Gradually, Choi Sulli stopped crying. Then she looked up at Zhou Wenzhe, suddenly hugged his neck, and kissed him.
Having never felt secure since childhood, she now truly understands what it feels like to be protected and cared for, which brings her attachment to Zhou Wenzhe to its peak.
Just as the two were deeply in love and about to move on to the next stage, the sound of a key turning in the lock suddenly rang out in the yard.
Sulli was completely absorbed in her love and didn't hear anything, but Zhou Wenzhe was very alert. He pushed her away and turned to look at the door.
"Oppa, what's wrong?" Choi Sulli asked in surprise.
"Has someone come in?"
"Huh? My second brother isn't coming today?" Choi Sulli was startled; her first thought was that there were sasaeng fans.
This had happened once before, but she wasn't home then, and the property security guard chased the person away.
"It should be your second brother." Zhou Wenzhe used his detection ability to confirm the identity of the person who came.
"How did you know?" Cui Xueli looked at Zhou Wenzhe with suspicion, as he had never even met her second brother.
Just then, the door opened.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Choi Sulli immediately got off Zhou Wenzhe and walked over to ask, "Oppa, why are you back today?"
Choi Geon-hee glanced at Zhou Wenzhe first, then looked at Choi Sulli and said, "I missed you, so I came to see you."
"Oh, let me introduce you. This is Zhou Wenzhe, my boyfriend. Wenzhe, this is my second brother, his name is Cui Jianxi."
Choi Sulli gave a brief introduction to the two.
Zhou Wenzhe took the initiative to extend his hand, shook hands with Cui Jianxi, and greeted him.
"Looks like I came back at the wrong time today," Choi Geon-hee said jokingly.
Since the siblings were having a family reunion, Zhou Wenzhe felt it wouldn't be appropriate for him to stay any longer, so he said goodbye: "Shirley, I'm going back now. I'll come pick you up tomorrow."
"Okay." Choi Sulli originally wanted to fulfill her promise tonight and repay Zhou Wenzhe properly, but since her brother was back, she could only repay him next time.
Zhou Wenzhe walked to the door, changed into his own shoes, said goodbye to the two men, and left.
No sooner had he left than Choi Gun-hee eagerly asked, "Jinri, is he also an entertainer?"
No, that's not it.
"So what does he do?"
"Oh, don't ask so many questions. Weren't you not coming back today?" Cui Xueli knew her second brother well. Although he wasn't a bad person by nature, if he knew that Zhou Wenzhe owned an investment company, he would definitely take the opportunity to come and try to get some benefits.
"Sigh, I've resigned, and I'll probably be living here for a while now."
"Why did you quit your job again?" Choi Sulli asked helplessly. As far as she knew, her second brother had already quit three or four jobs, and each time he didn't stay in one for long.
"My supervisor was always targeting me, and I got into a fight with him today, so I resigned."
"Sigh, never mind, just look for a new job then. Let me ask around for you."
After all, he was her own second brother, and he had treated her well, so Choi Sulli didn't say much.
"How long have you been talking to this Zhou Wenzhe? I've never heard you mention it before?"
"Not long, only a few months, I suppose."
"He's quite handsome. How did you two meet?"
"I met her when I went to Hawaii last year."
"Love at first sight?" Choi Geon-hee remembered that his sister went to Hawaii last June and brought him back some souvenirs.
"What? Later, he returned to South Korea, and we happened to run into each other again. That's how we gradually confirmed our relationship."
"Oh, that Mercedes G63 parked outside just now, is that his?" Cui Jianxi noticed the car parked at the door as soon as he returned. He had thought it belonged to a neighbor, but it turned out to be his sister's boyfriend.
"yes."
"Looks like he's quite wealthy."
"It's none of your business if you have money. You should just find a job and settle down."
"Oh, we're all family."
"Anyway, you're not allowed to bother him. I'm tired, I'm going to sleep now," Choi Sulli warned before going upstairs to her room.
Whether her warning will be effective is another matter.
The next day, Zhou Wenzhe drove to Cui Xueli's house again with some gifts, intending to take her back to Busan to visit her grandparents.
However, the plan changed slightly, as her second brother was also going back with her.
When Choi Geon-hee heard that Choi Sulli was going back to Busan in the morning, she said she wanted to go back with her. She couldn't refuse her second brother's idea of going home together, so she could only agree.
However, before Zhou Wenzhe arrived, she warned him once again.
Although Choi Geon-hee verbally agreed, he didn't really take it seriously.
In his view, Zhou Wenzhe was only with his sister because he was attracted to her beauty and her status as an artist. He thought the relationship wouldn't last long, and that it was better to take advantage of the good relationship while the two were still together and see if he could get anything out of her.
