Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star?
Chapter 333: Ah Xi..." (Korean curse word)

Chapter 333: Ah Xi..." (Korean curse word)

Liu Xin’an wasn’t quite sure about the customs of other cities in Huaxia, but for Jincheng, especially his own family’s traditions, although he had never formally brought a girl home, he was still somewhat familiar with certain traditional customs.

The first time he brought a girl home, the parents of the male side usually gave the girl a red packet of no less than 2000 yuan as a meeting gift.

That is, a gift from the elders to the younger generation upon their first meeting.

If there were other elders in the family at that time, they were also expected to contribute to the gift.

Xin’an had heard of a guy from their town who brought home a girlfriend one year and received quite a sum of money from his relatives.

Then the next year, he brought home a new girlfriend.

Fleecing one’s own family; indeed, no one else did such a thing.

Beyond that, aside from the meeting gift, there was another kind of gift.

It’s commonly known as the ’change of address fee.’

Logically, this ’change of address fee’ is usually given during the wedding or engagement, in the presence of both parents.

However, because Park Jinsuk and Liu Zhengjiang were very pleased with their "future" daughter-in-law, and Jinsuk didn’t anticipate returning so soon...

Given how difficult it was for both sets of parents to meet, they decided to give the gift in advance.

So, after the 2000 yuan red packet as the meeting gift, Bae Juhyun received another red packet containing 999 yuan as a ’change of address fee.’

When Juhyun accepted the money, it essentially meant that she could start addressing Xin’an’s parents as Mom and Dad.

However...

She, a Korean, had no clue about these complicated customs!!

Li Chenglu and Xin’an hadn’t really noticed, after all, in their minds, it was common sense.

As for why Juhyun didn’t start calling them Mom and Dad, perhaps she was just shy?

That’s what Xin’an and Chenglu thought, or perhaps that’s what Liu Zhengjiang and Park Jinsuk believed too.

Poor little Juhyun was left in the dark all by herself, even feeling wronged because Jinsuk and Zhengjiang didn’t allow her to change how she addressed them...

"Uh... that was the ’change of address fee,’ accepting it means you’ve agreed to start calling us Mom and Dad."

"Change of address? What address am I changing?"

"...just start calling my parents Mom and Dad. Don’t you have this custom over there?"

Both parties fell silent over the phone for a few seconds.

After a while, Juhyun’s annoyed voice finally rang out.

"Yah! I’ve never dated before, how would I know about this custom, you... why are you only telling me now!"

"I thought you knew."

"Argh..." (Korean expletive)

Ggreat, short-tempered Juhyun was online once again.

But the short-tempered Juhyun was still rational and didn’t completely swear.

She was still managing her image, at least she didn’t want to curse in front of her boyfriend...

"Cough cough, there’s a lot of traffic here, I’m gonna hang up first."

"Yah! Xin’an, you’re trying to run away, aren’t you?"

"Bye-bye, darling~"

"Yah..."

In the gap between traffic lights, Xin’an hit the end call button and then took a deep breath.

Alright, let’s pretend none of this ever happened.

On the other end, Juhyun, who had been hung up on by her boyfriend for the first time after dating for so long, looked at her own photo on the phone screen and laughed speechlessly.

This guy must’ve been truly feeling guilty, or else he wouldn’t be in such a rush to hang up.

"Knock knock knock"

"What’s up?" The knock at the door made Juhyun ask instinctively.

Then the door cracked open, and Kang Seulgi with her hair in a bun and wearing round-frame glasses slowly peeked in.

She had heard that "Argh" from the living room just now.

She was a bit nosy... worried that her sister might be facing something unhappy, she thought to come over and check on Juhyun.

"Sis, what’s going on, I heard you swearing."

"It’s that asshole Xin’an."

"What happened, what happened, did you two have a fight?"

Seulgi’s eyes lit up in an instant, she ran into Juhyun’s bedroom and with a practiced ease jumped onto Juhyun’s bed.

Then, she casually picked up a doll from beside her and hugged it close, her eyes filled with curiosity.

"...are you concerned about me or just curious about what happened?"

"Of course I’m concerned about you, we’re best sisters, we’ve known each other for over ten years, how could I possibly be on his side."

"Well, that’s true, if I find out you’ve been scheming against me behind my back with him, you’re dead, got it?" Juhyun’s mood wasn’t good, and her delicate face was covered with a chill; she waved her dainty little fists symbolically, putting on a fierce front.

But honestly, how could the typically harmless little rabbit appear threatening no matter how fiercely she behaved, enough to scare the perpetually goofy bear?

Well... it actually was effective because indeed, Seulgi was currently scheming against Juhyun with Xin’an behind her back.

But it was a good thing, a surprise, so it didn’t count as scheming!

Right!

"So, what did he do to upset you?"

"...It’s nothing."

The response from Juhyun almost made Seulgi choke with disappointment. She had been looking forward to some juicy gossip, and Juhyun had built up the suspense only to choose to keep it secret.

Wasn’t that a bit too much?

"Tell me, I swear I won’t tell anyone."

"Want to know?"

"Yeah!"

"Swear first."

"Really swear?"

Juhyun leaned back against the headboard, her legs tucked beneath the covers, one hand propping her cheek, watching Seulgi with interest.

Don’t always assume that because Juhyun seems obedient and well-behaved in front of Xin’an, she’s easy to handle; in reality, she’s a true big sister.
