Jennie followed Lisa into the side room where his grandmother was happily chatting to a few people including Jae-wook and his wife Xue Meiwei, Minho's wife Lu Shan, Zhe, and his wife.

Jennie suddenly felt a sense of uneasiness that first stirred in the pit of her stomach before traveling to the tips of her toes. This anxiety caused her to freeze in place as she became too afraid to move forward...

When Tuzyu saw that Lisa and Jennie had arrived, she waved and greeted Jennie. Similarly, when Taecyeon who was beside her then spotted them, a warm smile spread across his lips.

Jennie had already met with the other elders when she attended the banquet. However, since Lu Shan had not attended the banquet, she pointed at Jennie and remarked, "Yeji told me that she had already rushed over to visit you multiple times since your return, Jenjen. Girl, you must've suffered while you were there!"

Lu Shan treated Jennie as if she were Yeji and spoke to her in a loving tone.

Jennie suddenly thought of her own mother. She was an elegant and gorgeous woman who had always been very affectionate as well.

"I'm fine, Third Aunt, i's all in the past. How are you?"

Jennie's gentle tone and obedient manner made her the type of good daughter-in-law that elders liked.

Morever, Jennie's eyes were now filled with tenderness, unlike when she was dull and indifferent with Lisa. The corners of Lisa's mouth curled into a faint smile when he watched this woman from the side.

Lu Shan smiled and replied, "I'm fine. Seeing you return has delighted your aunt's heart because Yeji finally has a friend again. You have to teach her well - that girl's unruliness is too hard to manage. It'd be good enough for her to pick up on even half of your personality."

When Yeji heard her mother humiliate her in this manner, she unhappily scoffed twice. However, glimmers of joy appeared in her eyes as she sneakily grinned at Jennie.

Old Mistress Manoban remained silent all this while. After the several people wrapped up their small talk, the side hall descended into silence.

Lisa stepped forward and held his grandmother's hand before he quietly spoke, "Little Pran drank a bit too much during last night's banquet. I asked Jennie to accompany me home, but forgot to inform Grandmother before I left. You're not upset with Little Pran, right?"

When this handsome man behaved like a spoiled child, it was sickeningly sweet!

Jennie mocked him in her heart. He had clearly been filled with jealousy at the time, but instead blamed it on the alcohol...

Old Mistress feigned anger and replied, "Don't let it happen again. There are no benefits to drinking excessive amounts of alcohol!"

Lisa nodded continuously as she jokingly scolded him. At this moment, Zhuan and his little sister Yuna were also present, causing the side hall to immediately become lively.

Jennie looked over and wondered to himself if all of the heads of the Manoban Family had been called over, regardless of their ranking.

Was a major announcement about to be made?

When Old Mistress saw that everyone besides the bookworm, Minho was present and accounted for, she instructed Butler Fu to serve everyone their tea.

Then, she cleared her throat and said in a serious tone, "I called everyone over because I have two things to say."

. Yuna blushed before sneakily glancing at her grandmother, clearly unable to suppress her excitement.

"Little Yuna isn't young anymore, and as a young lady of an aristocratic family, she should have found and decided on a marriage partner. During yesterday's banquet, I noticed that she seemed like a good match with the Kim Family's son. Thus, both of them should spend some time with each other, and we'll see how things go from there. Little Pran, since you're closer to Jisoo, I'll hand this matter over to you and let you contact him."

Lisa nodded, fully aware that his grandmother intended to control Jisoo.

However, the main issue now was with regards to Jisoo's side. He was afraid that they would not accept an arranged marriage from their family so easily.

Nonetheless, Lisa nodded in agreement.

When Yuna saw her brother nodding, she gave a sigh of relief.

One could easily tell that she was satisfied with Jisoo in numerous ways...

Yeji who stood by the side secretly stuck her tongue out and rolled her eyes at Yuna.

Nearby, Jennie read Yeji's lips and saw her say, "All her life, she was just hoping to get married to a good man and just be done with it..."

Jennie lowered her head and stifled a small laugh. Yeji's current temperament made it difficult for her to imagine how stern she needed to be when she held the scalpel and stood before her patients.

On the other hand, Old Mistress completely ignored Yeji's weird behavior. She glanced at Lisa before looking at Jennie and continued saying, "There's one more thing. I'd like to introduce this child to everyone..."

Butler Fu heard this and went upstairs for a brief moment before leisurely coming down with a girl in tow.

When he did this, everyone other than Lisa inhaled a breath of air while Tzuyu and Yuna simultaneously exclaimed, "SOMI!"
