After the dinner had went on for sometime, the two families finally passed the awkward period and slowly became more familiar, the topic also changed from the ‘national livelihood’ to the two children’s marriage’s life.

“In the future, you guys have to forgive our Jennie. This girl ah, she had been spoiled rotten by me from when she’s still kid.”

The parents from both side had also changed from boasting about their children to revealing their inadequacies.

“In-law, what are you talking about? Jennie will be my daughter-in-law in the future, of course I have to spoil her too.”

The names in which they called each other had also evolved from Teacher Hyun or Madam Manoban to ‘in-law ’.
Although the topic had turned to herself, but Jennie still didn’t interrupt and continued eating her food silently.

“Ah, that’s right, there’s still something that we want to ask Jennie.”
“En?” Hearing her name called, Jennie looked up in a hurry.
“This girl only knows how to eat. The adults are talking to you uh.” Ji Hyun gave her a scornful look.

Jennie embarrassedly put down her chopsticks and smirked at her parents, “Auntie, please talk if there’s anything, I’m listening.”
“Still calling ‘auntie’ huh?” Go Eun looked at Jennie while dropping a hint towards her.
“ Cough … mom.” Jennie changed her form of address with a red face.

Go Eun suddenly felt happy, smiling until her eyes became a slit and then said, “It’s like this, I know you young couple like living by yourselves, so I have discussed with your dad; if you and Lisa want to live by yourselves, then we can help to prepare the house in advance.”

“??” Jennie was taken aback. She never expected that Lisa’s family would offer her and Lisa to live without them.

Not only was she surprised, but Min Ho and his wife also felt that it was unexpected. Of course they wanted their daughter to live by themselves after marriage so they could move around easily. But with Lisa’s circumstances, how could the Manoban family be rest assured leaving her alone with their daughter?

Thinking about it from another perspective, if it was Jennie that had autism, they themselves won’t agree, and therefore, they never thought nor mentioned about it. It was really unexpected that the Manoban family took the initiative and brought this topic.
“That’s right, Jennie, what kind of house do you like? I’ll let Jisoo buy it for you.” Gong Yo said.
“Yeah, I’ll handle it.” Jisoo also nodded.
“I… I…” Jennie turned her head to look at Lisa subconsciously, but she saw Lisa was lowering her head, still immersed in her own world and gave no reaction towards her gaze.

“It’s okay, you can make the decision. Lisa would have no problem with this.” At this point, Go Eun still understood her own son.

As long as Jennie was with her, she won’t mind where she lives. What’s more, from her abrupt moment just now, Lisa suddenly started to be silent again.

If Jennie wasn’t even given the right to make this decision, how could they reassured her parents?
Jennie also knew that Lisa couldn’t give her advice, so she pondered about it and answered, “Mom, I want to live at your house for a period of time. After I become more familiar with Lisa, then we’ll move out to live by ourselves, is it alright?”

“Alright, of course it’s alright.” Go Eun was so happy that she immediately agreed.

Although Go Eun had already discussed with her husband and was willing to let Lisa live alone, but nevertheless, she’s still worried deep in her heart. She was afraid if Lisa suddenly had a fit where she couldn’t see her.
