Chapter 290 Meeting the Parents

This year's Spring Festival is still filled with a warm and festive atmosphere.

The whole family gathered together again, with laughter and joy all the time.

On this special day.

As usual, everyone is "concerned" about when Kim Jong Kook will find a partner.

In the past, Kim Jong Kook always cleverly changed the subject or chose to avoid it.

But this time, he actually showed a rare serious attitude.

And made it clear that he would actively look for a partner.

Perhaps it was because the handwritten diary on the day of moving had deeply touched him, or perhaps he had changed his coping strategy.

Seeing Kim Jong Kook like this, everyone stopped urging him.

And the focus turned to the love life of Kim Ki-hyun and Lee Ji-eun.

……

After the laughter and joy on New Year’s Eve ended.

New Year's Day.

Jin Qixuan's car was filled with all kinds of gifts.

I visited the homes of the directors, writers, actors and mentors I had worked with one by one to send my sincere blessings.

These relationships are the valuable assets he has accumulated over the years and are also an important cornerstone for his future development.

However, as his social circle continued to expand, the number of families he needed to visit also increased.

This inevitably leads to a longer visiting cycle.

It was not until the fourth day of the Lunar New Year that Jin Qixuan finally completed all the New Year greetings tasks and felt a little relieved.

Tomorrow is the start day for the filming of "The Evil Dead".

Logically, he should have made careful preparations at home.

However, I don't know why.

A strong throbbing suddenly arose in his heart.

He didn't hesitate too much.

I decisively bought a flight ticket to Jeju Island.

Immediately set off to meet Lee Ji-eun.

When going.

All he could think about was the pitiful look of Lee Ji-eun wiping her tears.

However, the moment Jin Qixuan walked out of the airport, he suddenly came to his senses.

How can this be a meeting with Lee Ji-eun?

And her whole family!

Thinking of this, Jin Qixuan couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.

Meeting the parents is something every couple has to go through sooner or later.

However, Jin Qixuan is obviously not ready for a formal meeting yet.

So he thought about calling Lee Ji-eun and asking her to come out.

After answering the phone, Li Zhien's voice revealed a little surprise:
"Hey, why did you come here without saying hello?"

"Because I missed you so much."

"Hate it, I haven't even washed my hair yet... Wait for me, I'll go find you."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Lee Ji-eun put on her hat, hurriedly put on her clothes and prepared to go out.

This scene was noticed by Ms. He, who was watching TV with her grandmother in the living room.

Ms. He asked curiously:
"Jie Eun, where are you going in such a hurry? We're going to have dinner soon."

"I'm going to see Qixuan."

Ms. He was shocked when she heard this.
"What!? Qixuan is here?! Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Li Zhien was shocked by her reaction and explained hurriedly:
"He, he just told me too. I didn't expect it to be so sudden..."

"Ouch, you stinky girl!"

With that, Ms. He stood up and walked to the kitchen, muttering:

"If Qixuan is coming, I have to prepare well."

Hearing this, Li Zhien stood there awkwardly and said:
"Mom, he didn't say he was coming..."

Ms. He paused, turned her head and stared at Li Zhien, and said seriously:
"You must bring him here, otherwise, don't come back."

Li Zhien: "..."

At this time, grandma raised her hand to turn down the volume of the TV and asked in confusion:

"Who is Qixuan?"

Upon hearing this, Ms. He poked her head out of the kitchen and replied:

"Mom, he's your future grandson-in-law."

Upon hearing this, the old lady smiled instantly.

He patted Li Zhien's little hand kindly and told her to bring Jin Qixuan home to see him.

Seeing this, Li Zhien had no choice but to agree.

……

As soon as the two met.

Li Zhien immediately threw herself into Jin Qixuan's arms.

“So warm~”

Lee Ji-eun raised her little face, blinked her bright eyes, and her smile was as bright as the spring sunshine.

"Go away, it's so hot."

However, Jin Qixuan deliberately put on a stern face and pretended to be dissatisfied to tease her.

Li Zhien didn't care and continued to act coquettishly with a nasal voice: "No~"

As she spoke, she hugged him tighter, hanging on to Jin Qixuan like a sloth.

"If you don't let go, I'm going to flick my booger onto your clothes."

"Haha, then you're dead."

"..."

