Peninsula: The Great Producer

Chapter 257 Confused Lee Ji-eun, calm Ki Yo-jiu, and satisfied family.

"Grandma, Dad, Mom, I'm back"

Lee Ji-eun's voice came from the door. Except for grandma, father, uncle, mother, aunt and cousin Zhang Enxi all gathered in front of the living room subconsciously.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the entrance.

Lee Jong-hoon came in first and said excitedly, "Ouni and brother are here, and there are many gifts."

The corners of adults' mouths twitched, and children's words were just innocent. How could such words be said out loud?

The person who entered the house behind Lee Jong-hoon was Lee Ji-eun. She was standing at the entrance with bags in both hands and talking to the person behind her.

The last person to enter the room was a tall young man.

The face is familiar.

The adults in front of the living room recognized the man as Qi Yaojiu at a glance.

Everyone has seen "Earthbound" starring Lee Ji-eun. Ki Yo-gu also appeared in the show, but no one noticed it at the time because Ki Yo-gu was sitting on the floor hosting the game. But today, especially when he stands next to Lee Ji-eun, the size difference is too obvious.

There are no extra slippers at home, but the floor has been mopped several times since yesterday, and it was wiped clean with a towel this morning.

Qi Yaojiu is actually not used to going barefoot, and he feels uncomfortable even wearing socks.

Just doing as the Romans do, watching Lee Ji-eun skillfully take off her shoes and walk in wearing only socks, Ki Yo-jiu also took off his shoes and walked towards the living room wearing only socks.

"you go"

"you go"

Standing side by side in front of the living room, Li Zhien's parents pushed each other.

Li Zhien looked up and saw that except for her grandmother, everyone was crowded in the front of the living room. The key point was that there was no extra expression on everyone's face. The scene was as if they were united to fight the enemy, which was a bit intimidating.

"Dad, mom, aunt, uncle, cousin."

Li Zhien greeted everyone one by one, and when she saw that everyone was looking at her, she mouthed a reminder: "Smile, smile, relax."

As soon as he grinned, Ji Yaojiu was already next to Li Zhien.

The only voice in the quiet room was Qi Yaojiu's. He bowed politely and said, "Hello, elders. I'm Qi Yaojiu. It's our first meeting. Please take care of me."

His voice was loud and clear, and he maintained proper etiquette and a generous posture. After greeting, he immediately gave the gift: "I am really sorry to bother you elders. This is my first visit and I don't know what you would like, so I prepared a few gifts casually."

IU winked at her father frantically.

Why is the whole family silent? It would be so awkward for Qi Yaojiu to be the only one there greeting and talking.

Li Zhien's father reacted and said, "Welcome, welcome. Our whole family has been waiting for PDnim to come."

Li Zhien's mother agreed: "Yes, yes, I have always wanted to meet PDnim. Welcome, welcome."

Qi Yaojiu responded politely: "Thank you, uncle and aunt, you can just call me Qi Yaojiu."

uncle?aunt?
Li Zhien's parents looked at each other. This name...

The aunt and uncle behind them also looked at each other.

Young people are very capable. It seems that he has a special relationship with Ji Eun, otherwise why would he call them uncle and aunt before a formal introduction?
Qi Yaojiu's confidence and composure gave everyone a very good first impression.

Of course, Ji Yaojiu would not make a mistake. Lee Ji-eun looks very similar to her mother and it is impossible for him to recognize the wrong person. In addition, her younger brother Lee Jong-hoon stood directly next to Lee Ji-eun's father. They were almost cast in the same mold, so it was easy to judge.

The middle-aged couple behind her must be the uncle and aunt that Lee Ji-eun mentioned, who live in Gwangju and take care of her, her younger brother and her grandmother.

Another girl who is about the same age as Lee Ji-eun must be Lee Ji-eun’s cousin Zhang Enxi.

Li Zhien realized it later and said, "Let me introduce..."

Li Zhien's mother smiled and said, "Zhien, go see grandma first."

With respect to elders and young people, such a family atmosphere and parenting education are definitely impeccable.

