HELP! My Wife is a SPY [JENLISA X CHAESOO X MOONSUN X MINYEON]

"What are you smiling about?" Jennie asked as she arrived at the teahouse where Moonbyul was waiting for her.

Moonbyul quickly snapped out of his daze and blushed shyly. Jennie didn't know that he kept in contact with Solar, nor did she know that Solar was in Incheon, but he was too embarrassed to tell her about it.

"It's nothing. Come, sit. Let's discuss everything we know so far," Moonbyul said as he poured Jennie a cup of tea.

Jennie sat down with suspicion but did not question the man further, even though he felt a little strange.

Moonbyul then proceeded to tell Jennie everything he witnessed the day before while he was following Everett.

"Is that why you said Carol was possibly the mastermind?" Jennie asked after hearing about how Carol caught Everett cheating and the things she said to him.

Moonbyul nodded his head. "But, she did mention something about a godfather. I think she has support from someone in the gangs. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so brave as to tread into the field of money laundering."

Moonbyul then paused for a second and continued. "By the way, I spotted a familiar face at the casino this morning, but I'm not sure if he is related to this case," Moonbyul said mysteriously.

Jennie stared at the man and had a feeling she knew who he saw.

"It was Lalisa!" Moonbyul revealed.

Jennie tried to hold back a smile. Moonbyul had no idea that Lalisa was her boyfriend, nor did he know that Lalisa was actually an Interpol agent. But, she couldn't tell him either. At least, not for now. The more people that knew about Lalisa's identity, the more danger he would be in. 

So, with a surprised expression, she asked, "Really?"

"Yes, he was actually speaking to Everett Pang at one point. I wonder how they are related," Moonbyul said.

"Don't worry, I'll look into it," Jennie replied.

But, just as she said this, Moonbyul peered out the window of the teahouse and spotted a familiar figure stepping out of a hot pot restaurant across the road. 

"Speak of the devil," he said.

Jennie glanced in the direction that Moonbyul was looking and saw Lalisa with Mi-yeon. What a coincidence. Next to them, stood Everett, Carol and a bunch of mean-looking men.

"Something's definitely going on over there," Moonbyul said as he squinted his eyes to look carefully. "That's Rawson Zhang, a famous gangster from Daejeon."

Jennie looked over in surprise. She had suggested that Lalisa look into Everett and Carol as a possible link to the hit that was made on him, as well as his mother's death. But, why was he with this man called Rawson Zhang?

Jennie and Moonbyul watched as Lalisa and Mi-yeon waved goodbye to the people they were with and started crossing the road; they were headed for the teahouse that they were in. Jennie immediately fell into a panic. If Lalisa saw her with Moonbyul, she couldn't pretend not to know him. What was she to do? Lalisa didn't know that Moonbyul was her handler and Moonbyul didn't know that Lalisa was her boyfriend.

But, Lalisa needed a private space to call Minnie so he could discuss the situation with him before Rawson contacted him. So, when he saw the teahouse across the road, he immediately headed over.

He did not expect to see Jennie inside. Nor did he expect to see her with another man. Especially not a man that was so good looking. The man opposite her was dressed in a grey buttoned shirt and a pair of suit pants. Plus, his hair was neat and his build was fit.

Lalisa suddenly felt a pang of jealousy.

He glanced at Jennie questioningly but didn't know how to react. Mi-yeon also froze. They both knew that Jennie was in Incheon for a mission. So, was this man related?

At that moment, Jennie smiled and said, "Lalisa? I didn't expect to see you here. Aren't you supposed to be in Thailand?"

Lalisa immediately took the cue and played along, "My name was cleared in Thailand, so I came back to South Korea. It's nice to see you here."

"Oh, that's great. I'm working here now," Jennie said. "This is my colleague, Moonbyul."

Lalisa looked at Moonbyul. Working? Colleague? Was Jennie hinting that this man was also an SPU agent? 

Lalisa quickly shook the man's hand, but couldn't resist gripping it tightly. 

Jennie sensed some jealousy coming from Lalisa, so she quickly tried to clear the air.

"Oh, there's an empty spot over there. You should grab it before someone else does. We'll see you around," she said as she pointed to an empty table.

Lalisa glanced over and unwillingly took the hint. This woman had a lot of explaining to do.

So, after he sat down, he glanced at Jennie and gestured for her to meet him at the bathroom.

A short moment later, Jennie excused herself and Lalisa quickly followed.

But, as soon as they turned the corner, Lalisa wrapped his arm around Jennie's waist and pulled her into a toilet cubicle with him.
