Kidnap a superstar for a romance

Chapter 367: Day 363 of Being a Boss (Meeting the Parents)

【2024｜08｜30 revised】

Seeing Taeyang like this, Quan Zhilong hesitated for a long time and finally did not tell him that he and Xu Yisong almost broke up. After all, he didn't want to recall this matter now, and thinking about it would give him a heart attack.

"So what are you worried about lately?" Since it was not what he was most worried about, Taiyang's tone was a lot more relaxed. He saw that Quan Zhilong was in a bad mood these days and thought that there was something wrong with his relationship with Xu Yisong, which scared him for no reason.

If he and Heo Yisong had a relationship like that and they broke up, Taeyang couldn't even imagine what Kwon Ji-ryong's future relationship would be like.

After all, that was the rare person that Quan Zhilong had plans to propose to, and he couldn't imagine why the two of them would break up.

Unless Xu Yisong proposes to dump Quan Zhilong first.

Apart from this reason, Sun couldn't think of any other reason why the two would break up.

It has to be said that from a certain perspective, Sun did guess the truth, but he himself did not have the chance to know it.

Quan Zhilong looked at the water surface not far away, which was slightly shimmering with colorful waves under the night scene, and pondered for a while, then threw a thunderbolt at the sun: "If I leave YG, will you leave with me?"

At first, Taiyang thought he was hallucinating, so he asked again, "What did you say?"

"I said, if I'm going to terminate my contract with the company, would you like to go with me?"

"..." The amount of information contained in these words was not much less than the news of Quan Zhilong and Xu Yisong's breakup. Taiyang digested Quan Zhilong's words in his mind for a long time before he was sure that he was not hallucinating. Quan Zhilong really said that he wanted to terminate the contract. "Are you crazy? Didn't we just renew the contract?"

They only renewed the contract this year, and it was Kwon Ji-yong who expressed his opinion first.

However, Quan Zhilong replied calmly: "That is a team contract. Top's personal contract is about to expire." His contract is also about to expire.

And according to his original plan, if he wanted to leave, he even wanted to take the group with him, so if he could take them with him, he would have to break his contract with the company.

However, at this time he was not sure about other people's attitudes, so he did not say it.

At this time, Taeyang finally realized that Quan Zhilong was serious. He just thought for a while and gave his own answer: "We have been together for so many years, there is no reason to separate, right?" The meaning is very clear, if Quan Zhilong chooses to leave, he will also leave.

For him, it is people who have feelings, not companies.

If all his teammates left, what would he do? Like 2NE1, there would be only Chaeryeong left in the company, and the group would never have the hope of reuniting. What would be the point in the end?

Hearing the answer from Sun, Quan Zhilong showed a smile in his eyes.

Quan Zhilong was happy now, but the one who was bothered was Taeyang: "So this is why you've been in a bad mood these days?"

"That's almost one of the reasons." This is not the only thing that bothers him now.

Now the sun had no intention of helping him relieve his emotions, and just asked: "Have you asked other people about this matter?"

Upon hearing this, Kwon Ji-yong shook his head and said, "I asked you the first question." However, as for Top, he was the one who took the initiative to tell him that he wanted to leave YG, so the two of them had already talked about it in advance.

"You really treat me as a friend."

"Of course. If I don't consider you a friend, I wouldn't ask you." Quan Zhilong said this as a matter of course, and he really thought so in his heart.

Taeyang sighed and said worriedly, "Have you ever thought about what if the others don't go with you?" Then BIGBANG disbanded.

Although there are still team agreements, Taeyang is very clear about YG's style, and they will not let Zhilong leave.

Even if he really left, YG would not agree to continue activities as a group, and their ending would not be much different from 2NE1, both of them would disband.

Kwon Ji-yong turned his head to look at Taeyang, and said with a smile without any change in his expression: "If I want to leave, they will let me go." If it were in the past it would indeed be difficult, but now he has the contract that Heo Yi-sung gave him, as well as enough black material to bring down YG.

All these combined are enough for him to negotiate with YG and take away what he wants.

Yang Yang knew his childhood sweetheart's character very well. He knew he had made his decision. "No matter what, my answer will not change. If you want to leave, I will go with you."

"understood."

The evening breeze at Victoria Harbour is cool, but people’s hearts are not.

After returning from Hong Kong, all the trips were over and it was almost the Spring Festival. Before the Spring Festival, Quan Zhilong had one last private trip, which was the Chanel Haute Couture Show in Paris in early spring.

Last year, Kwon Ji-yong was officially recognized as the only Chanel global ambassador in Asia, so he will not miss Chanel's haute couture show.

After returning from Paris, he will go back to China with Xu Yisong to celebrate the Spring Festival.

