Peninsula: The Great Producer

Chapter 82 Strange Number
Wancai Island, near the pier, and piles of rocks.

Qi Yaojiu and Song Xihai sat on two rocks respectively, holding fishing rods and looking at the sea.

From a distance, it looks like a pleasant picture of life.

"crash"

The sea breeze blew up the waves, which kept hitting the rocks.

Song Xihai tightened the towel around his neck, looked up at the gloomy sky like a philosopher, and sighed: "So-called love..."

Qi Yaojiu interrupted Song Xihai without any hesitation: "Do you know what love is?"

Song Xihai was anxious and turned to Qi Yaojiu and said, "How could I not know? You remember Jin Shunmo, right? You must remember that you were playing basketball next to her on the school playground when she confessed to me."

"In fact, I knew what love was earlier than you, but I just didn't choose to accept her confession at the time."

Qi Yaojiu raised his eyebrows slightly, and said slowly and calmly, "Choice? Doesn't it make sense? Choosing to accept a confession, choosing to fall in love with someone, is just like deciding to fall in love with someone after careful consideration."

Song Xihai was bewildered when he heard this, and his silent mumbling seemed to be protesting against Qi Yaojiu's sudden literary behavior.

"Xi Hai, people don't have such thoughts. Do you know what it means to have no choice and what it means to be unable to control yourself?"

Song Xihai didn't say anything. He knew that no matter what he said, Qi Yaojiu would ignore him.

You shouldn't lament about so-called love, otherwise Qi Yaojiu wouldn't have given such a long speech.

As expected, Qi Yaojiu asked Song Xihai, "Why do people describe the feeling of falling in love as falling in love, rather than jumping into love yourself?"

Song Xihai replied disdainfully: "Why?"

Qi Yaojiu smiled slightly: "Because love itself is the fall of free will."

"what does it mean?"

Taking a deep breath, Qi Yaojiu pulled up the fishing rod and looked at the bait that had been eaten. He said, "Everyone knows there are fish in the sea, but that doesn't mean the fish will bite once you put down the bait."

"speak English"

"Love requires a two-way commitment. If it's just one person, no matter how much you try to please or give, the final result will be..."

"I know, I know. You just want to say that you don't like Miss Seoul. No matter how much she tries to please you, you two won't date. Is that what you mean?"

As soon as Qi Yaojiu opened his mouth, Song Xihai jumped to the topic: "So, who is the person you like, the one who gave you the red tie? Is she a female celebrity?"

After re-baiting and putting down the fishing rod, Qi Yaojiu said slowly, "Why does it have to be the person you like?"

"Not the one you like? Then why don't you wear the tie Miss Seoul gave you? Is it like when I refused Kim Sun-mo's confession?"

I was really stumped by Song Xihai's question.

Not only Song Xihai, but also Qi Yaojiu, who returned home from the Air Force, was asked similar questions by his grandmother after seeing off Cui Zhenna after lunch.

Qi Yaojiu tried his best to explain in a way that his grandmother could understand that he and Choi Jinna were just colleagues and that he had no intention of dating anyone at the moment.

After listening to this, grandma was silent for a while, and then she told Qi Yaojiu a story.

The story begins when my grandmother was 15 years old. That year she first fled from the south to the north.

There, Grandma met the person she was most grateful for in her life.

Yes, she was grateful, grateful to her grandfather who was an 18-year-old soldier who took her in and protected her.

Then the war changed, and grandma and grandpa fled from the north to the south, and finally settled on Wancai Island until today.

Grandma told Qi Yaojiu earnestly that when she was 23 years old, Qi Yaojiu's father was already 6 years old.

Qi Yaojiu tactfully told his grandmother that times have changed.

But this statement was refuted by the grandmother, who asked Qi Yaojiu how the times had changed. Cui, who grew up with Qi Yaojiu, has a 5-year-old child this year.

Qi Yaojiu looked at Song Xihai, who scratched his head and chuckled, "She gave birth to her second child last month."

Grandma immediately responded, "I don't understand much about life in the big city. They say you're on TV and a big star. I'm really proud of you, but I want to remind you not to be like those big stars and not date or get married."

"It's too late for you now. If you're still single when you're 30 or 40, what are you going to do?"

Qi Yaojiu changed the subject: "Xihai, are crabs at their plumpest now?"

Song Xihai was very naive and nodded, saying, "Yes, don't worry, I will prepare for you oysters, abalone, crabs and other delicious seasonal seafood. Twenty servings, right?" Qi Yaojiu took out his wallet and handed about forty or fifty H-dollar bills of fifty thousand each into Song Xihai's hands without counting them.

Song Xihai asked Qi Yaojiu dissatisfiedly: "What are you doing?"

Qi Yaojiu explained: "Even if you are a good friend, I can't ask you for things for free."

Song Xihai didn't take the money. He wasn't showing off deliberately, but was probably speaking the truth. He said, "What I have the most is seafood. I don't know why people who live on land think seafood is a treasure. I'm tired of eating abalone, lobster and scallops every day."

"Take it"

"Forget it. You have a lot of expenses in Seoul, so keep it for yourself. If you want to thank me, I will come to Seoul to find you after this batch of seafood is exported. You can introduce me to a young lady in Seoul."

Grandma found the right moment to say, "Look at Xihai, he..."

Qi Yaojiu stood up and pulled the suitcase in front of him, opened it, and took out a cotton coat: "Grandma, this is a gift."

"Nine, you..."

He took another razor and handed it to Song Xihai: "Yours"

Song Xihai accepted the gift with a smile and asked Qi Yaojiu: "Is this a famous brand product from Seoul?"

Qi Yaojiu nodded: "Seven Eleven"

"Sure enough, the brands are all from Country M."

Qi Yaojiu was very serious and patted Song Xihai's shoulder: "Xihai, when you come to Seoul, you must wait for me to pick you up, definitely."

"Got it. I'll get busy."

Jingle Bell.

Song Xihai had just left.

The next moment, Qi Yaojiu's cell phone rang.

The moment Qi Yaojiu picked up the phone, grandma supported herself on the floor with her hands and moved a little closer to where Qi Yaojiu was sitting.

I opened my phone and saw an unfamiliar number.

Qi Yaojiu didn't answer the phone. He closed the phone again and turned around to see his grandmother trying hard to dodge.

"grandmother."

"Oh, what?"

"Try the clothes on, they should fit."

Grandma picked up the clothes and said, "Who called just now? Why didn't you answer?"

Qi Yaojiu smiled and said, "It's an unfamiliar number."

"If someone calls you, it must be someone you know. You should answer. What if they need you for something?"

Qi Yaojiu didn't care.

Qi Yaojiu saved the numbers of all the people he exchanged contact information with, etc., but it seems that it is not entirely true. There were people who Qi Yaojiu unilaterally gave his number to without asking for their contact information.

It's unlikely. Why would that person call me?

Just thinking about it.

Ding.

A text message alert sounds.

Qi Yaojiu picked up the phone again.

The number that sent the message is the same as the number that called just now.

The message was accompanied by a MMS photo. Although the photo was a bit blurry, it was clearly a photo of his rental house in Seoul.

There was a text underneath the photo that read: "PDnim, on fire."
