Have a Baby
The Jeon family parents and Lisa waited for a long time for the brothers to come down. They were thinking about whether to go up and take a look, but when they came down, Jungkook led the way and his face was as usual, but Jin followed him with a strange look.
What's wrong? The three were puzzled.
Going down the stairs, Jungkook walked straight to Lisa and couldn't wait to report his new discovery: "Lisa, abdominal muscles aren't good, they are hard and uncomfortable to touch."
"Huh?" The three people in the living room were confused by Jungkook's mindless words, but the same thought emerged simultaneously- where did Jungkook touched abdominal muscles?
So, three pairs of eyes looked at Jin who just came downstairs.
"Cough... meal." Jin turned into the dining room with a stiff face. This unsolicited move attracted the unbridled laughter of his parents from behind him.
Lisa pinched Jungkook's arm and smirked at his stomach, but she didn't forget to reply to Jungkook: "If it doesn't feel good, then don't exercise it."
"En." Jungkook was satisfied: Lisa doesn't like it. He doesn't need to exercise it.
After the meal, Mrs. Jeon said that she would let Lisa visit her garden, so she took her to the warm greenhouse in the courtyard. There were many kinds of off-season flowers in the warm room. The bloomed extremely brightly in the cold winter that withered spring.
"Mom, do you have something to tell me?" Someone had prepared tea in the greenhouse. Lisa poured a cup and handed it to Mrs. Jeon. If she just want to visit the greenhouse, she wouldn't leave Jungkook alone and only invite her out, so Lisa guessed that Mrs. Jeon has something to say to her.
"Don't be nervous, it's not important. It's because of Jungkook, I don't know how to say it." Mrs. Jeon took the teacup and took a sip.
"I know, take your time." Lisa smoothed her messy hair, and there was a faint smile on her face. The dim yellow light shone on her white porcelain-like skin which made her look generous and gentle.
She was a gentle girl. When she first saw Lisa, Mrs. Jeon can see she would like her as a daughter-in-law in her heart.
"We have all heard about your cousin. Jin also said that you might also have this disease." Mrs. Jeon held Lisa's hand on the table case across the table and said softly "We can't do anything about this genetic disease, but the doctor also said that the onset of this genetic disease is very low, so you don't have to worry too much."
"Mom..." Lisa was a little surprised, she didn't expect Mrs. Jeon to call her out alone because of this matter. Was it because she couldn't hold back this entire time when Jin revealed that she might also have this disease, so they were worried about it?
Lisa suddenly wanted to cry. She only felt that the last burden in her heart has been relieved at this moment. At last, she didn't have to worry anymore. All the people around her planned for the worst, but still had leftover energy to comfort her in turn.
"Don't be afraid, it's okay." Mrs. Jeon reached out to wipe Lisa's tear from the corner of her eyes and comforted her, "It's frightening to find out that you might have a genetic disease, but let's not be too pessimistic."
"But... in the chance that I do get sick, what if I only live for only a few years?" Finally, there was a suitable time for her to ask this question.
"That won't happen." It seems that this child was really terrified. Mrs. Jeon covered her hand with both hands. Both hands tightly wrapped Lisa's hands and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, even if it does, we will all be here."
"En." It's enough to have you, Lisa can't say anymore, and can only nod.
"Don't be afraid, Grandma will protect you and Jungkook."
Lisa glanced down and looked at her left hand. The jade bracelet gifted by Grandma Jeon tightly clung to her arm. The soft touch of jade makes her feel at ease, as if Grandma Jeon was comforting her.
On the other side, the three men who were left in the living room were chatting with each other. Basically, Mr. Jeon starts the topic and Jin answers, then they watch Jungkook's reactions quietly.
"Well, the R&D department's performance has been good recently, right?" Mr. Jeon tried to divert the topic towards Jungkook as much as possible.
"It's okay, from the game's release to now, the revenue is nearly 100 million yuan." Jin just finished reading the financial report before eating.
"That, Jungkook made a lot of money ah."
"..." Jin glanced at his father as if to ask, did you completely ignore the cost?
Mr. Jeon stared back: What cost, why don't you let your brother be happy first?
"Yes, Jungkook made a lot of money, and at the end of the year, he can earn a lot of dividends," Jin replied.
"Jungkook, what do you want to do with the dividends?" Mr. Jeon asked Jungkook directly.
"I want to resign." Jungkook, who kept his head down and said nothing, suddenly burst out.
"Ka cha!" Jin's hand became so heavy that he almost crushed the coffee cup in his hand. "Why?"
"I want to study the cousin's illness." Jungkook looked at his elder brother and said, "You asked me that day, what will I do if Lisa left me because... of the genetic disease?" Jungkook didn't understand it at the time, but at this moment he understood.
As soon as he heard, Jin's expression changed, he and his family tried their best to hide it. His mother even took Lisa out to talk about it alone, but how did Jungkook already know?
"You know?" Jin asked.
"Lisa's mother said that as long as she has a blood relationship with her cousin, she may also have this disease. If she has it then Lisa would have it, even if.... Lisa isn't dizzy." Jungkook had thought of it while he was at the Manoban family home, but he didn't express his concerns in front of them. Lisa didn't feel dizzy, so she thought she wouldn't get sick, but Jungkook didn't want to remind Lisa as he was afraid to frighten her.
"Then... what do you think? If Lisa is sick too?" Now that Jungkook already knows, Seokjin asked again.
