The waiter took them to a reserved corner where they saw Hangul already waiting for them. On seeing them he waved happily.
"What took you guys so long I'm starving". He groaned, pouting like a little child.
"Sorry it's my fault, I got held up with a stupid situation but it's sorted now, I'm starving let's order". Taner apologized. On seeing the menu, her face lit up and she licked her mouth already salivating over the food. Hangul smiled at her cute action.
Jiseok waved for the waiter to come take their order. Taner smiled at the waiter, "I'll have chicken masala, lemon chicken piccata, grilled Tuscan chicken and chicken gruyere with sautéed mushrooms". The waitress was stunned but changed his expression quickly.
"I'll have Espinacas con Garbanzos". Jiseok ordered.
"I'll have beef Rouladen". Hangul ordered. For wine Hangul ordered the best red wine.
"So while we wait for the food, tell me why I am really here?" she turned to Hangul waiting for his reply.
"Why don't we finish eating first before getting down to business?" Hangul suggested. She stared at him silently for a while, contemplating if she should agree.
"Fine by me then".
"Great".
"Here is your food, please enjoy your meal" . The waitress said respectfully, after placing their foods she bowed and left.
Taner cleaned her mouth and smiled happily, 'it's been long since I ate to my satisfaction'.
Jiseok just kept staring at her in wonders. All the girls he has met keep kissing up to him and trying to seduce him except this girl. 'She doesn't even care what others think she's crazy'. He thought to himself. 'But In a good way'.
"So…..Taner I heard what happened to you I'm really sorry, please accept this check of one million RMB". Hangul gave her the check.
Taner looked at the check and rejected it politely, "I'm sorry but I can't take this huge sum of money".
Jiseok was shocked by her, again she has shown her difference from other girls. Hangul shove the money into her hands,
"I have too much money to give especially to those who need it the most". He smiled at her before turning to him, "I will leave her in your care again, please take her home safely", he said leaving the restaurant, not giving her the chance to reject the money.
Taner was ready to run after him to return the money but she was held by Jiseok, "Just take the money and see it has a gift from a friend". Taner thought about it and sat down back defeated.
She looked at the time, it was already half past six. She got up immediately, "I have to go, I have something important to do".
"I will drop you off, let's go". Jiseok paid the bill and they both left the restaurant. Once outside, before Jiseok could stop her, she stopped a cab and left.
"She's crazy". He shook his head and entered his car. He called his secretary to arrange a meeting, he is coming to the office in twenty minutes time.
==========================
Taner stood outside of Su woo bin house and rang the bell. A maid immediately opened the door and welcomed her.
"Long time miss Taner, how have you been?" the maid happily greeted her.
"I'm good, you are looking younger Mrs. Lan, is godfather around?" she smiled sheepishly and greeted the woman too.
"You are too kind miss, master just came back from the hospital, he is in his study".
Taner happily bounced to the study. She knocked once then opened the door. She first peeped inside before fully entering. Su woo bin was sitting in his chair reading a document, he looked up to see Taner staring at him.
"You are late". He closed his document and stared at her. "I heard you have been staying in the sauna, I'm disappointed in you".
He got up and left the study, Taner followed behind him thinking of ways to pacify him. He walked downstairs to the dining room and the maid immediately started serving dinner.
"Dad, I'm sorry, I didn't want to be a burden". Taner said pleading with her cute big eyes.
"I don't think you consider me your godfather so I'm no longer your dad". Su woo bin sat down on his chair pretending to be angry.
Taner got up and rushed to him hugging his neck and crying, "I'm sorry, in fact I'm going to get my things from the sauna and stay here with you until you get tired of me and drive me away". Taner cried.
"Promise?"
"Yes I pinky promise in fact I'm going now".
"No need your things are already here in your room". He said sighing already defeated.
Taner looked at him suspiciously and he only smile and winked at her. She wanted to say something but on seeing the food, she was very happy. It was her favorite, she could even hear her stomach jumping with joy and couldn't wait to taste the delicious food. She immediately rushed to her seat waiting for them to serve her. Woo bin smiled at how cute she's acting because of food. She reminded him so much of his sister.
After eating, Taner happily bounced to the living room to watch cartoon. She ate her popcorn happily and drank her juice watching the cartoon. Woo bin went back to the hospital because there was something urgent he had to take care of.
It was already ten in the night, when Taner finally heard his Maruti Suzuki Wagon R drive inside the compound. Woo bin entered the house only to see Taner laughing, watching her favorite cartoon.
"I can see you are still watching cartoon, and yet you say you are a grown up, will you ever stop?". He sighed. He remembered his sister also loves this cartoon.
"I will only stop when I get a godmother and a sister or brother". Taner winked at him and bought out her tongue.
"You…..BRAT!!". Jiseok yelled trying to catch Taner as they run around the house.
"Hey dad stop yelling, we don't want you having a heart attack now, do we? And you should stop running before you break your leg". Taner teased giggling.
"If I catch you!! Are you calling me old!!"
"You yourself are saying that".
"You and that brat keep bullying me, you better don't let me catch you!" he roared angrily remembering Jiseok also called him old.
They continued playing until they both were exhausted and fell on the chair laughing.
