My Little Sweet Wife 1

Chapter 123 - Unnamed Woman With No Status

Jennie immediately looked at Lisa. When she saw a soft smile on his face, she did not know what to think and what was the meaning behind Lisa's words.

Because the two leaders were here, she couldn't ask. She could only nod obediently with a polite smile.

"Isn't that the Shi Family's daughter?" Suddenly, Director Wang saw a figure walking past and immediately smiled as he went to greet her.

No one knew when Shi Zheng had arrived, but it was clear that she had intentionally walked past them. As Director Wang greeted her, she paused and turned back to look at them.

Immediately, her eyes filled with laughter, "Aiya, look at my eyes, I didn't notice you guys here just now. Director Wang, you've taken care of yourself well these past two years, you're getting younger."

Director Wang instantly touched his beer belly with a chuckle. "Miss Shi's mouth, like it's was smeared with honey, haha."

"Director Yan, you are here too. Good to see you." Shi Zheng shifted her gaze to Director Yan and walked towards him with a smile.

Director Wang and Director Yan were both elders in their fifties. Their smiles were filled with kindness and politeness.

It was only when Shi Zheng turned to look at Lisa with a smile then she saw his arm wrapped around Jennie's waist.

Shi Zheng raised her eyebrows and chuckled, "President Manoban doesn't intend to introduce us?"

Shi Zheng's calmness caused Jennie to be slightly surprised. Jennie raised her head and met with her gaze without fear. Her gaze met Shi Zheng's smiling eyes that had a hint of disdain.

Jennie nonchalantly smiled, "Hello, Miss Shi. I am Jennie Kim. Please take good care of me."

"Jennie Kim?" Shi Zheng arrogantly raised her voice before shifting her gaze to Lisa's face. With obvious doubt in her eyes, she said, "I don't think I've heard that name before."

"Jennie's job is not in the business circles, and we intentionally kept a low profile after we got married. Since Miss Shi was a busy woman, you must have never heard of it." Lisa glanced at Shi Zheng.

"Marry?" Shi Zheng was startled. A crack finally appeared in the calmness in her eyes, and she quickly returned to her previous expression. She coldly glanced at Jennie who was being hugged by Lisa, and snorted with an unkind smile. "I heard my father mention it, but I didn't believe it. I didn't expect it to be true."

"However, with your status, are you really willing to marry an unnamed woman with no such status?" Shi Zheng raised her slender arms disapprovingly and lightly hugged her chest. After Director Wang and Director Yan leave, Shi Zheng sneered as she looked Jennie up and down in disdain.

Jennie didn't say a word the whole time. She just looked at the arrogant woman in front of her and laughed coldly.

It was true that she had no last name, but she was still much better than someone born with a golden spoon in her mouth and trying to seduce someone else's husband.

In an instant, Jennie was confused again.

Since when did she need to brood over a woman like Shi Zheng?

"Miss Shi, this is not a joking thing. You are overstepping your boundaries. What's the relationship between someone's status and love? There is no boundary to true love, let alone such insignificant things like status." Lisa raised his eyebrows.

"Is that so?" Shi Zheng smiled mockingly and gently pushed her wavy hair behind her neck. She cast a glance at Jennie who was smiling widely at Lisa and asked, "I have something to say to President Manoban, can you leave us alone?"

Jennie looked at Shi Zheng confidently and did not move. Not only did she not move, but Lisa's hand also lightly clasped around her waist, clearly not intending to let her go.

If her own husband insisted on her status here, why would she leave?

"What does Miss Shi want to say? Jennie is not an outsider. Just say it directly." Lisa was still smiling as if nothing had happened. Not that he couldn't tell that Shi Zheng's eyes were burning with anger.

Jennie smiled shamelessly. "That's right, you don't have to treat me as an outsider."

Shi Zheng's expression turned slightly cold. She gave a cold snort and glanced sideways at Jennie. "Miss Kim is truly interesting."

"What do you mean?" Jennie tilted her head innocently.

When Jennie really wanted to anger someone, she had absolute talent. Lisa shot her a glance, and his eyes had a hint of interest.

"It's nothing. I just realized that some people don't really know how to appreciate favors. They really think of themselves as a root." Shi Zheng snorted coldly before turning around and leaving with a cold expression. She gave Lisa, who had obviously turned a blind eye to her, a look of unwillingness.

Jennie didn't say a word as she looked at Shi Zheng's arrogant figure. Her eyes didn't have a victorious expression. She only sized up the woman's back and guessed that Shi Zheng wouldn't let the matter rest.

"That person is gone. Why are you still looking at her?"

Lisa's voice suddenly sounded behind her. Jennie suddenly turned and looked at him. "You don't want to part with her?"

Lisa's eyes twitched. "Jennie, are you jealous?"

Jennie snorted lazily. "I'm trying to protect my own dignity."

Lisa suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled at her.

Jennie stepped out of Lisa's arms and looked at the trace of unfathomability in his eyes. She curled her lips, "Even if I don't enter the drama too deeply, I should still maintain my dignity, right? Since you've already introduced me as your wife, I couldn't refrain myself from warning someone who so blatantly wanting to lay their hands on my husband just like a stupid wife, am I?"

Lisa smiled faintly. "What if I get into the show first?"

With that, he turned around with a smile and shook hands with a middle-aged man in luxurious clothing behind him.

Jennie's heart thumped in her chest as she looked at Lisa's back in astonishment.

Half an hour later, the banquet began. Although the charity banquet was hosted by the political and business circles, there was also a bit of casualness in the seriousness of the atmosphere. The political leaders and the business elites were separated into three groups, with a large dance floor in the middle.

Lisa was still chatting with the man in the fancy suit. Jennie was sitting at a table beside him with a bored expression.

She ate something from time to time, but her eyes would occasionally glance in Lisa's direction.

Why did Lisa say something so vague?

What exactly did he mean?

Jennie thought of a possibility, but she was afraid that she was overthinking it. Maybe Lisa was just joking with her but... His words... It didn't seem like he was joking. For the past half hour, Jennie had been thinking about what Lisa had meant.

When the banquet was full of noise and excitement, some people suddenly came in from the front door and caught everyone's attention.

Jennie turned her head to look, but when she saw Jihoon enter the hall, her face froze.

In the last two years, Jihoon became the first person in the financial circle in G City. He was considered one of the top figures in the domestic business. Wherever he went, he was always very grand.

When Jihoon walked in, Lisa immediately glanced at Jennie, who was sitting on the side.