Tired of it for a while.

Li Zhien told Jin Qixuan that she wanted to take him home.

"What! This, this, this is too sudden. Maybe next time."

"No, I've already promised you, you have to come."

"Ugh……"

Jin Qixuan looked resentful and said:
"I wanted to give you a surprise, but it ended up being a surprise for me."

Seeing this, Li Zhien couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"You're still laughing, why didn't you tell me in advance."

Hearing this, Li Zhien wrinkled her nose cutely, hugged his arm and shook it twice, and said:
"Well, we'll meet sooner or later anyway~"

Seeing her like this, Jin Qixuan's mood instantly improved. He stretched out his hand and pinched her cheek, saying:

"It seems that our Jieun has recovered very well recently."

"That's right. I follow the doctor's orders and go out to get two hours of sun every day."

Li Zhien raised her little face, looking like she was asking for praise.

"So nice."

Kim Ki-hyeon was delighted by Lee Ji-eun's cute appearance.

I couldn't help myself and gave her a gentle kiss on the cheek.

"Okay, there's still some time before the mall closes, let's go pick out gifts."

Li Zhien hit him lightly and urged.

"Ah."

On the way, Jin Qixuan asked Li Zhien about their hobbies so that he could buy gifts accordingly.

"My dad is more vulgar. He likes cars and houses."

"..."

Not to mention that there is no time to prepare these things.

Even if you give him time.

Jin Qixuan doesn't have that much money to do these things now.

"Is there nothing popular?"

"Something more popular..."

Li Zhien rubbed her chin and thought for a while, then her eyes suddenly lit up and she said:
"Got it! He got addicted to fishing some time ago!"

"Fishing? How about buying a fishing rod?"

"Ah."

When buying a fishing rod, Lee Ji-eun also talked about some embarrassing things about her father.

What [When she caught a fish, the fish's claw hit her face, which was very funny. She even saved the photo. ]

What else [Ms. He got up after sitting for a long time and stretched her muscles, making a crackling sound. Then, her father said: Be careful, your mother is going to transform. As a result, he was beaten...]

Although it was funny, this information did not help Jin Qixuan understand her father at all.

Can you still threaten him with these words?
Finally, under the enthusiastic salesmanship of the store manager, the two bought a 6.3-meter-long corrugated dragon fishing rod for Li's father.

After buying the fishing rod, Jin Qixuan bought Ms. He a set of magic water gift boxes.

"What are your hobbies?"

“My grandmother’s hobby is me.”

“Oh, what about Jong-hoon?”

Li Zhien thought for a while and said:

"As for Zhongxun, he has too many hobbies, so just give him some pocket money and let him buy them himself."

"it is good."

After all the gifts were prepared, the two took a taxi to their grandmother's house.

"Ding dong~"

After ringing the doorbell, the door was opened after a while.

The moment Ms. He saw Jin Qixuan, a bright smile broke out on her face.

"Oh, you're finally here."

"Aunt, I wish you a happy old age."

As he spoke, Jin Qixuan handed over the magic water gift box with a smile.

"Look at you, why bring a gift when you come? I haven't finished using the skin care products I gave you last time."

Although she said this, Ms. He still accepted the gift happily and invited Jin Qixuan in.

As soon as you walk into the house.

Jin Qixuan saw three people sitting on the sofa.

This was the first time he met Li's father.

It looks like an approachable lake.

Jin Qixuan immediately walked forward, bowed respectfully, and handed over the fishing rod in his hand.

"Uncle, this is a gift for you. I hope you like it."

"Oh? I still have a gift?"

Father Li happily took the fishing rod.

She is like an enlarged version of Lee Ji-eun, even her smile is exactly the same.

"Of course, this is something we spent a long time picking~"

Li Zhien said proudly on the side.

"That's thoughtful. Sit down, sit down quickly. Jieun, go and pour the tea."

Then, Jin Qixuan took out a prepared envelope from his bag and handed it to Li Zhongxun who was sitting next to him.

"Your sister said you have too many hobbies, so she lets you buy them yourself."

Li Zhongxun opened the envelope and glanced at the amount inside. The same smile as Li Zhien instantly appeared on his face and said:

"Thank you, brother-in-law!"

At this time, grandma came over and looked at Jin Qixuan curiously.

"He's really handsome."

