The Wife Is A Superstar 7

Chapter 1387 (Title is a Spoiler)

Later, outside the café, Mingyu opened the car door for Hoyeon. She didn't climb in right away. Instead, she continued gazing at the second floor with worried eyes. Even though she couldn't see her son inside, she knew that he was there with his father. She didn't fully trust Donghwi, but she didn't want to hinder their father and son relationship either. All she could do right now was trust her colleagues to protect her son. "Yeon." Mingyu could only imagine what she must be feeling. Of course, he couldn't relate to her entirely because he had never had a child before. But he at least understood her concerns. She smiled at him before climbing into the front passenger seat. Mingyu glanced at the café before climbing into the driver's seat of his own car. Earlier, he was the one who drove Hoyeon and Little Jun to the café. The bodyguards followed behind them in two other separate vehicles.

He looked at her before starting the car. She looked distracted. "Are you okay?" he asked. She nodded. "Thank you for accompanying me. I felt so much more confident because of you. Maybe...if I met Donghwi on my own, I might have not been so firm."

He took her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. It was rougher than his own hands with hard callouses, but to him, it was a symbol of her discipline and dedication to her job. He raised it and kissed it, making her blush.

"I'm glad to hear you say that."

The flush on her face deepened.

He reached for her face with his other hand and caressed her cheek. "You did a great job laying down your boundaries to him."

She smiled. "This is the first time that I could speak to him like that without stumbling on my words. Ruby, Jae, our other friends, and even Aunt Chaerin helped me build up my confidence. I feel so...incredible."

"You are incredible."

She chuckled. "Thanks."

"You're the most incredible woman that I've ever met."

Her entire face and neck were now wholly red from his words. "I doubt that, but thank you."

"Believe me. I do admire you the most as a woman, as a mother, and as a person. Your strength, both inside and out, kindness, and the way you always do your best to stick to your principles are something that I'm finding incredibly rare nowadays. Even when you're hurting, you still always manage to stand back up and continue fulfilling your duties and responsibilities."

"It's because I have a child. So many times, I wanted to give up but couldn't because of my son. I don't want my son to lose me, his mother, so soon. I want to watch Little Jun grow up. I don't care about him achieving anything great. As long as he stays healthy and happy until he grows up, I'll already be satisfied."

"This is why I find you so incredible." Mingyu's gaze on her was filled with soft warmth, gentleness and admiration. "You are so dedicated to your son, your job, your friends. I hope...that I can also be a recipient of that kind of dedication. I would be honoured."

She shifted her body on the seat to a sideways position to face him more easily. "I already agreed to be together with you. You still don't feel my dedication to you?"

His eyes widened in pleasant surprise. "Really? You're dedicated to me?"

"Of course."

He smiled. After a few seconds, his smile turned into a wide grin. "I, too, am dedicated to you...and Little Jun too, of course."

She flipped the hand he held and took his hand instead. "Remember the words I told you when I agreed to be together with you that night?"

"How can I forget?" He might have been a little drunk that night, but all the memories stayed intact in his mind. Nothing was erased by the alcohol. "You agreed to become a family with me."
