What haunted villa?" Lang questioned in a blur daze.

"The one where First Senior Brother and the rest live!"

Lang yawned lazily. "Why're you going there for? Aren't you scared of ghosts?"

"I need to look for someone."

Lang was even more speechless. "Look for someone? Who is it?"

"Annie."

After the long moment of silence from the other end of the phone, Lang continued, "Does your Lisa Manoban know you're asking me to accompany you to look for women?"

"I have some serious business that needs Annie's expertise. She's been grounded by Satan and can't come out now. Make your way over now. We'll immediately meet there," Jennie spoke quickly.

"I'm not going! What if I bump into Yeon, that pervert?" Lang groaned, determined not to fall into such a situation.

"Nonsense! Obviously, I need you as a back up if I've to go against First Senior Brother!" She could settle the rest of them herself.

"Hey! Where's your humanity!?"

Jennie instantly ground her teeth viciously. "How dare you talk to me about humanity? Do you want me to punch you?! You should really count how much money you owe me since you've returned to the country! What's your measly salary doing?! The last time after we hung out, didn't I pay for the bill!? Even if you prostitute yourself to me, it wouldn't be enough to repay your debts! Besides, this is your rightful duty as a bodyguard, okay?"

Lang immediately refuted, unconvinced, "Why is it not enough to repay you? My head was once on the Original Sins leaderboard for a bounty of US$ 100 million, alright?"

Jennie buried her face in her hands. "I can't believe you think it's okay to brag about that..."

After she was done with Lang, Jennie immediately rushed to GD's residence in the suburbs.

Now, although all the doctors had pronounced that it was unlikely for Tianxin to get pregnant again in her current condition, she wanted Annie to check Tianxin out. Even if there was a sliver of hope, she wanted to try her luck.

...

After she went home and changed into a male outfit that made it easier for her to move around, Jennie drove her Blackie and rushed to that sinister, old residence in the suburbs.

Even though it was daytime, the house still took on an eerie look, worthy of its title as Imperial's number one haunted house.

However, because it was daytime, plus having watched an entire hard disk of horror movies that seemed to have taken effect, Jennie was obviously much calmer this time.

Lang looked up at the villa and started commenting, "Pfft.... One look at this house and I know that that guy has basically bidden goodbye to any other girl... Which girl would be willing to come home with him?"

"Enough nonsense. Let's quickly get things done." Jennie held her breath and looked on, then she quietly pushed opened the gate and sneaked in.

It was best to sneak Annie out without alarming anyone else, then send her right back in half an hour. Hush-hush...

Just as Annie had said, there did not seem to be many people there today. She did not even see 16. Jennie had very smoothly avoided startling any sirens. She climbed up through the windows and found Annie's room.

"Annie..." Jennie called out in a lowered voice.

"Je!" Inside the room, the sulky girl, who was pounding medicine, put down her things and flew over to her. "Je, you're finally here. I miss you so much!"

"Be good... Don't cry..."

Jennie gently consoled the girl, then looked apologetically. "I'm sorry, Annie. I need to trouble you again."

Annie immediately shook her head hard. "Je, don't say that. You saved my life! I'm just afraid that you won't need me!"
