CHAPTER 31

 

 

“Congratulation Younho and Jaejoong”

 

Jongwoon and Ryeowook smile at them

 

“I’m sorry we missed the baptismal ceremony, I need to finish the press conference before Taeyeon can let me go”

 

“It’s ok Hyung, we understand how busy you are”

 

Younho pats his shoulder; Jaejoong drags Ryeowook with her

 

“How are you dear?”

 

“Still the same Unnie”

 

Jaejoong carry the sleeping Junsu on her arms and show him to Ryeowook

 

“You owe me a million dollar dear. First, you didn’t came to visit me at the hospital when I give birth and second, you missed the baptismal ceremony of my Junsu”

 

“I’m really sorry Unnie, Jongwoon and I went in France to have vacation and I need to go to school to finish my enrollment because school will start again soon. Jongwoon needs to finish his press conference that’s why we’re late, please don’t get mad at me”

 

Jaejoong smile

 

“I’m just kidding dear; I’m glad that you’re here”

 

“Can I carry the baby?”

 

“Sure”

 

Jaejoong give her the baby, Ryeowook carefully carries him while smiling. Jaejoong watch her happily

 

“I’m sure you’re going to be a good mother someday”

 

Ryeowook stares at her sadly

 

“Why?”

 

“I hope I can have a baby too”

 

Jaejoong Ryeowook’s hair gently

 

“Of course you’ll have one, you don’t need to lose your hope and keep trying. No need to pressure yourself, just take it slow”

 

“I hope so Unnie”

 

Younho walks towards them with Jongwoon; Ryeowook smile at her husband

 

“Hubby look, Junsu is so cute”

 

Jongwoon smile while staring at the baby

 

 

“You’ve got a very cute son Younho. Daebak”

 

Younho smile at him

 

“Because I’m handsome”

 

“Yeah right, it’s because of Jaejoongie; she’s beautiful that’s why”

 

Younho laugh

 

“You better hurry Hyung so Wookie will be pregnant soon”

 

“We keep on trying”

 

“I really wish you the best”

 

“Thanks”

 

Jongwoon and Ryeowook needs to leave early because Hankyung calls Ryeowook informing her to visit the house because Sungmin and Kyuhyun are already backed from their honeymoon

 

“Li xu!”

 

Ryeowook was welcome by Sungmin’s warm hug

 

“I miss you Unnie”

 

“I miss you too sweetheart; it’s been three months since I haven’t seen you”

 

Sungmin look at Jongwoon and smile at him

 

“I miss you too Jongwoon”

 

“It’s great to see you again Minnie”

 

Jongwoon hug her and approach Kyuhyun

 

“How are you Kyu? You look so great, is that the result of having a wife?”

 

Kyuhyun smile at him

 

“Yes, because Minnie is such a great wife, she always takes care of me”

 

“Good thing that you’re back, I really thought that you don’t have any plan on going back in Seoul”

 

“Minnie wants to stay there for three months and I also deserve a vacation so I can spend a lot of time with my wife”

 

Sungmin sit besides Heechul while Ryeowook sit on their mother’s lap

 

“How’s the honeymoon Unnie?”

 

Sungmin smile brightly

 

“Its fun and I really love Venice that’s why I told Kyu if we could stay there for three months, so I can travel around for a long period of time”

 

“Where do you plan to stay?”

 

“Well, Kyu and I plan to stay here for a week before transferring to our house in Incheon”

 

“Are you still going to work?”

 

“Yes, but I’ll return to my work when the baby is three years old already”

 

Ryeowook stare at her sister blankly, Heechul hold her face and smile at her

 

“Minnie got good news”

 

Ryeowook stare at her mother then to her sister

 

“Sweetheart, I’m pregnant”

 

Ryeowook smile brightly and hug her sister

 

“Wow, that’s really great news and I’m so happy for you Unnie”

 

“Thanks sweetheart and I hope that you can be pregnant soon so that my baby will have a playmate”

 

“We keep on trying”

 

“You’ll soon have one sweetheart”

 

Sungmin smile at her; Hankyung clears his throat and look at them happily

 

“I have something to say”

 

They look at him curiously

 

“We’re going in Beijing next week. Mama wants to see Jongwoon and Kyuhyun because she didn’t had the chance to attend your weddings because of a very busy schedule and she misses us already”

 

“That’s great, I miss Nainai too and it’s been a long time since I last visit Beijing”

 

Ryeowook smile brightly while hugging her father; Heechul laugh softly

 

“Our baby is excited to visit her boyfriends again”

 

Ryeowook blush while staring at Jongwoon

 

“I don’t have a boyfriend mama”

 

Heechul smile to

 

“Then who is Jonghyun?”

 

“Just my admirer”

 

Heechul smile at her

 

“But Jongwoon is better than him, right?”

