Chapter 16
Qualified Without Qualifications“Min, you sure you’re ok?”
“N-Neh”
She looks troubled over something. Why won’t she tell me her worries?
“I’m ready to listen”
“No need”
She turns the chair so I can face the mirror.
“Aren’t you pretty?”
I just laugh at her.
All of a sudden, I feel that I am.
“He’ll be coming soon”
She nods while fixing her things.
“Enjoy,” she says with a hint of melancholy on her voice.

He’s here!
I open the door before he hits the doorbell.
“You aren’t excited, huh?”
I scratch the back of my neck while chuckling.
He pulls my waist then grins at me.
“Lu Han, you’re gorgeous and I mean it”
I blush at his words. O///O
He leads me to his… OH MY GOSH. You’re kidding me… LIMO. LIMO.
Limousine? Is he serious?!
He owns a sports car already. He even has a limo?
Well, he’s rich. The fact hits me.
“How many cars do you have?” I ask as he starts the engine.
“Five. Limo, Porsche, an Audi, and two sports car”
“You’re so freakin’ rich, Sehun”
He just smiles and turns the radio on. “Know this song?”
It’s Taemin, I guess? And I don’t know that song. OK. OK
“Nae mameul jonhaebolkka?” He follows the song.
I turn to look at him but he’s staring at the road.
His voice is soothing. The way he sang that line is full of emotions.
I clear my throat unconsciously.
He glances at me. “You have something to say?”
“Nothing. I just think that you have a nice voice”
It suddenly slipped.
I bite my lower lip hardly. Then it bleeds.
He stops the car all of a sudden.
He holds my chin and examines my lower lip.
He inches his face towards me and then he wipes the blood out of my lips.
“Don’t bite your lips too hard.” He looks at his thumb with blood.
He later wipes his thumb with a tissue.
“Wanna know something about my past?”
“I got all ears to listen”
“I got an ex-girlfriend who cheated on me. She dated Kris and had with him every night they’re together. Just because I don’t have time for that”
What? Is that…Minseok? That’s impossible!
“You love her?”
“I LOVED her. I gave everything she wanted. I even made her famous in fashion industry.”
ANIYA. It’s impossible.
“What’s her name?”
He shakes his head.
“Why are we even talking about nonsense? Anyway, she’s Kim Min Seok. Know her?”
I swallow hard. “I… I don’t think I ever read articles about her”
He chews the insides of his cheeks
“Here we are.” He stops in front of the hotel.
Elegant.
As we walk in, greetings flow.
“Hey,” someone speaks beside me.
“Hi, Kris”
“Nice dress”
“Kamsa”
He nods and heads to his table.
I don’t know who’s sitting on the table we’re going to.
“Umma, Appa, my secretary, Lu Han. Lu Han, my parents”
He… introduced me to his parents?
Beautiful + Handsome
No wonder.
We shake our hands joyfully.
“You are such a beautiful lady, Lu Han,” his mom compliments.
“Kamsahamnida, madam”
“Have a seat.” His dad motions to the empty seats in front of them.
We sit down awkwardly.
“At last Sehun, you found a lady. Perfect match”
He gives his mom a look.
“Umma, she’s my secretary”
Ouch.
His mom ignores him and faces me
“Lu Han, do you know that you are the first girl that our son introduced to us?”
…
What?
I look at Sehun with a questioning face and he just shrugs.
“That’s…an honor”
“Truly. I’ll be glad to be your mother-in-law”
“Umma”
“And you can also call me ‘umma’ since we would be a family soon.” She nudges me.
“UMMA!”
He’s whining.
Cute.
He breathes heavily.
“Sorry about my mom”
