Chapter 328: 234. The old father’s unease (Thanks to Irene baebae for the reward! 1.2/4)_2
My boyfriend’s father coming over is definitely a big deal. Liu Xin’an, that jerk, waited until his dad got here to tell me. I was fuming.
"Huh? Why is he telling you now?"
"How should I know? It’s so annoying. I’ll come over this afternoon. You guys come up with some excuse to cover for me."
"Oh, okay..."
Bae Juhyun rushed back to her bedroom in a flurry. In less than half an hour, she came out with her hair curled and makeup done.
She plopped down next to Kang Seulgi, handed her the hairdryer, and passed her long hair to her friend.
"Seulgi, it’s all yours."
"Got it."
"How can I help?"
Bae Juhyun glanced at the eager Son Seungwan and, after a moment of silence, said, "Sing a song."
Son Seungwan: ???
——
"Ding dong~"
"Oh? Who is it?"
Liu Xin’an stood up in confusion and walked toward the door.
Bae Juhyun usually came in directly without ringing the doorbell. Could it be...
"...that fast?"
Sure enough, standing at his front door was the exquisitely made-up, long-haired, breathtakingly beautiful Bae Juhyun.
Although his girlfriend was not in a good mood at the moment.
She glared at Liu Xin’an and muttered under her breath, "I’ll deal with you later."
Liu Xin’an started to sweat bullets. His dad was right; he hadn’t thought this through. He’d been so focused on not disturbing his girlfriend’s work that he failed to consider Bae Juhyun’s feelings.
In the end, this was something Bae Juhyun had to decide for herself. He had no right to make decisions for her.
"I’m sorry." Realizing his mistake, Liu Xin’an apologized sincerely, which softened Bae Juhyun’s expression considerably.
She patted her face, put on a sweet smile, quickly changed into indoor slippers, and entered the house, giving a big bow to the man smiling at her from the sofa.
"Hello, Uncle. I’m sorry I didn’t go to the airport with Xin’an to pick you up. I’m really very sorry..."
"No need to apologize. This boy didn’t tell you, but even if you hadn’t come, there’s no need to apologize. We’re family; no need for formalities. It’s good to stay busy."
That word "family" nearly brought Bae Juhyun to tears. Honestly, she always knew Park Jinsuk considered her a daughter-in-law. During her days in China and on the day of her arrival, she felt Jinsuk’s care and love.
But her boyfriend’s dad... she had always been a bit scared to get close to him.
Maybe it was the aura of authority he exuded that made her instinctively fear this gentle-smiling man.
But now, his words "we’re family" really moved her.
"Mm."
She responded, sitting obediently on the sofa, then signaled Liu Xin’an, who looked a bit awkward, to come over and sit as well.
Once Liu Xin’an sat down, Bae Juhyun curiously looked at Liu Zhengjiang.
"Uncle, did you come this time for Auntie and Mr. Park Jinyoung?"
"Mr... ah, Park Jinyoung was an artist before, and now he’s the owner of a management company, right?"
"Yes."
"Right, I came over mainly to meet him and have a meal together. Are you free tonight?"
"Yes! I am free!"
"Dad, don’t ask her to come along. If the media finds out she met Uncle, it will cause her a lot of trouble."
Liu Xin’an spoke up to stop him. He understood his dad’s intentions. Although he was happy that his dad considered Bae Juhyun family and invited her to dinner, her relationship with his uncle was too delicate.
"Oh, that’s true. I oversimplified things." Liu Zhengjiang nodded, understanding the need to avoid any potential problems.
He also knew Liu Xin’an would stop him. He said this more to show his attitude.
He wanted Bae Juhyun to know he didn’t see her as an outsider. As an old "fox" in the workplace, he clearly saw how nervous and uneasy she was around him.
If a few words could bring him closer to Bae Juhyun, he was more than willing to say them.
"I will be careful. I won’t be discovered." Bae Juhyun nervously bit her lip and spoke cautiously.
"Better safe than sorry. If there’s a way to avoid any possibility, don’t take risks."
This time, Bae Juhyun had no response. She knew now where her boyfriend got his overly cautious nature from.
It seemed to run in the family.
Seeing Bae Juhyun’s disappointment, Liu Zhengjiang thought for a few seconds, then gave her a warm smile.
"When we go to China in the future, there will be plenty of chances to have a meal together. Don’t feel bad; none of us see you as an outsider."
"Mm! I know, Uncle. It’s just that since you invited me, I feel a bit disappointed I can’t go..."
"Alright, Xin’an said you have work today. Don’t let me delay your work. If you need to be busy, go ahead. Just let Xin’an take me there."
"I can stay for a while. It’s fine!"
"Right, and Dad, if you want to know more about Uncle, Juhyun probably has more information."
Liu Zhengjiang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and looked at Bae Juhyun, "It won’t affect your work?"
"Not at all. I’m just preparing for a new song now, so taking half a day off is fine."
"That’s good, that’s good."
Liu Zhengjiang was actually more curious about Park Jinyoung as a person.
He’d heard things, but honestly... for someone his age to start using a computer to look up information on Park Jinyoung, it was really a bit tough.