There was no need for a separate introduction, as everyone knew Ki Yo-gu, who also immediately recognized Lee Ji-eun's parents. As for her aunt and uncle, it wouldn't be too late to introduce them after they'd met and greeted grandma. It was a little hesitant.

IU's father wanted to help get the things, but Ji Yaojiu wanted to take them to the living room by himself. Finally, IU's father took the things in front of IU, and the crowd dispersed. Only then did Ji Yaojiu see his grandmother sitting on the sofa with a kind face, an upright posture and white hair.

"Grandma~"

Lee Ji-eun ran up with her arms open, acting coquettishly, hugged her grandmother and told her affectionately how much she missed her grandmother during this period.

Compared to her parents, Lee Ji-eun has a better relationship with her grandmother, which Ji Yaojiu has also heard from Lee Ji-eun.

When Lee Ji-eun first lived at her grandmother's house in the countryside, she had to travel through mountains and rivers to study. The living conditions were very poor, but her grandmother always left the best for Lee Ji-eun and Lee Jong-hoon.

Lee Ji-eun is also very sensible. She goes to the market to help after school. She also picks some wild vegetables to sell. After earning money, she buys snacks such as fish cakes, mung bean cakes, and fried dough twists to share with her grandmother.

Grandma caressed Li Zhien's head and cheeks lovingly, and said softly: "Our Zhien has lost weight. You must be very tired."

Unable to withstand such concern from her grandma, Li Zhien pretended to be calm and said, "How could that be? The company just said that I gained weight again. Grandma, you don't know that everyone in the company takes good care of me. My agent Oppa also buys me a lot of delicious food, and Oppa also often takes me to eat barbecue and other things."

As she was speaking, Li Zhien quickly introduced her to her grandmother: "Grandma, this is Qi Yaojiu Oppa."

Qi Yaojiu stood opposite his grandmother and greeted her politely: "Hello, grandma. My name is Qi Yaojiu."

After all, she was the oldest elder, so she just sat calmly on the sofa and nodded and said, "Thank you for always taking care of our Ji Eun."

Ki Yoo-gu politely responded, "No, I should be the one thanking Ji-eun for taking the time to have dinner with me."

The eyes are different.

Grandma looked at Qi Yaojiu carefully from head to toe.

The smile on her face remained, and she nodded slightly, seeming very satisfied with Qi Yaojiu.

Li Zhien leaned close to her grandmother's ear and whispered: "Grandma, don't look at Oppa like that, it feels weird."

Grandma didn't seem to hear what Li Zhien said. Instead, she looked at Li Zhien's parents standing on the right and nodded slightly. Then she turned her gaze to Qi Yaojiu and slowly said, "How old are you this year?"

Qi Yaojiu is no novice. With this opening statement, he has almost thought of all the questions that will be asked later.

He replied, "Grandma, I'm 23 years old."

Grandma muttered: "23 years old, not too old"

Then he asked, "Who are the people in your family?"

Qi Yaojiu continued to answer: "My grandmother is at home and lives in Wancai Island."

Grandma asked again: "What are your hobbies? Do you smoke? Do you drink?"

Qi Yaojiu said slowly: "Grandma, I don't smoke, but I drink occasionally."

"Are you in good health?"

"health"

"Are you in love?"

Lee Ji-eun couldn't stand it anymore. What kind of questions were these? She tried to stop her grandmother, but was ignored by her again.

Qi Yaojiu also answered honestly: "No, I was studying before, and I have been very busy since work."

"Hard work is indeed the most important thing. I heard from Jieun that you started out as a PD at a broadcast station and now you've started your own company. Is this your future career plan?"

IU was completely confused and turned to look at her parents, who were listening very attentively.

Looking at my uncle and aunt again, they were smiling and nodding their heads, looking very satisfied.

Until her eyes met with her cousin Zhang Enxi, Li Zhien widened her eyes and shook her head frantically.

All because Zhang Enxi mouthed to Li Zhien: "Future brother-in-law?"
