Chapter 222: 190. JYP (Thanks to Book Friend 7003 for the Alliance Hierarch’s reward! 3/4)

Having woken up from his afternoon nap, Liu Xin’an immediately got out of bed to search for Bae Juhyun upon noticing that the familiar figure was no longer by his side.

If she wasn’t in the room, she had probably woken up and gone downstairs on her own.

So he didn’t stay in bed any longer; instead, he tidied up his hair a bit and yawned as he walked out of the bedroom.

However, halfway down the stairs, seeing Bae Juhyun sitting at the mahjong table with a serious expression, Liu Xin’an felt as if he were dreaming.

The beloved mega-star with millions of fans around the world, the leader of the famous Korean group Red Velvet, known for their ’godly beauty,’ miss Bae Juhyun was now sitting seriously at a mahjong table, fully concentrated.

This astonishing scene left Liu Xin’an dumbfounded, and he even doubted his own eyes, rubbing them to make sure he was not hallucinating.

But his conclusion was disappointing.

The woman sitting next to Li Chenglu, with a solemn expression yet still beautiful, was indeed his girlfriend.

But...

This was just too strange, wasn’t it?

No matter how he thought about it, he just couldn’t associate "Bae Juhyun" with "mahjong"!

Witnessing this dimension-breaking scene unfold before his very eyes, Liu Xin’an mulled over it for a long time, ultimately giving up on the idea of capturing the moment with a photo.

It was too absurd, the kind of image that if posted online would be teased as ’completely free of Photoshop.’

What also puzzled Liu Xin’an was that none of the people at the table seemed to notice his descent down the stairs.

Everyone was fixated on the mahjong table, faces full of solemnity.

It turned out that once someone at the table had a desire to win, what originally was a game meant to pass the time instantly turned into a battlefield.

"Mahjong! All clean with a straight dragon, come on, ten bucks per person!"

In the end, the smokeless battle was concluded with his own mother’s excited voice.

A frustrated Bae Juhyun pulled out a ten-dollar bill, handed it to Park Jinsuk, and then looked regretfully at the tiles in front of her.

"Oh... just one tile short, that’s really a pity," Liu Xin’an suddenly spoke up, startling her. She instinctively turned around and revealed a surprised smile upon seeing her boyfriend.

"You’re up?"

"Yeah... But how come you are playing mahjong with my mom and the others? Do you even know how to play?"

"Who do you think you’re looking down on? Juhyun is way better at playing than you are. Let’s continue tonight; it’s much more fun to play with people who know how to play!"

Park Jinsuk was extremely satisfied with her mahjong partner, and this success was thanks to Bae Juhyun’s competitive spirit inadvertently tuning in to Park Jinsuk’s brainwaves.

If Juhyun had been playing carelessly, just to entertain Park Jinsuk, she would have felt dissatisfied instead.

On the contrary, a serious game and the joy of a swift victory brought great satisfaction to Park Jinsuk.

Of course, the fact that she won quite some money could not be ignored either.

Bae Juhyun paid quite a bit in tuition fees, so hearing Park Jinsuk’s invitation, she nodded vigorously.

"Okay, let’s continue tonight!"

"None of you are leaving tonight; watch me win you all dry," Park Jinsuk asserted with excitement.

In contrast to Jinsuk’s eager demeanor, Wu Xiu was far more resigned.

She neither lost nor won, while Li Chenglu ended up losing quite a bit.

It was as if all her luck was drained away the moment Bae Juhyun took her seat.

Ever since that ’straight dragon,’ Chenglu hadn’t won a single hand.

"Playing is fine, but I need to change my seat."

"Don’t believe in those superstitions; if you’re having bad luck, you’re just having bad luck, Chenglu. You can’t be a sore loser."

"How could I be?!"

"Alright, alright, let’s take a break. We need to prepare dinner, Xin’an, call your dad and godfather to help."

"Oh, okay."

Liu Xin’an headed towards the doorway. It was indeed time to start preparing the year-end dinner, but before he left, he looked back at Bae Juhyun with concern.

If he went out, wouldn’t that mean leaving Bae Juhyun by herself?

Could this easily anxious person be alright?

Actually, there was no need to worry about that at all. After all, is there anything better than a mahjong table to bring people closer together?

Bae Juhyun gave Liu Xin’an a reassuring smile, then stood up eagerly, "Auntie, can I help with anything?"

"You can cook?"

"Just the basics, but I can still be of some help," Juhyun replied.

"Then let’s do it together," Park Jinsuk said.

When Bae Juhyun bowed deeply to her with sincere respect, Park Jinsuk had already accepted the young girl.

Now that she was accepted, being ceremonious would only be a form of estrangement towards Bae Juhyun.

Being family, she should just come in and help out honestly; Bae Juhyun was no longer a guest in the Liu family, she was family.

However, once everything was ready and the dinner table was set with an even more luxurious feast than at noon, Bae Juhyun decided not to send photos to her sisters.

If she sent them, she felt Kang Seulgi and the others might just take time off and rush over.

It was a bit too provoking!

If the lunch table had left her dumbfounded, then this proper year-end dinner completely crushed her midday perceptions.

The lavishness of this dinner made Bae Juhyun suspect that more guests would be arriving in the evening.

No matter how she thought about it, she couldn’t believe that seven people, including the two families and herself, could finish all the food.

In the end, she didn’t actually help much, mostly just slicing some cooked food and arranging it on plates... hmm, the soy sauce beef was really delicious. After cutting it, Park Jinsuk let her have a piece early, and she almost bit her tongue off because it was so tasty.