Although Kwon Ji-yong was very positive when Xu Yisong proposed it before, he became very nervous when the day really came.

Unlike Xu Yisong's relatives in South Korea, her relatives in China have never met in private. They usually only see each other through video on their mobile phones, and the number of times they meet is very few.

Coupled with the cultural differences between the two countries, Kwon Ji-yong was much more nervous this time than the last time he went to Xu Yisong's grandparents' house.

This year's Spring Festival was originally planned to be spent in Yunnan, but her father knew that she was coming back, so he discussed with her grandparents in advance to spend it in Shanghai.

Although Xu Yisong didn't really want to celebrate the Spring Festival with her whole family in Shanghai, she had no choice but to accept the decision made by her grandparents.

But Xu Yisong didn't expect that the person who came to pick him up at the airport would be Xu Ren'an.

"Sister, long time no see." Xu Ren'an pretended not to see the surprise in Xu Yisong's eyes and called her sister very naturally. Then he looked at Quan Zhilong next to him but did not speak immediately. Instead, he looked at Xu Yisong's face first.

Xu Yisong noticed his movements and introduced them to the two men: "This is my brother Xu Ren'an."

When Xu Yisong introduced himself as her brother in front of others, Xu Ren'an's eyes lit up, and then he enthusiastically took the initiative to call Quan Zhilong his brother-in-law: "Brother-in-law, nice to meet you, I am Xu Ren'an."

"Hello." Quan Zhilong said this common greeting very standardly. His Chinese is already very good now.

Xu Yisong really didn't often hear Quan Zhilong speak Chinese, so he kept looking at him curiously while he was chatting with Xu Renan.

However, since Xu Ren'an was there, she couldn't ask.

However, Xu Ren'an couldn't help but praise him, "Brother-in-law, you speak Chinese very well." This was not just a compliment. Xu Ren'an really thought that Quan Zhilong spoke very well. Although he had a slight accent, the conversation was quite fluent and he could even understand the dialect.

Faced with such praise, Quan Zhilong just smiled modestly.

He was really glad that he decided to learn Chinese at that time, otherwise he didn't know how embarrassed he would be now.

Xu Yisong and the others followed Xu Ren'an out of the airport, and only after they got out did they realize that Xu Ren'an had actually driven here today. Xu Yisong casually asked, "Why are you here today?" She thought it was the family driver.

Xu Ren'an got into the driver's seat. He didn't think it was a problem even though Xu Yisong and the others were sitting in the back, making him the driver. As he drove away from the airport, he said, "I just happened to come here to do something today. I stopped by when I knew my sister was coming back."

He didn't really believe Xu Yisong who was mentioned by Xu Ren'an.

This person looks innocent, but in fact he only speaks half the truth at most. Sometimes, if he is lucky, he won't tell any truth at all.

However, compared to a few years ago, Xu Ren'an has changed a lot. He has become much calmer, and Xu Yisong is finding it increasingly difficult to understand him, especially since she complained about him at the Hong Kong cocktail party, when he became closer to her.

Not understanding Xu Yisong, he stopped thinking about it. It was pointless to plot against her anyway. With the scheming Xu Ren'an showed now, he shouldn't be that stupid.

Xu Ren'an probably knew that Xu Yisong didn't believe what he said. After glancing at Xu Yisong's condition through the rearview mirror, he tentatively said, "Well, my mother will be here for the New Year this year." Xu Ren'an said this in a low voice, and still felt a little lacking in confidence at the end.

It's not that Xu Ren'an did this on purpose. It was mainly because Xu Yisong had a very ugly quarrel with Xu's father because of a lover, which led to the fact that no one dared to mention it later. Even Mr. Xu was careful not to bring his girlfriends to Xu Yisong in recent years.

Even so, Xu Yisong hasn't returned to his home in Shanghai for several years.

And Xu Ren'an also knew that Xu Yisong didn't like his mother very much.

But in fact, Xu Ren'an was really worrying too much.

The trigger for Xu Yisong's quarrel with Mr. Xu was indeed his girlfriend at the time, but the real reason had nothing to do with that woman. Later, he didn't go home simply because Xu Yisong felt that living there was not as comfortable as living alone.

After all, she quarrels with her father as soon as she gets home. How can she live like this?

However, she really didn't like Xu Ren'an's mother, but it was useless to say that she hated her. There weren't many people in that family that she liked, and she basically treated them all equally. However, other people would easily make a lot of associations when they saw her attitude, and Xu Yisong was too lazy to explain.

At this time, Xu Yisong also roughly understood why Xu Ren'an came to pick her up.

Maybe he wanted to give her a heads-up in advance, fearing that she would make a fuss.

