Jennie is seriously injured!

After the media received the news of Jennie's injury, they rushed over to the hospital in the middle of the night.

Lisa followed the doctor's advice and wheeled Jennie out of the hospital in a wheelchair. After capturing photos of Jennie's condition, the media finally realized Jennie had been enduring her pain through the entire ceremony.

Apart from taking photos from a safe distance, the reporters were too afraid to get close to Lisa, let alone Jennie who was under his protection.

Only after the two boarded the manager's van, did Jisoo face the media, "Thank you for everyone's concern, but Jennie needs some time to recover."

The reporters wanted to get more goss from their mouths, but...

...they remembered Lisa was Jennie's manager.

So, even though they wanted to tail their van, they held back because of the warning Lisa had given them the day before.

Since they couldn't dig up any new dirt, they only had one other option, to dig up old dirt!

The media looked as far back as the Crown's Star Show and exhausted all their efforts to piece together every little bit of information they could find on the two. However, they couldn't come to a conclusion.

If Jennie had Lisa backing her from such a long time ago, she couldn't have possibly suffered all the huge ups and downs she had been through. So, even if they found information, it didn't mean anything.

Of course, not finding information early on, didn't mean they wouldn't find anything later.

For example, the media took Lisa's back and compared it side-by-side to the man in LM's commercial. In the end, everyone was shocked to find, Lisa had a 90% chance of being the 'back-view dream man'...

During the Lim Jae-beom incident, this was the man that had helped Jennie pull through a tough time.

Afterwards, when Jennie went on Feng Cai, she had said that she was already married and was married to the most powerful man in the industry!

The reporters dug deep into their information for the truth, but...

...even when they put all the information that had surfaced overnight together, no one could give a definitive conclusion.

Meanwhile, a few reporters also found out from insiders that Lisa had secretly helped Jennie on various occasions.

On top of that, there were rumors that Lisa was impressed by Jennie's professionalism.

But, the most hidden piece of information they managed to dig up was that both Lisa and Jennie lived in Hyatt Regency!

In an instant, everyone was consumed in guessing the relationship between Jennie and Lisa.

Some people felt things weren't as complicated as they appeared; Jennie simply jumped over obstacles and advanced forward gaining Lisa's approval.

On the other hand, some people felt Lisa and Jennie knew each other from the start and Lisa had helped Jennie get to where she was today.

And then there were people that assumed Jennie had used an indecent exchange of her own body to climb to where she was.

But no matter what they thought, there were too many logically unexplainable points, because Jennie's every action was simply to prove herself.

Like this, a person originally viewed as being aloof from the world, was suddenly surrounded with an air of mystery. The public were more focused on being curious about Jennie than judging her because she contained too many secrets...

"The result is exactly how President anticipated. The public's curiosity towards Jennie has indeed almost reached a point of insanity," Minho couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the public's feedback data.

Jisoo received the data from Minho, had a quick look and nodded his head, "Right now I am more interested in who the culprit behind madam's fall was."

"Do you think they will step out and confess?"

"They better confess. Otherwise, no one will be able to anticipate what the consequences are," Jisoo replied seriously as he leaned against the office table.

Minho understood what Jisoo meant, because...

...to the outside world, Lisa was indeed aggressive. But, he could not hide the fact that he doted his wife more than anything.

"Since we're talking about it, after seeing the love between President and Jennie, haven't you wanted to be in love yourself?" Minho  asked as he sat in the office chair swinging his legs. "Isn't there a single person you are interested in?"

Jisoo turned around and looked at a painting on the wall.

"Your reaction obviously means there is."

"I'm not sure," Jisoo shook his head, "I don't know what is considered as interested in someone."

"Brother, with an EQ like yours, how have you managed to stay alive?" Minho couldn't comprehend. He stood up, approached Jisoo and continued, "Your words tell me you already have someone in mind...it's just you're not certain about your feelings, am I right?"

"Uh huh," Jisoo lowered his head. "Actually, I'm not that interested in women; I find them too troublesome. Even if it's a woman that is smart like madam, I still find them tiring. You can tell just by looking at President."

"However, there is one particular person that is different...While I'm giving everyone the red light, I can't help giving her the green light. I sometimes wonder whether it's because she is really nice to me."

Minho analyzed Jisoo's expression, especially his eyes. He realized he was honestly confused and burst out laughing, "In that case, do you like the way you interact?"

Jisoo froze for a moment before nodding his head, "I'm not disgusted by it. I find it quite comfortable, actually."

"Isn't that all that matters? Just continue the way you're going..." Minho encouraged.

If he was to continue dwelling on whether Jisoo was interested or not, it seemed he would only scare him off.

People with low EQ was easily scared.

Since the woman he was referring to also treated him nice, it was obvious she was interested in him. So, he decided to let this dopey block of wood continue enjoying the feelings of ambiguity. The feeling of having one's heart awakened, wasn't something everyone could experience.

Jisoo remained silent for a moment before nodding his head, "I'll get going then..."

"Yes, hurry and leave. Did you think I have a lot of spare time?" Minho pushed him out, pretending to be annoyed.

Although Jisoo left Minho's office...his mind was still thinking about the question Minho asked. Actually, his parents had pestered him about getting married, but he had always felt women were too much trouble.

Perhaps as he thought about this person, his heart was sending out signals, because at this moment, a phone call arrived from Rosé. Jisoo furrowed his brows but still pressed the answer button, "What is it?"

"Haha, I heard that Qin Yu is so scared she hasn't taken a step out of her front door...right now she is contemplating whether to step out and confess."

"Did you call just to tell me that?"

Rosé froze for a moment. She realized Jisoo's voice sounded a bit abnormal, "Are you busy with something? Don't we normally talk about stuff like this?"

Jisoo did not respond...

"If it's inconvenient, I won't talk to you about this stuff from now on. It's just, I have no one to talk to..." After speaking, Rosé wanted to hang up the phone, but Jisoo suddenly said, "No, it's not inconvenient."

"Huh?" Rosé suddenly felt like she was floating on air.

"I said, it's not inconvenient. If you want to call me, then call," Jisoo repeated himself.

Rosé's heart was blooming with joy. As long as she could prove that she was at least a tiny bit special in his heart, she was satisfied.