 

“Of course”

 

Heechul smile at Jongwoon who is staring at Ryeowook blankly

 

“Someone is jealous here”

 

Jongwoon look at his mother in law

 

“I’m not jealous”

 

“Then why are you so defensive”

 

Heechul smile

 

“Let’s go at the dinning room and have a snack, I’m hungry”

 

Heechul smile and drag Hankyung with her while the rest follows them at the dinning room

 

 

 

 

 

Jongwoon was driving the car quietly

 

“Hubby”

 

“Yes babe”

 

“Mianhae”

 

“For?”

 

Ryeowook stares at him with teary eyes

 

“Because I’m not yet pregnant; I know you already want to have a child”

 

“Babe don’t be like that, the right time will come for that”

 

“I envy Jaejoong Unnie and Minnie Unnie”

 

“You don’t have to and besides you’re not yet visiting your doctor again”

 

“I’m scared; the result will just be the same”

 

“Just try and if the result is still the same we need to try again”

 

Jongwoon smile to cheer her up

 

“Please don’t be upset babe”

 

Ryeowook sigh

 

“By the way is Nainai strict? I mean is she scary?”

 

Ryeowook laugh softly

 

“Don’t be scared of her, she’s a good grandmother and very sweet just like ba ba and mama”

 

“I hope she’s not weird like mama”

 

Ryeowook shook her head

 

“Of course not”

 

“I’m just nervous to meet her. It’s my first time meeting her unlike Kyu, he already meets Nainai thrice”

 

“Don’t be nervous because Nainai is really great”

 

“You think she’ll like me?”

 

Ryeowook nod happily

 

“Of course”

 

“I hope so, but I don’t know how to speak Mandarin, we can’t understand each other”

 

“That’s not a problem because she can speak Korean and English so well. You can either speak to her in English or Korean”

 

“Wow that’s great”

 

“I’m so excited to see Nainai again and I really miss Beijing so much”

 

“I’m excited to meet Nainai and see the beauty of Beijing; your homeland”

 

Jongwoon smile at her; Ryeowook suddenly hold her head

 

“Babe, what’s wrong?”

 

“I suddenly felt dizzy”

 

“You want to go to the hospital?”

 

“No, I’m fine. I’m just tired and maybe I’m having my hormone imbalance again. I always feel like this whenever I’m having imbalances”

 

“You don’t have medicine for that?”

 

Ryeowook shook her head

 

“Are you sure you’re ok?”

 

Ryeowook nod

 

“Yes, don’t worry”

 

“You need to take a rest and don’t stress yourself because you’re going to start schooling again after next week”

 

“I almost forgot that, after Beijing I’m back to school again”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ryeowook was lying on the sofa while waiting for Jongwoon. She feels so tired and dizzy again. She grabs Dabong and put him on her tummy while patting his head. Jongwoon came down carrying all their things.

 

“Let’s go babe”

 

Ryeowook look at him

 

“Why?”

 

“I feel dizzy”

 

“You want to cancel our vacation in Beijing? I’m going to call mama now”

 

Ryeowook pout

 

“No way”

 

“But you don’t feel nice”

 

“I just need to sleep and I’ll be fine again”

 

Jongwoon look at her with worried face

 

“What’s happening to you babe?”

 

“I just feel so tired”

 

“Because you always sleep late”

 

“I’m studying”

 

“It’s still early to study. You still have this week before school start again”

 

Ryeowook sigh

 

“I need to study in advance and music is hard so I really need to focus my attention in studying and learning new music and I’m waiting for you to get home that’s why”

 

“Babe, I keep on telling you not to wait for me because my schedules usually finish so late”

 

“But I can’t sleep without you and you know it”

 

Jongwoon sits beside her, she rest her feet on her lap

 

“Hubby, I’m fine please. Don’t worry”

 

“Are you sure?”

 

“Yes”

 

“You better get up now because we still need to drop Dabong at home so Bummie can take care of him while we’re out for vacation”

 

“Arasso”

 

Ryeowook stand and smile at him. She put Dabong inside his basket and follows Jongwoon at the lobby as his drivr fetch them

 

 

 

 

*BEIJING AIRPORT*

 

 

Ryeowook and Sungmin hug each other

 

“Wo men zhong yu hui dao le bei jing” (Finally we’re back in Beijing)

 

“Wo zhen xiang nian bei jing” (I miss Beijing so much)

 

Ryeowook smile at her sister

 

“Me too, Unnie let’s visit the usual place we used to hang out before”

 

“I love it sweetheart”

 

Ryeowook and Sungmin walk towards Heechul

 

“Mama, wo men yao zhu zai na li?” (Mama, where are we going to stay?)

