"WHAT are you doing!" At this moment, Grandma finally reacted, suddenly standing up from the sofa and coming between Mr. Soo Ji's father and Kim Yoo Fan, pulling apart their hands that were touching.
Of course, this was only possible because it was Grandma. Both Kim Yoo Fan and Mr. Soo Ji's father naturally let go.
Otherwise, with Grandma's age, it would have been absolutely impossible to pull apart the two entangled people.
"What are you doing? Can't you see I'm still here!!! What are you two thinking, acting as if I'm dead!" After pulling them apart, Grandma couldn't help but secretly sigh in relief, but then came an endless rage.
Grandma couldn't believe that Mr. Soo Ji's father and Kim Yoo Fan would actually start fighting right in front of her. They had been getting along so well, in perfect harmony, but suddenly the situation changed, and they started fighting.
Grandma reached out and held little Soo Ji in her arms, pressing her head down so that Soo Ji couldn't see the two men.
"Will you listen to me!" Grandma first stared at Kim Yoo Fan, speaking in a very serious tone.
"Of course!" This time, Kim Yoo Fan didn't hesitate at all, nodding firmly in response without any need for thought or reaction.
"Although we just met today, since I have recognized little Soo Ji as my goddaughter, and you have agreed, it's only right to call me your godmother, don't you think!"
This statement was clearly directed at Mr. Soo Ji's father.
"Yes!" In front of little Soo Ji, he was a strict father, but in front of the older and more senior Grandma, Mr. Soo Ji's father nodded obediently and answered softly.
Hearing their responses, Grandma nodded in satisfaction. Their responses clearly showed that she still had a lot of influence.
"I don't oppose you protecting your sister, and I even approve of it. But you need to know who you're dealing with. He is little Soo Ji's father. As a father, he has the right to discipline his daughter. What right do you have to interfere? Moreover, Mr. Soo Ji is your senior. How can you act so disrespectfully?"
Pointing at Mr. Soo Ji's father, Grandma scolded Kim Yoo Fan in an unusually serious and stern tone.
Grandma had always felt that Kim Yoo Fan seemed to have changed recently. Although he was becoming more outgoing and extroverted, as she had hoped, she absolutely did not want him to become rebellious and uncontrollable.
In Korea, not only do people in special professions place great importance on rules and etiquette, but older people also value these things highly.
In Grandma's eyes, regardless of the reason, it was wrong for Kim Yoo Fan to fight with Mr. Soo Ji's father and not back down. This was a sign of not understanding the rules and being impolite.
Although she didn't understand why Kim Yoo Fan did this, as his senior, Grandma felt it was necessary to teach and emphasize the importance of rules and etiquette. If he didn't value these, Kim Yoo Fan would not be successful in any field in Korea.
"Apologize!" Looking at the expressionless Kim Yoo Fan, Grandma said coldly.
"Sorry!" Following Grandma's words, Kim Yoo Fan immediately turned and bowed to Mr. Soo Ji's father.
"Um~~~ This..." Mr. Soo Ji's father hadn't expected that Kim Yoo Fan, who had just been so defiant, would apologize without hesitation because of a few words from Grandma. This made Mr. Soo Ji's father flustered, quickly helping Kim Yoo Fan up, not knowing what to say.
Actually, the reason Mr. Soo Ji's father was so angry today wasn't just because he is the head of a taekwondo school and values rules and etiquette. It was also because of the worry and fear he had experienced all day due to Soo Ji being lost, and the self-torture he had endured. All these factors combined led to his outburst.
Mr. Soo Ji's father is not an unreasonable person. If you think about it, Kim Yoo Fan is undoubtedly his benefactor. It was Kim Yoo Fan who found little Soo Ji, fed her, and brought her home warmly, preventing his daughter from wandering the streets and experiencing hunger and cold.
The outburst was just a result of all these factors. Now, as he calmed down and faced Kim Yoo Fan's bow and apology, Mr. Soo Ji's father didn't know what to do.
Grandma was very satisfied with Kim Yoo Fan's reaction and then turned to look at Mr. Soo Ji's father.
"You have the right to discipline your daughter, and I shouldn't interfere, but I want to ask if your method is too direct and violent. How old is little Soo Ji? You resort to physical punishment for her mistakes. Think about how you were at her age. If you had been disciplined the way you discipline her, what would have happened?"
Thinking about this, Mr. Soo Ji's father shuddered. As the head of a taekwondo school, this directly proves that he is a tough man.
Since he is a tough man, he must have been very mischievous and active as a child. Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen such a manly profession as taekwondo, let alone become the head of a school.
Following Grandma's words, Mr. Soo Ji's father thought about it. If his son were as mischievous as he was as a child, the punishment he would have given would have been terrifying.
Thinking about how he would have been disciplined by a father with the same temperament and personality as himself, Mr. Soo Ji's father sadly realized that his fate would have been either death or severe injury.
Thinking about this, Mr. Soo Ji's father suddenly realized that he had been too strict with little Soo Ji. After all, she is only a seven-year-old girl, still in the age of innocence and playfulness.
At such a young age, disciplining her the way he disciplines his disciples is undoubtedly very cruel.
Thinking about this, Mr. Soo Ji's father reached out and touched little Soo Ji's head.
Seeing the fear in little Soo Ji's eyes when he touched her, Mr. Soo Ji's father felt even more guilty.
"Soo Ji, it's all Dad's fault for being too strict with you. From now on, I promise I won't be so strict. If you don't like taekwondo, you don't have to take the classes. Whatever you want to play or eat, you can tell Dad. As long as Dad can do it and thinks it's okay, I will fulfill all your requests, okay?"
"Okay!" Hearing her father's words, little Soo Ji was taken aback. She didn't expect her usually strict father to change so much.
Although young, little Soo Ji is not stupid. She knew this was only beneficial for her, so she quickly nodded, agreeing firmly.
At the same time, Grandma's image in little Soo Ji's heart suddenly became very, very tall, even great.
Because with just a simple word from Grandma, her father seemed to have changed completely. Good times were ahead. Thinking about this and the scene of Grandma scolding Kim Yoo Fan, little Soo Ji hugged Grandma tightly, shouting in her heart, "Grandma, you're awesome!"
