The tears that Jennie shed after being provoked by Chaerin came and went quickly, like a thunderstorm, leaving only her swollen red eyes.

After washing her face and coming out, she saw Lisa standing outside the bathroom. His dark eyes looked at her with concern.

Jennie lowered her head. Before she could think of what to say, Lisa opened his arms and walked over, hugging her tightly. The shirt he had been wearing before was wet with her tears, so he had changed into a pure white one, filled with his unique scent, clean and reassuring.

"Did I get you into trouble?" Jennie asked in a small voice, buried in his chest. The main purpose of Chaerin and her husband coming to the capital was to borrow money. Jennie was afraid they would find other ways to pester Lisa.

"They don't have that ability yet," Lisa said in a low voice, rubbing his chin on the top of her head, extremely domineering.

Jennie laughed and raised her arms to hug his waist. After a while, she said gloomily, "No matter what they ask of you in the future, just ignore them." She didn't owe anything to Chaerin, and Lisa owed them even less. Lisa treated her so well, and she still felt bad about spending the money he had transferred to her under various pretexts. What right did Chaerin have to take it for granted that Lisa should give them money to help them out?

For her two so-called half-siblings?

Thinking that in Chaerin's eyes, her daughter's inability to study abroad was a great grievance, Jennie's heart was about to choke up.

She didn't care if Chaerin recognized her or not, but why did Chaerin have to come out and vex her again?

"If you're worried, I'll hand over all my money to you. You can give me a little living allowance every month," Lisa teased her with a smile, to put his fiancée's mind at ease.

Right now Jennie just liked listening to her man talk. With her forehead against his chest, she deliberately asked, "How much living allowance do you need every month?"

Lisa thought about it as he held her, kissed her cheek and said, "No less than twenty."

Jennie asked in confusion, "Twenty million?"

Lisa laughed and bit her ear, "Twenty times."

Jennie's face turned red. She silently calculated that last month, adding up day and night, it was indeed more than twenty times.

"Let's go downstairs and eat first," Lisa coaxed his fiancée and habitually picked her up to go downstairs to the dining room.

Probably guessing that Jennie was in a bad mood, Mrs. Wang had cooked all of Jennie's favorites tonight - spicy tofu, spicy chicken wings, chopped fish head in chili oil... At a glance, only the lily bulb soup was not spicy. Jennie was drooling. On an empty stomach, she had no time to think about unhappy things.

"Have another one," Lisa gave her another chicken wing.

Jennie lowered her head and nibbled on it in small bites.

Before she could finish the chicken wing, the phone placed between them rang. They looked at the caller ID together: Mother-in-law.

Jennie's eyes widened. During the winter break of her freshman year, she had exchanged phone numbers with Chitthip and her husband at the mahjong table. But until now, apart from Jennie sending them New Year's greetings and getting polite replies, this was the first time Chitthip had taken the initiative to contact her.

The feeling was even more unexpected and nerve-wracking than receiving a call from a national leader.

"You eat first." Since it was a family call, Lisa glanced at the chicken wing still in Jennie's hand and quickly grabbed the phone.
