Jennie nodded and sent Taehyung a message.
At night, Madam Kim cooked again and got her to eat with Taehyung.
“Uncle Zhao, let’s not go home first. Let’s go to the hospital.” Jennie turned to look out of the car window. Her eyes dimmed as she recalled what Kwon Ruhai had just said on the phone.
“Yes, Young Madam.”
…
Half an hour later, outside the hospital.
Jennie got out of the car, put on her mask, and walked into the hospital lobby.
After entering the elevator, she pressed the level Father Kwon told her about.
There were a few female nurses in the elevator.
When Jennie entered, she heard them discussing. “Have you seen today’s Weibo hot searches? The melon today is so huge. I’ve been scrolling for the whole day, I can’t stop.”
“The Jennie and Nancy you’re talking about? I’ve been watching it all day. I didn’t expect the plot to turn around like this. To think that I used to think that Nancy was good. I didn’t expect her to be such a disgusting person.”
“You think she’s good. That’s the good persona the company created for her. Artists these days look the same on the surface, but in private, don’t trust them too much.”
“I heard that Nancy was sent to our hospital. She said she was still unconscious when she was sent over. Could she have committed suicide?”
“After this incident, her acting career is over. No matter how she tries to clear her name, she won’t be able to.”
“Sigh, do you think men these days smell like shit? I think that Jennie is very pretty, like a fairy, much prettier than Nancy. But Kai actually cheated on her.”
“The flowers at home aren’t as fragrant as the wildflowers. No matter how beautiful the woman, she can’t stop men from wanting to eat shit outside.”
No one noticed Jennie at all.
It wasn’t until Jennie reached her floor and walked out of the elevator that the nurses realized there was another person in the elevator.
“Eh, don’t you think that woman looks familiar?”
“I find him familiar too. I think I’ve seen him somewhere before.”
“I find him familiar too.”
“Let me think. That woman… I remember now. Don’t you think she looks like Jennie?”
…
Nancy was in the VIP ward.
Jennie knocked on the door.
“Come in.” Kwon Ruhai’s voice came from inside.
Jennie opened the door and saw Kwon Ruhai and Lin Huizhen sitting by the bed.
The moment she saw her, Lin Huizhen gritted her teeth. “Jennie, you’re finally here.”
Jennie ignored her and walked towards Kwon Ruhai.
She stopped in front of Kwon Ruhai and called out, “Dad.”
Kwon Ruhai looked more haggard than before.
Kwon Ruhai didn’t respond immediately.
He adjusted the blanket and looked up at Jennie. “You’re here.”
“Mm.” Jennie recalled the previous fight and looked at Kwon Ruhai’s cold expression. She felt a little sour. “Dad, are you feeling unwell recently?”
“It’s the same, it’s nothing much.” Kwon Ruhai looked at her again and stood up. “Come out with me, I have something to ask you.”
With that, he left the ward.
Jennie looked down at Nancy, who was still unconscious. A few seconds later, she turned around and left the ward.
When she walked past Lin Huizhen, she glared at her.
Jennie pretended not to see it and followed Kwon Ruhai out of the ward.
…
Jennie closed the door.
She looked at Kwon Ruhai and walked over. “Dad.”
Kwon Ruhai turned around.
They hadn’t seen each other for a long time.
Because of the previous conflict, they didn’t have any contact.
They were both angry.
Seeing Kwon Ruhai’s haggard face, Jennie felt a little sour and worried. She kept quiet for a while before saying, “Dad, how have you been recently? I heard from Aunt Lin that you’re sick. Have you been to the hospital? What did the doctor say?”
After such a long time, her anger and resentment were long gone.
Jennie was grateful to Kwon Ruhai.
She wasn’t his biological daughter.
But Kwon Ruhai treated her pretty well.
He doted on her and Hanbin too.
When Madam Kwon passed away and he married Lin Huizhen, he started to neglect them.
But as a father, he did his part.
“It’s just the same, why would I want to see a doctor?”
