Chapter 30: You're Also Qualified? (Part 1) Seeking Recommendations

  The final result, under Kim Min-hee's last promise, is no longer the most important thing for Lee Hyori. For the past few days, she has been pushing away all her schedules and staying at home every day. Sometimes, she hides in her room and peeks through the door gap to watch her younger brother leave for school or come back home. Other times, she sits on the couch and watches him busily moving around in the kitchen. After dinner, she tries her best to keep him company in the living room to watch TV together - these past few days, she feels like she's going a bit crazy!

  ……

  "Hyo-ri, stop drinking! I knew you'd be like this. You said anything and I wouldn't go out with you!" Jin Jae-dong was helpless. He had known Lee Hyo-ri for several years, and their personalities somehow just clicked. After meeting a few times, they became close friends who could talk about anything.

  "Ji Dong Ge, you tell me, what will happen to my brother in the future?" Through the white liquor in the glass cup, a pair of hazy eyes stared at the dazzling colored lights. The music in the bar was very stirring, but at this moment, it couldn't penetrate into Lee Hyori's ears.

  "Is it because of Mu Ziqiu that you're worried? " As for Mu Ziqiu, Kim Jae-dong's first impression was that he wasn't normal, and his second impression was still that he wasn't normal. He also had a younger brother, and his five older sisters were very good to him, but he didn't turn out like Mu Ziqiu either. Sometimes he thought it might be because they didn't have parents, but Mu Ziqiu's attitude towards Lee Hyori and outsiders was so different that he couldn't help but dismiss this idea. He had been raised by Lee Hyori, after all - what kind of person was she? Carefree, wild, and generous... wasn't it said that "near ink, one becomes black; near cinnabar, one becomes red"? Even if Mu Ziqiu had grown up as an orphan for many years, he should have picked up some of Lee Hyori's personality by now. At the very least, he shouldn't be like this...

  "Yes, Zi Qiu has grown up, and I should start thinking about his future." The full cup of white liquor was drained in one gulp, the burning sensation constantly scorching her throat. Compared to the contradictions in her heart, what did these feelings amount to?

  "If I had to say, if Zi Qiu can't change his personality, he will have a hard time achieving great things in the future. Xiaoli, you've been in the entertainment industry for so many years, you should understand that in this society, what kind of personality can make it."

  "Yes, I actually understand, but how can I bear to? Can't bear to! Don't want to say anymore, come, pour me another cup."

  "Still drinking? Don't drink anymore, okay? If you keep drinking, you won't even be able to find your way home." Jin Je-dong pulled out a bottle with remaining liquor from the pile of empty bottles on the table and hid it behind his back. He pressed down Lee Hyo-ri's wine glass that was in front of him, trying to persuade his good friend not to drink anymore, when suddenly he felt a tap on his shoulder.

  "Brother Jie Dong!"

  "Ah, Shangshun, how do you have time to drink?" Just as Jindong was about to persuade Hyeori to go home, a familiar face appeared at the table. He wasn't exactly a close friend, but rather someone Jindong remembered by name only. As an affable person with a wide social circle, he had met this individual only a few times - Lee Shangshun, a young music producer from M Company.

  "This is a great opportunity!" Li Shangshun had actually discovered Kim Jidong and Lee Hyori since entering the bar, but couldn't find a chance to join their table. Just now, seeing that the two seemed to be finishing up, he felt that if he didn't come over now, he probably wouldn't have another chance to hit on his dream girl tonight.

  "Hello, I'm the captain of the team, representing red Lee Hyori!" Lee Hyori was a bit dazed from drinking, but her brain was still somewhat clear. Seeing that it was Kim Jae-dong's friend, she immediately stood up and introduced herself.

  "Hello, I'm M's music producer, Li Shangshun. Nice to meet you." At this moment, Li Shangshun was a bit excited, his goddess was standing right in front of him, and the feeling was like flying on cloud nine, with a big smile spreading across his face.

  "Haha, since you're a friend of Jidong Ge's, that makes you a friend of mine, Li Xiaoli. Please take care of me from now on! Come on, let's have a drink! Where's the wine? Jidong Ge, are you thinking of drinking alone again?"

  "Alright, Xiaoli, I'll send you back."

  "That's how it is, you have to drink at least one cup!" Although he had this thought, Lee Hyori didn't have the ability to pour wine at that moment.

  “Hyo-ri……” Jin Jae-dong held onto Lee Hyo-ri, who was searching for a wine bottle. At that moment, the phone in his pocket rang, “Hyo-ri, wait here, I'll take this call. Hello? What, right away? Got it!” Jin Jae-dong looked at the phone and then at Lee Hyo-ri, feeling torn between work and friendship.

  "Ji Dongge, you go ahead and take care of your business first, I'll send Xiaoli back for you." Li Shangshang climbed up the pole with ease, his heart filled with joy. Isn't this a great opportunity given by heaven for him to be alone with his goddess?

  "This is the only way it can be." Jee Dong put his phone back in his pocket, glanced at Hyeori who was pouring drinks at the table, and then left the table, exited the bar. Jee Dong thought for a moment, but couldn't shake off the feeling of unease. He had met Lee Sang-soon a few times, but didn't know what kind of person he was. Just as he was about to turn around and go back into the bar to send Hyeori home first, his phone rang again, urging him to hurry up. In the end, with no other choice, he could only make a call to Sung-yoon Lee.

  ……

  Muzi Qiu sat on the sofa, the TV in front of him continuously playing a hilarious variety show, but his mind was not on the TV. His eyes would lift every few seconds to glance at the clock on the wall. Today, Li Xiaoli didn't tell him where she went, although it had been like this for years, Muzi Qiu still couldn't help but worry.

  Until nine o'clock, Muzi Qiu suddenly felt that his heart was about to explode, and the suspended heart suddenly became chaotic. He took out his mobile phone and was about to call Li Xue Li when the phone rang by itself. "Hello, Yu Li sister?"

  "Zi Qiu, I just got a call from Ji Dong Ge, your sister is drinking at XX bar, I'm busy and can't go, Zhen Er Jie has been grounded at home... Zhu Xian Jie is recording a radio show... Hello? Zi Qiu? Zi Qiu? I've already contacted Dong Jian Ge... you, go downstairs to pick them up..."

  Muzi Qiu didn't wait for Youli to finish speaking, and had already run out of the door. The elevator happened to be on this floor, so Muzi Qiu quickly went downstairs, got into a taxi, and headed towards XX Bar...

  "Sorry, minors are not allowed in!" When Mu Zi Qiu arrived at the entrance of the bar, he was stopped by the bouncer. He himself was only fourteen years old, and with his small stature, it was no wonder that he looked like a minor.

  "My sister is inside! I'm looking for my sister!"

  "Sorry, minors are not allowed inside!"

  "You..." Mu Zi Qiu wanted to rush in, but how could her small body possibly rush past the physically strong bartender.

  "Ah! Youngster, long time no see!" Just as the two were still entangled, a tall figure walked up from behind and without saying a word, tightly hugged the wine server, blocking him from Muzi Qiu.

  "Hey Dong Jian, long time no see! What brings you out tonight?"

  "A friend called me over." Li Dongjian seemed oblivious to Mu Zi Qiu's presence and continued chatting with the bartender.

  How could Muzi Qiu not know Lee Dong-geon? Among Li Xue-li's good friends, he was the most familiar with Lee Dong-geon! Seeing Lee Dong-geon pulling a wine preserver, Muzi Qiu immediately lowered his body to cover his face and quietly slipped into the bar...
