From that Korean city.

Chapter 448: Brave and Fearless Jessica (asking for monthly ticket)

"Oppa, garlic."

"coming."

"Oppa, where's the meat? Meat."

"It's right next to you. See it?"

"Oh, where's the spatula? I can't find it."

Lin Yi, who was standing behind Taozi, looked at the cute girl in front of him, then turned around to look at Lee So Hee and Goo Hara who were standing at the kitchen door. The two of them also smiled at him, as if they had already known about the situation, so they stood at the door to watch the show.

In response, Lin Yi could only smile and then turned back to look at Taozi who was struggling with the prawns in the sink.

Then he took a step forward, hugged Taozi from behind, and as she screamed, he lifted her up with a little force, turned half his body, and lifted her away from the sink.

"Okay, stop messing around. Go out and get some fruit and salad with Hola, as well as the braised and cold dishes I bought. Pour them out and arrange them on the plates."

After finishing his instructions, Lin Yi hooked his finger at the receptionist again, "Shao Xi, come in and help me. Let's finish it quickly and eat."

Li Shaoxi, who was called, smiled and passed by Taozi.

Taozi pouted and said, "I can cook. I memorized it all when I saw V's mom cooking. I just forgot the steps all of a sudden and need some time to recall them."

Facing Taozi's small grievance, Lin Yi smiled and reached out to rub her head with a bun, "Okay, I believe you, but just give me a chance tonight and let me cook for you."

The gentle tone and the clear and charming voice with a hint of smile made Taozi no longer feel aggrieved. She turned back to look at the man with a smile on her face again, "Hehe, Oppa, can I order food?"

As a result, the man who was smiling gently in the last second immediately slapped her on the forehead in the next second, "No, the ingredients are fixed, and you still want to order a stupid meal."

Taozi, holding her head, felt wronged again, and then she heard the man's helpless laughter, "Next time, okay, next time."

"Okay, next time then."

Taozi, who was finally satisfied, nodded heavily, then walked out of the kitchen with a happy smile, intending to complete the task assigned by Lin Yi with Goo Hara.

However, Goo Hara teased her a little, "Tsk tsk, Zhenli, this guy dismissed you with just two simple sentences? You are too easy to be dealt with, this won't do."

"No way." Taozi naturally refused to admit it.

Just as Goo Hara was about to continue her teasing remarks, another voice spoke first, "Hara, you seem very energetic. Shaoxi, go and switch with her. You stay with Taozi. Hara, come in and help me."

Looking up, Goo Hara saw the back of the man who was preparing prawns in the kitchen, and she let out a sound with her cherry lips slightly parted.

What a disaster!
Lee So Hee, who was standing next to her, was really amused this time. She couldn't help laughing so hard that she washed her hands. She turned around and looked at Goo Hara, her eyes full of joy.

So just like that, the two small teams for dinner tonight were divided.

After walking out of the kitchen, Li Shaoxi looked back at the unwilling Gu Hara and said to Taozi with a very happy smile, "See, I told you that Oppa is petty, you didn't believe it before, but now you believe it."

Also looking at Gu Hara who was already under Lin Yi's command in the kitchen, Taozi finally nodded and replied, gesturing, "A little bit at a time."

Knowing that this person was a huge fan of her oppa, Lee So Hee didn't plan to discuss this meaningless topic with her anymore. Instead, she changed direction and looked around her apartment, feeling a little envious.

"The environment and location of your apartment are really great, Zhenli. It's a top-floor apartment with a garden at the entrance and a teak balcony at the back. You can see the Namsan Tower in the distance and the night view of Seoul. It's great."

After walking out of the dining and kitchen area and saying the above words, Li Shaoxi immediately saw the super large sliding glass door that connected the living room and the balcony.

A sofa bed is placed in the middle next to the sliding door, so you can watch TV in the living room or enjoy the night sky outside the balcony.

so perfect.

As for Li Shaoxi's envy, Taozi seemed very calm, as if she had thought of something, "If you, Shaoxi, had debuted as a child star since childhood, filming movies, commercials, practicing, and debuting, I believe you could also earn enough to buy a house like this, or even more."