After a while, Kwon Ruhai realized that his eldest daughter had changed a lot.
In the past, Jennie was born with good looks. Everyone would praise him for having a daughter who looked like a fairy.
Jennie was even prettier now.
Although her facial features were still the same, she looked even more stunning than before.
Even his eyes lit up.
Her dressing was different from before.
The clothes were simple, but it was obvious that they were good.
Her eyes were brighter than before.
Kwon Ruhai recalled what Lin Huizhen said and couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
His daughter.
Even if she wasn’t his biological daughter, he knew that his daughter wasn’t the sort to cling to the rich and powerful.
Hence, he felt that Jennie couldn’t possibly not tell him about her return to the Kim family because she was afraid that he would stop her.
But if she really acknowledged her biological parents and didn’t tell him about it, Kwon Ruhai would feel hurt.
“What exactly happened to your sister?” Kwon Ruhai frowned as he thought of Nancy, who was still unconscious. “Is there a misunderstanding between you two? We’re family, can’t you just sit down and clear things up? Must things turn out this way?
“Your sister hasn’t woken up yet. Jennie, even if you and Nancy aren’t biological sisters, you two grew up together and are both my daughters. Don’t you have any feelings for her?
“What kind of misunderstanding could be so serious? Are you still blaming Nancy for being with Kai? Do you think Nancy snatched Kai away?”
Jennie looked up in disbelief and hurt.
“Dad, is that what you think of me?”
She couldn’t believe that Father Kwon would say such a thing.
He was biased towards Nancy.
“Do you think I haven’t treated Nancy well enough, that I didn’t treat as a sister? Do you think it’s my fault that she’s hospitalized now?” Jennie’s heart turned colder with every word.
It was normal for parents to be biased.
There was never a proper balance.
But Kwon Ruhai’s actions still disappointed her.
He blamed everything on her.
He never thought that Nancy had done something wrong.
Kwon Ruhai’s expression changed when he met Jennie’s hurt gaze. He realized that he had said something wrong.
But he wasn’t satisfied with Jennie’s attitude.
When he thought about what Lin Huizhen said, he wondered if Jennie’s attitude was because she looked down on him.
She had acknowledged her biological parents.
She was the daughter of the Kim family now.
The gap between the Kwon and Kim families was thousands of times greater.
It was normal for her to despise her useless adoptive father.
As he thought about it, Kwon Ruhai felt a blow to his pride.
His expression darkened. “Is this how you speak to your elders? Are you questioning me? Jennie, do you think that I’m nothing to you now that you’ve acknowledged your biological parents?
“Don’t forget, you grew up in the Kwon family.
“So what if you’re the daughter of the Kim family? Do you want to put on airs in front of me with this identity? I won’t fall for it!”
Jennie was stunned for a few seconds. She looked at Kwon Ruhai’s red face and felt her heart sink.
Her heart went cold.
Kwon Ruhai was still furious. “If you want to acknowledge your biological parents, I won’t stop you. All these years, I’ve been asking about your parents, but I haven’t heard anything. But why did you hide it from me? Even Aunt Lin knows about it, but I’m still kept in the dark.
“Were you planning on never telling me?
“Are you so afraid that I’ll stop you from acknowledging your parents?”
Jennie kept quiet throughout.
She only let go of her clenched fists after Kwon Ruhai finished speaking. She smiled and said mockingly, “Dad, so this is the kind of person I am in your heart. I’m ungrateful, cruel, and disrespectful to my father. I even caused my sister to be hospitalized.
“You raised such an ungrateful daughter. Do you regret adopting me?
“I don’t want to talk about Nancy anymore. Just treat me as an ingrate. I don’t have a sister like her. Only Hanbin and you are my family. As for the others, I’ve never treated them as family.
“Of course, they’ve never treated me as family as well. We’re just the same.
