Peninsula: I, a chaebol! I will never follow hidden rules.

Li Zhixuan wants to turn Jeju Island into Zhixuan Island, so his businesses will definitely have to be moved there. Only by controlling the economic lifeline of Jeju Island can it truly be considered his territory.

Min Jae-sung's reason for suggesting that Li Zhixuan move the Hyunwoo Group headquarters to Jeju Island after the film and television city is built and operational is nothing special. He simply hopes that Li Zhixuan can take it one step at a time, because things will work out better if things are done slowly.

It was lunchtime soon, and who should I eat with?
At first, Li Zhixuan wanted to have lunch with Secretary Jin, but Secretary Jin went back to her mansion in Seongnam City to see Xiao Wu.

Later, Li Zhixuan wanted to have lunch with Li Cailing, but Li Cailing, Quan Enbi, and Shen Youna were actually in a mansion in Seongnam City discussing how to build a doghouse—the same doghouse that Shen Youna had designed before the Lunar New Year.

Previously, Li Zhixuan didn't have time to build the doghouse with Shen Youna. Now that Li Cailing and the others are on vacation, Shen Youna invited Li Cailing and Quan Enbi, who was very interested in the matter, to build the doghouse together.

Except for Jeon Boram, the other five members of Tara went to China to hold a concert.

Krystal Jung, along with Girls' Generation members except for Yoona and Jessica Jung, all went to Japan to attend a concert.

Mina and Sana Minato went back to their hometown in Japan during their vacation.

Zhao Meiyan, Huang Lizhi, and Jin Dongdong went back to Busan for fun.

Kim So-jung is in Seoul, but she and her GFRIEND teammates are busy recording a new album at the company.

As a result, after asking around, Li Zhixuan found that most of his girlfriends were not in Seoul and were all busy with their own things.

Could it be that fate is sending me to find Yuan Ying and the other two?
Since it's fate, then let's go for it.

Meanwhile, in Li Zhixuan's small house, Zhang Yuanying and the other two were eating takeout while discussing when Li Zhixuan would come to see them.

Ahn Yoo-jin: "We agreed to see each other every day, so he'll definitely come to see us today, right?"

Jin Qiutian immediately expressed a different opinion: "Not necessarily. Oppa must be very busy with work, right? Can he even take care of us? I think it would be good if we could see him every few days."

Upon hearing this, An Youzhen became displeased: "Then wouldn't that mean he broke his promise?"

Jin Qiutian shrugged: "So what? Do you dare punish him? You're the one pursuing him now, so of course he can do whatever he wants."

This……

That's right, Jin Qiutian was absolutely right. An Youzhen had no way to refute it. She could only angrily eat the last bite of her noodles, then wipe her mouth with a tissue and say with a face full of resentment, "How boring! Staying in this little house all day without a man to keep me company is so boring! How about we go shopping this afternoon?"

At this moment, Zhang Yuanying, who had been busy eating, spoke up, pointing to An Youzhen's ankle, which had just started to subside: "How can you go shopping with your ankle like this?"

It's not that you can't go out with crutches, but it's too tiring to keep using crutches all the time.

"Sigh!" Ahn Yoo-jin pouted slightly and sighed pitifully, "If only I had a wheelchair."

"drop--"

As soon as Ahn Yoo-jin finished speaking, a notification sound came from the doorway indicating that the smart lock had unlocked.

All three of them were stunned. Then Zhang Yuanying threw down her chopsticks, got up, and ran towards the door.

"Oppa!"

Upon seeing that it was indeed Li Zhixuan, Zhang Yuanying happily hugged him.

At this moment, Zhang Yuanying was wearing a pink polka-dot short-sleeved pajama top and pants, and her hair was styled in a low side ponytail, making her look gentle and sweet.

Her bare face was particularly delicate, and although there was some black sauce on her lips, she didn't look sloppy at all; on the contrary, she looked rather cute.

Li Zhixuan lowered his head and kissed her pink lips, then gently licked the sauce from the corner of her mouth with the tip of his tongue: "Noodles with soybean paste? Takeout, please."

I forgot to wipe my mouth!
Zhang Yuanying nodded, a little embarrassed, her face slightly flushed.

"Is this what you're having for lunch?"

"And sweet and sour pork too."

"That's too easy. Let's eat something better."

Zhang Yuanying smiled but didn't say anything, but Jin Qiutian's voice came from the living room: "Only 1% of people in all of Seoul can afford to eat meat every day. We are already eating very well."

"One percent?!"

Hearing this, Li Zhixuan put his arm around Zhang Yuanying's waist and walked from the entrance into the living room. Then he looked at Jin Qiutian sitting on the sofa and asked, "Is that exaggerated? Where did you get the data?"

