Chapter 555: 310. Future mother-in-law’s concerns
"I’ve already finished renewing the contract, so you don’t have to worry too much about work, Mom and Dad,"
Wearing a light purple nightgown, Bae Juhyun, with a bare face, chatted with her parents on the phone with a smile.
Koreans generally go to bed late, so after more than two hours of madness, Bae Juhyun, having washed up, didn’t forget to share the good news with her parents.
"Alright, but Juhyun, where are you right now?"
Bae Juhyun often communicated and chatted with her parents from a hotel, as this was her first proper job in nearly a year, and her family was very concerned about her condition.
Obviously, Bae Juhyun’s parents, who had been in touch with her all along, sharply noticed the change in the environment where Juhyun was.
It was nearly midnight in China and almost 1 am in Korea. At this hour, Bae Juhyun... wasn’t in her own hotel room?
The puzzled inquiry from her parents didn’t make Bae Juhyun show any embarrassed expression.
She was thirty years old, and Liu Xin’an had visited her home, so it wasn’t something that needed to be hidden.
"I’m at Xin’an’s home, Liu Xin’an~"
Bae Juhyun answered her parents’ confusion, and while her father’s expression turned sour, she called out the man’s name.
After more than two hours, Liu Xin’an was clearly well-fed.
And Bae Juhyun, having been taken advantage of, naturally made her own request.
She had been so cooperative, so it wasn’t excessive at all to ask Liu Xin’an to prepare some late-night snacks, right?
Well, of course, she wasn’t the type of woman with a nasty personality, so it wasn’t realistic to ask Liu Xin’an to prepare a full meal at this time, so she merely asked Liu Xin’an to prepare ramen, or instant noodles as commonly called here.
As for eating ramen at this time, whether her face would be swollen tomorrow... well, there was no filming plan for tomorrow, so let it swell~
Hurried footsteps sounded, and Liu Xin’an, bare-chested with chopsticks in hand, appeared at the door.
He looked anxiously at Bae Juhyun, and sensing that he seemed to want to say something, Juhyun quickly spoke.
"I’m video calling my parents, aren’t you coming over to say hello?"
This news numbed Liu Xin’an completely.
He was in the middle of boiling water; how did it suddenly become...meeting the parents time?
And besides, he was still shirtless!
Hurriedly putting on a loose nightgown, Liu Xin’an joined Bae Juhyun with a look of wanting to cry but having no tears.
His awkward smile contrasted with Juhyun’s face brimming with happiness, and similarly, the sour face of Bae Juhyun’s father contrasted with her mother’s smile on the screen.
Obviously, Juhyun’s father was somewhat dissatisfied with the two of them being together at this hour.
"Uncle, auntie, long time no see."
"Oh! Xin’an, how have you been recently? We’ve seen the videos of you and Juhyun together; you two are a great match!"
The amount of information in Bae Juhyun’s mother’s words caused Liu Xin’an’s mouth to twitch. So, did Bae Juhyun’s parents also know about their ridiculous relationship now?
That is: They were actually boyfriend and girlfriend but had to pretend not to be, yet had to act like a couple as much as possible on this basis, to make everyone think they were, when in reality they both knew they were just friends... a complicated relationship.
Alright, Liu Xin’an was almost dizzy from his own thinking.
"Umm... auntie, uncle, you haven’t gone to bed yet?"
"Isn’t it because Juhyun suddenly told us she completed the contract renewal today? We are also happy for Juhyun... but Xin’an, with Juhyun’s contract renewal, you might be put at a disadvantage."
Bae Juhyun’s mother’s out-of-nowhere remark left Liu Xin’an confused. He first looked towards Bae Juhyun, who was clearly lost in admiring her own pretty face, and after confirming he couldn’t get an answer from her, had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask Juhyun’s mother.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Juhyun has renewed for three years... your marriage might have to be pushed back a few more years..."
"Ah?"
"Marriage is still okay, but having children is an issue. Juhyun... what are your own plans?"
"We’re talking about this too soon, Mom. I’m only 30."
Finally coming back to her senses, Bae Juhyun looked reproachfully at the lady on the screen and complained in a coquettish manner.
"Is 30 a very young age? Your middle school classmates already have children; what about you?"
"My profession makes it impossible!"
Pressuring to marry and to have children is a common thing in most Asian countries.
Not to mention that Bae Juhyun now had a boyfriend that her mother was quite satisfied with.
Such a talented man should be married early and held tightly in one’s grasp.
The uncertainty of an artist’s work is so great; what if Juhyun gets busy and their relationship cools down?
It’s not an exaggeration to say, if she really missed out on Liu Xin’an, she guarantees there will come a time when Bae Juhyun, that unlucky child, would regret it.
Better to marry early, and it would be best to have a child. In the relationship between husband and wife, a child on the scene is an important factor.
"Alright, Juhyun likes it, so don’t interfere with her,"
The always quiet father Bae finally spoke up. He first cut off mother Bae’s words, then looked at his daughter on the screen, a subtle tenderness flashing by, before he sternly thanked Liu Xin’an: "Please take care of Juhyun while she’s in China."
"Rest assured, uncle, I’ll take good care of Juhyun."
"Okay, okay, go on with your business, and don’t interrupt my chat with my parents."