“As for my birth parents, I didn’t mean to hide it from you. We’ve already discussed it and found a time to talk to you about it, but now…
“Also, it’s not what you think. I’ve never thought of hiding it from you. I’ve always wanted to tell you.
“But you probably won’t believe anything I say now.
“You’ve already decided that I’m an ingrate.”
Kwon Ruhai frowned.
“I thought this would be a happy meeting, that at least it wouldn’t be as bad as the last time. It seems like I was wrong.” Jennie smiled self-deprecatingly. “If it’s just because of Nancy, then I have nothing to say.”
“Dad, I have something on. I’ll get going first.”
Jennie didn’t want to say another word.
She felt tired.
Even though she knew that Lin Huizhen was trying to sow discord between them again, she still felt disappointed.
Lin Huizhen’s success in sowing discord meant that Father Kwon had such thoughts too.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have believed her.
This wasn’t the first time this happened.
When she was still living in the Kwon family, Lin Huizhen often sowed discord between them.
Her relationship with Kwon Ruhai worsened because of Lin Huizhen’s instigation.
Jennie was willing to explain a few times.
In the end, she didn’t even want to explain.
Just like now.
She could explain it clearly.
But she felt that there was no need to.
“Jennie, stop right there!”
The door was pushed open and Lin Huizhen walked out angrily.
“Do you want to leave just like that? You haven’t settled Nancy’s matter, you’re not allowed to leave!” With Kwon Ruhai around, Lin Huizhen’s attitude was very arrogant. She rushed over and grabbed Jennie’s arm, not allowing her to leave.
Her voice was loud and sharp as if someone had stepped on her tail. “You’re not leaving until you settle Nancy’s matter today!”
“Let go.” Jennie turned around and glared at her.
Lin Huizhen met her gaze and was shocked.
But with Kwon Ruhai by her side, she straightened her back and exaggerated again. “Why are you so fierce? I’m your elder. How can you treat your elder like this? Are you the daughter of the Kim family now? You don’t even respect your elders anymore.
“Jennie, don’t forget who raised you!
“It’s time for you to repay me.”
Jennie looked at Lin Huizhen’s opening and closing mouth, and her anger was almost at its limit. She took a deep breath and looked at her in disgust. “Repay your kindness? You’re not worthy.”
“You!” Lin Huizhen was so angry that she wanted to slap her.
Jennie wouldn’t let her have her way.
Lin Huizhen’s hand was still in mid-air when she stopped it.
She grabbed Lin Huizhen’s hand and slapped her.
Lin Huizhen was left with five finger marks on her face.
Jennie pushed her away.
Lin Huizhen staggered two steps back. If Kwon Ruhai hadn’t held her, she would have fallen to the ground.
She covered her face and looked up, her eyes full of disbelief and anger. “Jennie, I’m your mother, how dare you hit me!”
“You’re not my mother.” Jennie looked at her coldly. “You found this slap yourself.”
“You…”
Lin Huizhen covered her face and was about to go crazy. She pushed Kwon Ruhai away and raised her hand to return the slap.
But this time, she failed.
She had just reached out when she saw someone walking towards her from the corner of the corridor. He quickly stepped forward and grabbed her hand.
Lin Huizhen took a step back in shock and fear.
Jennie was shocked to see him. “Lisa, why are you here?”
Lisa didn’t answer her.
He looked at Lin Huizhen coldly and let go of her.
He took out a handkerchief from his bag and wiped his fingers. After wiping them, he threw the handkerchief into the trash can.
The man’s cold gaze landed on Lin Huizhen for a few seconds before he turned to look at Kwon Ruhai, who was standing beside her.
“Father-in-law is just going to watch that crazy woman bully your daughter?” Lisa’s eyes and voice were cold.
He called her a crazy woman.
Lin Huizhen’s expression darkened.
Kwon Ruhai didn’t look too good. He pursed his lips and said after a moment of silence, “Since you call me father-in-law, you should know how to address Huizhen. She’s your mother-in-law, aren’t you being too disrespectful to her?”
