Chapter 89: Sixty-third Day of Dating. Because of preparations for a performance...
because of preparations for a concert, Kwon Ji-yong claimed he had more time to rest, but in reality, he was still busy most of the time. However, after a break from filming a variety show, the two of them returned to the villa together.
They had recently sent the cat to the villa, and this time, in addition to visiting his parents, Kwon Ji-yong also wanted to bring the cat back.
Kwon Ji-yong had his own ideas, but Wu Yunxi had a different one.
"Oppa, you'll be traveling a lot from now on. If IYE takes the cat, there'll be no one to take care of it."
Wu Yunxi couldn't help but tell the truth as she happily packed her things.
Kwon Ji-yong paused, slapped his head, and laughed.
"I wanted to bring the cat over because we hadn't seen each other in so long, but I forgot I had a concert. But luckily, we still have time. I'll bring the cat over for a while and then send it to my mom."
Wu Yunxi's concerns were not unfounded, but Kwon Ji-yong thought about his upcoming plans and felt that he could take the cat over for a few days. Wu Yunxi didn't object to Quan Ji-yong's words. She liked cats, too, but she was just worried about having no one to take care of them.
"That's fine,"
Quan Ji-yong said, and Wu Yunxi agreed. The two of them hit it off and headed to the villa together.
The villa had guests today, so Quan Ji-yong drove directly to the back, where he had his own parking space. He parked and left. Because the back was private, few people would go there on purpose. Of course, some visitors to the villa were drawn to the fact that it was owned by Quan Ji-yong's parents, hoping to run into him.
Because he hadn't told his parents about his return, the house he lived in was empty. Quan Ji-yong opened the door and went inside. The cats and dogs, having heard the noise, came to the front door. Seeing their owner had left them there, they didn't even interact with Quan Ji-yong, but instead came straight to Wu Yunxi.
Quan Ji-yong, who had been thinking of hugging the cats, withdrew his hand awkwardly when he saw IYE go directly to Wu Yunxi.
"You two are so heartless! You didn't even come over here for a hug."
Quan Zhilong said this with a hint of jealousy, though he wasn't sure whose jealousy he was getting. Wu Yunxi, however, found it quite amusing. She held IYE and walked over to Quan Zhilong.
"Daddy's angry, do you want me to hold you?"
Wu Yunxi said this, her eyes beaming with a smile as she looked at Quan Zhilong. Quan Zhilong had been pretending to be so irritated by Wu Yunxi's reaction. But what could he do about Wu Yunxi? Quan Zhilong smiled and chose to console himself.
He took the cat from Wu Yunxi and was about to say something when Quan's mother walked in.
"Hey? Zhilong, Yunxi, why are you here?"
Quan's mother had returned to get something and hadn't noticed anything else when she opened the door. But upon entering, she saw her son and his girlfriend holding the cat, talking in a seemingly unrelated conversation.
"Oppa" and
"Auntie"
turned around and hurriedly greeted Quan's mother.
"Hey, you're back just in time! Daddy Zhilong caught a big fish, and we're having dinner tonight."
Seeing she'd startled the children, Mother Quan gave a soothing smile and recounted today's events. It was quite a coincidence; Daddy Quan would go fishing from time to time, but he usually came back empty-handed. Today, however, he'd caught a big fish.
Originally, they'd planned to skip cooking the fish since it was just the two of them, but with Quan Zhilong back, it had to be on the table.
"Wow, we're in for a treat today,"
Quan Zhilong said with a grin, carrying the cat
towards Mother Quan. Wu Yunxi, though silent, smiled as well.
"Yeah, but we have guests upstairs right now. You guys can play for a while. I'll call you when it's time for dinner."
Mother Quan rarely cooked for herself anymore. Since opening the resort and hiring a chef, she'd had a lot more free time. Plus, the children rarely came home, so it was usually just the two of them at home, so they often just ate at the restaurant.
Seeing her children home was a rare sight, and Mother Quan was delighted. After taking some food and handing it off to Father Quan, she returned to prepare a delicious meal for Quan Zhilong and Wu Yunxi.
"Auntie, let me help you."
Although Mother Quan had told Quan Zhilong and Wu Yunxi to wait, Wu Yunxi felt a little restless. If she were at home, she would probably feel at ease.
Quan Zhilong, noticing Wu Yunxi's uneasiness, offered to help. The young couple went into the kitchen together, one helping to wash the vegetables while Wu Yunxi helped to chop them. After they finished, Mother Quan sent them out again.
