Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess

Somewhere in South Korea. Housing District near the HYBE Corporation...

Lin Ruri is in a state of slight depression. She met her fiancé's parents, who secretly came to see her. Her future mother-in-law and father-in-law told her that she wasn't worthy of Han Yoonjun. Even though Han Yoonjun's younger brother tried to stop his parents, he was still only their son. He couldn't openly protect her, which she understood. Her brother-in-law told her to tell Han Yoonjun what happened, and that meant that her fiancé would solve it all.

Han Yoonjun was recently promoted and has been busy lately. Lin Ruri didn't want to add to his worries and didn't tell him about that secret meeting with his in-law. But due to her special state, her moods were erratic and had gotten worse lately. She was about to cry when her phone suddenly rang.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

When she saw who the caller was, she almost fell. It was Yue Xuexia. Lin Ruri felt that she found someone to talk to about her problems and Yue Xuexia is only one of her closest friends who can be said to be a friend for life.

Lin Ruri answered and forgot that she was crying just now and that her voice was a bit hoarse.

"Xuexue, why have you called?"

[Have you been crying? Your voice sounds weird.]

Panicking, Lin Ruri tried to lie. "I just woke up from a nap. So, my voice is a bit raspy. Hehe~"

[I, Lanlan, and Mumu have already arrived in Korea. We want to meet with you. You're pregnant so just tell us your address and will go to your house to see you.]

"…I…"

[Is there a problem? You can't meet with us?]

"That's not it. It's alright. Please come at noon. Are my parents with you?"

[Yes, I brought them with us. Aunt, Uncle, and your twin brothers had come. But they said they wanted to meet you at your wedding. They are a bit afraid that your fiancé might not like them.}

"That's not true! Yoonjun will definitely like them. He had been wanting to meet them after all."

[Should I bring them with us tomorrow, then?]

"NO!"

[What's wrong? Calm down; don't get agitated. Xiao Ru, there is definitely something wrong with you. Would you like me to listen?]

"…I…"

Click!

Lin Ruri heard the door entrance being unlocked, which meant that her fiancé had returned home. In her panic, he immediately cut off the call, leaving Yue Xuexia bewildered. She immediately sends a chat to Yue Xuexia, telling her not to worry and agreeing to meet her, Ru Lanyu, and Xiao Muen, but not her parents. As soon as she did all this, she met her fiancé, Han Yoonjun, with a smile.

Lin Ruri said to Han Yoonjun with a smile, "Jib-e osin geos-eul hwan-yeonghabnida!"

Translation: [Welcome home!]

Han Yoonjun let his future wife take his coat and gently caress the blackness under her eyes. "Mwoga munje ya? Ul-eoss-eoyo? Dangsin-eun joh-a boiji anhseubnida. Mom-i apeungayo?"

Translation: [What's wrong? Did you cry? You don't look good. Are you feeling sick?]

Lin Ruri shook her head and smiled. What she didn't know was that Han Yoonjun could already see through her sudden mood swings, which were closer to depression instead. He knew that pregnant women would have erratic mood swings, but Lin Ruri's state is not just a smile change in mood. After all, she was still okay when he left this morning for work, and it was only when he got home that he noticed the traces of tears in the corner of her eye. There are also signs that someone has come over. He frowned as he thought of one possibility.

Han Yoonjun hugged his fiancé and felt anger in his heart. He had guessed that his parents must have found out about their address, which bothered his future wife. Just think how Lin Ruri cried because of his parents; he didn't know who to get angry at. One side is his family and the other is his beloved. But he knew he couldn't easily forgive his parents now, especially when he heard from the hotel manager of Lotte Towers Hotel how his parents tried to sabotage his marriage itself.

Han Yoonjun comforted his wife, "Jagiya, oneul gosaenghaess-eo. Imsin jung-inikka gwalohaji maseyo. doumiege cheongsoleul matgiseyo."

Translation: [Darling, you have worked hard today. You're pregnant so don't overwork yourself. Let the helper clean up.]

Lin Ruri said, "Jeonyeog sigsaga jegongdoeeossseubnida. Gat-i meogja. ttohan nae chingudeuldo hangug-e dochaghaessneunde naeil jib-e bangmunhago sip-eohabnida."

Translation: [Dinner had been served.]. Let's eat together. Also, my friends have arrived in Korea; they wish to visit home tomorrow.]