"That's what they said in the news. It's supposedly based on statistics from the National Bureau of Statistics."

"People in developed countries can't even afford meat?"

Li Zhixuan has been in South Korea for over a year. He knows that meat prices are high, but he didn't know that ordinary people couldn't afford to eat meat.

Hearing Li Zhixuan say this, Jin Qiutian quickly explained, "It's not that we can't afford it, it's just that we can't bear to eat it every day."

"Every day? I can't eat a meal without meat."

Hearing this, the three women barely managed to suppress the urge to glare at the scumbag oppa. Ahn Yoo-jin retorted, "If someone of your status can't even afford meat, then what about us ordinary people who can't even afford tree bark?"

This makes sense.

"Hey? What do you guys think would be great if I started a charity and sent meat to elderly people living alone, disabled people, and children in orphanages?"

A brilliant idea flashed through Li Zhixuan's mind, and he came up with a charitable project.

Zhang Yuanying said, "You can do this on certain holidays, but there's no need to do it often. If you feed the people you just mentioned too well, they will be cyberbullied, and you will be cyberbullied too."

"Of course, there has to be a limit to doing charity."

Most people can't eat meat every day. If Li Zhixuan were to let the lowest-income people eat too much meat, they would definitely complain.

However, with Li Zhixuan's business growing bigger and bigger, it is indeed time to establish a charitable foundation.

Firstly, he can use this thing to build a good reputation. Secondly, he can use this thing to evade taxes.

But that's a story for another time. Right now, we should be discussing the issue of food.

"What would you like to eat? I'll make it for you."

You should have said so earlier! If you had told me I'd have a chance to eat your cooking, who would still want to eat noodles with soybean paste!

Ahn Yoo-jin only dared to complain in her heart, but on the surface she said helplessly, "I'm full."

"We're full too."

"Then I'll just do what I want."

Zhang Yuanying immediately said, "I'll help you."

Jin Qiutian quickly stood up as well: "I'll join you too."

Ahn Yoo-jin wanted to, but her legs were too weak, so she didn't try.

Seeing how enthusiastic the girls were, Li Zhixuan waved his hand and laughed, "Alright, alright, the kitchen here is tiny, it's too cramped for three people. Besides, I'm not making anything complicated, just some fried noodles, so I don't need your help."

Lee Chi-hyun hadn't lived here for a long time; previously, someone would come to clean the place regularly. Yesterday, before returning to Seoul, Lee Chi-hyun had someone prepare all the necessities for the house. The food in the refrigerator was also freshly prepared, but Jang Won-young and the others weren't good at cooking and were too lazy to do so, so they hadn't touched any of the food in the refrigerator.

Li Zhixuan eats by himself, and he's too lazy to make anything too complicated. He first steams the fresh noodles, then chops some scallions, ginger, garlic, pork belly, and some green vegetables.

Render the fat from the pork belly, then add scallions, ginger, and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Next, add the greens and stir-fry briefly, then add appropriate amounts of light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, chicken bouillon, and salt, and stir-fry a few more times.

Finally, add the steamed noodles and stir-fry until they are separated. The fragrant stir-fried noodles are then ready to be served.

Fried noodles with an ice-cold cola – that's a simple, unpretentious lunch for a chaebol.

Began to eat!
Li Zhixuan was about to start eating, but with the three people next to him staring intently at him, he hesitated to open his mouth.

"Didn't you eat your fill?"

The three of them remained silent, still staring at her.

Li Zhixuan said helplessly, "Alright, alright, I'll share some with you, okay?"

"Thank you, Oppa!"

It wasn't that the little girls were too greedy; it was just that Li Zhixuan's fried noodles smelled so good.

Li Zhixuan only ate half of the last serving of fried noodles; the other half was shared among the three little girls, who were all stuffed.

Zhang Yuanying was genuinely happy while eating, but regretted it afterward.

Why?

Eating too much is bad for exercising! What if you throw up halfway through exercising?
Afterwards, they chatted as they cleared the table.

"Yuanying, did you sleep here last night too?"

"Yeah, I didn't go home. Oppa, are you taking a nap here too? If you're worried about it being crowded, I can sleep on the sofa."

You're sleeping on the sofa?

Ahn Yoo-jin and Kim Qiu-tian exchanged a glance, wanting to laugh but also feeling a little embarrassed.

Li Zhixuan said, "No need to sleep on the sofa, we'll go sleep next door in a bit."

The house next door used to be rented by Zhao Meiyan. She only found out that the house belonged to Lin Yun'er when Zhao Meiyan stopped renting it. Lin Yunzhen had been renting it out on her behalf.

What a coincidence! Li Zhixuan and Lin Yun'er's houses are right next to each other. Isn't that fate?
Since it's Yoona's house, it's no different from Li Zhixuan's own house.

