Chapter 15: Hunger

Back home, unexpectedly, IU was not there. Ah Jiu was slightly stunned, and then relieved. During these days, IU was there every day, and he subconsciously took IU every day for granted. In fact, as an artist, it is the norm for IU to often not be able to return home, and besides, her home is not here, this is just her studio.

Accustomed to the life of having a family, you will feel lonely when you are alone. Although it hasn't been for a long time, Ah Jiu has become accustomed to buying vegetables at night and coming back to cook, eating and chatting with IU, and enjoying the fun of 'home'. Now he was left alone, and suddenly he didn't want to eat.

Ah Jiu opened the refrigerator, put the vegetables he bought in, and took out an egg and two packs of ramen.

Half a month ago, I lived like this every day, sometimes I didn't even have eggs, and I didn't feel anything wrong. Unexpectedly, only half a month has passed, and he has already begun to subconsciously reject.

Ah Jiu put the noodles into the water, beat a poached egg, and stood dumbly waiting for the water to boil, without thinking or thinking.

When you're alone, you don't even have someone to talk to, so what else can you do besides being in a daze and being empty?

Bringing the ramen pot to the table, Ah Jiu picked up the chopsticks, which hung in the air, and suddenly he put them down again.

Don't want to eat.

"It's too hot, let's eat it when it's cold for a while. He made an excuse for himself, and sat back in his chair, and after a while, he crossed his legs, and after another moment, he pulled out his phone and put it on the table, staring.

"She should be busy now, won't it be any inconvenience to call......"

"If it's an agent, you say it's a mistake?"

"Ask what, ask her why she didn't come back? Is this kind of question necessary? There must be something. ā€

"It's my brother anyway, my brother asked my sister why she didn't come home, it's reasonable......"

"What do you think, it's not a brother or sister, it's a nervous disease!"

I struggled and struggled in my heart, flickering left and right, but I couldn't make up my mind. At this time, the phone suddenly vibrated and then the music of "Good Day" sounded.

Ah Jiu picked up the phone with a 'whoosh', and almost at the same time, the phone had been connected.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

"Eat. Ah Jiu looked at the ramen on the table, and said without a red face and a heartbeat: "I eat barbecue by myself, and I am almost finished." ā€

"Huh?" IU's bulging voice came: "How can it, how can my brother eat barbecue secretly?"

"If you don't go home, I'll still be hungry?"

"Oh. IU seemed to sigh and said resentfully, "Brother, I haven't eaten for a day." ā€

Ah Jiu suddenly frowned: "Why don't you eat?" Didn't I tell you to eat on time?"

"I'm going to shoot a magazine cover tomorrow, I've been exercising today and haven't eaten anything. ā€

Ah Jiu hesitated for a moment and said, "What do you want to eat now?"

"There's so much you want to eat...... I want to eat fried chicken, I want to eat rice balls, I want to eat spicy rice cakes...... Alas, it makes my mouth water just thinking about it. IU swallowed his saliva, suddenly heard the footsteps of the fitness coach, and hurriedly said, "Brother, don't say it, I'm going to exercise." ā€

"Wait!" Ah Jiu called out to IU, "Where are you now?"

"Brother, I know you're good for me, but they're also good for me. I can't shoot the cover like Anpanman, okay, don't worry, this kind of thing is not once or twice, I have experience. IU was about to hang up the phone as she spoke, but suddenly thought of something again, and said, "Brother, I won't go tonight, you can sleep in my room, it's okay." ā€

"Hmm," Ah Jiu replied vaguely, and suddenly said, "I'm not worried, you take a selfie and send it to me." ā€

"Okay, I'll send it to you in a moment. After IU finished speaking, the phone hung up, and after a while, I received a photo on LINE, IU sitting on the floor, leaning against the wall, comparing scissor hands, but she couldn't hide her haggardness.

Ah Jiu sighed, put his mobile phone in his pocket, picked up chopsticks and ate wildly, and quickly finished the ramen even the soup and water. I burped, patted my stomach, put on my coat and turned off the lights and went out.

――――――

"Do two more sets of sit-ups and take a break!"

ā€œ5态4态3ā€¦ā€¦ā€

"Okay, let's take a break, and we'll continue in an hour. ā€

The coach handed IU a bottle of sports drink and left, IU knew what she was going to do, she went to eat.

IU, of course, could also choose to give up and get up and go to dinner, but it was she who failed herself.

"Who made me fat-......" IU leaned against the wall, shrunk into a small ball, pillowed his knees, held his legs with his left hand, drew circles on the ground with his right hand, and said in his mouth: "I blame my brother for making too delicious dishes......

"What about speaking ill of me?"

"Hmm, brother, how do you know I'm here?" IU raised his head and was very surprised to see Ah Jiu coming over, and when he saw what he was carrying, his eyes suddenly couldn't turn away.

"The photo you sent has the address underneath. ā€

"Brother, what are you holding......" IU didn't blink his eyes, stared at the plastic bag in Ah Jiu's hand, and said knowingly.

Ah Jiu sat down next to her, put the plastic bag on the floor and opened it, and took it out the same: "Fried chicken, rice balls, spicy rice cakes." ā€

IU swallowed his saliva and looked away with difficulty: "No, I can't eat it, I, I can't eat it, brother, you can take it." ā€

"Oh. Ah Jiu was not in a hurry, picked up a rice ball and tore open the package, took a bite and half of it, and said while chewing: "The boss really didn't lie to me, there are really shrimps, take a look?"

IU glanced at it, and sure enough, there were shrimps, and there was more saliva.

"One to come?" Ah Jiu picked up another rice ball and raised his eyebrows. If anyone takes pictures of his expression at this time, he will be the big bad wolf who seduces Little Red Riding Hood.

IU pushed his hand away and said firmly: "I can't eat it, I'm going to lose 1kg today, and I'm almost successful." ā€

Ah Jiu was noncommittal, stuffed the remaining half of the rice ball into his mouth, and chewed it recklessly: "How much is it missing?"

"Half ......" IU lowered her head in shame, her nose was a little sour, and she felt aggrieved, what can I do if I am prone to obesity, and I didn't mean it.

ā€œ500g…… Is there a big difference?"

"Of course there is...... IU said depressedly, "There is a difference between a line and a line, and it is obvious to shoot." ā€

Of course, Ah Jiu knew that it was obvious that he was from the imaging department. Scientifically speaking, this is a problem of body fat percentage, people with low body fat percentage have obvious muscle lines, and people with high body fat percentage look fat, which can also be called baby fat.

As an older brother's standpoint, he thinks IU is a little baby fat and cute, but looking at her now, it seems that she is fighting against this baby fat.

Ah Jiu thought about it, and put the fried chicken, rice balls, and spicy rice cakes back into the plastic bag, IU's heart was all pinched together, she wanted Ah Jiu to fall the same thing, even if she didn't eat it, it would be good to smell it......

"Let's go, let's go home. ā€

"Home?"

Ah Jiu didn't explain anything, just looked at IU and said, "Believe me or not, I can let you lose this 500g." ā€

IU was stunned for a moment, no longer hesitated, and handed his hand to Ah Jiu and asked him to pull himself up.
