Peninsula: 72 Hours of Blind Dates

Wu Haiyuan's tricks don't stop at just acting cute.

However, this tactic was completely misunderstood by Han Xijun's mother.

My mother had never said this before.

It was at the dinner table today that Han Xijun learned that his mother's biggest regret was that her son had never been good at acting cute.

The innocent father has been dragged into this again.

Han Hee-joon's introverted and sullen personality is inherited from his father.

Anyway, Mom thinks that bad genes are inherited from Dad.

Mom always envied other people's children who could act cute with their parents. Her friend's son would always say "I love you" in a cute way when he called, but Han Xijun never did that.

To Han Xijun's shock, after hearing this, Wu Haiyuan comforted his mother by resting his head on her shoulder while taking out his phone to ask for Han Xijun's mother's phone number.

Enter the number to connect directly.

The two of them were pressed together when Wu Haiyuan asked his mother to answer her phone after it rang.

They were answering the phone face-to-face. Han Xijun and his father were completely baffled by what was going on.

Immediately afterwards, Wu Haiyuan took out her phone and started acting cute.

Auntie, I miss you. Auntie, I love you.

Pity?

regret?

envious?

Starting today, all of these will disappear from Han Hee-joon's mother's world.

What Han Xijun couldn't do, Wu Haiyuan did in his place.

This isn't just talk; it's concrete action.

What seemed like an abrupt and completely unbelievable act to Han Hee-joon and his father was, in his mother's eyes, simply a manifestation of her long-held desire for her children's love.

The mother simply put her arm around Wu Haiyuan's shoulder.

At this point, even if the King of Heaven himself came and wanted to take Wu Haiyuan away, it wouldn't work. Wu Haiyuan was his mother's precious treasure, an absolute gem that she absolutely couldn't part with.

Han Xijun was stunned.

This is even more outrageous than releasing all the fish I caught back into the sea yesterday.

That's a high rank.

How can I compare to Wu Haiyuan?

His mother didn't even want to look at him, and didn't want to talk to him anymore, as it was a waste of breath. Anyway, no matter what, Han Xijun could never act as cute as Wu Haiyuan.

I believe that as long as Wu Haiyuan asks, her mother will give her whatever she wants.

Whether it was the effect of the alcohol or not, Wu Haiyuan was not nervous at all, and just stayed close to her mother, feeling the love between "mother and daughter".

I glanced at it.

Dad was smiling too.

I don't know why I'm laughing.

In this house, the two men got up from the table first. The father then went to get a bottle of raspberry wine, and walked into the living room to sit next to Han Xijun, slowly saying, "You could have had a younger sister; your mother always wanted a daughter."

What kind of statement is this?

originally?

Dad continued, "For some reasons, anyway, your girlfriend is very good. She's really sensible and considerate. Don't bully her. If you do, not only your mother, but I'll also deal with you."

Han Xijun was a little confused.

During the meal, Dad and Wu Haiyuan barely communicated. What does that mean?

Is Wu Haiyuan truly irresistible?

Just a smile or a frown, or a few lame jokes she told at the dinner table?

I have to admit that lame jokes are great, and Han Xijun has secretly learned them again.

But Mom and Dad didn't take it as a joke; their laughter seemed very unreal.

Everyone who watches it is acting.

Was it not an act? Han Xijun made that judgment based on what his father had just said.

Dad looked away, let out a long sigh, and muttered, "With Wu Haiyuan here, your mom will be even happier. She'll definitely brag to her friends when we go back to Busan. You better be prepared to bring Wu Haiyuan to Busan for a visit, you absolutely have to."

"dad"

"Yeah, I want to show it off to my friends too."

"what?"

"You go and keep them company, see if they need anything, I won't go and cause them any trouble."

It's so unfamiliar.

Han Xijun felt it was necessary to have a proper talk with his parents after Wu Haiyuan left.

Near SL apartment.

Inside a cave-side coffee shop with a fresh and clean decor and only three small round tables.

Han Xijun placed his elbows more than halfway across the small round table.

Leaning forward to close the distance between himself and Wu Haiyuan, he whispered, "So, what exactly did you and my mother talk about?" Wu Haiyuan leaned back as well.

Holding the exquisitely patterned coffee cup, she gently swirled it with a spoon, a slight smile playing on her lips, and said in a detached tone, "I don't remember."

Han Xijun pleaded, "You surely remember, you and my mother were laughing so happily. Laughter itself isn't a big deal, but you were laughing at me, you were talking about me, weren't you?"

After asking the question, Han Xijun looked at Wu Haiyuan with shining eyes.

He wanted to know.

People are all the same. Han Xijun also gossips, gets curious, and gets itchy when he senses that others are talking about him but doesn't know if they really said it or what they said.

Especially when the person who knows about this is sitting right in front of you, is a participant in the conversation, and is your girlfriend.

Seeing that Wu Haiyuan remained unmoved, Han Xijun played his trump card, suddenly becoming serious and speaking in a deep voice: "Wu Haiyuan-xi, I believe there should be basic trust between people. The worst thing in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship is to hide things from each other. Since you've chosen to be together, you should be honest with each other."

Wu Haiyuan took a leisurely sip of coffee and remarked, "The latte in Incheon tastes even better than the ones in Seoul."

"Wu Haiyuan xi"

"Go on, I'm listening. Auntie is right, you talk the most when you're debating, and sure enough..."

Han Xijun spread his hands and said, "This is not a debate, this is stating the facts. We are lovers, and we should not hide anything from each other." Wu Haiyuan rotated his wrist.

Han Xijun tried to understand what it meant, but couldn't, and asked, "What does it mean?"

Wu Haiyuan said, "Tell me back then."

"Back? Where?"

Just three sentences ago.

Han Xijun has a really good memory. As soon as Wu Haiyuan finished speaking, Han Xijun immediately repeated, "Wu Haiyuan-xi, I believe that there should be basic trust between people. The most taboo thing in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship is to hide things from each other. Since you have chosen to be together, you should be honest with each other."

Papapa

Wu Haiyuan clapped and exclaimed, "Not a single word is wrong!"

"What?!"

"But Han Hee-joon-xi."

"What's wrong?"

"A choice?" "Huh?"

"You said you chose to be together, but was it really a choice?"

One sentence left Han Xijun speechless.

They weren't arguing.

Even in an argument, you couldn't find fault with these lines.

wrong.

It must have been his mother who taught Wu Haiyuan how to find loopholes in his own words.

That's amazing.

Han Xijun was shocked.

On the surface, she responded, "Of course, I chose you."

Wu Haiyuan gently shook his head and said, "Did I choose you?"

"Yeah," Wu Haiyuan said slowly, taking another sip of coffee. "I remember I didn't have a choice at all. After someone confessed, they just said they were my boyfriend. Am I having a memory problem? My aunt told me that in this situation, the person is just being unreasonable."

What are they teaching?

Thinking that he could definitely get the answer from Wu Haiyuan, he didn't expect Wu Haiyuan to be so tight-lipped, and moreover, he was unusually clear-headed, calm, and intelligent today.
