Peninsula: The Great Producer

sunset.

The night view of Yeouido is totally incomparable to that of Sangam-dong.

The lights on the high-rise buildings outside the floor-to-ceiling windows were lit up one after another, and the Han River Bridge not far away complemented them.

The streets with no traffic depict the lively scenes of a bustling city. Just sitting on the balcony and drinking a glass of red wine can give you the feeling of standing on the top of the city and overlooking the prosperity.

"Oppa, it's time to eat."

Jiang Minjing brought the fried paste to the table.

Unlike when eating in a restaurant, the zhajiang and noodles are served separately.

Lee Ji-eun was also busy. After bringing the side dishes needed for Korean beef to the table, she went to serve the soup.

The soup is a spicy beef soup that IU made with leftover potatoes and some Korean beef. Regardless of whether it tastes good or not, the color still looks authentic.

Ki Yo-gu stood up and walked towards the kitchen. Kang Min-kyung said without hesitation, "Oppa, can you take the soju and beer out of the refrigerator?"

Jjajangmyeon with soju and beer?

Luckily, Kang Min Kyung added, "If you don't drink something when eating Korean beef, it always feels like something is missing."

It would be acceptable if it had Korean beef, but if it was just noodles, I don’t know about others, but Qi Yaojiu couldn’t drink anyway.

IU echoed, "Oppa, spicy beef soup goes really well with soju and beer."

Qi Yaojiu didn't ask Li Zhien when she learned to cook. When she lived alone in the dormitory, she almost always had three meals a day near the company. Occasionally, she would sneak a meal in a tent carriage or a convenience store.

When IU went to the house rented by her parents during the Mid-Autumn Festival, IU did not go to the kitchen to help cook. Maybe because of this, Qi Yaojiu was looking forward to IU's spicy beef soup even more.

There weren't many dishes, but they filled the table.

There are two main dishes, which is considered a sumptuous meal on a daily table in Country H.

"Oppa, sit here"

"Oppa, sit here."

Lee Ji-eun and Kang Min-kyung were sitting on the left and right sides of the dining table, respectively, and they pulled out chairs and motioned for Ki Yo-jiu to sit down.

Qi Yaojiu smiled and pulled a chair to the middle of the dining table. "Aren't we celebrating my becoming the temporary master of this house today? It's only right for the master to sit in the center seat."

For a good reason, after Ki Yo-gu sat down, Kang Min-kyung and Lee Ji-eun did not show any disappointment on their faces.

After everyone sat down, Lee Ji-eun helped Ki-yo prepare potatoes and beef chunks.

Kang Min Kyung opened some soju and beer and said to Ki Yo Gu, "Oppa soju beer?"

Drinking shochu beer is a thousand times better than drinking shochu alone. At least it tastes more like drinking alcohol.

Qi Yaojiu nodded, picked up the small bowl of fried sauce in front of him and put it to his nose to smell it. It smelled very fragrant, and the color of the spring sauce looked very tempting. He poured it into the bowl of noodles and stirred it. The fried noodles with sauce appeared juicey and clear.

On TV, we often see scenes of H people eating noodles. Not being able to bite them off is the least of their worries. What is really curious is that they fill their mouths with noodles in one bite and look like they are enjoying it.

For so long, Qi Yaojiu has only tried a small bite of fried noodles with soybean paste. At that time, Qi Yaojiu felt that the taste was bland and a little sweet. After that, Qi Yaojiu always ate spicy seafood noodles.

The wine was ready, and Lee Ji-eun's potatoes and beef were served and placed in front of Ki Yo-jiu.

No one spoke, Kang Min Kyung and Lee Ji Eun both looked at Ki Yo Gu eagerly.

So, which one are you waiting for to eat first?
Qi Yaojiu picked up a small piece of noodles and glanced at Li Zhien who was sitting on his left. Li Zhien's lips were moving wildly, and she could hardly hold back and say something.

