After finishing the case of Jisung, Jungkook finally managed to free up some time and went home to visit Ms Sumin. Lisa  was also going back to her own home, so she didn’t accompany Jungkook.

Ms. Sumin hadn’t seen her son for a long time, so naturally, she was quite delighted to see Jungkook. However, when she noticed that Lisa wasn’t with him, she became a little unhappy and asked, “Where’s Lisa? Where did she go? It’s been a while since I last saw her. She even said she would recommend a new bag to me. I wonder what she’s been up to these days.”

Jungkook pursed his lips and gave a vague response, “I’ve been busy with cases recently.”

Fortunately, Ms. Sumin quickly stopped worrying about Lisa. She cleared her throat, took a tea cup, and sat down, assuming a lecturing posture. “Kookie, it’s almost Chinese New Year. You’re not young anymore. Recently, I have a good friend from my school days. I know her well. Her daughter happens to be six years younger than you and admires lawyers. She wants to find a male lawyer as her boyfriend. I’ve met this girl. She’s beautiful and has a pair of expressive eyes. Her dressing is tasteful and simple. My friend comes from an intellectual family, and this girl has a solid background. In the future, when you have children, you can entrust their homework to her…”

Ms. Sumin’s vision was quite wonderful. She had even planned out the division of labor for future tutoring. Unfortunately, Jungkook wasn’t interested at all. “No need.”

Ms. Sumin became unhappy. “Those mahjong partners of mine are even younger than me, and their grandchildren are already in elementary school! You…”

“I have a girlfriend.”
Jungkook’s voice was calm and indifferent. Despite the weight of this bombshell news, he spoke about it casually, as if he was talking about having had a meal. Ms. Sumin was stunned for a moment before finally reacting.

Then, she stared at her son with great excitement. “What kind of girl is she? Is she older? Is she beautiful? Is she virtuous? Can she cook and take care of you? Is she gentle?”

“…,” Jungkook glanced at his mother and calmly asked, “How’s your blood pressure today? Are you managing it well?”

Since last week, Ms. Sumin had been feeling a bit high blood pressure and had been taking medication for a few days. She still had a slight headache. Although her son changed the topic when she inquired about his girlfriend, Ms. Sumin quickly felt relieved.

What did this mean? It meant that her son’s greatest concern was still her. When faced with his girlfriend and his mother, his first instinct was still to care about his mother. His mother’s unstable blood pressure had made him so worried that he couldn’t even spare a thought to introduce his girlfriend.

When Ms. Sumin thought of this, a warm and gentle smile appeared on her face. “Son, it’s alright. It’s a little high today, but after taking the medication for another day, it will definitely be fine by tomorrow or the day after.”

Since her son cared so much about her, she naturally had to show more concern for him.

Ms. Sumin asked with concern, “Kookie what did your girlfriend say? What kind of girl is she?”

Jungkook pursed his lips. “Oh, once your blood pressure stabilizes in a couple of days, I’ll tell you. You can meet her directly.” Jungkook glanced at Ms. Sumin and added, “It’ll be just in a couple of days, and she might be available. I’ll ask her to come over.”
Look! This was truly her son! Even after finding a girlfriend, he was prioritizing herself. After her own health improved, he would directly let this girl “pay respects” to her. This was like placing the power of evaluation in her own hands. Therefore, without any verbal introduction, she would directly witness it for herself.
Ms. Sumin lovingly looked at Jungkook, and the more she looked, the more she felt that she had given birth to the right son.