“Mother-in-law?”
Lisa seemed to have heard a joke. “She’s not worthy.”
“You!”
Lin Huizhen was embarrassed again and again. She didn’t dare to say anything to Lisa, so she turned around and grabbed Kwon Ruhai’s arm. “Old Kwon, look at how your daughter and son-in-law bullied me. I might as well die.
“Why am I still alive? This is too embarrassing.”
With that, she loosened her grip and looked like she was about to hit the wall.
Kwon Ruhai pulled her back anxiously. “What are you doing!”
Lin Huizhen cried and pushed Kwon Ruhai’s hand away before sitting on the ground.
She then started throwing a tantrum. “I don’t want to live anymore. Nancy and I are being bullied. If you don’t help us, what do I have to live for?
“I’d rather die.
“Why are you stopping me? Let me die.”
Lin Huizhen didn’t come from a good family.
She knew Father Kwon from a bar. Back then, she sold alcohol in the bar.
It could be said that she used some tricks to get to know Father Kwon and got him to marry her.
“What are you doing? Get up.” Kwon Ruhai frowned and reached out to help her up, but Lin Huizhen refused to get up.
She sat on the ground and wailed. “I don’t want to live anymore. I don’t want to live anymore.”
This was the first time Lisa saw a woman act like this.
This woman was his mother-in-law in name.
He frowned, his eyes filled with disgust. Even though this woman was his mother-in-law in name, he’d never admitted it. He was still disgusted.
Kwon Ruhai also felt that Lin Huizhen’s current state was too embarrassing.
Although the inpatient area wasn’t crowded, people still occasionally passed.
It would be so embarrassing if someone saw it.
When he married Lin Huizhen, Kwon Ruhai knew that she couldn’t compare to his late wife.
He knew Lin Huizhen’s bad habits.
No one was perfect. He felt that as long as it wasn’t a big problem, he could accept it.
But at this moment, Kwon Ruhai was really embarrassed.
Although he despised Lin Huizhen, she was still his wife.
Thinking about what Lisa said and how Jennie slapped Lin Huizhen, he frowned and looked up. “What are you doing, are you really going to force her to death? Jennie, your Aunt Lin is your elder, how could you hit her?
“You’re too much!
“Even if you don’t like her, she’s still my wife, your stepmother. How can you treat your stepmother like this?”
At this moment, Jennie was bitterly disappointed in Kwon Ruhai.
He was there too.
He saw that it was Lin Huizhen who attacked first. If she hadn’t stopped him, Lin Huizhen would have slapped her.
“Mr. Kwon, I think you’ve made a mistake.” Lisa looked down at his wife’s sad and hurt eyes. When he spoke again, his way of addressing Kwon Ruhai had changed.
His voice was much colder.
He said coldly, “Only people worthy of respect are considered elders. Some people who aren’t worthy of respect aren’t considered elders to Jennie and me. Moreover, Mr. Kwon isn’t old enough to be blind. He wouldn’t be unable to tell if this woman beside you is bullying Jennie or not.
“I saw her preparing to hit Jennie, but you didn’t stop her.
“You don’t want this woman around you to be bullied. Of course, I don’t want anyone to bully my wife. Mr. Kwon isn’t the only one who knows how to protect his wife.”
As Lisa spoke, he reached out and pulled Jennie into his arms.
He didn’t smile at all, and his eyes were as cold as ice.
Jennie looked at Kwon Ruhai’s reddened face and was a little worried that his anger would hurt his health. She opened her mouth and was about to say something when Lisa coldly said, “Mr. Kwon, I believe you know how much this woman and Nancy have done to bully Jennie. You’re so biased. Have you thought about Jennie’s feelings? Since you don’t want to feel sorry for her, I’ll feel sorry for her in the future.
“She’s already my wife. No one is allowed to bully the Manoban family, not even her parents. Lin Huizhen, this is my last warning to you. If you dare to do anything bad to Jennie again, Nancy will be punished more than this.
