Since Yeji did not know what to do with the virtuous Little

Jenjen, she quietly said, "Listen to Old Mistress' advice and bring

Yanni home so she can celebrate the Spring Festival. That way, mother and daughter can be together..."

Jennie was emotionless. Her innermost being that had been

lonely for so many days finally felt touched. She thought of her own

mother who was quietly lying on the hospital bed...

...

After dinner, Lisa saw Jennie hiding in the small tea room

all alone.

She hugged the electric heater to warm herself up because there were

no heaters installed in the room. As she huddled up to the warmth, the

graceful woman's body became limp and weary. Her half-closed eyes

seemed extremely hazy.

Steam rose from the black tea that she had recently made and placed

on the small tea table beside her. Amidst the curling fog, the fresh

scent of tea tickled one's nose before infecting one's body.

When Lisa looked at the woman from the outside of the tea

room, he felt like her gentle and sluggish appearance gave off a

calmness that could last an eternity.

When Jennie noticed that Lisa was peeking, or rather,

openly looking at her, she crawled up from the tatami mat. Her eyes

were still heavy as she quietly said, "This place is too warm. I can't help

but feel like sleeping."

Lisa saw that she resembled a sleepy raccoon when she pouted

her little mouth and used the back of her hands to rub her eyes. She

could not hide her weariness. She resembled the young lady of the

past who had originally lingered in this tea room and used her tender

womanly scent to disturb him.

His heart instantly warmed up before he bent down and picked her up.

His hoarse, raspy voice said, "Go upstairs and sleep properly if you're

tired."

"I can walk on my own..." She quietly resisted when he treated her like

a child. However, she soon plastered her head against his chest like a


puppy.

When Lisa saw that she was acting like a spoiled child because

she was sleepy, waves of heat stirred in his lower abdomen.

"I'll have to supervise you next time so that you'll eat more. You're so

skinny that it's almost as if your chest has lost two pieces of flesh."

Lisa said in a deep voice as he lifted her overly skinny body.

When his gaze drifted toward her chest, the monster in his body

began to clamor. However, he remained calm so as to prevent her from

discovering his innermost secret. That way, she would not ridicule him

to the point where he could not progress further.

"Are you going to feed me as if I were a pig? I've already eaten a lot!"

Jennie was very unhappy when he mentioned those "two pieces of flesh". Although she did not care whether other's considered her an

ideal sex goddess, any woman would still be bothered if somebody

commented on her 'flat chest'. This was a form of humiliation.

She lifted her loose pajama top and lowered her head to look inside

before she muttered, "Are mine very small?"

Lisa didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he saw how

serious she looked. When he saw the seductive sight of her pulling her

shirt down, he unconsciously gulped as the waves of heat in his

stomach became more intense.

"Yours aren't small! They can be cupped in one hand so they're just

right!"

Lisa's raspy voice shocked Jennie. She caught sight of his

angular lower jaw and seductive Adam's apple when she raised her

head. Since she had experienced this many times, she knew what this

indicated...

Lisa shoved Jennie under the covers when they reached

the bedroom. She immediately burrowed her head under the blanket

because she did not dare to look at him when his breathing was

uneven.

Her body was so large that she could feel the bed sink as the man's

warm body quickly approached her.

"Do you want to get Mother from the hospital so that you can

celebrate the new year together?" Lisa restrained his lust and

suddenly asked in a quiet voice.

Jennie's body stiffened up. She had never imagined that Lisa would bring this up. She assumed that Lisa would go

straight to the action. Thus, she had never imagined that he would see

through her worries and bring up the topic instead.

Unlike plants, humans were strongly influenced by emotion. Hence,

she was touched by Lisa's tone.

Aside from the surprise, her heart was faintly and unusually moved.

Lisa was probably trying to be more considerate of Jennie's feelings after he discovered that Yanni was going to

visit the Manoban Family.

On the other hand, Lisa had completed his duties toward his

mother-in-law Shin-Hye with all his heart.

A terrible accident occurred at the time. Woo-bin died on the spot

while Shin-hye was left barely breathing and was sent to the hospital.

Lisa hurriedly rushed to the hospital when he received the news

and commanded that they do everything to save her.

Shin-hye's life was only saved because several elites from the third son

of the Manoban Family's military hospital and famous surgeons from Luo

Hai's biggest private hospital were recruited to participate in the

emergency treatment.

As of today, he had smoothly and naturally referred to Shin-hye as his

"mother". This was definitely a first.

He had not called anyone "mother" for over two decades.
