146. Plans to go home together to celebrate the New Year
As for the duck neck, even if Liu Xin'an and Li Chenglu are not particularly good at spicy food, they can still eat a lot of it "shasshar".
What's more, there's sugar-free Coke as a pairing.
For Bae Zhuhyun, this sweet and spicy snack captured her heart immediately.
Her red lips were stained with moist oil from the duck's neck. Pei Zhuhyun wore gloves and picked up the sugar-free Coke beside her, biting the straw.
After the sound of air came out of the Coke can, she raised her hand and wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand that was not stained with oil.
"Be sure to buy some of this and take it with you when you go back. I want to go back and let Seulgi and the others try it."
Pei Zhuxuan breathed a sigh of relief and pointed at the duck products on the table with a look of emotion on her face.
"That's easy to say."
Of course Liu Xin'an would not stop this trivial matter. He gnawed on the tip of the duck's wing and raised his eyes to look at Li Chenglu who was standing aside.
"When this event is over, do you want to go there with me?"
Li Chenglu was eating lotus root slices and shook his head when he heard this.
"No, I have to go back to work, otherwise Lao Wang will get in trouble with me."
Lao Wang is now Li Chenglu’s immediate boss.
Liu Xin'an also knew the other party. The age difference between the other party and them was not too big. When he was in China, he would always bring a barbecue to Lao Wang and Li Chenglu for dinner.
Of course, Lao Wang is already married, and his sister-in-law and everyone know each other, so there is no bloody plot about Lao Wang having a crush on Li Chenglu.
"By the way, under what name did you ask for leave this time?"
"I'm on annual leave."
"Annual leave? Isn't your annual leave only seven days?"
"If it exceeds the limit, let him deduct his salary. Anyway, his studio can't do without me."
Li Chenglu is called arrogant. She is considered a signature character in the studio. Unless Lao Wang is crazy, there is no way he would think of firing her.
"What does Cheng Lu do?"
"Me? I am simultaneous interpreter, simultaneous interpreter."
"oh..."
Pei Zhuxuan still knows this job, but she also knows that people with stupid brains will definitely not be qualified for this job.
Just like her.
In fact, simultaneous interpretation is not scarce. What is really scarce are those who can do business simultaneous interpretation.
This kind of simultaneous interpretation requires a very high level of knowledge because it involves a lot of proper nouns. If you don't specialize in this aspect, this job will not be easy to get.
Li Chenglu is an out-and-out linguistic genius.
In addition, she has the humorous nature of a Jincheng native, so Li Chenglu is considered a well-known figure in the field of simultaneous interpretation.
The person is still so beautiful.
"Then if we go to do activities abroad in the future, can we invite you?"
"If Sister Eileen can find my place! I will go up to the mountain of swords and the sea of fire!"
"Ah! No, it's too exaggerated."
Liu Xin'an chuckled: "Your company won't spend so much money to find her. She specializes in simultaneous interpretation for public or corporate purposes. There is no need to find a professional like Li Chenglu. Her price is very expensive."
"That's right, that's true."
Pei Zhuxuan nodded. Indeed, S-M is not too generous. If it comes to translation... you can find a local student to do it.
No need to spend a lot of money.
"I won't charge you to be a translator for Sister Eileen!"
"Go, go, go, your spoken language is not as good as mine now."
"...Give me a month."
Li Chenglu sighed, it was true. No matter how talented she was in language, she could never compare to Liu Xin'an, who had been speaking Korean with Park Zhenshu since she was a child.
It's a pity that she didn't learn it back then, otherwise she wouldn't be dissed by Liu Xin'an like this now.
"It will be Chinese New Year in a month...ah!"
Liu Xin'an suddenly remembered that he hadn't mentioned asking Pei Zhuhyun to accompany him back for the New Year.
He quickly put down the duck wings in his hand, picked up the Coke and took a big sip, then turned to look at Bae Zhuhyun.
"Joohyuna, how about we discuss something?"
"Hmm? Do you need my help with something?"
"right."
Pei Zhuxuan also became interested. After being together for so long, she seemed to have never helped Liu Xin'an.
It was rare that her boyfriend encountered difficulties, and she decided that no matter what it was, she would agree to it.
One minute later.
“Ha?! No no no no!
Pei Zhuhyun's beautiful face showed a look of horror. She waved her hands and stood up subconsciously, as if there was something terrifying in front of her.
Because just thirty seconds ago, Liu Xin'an formally invited her.
It was an invitation to take her home to celebrate the New Year together.
Although she is not a Chinese, she knows what the traditional Chinese New Year means to a Chinese.
Although she was overjoyed to be formally invited by Liu Xin'an.
But what followed... was the fear of meeting Liu Xin'an's parents.
In fact, when she asked Li Chenglu about Liu Xin'an's parents in the afternoon, she was already sorting out her mood.
I just didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
She almost choked on the sweet and spicy duck neck in her mouth.
"Cough cough cough..."
Liu Xin'an quickly handed over the drink on the side.
Pei Zhuxuan took a sip, suppressing the itching sensation in her throat, and then raised her eyes to look at Liu Xin'an pitifully.
"I'm not mentally prepared yet."
Well, she's cunning and bad.
Obviously when he asked Liu Xin'an to go home before, Liu Xin'an didn't hesitate too much.
At that time, Liu Xin'an was so nervous that he had to walk with a limp, but he was still willing to agree to go back with her.
