"So what?" Tzuyu harrumphed coldly. "As long as it's someone who has treated Jennie poorly, I don't care whose mother-in-law she is, I can't have any appreciation for her."
Wu Jiatong reminded her severely. "You... if these words reach CEO Manoban, your life might end soon!"
Lilan gave Wu Jiatong a kind smile. "Child, there's no need to harm the relationship over your roommates because of me."
Wu Jiatong immediately flattered her. "Auntie, you're so kind. You're really graceful."
Lilan then addressed Tzuyu. "Little lady, you might have some misunderstandings about me. The reason I didn't visit Jenjen previously is because I was too busy with work. Ever since Jennie's father collapsed, the entire Kim family has been relying on me..."
"Didn't you beg for more than a billion dollars from Lisa?" Tzuyu was unmoved by her pitiful act.
This was because after she became Jennie's friend yesterday, she came to learn a lot about their Kim family from her.
This old woman, in all likelihood, wasn't even Jennie's birth mother.
Beg...
When Lilan heard this word, she nearly exploded with anger.
She upheld some reputation in the business world. To think that an immature, useless young girl would dare use such a word to describe her!
She resisted the urge to lose her temper and asked Jennie softly. "She is..."
"She's my friend, Chou Tzuyu."
"So you're Jenjen's friend." Lilan immediately put on a benevolent smile. "Our Jenjen don't have many friends. Tzuyu ah, in the future, I'll have to trouble you to take care of our Jenjen more."
Tzuyu found her smile extremely fake. "There's no need for you to tell me that."
Lilan brought a silver bank card out of her pocket and handed it to Jennie. "Jenjen, there are fifteen thousand dollars in this card. Mom didn't do very well in the past. I'll do my best to make it up to you right now."
"Wow, fifteen thousand dollars!" Wu Jiatong was both envious and astonished.
She then shot Tzuyu a cold look. "Can you still say that she doesn't treat jennie well? Look, she easily gave her fifteen thousand dollars."
Before Tzuyu could respond, Jennie smiled coldly. "Director Kim, keep your hypocrisies away. Back then, you 'begged' for more than billion dollars from Lisa but did not offer a single cent to me. You've never contributed anything to my school fees and living expenses. Now that Lisa has taken his money back, do you think you can trick me with that small generosity and use me as an excuse to keep taking money from the Manoban family?"
"Jennie, why do your words sound so strange?" Wu Jiatong was confused. "Lisa is Krystal's fiancé. If your mom wishes to get financial support from the Manoban family, she should be depending on Krystal's name. Why would she depend on yours?"
"Mom! Why are you here? Don't you know that third sister..." Krystal suddenly appeared by their dorm room entrance. "Please hurry and leave."
In a moment of carelessness, Lilan had drawn suspicion onto Krystal's status as Lisa's fiancée. She began to feel nervous. "But..."
"Leave everything else to me. Please go ahead and return to your work." Since Krystal said so, Lilan took the bank card and hurried off.
Krystal immediately tugged Wu Jiatong to the adjacent room, room 202.
God knows what Krystal told her. When Wu Jiatong returned, the way she looked at Jennie had changed. Her gaze was filled with disdain. "It turns out that you're someone like that!"
Jennie found her behaviour to be ridiculous. "Someone like what?"
"Tsk." Wu Jiatong could not be bothered to respond to her.
She was only a cheap woman who dreamt of seducing her future brother-in-law.
