The moment she opened the door, she was besieged by a sea of pink. Sure enough, it was the same decor as her old room.

Lisa pressed her forehead. She opened the balcony door and walked out. After glancing around, she noticed the villa next door and was stunned.

She veered her eyes away quickly before heading back into her room. All her belongings from the old apartment were already here, so she started to unpack.

She received a text notification halfway through.

Lisa walked over to pick up her phone and saw it was a text from Yunhyeong.

Lin: [Lili, I have sent the revision material. It will probably reach in a week. Let me know when you receive it.]

Lisa’s lips twitched instantly.

She had just gotten assailed by the pink room, and now her third older brother was tormenting her with the study material.

Lisa replied quickly: [Brother Yunhyeong, we just moved today. Did you mail it to the old address?]

Yunhyeong was caught by surprise: [Yeah. Why the sudden move?]

Lisa pulled out a chair and sat down before she texted: [Mom and Dad said it was time to shift places.]

She paused before adding: [It doesn’t matter if you sent it to the old address. I’ll just tell the delivery guy to bring it over when he calls.]

[Okay. Send me the new address.]

Lisa retrieved the villa access card her mother had given her and sent Yunhyeong the address printed on it.

[Oh yes. I sent you the incense a few days ago. It should be arriving soon.]

[Sure. Thanks, Lili.]

Yunhyeong stopped chatting after sending the last text message. He put down the phone, leaned his head against the couch, and looked up at the ceiling. He suddenly found the place empty.

Lisa managed to straighten out her room slightly before heading downstairs.

Her father was standing at the door talking to someone when she came down. Lisa threw a glance at him and then veered her eyes away. She turned to enter the dining room.

There were over ten dishes on the table, which had been ordered in.

Song Chaerin set the table as she said, “Lili, ask your brothers about when they are coming home. Couldn’t they have come back earlier since we are moving today?”

“Okay.”

Lisa retrieved her phone from her pocket and called both of them. Before long, she hung up and said, “Brother Taehyung is almost here. Brother Namjoon just left work and will be home in 30 minutes or so.”

“Are you hungry? You can start without them if you are,” asked Song Chaerin.

“I’m good.” Lisa shook her head.

She poured a glass of warm water, leaned against the wall lazily, and looked at her father. He had just finished the conversation at the door and was walking back in.

“Are they asking to buy the house again?” asked Song Chaerin after glancing at her husband.

Huo Jiyong came closer before shrugging helplessly with his palms in the air. “Yeah. I’ve already rejected them so many times, but they refuse to give up.”

Song Chaerin’s lips twitched. “What’s wrong with them? Why do they want our place so badly?”

“In any case, they look like dumbasses to me. They were willing to pay two times the market value. Wouldn’t it be smarter to buy a brand new place? I really don’t get it.” Huo Jiyong shook his head.