Upon hearing this, Jin Qixuan bowed and greeted:
"Hello grandma, I'm Jin Qixuan."

Grandma smiled and nodded, then took Jin Qixuan's hand and asked him to sit down next to her.

……

After a while.

Li Zhien brought hot tea and placed it on the coffee table.

Then, she sat next to Jin Qixuan, hugged his arm sweetly, and said happily to her family:

"Let me formally introduce this to you all. This is my boyfriend, Jin Qixuan. Please give us your blessings."

"Okay, okay, I wish you happiness."

Grandma nodded with a smile and looked at the two of them with a kind face.

Li Zhongxun was reluctant to give, and under the pressure from her sister, she also honestly sent her blessings.

Only Mr. Li has not sent his blessings yet.

Although I was very happy to collect the fishing rod.

But my own little cabbage was taken away by someone else.

I just feel uncomfortable.

"This is the first time we meet, Dad can't send his blessing so hastily."

Li Zhien pouted.

She was very unhappy that her father did not send his blessings immediately.

"Jie Eun is not as pretty as me and her mother. She only inherited 1% of our looks."

When Li Zhien heard this, she immediately widened her eyes in dissatisfaction.

He seemed about to refute, but was interrupted by Mr. Li's next words.

"As for his personality, he is the type who is always nitpicking, stubborn, slow to warm up, and emotionally dull..."

Under Li Zhien's fierce gaze, Li's father listed a lot of her shortcomings.

Then, he suddenly changed the subject and asked:

"So, what do you like about her?"

Jin Qixuan was stunned by Li's father's sudden question and fell into deep thought.

[The appearance and personality that could be praised have been criticized, how can I praise them???]

Li Zhien was also curious about this question.

Her big eyes blinked like two twinkling stars, staring straight at Jin Qixuan, waiting for his answer.

Facing the eager gazes of his family, Jin Qixuan felt unprecedented pressure.

He originally thought that he knew Lee Ji-eun well enough.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt a little at a loss, as if he couldn't find more words to describe how good she was.

However, just as he was about to fall silent.

In my mind it was like opening an old photo album.

Page by page, it shows every detail of his time with Lee Ji-eun.

Jin Qixuan was a little dazed.

It turns out that, unknowingly.

All the memories of Lee Ji-eun have occupied such an important place in his mind.

These fragments of memories.

Maybe it's just a simple conversation between two people, a deep gaze, or a tacit smile.

They don’t all have to be those heart-pounding moments.

But it is undoubtedly the most memorable and treasured memory that Jin Qixuan has had in this world.

"What do I like about her?"

Jin Qixuan asked himself softly,
"I like her bright smile, her bewildering simplicity, her kindness, and even more her perseverance..."

"There are so many things about Jieun that people like. She is the unique light in my life, allowing me to let down my guard without reservation and show my true self. I can't imagine what I would become without her company and support."

After Jin Qixuan expressed his feelings, his eyes naturally turned to Li Zhien.

I saw Li Zhien holding her cheeks with both hands, tilting her head and looking at him intently.

Those eyes were like the brightest stars in the night sky, shining with bright and gentle light.

There was a faint blush on her cheeks.

Like the rising morning glow, it adds a bit of shyness and charm to her beauty.

The moment the two looked at each other.

The words from "Camel Xiangzi" suddenly appeared in Jin Qixuan's mind:

[There are not many truths in this world. A woman's blush is worth more than a long dialogue.]

In fact, there is no shortage of sweet love words between the two.

But those words were often only said in private, becoming a little secret between the two of them.

However, everything became particularly different when Jin Qixuan listed the reasons why he liked Li Zhien one by one in front of his whole family.

A corner of Li Zhien's heart seemed to be suddenly lit up.

A warm current surged through her body, making her feel as if her entire body was burning and hot.

The feeling was so strong.

Her head felt a little dizzy, as if she was slightly drunk.

When I looked at Jin Qixuan again, I had a different feeling.

[I can watch it every day, but it’s strange that I can never get enough of it…]

She narrowed her eyes slightly, like a little fox, and looked at Jin Qixuan with satisfaction.

Jin Qixuan noticed the change in Li Zhien's eyes.

I feel a little embarrassed after not seeing you for such a long time.

He quickly turned his eyes away.
