Chapter 286: Always Been This Quick-Witted

"Dr. Qin says he has slight depression," said Yeonjun with a heavy tone.

"Depression? Why does he suddenly have depression? How is he now?"

For the past few days since she hadn’t heard any news from the Jeon family, she thought that the best news was no news. She thought Little Treasure had entirely healed under her care. Based on what she knew about his reactions, he could really have kicked up a fuss. Had Yeonjun and the rest sought her earlier, it might not have been like this…

"Now his condition is getting worse, even when we’ve had many doctors over. It’s all not working, Lisa, you have to come visit Little Treasure quickly!"

"Where is Little Treasure now?"

"At the old residence, where my parents live!"

Lisa’s end of the line was silent for a few seconds, and then there was a slight shift in her tone, "Yeonjun, you’re hiding something from me."

"What? No...No, I’m not! What would I hide from you?"

"Little Treasure has already been ill for a few days now, logically you would have called for me earlier, at the very least, a call, but you didn’t. Not until now, when it’s already so late at night, that you’re rushing for me to come over. Plus, Little Treasure is still at the old residence…" Lisa paused, before she continued, "Father and Mother Jeon, they found out about my identity, didn’t they? They’re against me and Jungkook getting together, and they don’t let me go near Little Treasure anymore, right?"

"Uhh…well…" Yeonjun was used to being the one who guessed everything correctly. This was his first time being exposed with no way to hide. He suddenly turned sour and grumbled, "Lisa, since when did you become this quick-witted?"

"Hey! I’ve always been this quick-witted!"Lisa rolled her eyes, frowned and asked with a tired tone, "Second master, you know how Jungkook and I are like now. If I go over it wouldn’t be appropriate, what more with your parents' opinion of me now.

"I promised Jungkook I would take care of Little Treasure, and actually...tomorrow will be the final day of the contract. I would have to leave eventually.

"Even if I went right now, what about next time, and the next time?

"Little Treasure has the best doctors, his grandfather and his grandmother, and you guys to take care of him. I believe that as the days go by, he will soon forget all about me…"

Lisa said all of this in a single breath, not knowing whether she said those for Yeonjun or for herself.

Of course she was worried about Little Treasure, but if she visited him now, she was almost sure that she would give in the moment she saw Little Treasure, to the point that she might even agree to all of his requests…

She had already persevered for so many days, she could not just give up now.

"But, sister-in-law, a heart’s troubles can only be cured by resolving it. Little Treasure’s illness happened because he misses you too much. Every day, he looks forward for your return, do you really have the heart to...hello...hello…"

The line went dead, and Yeonjun was suddenly at a loss.

Damn it, I have actually failed!

Seems like Lisa had really hardened her resolve this time.

What do I do now? My poor baby!

Yeonjun had no choice but to report the situation to his brother.