Putting down his chopsticks, Qi Yaojiu picked up the spoon and scooped up a piece of potato.

Turning his head slightly, Jiang Minjing, who was sitting on the right, began to move his lips wildly again.

It's fun.

Ki Yo-gu put down his spoon and picked up his soju cup.

The wine was purchased, not brewed by anyone, but as soon as I picked up the glass, I heard Li Zhien and Jiang Minjing saying one after another: "Oppa, eat something first and then drink."

Even if they bought it, the wine was bought by Kang Min Kyung, right? Don’t they care about this?

Qi Yaojiu nodded and said, "Yes, eating something and drinking something first will make you feel less uncomfortable." Slowly putting down the wine glass, Qi Yaojiu picked up the chopsticks again.

Just when Kang Min Kyung was secretly happy and Lee Ji Eun was secretly nervous, Ki Yo Jiu moved the small bowl of potatoes and beef to the middle with his free left hand, then picked up the spoon with his left hand and scooped a small piece of potatoes and beef and placed it on the split noodles.

"Oppa"

Both of them were surprised.

Qi Yaojiu continued what he was doing and said, "I want to try how it tastes like this."

Even the best efforts can stump Qi Yaojiu? What a joke!

I took a bite and my mouth was full.

Can it be delicious? The answer is no.

The potato chunks were dry and sticky on their own, and when mixed with the noodles they became even stickier, completely covering up the flavor of the beef.

But compared to the fried noodles with only soy sauce flavor and no saltiness, it has a little more spiciness and is a little smoother.

Swallowed it.

Lee Ji-eun and Kang Min-kyung saw Ki Yo-gu swallow it with their own eyes.

Jiang Minjing immediately asked, "How is it? Is it delicious?"

Raising an eyebrow, Qi Yaojiu downed another glass of beer. After recovering, he said, "It's pretty good if you eat it in the order I just mentioned."

Li Zhien said: "How about another sip of soup?"

Qi Yaojiu picked up the spoon and took a sip, sighing, "Oh~ Jieun, this soup is good."

Li Zhien shook her head happily and said, "As long as Oppa likes to drink it."

Jiang Minjing immediately said, "As for the jjajangmyeon, the Korean beef I used should taste better than pork."

Qi Yaojiu agreed: "Of course, you can open a store now, business must be booming."

Jiang Minjing smiled and subconsciously looked at Li Zhien who was sitting opposite her and said, "IUxi, try it too."

Li Zhien said "yes".

From her perspective, Jiang Minjing was clearly showing off to her.

Qi Yaojiu said that it is good enough to open a store and the business will definitely be good. Is it really that delicious?

After mixing it evenly, I picked up a small piece with chopsticks and put it in my mouth. The taste was mediocre. I ate a piece of pickled radish. It felt similar to the fried noodles made in ordinary Chinese restaurants.

Business must be good? Qi Yaojiu was probably trying to comfort her. If the restaurant really did do well, it would only be patronized by Kang Min Kyung's fans and those LSPs who only cared about looks. Serious diners cared about the taste.

Lee Ji-eun also said to Kang Min-kyung, "Ouni, try the spicy beef soup."

Jiang Minjing picked up the spoon and took a sip, sighing that it was not acting, but the following sentence: "IUxi is such a good cook that she will definitely marry a good man in the future."

"???"

Li Zhien was confused.

Kang Min Kyung has already shifted her attention to Ki Yo Gu.

Qi Yaojiu could feel Jiang Minjing's eyes and said, "Minjing, you will marry a good family in the future."

Jiang Minjing seemed to be waiting for this sentence and immediately replied: "Is this a good family like Oppa?"

Li Zhien opened her mouth wide.

what's the situation?
I am still here.

Is Kang Min Kyung confessing her feelings?

Wow, how dare she.

Li Zhien subconsciously looked at Qi Yaojiu, who smiled and said, "Me? I'm not a good person. Eat quickly. You can go back and rest early. I still have work to do." (End of this chapter)