Xu Yisong really felt that Xu Ren'an was young but had a lot on his mind, but she did not expose him. After he finished speaking, she nodded lightly to show that she understood.

The meaning was also very clear, she would not make things difficult for his mother.

As long as she doesn't provoke her or cause trouble for her, she is always easy to talk to.

Seeing Xu Yisong nod, Xu Ren'an breathed a sigh of relief.

This was actually the first time his mother spent the New Year at home, and this opportunity was a reward he won for his good performance this year, which was decided several months ago.

But no one expected that Xu Yisong would suddenly decide to come back for the New Year.

His father's first reaction was to ask his mother to go back, but he hadn't spent the Spring Festival with his mother for three years. This year, he finally got his mother to stay, and he didn't want to give up this opportunity. Finally, after a long talk, his father agreed that as long as Xu Yisong didn't mind, he could stay.

That's why he showed up at the airport today.

He suddenly felt very fortunate that he had not offended Xu Yisong to death, and was also fortunate that his sister did not hold a grudge, but was instead very easy to talk to.

He used to be jealous of Xu Yisong's father's favoritism, and always wondered why. But later he realized that Xu Yisong was different from birth. In her father's eyes, no other child could compare to her, and this would not change for any reason.

They are the outsiders who suddenly broke into her life, and it is normal that she doesn't like them.

In theory, Xu Yisong will not be the heir, and they have never been competitors.

Ever since he figured this out, Xu Ren'an no longer held hostility towards Xu Yisong as he did at the beginning.

After letting go of their calculations, Xu Ren'an found a way to get along with Xu Yisong, and even felt the feeling of being a true family member from her.

This kind of thing is quite outrageous, and he thought Xu Yisong would probably show a horrified expression after hearing it. But now Xu Ren'an is indeed learning to get along with Xu Yisong in the way of siblings.

And enjoy it.

Xu Yisong certainly had no idea what Xu Ren'an was thinking. If he knew, he would probably want to jump out of the car and run away on the spot.

Quan Zhilong had been sitting next to him, silently observing Xu Yisong's younger brother. He had always known that Xu Yisong's family situation in China was a bit complicated, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he felt that it was not what he thought.

He didn't know if the situation in China was different from that in South Korea. It was not easy to ask about such things, especially since he was still in the car. He could only observe the situation quietly.

Xu Yisong lowered his head and glanced at his phone and suddenly asked, "Is everyone at home today?"

"Ah?" Xu Ren'an was stunned for a moment before he realized what Xu Yisong was asking him. He answered while driving, "My sister is back today, and everyone is here."

Grandpa and grandma came back two days ago, and his dad rarely didn't go to the company today.

But Xu Yisong felt a little worried when he heard the news.

Quan Zhilong noticed that Xu Yisong's expression was a little strange, so he asked quietly: "What's wrong?"

Xu Yisong shook his head and whispered in Quan Zhilong's ear, "It's so awkward. Usually when I come back, my dad is not here. But today I don't want to see him at home."

Especially after the last concert, the way she and her father interacted changed, and they contacted each other more often. But these changes were only through the phone, and now that they were about to meet in person, she felt a little awkward and didn't know how to treat him.

Quan Zhilong didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this reason. He should be the one who was nervous, but at this moment he felt that Xu Yisong was even more uncomfortable than him. However, with Xu Yisong as a comparison, he was not so nervous.

Xu Yisong himself also felt that her behavior was a little strange, so he simply stopped thinking about it and silently counted the gifts he brought back for his family this time.

When we got home, Xu Ren'an helped to carry things.

At this time Xu Yisong handed him a box.

"?"

Xu Yisong didn't look at him, but just stuffed the box into his arms and said, "Thank you." Although the new company that 2ne1 signed after the contract termination was invested by the Xu family, Xu Ren'an was in charge of the matter, so Xu Yisong owed him a favor.

"It's a small matter." Xu Ren'an also heard what Xu Yisong was talking about, so he accepted the gift, with a look of genuine happiness on his face.

He took the initiative to do that job, with the intention of getting closer to him, but he also really wanted to help Xu Yisong. In fact, Xu Yisong had already thanked him before and helped him get a few big orders. He didn't expect Xu Yisong to bring him another gift.

After Xu Yisong gave the gift, he didn't say anything else and went upstairs with the gift.

Not only is she awkward with her dad, but she's also awkward with her brother. Before, when their relationship wasn't that good, they could just chat politely, but now that their relationship has improved, she doesn't know what to say at all, so she might as well just not talk.

Quan Zhilong took the gift box from Xu Yisong's hand, looked at the brother and sister who were getting along awkwardly, and wanted to laugh.