"I didn't think about it." Jungkook shook his head, "My head starts to hurt when I think about it, it starts to buzz, it's uncomfortable."
This is a crisis that is about to happen ah, the father and son looked at each other and didn't dare to stimulate Jungkook.
"Do you want to study medicine to save Lisa?" Mr. Jeon asked out loud after a long time.
"En." Jungkook nodded. He thought about it and this was the only thing he could do.
"I disagree." Jin directly gave a negative opinion.
"Why? You said, no matter what I want to learn, it's okay." Jungkook asked.
"Learning medicine is a long and rigorous thing. Every medical student must study for at least eight years to treat patients independently. If they want to reach the level of Professor Lee, it will take more than a decade or several decades of clinical research." Jin continued, "You're smart, have scholar syndrome, learn things quickly, but it will take many years for you to reach Professor Lee's level."
"So, what should I do?" He understood what Jin said, that is to say, even if he studied, he would have to study for a long time before he can barely catch up to Professor Lee.
"That profession has technical experts, let those professional people study it." Jin said, "I talked with Professor Lee, through Minnie's disease, a lot of information was collected. After a period of research, they should be able to detect the cause of this disease."
"Really?"
"En." Jin didn't dare to fully answer, after all, no one was sure about scientific research. Maybe there would be a breakthrough tomorrow, or maybe there won't be any progress for decades.
"Then... what can I do?" Since he discovered that Lisa may have this disease since the beginning, Jungkook always wanted to make himself useful and do something, so he wouldn't feel so uneasy. Now the only thing he could do was rejected by Seokjin, which made him a little confused.
"Live a good life, don't think about anything." Jin paused and said, "If you can, have a baby, for a long time, our mother wants to hold her grandson."
At this time, Lisa and Mrs. Jeon returned from outside, then the three stopped their conversation in time.
Because it was very late, Lisa expressed her desire to go back, and the three members of the Jeon family didn't retain them. They got up together to send them away, until the car was far away, Mr. Jeon suddenly asked Jin: "Did you fund Professor Lee's research?"
"En."
"When?"
"Last Wednesday."
Wasn't that the day he was beaten up by Jungkook?!
"What did you talk about with Jungkook in the house just now?" Mrs. Jeon asked the father and son who seemed to be talking in riddles.
"Talking..."
"Letting Jungkook give you a grandson." Jin interjected.
"Really?!" Mrs. Jeon's eyes lit up after a while. She always wanted to hold her grandson, but she didn't dare urge Jungkook and Lisa, so she could only talk about Jin getting remarried every day.
"Really." Mr. Jeon answered his wife. With Jungkook's true personality, once he promises something, he will seriously carry it out. He seriously suspected that Jin's remark in the room just now was his escape route from his wife's nagging to remarry.

Back home, Lisa's mood became particularly good. Even when she went to the kitchen to boil water, her steps were full of joy. But Jungkook was very worried and frowned the entire time, she didn't know what upset him.
What happened in the living room while I was in the greenhouse?
Lisa poured a cup of freshly boiled water, walked to Jungkook and asked, "What's wrong with you? Do you have something to say?"
Jungkook glanced at Lisa, hesitated for a moment and replied, "Elder brother helped me a lot."
"Elder brother really helped us a lot."
"Then... he just asked me for one thing." Jungkook said.
"Elder brother asked you to do something?"Lisa was a little surprised. What can Jin ask for that he needs Jungkook's help? Although she was feeling somewhat incredulous, but not matter what it is, they couldn't postpone Jin's request because of how much he helped them in the past, "What is it?"
Jungkook looked at Lisa and was about to speak but stopped.
"What is it? Say it." Lisa was speechless, how could Jungkook still hesitate?
"But you don't like it," Jungkook said sullenly.
"I don't like it?" Lisa was stunned. "What do I dislike ah?"
"Elder brother said let's have a baby." Jungkook said and immediately lowered his head, not daring to look at Lisa's expression.
"Have..." Lisa blinked her eyes. What's going on? Nowadays, wasn't it popular that the mother-in-law pressures the daughter-in-law to give birth, why has it changed to the brother-in-law? Lisa put down the water cup in her hand and held her forehead to calm down. "Why do you think I don't like children?"
Jungkook didn't speak. He silently took out a small blue package from his pocket. He didn't know what it was before, but after using it, he naturally understood its function. Lisa didn't want a child, so she would prepare this.
"..." This guy just used one yesterday, when did he hide another one?
"It doesn't matter. If you don't want to or not, I'll go to the company tomorrow and ask my elder brother to change his request." Jungkook saw that Lisa was delayed in her words, so he believed his conjectures were correct.
"I..." Lisa looked at Jungkook, who quickly compromised, and suddenly realized that there was a problem. She once worried about whether she wanted to have children and made that decision silently, but she never once asked Jungkook if he wanted children. It was because Jungkook always compromised with her so easily and without another thought, so she took her decision for granted as their decision.
"Do you want a child?" Lisa asked Jungkook, "Isn't it because elder brother want us to have children, or do you like children yourself?"
"I like." Without hesitation, Jungkook nodded. In his consciousness, the child birthed by Lisa must be as lovely as Lisa when she was a child. Just thinking about it, he couldn't help but be happy.
"Then... we will have."
Lisa was suddenly no longer afraid. Her family was stronger and greater than what she imagined. She believed that even without her presence, her children will grow up healthily and happily with their families' company.
