both Yeji and Taehyun were relieved. They would never let the bad person get away with it.
After that, Lisa followed Zhang Qiuhua, walking away.
Soobin and the boys arrived later to meet Yeji and Taehyun. They couldn’t remain calm after reading the news, so they immediately came over.
“Where is boss?” the boys asked.
“She followed her head teacher to the office. Relax, boss will handle it,” Yeji answered.
“F*ck, once I find out who is behind this, I’ll beat him to death!” Soobin clenched his teeth.
“Exactly, our boss doesn’t need a sugar daddy at all!” Beomgyu added.
The teachers’ offices were on the fourth floor in the teaching building. There were four teachers in each office. In Zhang Qiuhua’s office were the headteachers of the first, second, third and fourth classroom.
Zhang Yuan was the head teacher of the second classroom, while Fang Qin was the head teacher of the third classroom. She was notorious for her meanness.
The minute Zhang Qiuhua and Lisa walked inside, she opened her mouth, “Oh! Professor Zhang, isn’t your class so famous recently, especially this student? She argued with others in the canteen first and then was involved in a fight; the Qing Gang caused trouble afterwards, and now she caused the news of a sugar daddy. Wow, she indeed isn’t simple!”
Ever since the top one in their grade had been in Zhang Qiuhua’s class, Fang Qin had been jealous of Zhang Qiuhua.
Although they were both common classes, the students in the third classroom were generally better than those in the fourth classroom concerning scores. However, Lisa had come top of their grade in every subject. Fang Qin was very displeased.
Other than the first classroom which was the top class, and the second classroom which was an excellent class, all the rest were common classes. Therefore, Fang Qin wouldn’t compete with the first or the second classroom, but loved to compete with other common classes.
Jiang Yuan didn’t say a word. He actually didn’t believe that it was true. Lisa’s family was poor, but Yeji would help her without doubt if she needed anything.
Jiang Yuan thought that the one who was behind that was in big trouble.
Lisa wasn’t a coward. No one could bully or take advantage of her easily now.
“All of those things were caused by others. Gu Lisa has only protected herself,” Zhang Qiuhua argued. If it was Lisa’s fault, she wouldn’t stand up for her, but since Lisa was the victim, she had to support her.
“If she didn’t annoy others, she wouldn’t have been in so much trouble,” Fang Qin said. She believed that it must be Lisa’s fault.
However, before Zhang Qiuhua could say another word, Lisa opened her mouth. “Professor Fang, since you already know those events, you’re supposed to know the reasons too. As for what has happened in the canteen, it was because someone humiliated my mother in public first. If someone insults your mother in front of everyone, I assume Professor Fang won’t stay quiet either, right? If you can stand and forget it, I respect your tolerance,” Lisa said in a sarcastic way, especially when she said the word “tolerance” with obvious disdain
If she could stand to let her mother and herself to be humiliated in public, she must either be weak or a coward.
“You,,,” Fang Qin was mad, but Lisa added, “As for the fight, that was because someone challenged me to do so. And now I’m their boss.”
“As for the mess of Qing Gang, it was obvious that Gu Eunha caused it. She simply wouldn’t stop attacking me. Do you still think these were all my fault? Then you’re indeed a very special teacher. Well, does everyone in your class hold the same opinion as you?”
“Special” actually meant “Abnormal” in the context. Having a teacher like Fang Qin, the students in her class probably would be the same unkind people.
Fang Qin was breathing hard in anger. She couldn’t even say a word to argue against Lisa, but she glared at Lisa, like she was going to eat her alive.
For a teacher it was a shame to be doubted in that way. She also didn’t expect that Lisa would constantly argue against her. However, Lisa hadn’t finished yet, so she didn’t give Fang Qin a chance to retort. “As for the scandal this time, it’s totally ridiculous!”
“Is a girl amoral just because she gets out of a luxury car? Couldn’t the driver be her relative or a friend? Can’t the poor have a rich relative or friend? In addition, there is just a photo that doesn’t even show the driver. You don’t know whether the driver is male or female. How can you jump to the conclusion that I’m behaving immorally? Since you don’t know the truth, why do you believe that it’s my fault? Aren’t you as a teacher supposed to know that it’s unwise to judge without solid proof?”
Fang Qin was in a rage caused by shame. She criticized Zhang Qiuhua this time, “Zhang Qiuhua, your student doesn’t have any sense of respect!”
“Am I wrong?” Lisa asked.
Lisa understood that she should respect her teachers, but the teacher should be respectable in the first place. Obviously, Fang Qin wasn’t a qualified teacher, so she didn’t deserve Lisa’s respect.
