Hanbin looked at the beautiful Lisa through the camera lens. His heart ached so much that he could not breathe. She just sat there normally. The background was also an ordinary music room. However, the light of the world seemed to gather and shined on her.

She was so beautiful, so dazzling, but she was so far away from him.

Begging someone was the most torturous thing. Hanbin clutched his chest. He finally tasted the pain of losing someone he loved. However, there was a fatal sweetness in this pain. Thinking that this was the person he liked, he couldn’t help but feel happy. He thought for a moment and then he sent out a message. “My love for Lisa is simply wishful thinking on my part. Miss Lalisa has never responded to my feelings. I was just unwilling to accept it. I hope that everyone will not make wild guesses.”

His statement didn’t cause too much of a stir because it was intercepted by Jungkook.

In the study of the Jeon family, Jungkook sneered. He dared to confess to Lisa, did he think Jungkook was dead?

The next day, the family returned back to their usual routine, but there was a faint difference. The Jeon family’s younger siblings were all fiercely holding in their anger. Even Eunwoo, who was usually lazy, was a little restless. It was as though he was venting some kind of emotion.

In this kind of atmosphere, Mei came to visit again. This time, she didn’t bring Irene with her. Mei had an amiable smile on her face as she said, “Lisa, I’ve been calling you the past few days. Why didn’t you pick up the phone?”

“I’ve been busy recently,” Lisa said half-heartedly. “I thought Auntie wouldn’t be willing to talk to me because of what happened the last time.”

“How could that be? The kids simply fought a little, it’s a trivial matter,” Mei’s face stiffened. If it weren’t for the fact that the batch of goods had been held up and the company was in urgent need of funds, she wouldn’t have come to look for Lisa so quickly.

However… she was only stalling for time. She wouldn’t let go of Shen Hanxing since she was someone Mei could leech on. Therefore, no matter how displeased she was with Lisa, Mei could only smile.

“It’s great that you can think of it like that, Auntie,” Lisa smiled and asked affectionately, “Why did you come to see me this time, Auntie?”

“Didn’t you say that you were going to visit that foreign trade company?” Mei did not beat about the bush. She looked around and said directly, “I’ve already informed that company. I’m going to take a look today. Do you have time today?”.

‘Already informed them? More like you guys have already reached a consensus on how to lie to me, right?’

Lisa scoffed inwardly, but she put on a smiling and surprised expression. “Really? Then I’ll listen to you, Auntie. But…” she paused for a moment. She said somewhat abashedly, “The companies that I invested in are all managed by Jeongin. I’ll have to bring him with me this time.”

Mei hesitated for a moment. She had investigated Jeongin before. He was a very young man who came back from studying abroad. It was rumored that he had made a name for himself in the financial world, but Mei remained suspicious of people who studied abroad. Everyone knew that the so-called students studying abroad nowadays were mostly lying. There were very few truly talented individuals.

Thinking of this, Mei became less vigilant against Jeongin. She nodded and said, “No problem. Of course, it’s no problem.”

After Lisa changed her clothes, the two of them got into the car and drove to the company. On the other side, Bae Dong was wearing a suit. Without caring about his image, he shouted, “Is everything ready? Over there, put a few more documents and take away things that are not appropriate. Don’t let them suspect us!”

Bae Dong was Irene and Chanyeol’s uncle. He was Mei’s deceased husband’s younger brother. This foreign trade company was currently managed by him. He could be considered Mei’s right-hand man.

“CEO Bae.”

A slightly plump middle-aged man came over. They had been busy since early in the morning and were covered in sweat. “Will this work? Why don’t we move all the things in the company first?”

“There’s no need for that. She’s just a pretty airhead. There’s no need to go through so much trouble. We’ll just deal with it,” Bae Dong smiled disdainfully. “Do you actually expect a little girl who didn’t even graduate from high school to understand our fake accounts?”

“You are right, CEO Bae. I was simply too nervous,” the middle-aged man laughed and relaxed his expression. “I forgot that this kind of rich lady who doesn’t know anything is our money bag. CEO Bae, you’re the best.” “I’m not the best, my good sister-in-law is the one who has these ideas!” Bae Dong scolded with a smile. “Hurry up and switch on the desktop computers. When they come in later, all of you better act well and pretend you’re busy. When we get this money, I’ll give you a bonus!”
