Chapter 177 You Come With Me Too
Half an hour later, inside the apartment that Goo Hara rented.
Goo Hara looked at Choi Jin-ri who was sitting next to her with a blushing face and kept apologizing.
"I'm sorry, Zhenli, for keeping you waiting at the door for so long."
"Humph, I don't know you who forgets friends for the sake of beauty."
Choi Jin-ri showed no intention of accepting Goo Hara's apology.
After all, I saw her working out, so I went to the nearby supermarket to buy things for her out of kindness.
When I came back, I found that she was "exercising" with her boyfriend and she didn't tell me, so I had to wait at the door of the apartment for more than half an hour.
Therefore, the resentment in one's heart cannot be eliminated by just an apology or two.
Goo Hara also knew that what she did with Huang Xu today was a bit too much, so after seeing Choi Jin-ri's expression, she directly promised:
"Then can I give you compensation? Didn't you like the bag I just bought last time? I'll give it to you, and you'll forgive me."
"Which bag?"
When Choi Jin-ri heard Goo Hara's promise, she was immediately moved.
After all, Goo Hara bought that bag when we were shopping together, and she liked it very much.
But because of the thickness of his wallet, he didn't act in time.
When I wanted to buy it two days later, the bag was gone.
Therefore, when faced with Goo Hara's proposal, she couldn't help but be moved.
But when she raised her head and saw Huang Xu who was packing something in the fitness area, and Goo Hara who was standing next to her and exuding the fragrance of flowers, her excitement for the bag disappeared instantly.
So he spoke to Goo Hara in a decisive tone.
"No, I don't want a bag."
"Oh, you weren't just now"
Goo Hara was a little surprised by Choi Jin-ri's change. She was obviously moved just now, so why did she change her mind again?
And not only Goo Hara was surprised, even Huang Xu next to her had already wiped the water stains on the shock-absorbing pad and came to the two of them.
"Truth? If you don't want a bag, then what do you want?"
"Cosmetics? Designer clothes? Or something else?"
"Oppa, I don't want this."
Cui Zhenli looked at Huang Xu coming over to ask her, and the expression on her face suddenly changed, and she looked at Huang Xu cautiously.
When Huang Xu saw her like this, he showed indifference.
"Sure, whatever compensation you want, as long as it's something I can do for you."
"Then Oppa, can you go shopping with me?"
"shop?"
Huang Xu looked at Cui Zhenli in surprise, somewhat confused about what she was thinking at the moment.
Why are we suddenly talking about shopping?
And if I want to go shopping, isn’t Gu Hara here?
However, Huang Xu did not care about these questions, but agreed readily.
"Okay, you decide which day you want to go shopping. Hara and I will accompany you."
"No, Oppa, I want you to go shopping with me alone."
"???"
When Huang Xu heard Cui Zhenli's words, the alarm in his heart was sounded.
What the hell?
Why did she have such an idea?
While he was confused, he also turned his attention to Goo Hara, hoping that his girlfriend would come forward and dissuade Choi Jin-ri from having this idea.
After all, his current identity is Goo Hara's boyfriend. Now that Choi Jin-ri has said such a thing, he must need her help to solve it.
And most importantly, as the boyfriend of Choi Jin-ri’s best friend, it’s not a big deal for me to accompany her shopping, right?
Goo Hara also saw Huang Xu's eyes asking for help at this time, then nodded slightly and gave Huang Xu a reassuring look in return.
After Huang Xu received Goo Hara's signal, his heart suddenly calmed down.
As long as Gu Hara is here, there should be no problem.
What Huang Xu didn't expect was that what Goo Hara said next made him stunned.
"Sure, Zhenli, when you are free, I will let Oppa go shopping with you."
"Ugh?"
"Nani?"
After hearing what Goo Hara said, both Huang Xu and Choi Jinri were stunned.
Huang Xu didn't expect that Goo Hara would actually agree to Choi Jin-ri's request.
Choi Jin-ri also looked very shocked at this time.
When she made this invitation just now, she was actually very nervous and felt it was rather abrupt.
After all, when I proposed this compensation just now, I didn't know what was wrong with me that led me to come up with such an idea.
And after saying it, he felt something was wrong and wanted to take back what he had just said.
At the same time, I didn't think Goo Hara would agree.
Therefore, after listening to Goo Hara's words, he couldn't help but show a look of shock and looked at Goo Hara with some horror.
"Really? Hal?"
