I personally confirmed Chapter 57.
Wu Zhiyuan looked at Han Xijun.
Han Xijun also had a smile on his face.
Only then did Wu Zhiyuan notice that Han Xijun's expression was relaxed and composed, showing no signs of being frightened or scolded.
Something's wrong, something's very wrong.
When can a mother remain "calm" when her sore spot is touched?
And why is Han Xijun sitting so upright? It makes him look very nervous and uncomfortable.
Han Xijun said to his mother, "Auntie, I will definitely do a good job."
The mother responded, "I believe what you said, Hee-joon, but won't this have other effects on you?"
Han Xijun shook his head and said, "No, that won't happen."
Mom said, "Then I'll leave it to you."
Wu Zhiyuan didn't understand the conversation and asked, "What exactly are Mom and Team Leader Han talking about?"
The staff brought me an iced Americano.
After thanking her, Wu Zhiyuan took the coffee and sat down next to his mother.
"Did you come from Lichuan?" Mom asked.
Wu Zhiyuan stammered, "I couldn't contact Haiyuan, so I came up to check."
Mom asked again, "Are you really worried about Haiyuan?"
Wu Zhiyuan felt guilty and didn't dare to look at his mother, saying, "Yes, Haiyuan has never been scolded by so many people before."
This is called cyberbullying.
"Yes, cyberbullying, wait, how did Mom find out?"
Mom smiled and said, "Hee-joon told me a new word."
It was Hee-joon again, the way he was addressed.
Wu Zhiyuan asked, "Did Mom and Team Leader Han know each other before?"
Mom said, "This is the first time we've met."
Wu Zhiyuan asked, puzzled, "Then why did Mom call him Team Leader Han the first time we met...?"
Han Xijun replied, "Auntie is an elder, so it makes me feel more comfortable to address me that way."
Wu Zhiyuan understood; it was Han Xijun who had asked his mother to call him that.
The problem is that Mom isn't someone who can be easily swayed by others. Does she really have to call him that more affectionately just because Han Xijun tells her to? Unless Mom "likes" Han Xijun at first sight.
No way.
Wu Zhiyuan slowly turned his head.
She felt that her judgment was correct.
Because her mother's gaze remained fixed on Han Xijun, and more importantly, she had a happy smile on her face the whole time.
What else happened that I don't know about?
From the moment he heard that his mother and Han Hee-joon had gone to JYP Entertainment to find Oh Hae-won, to the moment Oh Ji-won found this coffee shop, it was only about ten minutes. What could happen in ten minutes?
The last time she ate with Han Xijun and Wu Haiyuan, they ate for over an hour, but she didn't use a more affectionate form of address like her mother did; she just dropped "nim" from "Team Leader Han" and replaced it with "Team Leader Han."
Han Xijun didn't call her "sister," but he kept calling her "aunt."

Han Xijun pushed back his chair and stood up, saying, "Auntie, Mr. Wu Zhiyuan, I'll head back to the company now."
Wu Zhiyuan then stood up and asked, "Is Team Leader Han leaving?"
Mom stood up and said, "I'm also getting ready to go back to Incheon. I need to prepare dinner for Hae-won's dad."
Wu Zhiyuan looked back and forth between Han Xijun and his mother and said, "Why are you leaving so soon after I arrived?"
The mother looked at Han Xijun and said, "Xijun, you go first. I'll talk to Zhiyuan for a few more minutes."
"Okay, Auntie, I'll be going now."
Bow down in greeting.
Han Xijun then nodded to Wu Zhiyuan.
Watching Han Xijun leave the coffee shop, Wu Zhiyuan could no longer hold back and asked all the questions that had been bothering him.
The mother listened calmly to Wu Zhiyuan's rambling for half a minute, and only after Wu Zhiyuan sat down again did she slowly say, "Zhiyuan, this is indeed the first time I've met Xijun. I don't know Xijun's parents, and I haven't even asked them what they do."
Wu Zhiyuan asked doubtfully, "Mom really didn't ask?"
