Chapter 70 - "I know. It wasn't you who said it." (3)

Mu Sehun gave her a look and looked outside of the
window. "I don't know what kind of spell you have
used on Mu Jungkook. He didn't even blame you after he heard our conversation, but.."

He turned around and stared at her viciously.

"There are enough people fighting over the Mu's fortunebalready. I am not going to let you be a part of it."

Xu Lisa played with the tip of her hair before
she pinched another strawberry and plopped it
inside of her mouth. She waved her hand and said,
her voice slightly muffled, "Look at yourself right
now. I don't think it'd matter to you how many are
there fighting over the mu's fortune."

She casually strolled out of his room and heard a
noise made by a strawberry hitting the door.

It'd seem like the weakling back in the room was
angered by her.

Right then, Mu Jungkook also came back inside after he has finished his cigarette and ran into her in the hallway.

His lips curving slightly upward, he glanced over at
Mu Sehun's room and asked her in a low voice, "All
taken care of?"

"Yup, all taken care of." Xu Lisa turned around
and gave it a look. "He will be the bouncy Second
Young Master Mu again in a few days."

"If you can take care of it yourself, why did you
bother with the whole traditional doctor spiel in front of the old madam?" He walked in front of her in a few steps and stroked her on her cheeks with his hand that still smelled like his cigarette - a scene that looked like the two of them were madly in love with each other from the eyes of an outsider. "Lili,
what are you trying to pull here?"

"To appease the old madam, of course." Xu Lisa
looked up and met his piercing eyes. "Mr. Mu, I trust
that you wouldn't want a second or a third Liang Yeri, right?"

Mu Jungkook snickered and said, "So? Where are you going to find this traditional doctor from?"

"I'm in the entertainment circle." She reached out her
little hand and gently stroke over his knuckles that
was stroking her cheek. "We have no shortage of
actors in my circle."

Mu Jungkook flipped his hand around, grabbed hers, and held ittightly in his. She could immediately feel a sense of warmth covering the back of her hand.

"The old madam is not an old lady who could be
fooled easily. She would know he's an actor."

"That is the whole purpose." Xu Lisa winked at
him. "Don't worry. I have my ways with old people.
Mr. Mu needs only to focus on his business."

Xu Lisa looked up and it was the super gossipy
Aunt Hu , She had on her apron and held a spatula in her hand as though she worried that others wouldn't know that she was hard at work. She walked over quickly and said, "You let as soon as you were done eating. You could at least help us elderly to clean up some. That's exactly why the old madam doesn't like you."

Mu Jungkook gave her a look and said, "Why does the guest need to help clean up? What do we hire all the servants for then? To laze around like you?"

Aunt Hu shook her head, "What are you talking about, Young Master. The old madam will be displeased again has she heard this. She'd say you are going against your family for this little goblin."

Mu Jungkook was just about to say something else
before Xu Lisa tugged at him.

Her palm was soft and her grab and pull felt like she was whining to him. He stopped himself from saying what he had wanted to say.

"It's just wiping down the table and doing the dishes.
I'll go take care of them," said Xu Lisa as she
purposefully straightened out Mu Jungkook's collar
and stood on her tip toes as though she was about to
give him a kiss. In reality, she whispered into his ear,
"Don't worry, I also have my ways with middle-aged
woman who didn't know her place."