“If it wasn’t for the Kwon family’s kindness to Jennie, do you think she’d just be banned now?
“Don’t force your daughter to a dead end.”
After saying this, Lisa didn’t bother about them anymore. He looked down at the girl in his arms and said in a low and gentle voice, “Jennie, I’ll take you out of here, alright?”
Jennie slowly looked up.
She glanced at Kwon Ruhai and saw him turn his head away.
Jennie smiled self-mockingly. She felt that her worry was ridiculous.
“Mm.” She nodded without hesitation.
Lisa turned around with his arm around her. Lin Huizhen wanted to stop him, but just as she moved, two bodyguards walked out and stood in front of her.
Lin Huizhen’s expression changed, and she didn’t dare to chase after him.
Seeing that Jennie was about to disappear from the corridor, she yelled angrily, “Jennie, you ungrateful thing! You’ll be struck by lightning!
“You’ll get your retribution!”
…
Jennie followed Lisa to the car park and got into the car.
“Still sad?” Lisa looked at his silent wife and gently pulled her into his arms.
He placed a hand on her head and caressed her gently. “Don’t be sad anymore. Besides them, you have a lot of people to love. There’s me, Hanbin, and Madam Kim. Don’t be sad for people who aren’t worth it. My heart aches, okay?”
Jennie leaned against the man’s firm and warm chest and smelled his familiar scent. Her heart instantly became peaceful.
She still felt like she was dreaming.
The clear heartbeat and the warmth of his palm made her feel real.
She could feel that the man beside her was real.
Lisa really came to F City.
But she remembered that he’d said that he’d be busy for the next two weeks and wouldn’t have the time to visit her.
“Lisa, why are you here?” Jennie looked up slowly and touched his handsome face. “Weren’t you at work? Didn’t you say you were busy recently? Why are you here?
“Are you here on a business trip?”
Lisa grabbed her hand and whispered, “I’m not on a business trip. I’m here to look for you.
“I saw the video of Lin Huizhen slandering you online. I wanted to help you settle this, but Taehyung said that you wanted to settle it yourself, so I didn’t interfere. You solved it very well, better than I could think of.
“I just realized that my baby doesn’t need my help for everything. Without me, you can still handle things well.”
Jennie felt a little better after hearing his praise.
She smiled and said, “So, are you praising me?”
“Mm.” Lisa also chuckled. Seeing Jennie’s smile, his expression relaxed a little. “Hubby is praising you. My baby is so amazing.”
It had to be said that Lisa’s appearance comforted Jennie a lot.
When she was in a terrible mood, the person she loved appeared and accompanied her.
Although she still felt a little sad, it was much better than being alone.
She was in a terrible mood just now.
She almost cried.
She didn’t care how Lin Huizhen and Nancy treated her.
But she had feelings for Kwon Ruhai.
How could she not be sad to be hurt by someone she cared about?
“If you know that I’ve already settled the matter, why are you still looking for me?”
“I was worried about you.” The man looked at her deeply. “So, I came. Now it seems like I really made the right decision. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even know that my baby was bullied and wronged.
Jennie felt much better.
But hearing the man’s gentle words of comfort, she suddenly felt a lump in her throat and her eyes reddened.
She really felt aggrieved.
“You’re crying?” Lisa pinched her chin and looked at her teary eyes. He frowned. “Why are you crying? Did I say something wrong?”
“No.” Jennie sniffled and suppressed the urge to cry. “Lisa, thank you for coming today. I’m just happy that the person beside me is you.”
Lisa looked at the girl in his arms whose eyes were as red as a rabbit’s and relaxed his grip on her chin. He held her face tenderly and kissed her on the forehead. “Baby, are you silly? I’m your husband, I should do everything for you. Is this worth you crying?
“If you miss me, I’ll come over often.
“Don’t cry, okay?”
He pulled Jennie’s face. “Since you’re so happy to see me, why don’t you smile for me?”
Jennie was speechless.
