Jennie frowned as she gave it some thought before nodding. "I'll ask him about it. What about you? If Kim Joon sent Miyeon to handle this project, what will happen to you?"
Jisoo smiled and closed his eyes. "What can I do? I'll just do whatever I can."
"Kim Joon... Why does he hold such a huge bias against you? He shouldn't treat you like this even if he really favors Sehun." Jennie looked straight at Jisoo. "No matter what, you're still his son."
If it were not for Jisoo's similarity in appearance with Kim Joon, Jennie seriously doubted if Jisoo was actually Kim Joon's son. There was no need to check. How could they not be?
"It doesn't matter. I've never thought of him as my father anyway. I'm just here to visit you today and I heard from the doctor you'll be discharged in two days. I'll be visiting you at Maple Residence then." Jisoo stood up as he spoke in a bland tone, his usual cheekiness nowhere to be seen, "I'll head back for now. I've got something to attend to tonight. You two had better buy me a drink after you've recovered. Goodbye!"
Jennie nodded. "Alright, thank you, and Happy New Year."
Jisoo waved his hand and walked towards the door, his retreating figure appearing lonely.
Jennie took a deep breath. With parents and environment like that, Jisoo was really...
Night arrived soon, and it was 11p.m. when the plane touched down in City Z.
"Haruto, send Master Kang back home," Lisa left an order before boarding his car.
"It's late at night. Don't you want to eat something first?" Seulgi asked.
"I've had some on the plane, let Haruto send you back."
His car quickly left, it was easy to guess where he was heading.
Haruto watched the car as it disappeared in the dark. A while later, he asked Seulgi with a frown, "Master Kang, did Master tell you anything? I can feel that he has a lot on his mind. Did he find out something? Why did we suddenly come back? We might've been able to find the answer if we continue investigating. Why come back now and leave Bambam alone there?"
Seulgi's expression turned solemn as well. He thought about his conversation with Lisa. Moments later, he took a deep breath and then said, "Maybe that's just how he rolls. He probably thinks there's no need to investigate anymore. Well, he has his own concerns."
Haruto nodded. "Concerns? But Master didn't do anything, or could he already know what's happening?"
"Let's wait for the outcome of the investigation from Bambam. This matter isn't as simple as we thought. Why else would there be no results after so many years of searching? I'm starting to feel uneasy now that we're getting closer to the truth. Well, there's no point in worrying now. I'm sure things will work out when the time comes. Believe your Master," advised Seulgi before he got into the car.
"I'm not going back to my place. Head to Master Lee's place instead."
"Yes, Master Kang!"
The car drove past quickly under the moonlight.
Inside Hospital T, Jennie made Chittip go home in the evening. There was a huge group of bodyguards standing by as well as the nurse Aunt Yue, so Jennie felt safe and comfortable during this period of time.
Before she went to sleep, the nurse took Leo over to hold him for a while. Jennie then went to sleep soon after.
It was very cold late at night when Lisa walked into the hospital with a strong, crisp breeze.
As Jennie was asleep, she felt her blanket being moved and a familiar scent reached her nose. Before she could react she found herself wrapped in a warm hug.
"Didn't you say you needed a few days? Why are you back now?" Jennie wrapped her arms around him as she asked.
"I just returned as soon as I was done. Don't ask so many questions and just sleep, alright?"
When she finally managed to open her sleepy eyes and looked at him, he climbed over and gave her a goodnight kiss before falling asleep.
Jennie was wide awake when she heard his deep breathing right beside her. She looked at him for a long while as she ran her fingers through his messy hair.
The New Year holiday passed, and they quickly returned to their normal daily lives.
However, there were a lot of traffic accidents recently, thus Moonbyul had to work overtime almost every day. Sometimes, he could only go home in the morning like right now.
He drove down the highway and quickly arrived at an expensive residential area.
There was a severe accident at a highway yesterday. Moonbyul received the news just as he was falling asleep, so he then had to get up and rush over. He did not expect the whole thing to last until the morning. Right now, he was so sleepy that he asked his assistant to send him home after he left his colleagues his orders.
He finally arrived home. Just as he was getting his key card—
"Long time no see, Instructor Lee!" A loud voice came from behind him, and it was filled with fury!
Moonbyul was stunned for a moment. He quickly spun around.
Solar was wearing a large black coat as she stood behind him. While his slightly bloodshot eyes seemed confused, his tone was calm. "Why are you here so early in the morning? What do you want?"
Moonbyul took out his key card and opened the door before entering.
Solar's eyes turned cold as her expression darkened. She followed him in before closing the door.
Moonbyul threw his briefcase onto the sofa and took out his coat. Then, he grabbed himself a glass of water and swigged it before looking at the woman who came into his house. "Speak. I'm very busy."
Solar's rage erupted like a volcano. "I'm very busy as well and I don't have time to play with you. Moonbyul, you're really a bastard! You can stop your prank now!"
