After she was pulled into the car again, Jennie was caught off guard and forcefully fell forward. Gravity seemed to help her in this situation because the moment she fell, Lisa quickly wrapped an arm around her waist, catching her before she could hit herself somewhere in the car.
However, due to their movements, there were some inevitable things that happened.
For example, Lisa had initially planned for her to kiss him on the cheek. But because of gravity and the direction he pulled her, also because he feared that she would be hurt in the process of it, the two of them ended up having both their lips touched.
That's right. In simple words, the kiss on the cheek he initially wanted turned into a lip to lip kiss.
It was an accident, the two of them knew of this. However, Lisa and Jennie didn't know why but the moment their lips touched, they couldn't help but deepen it until their senses returned.
"That... I'm..." Jennie tried to apologize, knowing that it was indeed inappropriate for them to kiss just after meeting twice. Hell, they're practically strangers, alright!
"No need to say sorry." However, Lisa interjected and stopped her from saying anything. He chuckled as he spoke. "We're married now. A simple kiss is not a problem. I hope it is also not a problem for you as well."
"Of course not!" Jennie flushed even more. "On the contrary, I actually like it."
"Good!" Lisa liked that she was being honest and told him she wasn't repulsed by his touch. It would be quite a problem if it were otherwise.
"I'll go now then."
"Alright..."
The air inside the car turned awkward before Lisa added to say before she closed the door. "I'll call you later."
Jennie nodded shyly before slipping out of the car.
The restaurant ahead was already open and there were some customers sitting at their tables. When she entered the place, she immediately saw Kai who sat in the corner with a dark look on his face.
"Sorry... I was late because of traffic," she said half-heartedly.
"Of course there would be a traffic if a Ferrari drives through the road." He glanced at the car outside. "Who is that? I never knew that a friend of yours could buy the latest car edition from that brand."
Jennie's friend might be wealthy and came from a good background, but all of them were spoiled brats who depended on their parents and waited for their inheritance to come. Basically, they're wastrels who are waiting for their parents to crook over and take the inheritance under their name.
Jennie slowly glanced outside, knowing what car he was talking about and faintly smiled for a bit. The feeling of being kissed still lingered on her lips. "Just someone I know." She inadvertently avoided the whole truth.
"Just someone you know?" Kai sensed that she was hiding something from him and confronted her, "Jennie, we are getting married soon. If you have a new friend, you must tell me so I could also know them. Besides, I am very worried that your new friend came from a bad family background. You must be careful."
The latter half of his sentence was expressing his concern for Jennie. However, if one were to listen properly and pull the words apart, you would find several things that were unpleasant. On one hand, Kai was worried about her safety, and on the other hand, he was expressing his intent to know more about this 'new friend' of hers.
Of course, Jennie knew why he was asking. Whoever owns that limited edition Ferrari was someone who came from a very good background and someone who had a bottomless pocket full of money.
Kai was simply eyeing that delicious piece of golden steak!
But why would Jennie willingly let this scumbag know the name of her husband? What right does he have to eye her Lisa?!
After putting her purse and phone on the back of her seat, Jennie demanded an explanation immediately from him. "I hope you didn't call just to ask me about my new friend."
"Huh?" Kai was distracted slightly before remembering what he had come here for. "I just received a call from your sister. Ji-won told me you left home and posted on your Weibo account. Didn't you say in the past that you're quitting the entertainment world?"
"Oh... so you called me just for this? For my sister?" Jennie still was not impressed.
"Just for this? Isn't your sister's life important to you? She's just started gaining popularity and she'll soon become an A-list actress. If you suddenly come out now, people will start asking."
"Then, let them ask." She folded her arms over her chest and leaned back to her seat.
Seeing her indifferent reaction towards his words, Kai was slightly annoyed. It was as if he could see the arrogant Jennie in the past when he had just met her. "Don't be like this, Jennie. Your parents and sister are waiting at home. You can tell them you made a mistake and apologize for your actions..."
Kai didn't get to finish his words as Jennie shot him a glare. "Why should I go there and tell them I'm sorry when I didn't do anything wrong, Kai? Besides... It shouldn't be me who should apologize. I thought you called me here so you would apologize to me."
Kai was stunned for a moment.
In the past, when Kai told her that she made a mistake, Jennie would run around asking for forgiveness to her family. But now, not only did she tell him she won't apologize, she was demanding for him to apologize to her.
Somehow, Kai suspected he heard the wrong words.
"What? Why should I apologize to you?" asked Kai with a frown on his face. He quickly added after thinking of something, "Whatever you heard from someone, don't believe them. Krystal and I are strictly having a relationship between a boss and his employee. Don't believe anyone's words and ruin our engagement."
A mocking smile ghosted her lips as she replied with deep meaning, "Anyone, you say... Does that include you and my family?"