“Alright, don’t be unhappy. I’ll bring you to eat good food?” Lisa tried his best to make his wife happy. “Do you want to eat hot pot?”
As expected, Jennie was quickly attracted by the food.
Her eyes lit up. “Can you eat hot pot?”
“Isn’t there a Mandarin Duck pot? I can eat clear soup.” Lisa took out his cell phone and called Wei Zheng to ask him which hot pot in F City was good.
Wei Zheng was indeed a know-it-all. He quickly found a few hot pot restaurants with good reviews and sent their names and addresses to Lisa’s cell phone.
Lisa looked at the GPS and picked the nearest one.
…
Ten minutes later.
Lisa brought Jennie to a hot pot restaurant nearby.
It wasn’t a very famous restaurant, and the renovation wasn’t very high-end. The few hot pot restaurants that Wei Zheng found were all old local hot pot restaurants. They had average surroundings, but the taste was very good.
Jennie loved to eat in such stores.
Before getting out of the car, she thought that it was a good thing that Lisa was more low-profile today and didn’t drive a Lamborghini or Bugatti.
He drove a black Bentley.
Although it was considered a luxury car, it was considered low-profile compared to his sports cars that cost tens of millions.
Lisa led Jennie out of the car.
It wasn’t a holiday today, and it was daytime, so there weren’t many people at the hot pot restaurant.
Wei Zheng had already booked a private room for them.
A waiter came forward to serve them.
Lisa gave them their names and the waiter led them to the private room.
There were a few tables full of people eating.
When Lisa and Jennie walked in, the girls at the nearest table immediately noticed Lisa and exclaimed.
“Wow, he’s so handsome.”
“That man in the black shirt is so handsome. Is he a celebrity? He’s too handsome.”
“He doesn’t look familiar. If he’s a celebrity, he’s probably a newbie and not famous yet.”
“He’s so handsome, he’ll be famous sooner or later. I want to take a picture with him and ask for his contact details.”
“Alright, don’t be so smitten. Can’t you see that he’s taken? Although the girl beside him is wearing a mask, she must be very pretty.”
“Why do I find the girl beside him familiar? I think I’ve seen her somewhere before.”
“She does look familiar. I think I’ve seen her somewhere before.”
“Do you think… that girl with the mask looks like that newbie called Kwon something? Let me think… Oh, right. I remember. Her name is Jennie.”
“Jennie? The newbie my husband Qin Han is following? Damn, I think she looks like her too.”
“If she’s Jennie, then the person beside her is her boyfriend? Damn, her boyfriend is so young and handsome. Wasn’t he an old man?”
“Didn’t someone say that her boyfriend is very handsome? But no one believed it.”
…
Jennie hadn’t eaten hot pot for a while.
Back in Yuncheng City, she rarely ate because Lisa didn’t like it.
When she arrived at F City, she hadn’t familiarized herself with the place and didn’t have anyone suitable to accompany her, so she didn’t go.
She always thought that the hot pot in Yuncheng City was the most authentic. She didn’t expect that the hot pot in F City wasn’t bad, either. The restaurant Wei Zheng found was actually very good too.
It wasn’t inferior to Yuncheng City’s hot pot restaurant.
She didn’t have to abstain from eating like other female celebrities.
She could eat whatever she wanted.
Lisa had never been interested in hot pot. It was Jennie’s favorite, so he accompanied her here.
Jennie enjoyed the meal, but Lisa didn’t eat much.
He liked watching Jennie eat.
He felt a sense of satisfaction when he saw her eating happily.
…
Food could cure people.
After the meal, Jennie felt much better.
Lisa could feel that she was in a much better mood. He patted her head. “You’re in a better mood now? Is there anything else you want to eat? I’ll go with you.”
“You don’t have to go back?”
Jennie placed her hand in his, and Lisa led her out of the private room.
He smiled. “I’ve already delayed it. I won’t be going back today.”
Jennie asked, “What about your company? Did you delay a lot of things today?”
