You're Fired !

Extra - 2

Since Jungkook mentioned that he had a girlfriend and wanted to bring her home for inspection, Ms. Sunmi became concerned. She thought that meeting her son’s girlfriend, and possibly future daughter-in-law, for the first time required her to present herself in the best possible light. She couldn’t afford to lose in terms of aura.

For the next ten days, she applied a SK-II face mask every morning, afternoon, and evening, performed eye massages, desperately engaged in fitness yoga, and even started controlling her sugar intake. She aimed to quickly shape her body and believed she had embarked on a journey of self-improvement.

With good news, spirits soared.

Thinking of her son, who had been single for many years, finally having a partner, Ms. Sumin felt proud and couldn’t help but want to show off. As she walked through the community, she spotted her neighbor, Mrs. Huang, who was also her rival in a way. Mrs. Huang had a son of a similar age, although her son was far inferior to Jungkook. However, if they were to compare their sons within the entire villa community, Mrs. Huang’s son would be the only one who could put up a fight against Jungkook. Despite the fact that Mrs. Huang’s son couldn’t compare to Jungkook  in terms of appearance, physique, or work ability, he did have one advantage over her son—

He got married early! He even had children early!

A few years ago, when Mrs. Huang’s daughter in law gave birth to her first child, she had endured countless instances of Mrs. Huang’s flaunting tone. Now, to her surprise, Mrs. Huang’s daughter in law had even given birth to her second child. As Mrs. Huang went door-to-door distributing ceremony candies, she intentionally addressed Ms. Sumin with an air of superiority: “Sometimes, having an exceptional child isn’t necessarily a good thing. You see, when a child is too outstanding, they tend to have a high self-opinion, can’t grasp their position, and look down on others. In the end, they become unable to settle for less or aim higher, resulting in delaying their own progress. By the way, how old is your son? He must be in his thirties, right? You better hurry up, my dear. Even if a boy is outstanding, as he ages, his value will depreciate…”

“…”

With Sumin’s competitive and ambitious personality, she naturally felt infuriated by Mrs. Huang’s remarks. However, she was helpless since her own son was not living up to expectations and indeed didn’t have a partner. Sumin couldn’t find a more effective way to retaliate other than emphasizing that men should prioritize their careers.

But now…

Now everything was different!
Now that her son had a girlfriend, Ms. Sumin felt triumphant. When she saw Mrs. Huang, she changed her previous attitude of avoidance and confidently walked up to her.

“Xiao Huang, do you know…”
However, before Ms. Sumin could boast about her son also having found a partner, Mrs. Huang eagerly interrupted her.

“Sumin, do you know? Your son has a girlfriend!”

???
Although Mrs. Huang seemed genuinely happy, Sumin became unhappy instead.

No, her son had just mentioned finding someone to her. How did this Mrs. Huang person know?! What gave her the right to know this confidential information that Sumin had just learned?!

Sumin’s face tensed. “Who told you?”

Mrs. Huang, brimming with excitement and gossip, said, “No one told me. I saw it with my own eyes. I just came back from the supermarket and saw your son walking with a girl. They were holding hands, and when they reached the corner of the stairs, thinking no one was there, they even kissed passionately. Oh my, it made me blush…”

“…”

Indeed, there was a supermarket near the villa community. If Mrs. Huang had just seen Jungkook, then it wouldn’t be long before they arrived…
But Sumin’s curiosity overwhelmed everything else. She couldn’t wait to meet this girl and subconsciously asked, “What does she look like? How tall is she? Is she attractive? Does she have fair skin?”
