The Crippled Boss's Outstanding Substitute Wife | Book 3

453.I Brought You a Present

Hearing Lisa's words, Yeri instantly felt relieved. A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face as she said softly, "Okay."

Yeri didn't look so annoying when she spoke nicely. She always had a smile on her face. Her voice was sweet and coquettish. Unfortunately, it was all fake. Yeri was mean, sarcastic, and arrogant.

Lisa glanced at Yeri and didn't say anything else. She turned around and left. She didn't notice Yeri wathing her with a complicated gaze. The evilness in her eyes slowly turned into a kind of determination. In this world, she could only rely on herself. She could trust no one else.

When Lisa returned home, the living room was bustling with noise. Tzuyu had just returned from her overseas performance and couldn't wait to share the souvenirs. Jieun was happily chattering away while Yeonjun sat on the sofa with a smile on his face. When they heard the door opening, they looked over.

"Sister-in-law!" Tzuyu's face flushed red as she ran toward Lisa with a smile. She asked, "Sister-in-law, you're here! Are you tired?" She took Lisa's coat and hung it. Then, she looked at Lisa eagerly. Wherever Lisa went, she would follow. She hadn't seen her sister-in-law for a few days. Although they had video chat every day, Tzuyu felt lonely. Now that they could finally meet, she followed Lisa around and sat beside her.

!!

Jieun saw this scene and wanted to say something. However, she didn't say it out in the end. Forget it. Since Tzuyu had just returned from her trip and brought her a present, she wouldn't snatch sister-in-law from Tzuyu today.

Tzuyu knew Jieun's thoughts, so she leaned over to Lisa's side and smiled contentedly. "Sister-in-law, do you want some water?"

"I'm not tired. It's okay." Lisa answered Tzuyu's question and asked gently while rubbing her head, "When did you come back? How was the concert?"

"I just came back a little earlier than you did. The concert went very smoothly. Teacher praised me too." Tzuyu reported her progress like a primary school student. Then, her eyes widened as she suddenly thought of something. "Oh, I brought something for you." After she said that, she rushed to get her suitcase and took out a beautifully wrapped box, then another... and another... She took out seven to eight boxes in a row. Then, she hugged them in her arms and walked towards Lisa. Her little face was flushed with shyness. "These are all presents for you."

"Tzuyu, did you buy everything from the shopping mall?" Jieun was initially quite happy to receive a gift, but when she saw the pile of gifts in Tzuyu's arms, she lost her composure. She couldn't help but blurt out, "Who on earth would buy so many gifts?"

Lisa was a little stunned as well. Tzuyu's tiny arms were trembling as she held the gifts. So, Lisa quickly stood up to take the boxes. She felt speechless. "Your sincerity is all that matters. Why did you buy so many of them? Do you have enough pocket money?" These gifts looked pricy. She probably had burnt a hole in the wallet.

"Yes, I still have a lot." Tzuyu smiled shyly. She had been kidnapped earlier on and only returned to the Jeon family a few years ago. Tzuyu's father had not been a good father. He had never paid much attention to his children. In fact, he didn't pay as much attention to them as Jungkook did. To Father Jeon, all he had to do was to give them money. Therefore, his way of compensating Tzuyu's sufferings was to give her money. He gave Tzuyu money to comfort her past suffering, as well as the money for shopping over the years.

In the past, Tzuyu didn't dare to go out and locked herself in her room, so she barely used the money at all. Money was not very important to her. But now, she felt so happy to be able to buy gifts for people she cared about.

Tzuyu smiled and picked up a gift. Then, she passed it to Lisa as she explained, "I just happened to see something nice and wanted to get it for you. I didn't expect to buy so many of them eventually."