 

“We’re going to stay at our hacienda for three days then we will transfer to our manor”

 

Ryeowook and Sungmin smile at each other

 

“Li xu zhe tai hao le, wo men you ke yi zai zuo che xiang le” (Li xu this is great, we’re gonna to ride the carriage again)

 

“I’m going to see my horse again. I hope she can still recognize me after a long period of time”

 

Heechul hold her daughter’s cheek

 

“Of course honey, your horse can still recognize you. I think you should practice your equestrian skills again”

 

“Shi de mama, we ye yao lian wo de shejian. Wo zhen xiang nian zhe xie dong xi” (Yes Mama and I’m gonna practice my archery too. I miss those things)

 

Heechul smile at her daughters. Hankyung walks towards them with Jongwoon and Kyuhyun. Lots of bodyguards start to arrive to accompany them, while the press people from different country start chasing Hankyung.

 

“Chullie, you go ahead with your daughters. Whatever the media asked you, do not answer any of them”

 

“Ok, I’ll wait for you inside the car”

 

Hankyung orders the bodyguards to protect his wife and daughters from the press people. Ryeowook and Sungmin were shocked when the press starts chasing them too. Kyuhyun hold Sungmin tight as Heechul hold her daughters close to her and hide their faces away from the camera. Jongwoon reach for his wife’s hand but it slipped from his when the press starts going crazy over him.

 

“Jong huan ni de jie hun sheng huo ze me yang?” (Jongwoon how’s your married life?)

 

Jongwoon just smile at the reporter because he can’t understand Mandarin. The reporter smile at him and kissed his cheek. One of the bodyguards drags Jongwoon away from her

 

“Shi wa Kimu Jon'iru Woon-san wa dono yō ni anata no tsumadesu ka? Anata ga kanojo to shiawasedesu ka?” (Mr. Kim Jongwoon how’s your wife? Are you happy with her?)

 

Jongwoon just smile at the Japanese reporter

 

“Are you not having a hard time because she’s a school girl?”

 

One of the German reporters asked him in English but Jongwoon just smile at her.

 

“How true that Ms. Han Ryeowook is against your new drama because she’s jealous of your leading lady?”

 

Jongwoon was about to answer the question, but Hankyung hold him closer.

 

“Don’t mind the media, do not answer any of their questions”

 

Jongwoon nod at him

 

“Arasso ba ba”

 

The press keeps on chasing them

 

“Han xian sheng ni wei shen me hui zai Beijing ne?” (Mr. Han, why are you here in Beijing?)

 

“Wo mei you ping lun” (No comment)

 

“Han xian sheng, ni shi bu zhen de yao chi zi? (Mr. Han, is it true that you’re gonna resign as China’s Ambassador?)

 

“Ni de da nu er de lao gong gui xian shi bus hi zhen de hui na ni de wei zi?” (Is it true that your eldest daughter’s husband, Cho Kyuhyun will succeed your position as China’s Ambassador?)

 

“Han xian sheng, ni de lao po he Jungsoo shi bus hi zhen de hui dang han guo de das hi?” (Mr. Han ,is it true that your wife Kim Heechul will be the new Ambassador of Korea along with Park Jungsoo?)

 

“Han xian sheng, ni de mama shi by zhen de hui ba beijing and gong si jiao gei ni de biao ge?”(Mr. Han, how true is it that your mother will hand over the Beijing Corporation to your cousin since you’re living in Korea permanently?)

 

“Wo bu xiang hui da ni qing bie da rao wo men” (No comment and I’m not going to answer anything so please leave us alone)

 

Hankyung keeps on walking while holding Jongwoon’s hand, ignoring the press. They arrive at the entrance of the airport; Jongwoon saw lots of cars outside waiting for them; he stares on it blankly as he became curious about it. Hankyung’s bodyguards escorted him inside the limousine wherein Heechul is already waiting for him. Jongwoon has been escorted by Ryeowook’s bodyguards towards the other limousine. He notices the plate number in which number 3 and some Chinese characters that he can’t understand are written on it. The guard opens the door for him; he went inside and saw Ryeowook smiling on him.

 

“You took so long out there”

 

“The press is going crazy with us. It’s hard to escape from them”

 

Jongwoon sigh

 

“Wow! Ba ba is really a daebak”

 

Ryeowook frown

 

“You’re enjoying the limelight especially that Chinese reporter who kissed you”

 

“It’s not my fault babe, she’s the one who kissed me”

 

“But you like it”

 

Jongwoon smile

 

“She’s pretty you know”

 

“YAH!”

 

“Just kidding babe”

 

“What did they asked you?”

 

Jongwoon shook his head

 

“I can’t understand some of them because it’s Mandarin and Japanese”

 

“You need to study soon”

 

Jongwoon hold his head

 

“I don’t know babe, honestly, it’s hard for me to learn other language. My teacher in English almost dies before I learn the language and I’m not that good in language like Kyu”

 

“Just try”

 

“I prefer you teaching me rather than getting a teacher to teach me your language”

 

“Ok”

 

Ryeowook smile at him

 

“Babe, can I asked something? I’m just curious as hell”

 

“Yes”

 

“How come there are a lot of cars waiting for us? I’m just curious, are we some kind of celebrity here?”

