Presumptuous | Jenlisa Adaptation SLOW UD

Chapter 22

Jisoo thought that once she said these words, Jennie would easily become distracted.

Even if Jennie knew she was doing it on purpose, she would still let herself be fooled. Lisa was her weak spot.
　　
Unexpectedly, Jennie shook her head instead. "Another time."

　　
Jisoo was surprised.
　　
Jennie leaned back in the seat with her eyelids drooping and said indifferently, "I have been too indulgent recently." So much for that.
　　
Jisoo understood—don't talk about Lisa around her.

But anyone who conceals how they truly feel will eventually reveal themself. 

Jennie could hide how she felt well in front of Lisa, as well as in front of people like Jisoo who was with her almost all the time.

But, there was no need, since Jisoo was the one who handled all of her affairs.
　　
The human heart is soft and tender, and whether you like it or not, there will be pity and intolerance that follow.
　　
Jennie had been in the Entertainment circle for many years and ended up becoming friends with Principal Sun of the Capital Academy of Drama. 

Early on in her career, Principal Sun collaborated with her on a movie. 

After that, he pushed Jennie to attend graduation ceremonies every year to open the eyes of the graduating class.

In truth, he was suggesting that mostly as a joke.
　　
Aside from movie promotions, Jennie seldom appeared in the public eye, let alone attended any graduation ceremony for undergraduates in an acting school.

She never went and studied at university herself—considering her as an honorary alumna was a stretch.
　　
After talking with her this time, Principal Sun at the end of the conversation asked her again, "Hey, the kids at my school are going to graduate again. Would you like to come over and give a speech?"
　　
Jennie was about to refuse, but Lisa's dim eyes at the awards ceremony flashed in front of her eyes, and she couldn't say no.
　　
She was silent for a while, smiling modestly, and said, "Okay."
　　
Principal Sun almost dropped his phone, and immediately went to see if the sun came out from the west today.
　　
He kept asking to be sure.
　　
Jennie made up an excuse. "I plan on making a movie. I will be the producer and want to come to your school to find low-cost talent."
　　
President Sun happily said, "You're always welcome. Then would you mind personally giving the degree certificate to our outstanding graduate representative?"
　　
Jennie hummed.
　　
She's going to give a speech during the ceremony, but she's also going to be awarding a degree certificate herself. It doesn't make a big difference to her.

As for who the graduate representative will be, she didn't really think much about it. She just doesn't want to miss the most important moment in Lisa's life.
　　
Perhaps, her appearance will make her feel a little bit better since Lisa seemed to be in a bad mood recently.
　　
But she can only do this, by promoting her personal interests under the guise of a public appearance, and she can't be honest about going to the graduation ceremony because of her. 

This decision alone was enough to make Jennie feel anxious.

I focused so much on Lisa to the point that I needed to calm my overwhelmed mind for a month before the graduation ceremony.

If this continues, what  else can I do?
　　
If you can't restrain yourself, you will be presumptuous. Jennie advice herself.
　
Jisoo glanced at Jennie's face: her eyes were flashing, her lips were pressed slightly, and her fingertips on the pillow beside her slowly tightened.

Finally, she made a decision and exhaled, turning towards the window to look out of it.