“I don’t think that Gu Lisa is wrong. Professor Fang, we don’t know the truth yet. It’s not a good time to judge her now,” Jiang Yuan said. He wasn’t protecting Lisa, but being honest.
“You…” Fang Qin was more than mad now, but didn’t know how to argue with them. In fact, Fang Qin knew that it was still a rumor, but she was used to criticizing others just because she didn’t like them. Fang Qin lost her face, so she felt too embarrassed to stay in the office, and quickly left.
Without Fang Qin’s interruption, Zhang Qiuhua then had time to talk with Lisa. “Can you tell me the truth?”
“A friend who lives in the same area as me drove me to school. It’s nothing like what the post says. Please allow me to handle it myself?” Lisa replied.
“Are you sure you can deal with it?” Zhang Qiuhua asked. “Yes,” Lisa replied.
“Fine. I don’t want it to affect our class or our school, otherwise, you’ll be expelled, and I can do nothing about that,” Zhang Qiuhua reminded and warned Lisa.
The rumor wasn’t a big deal, but was influential. If it could be solved quickly, everything would be fine, but if it went abroad, someone would have to be punished.
“Sure,” Lisa answered.
The minute that Lisa left the office, her phone vibrated in her pocket. She took it out and had a look. It was a message from Jungkook. She was shocked when she read it.
It was a video clip from his driving recorder. The person who had secretly taken the photo of Lisa was Chen Umji! Lisa would have thought that Umji had learned a lesson from what had happened to Eunha, but unexpectedly, she never learned to be kind.
Actually, Lisa previously had no intention to cause Umji trouble, and forgave her for what she had done to her. However, since Umji left the proof herself, Lisa would make full use of it.
Other than the video clip, in the message Jungkook also asked her: May I help?
He didn’t want to interfere in Lisa’s personal affairs without her permission. Although he truly wanted to do something for her, he didn’t want to annoy her. Most importantly, he believed that Lisa had the ability to handle it herself.
Lisa was curious about how Jungkook found out about the news, so she called him right away. The phone was answered within seconds; apparently Jungkook was holding it in his hand.
“Lili,” Jungkook answered her. There was a faint trace of concern and guilt in his voice. Yes, he felt guilty, because if he hadn’t driven Lisa to school on his own initiative, if wouldn’t have happened.
It was the first time that Jungkook had called Lisa’s name, Lisa’s heart lost a beat.
She asked, “How did you find out about it?”
“I was visiting your school forum out of boredom, so I found it,” Jungkook answered.
He wanted to know more about Lisa’s school, so he had visited her school forum. To his astonishment, the rumor went viral. He had been greatly aggravated, but he didn’t know that Lisa was from a one-parent family until he had read the news. He now cared more about Lisa.
“Do you need me to do anything for you?” Jungkook asked.
“No thanks. I’ll handle it,” Lisa declined.
“Great, if you need anything, just tell me.” Jungkook was slightly disappointed that Lisa didn’t need his help, but he didn’t insist. He trusted Lisa. They hung up.
When Lisa got back to her classroom, the first class had already passed one third of its course. Seeing that Lisa was back, everyone wanted to find out what she had been through. Some was worried about her, while some were mainly waiting to see a drama. The teacher knew the reason why Lisa was late, so she didn’t say anything.
Lisa went back to her seat. She comforted Chaeryeong with a mild look. She used her phone, logging into the forum and editing her post.
I’m Gu Lisa from the fourth classroom in the 12th grade. As for the fake news saying that I climbed out of my sugar daddy’s luxury car, I’m mad and will never let the person who created the rumor get away with it. You have no proof that I can’t afford my tuition fee. No one should randomly judge a person based on unreal information. I’m poor now, but it doesn’t mean that I’ll be poor forever. And those who claim that you’re born rich; weren’t you fathers, grandfathers, or even grand grandfathers poor? No one earns their fortune without pain. No one knows what’s going to happen in the future. Let’s go and see!
Can’t the poor have a rich relative or friend? My friend drove me to school out of kindness. Is there anything wrong with that? If anyone of you have done amoral things, do you dare to show up in public? Please delete the fake news right now and apologize to me, otherwise, you’ll pay for it!
Other than deleting the post and apologizing to Lisa, Umji would still have to bear the result. Lisa would never let her get away with it that easily.
After editing it, Lisa sent it out.
Although it was the time for classes, the news was so hot that everyone focused on it. Therefore, the minute Lisa sent her post out, someone discovered it.