 

Ryeowook smile brightly at her curious husband

 

“All the black A5 cars are for the bodyguards while the three limousines are for us. One for ba ba and mama then to Unnie and Kyu Gege, and finally to us”

 

“Do we really need to ride separately from them?”

 

“Yes, that’s a rule. It’s an SOP”

 

Jongwoon raised his eyebrow

 

“SOP as in On Phone?”

 

“Pabo, what the hell is that?”

 

“Just kidding, but I’m still confused ok”

 

Ryeowook clears before speaking

 

“Hubby, it’s really like that. We used to ride separately whenever we’re going in Beijing or Shanghai”

 

“Huh? So weird”

 

“It’s really like that, you need to get used to it”

 

“What’s with the plate number?”

 

Jongwoon stare at her curiously

 

“Well, the plate number will tell you who is inside the car”

 

“What?”

 

“Hubby it’s like this…Nainai’s plate don’t have any number at all, you’ll just see a Chinese character written on it”

 

“How do you read it?”

 

“You’ll read it as Han then ba ba and mama’s plate number is 1 with a Chinese character read as Mr. Han then Unnie’s plate number is 2 and you’ll read the character as Han Cheng min, while mine is number 3 and you read the character as Han Li xu. All the bodyguards’ car has a plate number 5”

 

“Now I get it, so you’re sort of a princess?”

 

“Of course not, it’s because ba ba is the Ambassador of China”

 

“I see. Honestly, I really need to know more about you”

 

Ryeowook smile at him

 

“Is ba ba really strict when dealing with the press people?”

 

Ryeowook shook her head

 

“Yes, he and mama hate exposing us to the public because the press people are really uncontrollable and my parents are really strict when it comes to private life”

 

“That’s why mama keeps on hiding you and Minnie from them, and ba ba told me not to answer any question”

 

“Ba ba is really like that, he often answers press because he wants to keep everything in private”

 

“Being an Ambassador is really hard”

 

Ryeowook nod

 

“By the way hubby, don’t forget that whenever you’re in China, you’re not allowed to speak in front of the media without any permission from ba ba or nainai”

 

“I understand, your family is really private”

 

Ryeowook nods while smiling at him.

 

 

 

 

They arrive at the hacienda; Ryeowook and Jongwoon came out of the limousine and a woman in her 30’s walk towards them carrying an umbrella. Ryeowook smile at her.

 

“Nai nai ni hao, wo men hao jiu me jian le, wo hao xiang nian ni” (Hi nanny, it’s been a long time and I miss you)

 

“Wo ye hen xiang nian ni, ni hai xiang mama yi yang piao liang” (I miss you too young lady, you’re still beautiful like your mother)

 

“Xi xie nin, zhe shi wo de zhang fu, Kim Jongwoon” (Thanks, By the way this is my husband, Kim Jongwoon)

 

Ryeowook’s nanny smiles at him

 

“Ta bu zhi dao ze me shuo hua yu, qing dui ta jiang han yu” (He doesn’t know how to speak mandarin, please talk to him in Korean)

 

Her nanny nods, Ryeowook smile at Jongwoon

 

“Hubby, this is Chao-xing; one of my nanny, if you need something just call her”

 

Jongwoon smiles at Chao-xing. They walk towards Heechul and Hankyung who are inside the big glass house, sitting at the living room happily with Kyuhyun and Sungmin who is eating ripe mangoes; Jongwoon drags Kyuhyun at the corner.

 

“Is this the house?”

 

Kyuhyun shook his head

 

“No, we’re just waiting for the carriage to arrive”

 

“Carriage?”

 

“We need to ride the carriage to go at the mansion”

 

“But this is already a house or a mansion, whatever you call it”

 

“Of course not, this is just the receiving area you know”

 

Jongwoon stares at Kyuhyun blankly. His mind is really confused while looking around the big glass house with wooden blinds at the windows and the design is Old American Style with lots of bamboo trees outside, making it looks like a Japanase house; Kyuhyun look at him and pat his shoulder while smiling

 

“You need to talk to Li xu so you’ll know more about her”

 

“I think you’re right Kyu…so right”

 

Kyuhyun smirk

 

“Wow I never knew that the Han Family is very elite”

 

Kyuhyun nod at his confused cousin

 

“Yes they are, that’s what you get when you’re busy with your girls rather than spending a lot of time with your wife and get to know her more”

 

“You suppose to tell it to me”

 

Kyuhyun raised his eyebrow

 

“Excuse me it’s not my duty to tell you and besides you are bound to know it because you’re the husband of the well known billion dollar princess”

 

“Billion dollar princess?”

