"Alright, alright. Don't stand outside. Let's talk inside the house." Min-a saw the old master being condemned by his grandchildren. She could not help but laugh a little and tried to help him out.
After saying that, he also took the initiative to take Suzy's hand and led her inside. "When I heard that you are coming over today, I specially asked the kitchen to prepare a lot of food. I don't know what you and Minho like to eat, so if you don't like the food, you must tell me."
Suzy's nerves were finally eased a little by Min-a's friendly attitude. She smiled a little and said, "I am not very picky, Minho ... Minho prefers to eat spicy and sweet things. He doesn't really like to eat sour things."
Suzy and Woo-hee grew up in the orphanage. Although they did not starve, the food there was not very good. As long as the food was not too horrible, they were fine with everything.
As for Minho, after Suzy took him back, although the two girls and he were not exactly 'living together', all the food he ate was personally made by Suzy.
Although Minho always pulled a poker face and he did not show any expression when he was eating, Suzy, who was attentive, still noticed what he liked.
When Min-a heard Suzy's words, her eyes lit up. The way she looked at Suzy became even softer.
From what she heard from Jennie, this young girl had only met Minho for over four months. And these four months included the month that Minho

left, which meant she had only spent time with Minho for over three months.
She had taken in Suzy's dependence on Minho and Minho's doting on Suzy.
Now that she heard Suzy being able to say Minho's preference accurately, she could see that the girl really cared about Minho. She was attentive and she knew how to take care of him.
After that, Min-a could no longer hide her smile. "Okay. It is still early now. I will ask the kitchen to keep your preference in mind. Let's go there and have a chat. We will eat later."
"Okay."
Suzy obediently let Min-a lead her to the living room and take a seat. After Minho handed the gifts he prepared in advance to the maids on the side, he followed Jennie and the others into the room.
"Is it okay if I call you Suzy?" Min-a asked with a smile as she held one of Suzy's hands.
Suzy was a little stunned before she nodded hastily.
"How old are you, Suzy? Can you tell me about your family?"
Actually, Min-a had already asked Jennie about her background before, but some things were always better to hear from the person herself.
When Suzy heard Min-a ask about her family background, a trace of panic and concern could not help but emerge in her eyes.
She did not know what she should say, but she suddenly saw Minho, who was sitting across from her, fixed his gaze on her. There was some encouragement in his eyes.
Suzy's heart settled down at once. She took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "I am 22 years old. There are only two people at home, my sister and myself. We grew up together inside the orphanage, without parents."

"You have a sister?"
"Yes! My sister ... My sister and I are not related by blood, but we both grew up together. My sister is a little older than me. She has been taking care of me as if I were her own sister or her own child since we were little. I also ... I have always treated her as my own sister as well."
After Suzy finished saying that, she nervously clenched her hand that was not held by Min-a and subconsciously lowered her head, as she was afraid to see a trace of shock and disgust from Min-a's eyes.
Over the past ten years or so, she and Woo-hee had suffered too much cold treatment because of their background.
At first, she was still little. She did not understand why her classmates and partners around her would often say that she and her sister were unwanted illegitimate children.
At that time, she hid behind her sister every time. She helplessly watched those people insulting and slandering them with a disdainful expression on their faces. Then, she watched her sister take her away in an angry and helpless manner. And then, her sister would secretly cry in the night and try to avoid letting her see it.
Later, as she grew older, she realized that they were really unwanted children. She had no parents, and even her sister was not related to her, but did it really matter?
They had lived together for more than twenty years. Even if they were not related by blood, the bond they had was deeper than anyone in this world.
Therefore, the moment Suzy lowered her head, she had already begun to think that if this person in front of her, Minho's mother could not accept her, could not accept her sister, she would never give up her sister for this place that could become her future home.
Suzy was still preparing herself internally when she heard Min-a suddenly mused after staying silent for a moment, "So, your sister must have suffered