. .
Zhou Wenzhe didn't think much of it; it was perfectly normal for the brother and sister to go back to Busan to visit their family.
Just as he put the things Choi Sulli wanted to take into the trunk and closed the door, Choi Gun-hee came to his side and said with a smile, "I feel a little bad that you drove us back so far. Let me drive."
"It's alright, it's not far."
"Let me drive. I've never driven such a nice car before."
"Okay, then you drive." Zhou Wenzhe handed the car keys to Cui Jianxi, it was better if he didn't have to drive.
Choi Geon-hee took the car keys, walked to the driver's seat, opened the door, and got in.
Choi Sulli, who was already seated in the passenger seat, saw her second brother get in and asked, "Why are you sitting here?"
"He's a guest, and it's such a long way, so I'll drive."
Choi Sulli thought about it and agreed; driving for several hours was quite tiring. At that moment, Zhou Wenzhe opened the back door and got in. She unbuckled her seatbelt, stepped over from the center console, and sat next to him.
The car starts.
We drove onto the highway and then onto the expressway.
During the trip, apart from resting for a while at a service area and replenishing some water, they drove all the way to Busan.
Throughout the journey, Choi Geon-hee didn't say a word and just drove so attentively. Seeing this, Choi Sulli gradually felt relieved.
Sulli's grandparents still live in a place that resembles a village. This village is built on a hillside, with houses scattered in a staggered pattern and each house painted in various colors.
According to Choi Sulli, this is a famous mural village in Busan, attracting many tourists every year to take photos and check in.
The village roads are quite narrow, making it difficult for cars to enter, so we parked in a parking lot at the village entrance.
After getting off the bus, Zhou Wenzhe picked up the prepared gifts and walked into the village with his brother and sister.
The three of them walked through several alleys and arrived at the door of a bungalow. Choi Sulli knocked on the door and called out a few times.
A moment later, the door opened.
"Grandma." Choi Sulli happily hugged the white-haired old woman in front of her.
"Grandma." Choi Geon-hee stepped forward and hugged the elderly woman.
The old woman was very happy to see her grandchildren visiting her. She had initially thought Zhou Wenzhe was her eldest grandson, but upon closer inspection, she realized he wasn't.
"Grandma, this is my boyfriend, his name is Zhou Wenzhe. He came to see you today." Cui Xueli quickly introduced him.
Upon hearing that he was her granddaughter's boyfriend, the grandmother took a closer look at Zhou Wenzhe from head to toe.
"Hello, Grandma," Zhou Wenzhe greeted politely with a bow.
"Okay, come in quickly." Grandma took Zhou Wenzhe's hand and led him inside.
After passing through a small courtyard and entering the house, Choi Sulli happily went to the inner room to greet her grandfather.
When the grandfather learned that his granddaughter had brought her boyfriend home, he immediately came out from the inner room.
Grandpa was quite satisfied with Zhou Wenzhe's appearance, but he didn't show it.
Zhou Wenzhe handed over the prepared gift, "Hello, Grandpa."
"Come on in, no need to be so polite."
"Of course."
"Grandpa, please accept this. It's a token of his appreciation." Choi Sulli helped accept the gift.
"Please have a seat, make yourself at home."
From Zhou Wenzhe's words and actions, his grandfather could tell that he had received a good education and that his family was probably well-off.
"Thanks."
Zhou Wenzhe sat down and looked around the room. The furniture and decorations looked a bit old, but they were very clean.
"It's not the weekend, why are you back?" Grandpa asked his second grandson.
"He resigned again," Choi Sulli remarked.
Upon hearing this, the grandfather raised his hand to strike. He knew all too well the character of his grandsons; they were just like their father. The only exception was this granddaughter, but she had also suffered a lot since childhood.
Upon seeing this, Cui Jianxi immediately dodged away, saying as he did so, "Grandpa, there are guests here."
Grandpa glanced at Zhou Wenzhe, then calmed down and sat down fumingly.
Zhou Wenzhe smiled. Actually, he found the family atmosphere quite warm. Seeing Cui Xueli's grandparents reminded him of his own grandparents.
Unfortunately, the two elders passed away from illness a long time ago. Although he already had the system at that time, the success rate of completing tasks was very low, the task rewards were also small, and he did not have enough gold coins to buy medicine for treatment, so he always regretted it.
"Are you an artist too?" Grandma sat down next to Zhou Wenzhe and asked, holding his hand.
"I am not a celebrity."
"So what kind of work do you do?"
"I started my own company and do some investments," Zhou Wenzhe said frankly.
