V had seen her like this before and asked awkwardly, "Why are you so tired today? Didn't the press conference go well?"

Everything was arranged perfectly by a certain someone...

"It's all your fault! I'm tired mentally!" Jennie was annoyed and quickly rolled up to look at him with a burning stare. "Let me ask you something, that day... that day Lisa... really... kissed me?"

V tossed back a drink. "If I lied, I'll burn all my equipment and never play PC games ever again!"

Jennie nodded. "Ok, I trust you now." Such a deadly oath for him to make.

V tried not to scream. "You freaking tell me, how many times did I remind you! You never listened! Why haven't you died from stupidity! How long have we known each other and how long have you known Lisa? Why don't you trust me?"

Looking at V's sad little face, Jennie sighed. "In fact, when I first met Lisa, he said it."

"Said what?" V got nervous.

Jennie gestured with her palms. "Said he would marry me."

"Pff... cough, cough, cough... what did you say?" V almost choked to death on his drink and coughed severely.

Jennie patted his back hard. "I was more shocked than you are right now."

"Then?" V asked in a rush.

"Then I asked why! It was totally unscientific!"

"What did he say?"

"He said that I saved Leo and that he wanted to repay me by giving himself to me!"

"WTF! Then what did you say?"

"I said that I saved Leo and then Leo saved me back, so let's call it even, no need to repay me with anything, and then I ran away!"

V quickly stood up and paced in circles crazily around the room. "I freaking want to strangle you. Lisa wanted to take advantages from you from the beginning and even said it out straight, so why didn't you keep your distance?"

Jennie raised her eyebrows. "Come on, how can anyone reject anything in front of Leo's innocent face? Plus, I always thought that Lisa only said he wanted to marry me for Leo's sake. I rejected him later and he didn't force me anymore, so what else could I do?"

"Why would it be for Leo's sake? That's so fake! And you, you're such a pig!" V finally stopped walking in circles, looked at her, and said, "Let me put it this way, normally, in a hero-saves-beauty situation like this, if the beauty is not interested in the hero, she would say, 'thank you for helping me, I will work for you like a cow or a horse to repay you!' So here's the question, what if the beauty IS interested in the hero, what would she say? Jennie, please answer!"

"Hmm..." Jennie touched her jaw. "The beauty would say, 'I will repay you with myself'?"

"So, now you understand the meaning of 'repay you with myself'?! It means 'I freaking like you, I'm keen and interested'!"V impatiently shouted next to her ear.

Jennie picked her ears, which had gone numb from his loud screaming. "Sounds reasonable..."

V said, "This is the freaking truth!"

Jennie stood up and dusted off her butt, then grabbed V's shoulder, calmed him down, made him sit on the sofa, and said slowly, "Ok, since you asked me, let me also ask you something!"

V looked at her cautiously. "What do you want to ask?"

"I want to ask you, if you walked into a room and saw the person you like was drugged, wearing a transparent night gown, and lying on a king sized bed covered with rose petals, what would you do?"
