She carefully moved off the bed to see what had happened since little bun was sleeping very soundly.
She saw Lisa pouring some water to drink after pushing open the bedroom door. One hand was covering his stomach and his face looked pale.
Jennie hurriedly went over, "Mister Manoban, are you ok?"
"Nothing big."
"Hmm, does your stomach hurt?"
Lisa didn't reply.
Jennie knew that she had guessed right.
Lisa actually couldn't eat spicy things. Yet why would he attempt to eat anyways?
"Wait a bit, I'll get you some stomach medicine."
Fortunately, she had the most common medicines at home.
Jennie hurriedly brought over the stomach medicine, "You have to eat both pills."
"Thank you." Lisa took the pills from her palm. His slightly cold fingers grazing lightly on her palm felt as if they were grazing the tip of her heart. It suddenly made her feel weak.
In the still quiet of the windy and stormy night, it was too easy to lose control with this kind of beauty in front of her!
Jennie silently chanted the digits of Pi until she could calm her heart down.
Looking at Lisa eating the medicine, she accompanied him for a while since it wasn't polite to leave immediately.
"Are you a little better now? Do you need to go to the hospital? I'm sorry, I didn't know you couldn't eat spicy foods......"
Originally she was worried about little bun. In the end nothing happened to little bun, but something happened to Lisa instead! What would this be called......
"Not your fault, it's just an old problem."
Lisa suddenly opened his mouth after the two were silent for a bit: "The reason for intruding on your hospitality tonight was because Leo wanted to see you."
Jennie wasn't sure if he'd made a slip of the tongue, "Leo wanted to see me?"
"Leo had suffered a big fright in the warehouse. He's very reliant on you now since you saved him." Lisa explained.
Jennie found that as long as Little Leo was nearby, or if someone brought up questions regarding Leo, the piercing cold atmosphere around Lisa would weaken a lot. He wasn't as scary as was earlier during daytime.
"So it was like this......"Jennie nodded her head.
This kind of night was easy to cause people to let down their defenses and reservations. Jennie asked a question that had been bothering her for a while, "Umm, taking the liberty to ask. Does Leo not know how to speak?"
Even up until today, she had never heard Leo utter a single word. The little fellow would only nod or shake his head.
"More so than not knowing how to talk, he doesn't want to talk." Lisa answered.
"Then it's a problem of the heart?" Jennie frowned.
"Leo is a bit closed off. He tends to shut himself away." Lisa didn't hide anything.
"It's like this......"It was pretty much what she had guessed.
As to why Little Leo would shut himself away, this kind of rich family's secret, she naturally would not dare to ask about more deeply.
"Miss Kim." Lisa suddenly focused his gaze on her. Those eyes were bright, cold and calm. Yet it gave her a feeling of being so fiery that it would burn a body into ashes.
"Yes?" Jennie gave a slight start at the gaze.
"Have we met somewhere before?" Lisa asked.
If these words were spoken by someone else, Jennie would definitely think the other side was trying to strike up a conversation. Using an obsolete/old way at that too. But the person speaking was Lisa Manoban, the bewilderment in his eyes were real.
"We probably haven't. Even if I had seen Mr. Manoban before, there's no way I wouldn't have an impression...but is there some problem?" Jennie's tone was still considered firm. With her status, she couldn't have met a person at Lisa Manoban's level. That would be the case even when she was still the Kim family's young miss.
"Nothing." Lisa shifted his gaze, his eyes reflecting the deep color of the night outside the window. He seemed a bit lonely.
The atmosphere seemed to be going a little bad as they continued to interact like this!
"Mister Manoban, if you don't have anything else, then I'll go to sleep first?" Jennie carefully said.
It seemed as if Lisa had seen through her. He raised his hand, "No hurries, sit."
Not in a hurry?! She was in a very big hurry, ok!
