V's interrogation made Jennie frown uncomfortably, "So what if I am?"
V walked one round in irritation before staring straight at her, "Jennie, are you giving up on life? You even dare to play around with Lisa, aren't you afraid that you'll get burnt playing with fire?"
"I'm happy to play with fire, what's it to you?" Jennie wasn't happy about V's tone, so her attitude wasn't all too good either.
"You..." V was about to storm off, but he finally threw a punch on the pillar behind her, "Jennie, I'm not trying to alarm you, but I'm just trying to give you a friendly reminder. Otherwise, you won't even know how you died when the time comes! Don't you know who Lisa Manoban is? Did you think he's the same as those rich boys you dated in the past?"
Jennie rolled her eyes at him, "Do you think I'm an idiot? Of course I do!"
"Even knowing that, you're..."
"So what? What's it to you if you see me sleeping with the Lisa Manoban?"
"You..." V slowly calmed down. Actually, he knew in his heart that Jennie wasn't so silly as to do something like that, so he suppressed his rage, took a deep breath and said, "Then tell me, what's going on with all this?"
Jennie also felt that it was too childish to continue bickering with V, but it was because of this guy's appearance that had agitated her today. She was rather hot-tempered now, any little thing could set her off.
Thus, she calmed down and explained, "I saved Little Leo previously."
V's expression showed a little surprise, "You saved Little Leo? What happened to him?"
"Half a month ago, Jisoo brought Leo to a bar. In order to escape the noisy crowd, he accidentally hid inside a storeroom and got locked in unknowingly by one of the employees..."
V's mouth twitched, "Bringing Leo to a bar? That does sound like something my irresponsible second uncle would do. And then? What does this have to do with you?"
"I was preparing to come to audition for Land Under Heaven but for the sake of preventing me from going to the audition, Chang Li locked me up in that storeroom..." Jennie explained what happened simply.
V listened patiently to the end, "Alright, I understand now. You met Lisa because you saved Leo. Then the next step should be the Manoban family giving you a sum of money as thanks, then GAME OVER, each of you should have gone your separate ways! Why are you still keeping contact with Lisa? You're even staying at his house!"
Jennie omitted the part where Lisa had proposed marriage as a reward, "Because Leo suffered a shock, and I saved him, he's very reliant on me. Thus Lisa requested that I stay at the Manoban residence until Leo's frame of mind stabilises. I'm there to act as Leo's sedative at any time, do you understand now?"
After hearing that bit, V's furious expression had slowly dissipated. However, he still had some complaints. He grumbled, "Are you sure that's all? So many women want to marry into the Manoban family, and you're now the closest one to that goal. Don't you have any thoughts of overstepping your boundaries with him?"
Jennie raised her brows and said calmly, "If we're talking about overstepping boundaries, then I do have thoughts like that towards Little Leo. He's simply too cute, I really want to kidnap him and take him home to be my little sweetheart!"
V glanced at her speechlessly, before holding his forehead and saying, "Anyway, you had best not have any improper thoughts, the rich and powerful families aren't like what you imagine!"
Jennie sneered, "And you know what the rich and powerful families in my imagination are like?"
She hated the upper class the most, they were all pretending to be polite, each wearing a fake mask...
It hadn't been easy to leave the Kim family, so how could she possibly jump back into the fire?
