Sister, Back-off From MY MAN - Chapter 164

Song Mansion

Ji Seo Yun was very excited about the dinner gathering at her home tonight as she planned something special.

Few days ago, although she apologized to her late friends for cheating them to win a deal, Ji Seo Yun’s guilt didn’t go away.

Although, Aera indeed forgave her but she Ji Seo Yun couldn’t forgive herself for what she did.

Therefore, she decided to do make up for it through this gathering.

Sa Da Hye and Kim Hoon arrived to the Song Mansion before the scheduled meeting time as Ji Seo Yun informed her friend that she has something big planned for tonight.

“Wow, you two are already here” Ji Seo Yun exclaimed in surprise, seeing the two people.

“Hmm, Da Hye insisted we have to arrive earlier” Kim Hoon answered her before asking, “Where is Song Jae Ho?”

“He is in the study room” Ji Seo Yun informed him.

“That’s really surprising. I was expecting to see him with some plants” Kim Hoon joked before heading to the study room to accompany his friend.

Sa Da Hye stepped towards Ji Seo Yun to ask, “What’s the big thing you are planning to do today?”

“Your curiosity brought you here earlier, didn’t it?” Ji Seo Yun proudly asked.

“Yes, yes, you win, now tell me what is it?”

“First you tell me where are Kim Do Yun and Ian?” Ji Seo Yun invited the kids too.

“They both are at work and will directly come here for dinner. Now tell me what are you planning?” Sa Da Hye was feeling anxious and excited.

“You didn’t change at all” Ji Seo Yun smiled before revealing that tonight she plans to officially discuss the topic of marriage between Aera and Song Ji Hun.

Sa Da Hye’s widened in shock at this revelation, “But why so suddenly? I mean we lost Lee Myung Soo and Chu Yu Ri just a month ago” Sa Da Hye worriedly said.

Ji Seo Yun too turned upset at the mention of their best friends’ deaths but she composed herself, “That’s why. Aera had been feeling very low, she is not going back to her sets and is living in depression. I feel she need a change and also, I want to bring her to my home permanently. So, what better way than getting her married to Song Ji Hun? So, today I will talk to elder Lee and initiate this discussion” she explained.

“Hmm, you have a point but the same thing applies to Kiaraa too and she is the elder one, shouldn’t she get married first before Aera?” Sa Da Hye asked.

“I will just start the topic of their marriage today; I am not getting Aera and Song Ji Hun married today itself. After I initiate this proposal, why don’t you jump in and ask Kiaraa’s hand for Ian?” Ji Seo Yun suggested to her friend.

“I am not sure, Ji Seo Yun. As you know, Kiaraa rejected Ian years ago” Sa Da Hye sadly said, recollecting how upset Ian was for a few months at that time.

“Da Hye, things have changed. Maybe this time she will agree” Ji Seo Yun consoled her friend and both the women went back to make the arrangements for the gathering.

After a while, Aera joined them downstairs dressed in a light green dress that Ji Seo Yun asked her to wear.

“Hi Aera, you are looking very pretty” Sa Da Hye stepped forward and hugged her.

“Hello aunt Sa Da Hye” Then Aera turned to Ji Seo Yun, “I am wearing the dress you asked me to wear but what’s the occasion?”

“She doesn’t know?” Sa Da Hye whispered to Ji Seo Yun, who shook her head in no and mouthed the word ‘surprise’ indicating she is planning to surprise Aera.

“What’s going on with you two?” Aera lightly smiled seeing the two women whispering like teenage girls.

“It’s a secret” Sa Da Hye happily declared and Aera didn’t insist further, she just smiled seeing the two women and sadly recollecting her mother, who too might have been whispering like this if she was alive.

Seeing the light sad smile painted on Aera’s lips, anyone could figure out what she is thinking. Sa Da Hye held her shoulder and sadly smiled, “We too miss her. Although she isn’t here, you are not allowed to feel lonely. Me and Ji Seo Yun are just like Chu Yu Ri for you. Whenever you need something, you have to come to us”

“Thank you, aunt Da Hye” Aera emotionally hugged her and left after asking when her friend, Kim Do Yun will be here.

Just then grandpa Lee came to the Song Mansion and Aera’s eyes brightened in happiness seeing him.

She immediately hugged him and asked where other Lee members are.

“They are all busy but I think Kiaraa will be here in a while” Grandpa informed her, happy to see his granddaughter smiling again.

Aera definitely looked better than before and he was glad he sent her away from the Lee Mansion for a few days.

The grandfather and granddaughter sat in the living room and updated each other about themselves. Grandpa Lee didn’t inform Aera of the problems that Lee Conglomerate was going through as he didn’t wish to worry her.

It was bad enough that Kiaraa is already suffering about these problems, so he didn’t wish to drag Aera too in it.

Later, the two men too came downstairs and joined everyone but the wives noticed that their husbands looked a bit worried and tensed.

“Song Jae Ho, is everything alright? You look tensed.” Ji Seo Yun questioned her husband, who was startled by it as he tried his best to look normal.

“Everything is alright” Song Jae Ho awkwardly smiled at his wife, wondering what would happen when the thing he found out, would be known to his wife.

Kim Hoon tried to assure Song Jae Ho to not worry but the truth is, he himself was not feeling at peace as his family too is going to fall apart after this thing comes to light.

Just then Ian and Kim Do Yun came together to the Song Mansion and greeted everyone.

“Glad you two came together” Sa Da Hye stated.

“I went to his hospital to pick him up or else he would have been late, so you should appreciate me” Kim Do Yun proudly informed everyone only to get glared at by her elder brother, who wished to delay his arrival as much as possible and planned to leave soon but his sister ruined his plans.

“He is a doctor we understand if he is too busy for us” Ji Seo Yun casually teased Ian.

“Nothing like that, aunt Ji Seo Yun. Today I had a long surgery, so…”

“It’s okay, don’t explain yourself. Have some snacks” Ji Seo Yun handed some food to the two kids, who just arrived there.

Next, Song Ji Hwan too came home and was greeted by the view of this gathering, “Wow, it has been so long seeing everyone like this” Hwan happily stated before joining his friends and family.

“Yeah, all thanks to your mother” Grandpa Lee happily said while his friend grandpa Song agreed with him. Grandpa Kim too was supposed to be here, but he was on a trip and couldn’t make it.

“Ji Seo Yun, now tell us what important thing that you wanted to discuss with me?” Grandpa Lee asked her as that’s what she told him before insisting him to come for this gathering.

Ji Seo Yun looked at everyone with a wide smile on her face and cleared her throat before revealing her big plan, “Father, I actually wanted to discuss the topic of Song Ji Hun and Aera’s wedding. That is why I wished to meet all of you”

Hearing what Ji Seo Yun said, Song Jae Ho was totally shocked and looked at Kim Hoon helplessly, who too was taken aback as he didn’t expect this gathering to be regarding Aera and Song Ji Hun’s marriage.

The two men felt helpless as just a while ago they found about Song Ji Hun’s wedding to Kiaraa.

There was another person, who was shocked too but all for different reasons. Song Ji Hwan. He felt like sand was slipping away from his hand and he hated the surprise look on Aera’s face, when she got to know of Ji Seo Yun’s intentions.
