"They said they wouldn’t be nervous at all..."
She was just about to ask a question about Liu Xin’an when her phone suddenly vibrated in her pocket, leaving her montarily stunned.
Quickly pulling out her phone, she was surprised to see that the caller was Kang Seulgi.
"Can I take this call?"
"Oh, of course, take your ’little girl’s’ call."
With permission granted, Bae Juhyun answered the phone.
As soon as she picked up, Kang Seulgi’s exasperated voice ca through.
"Juhyun, didn’t you tell Liu Xin’an that you were going to sleep before boarding the plane?"
This caught Bae Juhyun off guard. Her beautiful eyes widened, and her pink lips parted in a mont of panic.
"What’s wrong?"
"I got it, I’ll tell Xin’an right away." She quickly hung up the phone and turned to Li Chenglu with an embarrassed smile.
"I forgot to tell Xin’an that I was going to sleep before I got on the plane, and when he couldn’t find for a long ti, he got so worried that he called Seulgi."
"...You actually forgot sothing like that?"
Bae Juhyun’s small face turned red. She bit her lip awkwardly and mumbled, "I was just too excited..."
Indeed, the re thought of seeing Liu Xin’an shortly after landing had her trembling with excitent.
The last ti she had felt sothing similar was when they first stepped on stage.
Unknowingly, Liu Xin’an had beco just as important in her heart.
He probably ranked third.
First was family.
Second was Red Velvet.
Liu Xin’an... with a bit more effort, he could tie for second!
She found her boyfriend’s contact and swiftly typed a ssage on her phone, sending it off in a flurry of white fingers.
Almost instantaneously, Liu Xin’an’s response ca back.
Seeing the worried words nearly spilling out of the screen, Bae Juhyun felt a sweet warmth in her heart and couldn’t stop smiling.
Knowing Bae Juhyun was chatting with Liu Xin’an, Li Chenglu didn’t interrupt. Instead, she leaned forward on the backrest of the front passenger seat, curiously chatting with her dad.
"Dad, why didn’t Mom co along?"
"Your mom’s gone to play mahjong with your godmother. She was supposed to co with us but changed plans last minute."
"Oh? Playing mahjong with my godmother? Won’t she end up losing a lot?"
Even though Park Jinsuk had lost 140 the last ti and was upset for two days, she usually won more than she lost.
But her mom? She was a walking disaster at the ga.
Usually, she only played to lose money.
The stakes weren’t high, but it still affected her mood.
"Losing is losing, no big deal. By the way, I heard from your godparents that Xin’an’s girlfriend is a superstar. Is that true?"
Hearing her dad bring this up, Li Chenglu’s face lit up with excitent.
"Absolutely, my Irene is an absolute beauty, the epito of Korean aesthetics, the unrivaled visual of the fourth generation, the absolute core of Red Velvet, a superstar who draws no exaggeration with any praise!"
"Wow, so amazing."
"Don’t use foul language, but yes, Irene is really incredible, a true superstar whose every move sends shockwaves through the Korean entertainnt industry!"
"...How did soone so amazing fall for Xin’an?"
"I’m still puzzled by that."
Indeed, father and daughter shared a very similar view of Liu Xin’an.
After all, even godfathers don’t hold back when it cos to poking fun at their godchildren!
"Why didn’t she co back with Xin’an before? Didn’t he say she was very busy?"
"It’s not easy for a superstar to go abroad. If she doesn’t want her company to know she’s dating and wants to travel abroad, it would be pretty complicated."
"Then how co she’s able to co back with you now?"
"Well, wasn’t it thanks to your amazing daughter that we solved this little issue!" Li Chenglu pounded her chest proudly.
Li Changhe nodded in agreent, showering his daughter with praise.
At this mont, Bae Juhyun, having dealt with Liu Xin’an, gently tugged on Li Chenglu’s sleeve and whispered, "I want to chat with Uncle, too."
"Oh, go ahead, I’ll translate for you."
Bae Juhyun flashed a grateful smile at Li Chenglu before mimicking her pose by leaning forward slightly.
"Um, Uncle, thank you for coming to pick us up today."
"No need to be so formal. Feel at ho, make yourself comfortable."
"Thank you, Uncle."
Bae Juhyun paused. For soone reserved like her, making small talk was really difficult. She had been so proactive just now to avoid leaving a bad impression on Li Changhe.
Getting in the car and only playing with her phone wouldn’t do.
Luckily, Tianjin folks’ humor never let a conversation stall.
"Irene..."
"Ah! Uncle, you can just call Bae Juhyun. Irene is my stage na, Bae Juhyun is my real na."
Here, Li Chenglu was much more professional than Liu Xin’an.
Strictly speaking, Bae Juhyun’s real na should be Bae Juhyeon, but that na didn’t quite fit a pretty woman, so everyone just called her Bae Juhyun.
After the translation app had previously caused a minor fiasco, fan Li Chenglu wasn’t about to let that happen again.
She accurately translated the na "Bae Juhyun."
The na, which sounded non-Huaxia, made Li Changhe chuckle.
"Sounds a lot like Jinsuk’s na, very obviously not Huaxia."
"Godmother?"
"Right, Bae Juhyun, I’ll just call you Juhyun given my seniority. If you don’t mind, you can call godfather just like Xin’an does!"
After hearing the translation, Bae Juhyun’s face turned red. She wanted her reserved nature not to show.
But calling Liu Xin’an’s godfather "godfather"...
Spare her, please.
"What are you talking about, Dad? I don’t agree! I haven’t fully accepted Irene and Liu Xin’an being together yet. Wait until they are for real, then we can talk about changing how we address each other."
Li Chenglu, experienced in navigating social situations, imdiately saw Bae Juhyun’s panic and quickly intervened.
"Right! Chenglu is right; Juhyun can just call you Uncle. No need to rush calling ’godfather’; you haven’t received the change of address gift yet."
"Change of address gift?"
"Uh... it’s just a custom, nothing to worry about."
The ntion of custom made Bae Juhyun suddenly nervous.
She realized that in her excitent, she hadn’t prepared anything for this trip.
The last ti Liu Xin’an visited her family, he bought a load of things. He had said that if you go to et your partner’s parents empty-handed, it is seen as very impolite... She had been so excited that she completely forgot about this.
Panicking, Bae Juhyun grabbed Li Chenglu’s arm again, looking up at her with a troubled expression.
"Chenglu, in Huaxia, do you need to bring sothing when eting the parents of your partner?"
"Uh... yes, that’s generally expected..."
"But I didn’t prepare anything. What should I do? Is there still ti to buy sothing now?!"
Bae Juhyun was truly worried; she didn’t want to leave a bad impression on Liu Xin’an’s parents.
"Don’t worry. Dad, could we swing by a mall real quick? We ca over here in a rush, and Irene didn’t buy anything. Wouldn’t that be bad?"
"Oh, co on, it’s no big deal. You know your godparents; they wouldn’t care about such things."
"Dad!"
Li Changhe grinned, glancing at his daughter’s furious expression, and promptly changed directions.
After all, they were passing by a mall anyway, and he wanted to pick up so drinks.
Driving for long distances made his mouth dry; he needed so water to ease it!
