Chapter Eighty-Six: The Homecoming Family Feast
"Hiss~" Xu Canhao woke up in pain, his tinnitus vibrated and hurt, this symptom made him react immediately and pull down the sunshade on the window. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "Fake! He opened his mouth wide and exhaled and inhaled vigorously to relieve the pain.
"Chan-ho, are you alright?" Secretary Cui Bin found out about his situation, immediately took off his headphones and approached him.
"Do you think I'm okay?" Because of the pain, Xu Canhao said angrily.
Cui Bin didn't think it was a pestle, took out a bottle of peppermint oil from his pocket, scraped it a little with his little thumb, and bent down to help Xu Canhao gently rub his temples.
"Thank you." It didn't take long for Xu Canhao to feel better, and nodded to Cui Bin with a smile.
Cui Bin smiled at him and said, "Haven't you finished reading it yet?" He pointed to "Winter Sonata" still playing on his desktop computer.
"It's almost 22 episodes." Xu Canhao put the headphones around his neck back on. During this period of time, in order to write TV scripts, I selected a lot of TV dramas that have been more popular in South Korea in recent years to watch. For example, 2000's "Blue Life and Death Love"; "Crystal Love" and "Love Hotel" in 01; "Great Hope" in 02; "Summer Scent" and "Da Changjin" in 03; Released in July this year, "Full House of Romance".
"Wait." Cui Bin knocked on Xu Canhao's headphone case.
"What?" Xu Chanhao raised his head and looked at Choi.
"I received news from South Korea before crossing the border, which is very interesting, I saw that you were tired before, so I didn't have time to say it." Cui Bin sat back in his single seat next door.
"Hmm." Xu Canhao pressed down the pause, turned sideways to face Cui Bin, and wanted to listen, this portable international secretary who gradually let him see the careful life and strong ability in work.
"Abark is disbanded." The two looked at each other and smiled, and Cui Bin continued: "This time they were unlucky, they were dug up by several of your large fan groups, and they collapsed directly in reality." There were no serious incidents of injury, but after all, hundreds of people's homes were harassed at the same time, which caused a lot of public repercussions, and Shulan hopes that you will go back and hold a press conference. ”
Abark, as the name suggests, is that Elbert barks like a dog, or directly translated, Xu Canhao is a dog. This group was established after Xu Canhao was revealed to be an American citizen, and its prestige has increased sharply from thousands of people at the beginning to the current parade, and there were as many as 8,000 people at its peak. But later, due to Xu Canhao's rising reputation and the massive number of fans who crowded and suppressed this group, their living space has become smaller and smaller, not only online, but also in reality. Under tremendous pressure, the group shrank to just three hundred people. And the rest of the people may be the only remaining "elites", but they have been smeared for a long time by guerrilla means to slander Xu Canhao's image in reality and on the Internet. In that kidnapping incident, Xu Canhao's first suspicion was this group of people, which shows how much impact it has had. This time, it may be because he missed, and he was touched by a group of IT talents in a group of full-time fans, and he pulled out the list of members of this group, and immediately began to vigorously human flesh. Verbal abuse, mobilizing neighbors to ostracize and isolate, and refusing to sell food are still relatively light measures. Some small groups also began to splash paint, threaten family members, beat sticks and other hurtful means due to the doping. Moreover, in some places, in the face of indifference from the masses and the police, such attacks and arrogance have escalated rapidly. In such a situation, the families of those "elites" first could not withstand it, and then they themselves completely collapsed from the bottom up.
"Is it serious?" Xu Canhao asked.
"I don't know the specifics, I won't know until I return to China." After Cui Bin finished speaking, he pressed the service bell.
Seeing this, Xu Canhao said, "Ask me for a glass of orange blossom (lime-flavored sparkling cocktail), more ice." He needed the icy, sour smell to wake up, and he was going to put on his headphones when he was done.
"What, do you have a crush on any flight attendant?" Cui Bin rarely laughed and joked. (This wine is famous for hooking girls)
"you!" Xu Canhao glanced at him with a special style, smiled and hung up the headphones again, and watched the TV series.
-------------------
"Chan Ho obba is back, and I just saw the interview report on TV outside and at the airport." Kim Tae-yeon went to Yoo Yong-jin's recording studio to check on her recent condition.
"Whew~ I don't know if there's a big dinner tonight." Lin Yun'er sat on the ground, drinking the barley tea prepared by Xu's mother for a few people in the hot water kettle. Several people around her were accustomed to her temperament, and no one picked up her stubble.
"Are they back?" Xu Xian was also drinking tea and asked.
"I don't know, I didn't see it on TV. Didn't you say three months, it should be another month before you come back. Kim Tae-yeon crouched down and began to pack her school bag.
