As soon as Lalisa got home, Jinhwan and Hyunbin rushed over to her. Jinhwan looked at the marks on Lalisa's wrist, and frowned. "What happened? Taehyung told me on the phone that you were kidnapped by Lu Guangxiong. Is what he said true?"

Laliss smiled, hid her hands behind her back and then said in a low voice, "Don't speak so loudly. If Grandpa hears you, he will be worried."

Hyunbin frowned and asked, "Why did Lu Guangxiong kidnap you? You and..."

"I quarreled with his daughter Lu Xiaojing today." Lalisa looked over at the dining hall, "I'm hungry. Is there any food left?"

Jinhwan nodded, asked Lily to prepare dinner for Lalisa and asked her, "He kidnapped you just for this?!"

"Lili, is it because you and..." Hyunbin looked excitedly at Lalisa. Did she have any special relationship with Jungkook? He knew Jungkook and Taehyung were good friends. If his daughter was together with Jungkook through Taehyung... Then it was way better for Lili to marry Jungkook than marry Mingyu.

Lalisa smiled. "Who and I?" Lalisa took a look at Jiwon's room and smiled. "When a teacher picked on me in the school as instigated by Yao Tzuyu last time, Taehyung happened to stay with Jungkook. I asked Taehyung to come to my school and he brought Jungkook to my school with him. Maybe Lu Xiaojing told this to her father, so Lu Guangxiong thought I had some special relationship with Jungkook and kidnapped me."

Lalisa gave a self-deprecating smile. "That's really an undeserved catastrophe for me. I think I should go to a temple and pray to Buddha to drive the bad luck away from me. With one accident after another, I wouldn't doubt it if I am currently being possessed by a ghost."

Hyunbin's face froze when he heard Lalisa mention Tzuyu. He didn't know what to say and could only laugh awkwardly. "Oh, I see. Have a shower, dress your wounds and go downstairs to have dinner."

Lalisa nodded and walked to Jiwon's room. "I want to see mother first."

Jinhwan looked at Lalisa's back and called Hyunbin, "Dad, let's talk."

Hyunbin took a look at Jinhwan to see the latter had walked outside. Hyunbin frowned but still followed him out. Jinhwan stood in the courtyard, lit a cigarette and looked back at Hyunbin who shook his head. "I have to take care of your mom. I can't smoke."

Jinhwan put away the cigarette case, and took a puff of the cigarette. Hyunbin frowned. "Are you stressed at work?"

Jinhwan shook his head. "No, I want to talk with you about something else."

Hyunbin couldn't help frowning again and asked, "What is it?"

Jinhwan puffed out smoke and stared at his shoes. "I hope you don't meddle in Lili's marriage. She is still a freshman in high school, and still too young. Our company doesn't need any business partners. Besides, I can handle the company myself, so Dad, I hope we can give Lili a warm and comfortable home, not a depressing cage. You're forcing her to leave by doing this."

"What are you talking about?!" Hyunbin's face sank. "When did I make her depressed? I don't want to meddle in her marriage, okay?! Lili doesn't like Mingyu, so I won't force her to marry Mingyu."

"That's good." Jinhwan said and looked up at Yoongi who suddenly appeared in the yard. The latter came over and greeted the two of them. Hyunbin said hello awkwardly and asked, "Yoongi, when did you come over?"

Yoongi looked at the cigarette in Jinhwan's hand. "I've been here for a while. I was answering a call and smoking outside for a while. Were you busy?"

"No." Hyunbin patted Yoongi's shoulder. "I've heard that you're already a lieutenant colonel? That's great. You are more excellent than your dad and me."
