Inside the charcoal barbecue meat shop, as Li Zhirong said, this place has just opened. When Zheng Xiujing followed him into the restaurant, except for the 'ding dong' sound of wind chimes at the door, the hall was very quiet.

Li Gong ...... Ji-young, you're here. ”

A middle-aged man dressed very casually greeted him warmly, but after discovering the girl next to Li Zhirong, his expression changed slightly, and then he continued to laugh and said, "This shouldn't be Xiujing, right?" ”

"Agassi, people are such a famous artist, why do you look like you haven't seen you for a long time."

Looking at this middle-aged uncle who seemed to be no different from six years ago, Zheng Xiujing shouted with a look of resentment.

"Ouch, it's really Xiujing." A different color flashed in the middle-aged uncle's eyes, and after glancing at Li Zhirong, who was calm, he said apologetically: "I'm sorry, my uncle has been to China in the past few years, didn't he just come back." ”

"Yes, uncle, you have a reason." Zheng Xiujing covered her mouth and chuckled and said coquettishly: "I want to eat the meat sauce prepared by my uncle himself, this should always be there!" ”

"Yes, of course!"

As he spoke, the middle-aged uncle took the two of them to a place by the window in the corner and sat down, and without asking what to order, he directly served the coals, and then called a few young people, and brought a few plates of processed pork belly and high-quality beef before turning away.

"Uncle really hasn't changed at all." Zheng Xiujing held her chin with both hands, looked at the decorations around her, and said with a sudden expression: "Even the freshener used in the store is the same, Uncle is really a nostalgic person!" ”

"yes, nostalgic!" Li Zhirong skillfully picked up the meat scissors and processed the meat pieces, put them on the baking tray that had been heated up, and said calmly: "Xiujing, is your sister not allowing you to contact me." ”

"Huh?"

The sudden words made Zheng Xiujing panic, and the girl wanted to answer, but found that there seemed to be no good excuse.

"Also, I'm also her black history, right?" Li Zhirong said with a somewhat self-deprecating smile: "A poor sour boy actually caught up with S.M's public trainees. ”

"OPPA, I don't like to hear what you say." Zheng Xiujing twisted her eyebrows and said with a little annoyance.

Li Zhirong's eyes were cold, and then he regained his warm color and raised his head and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, I shouldn't talk nonsense, Xiujing, don't be angry." ”

"It's not ......" Seeing Li Zhirong apologize to himself, Zheng Xiujing suddenly became anxious, and said with an embarrassed face: "If you want to say when Ernie is the happiest, it is when he falls in love with OPPA." ”

"Xiujing, don't talk nonsense if you don't know." The clip in Li Zhirong's hand paused, and said with an unchanged expression.

"Ah, I'm telling the truth, Ernie she'......"

"Shut up!" Li Zhirong slapped the table, his face cold and roared.

Zheng Xiujing was suddenly stupid, the girl looked at Li Zhirong blankly, since she knew this man, she had never seen the other party rushing to deliver goods to her, let alone this kind of look.

Li Zhirong, who realized his gaffe, sighed, put on a smiling face, picked up a piece of barbecued pork belly and dipped it in the dipping sauce, and then wrapped the green vegetables and put it in front of Zheng Xiujing and said apologetically: "Xiujing, don't mention the past again, and don't want to explore what happened to me and your sister, so that I can continue to sit with you and chat and eat." ”

Zheng Xiujing nodded, in fact, she was a little angry, but the anger and sadness in Li Zhirong's eyes just now...... It made the girl more curious.

"Come on, eat!" After seeing that the girl had become well-behaved, Li Zhirong once again regained his humble and gentlemanly attitude.

Perhaps because of Li Zhirong's outburst, Zheng Xiujing's words became less, and she just answered the other party passively. Until...... After the dinner, Li Zhirong took Zheng Xiujing to say goodbye to the boss and came to a remote alley behind Dongguk University.

"OPPA, what are you doing here?" The girl, who had regained a lot of vitality, looked at the gradually decreasing crowd and asked curiously.

"I accidentally got angry at you, of course I have to find a way to apologize." Li Zhirong said with a sincere smile.

Zheng Xiujing's eyes were stunned, at that time, every time Li Zhirong felt that he was at a loss, it was this shy expression, but it was just ...... One less head-scratching motion.

"Here?"

Looking at the small shop in front of her, Zheng Xiujing asked confusedly.

"The custom jewelry store, although it is a little smaller, is very famous." Li Zhirong pointed to a signboard hanging at the door and said.

Zheng Xiujing looked carefully with a wrinkled face, it was full of Chinese characters, and she only saw the word 'name'. Li Zhirong shook his head with a smile, pulled the girl into the house, and a young girl greeted him.

And the next development surprised Zheng Xiujing even more, Li Zhirong talked to the girl in fluent Chinese for a while, and pointed at her halfway. Then the girl looked at Zheng Xiujing, then nodded with a clear face, and walked to the small room in the store.

Zheng Xiujing smacked her lips, and didn't ask Li Zhirong what he said, but began to look around. Various wooden necklaces hang on the walls, and the most strange thing is that they are all in Chinese characters.

She looked over line by line and stopped at a show word and a word of wisdom. Of course, she doesn't know Chi, but she knows Xiu...... Looking at the two necklaces tied together with red strings, the girl couldn't help but be curious.

"Let's go, Xiujing!"

The sudden shout made Zheng Xiujing recover from her thoughts, and as soon as the girl turned around, she saw Li Zhirong holding a necklace with the word 'Xiu' and handed it over: "Wear it, according to Huaguo, this is something that has been prayed for, and it has a protective effect." ”

"Oh!" Zheng Xiujing took the necklace and looked at it in her hand, then hung it around her neck with a smile, and then carefully tucked it into her clothes, and said 'thank you' sweetly.

"Say thank you, you call me OPPA." Li Zhirong pinched the girl's face and said with a laugh.

For a whole day, Li Zhirong took Zheng Xiujing to many places, such as the café in Tiger Cave and Cheongdam Cave for shopping......

And just as Li Zhirong was playing with Zheng Xiujing, Zheng Xiuyan, who was shooting a magazine pictorial, fell into deep thought because of a phone call. The girl sat in front of the dressing table in the name of resting, took out a necklace with the word 'wisdom' from her handbag and stared quietly.

If someone is next to the girl at the moment, they will find ...... It turns out that Jessica, who has always been outstanding in her cold and arrogant temperament, can smile so warmly.

At the same time, at Incheon Airport, a group of young men and women holding lemon-colored cheers in their hands looked eagerly at the exit of the airport, until eight girls who came out under the escort of security personnel appeared, and a deafening slogan suddenly sounded in the airport.

‘T-ara、T-ara……’

"It's finally back!" The gray-brown girl with sunglasses gestured to the fans with a near-perfect smile, but her gaze was looking into the distance......
