The CEO's Beloved Wife (Jenlisa Adaptation)

Chapter 11

Lisa was a little dazed as made her way out of her office. The words "treat you well" repeated itself over and over again in her mind until it was interrupted by the sight of Jisoo standing at the office doorway.

"This morning, did President Kim suffer from some kind of shock?" Lisa asked Jisoo apprehensively. Why else would she be acting so abnormally?

The corners of Jisoo's lips twitched as he stifled a smile. With feigned seriousness, he answered, "I'm not too sure either."

Jennie was indeed acting abnormally, but when was this superior of his ever normal? If she was, then he wouldn't revere and fear her as much as he did.

The two made some business talk again before Lisa finally left, carrying a giant question mark in his mind.

Back inside the office, Jennie was also feeling a bit depressed. She'd bluntly expressed her goodwill to her, but why didn't Lisa smile? Was she still not treating her well enough? Or was she just too stupid to realize her goodwill?

Conflicted, she started to grumble silently about the handiness of emotion-related affairs. The difficulty of the mission was too high, so she decided to ask for help.

"Lil' Zero, you tell me. What should I do?"

【 Master, I've never been in love before either, I don't know! 】

001 appeared, red-faced and helpless.

"Then what do you know?"

Seeing the slightly dark look on Jennie's face, 001 thought hard to come up with a solution.

【 I know plenty. Master, you could try activating the Auxiliary Assistance function and asking it for help. It's very useful. 】

"Then let's activate it."

As soon as she finished speaking, a virtual screen manifested before her.

Activating AUXILIARY ASSISTANCE...

What does Host need assistance with?

"I need to know what I should do to make Lisa genuinely smile!"

There are Many methods, but not all are guaranteed to work. This inquiry belongs to the subjective will of humans, which is not and cannot be controlled by the System.

Do you wish to continue?

"Continue," Jennie's tone was rather heavy. She was starting to suspect that the System was defective.

Take her on a date, wash her clothes for her, cook for her, clean up her room, personally do something for her, or do something romantic. Based on the System's analysis, the Woman is not unhappy about the things you did for her. Rather, she finds it unrealistic and is thus unresponsive. As the saying goes, "Sincerity can crack even metal and stone." If Host continues to treat her well, then there will definitely be good results.

Jennie fell silent as she pondered over the System's response. When she tried to pick something to do, she helplessly realized that there was nothing she could do. Wash clothes, cook, and clean! Weren't these all chores for the servants? From when she was a child to now, she'd never done any of them before!

As for romantic things, she'd never thought about anything like that before either!

What was a date like? Eating, shopping, and watching movies?

After a moment of contemplation, Jennie decided to give it a try. Just because she didn't know how to do something didn't mean she couldn't learn.

A date, was it? Eating a meal was no problem at all.

"Jisoo, go reserve a table at a restaurant and invite Lisa to have lunch with me." She hung up immediately after but then picked up the phone again.

"The restaurant should have a romantic atmosphere. This is a date, understand?" Afraid that Jisoo wouldn't understand her meaning, she made sure to emphasize the word "date."

"Understood!" This time, Jisoo really felt like he was enlightened! With this, only an idiot would still be clueless.

When he called Lisa, the actress was in the middle of going over his scripts. Between the two scripts, she had to select one to film first, and she was in quite a dilemma about which one to pick.

"Jisoo, do you need something?"

"President Kim invited you to lunch, and she specifically told me to find a restaurant with a more romantic atmosphere," Jisoo stressed the word "romantic."

"Romantic? Are you sure you heard her, right?" Lisa felt that her auditory hallucinations were worsening.

"President Kim emphasized that she wants to have a date with you. Do you have any good recommendations? I'll go make the reservation."

Date... tut-tut, a couple that had been married three years already was going on a date? Although it was strange, it still elicited an extent of envy.

As lunchtime approached, Lisa became more and more uneasy. From time to time, she would lift his head to look up at the ceiling. It was as though sshe was trying to see Jennie through the layers upon layers of floors that laid below her office, which was at the very top floor.

Should she go pick her up? Or should she wait for her at the parking lot? Why did she invite her to lunch? What exactly did she mean by "date"? Why did she ask for a romantic restaurant?

The myriad of questions whirling around in her mind made her dizzy.

.....

Kim Entertainment was an integrated entertainment company. The building had a grand total of forty-five floors with an office division, an artist work division, and various other divisions. As the president, Jennie occupied the company's highest floor and would rarely appear in other parts of the buildings.

Therefore, when she appeared in the artist work division, she attracted quite a bit of attention.

Since Lisa recently became the new Film Empress, her studio and lounge were naturally located in the best and most conspicuous part of the floor. Under the scrutinizing gazes of everyone else in the division, Jennie calmly walked to Lisa's studio and entered without even knocking on the door, leaving a fury of discussion in her wake.

Lisa's studio was a suite. The outer section contained her office, and the inner section contained his lounge. Jennie didn't see anyone in the office area, so she went straight to the lounge. Without any hesitation, she pushed open the door.

"Huh?" A sound of faint surprise escaped her lips. She instantly stopped in place and looked at the Woman standing before her.

The sound prompted Lisa to hurriedly turn around, revealing a portion of her built upper body through the shirt that she had been in the middle of buttoning up. Her bronze skin was worthy of coveting.

"Jennie!" Lisa exclaimed, extremely surprised. When she noticed her staring unabashedly at his half-exposed body, she abruptly spun around again.

"I'm changing. Can you go outside and wait until I'm done?" Lisa asked uncomfortably.

Since it was still early, she had intended to change his clothes first. Regardless of the reason why Jennie invited her out for a meal, she thought that he should at least put on something more formal to wear.

Only, who would've expected her to come to early and enter her lounge without even knocking first? That gaze of hers made her feel a tad bit uneasy.

"You can continue, I'll wait right here."

While her voice was normal, her actions were not. She stood there without any intention of moving, her gaze still fixated on Lisa's stiffening body.
