When the car reached an exit in the highway, it swerved into a small lane that went in a different direction, towards the east of Zhong Hai, a new industrial area.
After he arrived at a section of the industrial area that was abandoned in the middle of construction, Lisa slowed down the car, and parked it on the soil ground by the side of the road. He took out a cigarette and quietly lit it up while leaning against the car, looking towards the oncoming car.
Not too far away, a black Honda Accord silently stopped, and a short while later, 4 men in boorish clothing got off. The 4 men were of different physiques, looks and temperament, but all of them looked maliciously at Lisa; there was even some ruthlessness in their eyes.
"How did you discover us?" A tan-skinned man wearing a floral shirt asked.
"A man's sixth sense." Lisa grinned.
The floral shirt man wrinkled his eyebrows, and bewilderedly questioned, "Since you noticed that you were being followed, why did you bring us here? Did you think that we would stop following you if you changed routes?"
Lisa breathed in a few breaths of smoke. He had some money, but the tobacco he smoked was still cheap and spicy. After blowing a few smoke rings in relish, Lisa grinned and said, "I didn't ask for you guys to follow me, all I did was choose a venue that was suitable for you guys to disembark."
"What do you mean?" The floral shirt man had difficulty understanding the current situation. All they did was follow instructions to investigate this man's social status and background, and then figure out the next course of action. However, this scenario presented to him left him with no choice but to reconsider what their next step should be.
Lisa's eyes formed two lines as he squinted, and with a weird smile he said, "Fellow brothers, haven't you realized that in this area... there aren't any security cameras.......?"
As this was an area that was still open for development, the industrial area they were in had its work progress halted, causing its infrastructure to seem exceedingly chaotic and dilapidated. Even the road wasn't completely laid out, and there were simply no other cars to be seen.
"Cameras?" The floral shirt man maliciously smiled, "I should be the one warning you, in a place without cameras, we don't need to hold back when taking action."
"What if it's the exact opposite?" Lisa shrugged his shoulders.
"Big bro, this brat wants to fight. It seems like he's stupid." One subordinate laughed while stating.
The floral shirt man's face showed that he was displeased as he said, "Youngster, you can talk big, but don't force us brothers to take you down. Although we haven't received the order to get rid of you, we can still act first and report later."
"You guys are really annoying." Lisa beamed as he said, "If you want to make your move, hurry up. I'm in a rush to go home for dinner."
"Stinking brat, you're tired of living!"
A man with a groomed beard walked over without saying another word, and the other three no longer said anything either. They charged forward to encircle Lisa.
"Let me tell you this, bullshitting won't work, the one with the mightier fist is reason!" The bearded man spat out a mouthful of saliva, formed a fist, and threw it at Lisa's face like a pouncing tiger!
Lisa easily dodged the fist, and at the same time that he dodged, his lips formed a chilly smile, "When I returned to this country I inwardly resolved myself. If others do not provoke me, do not threaten me, or take the initiative to attack me, then I won't take the initiative to beat them up. So now I'm very thankful to that punch of yours, for it allows me to have no qualms about slaughtering you guys."
"Everyone attacks together!" The floral shirt man was in an unprecedented fury; he truly couldn't tolerate a youngster like this who held the four of them in such contempt.
But the four's coordinated attack seemed futile. Lisa casually executed some mixed martial arts moves, utilizing lightning speed and tyrannical strength. He caused the four men to have either broken fingers and arms or have their palms ruthlessly hit to form large bruises.
In a flash, the chaotic fight between the five turned into a scene of Lisa toying with them.
"He's too tough, we can't beat him!" The bearded man who made the first move shouted while covering his swollen face.
The floral shirt man also noticed how abnormal the situation was. Although he felt undesigned in his heart, he still recognized the fact that the four of them simply weren't on the same level of strength as the man in front of their eyes.
"Run to the car!"
Under the floral shirt man's order, the four of them hurriedly ran to the Honda Accord.
Lisa didn't obstruct them, and with a smile that wasn't a smile he watched the four lock the car and raise the windows as soon as they got in. They started up the car, and urgently turned the car around to escape.
When the Honda Accord was about to get away, Lisa stooped down and picked up a pebble that was the size of an egg, weighing it in his hand......
In the car, the floral shirt man and his subordinates breathed a sigh of relief after the car started. Although they couldn't beat him down, they were at least able to get away. Furthermore, no matter how well this youngster could fight, he couldn't possibly catch up to a car! When they reported this to the higher ups and returned with a huge entourage of their brothers, wouldn't they be able to take revenge for this defeat!?
However, there's always a difference between dreams and reality......
