Leaning onto Lisa's shoulder, a blissful smile appeared on Jennie's face. She lovingly said, "I also didn't expect myself to get married so soon, but since I met the right one, I couldn't bear to give it a miss."

Lisa looked down at the acting queen beside her. No one knew what she was thinking.

Miss Jin tried her best to tidy up her expression and said rather awkwardly, "Miss Jennie is right. It's tough to meet a good person, and it is a great fortune to meet one." As she spoke, she glanced lovingly at the Dongfang Second Young Master.

However, the Dongfang Second Young Master didn't notice Miss Jin's glance. Instead, he smiled and asked Lisa, "Where is Mr. Manoban from? I've never seen you before—you must not be from Wangdong City."

Lisa finally spoke. His voice was deep, casual yet dependable, and gave one goosebump. "I'm from Shunchen City, but work at Wangdong City."

"I see." The Dongfang Second Young Master asked again, "I wonder where Mr. Manoban is working at?" His gaze towards Lisa deepened. Could this Lisa be a big boss over at Shunchen City?

Lisa said in neither arrogant nor inferior manner, "I'm a staff of Zeus Airlines and work alongside Kai."

Zeus Airlines was the new enterprise with the most potential in Wangdong City. Kai frequently appeared in public places, and everyone knew him. Lisa often appeared alongside Kai and people also saw him, but they didn't know his identity.

When Lisa said that he worked alongside Kai, the Dongfang Second Young Master instinctively understood as him working for Kai and was his subordinate.

"Oh, Kai..." Once the Dongfang Second Young Master heard that he was a nobody working under Kai, he looked at Lisa with less passion in his eyes and his tone also became slightly colder. However, he had concealed these changes well and ordinary people wouldn't be able to tell.

However, Lisa had been through a lot and had eyes as sharp as an eagle. He saw how the Dongfang Second Young Master's attitude changed.

As the second young master of the Dongfang Family, he was so short-sighted. It was no wonder that after developing in Wangdong City for a few decades, the Dongfang Family remained as a second-grade family and couldn't be compared to the Cheng Family.

Lisa had also met the first young master of the Cheng Family, Song Kang. In comparison with the Dongfang's Second Young Master, in terms of both his words and actions and his horizon, Song Kang was far superior.

Miss Jin thought along the same lines as the Dongfang Second Young Master and thought that Lisa was Kai's subordinate. She looked at Jennie with a strange glint.

Jennie was the top debutante, a well-known social butterfly of Wangdong City, and was an expert at social interactions. She seemed friendly but was arrogant. The few men close to Jennie were all outstanding personalities, so how could such a woman who loved power marry a nobody?

Since she couldn't make sense of it, Miss Jin assumed love blinded Jennie.

At this point, the waiter walked up to the table that Jennie reserved. Seeing this, Jennie said to Miss Jin, "Miss Jin, excuse me."

Miss Jin had yet to recover from the news of Jennie's marriage and merely nodded upon hearing this. "Okay, see you again."

Jennie pulled Lisa over to their seats and sat down.

The waiter poured red wine for them. Lisa held the wineglass, took a whiff, and suddenly said, "There's a huge plot of land in my hometown. My grandfather planted grapes all over it. This year, they've produced quite a lot of red wine and Grandpa got Uncle Zhong to send me a bottle."

Saying that, Lisa took a sip of red wine, and with a disappointed look, he said, "This isn't as nice as our homemade."

"Are there many people who want to drink your grandfather's wine?" Jennie asked, even though she knew that Lisa wasn't exaggerating. Just how valuable was it to drink wine that Old Mr. Manoban produced?

Lisa nodded in acknowledgment of Jennie's words. He told her, "If you wish to drink it, go ahead."

"It will be my honor."

Jennie knew that Lisa was a carnivore. In consideration that Lisa had a huge appetite, Jennie ordered a Tomahawk steak set meal. The starter and French bread were delicious—although Lisa only liked meat, he also ate a few pieces of bread.

When they served the meat, Lisa cut a piece of the most tender part of the meat for Jennie.

"It's too much, I can't finish it," Jennie said. Her image as an idol burdened her, and she was always afraid of putting on weight.

Lisa gave her an overbearing gaze that didn't tolerate any rejection. Lisa looked at those slender arms and waist of Jennie. He was afraid that he would easily crush her. "Didn't you want to have my baby?"

"Eat more and prepare to nourish my baby in advance. My baby will be like me and will have a big appetite." Lisa had a huge appetite—for the same bowl of rice, Jennie would be 70% full with half a bowl, but Lisa could eat 3 bowls.

There was a reason for his tall height.

From time to time, the other diners in the restaurant would glance over at Lisa and Jennie. Seeing that Lisa had wolfed everything down and didn't even leave a crumb of bread on his plate, everyone frowned.

What was someone with such a big appetite doing in a western restaurant? Shouldn't he just directly go for street food?

Many Chinese people, especially those in the upper class, held the western culture in high regard. Somehow, they felt that western food was meant to be eaten slowly, that if one finished it to the last bit was embarrassing.

However, they didn't understand the concept that each grain of rice resulted from hard labor and didn't agree with being proud of finishing all the food on one's plate.

After finishing everything, Lisa was finally good. "You bought the ring. I'll treat this meal."

"Maybe next time—I've already paid during reservation."

"... alright then."

As a man, the woman bought the wedding rings and also treated the meal on their first date. After leaving the restaurant, Lisa kept thinking about this and felt even more like a freeloader.

He suddenly whipped out his wallet, took out a bank card, and passed it to Jennie. "This is my supplementary card, you can use it."

Jennie didn't take it. She squinted at that card and asked curiously, "What's the credit limit?"

Lisa said, "A billion yuan."

Jennie was stunned.

She finally understood the joy of those young ladies looking for rich old men.

However, she wasn't happy.

"I'll take the card." Jennie pretended to be calm while accepting Lisa's card and said, "After all, after I get pregnant, everything from prenatal checkups, giving birth, and buying stuff all needs money."

Lisa corrected Jennie's statement. "The money isn't for you to do prenatal checkups and for the baby."

Jennie asked, "Then what is it for?" She worked up a smile and laughed mockingly, "A year's worth of sleeping funds?"

Hearing this, Lisa was first stunned, and then his face darkened. Jennie saw that Lisa was unhappy and knew that her statement triggered him. She hurriedly shut up and didn't dare to be full of it anymore.

The atmosphere between both suddenly turned awkward.

Jennie didn't dare to look at Lisa, so she looked up at those dreamy lights on the buildings.

Lisa was the first to apologize. "Jennie, I'm not using money to humiliate you. If my action of giving you my bank card caused such a misunderstanding from you, I apologize for my action."