He didn't notice that Choi Geon-hee's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Starting your own company, that's great."
The older generation doesn't have a high regard for celebrities, but they are quite happy to hear that Zhou Wenzhe started his own company, even if they don't know what investment means.
"Wen Zhe, what kind of projects do you invest in?" Cui Jianxi asked impatiently.
Seeing this, Choi Sulli glared at her brother, but it had no effect whatsoever.
"We have everything, but right now we mainly invest in film and television dramas."
Upon hearing this answer, Choi Geon-hee glanced at Choi Sulli. At first, he thought his younger sister genuinely liked Joo Moon-cheol, but now it seemed she had ulterior motives.
Since someone can invest in film and television dramas, it means they have certain connections in the industry. How could an artist's sister not seize such an opportunity?
"Don't ask anymore, go to the market to buy groceries." Grandpa pointed to his grandson.
"Let the truth go, I'll have a chat with Wenzhe."
"Just go when I tell you to, stop talking nonsense." Grandpa raised his hand to hit him again.
"Okay, seriously, what are we buying?"
Grandma, feeling sorry for her grandson, took out a cloth bag from her pocket, took out some money from it, and handed it to Cui Jianxi, saying, "Buy whatever you want, buy some meat."
"Grandma, I have money." Although Cui Jianxi had his own ulterior motives, he was still very filial and returned the money to his grandmother.
"Take it, you've already resigned, what money do you have?" Grandma forcibly stuffed the money into Cui Jianxi's pocket.
"I'll go with you. I'll also take a look around the markets in Busan." Zhou Wenzhe had seen all kinds of people. He had long seen through Cui Jianxi's little schemes and knew what he wanted.
"I want to go too." Choi Sulli stood up.
"The two of us can go. You stay with Grandpa and Grandma. They haven't been back for so long." Choi Geon-hee couldn't let go of such a rare opportunity and used the greater good to keep Choi Sulli at home.
Choi Sulli glared angrily at her second brother, already regretting letting him come back with her.
After the two left, Grandpa asked, "Zhenli, does your boyfriend really own a company?"
"Yes, it's true, and the company is quite large." Facing her grandparents, Choi Sulli couldn't hide it from them. Although she wasn't entirely sure what Zhou Wenzhe's family did, she was certain they were very wealthy.
"How old is he?" Grandma was more concerned about his age.
"She's the same age as me, but a few months younger."

"That's great! How did you two meet?"
Sulli slowly told her grandparents about how she met and dated Zhou Wenzhe.
Meanwhile, the two people heading to the market were also chatting.
"Wen Zhe, what kinds of films and TV series have you invested in?" Cui Jianxi asked.
"My company has only been open for a short time, and several TV series I've invested in are currently filming. The earliest they'll be released is probably July of this year."
It won't be released until August.
"Really? Does your company need anyone? What do you think of me?"
"What did Jianxi study?"
"Oh, you're laughing at me. I didn't go to university. I started working right after graduating from high school."
Because he lacked a degree, Choi Geon-hee faced numerous setbacks in his job search, and the jobs he could find were mostly manual labor.
"So what can you do?"
"Anything is fine."
"How about this, come to the company after you get back to Seoul, and we'll talk again." Zhou Wenzhe didn't mind giving Cui Jianxi a job, even though he wasn't a very law-abiding person, he wasn't a bad person at heart.
"Okay." Choi Geon-hee was very excited. Given his status as Choi Seol-ri's second brother, Zhou Wenzhe would surely arrange a deputy director position for him, or at least a section chief or office head.
On the other side, after listening to Choi Sulli's words, the grandfather said to her earnestly, "Jinri, I can see that you like him very much, but you can't get too involved. People from his family background may not be able to accept you."
Although Choi Sulli is a very famous artist and earns a lot of money, she is nothing compared to the chaebols. Her grandfather is worried that his granddaughter will get stuck on something.
"I understand, I've thought about this too, but I don't care." Of course Choi Sulli had thought about these things; she had considered these issues when she decided to be with Zhou Wenzhe.
"Sigh, you're still the same as always." How could grandparents not know what kind of personality their granddaughter had?
"Grandpa, Grandma, don't worry, he treats me very well, and I believe he will always treat me well."
"I hope so, I hope he's not like your father."
Although he was their son, the two elders had a lot of opinions about Choi Sulli's father and didn't even want to acknowledge him as their son anymore.
When the topic turned to this person, Choi Sulli's smile faded. Since her father remarried, she hadn't seen him much, and her impression of him was very faint; she could hardly even remember what he looked like.
Just then, the gate to the courtyard opened, and a man in his fifties walked in with a familiar voice.
