Chapter 36

It was already almost 10pm when Lisa and Jennie separated, but Lisa wanted to visit her wife. A whole day had passed yet she hadn't gone to visit her, even though Jieun probably doesn't want to see her, Lisa still felt that it would be better if she went to meet Jieun.

So, Lisa drove to the hospital alone after getting back to her car.

When she was about to reach Jieun's ward, Lisa's footsteps came to a pause, because she shockingly found out that there were two men in jackets standing by the door.

Lisa could easily determine that the opposite party were soldiers. Based on her instinct, their posture and the way they surveyed their surroundings, she could feel the unique temperament of outstanding soldiers.

What kind of person was in the room? To even have soldiers like that guarding the door?

Lisa felt a bad premonition, she didn't choose to evade them and instead walked towards the door even quicker than before.

"Stop!" A man who stood by the door stretched out his hand to block Lisa's path, "You're not allowed to enter!"

Lisa frivolously smiled and said, "Hey guys, I'm here to visit the patient, there's no need to be so strict. I'm very close to the person inside, if you don't believe me just open the door, and you'll know when she sees me."

The two men still stood their ground with solemn faces, and one peremptorily said, "I said no! So, no!"

"What if I insist?" Lisa's smile immediately faded away, and a cold look took over.

A cold glint flashed through the man's eyes, he grimly laughed and said, "Then you can get lost!"

As he said that, the man lifted his hand wanting to push Lisa away!

Lisa was angered, she grabbed hold of the hand that closed-in on her, exerted some strength on it and directly made the man stumble by dragging his arm. With a *bang* the man crashed into the wall on the opposite side of the corridor!

The other man saw that Lisa had made her move, so he hastily brought out a knife and struck it towards Lisa's head!

Lisa didn't even look, she just moved at a quicker speed, directly smashing her knee against that man's abdomen like a hammer!

The man curled his body like a 'shrimp' and fell onto the ground, puking out all his stomach acids.

In a blink of an eye, the two professional soldiers who were just treating Lisa with disdain, one was dizzy from crashing against the wall, and the other was spasming on the ground. They simply couldn't believe that as a member of the special forces their battle strength was so fragile!

Lisa adjusted her pants, and softly said, "Why would I need to ask for your permission to see my wife? Idiots."

As she said that, she quickly opened the ward's wooden door!

But right at the moment, Lisa's acute senses warned her of an incredibly imposing aura charging at her!

Lisa on instinct moved three inches to the left, with a whistling sound of something tearing through the air, a punch bore through the location he was at a moment ago!

Right at that moment, the fist that missed its target transformed into a claw and closed in on Lisa's neck!

In the narrow space, Lisa's footsteps suddenly drew a weird arc. As she dodged that claw, her body shifted behind the ambusher, she raised hee leg and was about to kick that person's butt!

But the ambusher's reaction speed and agility were also astonishing, in the instant where she about to be hit him, the man quickly leaped away. As one of Lisa's foot landed on the ground, the man performed a sweep kick at Lisa!

Lisa already had an approximate grasp on this person's strength, she confirmed that this person was of no threat, and no longer bothered to dodge. She just lifted up one hand to protect her chest......

With a stifled sound like that of an explosion in the air, that leg was firmly blocked by Lisa. Lisa's body didn't move a single bit.

At this moment, she could finally see how her attacker looked, it was surprisingly an old man who wore a gray chang pao. He had average looks and grizzled hair.

Seeing that it was an old man, Lisa immediately shouted in irritation, "Hey old man, I have no feuds with you, why are you trying to kill me!?"

"Gray Robe, step down."

A thick and dignified voice came from the side close to the bed. The man who stood there looked slightly above fifty.

This man had a large build, he had a courageous face, well-developed muscular body, and jet black hair that was neatly combed to the back of his head. He wore a rarely seen dark-green chinese tunic suit, and his whole body emitted the meticulousness of someone high-ranking with a lofty and cold temperament.

The man addressed as Gray Robe looked strangely at Lisa, but obediently withdrew his leg. He then respectfully retreated to a corner.

Lisa turned around, and finally saw the worried Jieun, who leaned against the bed unscathed.

Wearing a pure-white loose cotton pajamas, her head full of beautiful black hair was exceedingly attractive. She had a natural face with rosy cheeks and no makeup but looked as exquisite as carved jade, which matched well with her smooth skin. She looked extremely tender and beautiful.

Two weeks of being nursed with Chinese medicine made the young beautiful CEO's beauty rise to a more breathtaking level. She was even more stunning than when Lisa first met her.

However, as of this moment, Jieun looked melancholic, as if she doesn't see a thing in front of her. Her eyes were slightly red, as if she had just cried moments ago, she apathetically stared out of the window, with coldness that would evoke pity.

"You, must be Lisa." The man in the chinese tunic suit asked in a deep voice.

Lisa had no idea what was going on, but it was obvious that this man's identity couldn't be low when he had an expert like the old gray-robed man as a subordinate. Lisa nodded, "And you are?"

"I'm Jieun's grandfather, my name is Lee Dong-hwan."

Lee Dong-hwan? Jieun's grandfather!?

Although this man did look rather aged, I didn't expect him to be Jieun's grandfather!

Lisa even remembered that Irene mentioned this person the last time she came by to the hospital, and she had been curious as to whether Jieun actually had a grandfather. She didn't expect to meet him in person today.

"He's not!"

