Kim Ji-yeon and Suk Min-soo each took one side, and Alice sat alone on the single sofa opposite.

Among the four parties, the calmest one is the person involved, Li Zhenyu.

The three women were competing with each other with their eyes, and he had nothing to do with it at all.

It’s not that the women can’t figure out who is the culprit and who caused all this.

Bastard, son of a bitch, a playboy...

But no one was willing to admit defeat and left first.

This man's charm and value are worth them putting aside their reserve and pride.

The more harshly the women cursed in their hearts, the more elegantly they acted.

While exchanging eye contact, he tasted the coffee in his hand with an elegant posture and a calm and open-minded look.

Elegant, so elegant! Until the doorbell rang again: "Ding Dong!" Li Zhenyu looked helpless and murmured: "Is it over yet? There is no room for me to sit down. I really can't sit down."

"Why are you in such a hurry? You should be proud."

Alice held her coffee and looked around.

“Seven women are spending Christmas Eve with you… oh, I forgot to include the newcomer, it should be eight.

"Eight women surrounding a man like you, isn't that a very prestigious thing?

Zhenyu, you are so amazing."

“……”Li Zhenyu.

What can he say? "Yeah, that really makes me awesome."

This cannot be called arrogance, it's simply a slap in the face.

It’s too much.

So, Li Zhenyu chose to change the subject, got up and walked towards the kitchen.

"Paula, what are we having for dinner tonight? Are there enough ingredients?"

Watching him escape into the kitchen, Alice, who was filled with anger, could only feel helpless.

The next second, she heard a familiar voice.

"Uncle, I'm here."

Liu Meina, wearing a JK skirt and medium-length black cotton socks, walked out of the entrance carrying a gift.

When he saw the three women sitting in the room, his expression froze instantly.

"Mom, why are you here?"

Alice Lee was also dumbfounded, 'Why is she here? Didn't she say she was going to spend Christmas in the Snow Country?'

'What is her relationship with Li Zhenyu? No, definitely not.'

Alice, who was calm and confident, was completely panicked at this moment.

He looked at Liu Meina with an uneasy and evasive look, and lowered his head to drink his coffee in a daze.

"Ah, it's Mina."

Li Zhenyu leaned back and stuck his head out from the corridor, took a look, and then retracted it in an instant.

Shit, this is really a big deal.

This is not a matter of capsizing the boat, it's clearly a nuclear bomb dropped on the boat.

Self-destruct on the spot...

"Agassi, why is she here?"

Finding that something was wrong with Alice, Mina hurriedly chased into the kitchen, hoping to get an answer from him.

She was a smart girl, and Alice's uneasy and panicked expression made her vaguely aware of something.

"Who?" Li Zhenyu put on a confused expression and took a few steps back to look towards the living room.

"Anyone you know?"

Liu Meina was in a state of absurdity and panic, and did not notice the helplessness in his eyes.

It’s really not his fault. Who would have thought that they were mother and daughter?

Li Zhenyu also discovered this after getting on board, but who would believe him if he said so?

"Alice...she's my mom."

“Eh?”

Li Zhenyu was shocked and asked, "Are you the daughter who gave her a headache and is studying in the United States?"

Hearing the impression she made on herself, Liu Meina felt a surge of anger in her heart.

Hey, what do you want me to do to satisfy you? "We have business dealings, and the artist under our company is the LG brand ambassador."

Naturally, he would not think about why Alice, his business partner, would appear in his house on Christmas Eve.

"Mina, come with me."

Alice in Caning stood up. She needed to have a good talk with her daughter.

A place where there was no one else but the two of them, mother and daughter.

Liu Mina was taken away by Alice, leaving Shu Minxiu and Jin Zhiyan looking at each other in bewilderment.

The two of them knew the truth, but neither of them was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

"I just found out about the relationship between them."

Li Zhenyu put the washed fruits on a plate and brought it to the coffee table.

"Um."

Jin Zhiyan had a serious expression and said seriously: "Occasionally, such misunderstandings do happen."

"That's right, just explain it clearly." Shu Minxiu nodded in agreement and put a piece of watermelon into her mouth.

"I'm telling the truth."

This time Li Zhenyu did not lie, he did tell the truth later.

But by that time, it was too late to explain.

He could only pretend to be confused and act as if nothing had happened.

Jin Zhiyan picked up the fork, looked at the fruit plate and asked, "Today is Christmas Eve, no apples?"

"some…"

Park Sun-young stood in front of the bedroom corridor, holding two peace apple gift boxes in her raised hands.

Tonight, she really prepared carefully.

A Christmas miniskirt, black stockings, sequined high heels, and a peace apple gift box with a thoughtful little gift inside.

It can be said that he was full of sincerity, but it was a pity that the timing was not right.

"That... I also brought it."

Lee Joo Bin came out of the kitchen, also holding an apple gift box of the same style.

Han Suxi, who was beside her, timidly raised her own and said, "Me too..."

Seeing the girls' careful preparations, Kim Ji-yeon suddenly had the illusion of being "old".

Compared with them, my performance was too perfunctory and I lost the seriousness that I took towards love when I was young.

This feeling only lasted for a few seconds before Kim Ji-yeon focused her attention on what was in front of her.

Now that the toughest opponent is gone, the next step is naturally her home court.

There are quite a few people coming today, and Kim Ji-yeon is not sure if it is all of them, but this does not hinder her determination to declare sovereignty.

"Zhenyu, the kids must be hungry, let's eat!"

Kim Ji-yeon acted like a hostess and announced the start of dinner.

Kim Bora looked at the president and seeing that he didn't say anything, she indicated that dinner was ready.

Lee Joo Bin and Han So Hee, who are called 'kids', behaved very well today.

They are both very young, so it’s okay to just let them be children.

But Suk Min-soo and Park Sun-young were not feeling so comfortable.

Both of them are about the same age as Kim Ji-yeon, and Park Sun-young may be even older.

Even if you have a prominent family background, you should still have basic manners.

Besides, we are all his women, why should you be special?

What is there for a divorced woman to be proud of?

Park Sun-young did not say these words out loud, but her subsequent actions and expressions undoubtedly explained it.

He first ignored Kim Ji-yeon at the dinner table, and then got closer to other people.

Finally, Kim Ji-yeon was isolated.

Park Sun-young is obviously well versed in this. It can be said that South Korean girls are born with the ability to flirt with women and fight in the palace.

But she obviously underestimated Kim Ji-yeon.

As the daughter of a chaebol family, she has lived in the shadows since childhood and has been required to possess superb acting skills since childhood.

In her eyes, Park Sun-young's tricks are just cute.