“I’ve left some things to Wei Zheng, and some things to the Vice-President. If I don’t finish it today, I can work a few more hours tomorrow.”
Jennie liked it when Lisa was with her.
But that was without delaying his work.
She felt bad hearing that he had to work overtime tomorrow.
“Alright, Baby. It’s not the first time I’m working overtime. Don’t look at me like you’re letting me down.” Lisa held her hand and walked out of the private room. His voice was low and gentle. “I missed you and came to see you willingly. I’ve said it before, work is important, but nothing is more important than my wife.
“I’m already here, let’s play happily. Don’t let some small matters affect your mood, alright?”
Jennie sighed. It was true that her heart ached for him, and it was also true that she felt sweet inside.
What was it like to be loved by someone?
She felt so blissful.
She felt that she had all the happiness in the world.
“You’re really not going back today?”
“Mm.” Lisa nodded. Then, as if thinking of something, he frowned and pretended to be unhappy. “You don’t want me to stay here? Or do you already have an appointment tonight?”
Jennie said, “…Neither.”
Lisa asked, “So, you want me to stay?”
Jennie was speechless.
Lisa held her hand tightly and chuckled. “Alright, since you want me to stay so badly, I won’t leave.”
“…”
“Then, I still want to eat ice cream, is that alright?” Jennie didn’t harp on his work matters anymore. Since he was willing, she’d just be happy when they were together.
And she was actually very happy to know that Lisa wasn’t leaving tonight.
She didn’t really want him to go back.
She just didn’t want him to work too hard.
“Ice cream? No.” The man furrowed his brows and pinched the tip of her nose. However, he did it very gently, afraid that it would hurt her. “You just ate hot pot, and you want to eat ice cream? Aren’t you afraid of feeling upset?”
“But I just want to eat ice cream now.” Jennie acted coquettishly and shook his arm. “I want to eat mango-flavored ice cream. I really want to eat it. If I don’t eat it, I’ll feel uncomfortable all over.”
Lisa was speechless.
“Lisa, I want ice cream…
“Hubby, I want ice cream. Get me one.
“Hubby, I know you’re the best. You’re the best husband in the world. You’re the best to me.
“Hubby, Hubby…”
Lisa felt as if his heart was going to melt.
At this point, he felt that even if Jennie asked him for the stars in the sky, he would agree.
He was willing to give her everything she wanted.
Not to mention ice cream.
His so-called principle was to remain unchanged in front of others.
He had no principles in front of the woman he loved.
Mango-flavored ice cream? He would get it for her immediately.
…
There was an ice cream shop beside the hot pot restaurant.
There was a queue outside the shop. It seemed like business was pretty good.
Lisa let go of Jennie’s hand and ruffled her hair. “Baby, wait for me here. I’ll queue up to get you an ice cream. Mango-flavored?”
They stood under a tree.
It was summer, and night had fallen.
The sun hadn’t completely set yet, and even though there weren’t many people in the queue, it was still very hot standing outside.
Jennie really wanted to eat ice cream, but seeing that there were so many people in the queue, she immediately gave up. “Forget it. I’d better not eat.”
“Didn’t you say you wanted to eat it?”
“I really wanted to eat just now, but I don’t know how long I’ll have to wait. Let’s forget it.”
“I’ll queue up, wait for me here.” Lisa looked at the queue and smiled. “Wait, I’ll be back soon.”
With that, he turned and walked towards the ice cream shop.
Jennie watched as he quickly walked out of the ice cream shop. Most of the people queuing up to buy ice cream were girls. The moment Lisa walked over, their eyes lit up.
A few girls seemed to have said something to him.
Jennie saw that Lisa had rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, revealing the bow on his wrist.
The girl’s leather belt on the guy’s wrist meant that he was already taken.
The young girls knew it too. When they saw the leather rope around Lisa’s wrist, they looked disappointed and envious.
Disappointed that such a handsome man was taken.
