Chapter 192: Jennie's Past

After receiving the ice cream, Jennie was extremely happy. She was extremely cooperative with Lisa's various motherly mutterings. She kept nodding and saying yes. Of course, these words basically went in one ear and out the other.

After eating the ice cream, she followed Lisa's instructions and went to the bathroom to brush her teeth again. After that, Jennie sat by the bed and apologized, just like how a child would apologize to her parents. She lowered her voice and confessed, "I shouldn't have hidden the matter about me working at the National Security Bureau from you. I admit my mistake."

Lisa actually felt very guilty when he saw Jennie like this. After all, he had hidden a lot of things from his wife. There were too many aspects involved. It was a long story, but most of them were national military secrets. He didn't want to implicate the lass and let her accompany him in danger.

"If you want to tell me, I'll listen. If you don't want to tell me, I won't ask." Lisa sat cross-legged on the bed and grabbed Jennie's shoulders with both hands. He said firmly, "I marry you because I love you. It has nothing to do with your status. It's only because you're you."

As expected, Jennie blushed when she heard this. She lowered her head shyly and thought to herself,?President Manoban usually looks unapproachable. Who would have thought that he would say such sweet words?

After the two of them maintained this posture for about a minute, Jennie wrapped her arms around Lisa's neck and smiled sweetly. She said gently, "Then I want to tell you something about the past."

Lisa didn't say anything and leaned forward. Then, a kiss landed on Jennie's forehead.

Jennie laid in Lisa's arms and recounted the past.

"I don't know what I looked like when I was born. My initial memory was the river in the countryside. It was a hot summer afternoon. I didn't like to take a nap, so I secretly ran to the river to play. It was cold and comfortable. Now that I think about it, the worry I had at that time was that Mom and Dad didn't give me pocket money at night and I couldn't buy popsicles the next day."

At this point, Jennie smiled. She really missed the old days. "After that, there was a person lying on my doorstep, covered in blood. My parents were doctors. They carried him in and took care of him for many days before they saved his life. You knew this person before. He was my master. Then, he said that I had a high IQ and talent, so he brought me to the National Security Bureau. My long training life began."

Training life was always tough. Every time Jennie thought about it, her eyes would turn red. "When I was twelve years old, I went on my first mission. At that time, my palms were covered in layers of cold sweat. I can still feel the nervousness at that time even when I close my eyes now. I also remember that when I first killed someone, my heart was about to jump out. When he fell to the ground, I couldn't help but keep checking if he was still breathing. Later on, I slowly got used to it. For the country, it's my responsibility to punish evildoers."

Jennie rambled on for a long time about her ideals and hardships back then.

"Then why did you retire? I remember that your National Security Bureau doesn't have an age for retirement," Lisa asked curiously. However, when he saw the hesitation on Jennie's face, he changed the topic and said, "I was just asking casually. If you don't want to tell me, you don't have to."

......

Lisa was an insider. How could he not understand that in this line of work, everyone has indescribable difficulties? This question might remind her of many unpleasant things judging from her expression.

"There's nothing I can't say. It's my parents. A week before they died, they suddenly called me one day and said that they didn't want me to continue doing this dangerous job. They also said that their greatest wish was for me to be safe and healthy for the rest of my life and live the simplest and most ordinary life. I was very hesitant at first, but then they... left. I followed their wishes and retired from the National Security Bureau."

This was probably the path Jennie had walked for the past twenty years. Although there was still a lot which was hidden, it was roughly like this.

Lisa had long known that this lass was not simple, but he did not expect her life to be so difficult. At this moment, pity for her surged into his heart. He opened his mouth a few times, but he did not know how to comfort her.

"It's fine. It's all in the past." Jennie shrugged and stretched in Lisa's arms. "I only hope that I can fulfill my parents' wishes in the future and really live the simplest and most ordinary life."