Han Yoonjun recalled that elegant and gorgeous lady, who was also his boss. If she is coming over herself, it is better to show my face to show courtesy towards his boss. But he can only ask for a half-day holiday tomorrow, for this case.

He said, "Gaseo geudeul-eul chodaehaseyo. Geudeul-eun dangsin-eul myeoch nyeon dong-an boji moshaessseubnida. Geudeul-eun geogjeonghal geos-ibnida. Hajiman naeil-eun ajig il-i iss-euni jeoleul wihaeseodo hwan-yeonghae juseyo."

Translation: [Go ahead and invite them. They haven't seen you for years. They must be worried. But I still have work tomorrow, welcome them for me as well.]

Lin Ruri was delighted that her fiancé agreed. She pulled Han Yoonjun to eat dinner together. Afterward, as if tired of everything that happened today, Lin Ruri immediately fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed. Han Yoonjun, who carried her carefully on the bed, went out of the room with his phone. He went to the study to call his younger brother to ask what happened this morning. As soon as Han Yeonjun answered the phone, he heard his elder brother's cold voice and must have learned what happened that morning. Their conversation was in Korean and will be translated directly into English.

[Hello, Hyung!]

"Yeonjun, did Mother and Father find my new house address again?"

[Is my sister-in-law alright?]

"You know that she is pregnant and you didn't stop them from coming? Who told them my address?"

[They bribe your assistant from your company.]

"She will be fired!"

[You know I can't stop them. I told Grandfather right away, and we didn't stay over for long, but their words are too ugly to be heard so I am worried for your wife.]

"I come home to see my wife depressed and obviously crying. What the hell do you want me to do?"

[Hyung, I'm sorry.]

"No, it isn't your fault. I'm just worried. Oh, right. My wife's friends and her parents had come to Korea. Don't let them offend anyone. There is one among them that even the Han Family might not be able to offend."

[How can a foreigner go against our Han Family? Wait, did this someone own the Lotte Tower Hotel?]

"You've met her?"

[No, but... Maybe we had offended her already. We were thrown out of Lotte Tower this afternoon. They said that the owner issued this order. She must have already known about our parents wanting to cancel Hyung's wedding.]

"This will not be easy."

[Is she really that powerful? It's just a hotel.]

"It's not that simple. She also owned the second-largest share in my current company. This company I am working for is already a big name in our country. I'm afraid she has more assets in Korea. Warn Grandfather about this."

[I will, Hyung!]

The call ended after this conversation. Han Yoonjun, who was in his house study room, recalled the temperament of the lady he had a video call with before and his fiancée's story about her. He knew that his wife had three close friends. They were close enough that they treated each other as siblings.

Though he didn't know what kind of background and how powerful her assets were in Korea, Han Yoonjun intuitively knew that Yue Xuexia was not an ordinary person. He decided to call his boss and ask for a day off tomorrow, using Yue Xuexia's personal visit at home. As expected, his company CEO had given him an early vacation despite his filing two days ago.

Han Yoonjun said, "I just hope that Grandfather will not be affected by his parents' stupidity."

On the other hand, in the Lotte Towers Presidential Suite...

Yue Xuexia, who had just called Lin Ruri and got cut off all of a sudden, frowned. Just based on Lin Ruri's tone of voice. The mood which was recently uplifted by the system's reward is now gone. She immediately called Tan Bingyu, who was out to do the task she had issued, and added an urgent one.

"Sister Bingyu, can you investigate what happened to Xiao Ruri today around somewhere in the morning."

[Mistress, the parents, and younger brother of Han Yoonjun visited her at home this morning. We don't know about the content of their conversation, but Miss Lin cried after they left. They didn't take long and left after an hour.]

"Thank you."

As soon as the call ended, Yue Xuexia's expression had turned completely. She called and muttered, "Han Family? What a good Han Family! Once I am done with you, do you think there will still be left of you!"

After saying these words coldly, she stood up, went to the balcony of her room, and started a long round of calls to all of her company in Korea. She only issued one command to all the companies she owned.

'Suppress the Han Finance Corporation and all their allies.'

That day, the top companies in Korea all started suppressing the Han Finance Corporation and all of the businesses involved with them, regardless of the industry they were in. All of them did all they could to drag down the businesses of the Han Family. It was also the day Han Daehyun felt what suppression of big companies can do.