Suddenly, Jieun turned back with red eyes, and stubbornly said to Lisa, "He's not my grandfather, I don't know him. Lisa, drive them away! I don't want to see him!"

This time, Lisa was stupefied. What the hell is going on?

Lee Dong-hwan creased his eyebrows, and there was some sorrow in his eyes, he spoke in a grieved manner, "Jieun, do you hate your grandpa so much? To the point where you wouldn't even let me visit you?"

"I'll say this once more, you're not my grandfather. Also, you've already seen me. You may leave now." Jieun coldly said giving Lee Dong-hwan nary glance.

At this time, Gray Robe who stood at a corner tried to pacify her, "Miss, these years have been hard on Master, he has always been concerned about you. When he heard that you had been hospitalized, he kept worrying about you. Everybody in the family was against Master coming to visit you, but Master still came despite the pressure from them. Miss, please don't blame Master...... Master has his own difficulties......"

Jieun sneered and said, "I didn't ask you to come, did I? Would you people please stop caring about an insignificant brat like me? I do not need your pity."

Lee Dong-hwan's expression changed greatly, he exhaled long and slowly, then nodded and said, "Alright Jieun, since you don't want grandpa to remain here, grandpa will leave. However......" As he said that, Lee Dong-hwan turned to look at Lisa who stood at a side who had a vacant expression of not knowing what to do. He said, "However, you're a part of Lee Family, the most pure and noble, Lee Family's blood flows through your veins, I definitely wouldn't allow you to marry someone who originally sold mutton skewers for a living because of a moment of negligence!"

Lisa was pissed. What the hell is this old man saying? What's wrong with selling mutton skewers? It's not like I'm selling myself as a prostitute...... I sell mutton skewers and I'm proud of it!

But Lisa didn't dare to say these words, they is a family matter after all. She was an outsider and so she could only bear it.

"Based on what? I'll marry who I want to marry! I'm not a part of the Lee Family, I am who I am. Other than this damn surname that I can't change, I don't have a single bit of relation to your Family!" Jieun became agitated, and unleashed her anger.

Lee Dong-hwan's face frosted over, "I don't care whether you accept it or not, you're still a Lee. And as a part of our family, you can only marry to a successful man, and not to a woman who sell mutton skewer and has nothing! Such a joke must not appear in the Lee Family!"

"Joke?" Jieun showed a grim smile that came from the bones, "Is the relationship between you and grandma also a joke?"

"Shut up!" Lee Dong-hwan was angered to the core, like a lion that had his tail stepped on, he raised his hand with the intention of releasing a slap!

However, just as the palm was raised, Lee Dong-hwan trembled all over, and slowly withdrew his hand with a complicated expression, he didn't proceed to slap. He sighed and said, "It was I who let your grandmother down, that's my biggest regret in this lifetime. Which is why I have to take good care of you, I will not let the Lee Family's bloodline mix with someone who sells mutton skewers......"

"It's too late......" Jieun ridiculed with a smile. It was unknown whether she was ridiculing Lee Dong-hwan or ridiculing herself.

Lee Dong-hwan immediately widened his eyes, and looked at Lisa in a way as if he could shoot lightning out of his eyes, with a trembling voice he asked, "You...... what did you say...... you and her? H-How?.."

"What? You didn't expect that Lisa has that thing? She's an intersex. Why do you think I married her otherwise?" Jieun restrained her laughter as she replied with another question.

Lisa who stood at the side felt a little awkward, she wore a naive smile and rubbed her nose. This woman is too much, discussing such a thing in front of her grandfather is so shameful! Doesn't she know that I'm a thin-skinned person?

But the others couldn't smile at all, it wasn't just Lee Dong-hwan, even Gray Robe who stood at the side revealed a shocked expression and took a long time to return to his senses.

Lee Dong-hwan fixed his gaze on Jieun who refused to speak more, then raised his head to glance at Lisa and said, "I never thought that this would happen. However, Lisa, I hope you won't do anything that will hurt Jieun... Otherwise, I won't take things lying down."

Lisa finally heard a decent sentence towards herself, but instead felt a little distressed, "About that...... that has to depend on whether she's willing to let me."

"The Lee Family's iron law, whether male or female, they can only have one mate in their lifetime. You must treat Jieun well, you have no other option!" Lee Dong-hwan resolutely proclaimed.

"__"

"Huh?" Lisa looked at Jieun who maintained her silence, and suddenly understood something in a flash. The true reason this woman married her is revealed, it seems like that contracted marriage matter was just an excuse! Because of some reason she refuses to admit she's part of the Lee Family on the surface, but in actuality she still acts like one...... the way this matter is handled is too contradictory!

Lisa felt incredibly conflicted in her heart, there wasn't just one woman by her side, so she vaguely replied, "That is your family's rule, it has nothing to do with me."

Lee Dong-hwan glared with flames in his eyes and said, "Don't you dare think that I have no way of dealing with you just because you know some kung fu. If you dare do anything to harm Jieun, I'll be the first to come for you!"

Jieun on the bed coldly glanced at Lisa, "Lisa, stop talking, I wan't them out now!"

"You don't need to push me out, I'll leave now."

Lee Dong-hwan stared at Lisa with a profound look, then left the ward along with Gray Robe. The two men who were knocked down on the floor hastily kept up with them while staggering, they didn't want to stay for a moment longer.

All that was left in the room was the couple, they exchanged glances, but the atmosphere between them became rather weird......
