7:50

Lee Sung-ho left the president's office and walked towards the No. 3 studio of the music center on the second floor.

Seven fifty-five a.m

IU, as the initiator and MC, is putting the finishing touches on the first recording.

Studio Office

Li Chenghao touched his chin repeatedly with his right hand, looking at IU's comfortable appearance on the stage, but what he was thinking about was the picture of IU's panicked face for a while.

Eight o'clock sharp

The recording of the first episode was successfully completed.

Backstage lounge area

Lee Sung-ho stood at the door of the MC lounge, loosened his elastic tie, and pushed open the door of the lounge without knocking in advance.

At this time

In addition to IU, Hante, stylists, makeup artists, and other staff members were present in the lounge.

Li Chenghao smiled and waved at IU, who was sitting sideways in the chair and looking at him.

The entire lounge was silent, and when they exchanged glances with each other, Li Chenghao was even more shocked by the "dear" immediately after.

Hante's mouth was wide enough to fit into a fist.

The staff on the side looked at Li Chenghao, who had a bright expression, and then looked at IU, who was also stunned on the chair, and quickly slipped away.

Lee Sung-ho walked slowly towards IU and continued: "My dear, tomorrow night on Kim Dong-eun's birthday, will I pick you up at home or at the company at six o'clock?" ”

Han Te bent down and nodded at Li Chenghao, this is a place of right and wrong, and it is good to slip away.

IU was trying to catch Hant, but he didn't think that Hant would take a step faster, went straight to the door of the lounge, and slammed the door shut after burrowing out of the lounge sideways.

Outside the door

The staff looked at the Han Te who came out and gossiped: "Are they usually so high-profile?" ”

Han Te asked the staff rhetorically: "Aren't we usually all together, don't you know?" ”

"I don't know, this is the first time I've seen you"

"Me too...... Well, it's the second time I've seen something like it. ”

Only Lee Sung-ho and IU were left in the lounge.

IU opened his mouth and asked Li Chenghao: "Are you crazy?" Why do you call me a dear ......?"

This nickname IU is hard to say anyway.

Li Chenghao kept smiling: "I'm crazy about you?" ”

instantly understood that Li Chenghao was disgusting himself, didn't he just call him Oba during the live broadcast.

A gentleman takes revenge, and he doesn't have to wait for ten years

Li Chenghao was very satisfied with IU's reaction, at least in front of so many people, he was called dear by Li Chenghao, IU was still panicked.

Putting away the joke, Lee Sung-ho said with a serious face: "Tomorrow Kim Dong-eun's birthday party, you dress up well." ”

"Why?"

"What else can I do, of course, I can't be embarrassed."

As soon as he heard this, IU was directly speechless.

"Also, follow me tomorrow, don't just walk around."

Isn't it free to go to a birthday party yet.

I'm worried that I won't be able to cope with the occasion of the birthday party.

Although the birthday party of the chaebol is different from that of ordinary people, it is only the difference between the venue and the identity of the guests, and the difference is to drink and chat.

Li Chenghao said this like a faltering child.

IU muttered, "I don't have a good sense of direction, but I won't get lost at the party, it's really ......"

"Buzz"

Glancing at the caller ID, Li Chenghao sighed in front of IU.

Who will be the one who can make Li Chenghao sigh?

IU picked up a makeup remover and seemed to be concentrating on pouring makeup remover water on the makeup remover, but in fact, he was secretly observing Li Chenghao through the makeup mirror.

I could faintly hear the phone call coming from a woman.

On the phone, it is natural to be coquettish to Li Chenghao.

IU's expression didn't change, but he thought in his heart: "Who, I've been coquettish all the time making a phone call, Li Chenghao did it on purpose, so that I could hear him flirting with other women." ”

"So suddenly?"

"Oba, this is the first time I've officially invited Oba to dinner, can Oba bear to refuse me?"

Li Chenghao really wanted to refuse

The person who called him was not so kind as the one who would invite him to dinner for no reason.

It is absolutely impossible to say that there is no purpose.

The problem is that when it comes to this, Li Chenghao is not easy to refuse.

"Got it, send me the address"

"I'll send it to Oba right away, remember to come over early."

Hang up

Li Chenghao glanced at IU: "Are you in the company tomorrow?" ”

IU muttered in a low voice, "I don't know"

"Home?"

"I don't know"

"Forget it, I'll call you tomorrow."

Putting away his phone, Li Chenghao turned around and left the lounge.

"Knock"

With the sound of the door closing, IU threw away the cotton pad in his hand: "Can't wait so much, I still go outside to see women at this time, what a womanizer." ”

Hapjeong-dong, a potato spine soup shop that has been open for nearly forty years.

At the beginning of the day, there were not many customers who chose to eat at this restaurant for the first dinner.

For young people, the nightlife starts at 12 a.m., and the potato spine soup is often served as a decanting soup before entering the restaurant at the third session.

The shop as a whole is not spacious, and the decoration is not gorgeous.

It is a family-style restaurant that has been renovated from a private house.

The owner is a couple in their 60s, with a gentle personality, just like grandparents living in their hometown, and takes special care of young people who come to eat at the restaurant.

For potato backbone soup for two, the boss will give a lot of large backbones with meat, as if he is afraid that the guests will not be full.

Next to the corner dining table on the right side of the kitchen.

The half-load-bearing wall can be used as a shield, although it is not like a private room, but it also has a good privacy protection effect.

There was a bunch of complimentary side dishes on the table, and a potato pancake was also presented.

"Where's Oba?"

"Oh, got it, we're here, and we're in the right corner of the kitchen when we enter the store."

As soon as she finished the call, the girl sitting against the wall asked excitedly, "Is he coming?" ”

"Five Minutes"

"What to do, there are five minutes left"

"Ernie calm down, the most important thing now is what Ernie is going to show when he comes in a moment."

"yes, lines, lines, ah, which line am I going to perform?"

"Ernie wait a minute, let's get my makeup in order."

The girl who took off her cap and stroked her hair looked a little flustered with every movement.

When it was a companion on the side, he turned on the mobile phone camera unhurriedly, and used it as a mirror to help the girl tidy it up after switching lenses.

Five minutes later

Li Chenghao appeared at the door of the potato backbone soup shop.

After glancing at it, she strode towards the dining table in the right corner of the kitchen after spotting the person who had invited her.

"Oba is coming"

"Good evening President Nim"

Pulling out the stool and sitting down, Li Chenghao nodded lightly in response.

looked at the girl opposite: "Kim Ji-ni, did you drink?" ”

The person who called Lee Sung-ho to dinner was none other than Kim Ji-ni of the idol group Blackpink, and Kim Ji-so came with her.

knew that this girl would not invite herself to dinner for no reason, and seeing that Kim Ji-so was also there, Lee Sung-ho instantly understood Kim Ji-ni's careful thoughts.

"Oba, am I a drunkard?"

"Why didn't you drink alcohol, why did you find a potato backbone soup restaurant to eat?"

Under the table, Kim Ji-ni held Kim Ji-so's hand tightly.

"Oba, what to eat is not the point, in fact, tonight is mainly Ernie who wants to see Oba."

Li Chenghao thought he had misheard.

frowned slightly and looked at Kim Ji-ni, and then glanced at Kim Ji-so, who was sitting next to her with her head bowed.

This atmosphere is a bit like an occasion to introduce a blind date.

"Don't get me wrong, I mean tonight Ernie wants to show off the results of his recent acting lessons."

Li Chenghao replied lightly: "Shouldn't this kind of thing be looking for Minister Jin Anmin, why are you looking for me?" ”
