Chapter 327: 234. The old father’s unease (Thanks to Irene baebae for the reward! 1.2/4)

Mom’s efficiency exceeded Liu Xin’an’s expectations. Despite his own lack of time, he still needed to drive to pick up Dad, who was coming from China.

Mom didn’t come because Dad hadn’t told her when he’d be arriving.

This meant...

"What do you want to ask?"

It was obvious, Dad definitely had something to ask him, which was why he came over suddenly.

And what Dad wanted to ask was probably related to his uncle.

"What kind of person is your uncle?"

Liu Xin’an suddenly laughed, noticing a trace of panic in the typically composed man in the passenger seat.

Dad was likely worried about what his brother-in-law thought of him. After all, this was Dad’s first time dealing with this sort of situation.

He had never met Mom’s family before. In thirty years of marriage, this was Dad’s first proper interaction with Mom’s relatives.

It would be strange if he wasn’t nervous.

"Are you nervous?"

Seeing Dad like this was rare, and Liu Xin’an couldn’t resist teasing him.

"Nervous? Me?"

"Your hands are shaking."

"Ahem, how about we go to your place first? Take a day off from live streaming today."

Liu Xin’an looked troubled. Picking up Dad early in the morning had already cut into his time for making stone clay gifts for Bae Juhyun, and now this...

Wait, if he took a day off streaming, wouldn’t he have more time to prepare gifts for Bae Juhyun?

This deal was totally worth it! He had plenty of streaming hours left for the month anyway, so taking a day or two off wasn’t a big deal.

Liu Xin’an had forgotten he had already taken a day off that month.

It was the day he went on a date with Bae Juhyun.

Of course, if he was going to take time off, he couldn’t do it for nothing.

"I’ve already promised my viewers..."

He gripped the steering wheel, looking troubled.

Then his dad shot him a stern glance, and Liu Xin’an’s expression changed to a cheerful one.

"Alright, today we’ll enjoy some father-son time. I’ll take you to try some local specialties, proper Korean bibimbap. You haven’t tried it, have you?"

"Is it good?"

"No different from what Mom makes."

At those words, Liu Zhengjiang grimaced and made a face of disdain.

It wasn’t that he had anything against bibimbap; it was just that his wife loved making it way too much.

Especially when they first met, when he didn’t speak Korean and she didn’t speak Chinese or English. They communicated through gestures, and somehow, Park Jinsuk had made bibimbap with leftovers from home.

Honestly, the dining atmosphere was great, especially with Park Jinsuk expectantly watching him with big eyes back then.

But the taste...

Even though Park Jinsuk had later made many delicious bibimbaps, that first one left a lasting impression on Liu Zhengjiang.

"Just get something simple. Is Juhyun busy?"

"Yeah... busy."

"Did you tell her I was coming today?"

"No."

Liu Zhengjiang was stunned and turned to look at his son.

Perhaps because Liu Xin’an was in a relationship now, Liu Zhengjiang felt his son had matured a bit.

But... maturity only went so far.

"Have you thought about how Juhyun would feel if she found out you didn’t tell her about me coming?"

"...If I tell her, she’d definitely come over to meet you with me."

"That’s her choice. Not telling her is on you."

Dad’s calm response left Liu Xin’an stunned.

After a few seconds of contemplation, Liu Xin’an took out his phone and took a deep breath.

"I’ll make a call."

"Alright."

In the Red Velvet dorm, the vibrating phone on the sofa caught Kang Seulgi’s attention as she ate breakfast. She glanced at the screen and saw "Liu Xin’an," raising an eyebrow.

She picked up Bae Juhyun’s phone but hesitated to answer it. Instead, she walked to the bathroom door and knocked lightly.

"Juhyun-unnie, your boyfriend’s calling you."

A few seconds later, the sound of running water ceased, and the bathroom door opened slightly, revealing a wet, pale arm.

"Give me the phone."

"Wow, really? Can’t you call him back after your shower?"

"Give me the phone."

Kang Seulgi shrugged and handed the phone to Bae Juhyun.

With a "bang," the door closed, and Kang Seulgi leaned against it.

"What are you doing? Acting like a pervert." Son Seungwan yawned as she exited her room and asked curiously upon seeing Kang Seulgi’s odd behavior.

Kang Seulgi was embarrassed and, feigning nonchalance, walked back to the sofa with a gossipy tone, "Liu Xin’an called Juhyun-unnie. I’m a bit curious about what they’re talking about."

"Lame, that’s their privacy!"

Son Seungwan looked disdainful, but just then, Bae Juhyun, wrapped in a towel and with wet hair, burst out of the bathroom.

"What did he say? What did Liu Xin’an say?" Son Seungwan asked eagerly, while Kang Seulgi, sitting on the other side of the sofa, looked at her with confusion.

Wasn’t she just calling me lame??

Where did she get the nerve?

"I have to go. Liu Xin’an’s dad is here. That idiot only told me now!"
