The two nestled together quietly, as if trying to remember each other's scent and the feeling of each other's company. But time always flies by. "Ring ring..." Su You's phone rang. It was Qingqing. She glanced at Quan Zhilong and answered the phone directly, "Hello, Qingqing..." "Little Youzi, have you packed your luggage? Don't forget your flight at 10 o'clock tomorrow. By the way, do you need me to pick you up tomorrow? Are you at the hotel?" Wu Qing rattled off a string of questions.

"No need! I... I'm not at the hotel... Someone will take me to the airport tomorrow, we can meet at the airport..." Su You wanted to spend more time with Kwon Ji-yong, even if it was just for a short time on the way to the airport.

"Wait a minute, what is that? Su Xiaoyou! Where are you if you're not at the hotel... Oh my god, don't tell me you're at someone's house!!" Wu Qing's voice pierced through the phone, forcing Su You to hold it further away. She glanced at Quan Zhilong, blushing, knowing he wouldn't understand, but still feeling embarrassed. "Keep it down! You're going to deafen me. I'm with him now, and he was worried about me staying in a hotel alone, so he let me bring my luggage. He'll take me to the airport tomorrow morning," Su You explained softly.

Hearing the voice, Kwon Ji-yong guessed that the girl over there was probably her childhood friend, the one she referred to as her best friend. Seeing Su You blushing and speaking softly, he figured the girl was asking her about him. He was really curious! Looks like learning Chinese needs to be on the agenda; after all, he'd have to meet Su You's parents eventually, and he couldn't just stand there staring blankly at them!

“Little girl, you’re really something else, you’ve been quiet until now, and now you’re all together? You’re sure about it? It’s him? How about we reconsider? He’s really talented, but he has too many scandals. Can you handle him? Honey, I don’t want you to get hurt.” Wu Qing said seriously.

She and Su You grew up together. When they were little, her parents were busy, so she often stayed at Su You's house. The two were like sisters. Su You was very well-behaved from a young age, so well-behaved that it melted everyone's heart. Although Wu Qing and Su You were the same age, she always treated herself as the older sister and unconsciously took care of Su You in every way, almost like a mother.

Su You understood Wu Qing's concerns, and she knew Wu Qing was right. Kwon Ji-yong had too many scandals, making it difficult to feel secure. However, Su You was a strong-willed girl. She felt she liked Kwon Ji-yong, and he liked her too. Since they liked each other, they should be together. So what if Kwon Ji-yong was a celebrity? So what if he had many scandals? If Kwon Ji-yong ever wronged her, Su You wasn't short of money; she could pay him back and get revenge.

"Qingqing, don't worry. You know I won't act impulsively. I'm sure I like him now, and I want to be with him. I also believe that my judgment is good. If something happens as you said, I'm a rich woman, and I'm not just talking big. Besides, I have you and my parents! I won't suffer any loss!"

Hearing Su You's words, Wu Qing felt a little relieved. She believed that Su You could protect herself and wouldn't let herself get hurt. "Okay, but you must tell me if anything happens. Don't keep it to yourself, understand?" "Okay, okay, don't worry," Su You replied with a smile.

The two chatted for a while longer, and finally agreed to meet at the airport the next day before hanging up.

Seeing that she had hung up the phone, Kwon Ji-yong slowly moved closer, leaning against Su You, and asked casually, "Is this the best friend you mentioned who came to Korea with you?" "Yes, she reminded me not to forget to get up and catch my flight tomorrow," Su You said softly, playing with his hand.

"I'll take you to the airport tomorrow morning, but I might not be able to get you inside. Ugh, so annoying, I'll miss you so much." Kwon Ji-yong turned around and hugged Su You tightly, burying his head in her neck, acting like a spoiled cat.
