As Lisa had said, the next morning, Jennie could not get up at all.

After all, it was the first day of the new year.She didn't want to care about anything right now. She only wanted to spend her day sleeping. Breakfast was about to begin, and she was still curled up in her blanket.

Nanny Cheng has called her several times. Jennie claimed that she had overeaten yesterday and now felt uncomfortable. She tried to find an excuse not to get out of bed, especially since she didn't have the strength to do so.

Lisa pushed the door open and entered.

"Get up quickly and let's have breakfast."

"No." Jennie covered her head with the blanket and immediately refused. However, her voice was soft as she mumbled softly.

She knew that it was the first day of the new year. Maybe the Old Man and the others were still waiting for her to eat breakfast together, so she did not resist any longer and subconsciously lifted her hands to wrap them around Lisa's neck as he picked her up.

"Today is the first day of the new year." Lisa pulled off the covers from the bed and wrapped them around her body. He gently carried her straight to the bathroom.

Jennie curled up in his arms and mumbled, "It's not my fault. You're the one who didn't let me sleep. I'm tired and sleepy."

Lisa chuckled and put her into the bathtub that was filled with hot water. The warm water eased her tired body, and Jennie accidentally let out a comfortable moan. Lisa squatted in front of her and helped her take a shower.

When he carried her out of the bathroom, she actually wasn't sleepy anymore. Jennie just stayed in his embrace and calmly listened to his steady heartbeat.

An indescribable happiness emerged in her heart. Suddenly, she raised her head and mischievously bit his chin.

Lisa's footstep immediately paused. He looked down at her with a darkened gaze. Jennie smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Grandpa is still waiting for us."

Lisa gently dodged her mischievous nibbling and covered her lips with his. Taking advantage of her opening mouth, he directly caught her tongue and kissed her until she gasped for breath. Only then did he smile and put her down beside the bed.

"Get dressed and eat first. There's something I need to do at Manoban Group. I will have a meeting in the afternoon." Lisa comforted her by gently patting her on the head. "I may have to go on a business trip in a few days. If you don't want to stay at Manoban Residence, we will return to Greenville Residence tomorrow."

"Business trip?" Jennie was stunned. "Isn't it now the Spring Festival holiday."

Lisa smiled. "There's nothing I can do about it. Some urgent tasks must be completed regardless of the holidays."

"How long will you be gone?" For the first time, Jennie felt a sense of loss when she heard her husband was going on a business trip. She immediately sat on the bed and didn't move.

"At least a week, or at most half a month." He gently kissed her forehead as if he was comforting her, "Don't be so reluctant to part for now. I still have a few days to spend with you before I leave."

Jennie thought about it and she felt that she might be a little childish, but her feelings of reluctance and frustration were also real. She paused for a moment, then got up from the bed and went to the closet. After changing, she walked out of the room with Lisa and asked, "Are you going to Beijing?"

"No, it's Shanghai this time."

Lisa straightened his sleeves when he suddenly caught a glimpse of something. Jennie was brushing her hair off her shoulders. There were faintly discernible marks under her neck near her collarbone.