"Ernie, aren't you in physical class?" Hyun asked when he saw Taeyeon's movements.
"Teacher Yongzhen (called a teacher before his debut, and called a senior after his debut, unless the person being called has never been in a song or on the stage, that is, he has not been in a circle) wants to teach me something, but I won't be on it." Kim Taeyeon smiled at Hyun, picked up her school bag, and waved to a limited number of familiar trainees.
"Xiaoxian, is my sister singing badly?" Lin Yun'er suddenly asked very seriously, which caught Xu Xian off guard.
After staring at Yoona for a while, Xiao Hyun also looked very serious, sat up straight and said to her, "Ernie, your singing skills are not as good as Sister Taeyeon, but please don't give up." Brother, let me urge you to spend more time and mind on singing practice. ”
When Lin Yun'er saw the little girl mention Xu Canhao, she remembered what he had said to herself. 'Your tone is special, and it's hard to find a song that's perfect for you. But, you can try to improve your scales, technique, and breath control to make up for it. Yuna knew that he was comforting herself, and she would feel very uncomfortable and resist this seemingly caring teaching. Sometimes, she would rather practice dancing for a few more hours and take half a day of acting lessons than be forgotten by the teacher offstage (when the S.M vocal teacher teaches the class, she asks the trainees to come on stage one by one and sing to the score).
"Ernie, Ernie!" Xiaoxian shook Yuna's shoulder, who was stunned.
"Hehe, don't worry, my sister will work hard." Lin Yun'er smiled and agreed. I just don't know how sincere she is, or if the direction of her efforts is fundamentally different from what Xiaoxian said.
Today is the weekend, and no trainee will practice for himself during the vacation just after the start of school. Therefore, when it was time to finish, most of the trainees left the company in a hurry.
When Xu Canhao arrived at the company, he just caught up with the crowd of children. His nanny car was parked on the side of the road, and from time to time trainees or fans peeked at the side, but they couldn't recognize whose car it was, because the ram had changed his new clothes and even his license plate number had changed. sent a text message to Xiaoxian, told the girl where he was, and waited in the car.
"Eh~obba, have you changed cars?" Xiaoxian and Yuna worked together to open the car door, and after getting into it, Yuna asked in surprise.
"Hehe, can't you see it?" Xu Canhao motioned for her to take a closer look inside the car. "It's just a new paint and a new license plate." As he spoke, he opened the duffel bag beside him. "Now, your sister asked me to bring it to you." Xu Chanhao handed Yuna an A4 paper-sized gift box containing a hand-tied scarf and some photos of Yuna's sister with her boyfriend.
"Where's Taeyeon?" Xu Canhao opened his mouth to ask Xiaoxian, Yun'er has already wandered out of the world.
"Sister Taeyeon said that she made an appointment with Huang Miying and accompanied her to go shopping, so she won't go." Seo Hyun retracted his gaze from the photo in Yuna's hand and replied.
"Oh, that's right. It's good. "Since tonight is a family banquet and Yoona's father was invited, it would be a bit inappropriate for Taeyeon to go. Xu Chanhao took out two more things from his bag, one was a pen for Xiaoxian, and the other was a New Balance sneaker for Yuna. It's not a particularly valuable thing, but Xu Canhao bought it after thinking about it or seeing it, and it is already a custom to bring it to his family as a gift after going abroad. "Hey, girl. Don't want to? Xu Canhao held the shoebox and shook it twice in front of Yun'er, but before he could react, he took it back.
"Ah~obba is the most handsome~" Yuna put down the photo and stretched out a pair of small hands to be coquettish.
Seo Chan-ho smiled and handed it back to her, while also handing Taeyeon a small gift to Seo-hyun for him to bring to her tomorrow.
Because he had to go to Guro District to pick up his mother, the time was tight (to catch up with the peak of dining after work, the peak of Korean dining out is 8 pm to 10 pm), so Xu's father found a high-end Korean Ding Shi restaurant in the 63 building nearby (eat this, it is still the most flavorful antique old restaurant). By the time Xu Canhao and the four of them arrived, Father Xu and Father Lin had already started drinking side dishes. This shape, although it is not in line with etiquette, but now that the two families are in the same family, they are not formal at this time.
As soon as everyone arrived, the waiter brought each person a copper bowl of pumpkin porridge. After that, kimchi soup, cold noodles, salads, various cold dishes, and sashimi are served in small quantities. The style is exquisite, and the taste is equally top-notch.
"Mom, you eat more of this grilled cod, it's good for the skin and anti-aging." Xu Canhao put the plate of silver cod that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Then, he gave the only plate, only two grilled prawns, to Xu Xian and Yuna. I took a burrito, put some miscellaneous vegetables, and dipped it in some sauce to fill my stomach.