After Lisa picked up the stone, he immediately got into a pitching stance and closed one eye to take aim. He stretched his arm and leaned back, then his waist abruptly shot forward!
His right hand flung the stone that he was holding!
The stone was like a miniature artillery shell, tearing through the air with a sonic boom!
*Bam!!!*
With a speed that was impossible to see with the human eye, the stone smashed its way into the petrol tank from the side......
*Rumble!!!.... *
The black Honda Accord that was still moving caught fire in a moment like ignited dynamite; the raging flames soared towards the sky enveloping the entire car in high temperatures. The flames sent it charging towards a lamp post on the side of the road!
In a blink of an eye, the Honda Accord that was perfectly fine a moment ago turned into a flaming piece of coal.
Lisa looked at the 'death case of four men' he caused like he was looking at a piece of art. The reason he waited for the four to get in the car before disposing of their lives in this manner was mainly because he was afraid that the police might discover some clues.
In addition, killing these people, right when they had relaxed the most gave Lisa utmost satisfaction in his heart; this could also be considered a mental disease that he had developed over the years. It was a pity that Lisa never thought of treating this cruel shortcoming of his.
"When you leave the womb in your next life, remember to buy a German car, Japanese cars are too fragile." Lisa had a deep smile, returned to his car, and continued his way back home.
Along the way, Lisa pondered over who would act against him. First, this person was not very familiar with him, otherwise they wouldn't have dispatched people to follow him, to investigate where he lived and his interpersonal relationships.
After thinking for a while, v was still unable to figure out who it was and could only sigh. With an expressionless face, he thought out loud, "It's okay to find trouble with me, but if they implicate the people by my side...... They must die......"
Chapter 78-2: First time in life
After having a sumptuous meal in the villa that evening, Jun Ji Hyun once again brought a bag of fashion magazines. She smiled to Lisa and said, "Young Master, these are magazines that Miss has subscribed to. They arrived today so please bring these to Miss in my stead later."
Lisa was watching the news on the television. When he heard this, he happily received the bag. "This is how it should be; Jun Ji Hyun only needs to provide us with delicious meals; miscellaneous tasks like this should be dealt with by us men."
"No no." Jun Ji Hyun immediately replied: "Young Master cannot say this. My main goal is for Young Master to see Miss more often. This way Miss will think about how good Young Master is, and in the future the two of you can be more intimate."
Lisa forced a smile and said, "Jun Ji Hyun, for you to tenaciously push Jennie into my embrace like this, do you trust me that much?
Jun Ji Hyun unflinchingly replied, "Young Master, I've watched Miss grow up. In this lifetime I've never been able to bear and raise my own children. I feel embarrassed to say this, but Miss is like half a daughter to me. After Old Mistress and Mistress passed away, I've always hoped for Miss to have a proper home. Miss has always been this pretty since childhood, and the men who are smitten with her are all over Zhong Hai, but those people are too hypocritical."
As she said that, Jun Ji Hyun looked at Lisa with a pleased smile, "Young Master isn't like them. I may be old, but my judgement remains as clear as ever. Young Master, although you have never said it out loud, I know that you truly care for Miss. On the day Miss fainted, I could see from your eyes that you care about Miss a lot. But like Miss, you're just not used to expressing yourself. Sometimes, you youngsters worry about your own dignity a little too much, but the importance of dignity can't compare with affection."
Lisa remained silent for some time before he spoke with a dull smile, "Jun Ji Hyun, you can become an expert in psychology. Your words made me doubt whether I am really who I am."
"Don't overthink things, Young Master. Just think of it as this old woman speaking drivel. It's better for you to hurry on and send the magazines to Miss, if we dally any longer, Miss might go to sleep."
Lisa picked up the bag of magazines and glanced through them — they were mostly fashion and internationally renowned brands' introduction of their seasonal luxury goods. It can be inferred that as a fashion company's CEO, Jennie herself must personally understand these products.
Very soon, he left Dragon Garden and headed towards the hospital. As he drove along a street bustling with various businesses, Lisa glanced at a shop with its lights turned on from the corner of his eyes and couldn't help but reveal a knowing smile.
When he arrived at this hospital, it was nearly 10 in the evening. Most of the wards already had their lights switched off, but Jennie's ward remained brightly lit.
Lisa dexterously opened the door. While looking inside, he realized that Jennie wasn't alone in the ward.
The visitor was Jennie's secretary, who was also known as the one with an airport runway (flat-chested) figure, Ningning. It was unknown whether this person was originally ice-cold, or if she had learned from Jennie how to be exceedingly cold to the point of being boring.
