As the saying goes, "Death before dishonour" Chan honestly felt like smashing the keyboard under his fingers into Jungkook's face but considering their difference in physiques, he silently killed that thought.
"Thump, thump, thump, thump" Someone knocked on the door.
Jungkook raised his voice, "Come in".
The door opened a crack. Eunwoo stuck his head in and saw Jungkook. Thus, he walked into the room and said, "Bro, you're back, I want to see how you're doing".
Jungkook's eyes creased into crescents. He was about to speak when Eunwoo suddenly asked Eunwoo, "Do you have a girlfriend?"
Eunwoo was stunned by the question. "Ah? No. Why are you asking such a touchy question...."
"A trash like you with no girlfriend isn't fit to talk to our Ice God".
"What the fuck...." Eunwoo could not help cursing. Then, he looked at the smile on Jungkook's face and suddenly thought of a question. He asked, "Bro Kook, don't tell me that you only confirmed your relationship with sis-in-law today?"
Jungkook kept his smile. Feeling somewhat awkward, he pretended that he heard nothing, raised his head and took another swig of beer.
Eunwoo was tickled, "Seriously, so the past while, you've been fretting over an unconfirmed relationship? Do you even feel guilty for making me call her 'sis-in-law' for so long?"
Chan laughed while holding on to his belly. "Oh my! So you just got attached today after all? Jungkook, you're way too good at acting. Act again and I'll post your nude photos online!"
Jungkook pointed to the door and looked at Eunwoo silently.
"You heartless rat, tossing me away now that you're done using me". Eunwoo did not dare to truly rile Jungkook up beyond this casual criticism. After all, it was possible that sis-in-law could introduce a friend to him. With this thought, he slinked away obediently.
Though Jungkook did not manage to sleep much that night, he was not exhausted when he woke the next morning. Full of energy, he went to find Lisa for morning exercise.
When the two of them met, Jungkook wanted to hold Lisa's hand. However, she dodged away.
Jungkook's heart tightened. He asked, "Having second thoughts?"
"Jeon Jungkook". Lisa glanced left and right. "You have too many fans now. They're everywhere. Let's keep a low profile and not let people see in public, all right?"
After he sighed in relief, Jungkook agreed reluctantly despite feeling a little depressed,
He was extremely sullen that he could only see but not touch his girlfriend. As they walked on the road, he kept looking at her. Whenever Lisa unintentionally met his eyes, she felt that his blatant stare seemed as if he was wanted to swallow her up.

Lisa's first lesson in the morning was advanced mathematics. She attended the lesson with Park Chaeyoung at the Yifu building. After the class was over, she ran into Park Jimin who had class on the same level. Jimin pulled the two of them to place where no one was and asked, "Boss, I heard that you and Jeon----" Here, he suddenly raised one hand to his mouth and whispered softly, "You and Jeon Jungkook got together?"
Lisa scratched her neck with the tip of a finger, shied her face away with a smile and nodded.
Jimin looked at his boss's discomposed and gleaming eyes and how her cheeks were tinted a faint red from embarrassment. He suddenly felt very unaccustomed.
"Oh, my, god!" Jimin widened his eyes in exaggeration. "Boss, what happened to you? Acting so demure! No, this can't be real! Return that awe-inspiring boss to me! Ah! How did things turn out this way? Is this really the downfall of our Great Qing Dynasty? This old Minister is incompetent; I have failed the former emperor...." As he spoke, he pretended to dab his eyes with his sleeves.
Lisa, "...."
Drama King Mochi!
She waved her hand and commanded Chaeyoung, "What a ruckus. Drag him out for execution".
"Order received!" Chaeyoung nodded. She seized Jimin's arm with a giggle, "My King, permission to rape before killing!"
Jimin, "...."
Lisa answered, "Whatever floats your boat, Consort Chipmunk"
Jimin's face instantly burned crimson. He was pulled away by Chaeyoung in a state of dazed confusion and looked slightly better only after a good distance away. He griped, "Don't mess around like the next time".
Chaeyoung explained, "My King needs to head to training and doesn't have time to play with us".