"I didn't ask. Hee-joon just told me about the show. At first, he was tricked by his company into going on a business trip to Japan without knowing that he would be recording a show. He only decided to record the show together after meeting Hae-won on the plane."
Wu Zhiyuan chimed in, "That's right, Haiyuan also said that she asked Team Leader Han to record the program."
"Hee-joon feels sorry for Hae-won..."
"Wait, Mom, Team Leader Han thinks Haiyuan is pitiful? Team Leader Han said that?"
Ignoring Wu Zhiyuan, the mother continued, saying that although the trending topics were all criticizing Wu Haiyuan, they still achieved the goal that Wu Haiyuan had asked Han Xijun to record the program.
In fact, more and more people are becoming aware of Wu Haiyuan and the NMIXX group, including many casual observers who don't follow entertainment news. They only started to learn about them because of Han Xijun and searched for Wu Haiyuan and the NMIXX group online.
The more Wu Zhiyuan listened, the more confused he became. He muttered, "Has Mom been brainwashed by Team Leader Han? I just felt something was wrong. How could Mom become so close to Team Leader Han so quickly? Is it because Team Leader Han is handsome, smart, works for a big company and earns a lot of money, and Mom likes him?"
Mom replied, "I do like Hee-joon."
"Mom, you've really been brainwashed. I had dinner with Team Leader Han before, and we didn't film the show together because I felt sorry for Haiyuan. Why are you telling me this now..."
"When did I tell you that Hee-joon said these things?"
Wu Zhiyuan was silent for a moment before saying, "Wasn't it Team Leader Han who said that?"
The mother said, "Haiyuan told me."
"Haiyuan? When?"
"Haewon called Heejoon before you came."
Wu Zhiyuan quickly took out his phone to check.
Mom said, "Stop looking. She didn't call you or me. She called Xijun first."
"This girl is really..."
Mom chuckled and said, "I called Haiyuan after seeing the photos your aunt posted, but she wouldn't admit it. Today I confirmed it myself."
Wu Zhiyuan asked curiously, "What did Mom confirm?"
The mother said calmly, "Hee-joon and Hae-won have feelings for each other."
"What?"
"Haven't you noticed yet? Haiyuan called Xijun first, and Xijun was very proactive when talking about Haiyuan. The key is that he was worried about Haiyuan, otherwise how would he have run into me? Also, Haiyuan said that Xijun helped her a lot."
Wu Zhiyuan chimed in, "Team Leader Han treats Haiyuan very differently. Our minister couldn't even get Team Leader Han to agree to a meal, but when I asked Haiyuan to do it for me, he agreed immediately."
After saying that, Wu Zhiyuan remembered something and asked his mother, "Team Leader Han just told you to trust him and that he would definitely get it done. What does he mean by 'get it done'?"
Mom didn't answer directly.
She stood up and said, "I need to go back and prepare dinner for your father. Are you coming back to Incheon with me or to Icheon?"
"Mom, can't I stay in Seoul?"
"Haiyuan is busy, don't bother her."
"Mom hasn't said what she's going to do yet."
Wu Zhiyuan followed his mother out of the coffee shop.
Parking space.
Mom got on the bus.
After fastening his seatbelt, he looked at Wu Zhiyuan, who was standing next to the driver's seat, and said, "You'll find out soon enough. I'm going home now. Come home more often when you have time. Your father has been talking about you two sisters a lot lately."
Wu Zhiyuan also mentioned that he has been very busy with work lately, but he will definitely go home when he has time.
In the blink of an eye, Mom had already driven away.
Watching the car disappear into traffic, Wu Zhiyuan said speechlessly, "So what exactly is going on that's all so mysterious about? I hate being kept in the dark. When did Mom learn to beat around the bush?"
"Yi west, Wu Haiyuan probably knows, she's not even answering my calls!!!"
Wu Zhiyuan took out his phone and dialed Wu Haiyuan's number again.
Beep beep, beep beep beep...
