On the penultimate Friday before the annual leave, Manoban Group held its annual meeting at a certain stadium as scheduled.

Jennie and Lisa left from the villa. On the way, they received a WeChat message from Chaeng saying that she was already there.

The annual meetings of large conglomerates like Manoban Group usually invite some popular celebrities, with excitement levels comparable to concerts. With inside information provided by Lisa, Jennie had already grasped who the guests Manoban Group had invited for this annual meeting, including their dormitory's collective "husband", Gong Yoo. Sharing joy with others is better than enjoying it alone, so Jennie asked Lisa if she could invite three dorm mates to come along. Lisa was very generous, "As long as you want, you can invite the students from your entire college."

Jennie didn't want to make a big fuss, she just got three tickets for her dorm mates, pretty good seats close to the front.

The stadium was just up ahead, brightly lit. Jennie suddenly started feeling nervous.

This was the first time she accompanied Lisa to a big event.

Lisa casually held her hand, her small hand white and delicate, silky smooth. Her palm was a little sweaty. Lisa smiled and glanced at the driver. He leaned toward Jennie and said softly, "Are there a lot of pets at the hospital registration counter? Try imagining the people you'll see later as pets."

Who compares company employees to pets?

Jennie deliberately said, "Then are you the boss of the pets?"

The corners of Lisa's lips turned up. As he spoke, his warm lips occasionally grazed her reddish earlobes. "So who does Miss Kim think I resemble as a pet?"

Hearing his low, ambiguous voice, Jennie's heartstrings were suddenly plucked.

She did have an experience once of seeing a pet that made her think of Lisa.

It was a retired police dog, a German Shepherd, brought to the hospital by its owner. Working at a pet hospital, Jennie had seen almost all breeds of dogs, but that German Shepherd called Hei left the deepest impression on her. Hei's fur was glossy, tall and mighty looking, very intimidating. But at the hospital it behaved aloof and restrained, obediently following its owner. A waiting room cat boldly reached out a paw to touch it, and Hei only tilted its head to look, then continued crouching, unmoved by external things.

But at that time Jennie inexplicably felt that Hei was very gentle.

Just like Lisa, both cold and handsome yet patient, gentle like a spring breeze when he wanted to be.

Jennie turned her head and smiled out the window.

"What are you smiling about?" Lisa leaned over to see her face, guessing she had found a pet to correspond to him.

Jennie looked at him and cautiously said, "You promised not to get angry."

Lisa nodded.

Jennie looked at him again. She took out her phone, blocked it with her hand, and searched for a photo of a German Shepherd to show him.

Lisa lowered his head to look at the phone. Jennie curiously watched his face, and saw Lisa smile, a particularly bright smile, smiling like the Big Bad Wolf standing outside Little Red Riding Hood's door...

"You told me to say it." Jennie snatched back her phone, but couldn't help smiling at the corners of her mouth.

Lisa gently patted her thigh. He didn't say anything.

The car stopped. Lisa told Jennie not to move, he would get out first and come around to get her. The car door opened and Lisa leaned down, reaching out to help her. "Mrs. Shepherd, please."