Li Shaoxi, who was walking slowly towards the balcony on the solid wooden floor, put away his previous envy after listening to Taozi's words, and looked at the night sky outside with a slightly serious expression.

"Forget it then. After seeing the lives of Yoona and you guys, I think it's better to be an ordinary person. Although you earn less, you can live happily. If you live an unhappy life, it's useless to have money."

"Of course, I can say this because I am financially independent now. If I were the me before I met Oppa, working three jobs a day and having to bear the high-interest loan from my mother, I would probably choose to become a star."

Li Shaoxi made a lot of money last year, really.

Putting aside the special circumstances of idol artists, this is already considered a high-level income for normal office workers.

The main reason was that the commission Lin Yi gave her later was converted into a share of the profits. In addition to the basic salary, bonus and business commission, she could also get a share of the company's total revenue, which means she got four shares of the money at one time.

Her identity was changed not long after she went to college and was feeling a little anxious. She jumped numerous levels from a comprehensive profession including front desk + finance + photo retouching + security + reception + human resources, and was also given the title of partner.

It can be said that of the studio's entire year's income last year, except for the rent, water, electricity, and Lin Yi's travel and tourism expenses, the remaining money basically went into Li Shaoxi's pocket.

It is for this reason that Li Shaoxi was able to say just now that she has achieved "financial freedom".

Lin Yi, who was nominally the boss, was turned into a social animal who worked for free. He had no income at all and just simply got some reimbursement for travel expenses a few times.

Not really, at least he could get back some rent, utilities, etc. Because Li Shaoxi didn't know that the house had been bought by Lin Yi, he still remitted the money to the new 'landlord' on time every month.

In fact, when Li Shaoxi learned that Lin Yi was going to do this, he was very scared, fearing that this oppa would just throw the studio to him and run away.

To the extent that there was a time when I would call him every day to check on him and ask where he was and what he was doing.

It was not until Lin Yi called for a stop that Li Shaoxi stopped her workplace harassment.

Taozi also knew about this situation.

At first, she didn't quite understand Lin Yi's approach, because she felt that helping out was fine, but giving without expecting anything in return wasn't a good idea, and she was worried that it would cause Li Shaoxi some unnecessary trouble.

Later, after Lin Yoona invited her to live with her in the apartment for a few days, Taozi finally understood this truth.

In a few days, she saw how Lin Yi made money, and he even earned a year's worth of the studio's sales in just one night.

Knowing this, Taozi also understood why Lin Yi didn't care about the situation in the studio, because in his opinion, the sunk cost of this studio was nothing at all.

Thinking of this, Taozi looked at Li Shaoxi, "By the way, Shaoxi, didn't Oppa talk to you yesterday about hiring a photographer? What are your plans? I have a few good ones here, would you like me to recommend them to you?"

It would be fine if he didn't mention this. As soon as he mentioned this, Li Shaoxi felt a little flustered. He looked back at the kitchen with worry, and then whispered in Taozi's ear, "Jin Li, do you think Oppa is planning to give up this studio when he proposed this idea? I'm a little panicked. If he really runs away, I don't think I can hold on."

"Shao Xi, you are not as confident as you normally are when facing clients." Taozi said with a smile.

In this regard, Li Shaoxi did not hesitate to lay out his cards, "It is because I have Oppa's support that I can stand up straight. Otherwise, how can I, a college student, have the confidence?"

Facing Li Shaoxi's answer, Taozi also agreed, "It seems so."

"So, I couldn't sleep the whole night because I was scared by what Oppa mentioned to me yesterday."

This time, Taozi looked at Li Shaoxi who was a little worried, and said something to wake her up.

"Shao Xi, this isn't the first day you've known Oppa. You've been with him for so long, don't you know his character? If he really wanted to run away, he definitely wouldn't tell you that he wouldn't run away."

"He is the kind of person who will disappear in the blink of an eye."

"But since he said before that he won't run away, and he still wants this studio, he won't lie to you. Although Oppa has many shortcomings, I think he is still reliable in terms of respect and trust."