"I wasn't referring to that!" He was referring to that something before something. It was way too terrifying how a girl could say such lewd things with practiced ease!
Chaeyoung released him. "You're so long-winded".
Walking beside her, Jimin was in a dilemma if he should clarify further. However, when he recalled how Chaeyoung was usually like, he put his hand on his forehead and gave up.

After training that night, Lisa went to study with Jungkook. Having hung out with Jungkook for so long, she was beginning to emit the respectable aura of an outstanding youth herself. In the past, she would have never imagined that she could one day become someone who juggled both school and work simultaneously. It was way too scary how she was managing to develop mentally, physically and also character-wise.
This was the result of Jungkook's influence. Lisa was a little curious if she influenced him as well. Thus, she asked, "Jungkook, do you think you've changed after hanging out with me for so long?"
"I used to be a decent person" Jungkook stopped here. He was suddenly a little mournful. Only a short time had passed and he had been led astray to such an extent....
It was not just him either. There was not a single person close to Lisa who was normal.
Just how toxic was she?
Lisa narrowed her eyes at Jungkook, her eyes glittering dangerously. "Jungkook, the fact that I'm able to become an outstanding youth means that I originally had the genes to become outstanding. If you think that you've become indecent, it only proves that you're not decent fellow in the first place".
Looking at how she brimmed with pride, Jungkook did not get angry either. Instead, he had the strong urge to pull her into his arms and rub her head.
The two of them walked into the school building. Lisa peeked into Classroom 101. Feeling that it was suitable as it was not very crowded, she was about to enter when Jungkook suddenly pulled her back.
Into the stairwell next to the classroom.
Then, before she could react, he hugged her to his heart's content.
The stairwell was quite dark and Lisa was stunned. Her heart pounded furiously in nervous excitement. She tried pushing him away. "Hey...."
Jungkook hugged her tightly with no intention of letting her go. He sighed next to her ear. "It's been an entire day". His voice was somewhat aggrieved.
It had been an entire day of not being able to touch her. In his mind, he hugged and kissed her with doting indulgence. However, the reality was that he failed to even touch one of her fingers. It was a huge disparity.
Lisa stilled. She leaned into his arms and hugged him back.
Jungkook smelled really good. The scent on his body was clean and fresh like sunshine. His hug was spacious while his arms were long. Lisa felt extremely comfortable in his embrace.
After getting her into his arms, Jungkook was discontent again. He brushed his lips against her ear and tried moving downwards.
Lisa shoved him away and ran out of the stairwell.
Their study session passed decorously. After the study session, they continued behaving with utmost decorum as they rode their bicycles back. Jungkook did not steer his bicycle too far away from Lisa and followed her all the way back to her dormitory building. When she stopped, he planed one foot on the ground and looked at her.
After parking her bicycle, Lisa suddenly yelled his name, "Hey Jungkook".
"Mm?"
"I almost forgot". Lisa walked over, fished out a box from her bag and passed it over to him. "Here, your make-up gift".
"What is it?" After taking the box, Jungkook lowered his head and wanted to open it.
"Open it only after you get back".
He lifted his eyes and looked at her. Carrying her bag, she had already turned and ran off with her feet slapping noisily against the ground.
Jungkook looked at her leaving figure and grinned, his eyes brimming with soft warmth.
....
Back in his dorm, Jungkook opened the box and saw the gold medal that Lisa had won at the National University Speed Skating Championship.
His heart felt as if it was drenched in thick honey and about to dissolve into sweetness.
He sat there and stared at the gold medal for a good moment while grinning to himself. Watching him from the side, Chan felt that this was a freakishly terrifying image. Thus, he took a photo and sent it to the rest of their roommates. "Look, look, this is the result of getting attached".
The roommates all nodded furiously. "He deserves it!"
"A relationship turns a person unrecognizable like a ghost while singlehood turns back into humans!"
"Absolutely right!"
Your mom's egg, we actually really want to be ghosts as well! QAQ
After Jungkook finished admiring the gold medal, he updated his Weibo blissfully.
First relationship, please be kind.
....
Ten minutes later, Eunwoo's call came in, "Bro Kook, you forgot to switch account!"
