"what?"
Chi Jingyuan, who had been chatting and laughing, was taken aback when he heard the invitation from Mingjing's mother. He glanced at Mingjing Mina, whose expression was also a bit strange, and felt helpless.
Visiting someone's home is something only a boyfriend, and not just any boyfriend, but a boyfriend who has met the family and gained their approval, would do.
Even when they were still dating, Chi Jingyuan didn't really like this... If they hadn't broken up before, he could have agreed to it to take care of Mina.
But now...
If you bump into each other by chance, it's fine to put on an act, but if you actually visit someone's home, things can get complicated and complicated.
Although he was touched by his uncle and aunt's enthusiasm and felt a little embarrassed, Chi Jingyuan still knew his own limits and boundaries.
"Oh yes, Xiao Nan did tell me that the uncle and aunt were very enthusiastic..."
A thousand thoughts raced through his mind, but Chi Jingyuan showed no sign of it on his face. He first nodded seriously, agreeing with Mingi Xingzi's suggestion, and then sighed with a hint of regret: "It's just that our schedule in Japan this time is too tight. After the fireworks festival tomorrow, we have to rush back to the peninsula overnight, so..."
He hadn't finished speaking, but the regret in his eyes was clearly visible.
Mina, who had been smiling the whole time, pursed her lips almost imperceptibly the moment she heard him speak. Her fingertips unconsciously fiddled with a stray strand of hair, and her lowered eyelashes cast a faint shadow under her eyes, concealing the complex emotions churning within them.
...The moment her mother extended the invitation, her heart tightened, and worry and anxiety almost burst from her chest. Yet at the same time, a quiet expectation, which she herself could not quite describe, rose from the depths of her heart.
At this moment, upon hearing Chi Jingyuan's tactful refusal, she breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, a complex emotion welled up in her heart that was hard to describe. It was like cherry blossoms scattered by the wind, light and airy, yet heavy and heavy in her heart.
...But, this is probably for the best.
Although Sachiko Nai felt a little disappointed upon hearing this, she understood.
...To be honest, although it was her husband's idea, she also felt that it was a bit inappropriate to directly invite Chi Jingyuan to their home, since they didn't know how far Chi Jingyuan and Mina had progressed.
But she really felt very good about this young boy. He left a very good and deep impression on her every time they met, and it got even better after she learned more about Chi Jingyuan... More importantly, she knew her daughter very well and knew how much she cared about this boyfriend.
“It’s alright, work is more important, then…” Mingi Sachiko waved her hand to tell Chi Jingyuan not to worry, and just as she was about to say something more, the door to the private room behind Chi Jingyuan was suddenly opened.
"Let's go quickly, Jingyuan might already be..."
Wu Shixun turned back to urge him on as he led the way out, but as soon as he stepped out the door and looked up, he suddenly noticed the situation outside. His voice stopped abruptly as he looked at Chi Jingyuan and the unfamiliar Mingjing couple, completely bewildered. At the same time, he reacted very quickly, subtly glancing at Chi Jingyuan, trying to exchange a glance with him to figure out what was going on.
Kim Junmyeon and Do Kyungsoo, who were talking behind them, stopped in their tracks and looked at Ji Kyungwon.
"...Uncle and Aunt, these are my group members and friends. We came together, and they all know Xiao Nan."
When Chi Jingyuan saw them, he didn't say anything. He simply looked at Mingjing and his wife and introduced them with a smile.
After saying that, he looked at the three members behind him, gesturing with his eyes as he introduced them, "You all know Xiao Nan, and these two are her parents... Isn't it a coincidence that I ran into them as soon as I went out?"
"what?"
Wu Sehun couldn't help but exclaim in surprise... He was the one in EXO who knew the most about the situation between Ji Kyungwon and Mina. When he heard that the two people in front of him were Mina's parents, he immediately felt a strong sense of absurdity.
At the same time, he glanced at Chi Jingyuan, who was smiling, and just looking at him made him feel a little embarrassed for the man.
However, after taking a quick look at the Mingjing couple, Wu Shixun noticed that the two uncles and aunts were smiling very kindly, seemingly... unaware of their daughter's story with the scumbag in front of them.
Although many thoughts flashed through his mind, they only lasted for about a second before Wu Sehun quickly composed himself and greeted Mina's parents.
Hello, uncles and aunts.
Hello, uncles and aunties!
Kim Junmyeon and Do Kyungsoo were a little slower, but they quickly caught on and greeted him as well. Because the other person was Ji Kyungwon's elder, they were very respectful and polite, speaking in Japanese and even bowing slightly to show their respect.
"Hello, hello."
Mina's parents greeted them warmly, and Mina Yang, with his shiny bald head, looked at the EXO members next to Ji Kyung-won and said with a smile, "They are all really outstanding young people..."
The atmosphere is great.
It seemed that Mina's parents wanted to continue chatting with Ji Kyung-won, but after Oh Se-hun and the others came out, it was clear that they were preparing to leave, so it wasn't appropriate to continue the conversation.
Sachiko was embraced by Mina on her right arm, while walking side by side with Kyung-won on her left. They chatted as they walked, and only when they reached the door did they reluctantly say goodbye to Kyung-won, who was heading to the parking lot.
Judging from her expression, she clearly had a good impression of this chance encounter.
"...This child is really quite good."
After seeing Chi Jingyuan and the others leave, Ming Jingnan also came out of the hot pot restaurant. As soon as she stepped outside, recalling the chance encounter, Ming Jingnan's father couldn't help but start praising her: "She is very polite. Her words and manners are clearly well-trained, which makes her very pleasant to be around. With her speech and demeanor, you can tell after a little contact that she is a well-mannered rich kid."
They may have met by chance before but didn't pay much attention. This was the first time Mina's father had met Ji Kyung-won after learning that Mina and Ji Kyung-won were dating.
It has to be said that although his wife had praised his daughter's boyfriend many times before, none of them had left as deep an impression on him as this meeting.
Although it was just a simple, polite exchange without saying much, many details were easily noticed by Meiyo, who had seen a lot in his life.
The Mei family was already quite wealthy, and as an orthopedic professor, he was highly respected in the Japanese medical field and had met many young people from prominent families, but most of them did not give him the same good feeling as Chi Jingyuan.
However, it could also be due to Mina's connection to the character, and that's just a case of loving the house because of the dog.
...However, Mingjing's father felt it was also good. Putting aside his views on relationships, Chi Jingyuan's outward appearance was the best, thanks to his elite family education.
After saying that, he clicked his tongue as if he had thought of something, and added in a strange tone:
"And he's really good-looking... He looks like the kind of guy who's especially popular with girls."
