Because of Xia Zhetao's silence, Lisa finally got a bit of tranquility. He did not even think that his threatening words had caused Xia Zhetao to have a headcanon. Right now, he only had one thought.

Back then, the reason why he had asked Rosé to come over to help was to let her act it out with him and make Jennie misunderstand. He wanted to take advantage of it to divorce her. But now, how should he explain this misunderstanding? It gave him a headache.

At this moment, Jennie still did not know what kind of surprise Lisa was preparing to give her when they met again. Cough. Cough. Well, she might be scared as well.

After provoking Jung Tae without leaving a trace, Jennie learned that Jung Tae had gone home and fought against Song Ji-Hye and her daughter not long after that.

Jennie was satisfied to hear that. Song Ji-Hye had been pretentious her whole life. She worked hard to plan everything and thought that everything was under her control. However, she had not expected her plan to fail. Besides, it was impossible for her to get the upper hand again according to Jennie's personality.

"Jennie, I heard from Uncle Xiao that you kicked Yu-min out of the Kim Enterprise some time ago. You... Did he come to find you and give you trouble?" Min-a had been busy with the matter of Leo attending kindergarten recently, so she did not care much about the company's affairs.

Now that Leo's kindergarten matters had been settled, she finally had time to ask about this matter.

In fact, Min-a was really not interested in the incident of Jennie kicking Yu-min out of the Kim Enterprise. Not only was she uninterested, but she also thought that Jennie's decision had been very correct.

It was not that she avoided Yu-min because she was worried that she would help Jung Tae grab the Kim family property and status like what the outsiders said. She just did not like Yu-min who was obviously an illegitimate daughter but had a temperament that was more arrogant than Jennie, the legitimate daughter. She was a very unreasonable girl. To be straightforward, she kept Yu-min in the Kim Enterprise to give Jung Tae some respect. Otherwise, with her ability, she was just making trouble instead of helping.

What Min-a really cared about was whether Jung Tae had come to trouble Jennie after she kicked her away. Although she had always believed in Jennie's ability, Jung Tae was Jennie's relative after all. Min-a worried that Jennie would be bullied by Jung Tae.

Jennie was stunned for a while. She looked at Min-a, who was obviously worried and smiled. "He came to find me, of course. But Mom, you don't have to worry. I have already sent him away. Besides, he probably won't dare to come and find trouble with me in the future anymore, so you can rest assured."

"Huh?" Min-a glanced at Jennie in surprise.

Jennie smiled and did not speak.

Yu-min's incident was soon found out by Xiao Jingyao. Xiao Jingyao was originally Woobin's subordinate, so he did not plan to hide it from Woobin. He had already told Woobin and the old master about this matter in detail previously.

After hearing about this, the old master was very angry. In the end, he had almost immediately asked people to find a reason to send Yu-min to Yavadvipa.

Fortunately, Jennie managed to stop the old master's plan at the last moment by saying, "I'll take care of them myself, so Grandpa, you guys shouldn't interfere."

Poor Jung Tae was in a panic and did not dare to let the old master know about this. He was scared that the old master would vent his anger on him, but he did not expect the old master to already know about it. He was just reining it in.

So, some things would be forgotten easily if someone made a fuss over it. However, this kind of forced tranquility before the storm was the scariest one.

Although Woobin and other people knew about Yu-min's incident, they all hid it from Min-a.

On the one hand, they felt that if Min-a knew about this, she would definitely fight with Yu-min without thinking of anything. It was not worth it.

On the other hand, they did not want Min-a to worry about Jennie anymore. For several days after the previous elevator incident, Min-a would have nightmares of something bad happening to Jennie almost every night, so she was under the weather. Because of this, Jennie and Woobin were worried for a while.

Now, they finally used Leo's affair to distract her attention from that incident. If they told her about it now, it might cause her to panic again.

Min-a looked at the smile on Jennie's face. She knew that she did not want to talk much about it, so she did not ask anymore. She could only repeat her words, "No matter who goes to find trouble with you in the future, you must ask someone to tell me and your dad if you can't solve it. Don't let yourself be bullied."

"Okay, I get it," Jennie responded obediently.

Min-a muttered to herself. Suddenly, she took Jennie's hand as if she thought of something and said, "Oh yeah, I heard that Minchul will be coming back in a few days. Your third aunt's child is still in the hospital. After Minchul comes back, maybe he will go to the company. You just fought with Yu-min and her family. Although he is a slight improvement over Yu-min, you can't explain it clearly even though you're not at fault. They are a family, after all. You better pay more attention to him and be careful."

"Minchul?" Jennie frowned as she found this name unfamiliar.

Min-a was stunned. Then, she seemed to have thought of something and said with relief, "Minchul is Yu-min's younger brother. He is also your..."

Now that Min-a mentioned it, Jennie finally remembered that besides Yu-min, her half-sister, she still had a strange younger brother who was about the same age as her.

It was just that this younger brother seemed to have been studying abroad. It was said that he was a high-achieving student who was completely different from Yu-min. He could only come back for several times a year, so since Jennie became the current Jennie, she had not met this so-called younger brother at all.

"Minchul has been studying abroad in recent years, and you basically stayed at Manoban Family's house and rarely came back. It is normal that you suddenly forget about him."

"You're right." What Min-a said happened to give Jennie an out, so Jennie quickly smiled and responded to hide her unnatural moment.

"But..." Jennie quickly returned to normal. She changed the topic and solved her confusion at the same time. "I heard that he has been studying abroad all the time, and he didn't even come back to grandma's memorial day not long ago. Why did he come back suddenly?"

"I'm not particularly clear about the details as well. I heard that his courses abroad have ended, so he wants to come back to find something to do."

Min-a's words raised Jennie's guard. The courses had ended? If she was not mistaken, the winter break abroad had ended a long time ago and now was the beginning of a new semester. If Minchul's courses had really ended, he should have been back before the winter break. Why would he wait until now?