 

“It’s Li xu stupid”

 

Jongwoon stares at him curiously

 

“It’s your wife, that title is given to her and Minnie because the Han family belongs to the upper class and well known around the globe. They are really powerful in China”

 

“I also belong to the upper class ok”

 

Kyuhyun flick his forehead

 

“I know but…there is a but, FYI Kim Jongwoon, if I were you start surfing the net. We belong to the upper class family, but the Han family is much richer and famous than us”

 

“I didn’t heard much of them especially about Wookie”

 

“Because ba ba is a very private person and Han family is very strict when it comes to privacy, so you don’t hear much about them. I almost drop my jaw when I first went here and knowing about their family. If there’s a royal family in England, we can say that there’s also a royal family in China and that’s them. They just look so simple, but if you’re going to unveil their history you’ll find out that they are not just an ordinary person but very extraordinary, that’s why media loves them so much because they want to unveil the history of the Han family. But too bad they can’t get enough information about them because they are very private”

 

Jongwoon stare at him in amaze; Kyuhyun just smile at him while patting his shoulder

 

 

 

 

 

They arrived at the mansion, Jongwoon hold Ryeowook’s hand as she came down of the carriage. They went inside the mansion, Jongwoon was amaze while looking around because the house is really big as if five big houses are combined together and the structure and design of the house is really elegant; it looks like a palace rather than a house.

 

“I think I’m going to get lost inside, the house is really big…ing big”

 

Jongwoon whisper to Kyuhyun

 

“It’s ok cousin. I also get lost when I first step my feet here. I rather stay at their mansion in the central Beijing rather than here”

 

“Wait a second, I’m really confused”

 

Kyuhyun laugh softly

 

“Jongwoon, the house in which they live is different from here; it is found at the central part of Beijing. Three hours away from here. This is their hacienda; it’s like their rest house, like what you had in Australia”

 

“This one is different because it’s much bigger than our rest house in Australia”

 

“They own the whole land”

 

“Daebak”

 

Jongwoon look at the pictures happily while following Heechul and Hankyung at the living room. Ryeowook and Sungmin are already there, sitting with Mimi, chatting happily with their grandmother. Heechul smile and run towards Mimi.

 

“Mama wo hen xiang ni” (Mama I miss you)

 

“Wo hen kai xin neng zai ci jian dao ni, xi che” (I’m  happy to see you again Heechul)

 

Mimi hugs her daughter in law

 

“Ni hai shi yi yang piao liang” (Nothing changed at all, you’re still beautiful)

 

“Xie xie mama” (Thanks Mama)

 

Mimi looks at Hankyung and smile at him

 

“Wo de bao bao zai na li?” (Where’s my hug?)

 

Hankyung smile and hugs her mother tight

 

“Er zi, wo ye hen xiang nian ni” (I miss you son)

 

“Neng kan dao ni wo zhen kai xin” (It’s nice to see you again mama)

 

“Wo jue de ni lai dao bei jing hen hao” (It’s good to see you visit Beijing)

 

“Li xu he Cheng min quan wo lai de” (Li xu and Minnie persuaded me)

 

“Wo zhen xiang nian wo the sun nu” (I miss my grand daughters so much)

 

“Wo men ye fei chang xiang nian ni, wo men ye hen xiang nian bei jing” (We also miss you that much and we miss Beijing)

 

“Ni men da suan qu shang hai ma?” (Do you plan to visit in Shanghai?)

 

“Sheng dan jie qian ba” (Maybe before Christmas)

 

“Ni de shu shu hen xiang nian ni men, ta xiang kuai dian kan dao ni men” (Your uncle misses you and wants to see you soon)

 

Hankyung smile and sits beside his wife. Kyuhyun was standing at the corner with Jongwoon. He became the translator of his cousin because he can’t understand every single thing that they are talking about

 

“It feels like I am in different planet and all of you are aliens”

 

“That’s why you need to learn mandarin soon”

 

“Yes I will…definitely”

 

Jongwoon sigh…Hankyung looks at his mother

 

“Ji zhe men zen me zhi dao wo men hui jin tian dao?” (How did the press know that we are arriving today?)

 

“Wo bu zhidao. Ni men gang cai zai ji chang li ying gai hen fan ba?” (I don’t know, do you have a hard time at the airport awhile ago?)

 

“Shi de, ta men yi zhi zui zhe wo men, you qi shi Jongwoon” (Yes. They were chasing us especially Jongwoon)

 

Mimi smiles at Ryeowook then look at his son again

 

“Mama, dui yu bei jing gong si?” (Mama about the Beijing Corporation)

 

“Wo men ming tian xu yao he ni biao ge tan tan” (We need to talk about it with your cousin tomorrow)

 

“Ni zhen dao yao li kai gong si ma?” (Are you really goinna to leave the corporation?)