"Okay, okay, that's good. Yunxi, it's a good thing you're watching Zhilong, otherwise he really wouldn't enter the kitchen."
Mother Quan could actually see Wu Yunxi's thoughts. It was rare for her son to be so obedient in the kitchen, and she didn't mean to say that her own children couldn't use the kitchen.
Mother Quan always believed that relying on others was better than relying on oneself, so she hoped that her children could learn something. Quan Zhilong used to live outside. Although he was rich, his food was really perfunctory. But now it's all right.
"Then let's go for a walk."
Quan Zhilong, who was kicked out, took Wu Yunxi outside. When he reached the door, he didn't forget to say hello to his mother before opening the door and walking out.
Wu Yunxi smiled and waved to Quan's mother, and followed Quan Zhilong out for a walk, not noticing that Quan Jiahu was following behind.
Because they were in the villa, Quan Jiahu was free most of the time, but he would be locked up in his home when there were guests, so it didn't cause much trouble. Just now, when Wu Yunxi was closing the door, Quan Jiahu slipped out from the gap.
The two walked on the path with their fingers intertwined. Because there were customers in front, Quan Zhilong and Wu Yunxi tacitly didn't go forward. Of course, they still had the possibility of running into customers, but it would be much less likely than if they walked directly to the front.
"Oppa, can you save me two tickets for the concert?"
Wu Yunxi suddenly thought of this. Although she knew that relatives could still get tickets, she still asked Quan Jiyong in advance. She had originally planned to grab the tickets herself, but then she realized she'd never grabbed tickets before, and if she didn't get any, she'd miss out.
Quan Jiyong's first concert on the tour was very meaningful to Wu Yunxi, especially now that she wasn't completely independent. Of course, Quan Jiyong, the glittering figure on stage, was also the idol Wu Yunxi once loved, and the man she loved now and forever.
"Of course, even if you didn't ask, I would have saved them. I really want you to see it."
Quan Jiyong actually had a little surprise planned for Wu Yunxi, hoping she'd be able to see it in person instead of just seeing it online.
"I'll definitely go,"
Wu Yunxi vowed, raising her other hand. The adorable gesture made Quan Jiyong smile, and he took Wu Yunxi's hand away.
The two were now walking face to face, one forward, the other backward, yet their pace was uncanny.
Quan Jiahu, seeing his master's distracted movements, had been running around nearby and joined in the fun, nearly tripping Quan Zhilong. Fortunately, Wu Yunxi, keeping a watchful eye, quickly helped Quan Zhilong steady himself.
"Quan Jiahu!"
Quan Zhilong shouted as he ran away. Unfortunately, the dog had already run off, oblivious to Quan Zhilong's anger. He even occasionally turned his head to see if Quan Zhilong was catching up.
After running a distance, seeing that Quan Zhilong and Wu Yunxi hadn't followed, Quan Jiahu ran back. By then, Quan Zhilong was no longer angry, but for safety's sake, they resumed their previous walking pattern.
It was unknown how far they had walked, but neither Quan Zhilong nor Wu Yunxi kept track of the time. In this situation, both were quite relaxed, chatting and occasionally distracted by other things.
It wasn't until Quan's mother called that they turned back.
They'd originally been strolling around aimlessly, but the walk back was a bit faster than the outgoing one. After all, their elders were waiting for them to eat, and neither of them liked being kept waiting.
"Are you back? Wash your hands and eat."
Seeing Kwon Ji-yong open the door, Kwon's mother smiled and told him to wash his hands. Kwon's father had already washed his hands and sat down.
During the meal, Wu Yunxi mostly listened quietly. Kwon Ji-yong rarely shared details about his work with his parents, but he did let them know some things. After all, with Kwon Ji-yong's status, even if he didn't say anything, it would still make news online.
"Concert, are everything arranged?"
Kwon's mother and father had seen Kwon Ji-yong's concerts a few times, but they weren't used to it. It was just their children's growth and experiences, and as parents, they wanted to be a part of it. It was the same this time.
"Yes, everything's arranged. I've reserved the tickets for you."
Kwon's mother and father were both planning to go to the first show of the tour, and Kwon Ji-yong knew about it, so he had already planned it out.
"Okay."
Mother Quan didn't say much on this topic. She didn't know much about the child's work, but as long as it was good for the child, she would support it.
Wu Yunxi, who was eating quietly, would occasionally receive dishes from Mother Quan. She ate until she was very full. When she put down her chopsticks, she couldn't help but want to rub her stomach to relieve the fullness at this time. But seeing that the elders were around, she held back.
