Rent A Girlfriend (JENLISA)

Chapter 14

LISA'S POV:

It was already late evening when Jennie and Lisa exited the cinema. Thus, as a good Unnie, Jennie offered Lisa dinner. She patted Lisa's back like an old woman and said, "Don't worry, ah. Your Unnie saved enough for us to eat dinner today! Do you want to eat something?"

Honestly, Lisa was also hungry but didn't feel like eating in a restaurant. Besides, she knew that Jennie was very thrifty. Feeling a bit considerate, Lisa looked around and saw a nearby stall that sold dumpling.

"Let's just eat that," Lisa said.

Jennie looked at the dumpling stall and joked, "Ah, Lili, don't be so cheap! I know you are broke, but your Unnie can provide today, no worry!"

"Hmm... if you say so..." Lisa pointed at a fancy Michelin restaurant quite far from their position, but the fancy building really stood out, especially with the golden light, "Let's eat there."

Jennie gulped when she saw what Lisa wanted to eat. She pulled Lisa and said, "Ah, Lili, you see, sometimes eating a dumpling is better than eating some fancy restaurant! You know they are mostly rip-off!"

"Uh-huh," Lisa smiled and followed Jennie to the dumpling stall. Jennie bought some, but she also saw some meat bao and sweet-paste filled bao. She glanced at Lisa and bought a strawberry paste bao.

"Let's eat while walking, ah?" Jennie said while giving a bag of dumpling and steamed bao to Lisa. Lisa stared at the bao buns. She was primarily raised in the United States and, for some time, in France. So she rarely ate something traditional like this. She took one meat-filled bao (steamed bun) and ate it.

"Oh, this is tasty!" Lisa commented while continue eating the buns.

Jennie smiled and walked side by side with Lisa while eating her bao. The evening sunset gave out a mellow atmosphere while they were walking at the side of a river. Jennie said that she wanted to walk to the bus station quite far from here because she wanted to save some money.

"Do you have fun today, Unnie?" Lisa said out of the blue.

Jennie seemed to think for a moment, and then she nodded happily, "Well, I got to have a date, eat a lot, won a movie lottery, of course, I'm happy!"

Lisa smiled and nodded, "That means my rental girlfriend service is good, right?"

"Good, good. For 100 dollars, you are probably the best! Ahahah!"

Lisa felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart. Although she knew that rental girlfriend stuff was fake in her side, Jennie probably thought it was real. Although she got nothing from this, it did make her felt good.

"Though, you are not so romantic ah!" Jennie complained. "You asked me to go to KFC for lunch. Playing some scenario, but you get flustered easily,"

"-I'm not usually flustered like that!" Lisa snipped. Truthfully, she mostly felt disgusted when a woman tried to flirt with her at a party and such. But she felt different when Jennie teased her.

Jennie shrugged and continued her complaint, "You also fell asleep on my shoulder when we are watching a horror movie! What type of a person would sleep rather than protect her woman?

"You were not scared at all!" Lisa rebuked. "How could I protect when you are laughing when the ghost appears?"

"At least don't fall asleep!" Jennie argued even more.

"That's because your shoulder is so comfortable, so warm and soft-"

"Are you calling me fat?!" as a woman who tried her best to maintain her weight, Jennie got triggered by that remark. Lisa shut her mouth and turned her head away.

"You are not fat. You are just fluffy," Lisa stated.

"You are just sugar-coating it!"

"What? I'm not sugar-coating it! You do look good!" Lisa yelled. She didn't know that she had insulted Jennie because she honestly thought that Jennie looked good with some fat here and there. After all, it made her chubby and cute.

It made her felt warm.

Jennie turned her head to the opposite of Lisa, "Of course I am! You also look good ah! Very beautiful, like a model!" she yelled.

Both Jennie and Lisa felt awkward because they felt they were praising each other, but why would they need to yell?

Thus, they accepted each other's compliments silently in their hearts.

They stopped at the bus station at the end of their rental girlfriend date. Jennie saw her bus would come up soon, so she waited with Lisa.

"Actually, I'm using this Rent A Girlfriend app to find a fake Girlfriend to show to my parents next Saturday, so they would stop matching me up with random person," Jennie said while waiting for her bus.

"T,That's really abrupt, but I will try to prepare myself for—"

"Huh? Who said that I will take you to meet my parents?" Jennie frowned.

"Wait, what do you mean?" Lisa was stunned when she heard that.

"Aish, lili, you are a good rental girlfriend. But I cannot bring you to meet my parents. You see, you are like a display bao bun usually put in front of a store, so people will look at you and think that the food in the store will be very appetizing. But they cannot eat you, ah, you are just a display bao bun!"

"What I mean is, you are too pretty to come and meet my parents! They will definitely suspect me of renting a girlfriend! I need someone more normal looking so it will look realistic!" Jennie said lightly with a smile on her face.

Right at that moment, her bus came, and she patted Lisa's shoulder before taking the bus, "I pray for the best for you, okay? Raise your price ah! You are too pretty for 100 dollars! Also, pray that Unnie will find another cheap rental girlfriend that is not too good looking, okay? Goodbye!"

Jenie entered the bus, and the bus dashed, leaving Lalisa eating dust with her gaping mouth.