 

“Shi de. Wo yi jing lao le, hen kuai jiu hui jue de lei deng deng” (Yes. I’m already too old to work and tired of business meetings, etc)

 

Hankyung smile

 

“Wo yao ni ming tian he gui xian yi qi qu” (I want you to bring Kyuhyun with you tomorrow)

 

“Wo men de hui yi hui zai na li ne?” (Where are we gonna have our meeting?)

 

“Zao shang shi dian zai bei jing gong si” (Beijing corporation at ten in the morning)

 

Hankyung nods, Sungmin look at Mimi

 

“Na gui xian xu bu xu yao dao?” (Does Kyu need to be involved here?)

 

“Yin wei wo yao ta zai bei jing gong si li cheng gong” (Because I want him to succeed in the Beijing Corporation)

 

Mimi smiles at Kyuhyun who is staring at them blankly, still can’t believe what he just heard. All of them look at him

 

“Gui xian, qing lai zhe li” (Kyuhyun, please come here)

 

Kyuhyun walks towards Mimi and sit beside her

 

“Gui xian, zai ci jian dao ni wo hen kai xin” (It’s nice to see you again Kyu)

 

Kyuhyun smile

 

“Kan dao ni he cheng min yi jing jie hun le wo hen gao xing” (I’m so happy that you and Minnie are already married)

 

“Xie xie nai nai” (Thanks nai nai)

 

“Wo zhen xiang kuai dian kan dao ni de hai zi” (I’m so excited to see my great grandson)

 

“Cheng min zhi shi huai le san ge yue, hai xu yao deng duo liu yue” (Minnie is three months pregnant, we still have to wait six months)

 

Mimi holds his hands

 

“Ming tian qing dao hui yi” (Please be at the meeting tomorrow)

 

Kyuhyun nod

 

“Wo yao ni zai bei jing gong si li cheng gong” (I want you to succeed in the Beijing Corporation)

 

“Wei shen me shi wo ne?” (Why me?)

 

“Yin wei ni shi he zhe fen gong zuo” (Because you’re in line with the business industry)

 

“Wo he cheng min da suan liu zai han guo li” (Minnie and I plan to stay in Korea)

 

“Na mei wen ti, ni neng zai han guo li cao ci gong si, xiang woe r zi yi yang” (That’s not a problem, you can still manage the corporation while you’re in Korea just like what my son is doing)

 

“Wo hai pa wo hui shi ba, rang ni shi wang” (I’m afraid that I’ll fail and disappoint you)

 

“Wo xiang xin ni, ni de ba ba ye hui zai bang ni” (I trust you and your ba ba is there to help you)

 

Hankyung smile at Kyuhyun

 

“Wo hui jing li de, nai nai” (I’ll try my best nai nai)

 

“Wo xiang xin ni yi ding neng zuo dao de” (I know you can do it)

 

Mimi smiles at him and look at Ryeowook happily

 

“Li xu, qing ni jie shao ni de zhang fu” (Li xu, please introduce your husband to me)

 

Ryeowook smiles brightly and walks towards Jongwoon

 

“Nai nai wants to talk to you”

 

Jongwoon looks at Ryeowook nervously. She drags him towards Mimi; Jongwoon sit beside her and smile shyly at her. Mimi looks at Ryeowook happily

 

“Nai nai, zhe shi wo de zhang fu Kim Jong Woon” (Nai nai, this is my husband, Kim Jongwoon)

 

Mimi smiles brightly at him and looks at Ryeowook

 

“Ta zhen de hen shuai ah li xu!” (He’s really handsome Li xu)

 

Ryeowook smile at her. Mimi looks at Jongwoon and holds his cheek

 

“Hen gao xin neng jian dao ni, Jongwoon” (It’s nice to meet you Jongwoon)

 

Jongwoon smiles at her and looks at Ryeowook

 

“Nai nai, tab u zhi dao zhen me shuo hua yu” (Nai nai, my husband doesn’t know how to speak mandarin)

 

Ryeowook smile at her grandmother; Mimi hold her lips

 

“Wo bu zhi dao, dui bu qi” (I didn’t know, I’m sorry)

 

“Ni neng yong ying yu huo han yu he ta jiang hua” (You can speak to him in English or Korean)

 

Mimi smile brightly and start talking to him in English

 

“I’m not that good in Korean but I can speak and understand. Let’s talk in English because it’s much better and I’m used to it rather than speaking Korean”

 

“Ok”

 

Jongwoon smiles at her

 

“How’s Li xu?”

 

“She’s a crybaby and a kid”

 

Everyone laugh except Ryeowook who can’t understand English

 

“This is so unfair, I can’t understand English”

 

Ryeowook frown at them

 

“I’m just asking your husband about you, no need to worry”

 

Ryeowook pouts

 

“Li xu honey, I think you should learn English too”

 

“Mama I’m busy in school so I don’t have time for that”

 

“Next summer you’re going to learn it arasso”

 

“Ok”

 

Heechul smile at her, Sungmin look at her sister and orders her to sit beside her so she can translate everything for her. Ryeowook sits beside her sister. Mimi and Jongwoon continue talking

 

“You’re not having a hard time with her, right?”