But what about her?
She was really guilty and panicked.
He was panicking because he couldn't put his best foot forward to meet Liu Xin'an's parents.
Feeling guilty...
My identity as an artist.
In their country, artists can be liked, but no one is willing to marry them.
"Yes, Liu Xin'an, why are you in such a hurry? It has only been so long, and you want to take Sister Eileen home! I won't agree!"
Li Chenglu also joined in causing trouble. Of course, she was just joining in the fun.
Whether she goes back or not has little to do with her, and it won't affect her getting new year's money from Liu Xin'an's parents.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yes, it’s 27... No, it’s January, it should be 28.
Even though she is 28, she still gets New Year's money from her parents and Liu Xin'an's parents.
There is no shame in this!
Before you get married, you will always be a child who has not grown up!
"Well...actually, the main reason is that I made a bet with my dad."
"Huh?" Li Chenglu was stunned.
Although Pei Zhuxuan on the side didn't quite understand, he still pricked up his ears.
Liu Xin'an knew that explaining his mother's affairs was quite troublesome, so he did not explain directly, but looked at Li Chenglu.
"You should know why I went to Korea."
"Uh... you haven't given up yet?" Li Chenglu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and said in surprise.
Pei Zhuxuan was even more confused now, but she also noticed that Liu Xin'an didn't want to explain to her.
She quickly reached out and took Liu Xin'an's arm.
"What are you talking about? Why did you come to our country? Didn't you say you came to travel?"
Because of the unknown, Pei Zhuhyun began to panic subconsciously.
She was afraid that Liu Xin'an came here with a purpose and would leave after achieving his purpose.
She can't accept it.
Sensing his girlfriend's panic, Liu Xin'an coughed, took off his gloves and gently squeezed the girl's ungloved hand, comforting the girl in this way.
"You misunderstood Juhyun. I came to Goryeo because of my mother's affairs. My mother came to our country alone more than 30 years ago. After that, she met my father and married him, but she never mentioned her.
I was very curious about life in Korea when I was very young, but I never had the chance. Now that I have the freedom to work and am at this age...so I want to try to see if I can contact my mother's former family members.
"
Liu Xin'an tried his best to explain what happened in his family in a concise way.
After hearing this, Pei Zhuxuan opened her mouth slightly. After finally digesting all this, the first reaction that came to her mind was...
"But since Auntie ran to China on her own, does it mean that she doesn't want to face her former family?"
Liu Xin'an nodded. When he gave up the idea at first, it was also because of these, but...
"Every year when family reunion holidays come, I feel that my mother will be a little lonely."
This was not just once or twice. Many times Liu Xin'an would see his mother sitting quietly aside as if she was missing something.
He asked, but his mother didn't say anything, she just looked at him and smiled.
This made him very angry.
Whatever was going on, he wanted to figure it all out.
There shouldn't be so many hidden things between a family.
Pei Zhuxuan nodded, understanding this, but soon, new doubts arose in her heart.
"Then what does this have to do with me going to your house?"
This time it was Liu Xin'an's turn to be embarrassed.
He showed an awkward smile: "I made a bet with my father. He said that as long as I can bring my girlfriend back, he will tell me the inside story of these things."
"..."
"..."
This time, both Pei Zhuxuan and Li Chenglu were silent.
Fortunately for Pei Zhuxuan, she didn't think too much. After learning that this was a very important matter for Liu Xin'an, she carefully thought about whether to agree to Liu Xin'an.
As for Li Chenglu...
I simply feel that I am a bit stupid for being young.
"It's really stupid."
"Stupid? Me? What happened to me?"
"Do you feel that by hiding your love from your parents, you have the initiative?"
"Otherwise? My dad doesn't know that I'm in love here, and I'm warning you, don't talk too much!"
"I don't have that free time, but if you think about it carefully, whether you take your girlfriend back or not, what will dad and the others lose?"
Liu Xin'an was stunned. He thought carefully about Li Chenglu's words, and then his eyes widened.
It seems...that's really what happened, huh?
"Damn it, I was tricked by my dad!"
After thinking about it, Liu Xin'an shouted, startling Pei Zhuxuan who was thinking about whether to agree to Liu Xin'an's request.
She pursed her lips, thinking for a long time but couldn't think of a good answer, and finally had to show an aggrieved expression.
"Can you let me think about it...I...I have to make sure there is no work during that time."
It's very convenient to go. Her visa hasn't expired yet, and the New Year is only a few days away. You can just use it then.
It's just that she hasn't convinced herself to face this calmly yet.
Did Liu Xin'an feel this nervous when he went to her house with her?
Bae Zhuhyun suddenly respects her boyfriend extremely.
"Ah, don't rush, there's still some time left, you can think about it slowly, it'll be okay if you don't agree."
"Well?"
Liu Xin'an gritted his teeth and did not answer Pei Zhuxuan's doubts.
Li Chenglu, who was out of breath because of Liu Xin'an's stupid laughter, explained to Pei Zhuxuan very considerately.
"No...it's okay. This kid was tricked by his father and is now angry."
"Calculation?"
"Yes, think about it, Sister Eileen, whether he takes you back or not, for mom and dad, this is a sure-profit business."
g.
Pei Zhuxuan showed a blank expression: "Huh?"
Well, it seems Liu Xin'an is not the only one who is stupid.
