"I... I didn't..." Sungjae protested immediately, although he sounded guilty.

In hindsight, after he mulled over Jennie's words, he realized that she was right...

"Your Big Brother is so strict with you because he doesn't want you to have that mindset. He wants you to be independent, and that involves toughening you up mentally as well. You have to learn to rely on yourself to solve the problems that you face. Perhaps, before a crisis or conflict happens, you can put an end to it. You shouldn't allow disastrous consequences to occur," Jennie said patiently.

She couldn't help but advise Sungjae, as he was about the same age as her brother.

Sungjae let Jennie's words wash over him as he sat there in silence. Indeed, he was too arrogant and pompous at times and didn't think about the consequences. He still relied on his family and background subconsciously...

Rowoon raised his head, looking surprised as he studied the girl. He looked as though he had never expected her to give such earnest advice.

Jennie patted Sungjae's shoulders. "Third Young Master, that's why I'm different from you. You are just a racer with no money or power, but my boyfriend is the president of the LM Corporation and the head of the clan. Of course I can hit anyone I like!"

Sungjae, who had been feeling touched a second ago, was rendered speechless...

When Jennie stopped talking, she gave a fawning smile to the man beside her. Her expression seemed to say 'You can't scold me, and I know I can beat other people because I have your support.' Jennie then said, "Mr. Manoban, even though I was in the wrong, I only beat them up after weighing the situation. I knew I could, that was why I hit them."

Lisa watched and smiled at the girl, who looked really earnest. "That sounds reasonable, Miss Kim."

Sungjae was speechless...

Reasonable?

He couldn't believe this. She had merely concocted some nonsense! How could his brother, who was so intelligent, think that this sounded reasonable?

Sungjae couldn't help but inch closer to his second brother. "Indeed, people who are in love are fools. That applies to Big Brother too..."

Pei Nanxu shook his head and grinned.

The car had reached Cloud Manor. Jennie realized this when the car stopped. "Hmmm..."

Sungjae opened the door eagerly and said, "Big Sister-In-Law! Why aren't you getting out? Come on!"

She just wanted to go home!

She shuffled her feet awkwardly as she pondered how she should take her leave...

Lisa, who had just gotten out, strode over to her and took her other hand, which wasn't injured, casually. "Join us for a meal. Consider this your formal introduction to Sungjae and Rowoon."

As the warmth of his palm coursed through her entire body, Jennie couldn't seem to hear what the man said. She stared blankly at the man's exquisite features, which could bewitch anyone. Instinctively, she blurted out, "Oh... Okay..."

The moment she blurted this out, she really wished that she could slap herself.

What happened to saying that looks were deceiving?

She wanted to break up!

In the end, she obediently allowed herself to be led into the house.

Sungjae rushed to get the first-aid kit. As he applied medicine on his wounds, he reeled off aloud. "I want to eat Uncle Zhong's braised pork, stewed fish, sweet and sour pork ribs, poached beef slices, and fried chicken..."
