Trial Marriage Husband: Need To Work Hard (Book 1)

Lisa gently stroked Jennie's hair and drew her into his embrace affectionately. After hearing her words, he was tempted to retrieve all the best things in the world - even his heart - and place it into the palm of her hands.

"Although we are going to the US, the Oriental Trend is still extremely popular. If you stay by my side like this, you will attract a lot of attention."

"So, what do you suggest?" a disappointed look crossed Jennie's face.

"I don't mind having a female interpreter by my side..." Lisa chuckled. His voice was deep and sexy, "I guess allowing you to experience Hollywood in advance isn't a bad thing. Negotiating on the foreign stage isn't easy."

"Aren't you afraid I will come in contact with issues that are confidential to Manoban Entertainment?" Jennie asked after relaxing a little.

"I already belong to you, so Manoban Entertainment is no different," Lisa replied. "If you want to be the breadwinner, I am happy to retreat to behind the scenes, hand everything over to you and stay at home to prepare soup."

"You are dreaming President Manoban...work hard to make money! Don't even think about slacking off."

Lisa laughed. He suddenly felt, the boring trip he was supposed to take, had suddenly become so much more exciting with Jennie around.

Jennie was an ambitious person, but it never affected her life at home; she was clear about her identity.

...

Beijing's entertainment gossip was still centered around NingNing's incident. With EH's slap to the face and her assistant's revelation, NingNing could no longer withstand all the public scolding. So, she filmed an apology.

A 16-year-old child appeared in front of the camera in a mess. She bawled her eyes out begging the public for forgiveness. She even paid online commenters to help her wipe her slate clean; it appeared, she really wanted to redeem herself.

Kim Chungha spoke to Yook Sung-jae in private. She wanted to know his plans for the aftermath and his thoughts on Jennie.

Sung-jae had his laptop in his lap; he looked much tidier than when he first returned to the country. He finally looked like a top manager again.

"I can't let NingNing off so easily..." - Sung-jae looked down at his laptop as he spoke - "...or else in the future, we might come across 'Big-Jennie', 'Mid-Jennie', 'Jenning', 'Little Jennie'...it will be neverending."

"So what you're saying is, you're planning to be Jennie's manager?" Kim Chungha exclaimed excitedly.

Yook Sung-jae lifted his head as he twirled the pen his hand, "As long as she's willing."

"I admit, at the beginning, I did look at her arrogantly. But, I can't deny, she is indeed interesting."

"I trust in your abilities," Chungha nodded. "However, Jennie is like a wild horse, she isn't easy to tame. In a way, she is similar to you. That's why I feel you guys match each other well."

"I will speak to her."

"Oh yeah. The position of Artists Director, when will you take it back?" Kim Chungha asked as she raised an eyebrow. Out of CL, Ian and Sung-jae, she felt in the end, she still trusted Sung-jae the most. Especially since both Ian and CL had disregarded her to some degree. She was hopeful Sung-jae would take back his role.

"I have no interest in that. I just want to focus on being Jennie's manager. Of course, if someone goes against me, I won't go easy on them," Sung-jae turned off his laptop with a cold look in his eyes.
