Chapter 19

When Lisa arrived, she brought fruit with her. Eunwoo had given her a key, but Lisa decided to knock first.

Eunwoo had already told his mother that Lisa was visiting, but his mother gave no reaction that she understood. When Lisa knocked, it was Eunwoo who opened the front door for her. Lisa smiled at him. Eunwoo invited her in, then said to Cha ShuLi, who was reading on the sofa "Mom, Lisa came to see you."

Maybe because she was currently reading, but Cha ShuLi was wearing glasses today. She raised her head from the book, look towards Eunwoo and Lisa, then went back to her book.

The book was bought by Yuna, who had been worried that her mother would be bored staying home alone. Cha ShuLi had never touched it all this time, but today she suddenly became interested. Quite puzzling.

Eunwoo helplessly pulled Lisa to sit down on the sofa and said "I've made lunch. Lisa, you can eat here at noon if you want. Just heat it up."

Lisa nodded. "Alright. You don't need to worry about me, you can go to work."

To be honest, Eunwoo didn't want to leave Lisa alone with his mother. He wasn't afraid that Lisa would bully his mother, but that Cha ShuLi's situation might make Lisa feel wronged. But Lisa was the one who offered to spend some time with his mother. This made him quite happy. Eunwoo had also hoped that the relationship between the two could improve.

He looked down at Lisa and faintly smiled. "Alright. If you need anything, just call me."

"Un."

When Eunwoo left, Cha ShuLi was still reading. It seems that she had no intention of taking care of Lisa. Lisa put down the fruits she brought on the table, then asked Cha ShuLi "Auntie, do you like strawberries? These strawberries are from Starlight Farm. They were freshly pucked and shipped from the farm just this morning. I'll wash them for you?"

Cha ShuLi didn't respond, but Lisa didn't care. She went into the kitchen and found a big bowl to soak the strawberries in. After washing them, Lisa returned to the living room and found that Cha ShuLi hadn't moved an inch.

Lisa placed the bowl of strawberries on the coffee table, then curiously looked at the book Cha ShuLi was reading. The title was 'Actor,' written by Xing Xin.

"Auntie, do you like Xing Xin too? This novel was made into a movie, starring Mo Zhen. Have you seen it?"

Cha ShuLi was silent.

Lisa pushed the strawberries towards her and said. "Do you want some strawberries? I just tried one, it's sweet."

Perhaps it was the aroma of the strawberries, but Cha ShuLi finally looked up to glance at the bowl. The berries looked tempting, but in the end, Cha ShuLi went back to her book.

Lisa picked up a strawberry, stuffed it into her mouth, and stopped talking.

Lisa wasn't the kind of person who liked talking in the first place. She wouldn't have said so much if it wasn't Eunwoo's mother. Ever since she was young, Lisa had no friends. She didn't know how to act pleasant. She had actually broken her own record by talking with Cha ShuLi for so long.

Lisa ate another strawberry and continued to quietly look at Cha ShuLi.

As for Cha ShuLi's illness, Eunwoo had already explained it to her.

After Father Cha died, Cha ShuLi's mental state had turned bad. Because Eunwoo had been busy dealing with his father's affairs and his own school matters, he couldn't care for his mother. Unexpectedly, Cha ShuLi was taken advantage of by some people and was cheated into giving up all her savings.