With only one double bed for the four of them, how were they supposed to sleep? So Li Zhixuan decided to take Zhang Yuanying to the next room.

Upon hearing this, An Youzhen became unhappy: "Go next door? I might as well sleep on the sofa! We agreed to meet every day, are you really just letting me and Qiutian see you?"

In response, Li Zhixuan lightly flicked An Youzhen's forehead, then deliberately put on a stern face and said, "Don't always try to take advantage of me. Even if you want to do something, you should wait until your injury has healed."

Ahn Yoo-jin immediately puffed out her cheeks slightly and retorted, "I'm injured, but Qiu Tian isn't. How about this, I'll sleep on the sofa, and the three of you can sleep in the bedroom, okay?"

"Wow!" Jang Won-young covered her mouth in astonishment: "Yoojin unnie is so amazing!"

Jin Qiutian quickly reached out and shook An Youzhen's hands, saying solemnly, "Thank you, Youzhen!"

An Youzhen really wanted to say: I was just saying that, and you guys actually took it seriously?

But would she dare say that out loud? Not really. So she could only pretend to be very loyal and say, "You're welcome. We're good sisters, we should help each other out."

Does she really think that way? Li Zhixuan doesn't believe it.

So Li Zhixuan nodded: "Okay! Let's do it this way. Come on, let's go rest. Youzhen, you can take a nap on the sofa too."

As he spoke, Li Zhixuan put his arm around Zhang Yuanying and went to the bedroom. Jin Qiutian followed behind, wanting to laugh but not daring to, for fear of hurting An Youzhen's feelings.

An Youzhen was unaware that Li Zhixuan had already obtained permission from his wives to date them, so she was quite surprised by the speed of Li Zhixuan's change of heart.

He actually brought Qiu Tian to his afternoon nap! This...

They'll probably just sleep peacefully and won't do anything else, right? If they do something else, wouldn't I be at a huge loss?

The more An Youzhen thought about it, the more anxious she became. Less than a minute later, she couldn't hold back any longer. She took her cane, supported herself under her arm, and then slowly and quietly made her way to the master bedroom door, pressing her ear against the door to eavesdrop.

The three people in the bedroom had just brushed their teeth. Many people in South Korea have this habit of brushing their teeth after every meal.

Of course, Zhang Yuanying and Jin Qiutian brushed their teeth this time not mainly for hygiene and to protect their teeth, but so that they could kiss properly later.

Actually, right after brushing her teeth, Zhang Yuanying hugged Li Zhixuan and tried to kiss him. Li Zhixuan simply gave her a light kiss, then put his arms around both girls' waists and lay them down on the bed.

"I just ate, so lie down and fatten up. Don't move around too much, or you'll throw up."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuanying immediately pouted: "But if I don't do anything, I'll definitely gain weight."

"So what if you gain weight? You look better if you're a little chubby."

Hearing this, Zhang Yuanying was delighted, while Jin Qiutian quickly asked, "What about me?"

"Smack!" Li Zhixuan turned to look at Jin Qiutian and gave her a light kiss, then said, "You look pretty good right now, just keep it that way."

"it is good."

Smiling and nodding, Jin Qiutian wrapped her arms around Li Zhixuan's neck and kissed him.
Seeing this, Zhang Yuanying didn't want to be idle and immediately began to take action.

Since it was two little girls trying to cheer Li Zhixuan up, An Youzhen, who was eavesdropping outside the door for a long time, didn't hear any strange noises and thought that the three people in the bedroom were really sleeping peacefully.

Afterwards, Ahn Yoo-jin, feeling both disappointed and relieved, leaned on her crutches and went back to lie down on the sofa.

When she woke up again, she found Zhang Yuanying and Jin Qiutian sitting on the carpet next to her, playing on their phones. Li Zhixuan was nowhere to be seen.
Where's Oppa?

Jin Qiutian said, "Oppa has something urgent to attend to and has gone to Busan."

Busan?!

An Youzhen was taken aback: "He ran so far? What happened? When will he be back?"

Jang Won-young explained, "I took Mi-yeon unnie and Ye-ji unnie to a haunted house in winter, and she fainted from fright. Oppa went to see her. If it's nothing serious, Oppa will be back tomorrow, but if Winter is seriously ill, then it's uncertain."

"You were so scared at the haunted house that you fainted? How long have you been unconscious? Are you still not awake?"

Neither Zhang Yuanying nor Jin Qiutian could answer this question, because they didn't know and didn't want to bother Li Zhixuan.

At the same time, Li Zhixuan had just arrived at Busan Hospital and saw Jin Dongdong, who was lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed and his face pale.

"It's been over two hours, why hasn't she woken up yet?"

"This……"
