Bloody hell! This dude doesn't abstain from men or women! He had better not have taken a liking to my darling!
Actually, there had been a long period of time when she had suspected that he liked men. After all, before she returned to the country, she had appeared in male outfits before this guy. When she dressed up as a man for long, she herself had almost forgotten her own gender. She remembered that when GD had suggested that they start dating, she was so shocked that she was at a complete loss and had immediately insisted, "I'm not gay!".
Later on, she and Third Senior Sister Hyeri had privately discussed their niggling suspicion about whether he actually liked men many times.
When he saw Jennie's expression, the man on the sick bed gently laughed, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in men."
Jennie remained alert. "Do you think your words are trustworthy? Also, even though you helped me this time, because you kept bleeding like you were on your menses and almost died, it was Lisa's blood transfusion that saved you. We're considered even now!"
The man revealed a contemplative expression as thoughts raced through his head. He said indifferently, "As the head of the Manoban family and as the Manoban Corporation's helmsman, just in case of anything, do you think the entire Manoban family wouldn't store such a rare blood type? Yet, he had personally transfused blood to me...
"Huh, my dear, you can't even recognize such a shallow trick of injuring oneself to gain the enemy's confidence! Has your IQ been fed to the dogs?"
The moment he said that, Lisa's eyes dimmed. He looked icily at the man on the sick bed who kept provoking him. At the same time, there was an indistinct worry in them.
After Jennie heard GD's words, she was stunned, then she looked blankly at Lisa beside her. In the next second, she threw herself into the man's embrace and looked up with a touched expression. "Honey, thank you..."
The words that Lisa had said to her at the start, "I just wanted to let you know, no one, and nothing can affect your decision, you only need to consider me, and one thing, that is whether you like me or not" suddenly flashed in Jennie's mind.
And he had really done just that just so she would not be burdened. He did not hesitate to transfuse blood for GD personally just to help her return this favor to GD.
Lisa breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the girl with an incredibly gentle gaze.
There had never been a need for words of explanations between them.
GD, who watched them hug and was almost so bitter that he was about to bleed again, was speechless.
"Ahem..." At the room entrance, Yeon had spoken up in time and saved his boss who was about to die from anger. "Little Junior Sister, you guys can go back now. I'll be here to watch him."
Jennie scratched her head. "Ah, that wouldn't be too nice. I think I'll stay to help. After all, it was because of me..."
Yeon only sighed and tactfully said, "With you two here, it'll stir the patient's emotions."
Jennie just realized she seemed to have accidentally displayed her affection publicly. GD's gaze looked murderous, so she pulled Lisa and ran off immediately. "Ahem, okay... First Senior Brother, if there's anything you need me for, contact me again. Bye bye..."
...
After Jennie and Lisa left, the man on the sick bed looked wretched. "Busybody."
Yeon adjusted his spectacles and did not respond. "The master is on his way here."
GD frowned and looked even worse now. "Troublesome..."
Soon after, there was the sound of many footsteps outside the room, then the door was pushed opened. A middle-aged man in a traditional outfit walked in.
