Chapter 48

So, he only called out my name to tell me what Xiaowang had already told me...

Lisa, seemingly unconcerned, nodded and said, "I've got it, Master Jeon."

He raised his chin slightly to Wu Hao and Xu Wennuan, who had just gotten out of their car, and said, "There are many people here who you won't know, but stick with them and you'll be fine.

With a gentle smile, she replied, "Hmm."

He didn't say another word. He didn't need to. He had been in a good mood all day, and seeing her smile he gave her a gentle smile back.

After Xu Wennuan and Lisa had walked arm in arm and entered the clubhouse with Wu Hao and Lu Bancheng, Jungkook turned around and looked at Li Yan, who was still standing from where she had called him.

Over the years, he had always had young, pretty secretaries around him, but he had never had an affair with any of them. Despite Li Yan always badgering him about this, she had never really paid attention to those women. But with Lisa it has been different.

Li Yan was so obsessed with Lisa that she would take Old Master Jeon to Hui Shi simply to harass her and drive her away.

Am I overthinking it? Could Li Yan not really be trying to deliberately get rid of Lisa?

Maybe she was really angry because Lisa had spilled the coffee carelessly, and she had taken the opportunity to lose her temper. But that's not normal behavior so I'm suspicious of her motives.

Assuming that Li Yan is really trying to drive Lisa away, then the only explanation is that she is afraid of Lisa's existence.

Why would she be afraid of Lisa especially?

The only answer is that Lisa is a tremendous threat to her.

In this world, only little troublemaker could make Li Yan feel threatened.

Because Li Yan knows that the only woman I love is little troublemaker.

This is why he had secretly given Lisa an invitation to the Jeon Company annual party, why he had Lisa ride with him in his car, and why, when Li Yan had called him, he had let her stand beside him.

He had done all these things deliberately, because he wanted Li Yan to see it herself.

Just now, for instance, he hadn't really said anything meaningful to his little secretary, but he had tilted his head slightly and smiled at her. His actions were intended to make Li Yan deliberately misunderstand that he and Lisa were intimate.

If she really considers Lisa a threat, the more intimate I'll be with Lisa, and the more panicky Li Yan will be. She could completely lose her temper and go as far as to find Lisa.

He finally turned away from Li Yan. He looked at Xiaowang and then entered the club, as if Li Yan wasn't there at all.

Xiaowang quickly said "goodbye" to Li Yan and then followed Jungkook inside.

This year, the annual Jeon Company party was different from those of the past in that the style was Chinese rather than Western. This included seating assignments.

Jungkook sat at the main table, with Old Master Jeon, Li Yan, and Old Master Li.

Lisa, Xu Wennuan, and Wu Hao sat together at a table some distance from Jungkook's table, while Lu Bancheng and Xiaowang sat next to the main table.

At eight o'clock, the annual party commenced.

On a brightly lit stage, two hosts warmed up the audience by introducing the evening's events with clever jokes and stories. After one gave an impressive introduction to the first speaker, the other enthusiastically announced, "Please welcome the chairman of the board of the Jeon Company, Jeon Jungkook!"
