Peninsula: The Great Producer

Qi Yaojiu was awakened by thirst.

He groped his way along the wall and turned on the light in the room.

He covered his eyes with the back of his hand, and after a few seconds of adjustment, Qi Yaojiu slowly lowered his hand.

Familiar environment, no deviation.

He slowly half sat up, threw back the quilt, put on his slippers, and walked towards the door of the room.

"Click"

After unlocking the door, Qi Yaojiu rubbed his temples.

Qi Yaojiu walked through the corridor, glanced at the living room unconsciously, and took a few steps towards the kitchen, but suddenly stopped.

Turn around and look back.

I'm not seeing things.

There was a person lying on the sofa in the living room.

Qi Yaojiu was absolutely sure that this was his rental house in Yeouido, and he was also absolutely sure that there was a person standing and lying on the sofa.

Curled up on the sofa, lying on his side, Qi Yaojiu could only see his bent legs, just like the sleeping position of a baby in his mother's belly.

I couldn't make out his face, it was completely blocked by the left armrest of the sofa.

His clothes were very ordinary, just the simplest casual pants, and you could also see a pair of lace socks.

Qi Yaojiu did not step forward rashly.

He was recalling who he had brought home last night.

Nothing happened. If something had happened, he wouldn't be lying on the sofa but on the bed in the bedroom with me.

So, who is that person lying on the sofa?
Last night, we went to Cai Bao Rou Restaurant and had dinner with about 30 people from the cast and production team of "Heroes".

I still remember that last night I had just sat down and hadn't even taken a bite of food when I was asked to speak.

After a few very official and general remarks, everyone raised their glasses to wish "Heroes" good results.

Starting from this first glass, Qi Yaojiu never put down his glass for almost five minutes.

Lu Shiyan, Li Zhen, Park Jiaxi, Zheng Jiaen, Lee Huicai, Lee Soo Geun, Hong Xiuer, one after another, toasted to him individually.

I only remember that every time I finished drinking, it was Lee Ji-eun who would pour wine for me.

Even though it was rice wine, Qi Yaojiu couldn't stand it after one round.

In between, I ate a meat and vegetable wrap made by Lee Ji-eun. My stomach was bloated, so I went to the bathroom next door. After I came back, I started drinking again. Then someone started singing and we played various drinking games. The atmosphere was very good. I can’t remember what happened to Ki Yo-jiu afterwards.

I felt around and found that my cell phone was not in my pocket.

If I had my phone with me, I could use the call logs or something to help me remember.

Recovering his thoughts, Qi Yaojiu moved towards the sofa.

Before he got close enough, the sound of a text message on his cell phone startled Qi Yaojiu.

Standing blankly in the middle of the corridor in front of the living room, Qi Yaojiu subconsciously held his breath and stared at the sofa.

No movement.

Qi Yaojiu breathed a sigh of relief and continued to move forward.

He tiptoed around like a thief in his own rental house.

He licked his dry lips.

Qi Yaojiu didn't know what was wrong with him. His heartbeat was accelerating uncontrollably and he was in a state of anxiety and tension.

The outline of the person lying on the sofa gradually came into Qi Yaojiu's field of vision.

He was wearing a sports T-shirt.

It's a ponytail hairstyle.

The body looks relatively petite.

The side profile is revealed, with fair skin, chubby cheeks, a nose that is not that strong, closed eyes, and a full forehead.

It's the outline of a child.

It’s Lee Ji-eun.

"Whoo~"

Qi Yaojiu breathed a sigh of relief.

The whole person relaxed instantly.

I thought it was someone lying on the sofa, but it turned out to be Lee Ji-eun.

Qi Yaojiu, who was about to go drink water, thought about it and went back to the bedroom. Soon, Qi Yaojiu returned to the living room with an air-conditioned quilt, bent down and gently placed the quilt on Li Zhien.

This girl, is she lacking a sense of security when she sleeps? Not only are her legs bent and curled up, but her hands are also bent and clenched into fists.

Lee Ji-eun said "hmm" twice.

Qi Yaojiu didn't wake her up. Seeing that there was no other movement, he tiptoed to the kitchen.

After drinking the water, Qi Yaojiu's sleepiness disappeared.

There were some uneaten side dishes in the refrigerator, and I wanted to make something, but unfortunately there was no rice or other ingredients at home.

I found my phone on the cabinet in the entrance hall just after 8 o'clock in the morning.

Qi Yaojiu finally went out.

嘤嘤
The chirping of cicadas can be heard from the trunks of the lush banyan trees in the atrium of the apartment complex.

The warm sunshine of early summer pours into the house through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the 180-degree panoramic terrace.

on the sofa.

Li Zhien opened her eyes in a daze.

He stretched himself and made another "hmm" sound from his mouth.

Suddenly waking up, Lee Ji-eun stood up, supported herself on the sofa with her hands, twisted her body and looked towards the corridor.

The house was very quiet, and it felt like IU was the only one there.

After waking up, Li Zhien's mind was working rapidly. Is Qi Yaojiu awake? What time is it now?

Grabbing the phone on the coffee table, Lee Ji-eun looked at the time and saw that it was already past 9 o'clock in the morning.

At a glance, you can see the entire Han River from the floor-to-ceiling windows.

This was the first time that Lee Ji-eun saw such a beautiful morning view of the Han River.

There is a lot of traffic on the road and tall buildings stand nearby.

There are people running and walking in the park by the Han River, and there are boats in the river slowly moving through the calm water.

No wonder rich people choose high-end luxury apartments. It is a real enjoyment to be able to see such beautiful scenery at home.

As the night deepens, you can sit on the balcony and enjoy red wine, music and the magnificent night view.

After patting her cheeks lightly, Lee Ji-eun looked down and realized that she was covered with an air-conditioned quilt.

Muttering: "What? I didn't have this quilt when I slept last night."

After reacting, Li Zhien called out "Oppa"

There was no response in the room except for his own voice.

Muttering: "Could it be that he went to work?"

Lifting the air-conditioned quilt, Lee Ji-eun stood up and walked towards the bedroom.

She was also very careful, afraid of waking up Qi Yaojiu who was still sleeping.

He tiptoed to the bedroom door, held the door handle with his right hand and was about to open the door to check on Qi Yaojiu's condition.

"Drip drip drip"

"Click"

The door at the right end of the corridor suddenly opened.

Lee Ji-eun kept her posture and turned her head to look. Ki Yo-jiu appeared at the door with a plastic bag of food in his hand. Now she was looking into Lee Ji-eun's eyes.

The first person to speak was Qi Yaojiu, "What did you do to me by sneaking into my room?"

Li Zhien quickly withdrew her hand, stood up straight and said: "No, Oppa, what are you talking about? I just checked to see if Oppa woke up."

After changing into slippers, Qi Yaojiu continued, "The house has never been cleaned. Aren't you afraid of getting dirty?"

Li Zhien didn't even glance at her socks, and said casually: "I couldn't sleep last night, so I just cleaned the house."

Qi Yaojiu walked to the front of the restaurant and stopped.

From a distance of about ten meters, Qi Yaojiu looked at Li Zhien and asked, "Did you clean the house last night?"

Li Zhien nodded and asked, "Is it not possible?"

Qi Yaojiu shrugged and said, "I won't pay you for the cleaning. Just consider it as your room payment for last night."

Li Zhien replied: "Tsk, stingy"

Thinking of something, he exclaimed, "Oh no! I forgot to tell Zhong Han Oppa that I stayed at his house last night. What should I do?" (End of this chapter)
