Chapter 291: Zhaohuan, are you coming to our house later?
Bae Joo-hyun, who was far away in the dormitory in Seongsu-dong, had no personal schedule and had to stay at home.

She sat on the sofa with her knees hugged, her eyes fixed on the TV but she wasn't paying attention to what was being said.

It has been four months since his comeback in February, but there is still no news of his return from his agent.

Apart from occasional commercial performances, family concerts and joint concerts, there is really no schedule at all.

Joy still has TV drama shooting to do, and Seulgi still has variety shows to attend.

The remaining three people stayed in the dormitory almost every day, or went to the company for training.

Bae Joo-hyun doesn't know what to do when she wakes up every day, so she has to stay in the company's practice room every day, hoping to hear news of her comeback and improve her abilities as much as possible.

She sighed somewhat dejectedly, not understanding why the company had to be so bomb-proof.

The message alert sound from KakaoTalk made Bae Joo-hyun perk up a little, and when she saw that the message was from her own sister, a smile appeared in her eyes.

She has always loved her family and has made plans to take her family on a trip during her vacation time.

For example, Phuket, which my mother longs to go to, and Hawaii, which my sister wants to go to, both seem to be related to the seaside.

I guess it’s because there’s no sea in Daegu, so I yearn for the ocean.

[Bae Joo-yeon]: Ouni~ guess who is in the store now?

Bae Joo-hyun raised her eyebrows and didn't want to play this boring guessing game, so she just typed a few words.

[Bae Joo-hyun]: Just announce the correct answer directly, I don’t want to guess.

The first response to Bae Joo-hyun was not text, but a picture.

Then Bae Joo-yeon typed a bunch of exclamation marks, and it was obvious that she was very excited.

[Bae Joo-yeon]: Ouni! The movie star Ha Jung-woo came to our store and signed his name for our store!!!
Bae Joo-hyun never thought that the small shop run by her parents would be patronized by the movie star.

She enlarged the picture with little interest and noticed the man sitting opposite Ha Jung-woo in the picture.

Bae Joo-hyun's eyes lit up, isn't this Do-hwan?
Why is Do Hwan here? Isn’t he there to film a movie?
Her brain froze for a few seconds before she guessed a possibility.

They are most likely filming together, and the actor who plays opposite Do Hwan is definitely Ha Jung Woo.

Bae Joo-hyun had previously asked Do-hwan where he was going to film a movie, but she did not ask for the specific content.

The two of them rarely talked about work during their chats on KakaoTalk.

She lowered her head and stared at the photo she had enlarged. She glanced guiltily at Cheng Wan's half-open door and quickly pressed the save button.

[Bae Joo-hyun]: Why is Jung-woo coming to our restaurant for dinner? Are you seeing things?
He knew the truth but pretended not to notice it.

She also didn't want her little thoughts to be seen through by her sister.

[Bae Joo-yeon]: Oh! Ouni, why don’t you enlarge the picture? It was brought by Do-hwan!

[Bae Joo-hyun]: Oh, I see.

[Bae Joo-yeon]: I don’t want to chat with you anymore. Mom is taking a day off today and I have to go get busy!

When Bae Joo-hyun saw that her sister didn't notice anything unusual, a smug expression appeared on her face.

She stared at the picture on her phone for a while, then stood up and walked towards Sun Chengwan's bedroom.

Instead of going in directly, he knocked on the door politely before asking:
"Chengwan, you're not taking a nap, are you?"

"Unnie, I'm reading a novel. What's wrong?"

When Bae Joo-hyun pushed open the door and walked in, she saw Son Seung-wan lying on the bed reading a mystery novel.

She walked forward, sat on the edge of the bed and asked:
"I'm planning to go back home. Do you want me to cook some rice for you guys before I leave?"

When Sun Chengwan heard this, he turned over and sat up helplessly, smiling bitterly:
"Ouni, I can cook. Don't treat me like a child~"

"Okay, then you should urge Yilin to stop lying in bed playing with her phone and go to bed earlier."

"I understand. Be careful on your way back, unnie." "Okay, I'll bring you some delicious food when the time comes."

Bae Joo-hyun smiled and patted Son Seung-wan's head, then turned and ran into her room to start packing.

I just went home for a day and didn't need to bring much stuff if I stayed overnight.

As for cosmetics, I have them at home so I don’t need to bring them.

Bae Joo-hyun only took a set of spare clothes and pajamas, and after simply reporting to her agent, she went to the bus stop alone.

Take the bus slowly and leisurely, and enjoy the scenery along the way.

She looked down at her phone and had no intention of sending a message to Zhao Huan.

At this time, Jiang Zhaohuan had already eaten and drunk his fill. He held his chin and had no intention of leaving.

He would feel sleepy after eating, and he didn’t want to drive yet.

They were the only table of customers left in the restaurant. Seeing that there were no outsiders, Pei Zhuyan waved to Do Hwan and said with a smile:

"Zhao Huan, come here!"

"Yes, I'll be right there."

Jiang Zhaohuan followed Bae Zhuyan outside and stopped near the back door of the store.

Pei Zhuyan smiled and put her hands behind her back and suggested:

"Diaohuan, are you coming to our house later? Grandma was nagging about the TV series you starred in a while ago. She missed you a lot."

This was truly an unexpected invitation and development.

Jiang Zhaohuan hesitated for a moment and nodded:

"Yes, then I'll go buy some gifts and then visit again."

"You don't have to be so polite. Didn't we not take it last time we went to Seoul?"

"This is different. You're going to celebrate Irene's birthday, not coming to my house on purpose."

Pei Zhuyan thought about it and felt that it made some sense.

Forget it, since Do Hwan wants to buy it, then let him buy it. At worst, I can treat Do Hwan to a meal and return it when I go to Seoul later.

The two agreed on a time, and Kang Do-hwan took the slightly tipsy Ha Jung-woo back to his residence first.

As for Kim Hyun-soo?

She hadn't planned to play with them in the afternoon because she still had to review the lessons she had missed at school.

After regaining his freedom, Kang Do-hwan received the address sent by Bae Joo-yeon and borrowed a car to drive to his destination.

Of course, on the way there, he specially bought two large boxes of pork ribs gift boxes and a box of watermelons that Bae Joo-hyun liked to eat.

I didn’t choose Korean beef because Daegu’s ribs are quite famous and the price is not cheap.

It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when Jiang Zhaohuan drove to Pei's house. He had already arrived at the parking lot near his home, but he had not gotten out of the car yet.

He placed his hands on the steering wheel, lost in thought.

Only later did he realize that he had to face Bae Joo-hyun's family alone.

Wait a minute, spending time alone with your parents before you even start dating is a bit... out of order?
Jiang Zhaohuan let out a deep sigh. Now that he had come this far, there was no way he could escape.

He carried his things up to the apartment building. Fortunately, he was quite strong, otherwise he would have to run another round.

Bae Joo-yeon, who had been looking out from upstairs, had been waiting at the door since she saw Do-hwan entering the building.

She quickly opened the door and shouted into the house:
"Grandma, your much-missed Do Hwan is here!"