As Li Shaoxi listened, she agreed with Taozi's statement and nodded gently, "Indeed, I believe in Oppa, but I am nervous, alas."

"Relax, if you really feel that it's not possible, then think about it from another perspective, Oppa can run away, but the monk cannot run away from the temple."

Li Shaoxi didn't understand this sentence for a moment, and looked at Taozi with a confused pair of beautiful eyes.

Then Taozi pointed in a certain direction and said, "In the company building over there, there is a woman that Oppa will never give up. You can't forget her, right?"

The words awakened Li Shaoxi, who suddenly realized something and smiled, and clenched her little hands.

“Oh, Yoona-unnie.”

"right."

"Wow, Dafa, Zhenli, you have become smarter."

"Ah, how can you talk like that?"

"Hehe, I was wrong, I was wrong, Tietie. Fortunately, I have you, fortunately, I have you."

"Okay, stop thinking about it and go wash the fruit so you don't get scolded again."

"I'm coming."

……

……

Haha~
After sneezing, Lin Yoona rubbed her delicate nose and wrinkled it a little bit feeling itchy.

Little Sun, who was watching the situation, said with concern, "Are you okay, Yoona? Don't catch a cold at this critical moment."

"No, my nose just itches a little. I guess someone is saying something bad about me."

After rubbing her nose, Lin Yuner, who had returned to normal, smiled and said, "Besides, it's been a long time since I was sick last time. I don't think I was sick last year. Before worrying about me, you might as well worry about yourself. You just recovered from your cold a few days ago."

The little sun who was humiliated glared at the second youngest member, "That was when we stayed up late playing games. We were not wearing enough clothes and caught a cold. It will heal soon."

And when she talked about games, her eyes immediately lit up, "By the way, Yoona, can you go back and help me get Lin Yi's..."

As soon as Little Sun opened her mouth, Yoona guessed what she wanted to say, so she interrupted her without thinking twice.

"No, unnie, please stop talking. You all are using me as a spy, right? He asked me to steal your things, and you asked me to steal his things back. What the hell is this? If you want, just go find him directly..."

"If I could get it by asking, I would have asked a long time ago. The last time I went to your place to look for the game tapes, he actually locked them in the safe. That's too much."

Tiffany, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but laugh when she heard Xiao Yang's complaint. "Is it that exaggerated? What kind of game is this? Is it precious?"

"It's not a rare game, just an old one that's hard to find. I was too lazy to look for it, so I thought about asking him for it to play, but he said he hadn't played it yet, so he wouldn't give it to me. I was so pissed."

While Xiao Taiyang and Tiffany were complaining, Lin Yoona had already seized the opportunity and quietly left.

At the same time, Jessica, who had been paying attention to this place, seemed to see an opportunity, so she came over and whispered in Little Sun's ear, "Sunkyu, if I were you, I would not admit it and just go and beat him up and see if he gives in."

"???"

This familiar style of fanning the flames made Xiao Yang unable to tell for a moment whether it was he who spoke the words or Jessica.

After a long while, he looked at Jessica speechlessly, "Xiu Yan, if you have a grudge against him, just beat him up. I won't take the blame. Look at my height, I'm cute enough. If I take the blame again, it would be a bit childish, and that's illegal."

Jessica's face turned slightly red. She didn't expect that the little thought she had just expressed would be exposed at once.

So he quickly denied it, "I didn't. I have any grudge against that guy. If I did, I would have beaten him up long ago."

"Really?"

The questioning tone really made Jessica a little crazy.

Finally, he turned around and left Little Sun, planning to find another way. He also went out to use the toilet and wash his hands.

Behind her, Little Sun looked at her exasperated back, stroked her cheek with her little hand, took a small breath, and began to ask and answer her own questions.

"Hiss, is there something wrong between Xiuyan and that guy Lin Yi? Yes, 100%, it's for sure."

the other side.

Jessica walked out of the practice room and was about to go to the bathroom, but she ran into Krystal in the corridor, whom she hadn't seen for several days.

Looking at the familiar figure from behind, a smile appeared on his little face with excitement, and he shouted towards the other party very bravely and fearlessly.

“Oh, Soojung.”
