Peninsula: Don’t just fall in love on Fridays

Chapter 294 How did I really meet the parents? !

Assure again and again.

Bae Joo-hyun finally let her sister go.

She sat back down at the dressing table and used a cotton pad to wipe off the traces of her eyebrow pencil.

Pei Zhuyan, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, dangling her feet, couldn't help but speak:

"Ouni, you are already beautiful enough, you don't need to be like this."

"I just want to look good in front of him. I have dark circles under my eyes lately and need to cover them up."

Bae Joo-yeon shook her head helplessly. If what you have are called dark circles, then what I have are called panda eyes.

Having never been in a relationship, she said she couldn't understand her sister's mentality.

She lazily lay down on the bed, holding her chin and asked:

"Unnie, can I ask you one more question?"

"Ask if you want to."

"When are you going to confess to Do Hwan?"

This question confused Bae Joo-hyun, as if she had never thought about this issue before.

Ever since she confirmed her feelings, she seemed to have been in a passive state.

Ask yourself, have you ever really thought about confessing first?
It seemed like she had been waiting from the very beginning, waiting for Do Hwan to speak first?

Seeing that Ouni was slow to respond, Pei Zhuyan couldn't help but ask:
"Ouni, you haven't ever thought about it, have you? It's not necessary for the boy to confess his love in a relationship. If you like it, you can also express it."

"It's not what you think. I'm not a rigid person."

Pei Zhuxuan thought about the drunken confession and the response she received some time ago, and her voice gradually became smaller.

"He has already confessed to me, and I have also hinted that I like him."

Pei Zhuyan widened her eyes and showed an expression of disbelief.

What is going on? They've confessed their love, but they're still not together?

Am I crazy, or are they crazy?
Pei Zhuyan tried to organize her words and said in a somewhat confused manner:

“Ouni, you and Dohwan…really like each other?”

"He was drunk when he confessed, and he didn't remember anything he said."

"I see. What about yours?"

"To borrow a classic quote from Natsume Soseki, he also responded to me... so I guess now all I need is a proper confession."

Bae Joo-yeon showed a gossipy expression and wanted to continue asking, but then she noticed her own sister's death stare.

She quickly got off the bed and walked out of the room with a wry smile.

Anyway, I already know a lot of gossip, and I'm satisfied.

When Bae Joo-yeon came to the kitchen and saw Kang Do-hwan cooking with his grandmother, the smile in her eyes became even bigger.

The next time I see Do Hwan, will he already be my boyfriend?
Hehe, it’s really exciting.

Wearing an apron, Kang Do-hwan expertly cuts kimchi into bite-sized pieces.

Even though he didn't understand why Bandao always had to pack several side dishes for every meal, he would choose to respect the other party's eating habits.

Pei Zhuyan now looked at Zhaohuan with eyes that were purely for her brother-in-law. She narrowed her eyes and smiled:
"Zhao Huan, you are a guest and I am still asking for your help. Thank you for your hard work."

"I like cooking, and I'm embarrassed to ask my grandma to cook for me."

Lu Fuzhu smiled when she heard that. She took out the pork ribs gift box that Zhao Huan brought and directly took out two large pieces of pork ribs that looked the best quality.

This kind of meat is especially delicious when roasted directly on the baking sheet and paired with a little pepper, salt and sesame oil.

Scallion kimchi, radish kimchi and fern kimchi are served with warm beef and radish soup, mixed vegetables and grilled ribs.

Ordinary home-cooked meals are still very good for Jiang Zhaohuan who often eats takeout.

After putting on her makeup, Bae Joo-hyun walked out of the house and joined in helping.

Even if I didn't help with the cooking, at least I could set the table and serve the rice.

Jiang Zhaohuan originally wanted to sit next to his grandmother, but Bae Zhuyan took that seat directly.

He pursed his lips, pulled out the chair next to Bae Joo Hyun and sat down. When eating, he became more careful, fearing that his elbow would touch the person next to him.

Lu Fuzhu noticed that Zhaohuan was only staring at the plate of mixed vegetables in front of him, so he picked up a large piece of pork ribs and put it on his bowl.

"Zhaohuan, come on, don't just eat the food in front of you~try the grilled ribs~"

"Yes, thank you grandma."

Pei Zhuxuan noticed that Dohwan was reserved, and when grandma got up to go to the kitchen to get some water, she suddenly said:

"Zhaohuan, do you think I have a thorn in my body?"

"Huh? No."

"Then do you need to be so careful? You don't need to be so careful when eating."

After saying this, Bae Joo Hyun took Do Hwan's empty bowl and filled it with half a bowl of rice, saying,

"Eat more ribs. Is half a bowl of rice enough?"

"That's enough."

Pei Zhuyan quickly took the bowl in her hand, otherwise she was worried that her smug look would be caught by the two men.

Oh my god, why do I feel like I'm watching an idol drama and shipping CPs?

It turned out that it was the right decision to sit opposite them, as it was simply the best area for watching movies.

After dinner, the two sisters also helped to wash the dishes. They were embarrassed to let their guest, Do Hwan, enter the kitchen again.

Jiang Zhaohuan, standing in the living room, had no intention of sitting down. It was not good for health to sit down after eating.

After washing the dishes, Bae Joo-hyun wiped her hands and was about to cut some fruit to eat later when the cell phone beside her rang.

When I picked it up, it turned out to be a video call from my mother.

Why did my mother suddenly call me via video?
I don’t think I’ve mentioned anything about going home yet.

Bae Joo-hyun suddenly thought of something, turned her head to look at her sister who was trying to sneak away, and reached out to grab the back of her collar.

"Jooyeon, you told your parents, right?"

"Hey, unnie, you should answer the phone first."

Bae Joo-hyun rolled her eyes in annoyance, and had no choice but to answer the call and forced a smile.

Before I had time to greet my mother, the other party spoke:

"Huh? Aren't you with Do Hwan? Why don't you see him?"

I could still hear my father's voice outside the screen, but I couldn't make out clearly what he was mumbling.

Pei Zhuxuan puffed her lips in jealousy and said dissatisfiedly:

"Mom~ We haven't seen each other for a long time. Shouldn't you think of seeing me first?"

"Oh my god, my beautiful daughter has lost weight again. So what about Do Hwan? He was so good in "Exit 3"! I want to convey this message to him in person~"

Bae Joo-hyun was silent. At that moment, she felt that she had lost a lot. It seemed that her mother cared about Do-hwan more than herself.

She walked towards the living room speechlessly, stuffed the phone directly into the hands of the confused Zhaohuan, and sulked alone.

Jiang Zhaohuan looked at the phone screen in confusion. When he saw that the person on the screen was Pei Zhuxuan's mother, he was so scared that he stretched out his arms and bowed:

"Auntie...Hello, Auntie! Nice to see you again!"

"Hey~ Dohwan, you don't have to be so polite. Meeting you is the happiest thing for me recently."

Park Young-ran held her cheeks and happily talked about how much she liked the TV series and movies that Do Hwan starred in, and said that she was looking forward to his future works.

But what she didn't know was that Do Hwan was in an extremely nervous state and didn't hear anything she said at all.

At this moment, Jiang Zhaohuan was completely at a loss, because he noticed that the middle-aged man who appeared in the picture was staring at him with a serious face.

It goes without saying that this person is most likely Bae Joo-hyun's father.

He swallowed hard.

I always feel that the phone I hold carefully is like a hot potato.

How come I really got to meet the parents?!
