It was only after Jennie had returned that V could finally relax, "Why did you take so long? I almost thought you fell into the toilet bowl!"

"Something worse happened; I fell into a wolves' den!" Jennie leaned back against the sofa, her face still containing traces of lingering fear.

"What do you mean?" V's brows drew together.

"I walked into the wrong room. That room was full of the big shots of this city, and there was even this wretched fatty who forcefully held onto me and refused to let me go. He even made me accompany him in drinking!"

"What did you say?" V's expression immediately changed. He looked her up and down with anxiety, "Then how did you get back here?"

Jennie hummed, "That's because I had good luck; I ran into the boss of the big shots!"

Hearing this, V's expression darkened, "Don't tell me it was Lisa?"

Jennie snapped her fingers, "Bingo! That's right! Big Boss was too cool! He appeared right in the nick of time to save me from the fire and he even escorted me back to the right room himself!"

V: "..." Wasn't Lisa supposed to have high IQ and low EQ? Was this smooth man really the same Lisa that he knew?

After the dinner ended, everyone said their goodbyes one by one.

"Jennie, how are you going home? Do you want me to send you?"

"Thank you, V! There's no need, I have a friend nearby, my friend will send me home."

"Then I'm leaving first!"

"Okay, be careful on the road!"

"V, how about you? How are you leaving?" Guo Qisheng asked.

"I'm waiting for my manager."

"Alright, then see you all tomorrow. If the weather permits, we'll continue filming today's scene. Wasn't it strange that it rained and hailed today?" Guo Qisheng mumbled gloomily.

As the crew left one by one, only Jennie and V remained at the entrance.

Bored and drunk, Jennie was close to her limits. She was leaning against the golden pillar at her back with half-lowered eyes, looking like a dead dog.

V cast a sideways glance at her, "My manager will be arriving soon. Don't bother waiting for your friend, just go back with me! Wait a minute, don't tell me the one you're waiting for is..."

Before he could finish his words, a man dressed in a suit walked out from the hotel lobby. Under the moonlight, his steady footsteps carried him to Jennie, who was currently dozing off. His voice sounded like the breeze on a summer night, "Jennie."

Jennie blurrily opened her eyes, "Lisa..."

The man before her had already become her safe harbour. The moment his figure appeared in her sights, she collapsed to the side as she let go of her last bit of consciousness...

Seeing the situation, V was shocked; before he could reach out to support her, someone else had already gotten there first. The girl collapsed safely into his arms.

Lisa tidied the girl's messy hair with a warm gaze, before his other arm reached under her knees and he picked her up with ease.

At the same time, a black Maybach had already stopped by the entrance silently; the driver speedily alighted and held the car door open.

Seeing that Lisa was treating him as if he didn't exist and was about to carry Jennie into the car, V finally couldn't hold back his impulse any longer. He quickly switched on the sound recording function on his phone before shouting from behind them, "Uncle!"

Lisa's footsteps paused. He only turned the slightest back and questioned him with his gaze, as if he was asking whether something was the matter.

V gritted his teeth. Did he even have to ask what the problem was? Could he not show such a matter-of-fact expression?

"What intentions do you have towards Jennie!" V stared directly at him and spoke straightforwardly.

Hearing this, Lisa lowered his gaze to look at the girl sleeping peacefully in his arms, "Towards Jennie..."

"Yes! Don't you think your attitude towards Jennie is strange? Isn't it too ambiguous?" V resisted the strong pressure from the man and continued speaking. At the same time, he gripped the phone in his hands tightly, waiting anxiously for the man's reply.

Lisa looked at the young man before him with an indifferent gaze, "I believe I've made my intentions clear enough. If you still don't understand..."

In the next second, V's pupils abruptly contracted!

The man in front of him didn't speak, but lowered his head and lightly touched the girl's lips with his own instead.

After three seconds, the man withdrew with an expression of utmost yearning and affection. Before he left, his cold gaze shot towards the dumbstruck young man behind him, "Is it clear now?"
