Start from the beginning
                                    

As a result, Jungkook had to take time to study the cookbooks and improve his skill.

Before Lalisa got pregnant, both of them often went out to eat. However, nowadays there are so many harmful ingredients concealed in the food so taking into consideration of the child’s health, Lalisa had been eating at home since pregnancy.

Of course, Jungkook was more skilful at cooking than Lalisa, but he was only skilful, not superb. Before, Lalisa was very satisfied with his cooking but after her pregnancy, she became picky. She had complained subtly about him on more than one occasion: “Jungkook, why are you a lawyer? It would be good if you are a cook.”

At this moment, all kinds of retorts were useless so Lawyer Jeon quietly endured. Using his slowly improving cooking skill, he fed Lalisa until she became chubby.

On a certain midnight in October, the plump Lalisa was pushed into the delivery room and successfully gave birth to an eight pounds, heavy baby boy.

When she was being pushed out of the delivery room, a gleam of light was shining on the horizon, the glimmer from the first rays of the morning sun. Jungkook, who was ordered to stay outside by Lalisa, quickly walked over and held her hand.

Lalisa complained to him in a soft voice: “Extremely painful, it is all your fault.”

“Yes, it is all my fault.” Suddenly, the eloquent lawyer was at a lost for words. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead.

What Lalisa meant was she blamed Jungkook for looking after her too well, resulting in great difficulty in giving birth to a big baby. However, the nurse apparently misunderstood. Even though she was used to seeing all kinds of situation in the delivery room, she also can’t help but snicker.

Only then, Lalisa realised the ambiguity of her words and started to blush. She turned her head and while looking at the baby, said: “Quick, take a look at the baby I’ve given birth to.”

Jungkook looked at the chubby baby, who had his eyes closed, and started to smile: “Yes, Lalisa is awesome.”

Jungkook seldom smiled so she felt a sense of relief. A smile from the bottom of the heart was the most lethal. Both Lalisa and the nurse stared in awe.

Just now in the delivery room, the chubby little baby was still crying loudly. However, when he was picked up by his dad for the first time, he was very obedient, did not cry or make any noise. He just squeaked and tried hard to wave his tiny arms and legs. He also conveniently spit some saliva on his dad’s suit. However, the dad’s suit was not so well-ironed and neat like usual because he had spent the night outside the delivery room. Thus, a little more saliva won’t matter.

Returning to the ward, a hot breakfast had already been prepared for a long time. Lalisa ate something and tidied herself. Then she felt tired and fell asleep.

When she woke up, it was already afternoon. In the midst of the sounds of muffled conversation, she opened her eyes. Lalisa saw the room filled with sunshine. Jungkook immediately discovered that she has waken up and let her drank some water. Somi and her husband Chan gathered together in front of her bed.
Somi reminded and warned repeatedly on matters that she should take note of. Finally, she remembered to ask: “By the way, what is the name of the little baby?”

Lalisa shook her head: “Have not decided yet.”

Somi said: “Quickly decide on it. Don’t be like us, filled the birth certificate later.”

Lalisa thought for a moment and looked at Jungkook. Jungkook seemed to have already pondered over it when he said, “Today, the sun is very bright. In that case, let’s call him Jeon Kwon, as in the sun shining.” [Zhao in Chinese means to shine or to take (a photo)]
(FL's surname is Zhao and in this adaptation Lisa's surname is Kwon. You may find it weird but I find it cute)
Somi was stupefied: “Ah? Just like that?”

She started to protest: “Jungkook, you are too slack in naming your son. When the sun is shining brightly, you call him Jeon Kwon? Then what if it is a cloudy day, you will call him Jeon Bu Kwon (Not shining)? Lalisa, you agreed to it!”

Lalisa looked at Jungkook and could not help smiling. She winked and said: “Very good ah.”

Somi was completely defeated by them.

Jeon Kwon Jeon Kwon, Somi read out the name again twice. Suddenly, she discovered: “Oh, Kwon Kwon? The homonym of Lalisa’s surname?”
(Chinese names and surnames really confusing! They can just randomly name a person with a surname. Please bare with the names)

Jungkook: ” …… coincidence.”

It was really a coincidence as Jungkook did not do that intentionally. However, Somi did not believe him. She rubbed her arms and said: “That must be it. Lalisa, the two of you are really nauseating.”

Chan was making fun of them at the side by saying: “I also feel it is pretty good. This kind of naming is so easy and saves trouble. How come we never thought of it?”

Somi glared at him and said with displeasure and annoyance: “Why are you following the crowd? If you name our daughter Bang Jeon, in the future she will hate you.”

Both of them stayed for a while only. Chan had to go back to the office to settle something whereas Somi was concerned about her baby at home, so she did not stay too long. They left together. Jungkook got up to see them out.

Lalisa laid on the bed alone. She wanted to restrain herself, but in the end also could not resist as the corners of her mouth slowly curved upward. She turned her body and gently kissed the forehead of the sleeping baby. Then she softly told him: “Dad likes you very much. He says you are his little sun ah, just like your mother.”

Jeon Kwon.

The sun was shining.

My sunshine.

Two years later, a baby, who had Lalisa’s quick-witted big eyes but was fond of looking serious, raised a serious question about the mystery of life: “Mom, the other children were given birth to, but I was developed? Like a photo is developed?”

Lalisa: “…… Ah?”

The little baby looked serious and confused: “Otherwise, why does everyone say shoot ‘Jeon Kwon’?”
Jungkook smiled and bent down to pick up his son, who was tugging at his clothes. He misled the serious baby in an irresponsible manner: “You were really shot out. At that time, if it were not for your mummy secretly photographing your daddy without his permission, there would not be you now ……”

This was a sunny afternoon just like many years ago. At the tree-lined avenue, the sweet scent of trees and grass floated in the air. On the grid pavement, it reflected the long and short silhouettes of a family of three ……

This kind of good weather was suitable to go out, was suitable to shoot a picture of a person without permission, was suitable to walk hand in hand with you.

Jeon Kwon’s Epilogue

Mom was not at home so Jeon Kwon was picked up from nursery school to the law firm by his dad, who just got back from court.

The most idle person in the law firm, Namjoon immediately took out the lollipop he had prepared earlier and amused Jeon Kwon with all kind of topics.

“When Kwon Kwon is grown up, will he be a lawyer or a photographer?”

“Photographer.” Jeon Kwon’s expression was very determined.

“Why?” Namjoon immediately felt lost. The son inheriting his father’s job would be so good. Jungkook’s gene has quality assurance.

Jeon Kwon said with the courage of conviction: “Because a photographer has to carry a camera bag and a lawyer also has to carry a bag. Both also need to carry a bag so why do two jobs?”