 

Jongwoon shook his head

 

“She’s the one having a hard time with me. I’m such a hard headed husband”

 

Mimi laughs softly

 

“Does her time for school doesn’t affect your intimate time together?”

 

“Yes, she always finds time for me though she’s busy being a school girl. We set Saturdays as our day together and if I don’t have schedules during Sundays, we go out and have fun”

 

“She’s not yet pregnant?”

 

“Yes nai nai because of her condition, it will be hard for her to get pregnant”

 

“Heechul told me about that, but I really hope for the best and wishing that when you comeback here you’ll give me good news”

 

Jongwoon smile brightly

 

“We’re going to try nai nai”

 

Mimi smile and hold his hands

 

“Jongwoon, I have a favor”

 

“What is it Nainai?”

 

“Can you study business and succeed the Shanghai Corporation?”

 

Jongwoon’s mouth hangs open as he stares at Mimi blankly. Hankyung and Heechul smile at each other and stare at Mimi who winks at them.

 

“But”

 

“I know you can do it dear”

 

“I’m not good in business and I don’t think that I can do it”

 

Mimi holds his face

 

“I know you can be good in business just like your mother”

 

Jongwoon’s eyes widened

 

“You know my mom?”

 

“Of course, I know your parents very well; they’ve been here hundred times”

 

“Huh?”

 

“Teukie and Kangin are very good friends of my Hannie and Chullie. When they are still a student they usually go here in Beijing to have vacation. Teukie is my business partner in Shanghai Corporation”

 

Jongwoon stares at her in amaze

 

“Wow, that’s daebak”

 

“So please study business and succeed the Shanghai Corporation”

 

“Just give it to Kyu na inai”

 

“Beijing Corporation is big.Kyu will have a hard time if he’ll also handle Shanghai Corporation”

 

“But”

 

Mimi smile at him

 

“We have a lot of companies and my son can’t handle all of it. You need to help him. You’re his son in law. The Han family has a rule, every first born son should take over the business and since Hannie is the only child of mine so he will take over, but he also needs a successor and since he don’t have any son, his son in laws will take over which happens to be you and Kyu”

 

Jongwoon stare at her blankly

 

“Is this some kind of a monarchy?”

 

“Let’s put it that way. No need to pressure yourself because Teukie and Hannie will help you. I’m going to talk to Teukie and inform her about that”

 

Jongwoon sigh and look at Heechul and Hankyung nervously; they smile at him

 

“You need to do it Jongwoon; the future of Shanghai Corporation is on your hands”

 

“But ba ba, I don’t know anything about business”

 

“That’s why you’re going to study and Teukie will be your mentor, we’re here to help you and beside, we all need to help each other”

 

“What if I fail?”

 

“I trust you as much as I trust Kyu. I know that you’re a very famous superstar, but at least try to be the best in other fields too. You’re not going to be a superstar for the rest of your life. This will be a great opportunity for you to try at other things and be the best in other things, rather than being a famous TV personality”

 

“I can’t escape, right?”

 

Hankyung nods at him

 

“Yes, because you’re Li xu’s husband and you need to follow the family rule”

 

Mimi looks at Jongwoon

 

“You will do it right?”

 

Jongwoon nod

 

“I will nai nai”

 

Mimi clap her hands while smiling, she holds Jongwoon and Kyuhyun’s hand

 

“I’m so lucky to have grandsons like you and please take care of our Li xu and Minnie because those two are the family’s jewel just like their mother”

 

Jongwoon and Kyuhyun nod…they continue talking about their business while eating dinner and that’s the time that Jongwoon gets to know Mimi more and about the Han family. After dinner Ryeowook and Jongwoon went to their room to take a rest because Ryeowook is not feeling well; Jongwoon lay on the bed while Ryeowook rest her head on his chest

 

“You’re room is so big for you”

 

Jongwoon notice their wedding picture on the desk

 

“Who put it there?”

 

Ryeowook smile

 

“Do you like it?”

 

“Where did you get that picture? You stole it from the photo album?”

 

Ryeowook shook her head

 

“Of course not, I call the photographer and asked him to make a copy of that picture”

 

Jongwoon look at her blankly

 

“I need to bring some of our wedding pictures here so we also have picture here, just like ba ba and Mama and Kyu Gege and Unnie”

 

“You’re so weird”

 

Ryeowook smile weakly

 

“You don’t feel nice again?”

 

“I feel so sick, I don’t know why”

 

“Because you always stress yourself”

 

“Mianhae”

 

Ryeowook pouts; Jongwoon kissed her forehead and smile at her

 

“I didn’t know that your family is very close with the Prime Minister of China and Korea”

 

“It’s because ba ba is the Ambassador of China that’s why we’re close to the Prime Ministers especially nai nai”

 

“Can you tell me more about you? You’re my wife but I don’t know much about you and your family background”

 

Jongwoon scratch hi head

 

“I guess this is the hard thing when you’ve got into a fix marriage”

 

“What do you want to know about me?”

