Wang Duo’s expression did not look too good after Hyunjin humiliated him in front of everyone. He slammed the table. “Jeon Hyunjin, you’ve gone too far. I did everything I could to get you to go. So what, I’m not your buddy anymore?”

Hyunjin frowned. “Buddy? You think you’re worthy enough to be my buddy?”

His buddy? Anybody can be his buddy now?

“Hyunjin, what do you mean?” Someone around them laughed, and Wang Duo’s expression turned even uglier. He was furious, “Explain!”

“I don’t want to talk to you today. Get lost.” Hyunjin was getting impatient.

Wang Duo wanted to continue pestering him, but Hyunjin kicked his chair over with a bang and grabbed his collar. “You don’t understand the human language, do you? Don’t annoy me!”

A fight was about to erupt when someone suddenly shouted from outside, “Hyunjin, someone is here for you!”

Hyunjin, whose face was filled with anger, instantly changed his expression. As he tidied up his wrinkled clothes, he looked outside with an expectant gaze. Outside the door, he saw a slim and graceful figure walking over, her skirt swaying gracefully.

Hyunjin was so excited that he didn’t even care about his surroundings. He rushed out, “You really came!”

He tried his best not to appear so happy, but he couldn’t suppress his smile no matter how hard he tried.

Sigh, how embarrassing. He already grew up, yet his guardians still came to school to check up on him. How would that look in front of others? However, he couldn’t refuse his sister-in-law’s kind intentions, so he reluctantly accepted it.

Seeing that he kept glancing behind her, Lisa smiled and explained, “The stairs. It’s not convenient for your big brother to come up, so I asked him to wait outside.”

Oh, who cared if he came or not?

Hyunjin pursed his lips and was about to speak when Wang Duo’s annoying voice came from behind him. “Hyunjin, you refused to hang out with us just to wait for a woman? Who is this, she does look…”

“Shut up!”

Hyunjin turned his head abruptly and looked at him coldly. “Wang Duo, I advise you to watch your mouth. This is my sister-in-law.”

“Sister-in-law? Since when do you have a sister-in-law?” Wang Duo was stunned for a moment before he snapped back to reality. “This is… This is your brother Jeon Jungkook’s…”

“That’s right, this is President Jeon’s wife.” Wei Ling appeared out of nowhere and placed his arm on Hyunjin’s shoulder. He smiled maliciously. “What’s the matter, Wang Duo, you wanted to skip class with Hyunjin again?”

“Skip class?”

Lisa narrowed her eyes.

“I didn’t!”

Hyunjin instinctively defended himself. “I didn’t skip class. They did ask me to go out, but I didn’t agree!”

“That’s good.”

Lisa nodded. Her gaze fell on Hyunjin’s silver hair and Wang Duo’s green hair. After a long pause, she said, “Your grades are dependent on your intellect. I’m not asking you to do well, but a student has to act like a student and attend class properly. I believe that as long as you attend class properly, you’ll pass the final exam, right?”

Lisa smiled and pointed at Ji Yang’s hand and brain. “Members of the Jeon family aren’t stupid, right?”

Hyunjin’s palm tightened. For some reason, Lisa’s nonchalant glance reminded him of the pain he felt when she struck his palm. He quickly responded, “Yes, yes, yes, I will pass!”

Wang Duo’s mouth dropped open when he saw Hyunjin’s cowardly attitude.

“Okay, I believe you can do it too.” Lisa handed him the fruit tea she bought on the way here and said gently, “Now go back to class. After school, I will ask Auntie Chen to prepare that fried yellow croaker dish you like for dinner.”

Taehyun, who grew up with his brother after his parents passed away when he was young, became jealous and he sarcastically mocked, “Hmph, not mentioning the fight last time, you even need your family to bring you drinks? Hyunjin, are you still breastfeeding?”

“What?”

Lisa replied indifferently. “Why do you care if his sister-in-law brings him food? Or is it because your brother is too busy with work to take care of you? Are you jealous?”

Various emotions flashed across Taehyun’s face when he heard her.

Seeing him like this, Hyunjin gloated. The fruit tea was ice-cold. Drinking it during the hot summer helped clear his mind and made him feel more alive.

After Lisa left, he held the fruit tea and pushed away Wang Duo. He said enthusiastically, “Go away. Don’t disturb me while I’m studying!”

That night, Lisa was thirsty and went downstairs to get some water. However, she saw Suho running upstairs in a hurry. She stopped him. “What’s wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?”

Seeing her, Suho first heaved a sigh of relief, but he still looked anxious. “Madam, I just received a call saying that Second Young Master went to Pan Shan District to race..”
