Lost Memories | A Liskook Adaptation

Chapter 86: Unmovable Boulder Part 2

Jungkook stares at her and doesn't say anything.

Lisa turns her head to the side as if nothing happened. She picks up the glass of water and takes a sip of it.

He stares at her while tapping his fingers on the table, "Mm, the duck wings that I haven't been able to have for these past few years, you've worked hard."

Lisa wants to burst out laughing, but she doesn't want to be too arrogant. She puts the glass down and glares at him, "Jungkook, I've just discovered that you have quite the quality of a 'resentful husband'. Why is a big man like you being so petty with me?"

Jungkook picks up his chopsticks again and resumes eating.

"Some women are forgetful, if you don't remind her of what she owes......." he lifts his eyes to look at her, which carries a hint of a smile, "she won't be prepared to give her 'body' (idiom, to give one's heart) to the one she owes."

Lisa retorts, "I've already given you my body!"

"It was one night only," he answers.

Lisa, "......only?"

What does he mean by "it was one night only"? Last night was so......how could he use the word "only" to describe it?

She then hears him say, "Every day, every month, and every year, I want you to be with me. This is what I call giving your body (heart) to me."

Lisa is a bit stunned.

They stare into each other's eyes. His pupils are pitch black, and her heart is pounding.

She reaches out to grab his hand, "Jungkook, every day, every month, and every year, I want to be with you."

He smiles.

She smiles too. They continue eating their noodles happily.

After they finish eating, she washes the dishes while Jungkook sits on the sofa to watch the news on TV. When she's done washing the dishes, she takes a look at the time. It's only 2 pm. She sits leaning against him, "Hey, what are we going to do with these three days?"

Jungkook glances at her. His arm on the back of the couch slides down to grab her shoulder, "Let's go back to Beijing?"

Lisa doesn't say anything. She has already heard from Jungkook that Jieun said that she was a student of Class '05 from the National Public Security University. If this is true, it means that she studied in Beijing and not Jiang Cheng. And everything in the past, including her and Jungkook risking their lives and being separated, may have also happened in Beijing.

And as to why everyone around her treats her as "Lisa," Jungkook's explanation is, "Lisa's old neighbors mentioned that she had an older cousin. If Leeah and Lisa are cousins, it wouldn't be surprising that you two would look alike. Furthermore, you or she may have gone through plastic surgery."

This speculation makes Lisa uncomfortable. For one, she doesn't know what has happened to the girl whom she has taken the identity from; Secondly, her face may not actually be hers, which makes her extremely uneasy.

"Okay, let's go back to Beijing," she looks at him with determination.

When Jungkook finishes booking a flight for next morning and walks out of the study room, he sees Lisa sitting on the couch looking out the window deep in thoughts. He keeps quiet for a moment before walking over and pulling her up, "Let's go."

"Where are we going?"

"To fulfill my promise."

Lisa asks curiously, "What promise?"