 

“Anything, to be honest I feel so stupid awhile ago when we arrived here at Beijing because I don’t know my wife and her family and it’s so sad because Kyu knows you so well rather than your own husband. Babe, I want to know you more and be familiar with you. I want to know everything about you so it won’t feel so strange and I won’t be confused”

 

Ryeowook hold his cheek and smile

 

“I’m Han Ryeowook da—“

 

“Of course I know that thing”

 

Ryeowook hold his lips

 

“Hubby, just let me speak first; I thought you want to know more about me? Please listen before you speak, arasso”

 

Jongwoon nods

 

“I’m Han Ryeowook in Korea but in China I am known as Han Li xu; the youngest daughter of Kim Heechul and Han Hankyung. People give me the title the billion dollar princess along with Unnie because the Han family is a very influential and powerful in China. They say that our family is very rich but mama and ba ba always told us to live a normal and simple life regardless of being an elite family. It’s actually hard to be a Han, because we are bound with certain rules; some of our relatives undergoes fix marriage especially women. I mean all women are not allowed to choose their husbands, they are bound to marry the man that their parents want for them unlike the men in our clan, they can choose whom to marry”

 

“How about you and Minnie?”

 

“Well our case is different because Ba ba is not like that; he wants us to choose and follow our own happiness, that’s why we’re free to do whatever we want”

 

“I see, how about nai nai?”

 

“She’s a very cool grandmother and strict in her own way especially in discipline and character; I remember the day when our teacher was teaching us how to walk properly as a lady, whenever we drop the pile of books that are placed on our head, nai nai will hit us; that’s why Unnie and I really try our best and control our posture so the books won’t fall or else she will hit us. She always wants us to look elegant and act properly as a lady, but nai nai is a very supportive grandmother”

 

“How about grandfather?”

 

“Oh he died when I was seven years old because of leukemia. He’s also strict, but like nai nai he is also a very supportive grandfather. He’s very intelligent and linguistic person, he knows how to speak Korean, Mandarin, English, French, German, Japanese and Italian; Unnie got her linguistic talent from him”

 

“Who is the musician in the family?”

 

Jongwoon stare at her curiously

 

“It’s mama’s mother; that’s where I got my talent, she’s very good in playing the piano and she became my inspiration when I was studying piano, and she’s good in playing the harp”

 

“How come mama didn’t become a musician?”

 

“Because she follows the footstep of grandfather; he’s in line in medicine, he is a neurologist, but mama wants to be a scientist and a doctor at the same time”

 

“I see, so Minnie is the out cast because she didn’t follow any of the footsteps of your parents and grandparents or ancestors?”

 

Ryeowook nods

 

“But its ok, mama always told us that we need to follow our dreams because this is our life. Fulfiiling our dreams will make us happy and through that we will be contented in life”

 

“It’s good that you have very supportive parents”

 

“But they are so scary when they get mad especially ba ba. He will really reprimand you and punished you”

 

Ryeowook smile; Jongwoon look at the clock

 

“You need to sleep now babe”

 

“It’s still early”

 

Jongwoon frown

 

“Don’t be so hard headed. You need to rest this whole week so you can gather lots of energy because next week is the start of your school. You better relax this week because you’ll be very stress again when you start schooling”

 

“Ok”

 

“You need to follow the doctor, she says that if you want to be pregnant you need to sleep early, take a proper rest and don’t stress yourself too much”

 

“Ok”

 

Ryeowook kissed him

 

“Thank you for accepting nai nai’s favor and mianhae if you’ve been surprised. I forgot to tell you about it”

 

Jongwoon raised his eyebrow

 

“Meaning from the very start you knew that I shall succeed Shanghai Corporation?”

 

Ryeowook shook her head

 

“Not really, but I knew that you will succeed one of our companies because you’re my husband and that’s the rule”

 

“I’ll try my best to manage the Shanghai Corporation well”

 

“When do you plan to attend the business school?”

 

“I’ll talk first to Umma and fix my schedules before enrolling myself in business school. I never imagine that I’m going to study again”

 

“You don’t need to stop learning and education is a continuous process that’s why we need to keep learning”

 

Ryeowook smile

 

“No flirting with girls when you start schooling, arasso?”

 

“Since when did I flirt with girls?”

 

Jongwoon smiles at her, Ryeowook pinch his nose while pouting

 

“I’ll follow your order babe, I won’t flirt around and I will focus on my studies”

 

“That’s good”

 

Ryeowook kissed him

 

“I love you hubby”

 

“I love you so much babe, sleep tight”

 

Ryeowook close her eyes; Jongwoon start singing a sweet lullaby for her.
