Lisa brought Jennie back to Ding City. lu Lixin and Zheng Yuntong called to check up on her and Jennie explained everything while thanking the both of them.

Aunt Zhuang learned about it by listening to most of the conversation on the phone. She did not say a word but went to the fridge and took out two pig trotters, deciding to boil them tonight as it would be nutritious for Jennie.

Lisa received Lawyer Zhou's phone call. As Jennie was also on the phone nearby and the signal affected the call, he moved in front of the French window and looked down at the quiet night scenery below. "Did you give it to them? What were their reactions?"

Jennie finished her call and turned to look at the tall, slender Lisa standing in front of the window. He had a hand in his pocket with the other holding the phone. His long fingers resting against the phone casing looked elegant. He emanated a clean, crisp aura, and had a uniquely mature temperament about him. Looking at him standing there made her feel at peace.

She heard Lisa saying 'yes' every now and then. As for what the matter was, it was difficult to tell even when listening in to it.

"We'll do it according to plan," Lisa hung up after saying that.

He turned back to see Jennie's curious gaze and Lisa explained, "I got Lawyer Zhou to give Krystal a lawyer's letter. We're suing her for intent to murder."

Jennie nodded. She did not mind.

Krystal had wanted to kill her. There was no reason for her to take pity on Krystal.

Her previous sympathy was for the baby in Krystal's tummy because it had a mother who did not know how to care for it. But for Krystal, sympathy would be wasted on her.

Lisa held Jennie in his arms and gently picked up her left hand. He was careful not to touch her wound. "I'll give you a month's holiday. You can rest at home."

Jennie's right finger was drawing a circle at the back of his hand. "Please don't. My left is hurt but not my right hand. There's no problem with it. If you let me rest at home and not let me do a thing, I'll feel terribly bored."

Lisa frowned slightly. "Don't people say that you need a hundred days to rest if you hurt your muscles or bones? I've given you fewer days than that."

"I'm really fine." Jennie looked up from within his arms with a disagreeing look. Her gaze fell on his slightly pressed lips.

She lifted her right hand and gently rubbed his chin to relax his tight muscles there. She quickly kissed him gently on his slightly stern, thin lips. "Let me go to work, please? Jisoo is there and my mentor knows I was hurt. He won't allow me to do anything too tiring."

Lisa got soft-hearted following her kiss, he lowered his head and looked at her soulfully for quite a while and finally pouted unwillingly. "Then at least rest a few days at home. Even if your hand is fine, you've got to relax after going through such a big shock today."

Before Jennie could say anything, Lisa held her tighter in his arms. "Just treat it as a way of making me feel better about your condition, okay? What happened today really frightened me. I need you to be at home to feel better. At the very least, give me two days to feel better about things."

"Okay," Jennie did not argue and agreed to rest two days at home.

Lisa contacted Jisoo directly, this was an easy leave to apply.

After hanging up with Jisoo, Lisa looked at Jennie. He gave it a thought and decided to inform her of his decision. "This matter isn't over. Krystal tried to knock you down but lost her baby instead because she did not have good intentions. This is retribution created by her own hands. That was not me. I didn't retaliate with hate."
