The Wife is a Superstar 1

Chapter 189 - As Handsome As My Boyfriend

Jennie felt like she shouldn't be listening to this kind of private family matters. Although they were very nice to her and insisted on treating her like family, they just met each other today for the first time after all. So she cleared her throat to get everyone's attention. Then she excused herself to go the washroom.

Grandma and Chitthip finally realized that they said too much in front of her. They stiffened. On the other hand, Grandpa looked carefree.

A maid led Jennie to the nearest powder room.

When she was gone, Grandpa's carefree expression turned into a scowl. "Hmph! Just so you know, I'm already eyeing Jennie for my Jiyong!" He glared at his friend. "Your grandsons are already taken so don't even try stealing her away!"

"Our youngest might be engaged, but there's still our eldest," Grandma retorted.

"But Mother, he already has a girlfriend," Chitthip said.

Grandma: "A girlfriend is not a wife, nor a fiancée. Wait, are you sure it's girlfriend and not a boyfriend?"

"Uh, I'm sure he said that it's a girlfriend."

Grandpa: "Ahahaha!"

"He also told me that he plans to marry his girlfriend."

"What? Marry?!" Grandma looked stunned. "Who's his girlfriend?"

"I don't know. But he said that he'll introduce her to us soon."

"He sounds serious. It matches his personality. He's very decisive, just like his grandfather." Grandma sighed. "I just wish he met Jennie earlier than his girlfriend. It would be great to have a granddaughter-in-law who's a Cross Academy student. Brother Jian, why didn't you introduce Jennie to us sooner?"

"Hmph! I'm now regretting introducing her to you in the first place! If I only knew that you'll also eye her, I would've hidden her until my Jiyong returns to the country!"

"You selfish, old man." Grandma rolled her eyes.

"You thieving, old hag!"

"Say that again, you loud-mouthed gorilla!"

The two continued to insult and glare at each other, while Chitthip looked at them helplessly.

Finally, Jennie returned. The two bickering friends immediately transformed into dignified elders. They began chatting pleasantly with each other, as if they weren't bickering like two unruly children just a few seconds ago.

Chitthip sighed in relief and gave Jennie a grateful smile.

Jennie smiled back, clueless as to what happened.

The four chatted together. The two older ladies were very curious about Jennie. Grandpa mentioned that Jennie was busy with her career in addition to learning from him and her other instructors. They asked what her work was.

"I'm a musician," she answered.

"Oh! My younger son is also a musician," Chitthip said.

Grandma nodded.

"Hmm. Now that you mention it, I do feel like I've seen you before. You look familiar," Chitthip said, studying Jennie. "Have you released any songs recently?"

Before Jennie could answer, Grandpa's voice boomed. "Of course! Jennie is a popular celebrity! Her music is currently number 1 in the music charts! She even defeated your son! Ahahaha!"

Jennie tilted her head to the side. What did he mean by she defeated Auntie Chitthip's son?

"No, the one who defeated my son is the singer named Jennie Kim..." Then Chitthip's eyes widened. "Ruby Jane Kim...Jennie Kim...Kim... Wait, don't tell me!"

Jennie had no reason to lie. "Yes, Auntie. I am Jennie Kim."

"Oh!"

Grandma looked at them. She had no interest in showbiz matters, so she had no idea what they were talking about. She asked her daughter-in-law. "You recognize Jennie?"

Chitthip nodded. "Yes, Mother. Her music is currently being played everywhere. Like Uncle Jian said, her music is currently number 1 in the music charts. My son was originally number 1 but she kicked him off."

Realization dawned on Jennie. "Auntie, is your son Taehyung?"

"Yes, he's my son."

"Oh." Then another more important realization struck Jennie. "Then your older son is Lisa?"

"Yes."

Jennie bit her lower lip, trying hard not to laugh out loud at the sheer coincidence. It was only a few days ago when Lisa told her that he wanted to introduce her to his grandmother and mother. She felt really nervous and worried at that time, but today she unknowingly met them and was even calling them Grandma and Auntie.

She could've told the two ladies that she was Lisa's girlfriend but suddenly feeling mischievous, she ended up not telling them. How amusing it would be to watch everyone's reactions when they learned about the truth. She was looking forward to her man's reaction the most. She bet that he would be stupefied. Just imagining his reaction was making her giggle.

"Oy oy, girl!" Grandpa gave Jennie a suspicious look. "Why are you smiling like that? Do you have a crush on that Lisa boy? I want to know!"

"Hmm... Lisa is handsome. He's as handsome as my boyfriend."

"Hmph! My Jiyong is the most handsome! Only second to me, of course!"

"How shameless," Grandma retorted. "My late husband was more handsome than you, so of course our grandson will be more handsome than your grandson."

"What did you say?!"

The two bickered once again like children. Jennie chatted with Chitthip. Now that Jennie knew that she was Lisa's mother, she treated her even more warmly.

Later, they were called for dinner. They headed to the dining area and ate an array of dishes. The food was more comforting than sumptuous. They looked and tasted very much like delicious homemade food. They were very appropriate for the cold weather.

After dinner, they headed to a lounge room to drink digestive tea. Jennie had another busy schedule the next day, so she and Grandpa only stayed for another thirty minutes before bidding goodbye to the two Madams.

Chitthip already felt attached to her and almost didn't want to let her go. She tried inviting Jennie to sleep over, but Jennie had to decline. In the end, Grandma needed to pull her daughter-in-law from Jennie.

"Grandma, Auntie, thank you very much for today. I promise that we'll see each other again soon," Jennie told him. 'Perhaps the next time will be with Lisa,' she thought.

"Good," Grandma said. "You can come back whenever you want to. If your Grandpa doesn't lend you his helicopter, just give me a call, my dear, and I'll send one to pick you up."

"Who're you calling selfish?!"

Jennie thanked them once again. They bid each other goodbye and goodnight.

Later, the two ladies heard the sound of a helicopter taking off from a distance.