Jennie was lying on the bed. On the table in front of her, there was a pile of documents. She held a silver fountain pen in her hand and was writing something down, while Ningning stood beside her, wearing an earnest expression. From time to time, she tidied up the papers and handed over more documents.
After seeing Lisa enter, Ningning wrinkled her brows, "What did you come here for?"
Lisa lifted the bag of magazines in his hand, "I'm here to deliver these magazines."
"Why are you the one to deliver them? Who do you think you are to the CEO?" Ningning discontentedly reprimanded.
Lisa thought for a moment. In any case, she's considered Jennie's trusted aide. It wouldn't be a big deal to reveal it to her. But before Lisa managed to say anything, Jennie indifferently interrupted with a sentence.
"He's my distant relative." With that said, Jennie faintly hinted at him with her eyes, signaling Lisa not to say anything superfluous.
A legal husband turned into an insignificant 'distant relative'. Lisa rubbed his nose, and his lips revealed a slightly pained smile. He initially thought that the two's relationship had become rather intimate these days, but it seemed that currently, in Jennie's eyes, he was still merely a contracted acting companion. She did not truly accept him as someone close to her, and never had the thought of recognizing him as her husband.
He was slightly disappointed, but luckily, he had a strong mentality and was prepared for such an outcome. He wasn't so naive as to believe that the ice lady would be this easy to conquer. Lisa casually smiled and didn't say anything more. He placed the paper bag on Jennie's bedside cabinet and said, "Jun Ji Hyun asked me to deliver these; she said that these are your subscribed magazines for this month."
Ningning showed an expression of sudden understanding. She assumed that this man who is famous in the company for being an odd jobs person had depended on the title of 'distant relative' to enter the company. She looked at Lisa with even more disdain than before, and spoke with a little hostility, "If there's nothing else then drop the things and leave. Don't disturb the CEO as she works."
Lisa initially wanted to persuade Jennie not to wear herself out at night, but after seeing her focus all her attention on the documents without any intention of talking to him, he didn't court a rebuff.
"Then I shall leave now." Although he was rather dissatisfied with Ningning when all was said and done, she was still Jennie's secretary. It wasn't a good idea to flare-up, so Lisa held in his anger and ignored her.
Only when Lisa turned to leave did Jennie slightly raise her head. Her clear eyes gazed at Lisa's back. His usually unruly and carefree back looked a little depressed and lonely under the lights. Lisa couldn't help feeling regretful inside, she had not even said a word of thanks to him, but her shy temperament had left her simply unaware of how to speak up.
As the door closed, Jennie released an unperceivable sigh and continued to deal with the documents.
Approximately an hour later, it was very late at night. Ningning looked at her watch, and hesitantly said, "Boss, let's stop here for today, I'll bring the documents back, tidy them up and pass them to Department Head Jisoo tomorrow. The important ones have already been dealt with; you should rest now."
Jennie rubbed her temples. These days she'd been taking Chinese medicine, recuperating, and had to receive those people who came to visit. It was late at night, and fact was she was honestly rather tired, so she nodded and said, "Tell Department Head Jisoo that I'll personally handle the autumn fashion conference documents and the project for breaking into the Japanese market, while she deals with everything else."
"Understood, Boss."
Ningning worked extremely fast, in less than 5 minutes, all the documents were tidied up. She respectfully bid Jennie goodbye and left.
Jennie relaxed her whole body, inhaled deeply, and leaned against the soft pillow. Her eyes glanced at the big bag of magazines Lisa had brought. With some thought, she brought the bag over, intending to look at the magazines before sleeping.
The moment she opened the bag, she suddenly smelled a familiar scent of glutinous rice pouring out of the bag. Jennie was stunned and took a careful look inside. She discovered that other than the magazines which numbered more than a dozen, there were glutinous rice balls packed in a transparent plastic container!
Slowly taking the container out, Jennie looked at the 10 round balls of doughy things inside. There were white ones, black ones, green ones, and various other colors. It was also still warm with a little steam at the top.
Jennie naturally knew that these weren't given to her by Jun Ji Hyun, because when she was young, she had hurt her stomach from eating too many glutinous rice balls. From then on, Jun Ji Hyun never allowed her to eat glutinous rice balls again. Therefore, these could only be bought for her by that person......
Is it because the last time Irene visited, she mentioned that I love eating glutinous rice balls?
Just from that casual conversation, he remembered my favorite food.
Recalling the words she had said to Lisa earlier, and how coldly she had treated him as if he was a total stranger, along with the view of Lisa's back when he left......
Jennie was completely unaware that her eyes had begun to turn moist.
For the first time in her life, while looking at her favorite glutinous rice balls, Jennie didn't have any appetite.
