Somi was surprised when she got Lisa's call, and when Lisa told her she would be attending with her wife, Somi was even more surprised. She immediately gave Lisa the time and location of the class reunion.

The reunion would take place in one week. Because it was a large scale reunion with over a hundred people attending, the venue was set in the banquet hall of a hotel. The hotel belonged to the family of an attendee and some of the other richer attendees helped cover the costs.

That evening, by the time Lisa rushed home, Jennie had already eaten and was viewing flowers in the greenhouse. She ignored the fact that she hadn’t had dinner and went to find her in the greenhouse.

Jennie was fond of plants, mainly because they were stationary and less troublesome than animals. Occasionally, she would visit the greenhouse to look at the flowers. Some were still blooming and others were left with only green leaves, but the place was always brimming with vitality. It was a nice place to go to relax.

Jennie was sitting in a rattan chair, enjoying a cup of grapefruit tea as she read a newspaper and admired the flowers at the same time. She appeared both comfortable and casual. Lisa slowed her steps, as if afraid she would disturb the tranquility of her visage.

The usual her was very beautiful, but in an imposing, lofty, and fierce way that gave off a sense of distance.

The current her was beautiful in a gentle way, captivating her, warming her heart, and making her want to approach and silently accompany her.

Reluctant to disturb the beauty and tranquility of the scene, she stopped walking and just stood there, staring at her.

Although Jennie was still holding the newspaper in her hands, she had noticed the woman the second she arrived. When she heard her approach, she’d planned to react a little, but Lisa stopped before she could. That made her wonder, did Lisa somehow not notice her?

After a moment, when she saw that she was still motionless, she finally lifted her head, a slightly unhappy look on her face, and asked Lisa, “What are you standing there like an idiot for? Admiring the flowers?”

“Admiring you,” Lisa responded as she walked over, a deep expression in her eyes. Jennie blinked, and her eyes flashed briefly with something that seemed like… embarrassment?

So, this woman was starting to become more straightforward, huh? Looks like she would have to increase her resistance.

Jennie refused to admit that she had been embarrassed just now!

She stood up, raised her head a bit, and asked confidently, “Do I look good?”

Lisa wanted to smile. This proud and self-confident side of hers made her so beautiful that she couldn’t move her eyes away.

“You don’t even have to ask,” because the answer would always be “yes.”

Evidently satisfied with her response, a faint smile appeared in Jennie's eyes. Moving on, she asked her, “Has that matter been settled yet? What time?”

After filling her in on the time and location, she said, “Are you sure you want to go? There will be a lot of people, so it’ll be pretty chaotic.”

“It’s fine.”

Jennie just wanted to see Sunmi's face filled with jealousy. Jennie had not seen Sunmi once since her rebirth. It was about time.