"Chan Hao, don't just eat those, try this, spicy fried squid." Father Lin picked a larger squid whisker for Xu Canhao. Over there, Chan Hao was still chewing, and Father Lin gave him a few more pieces of beef stew with attractive colors. Xu Canhao had to cover his mouth with one hand, bend down, and nod again and again, making enough etiquette to welcome food. Before the bowl was finished, Father Xu picked up the wine bottle again and handed him his own wine glass. Helpless, Xu Canhao could only get up and stroke his chest, took the wine glass with his right hand and filled it to Father Lin, then turned sideways and sat down, and drank all the wine in the cup. Pour the glass over again and shake off the last drop of liquid over your own.
"Hehe, yes, at first glance, it's a child who can drink." After Father Lin took his wine glass, he and Father Xu smiled at each other (in Korea, the juniors who can drink are very popular with their predecessors).
Xu Canhao smiled without saying a word, picked up the soju in front of him and got up to add a glass to Father Lin. Then his father was again, coming and going, Xu Canhao was already six cups down, but fortunately there was pumpkin porridge to pad his stomach before.
"Chanhao, I've already thanked Youzhi..."Before Father Lin finished speaking, Father Xu interrupted with a frown.
"Ho ho ~ I'm talking about this again! Yun'er is such a cute little girl, Bingzhen and I both like her, and she is so good with Xiaoxian, what a big deal to take care of the child. Father Xu was dissatisfied with the other party's words of thanks all the time, and raised the bottle again to fill the glass for Father Lin.
"A.bo.ji, please rest assured. Yuna is actually a very sensible little girl, although she is usually a little naughty, she behaves well in front of serious matters and important occasions, and knows etiquette very well. Even if I'm busy, I'll ask my seniors and friends to take care of these girls. Don't thank us anymore, the last incident was mainly because of me, and I couldn't help you. Moreover, our family now regards Yuna as a member of our family, so please rest assured. Xu Canhao smiled and said seriously, which made Father Lin both relieved and moved. Lin Yun'er lowered her head and fiddled with the shredded vegetables in the bowl, while Xu Xian quietly observed her from time to time.
"Eat some hot food, don't just drink alcohol." Mother Xu smiled and took the bowls of the three men and served them kimchi and tofu soup one by one.
"Yun'er, Dad knows that you are very fortunate to train, but you can't throw away your schoolwork. You must listen to Chan Ho's teachings, and you can't be as angry as you are with your father, you know? "Father Lin doesn't know who he's talking about, it's quite serious, but Yun'er seems to be indifferent.
Seeing that his sister didn't react, Xu Xian hurriedly kicked her. Yun'er raised her head at this time, and she should be.
Seeing this, Xu Canhao noticed that Father Lin felt that some of them were drunk, and hurriedly motioned to Father Xu to take action with his eyes. Thinking about it, Xu's father understood, but he still used drinking to solve the problem. Xu Canhao was speechless, so he could only get up by himself to add hot tea to several elders, and turned around and hinted to the two fathers to serve tea. The effect was not ideal, and both of them were in high spirits.
"Girl, what are you thinking? Be happy. Xu Canhao said this to the two of them, Xiaoxian was infected by Yun'er, and unconsciously helped her sister share that heavy heart.
"Chan Hao, why don't you let someone serve dessert early." Mother Xu looked at her son and said.
Maybe it's a way, sweet food always evokes happiness. Xu Canhao smiled, winked at his mother, got up and went out. After a while, two waiters came in, each of whom served some colorful cakes.
In the end, this method still worked, with the cooperation of Xu's mother, the two girls chatted with Xu's mother with laughter, and Xu Canhao also interjected from time to time. More often, there were still three men chatting, and between pushing the cups and changing the lamps, twelve empty wine bottles had been accumulated, so that Xu's mother could persuade him, and Xu's father stopped the idea of continuing to drink. The two fathers and sons of the Xu family stopped drinking, and it was impossible for Father Lin to drink again alone, so the three of them began to chat and drink tea. The meal was eaten until the little girls were drowsy, and then they took Xu Canhao's car home together.
(Today, I found out where the famous Jeonju Art High School is.) It is super far away from Jeonju City, at the foot of Muyue Mountain, next to the Jiuer Reservoir. There's a large college district, as well as church schools, and statewide arts centers. Think about Lee Min-woo, Kim Tae-yeon, these trainees, they have to go to class and practice, and it is really hard to run back and forth between schools in Seoul and Jeonju. What a child with great perseverance, especially Taeyeon, a strong little guy. )