"Really."
Gu Hara looked at Choi Jin-ri's shock, and just smiled and nodded to indicate that Choi Jin-ri had not heard wrong, and then said to Huang Xu who was stunned beside her:
"Oppa, since the truth has been brought up, why don't you take some time these days to go shopping with her."
"I"
Huang Xu was about to refuse, but after seeing Goo Hara's eyes, he didn't say the words of refusal in the end. After a short moment of daze, Huang Xu said to Choi Jinri who was feeling uneasy:
"Zhen Li, when are you free? I will go shopping with you."
"That's great, Oppa."
When Cui Zhenli heard Huang Xu's words, her heart was already filled with joy, so her joy was beyond words, and she waved her hands to express her excitement.
But then she came to her senses from her excitement and looked at Huang Xu and Goo Hara carefully, fearing that her behavior would lead to the cancellation of what she had just agreed to.
Goo Hara felt helpless when she saw Choi Jin-ri's happy celebration and her cautiousness afterwards.
"To put it bluntly, he's still a child."
Therefore, he directly said to Choi Jin-ri who was a little nervous:
"Don't worry, you can find time these days, and I will let Oppa drive you."
"Thank you, Ernie."
Hearing what Goo Hara said, Choi Jin-ri was so happy that she couldn't express it in words. She threw herself on Goo Hara and kissed her on the face to express her gratitude.
Huang Xu felt helpless as he looked at Goo Hara and Choi Jinri, who were hugging each other and expressing their sisterly love in their own way.
After all, as the party to the event they promised, I didn't seem to have the opportunity to express my own opinions and suggestions. I could only shake my head helplessly, walk aside tactfully, close the window that I had just opened to ventilate and dissipate the smell, and then return to the 1201 apartment next door.
After a quick rinse to wash away the smell of the battle, I went to the kitchen to prepare today's dinner.
Although I had packed a lot of food from the restaurant, it was basically all meat and no vegetables.
In this family, whether it is Goo Hara or Sunny, or Choi Jin-ri who came to visit, they all have very high requirements for their figure.
In addition to regular exercise and fitness, they also have very high requirements for diet.
And because of Korea's dietary structure of staple food plus staple food, even if they exercise a lot, they still need to rely on low intake to maintain their figure.
For their health, Huang Xu naturally needs to change their diet structure.
In addition to reducing their carbohydrate intake, the proportion of protein and dietary fiber was also increased.
Therefore, even if Huang Xu packed a lot of meat, they still needed a lot of vegetables to meet their body needs.
When Huang Xu looked at the few vegetables in the refrigerator, he still felt very dissatisfied.
He couldn't understand why various vegetables that were very common in China were basically not found in the Korean market.
The vegetables in his refrigerator were basically purchased by him, Sunny, and Goo Hara at a nearby imported supermarket.
Not only are the prices high, there aren’t many varieties, and they’re only those that are easier to store.
That's why Huang Xu wanted to complain and sigh.
What people are complaining about is that in such an advanced and developed country like South Korea, there are so many varieties of vegetables and fruits, and the prices are still very expensive.
What makes me sigh is that my motherland has done a really good job in terms of material supply.
Although many people's income is not very high, they are still quite well-off in terms of basic necessities.
Like my hometown, although people here don’t have high incomes, there is really no shortage of vegetables and fruits.
This is also the reason why Huang Xu felt emotional when looking at the supplies in the refrigerator.
Because here, even if you have money, there are many things you can't buy.
However, Huang Xu just sighed a few times, then looked at the few varieties of vegetables and selected two as ingredients for tonight's dinner.
Then I started cleaning in the kitchen and preparing the food.
What he didn't expect was that just when he started cutting the ingredients, he suddenly saw Choi Jin-ri appear at the kitchen door, shouting to him happily.
"Oppa, I'm here to help you, is there anything I can do for you?"
"Omo, you scared me, but why is Zhenli here? Isn't she with Hal?"
Huang Xu was startled by Choi Jin-ri's sudden voice. When he saw clearly that the person behind him was Choi Jin-ri, Huang Xu suddenly felt a little strange.
Weren't the two of them playing and joking over there just now?
How come you have time to come here?
When Choi Jin-ri heard Huang Xu's question, he just chuckled.
"Oppa, Hara has gone to take a shower. I will be the one to help Oppa prepare dinner today."
"alright."
Huang Xu didn't bother to be polite when he heard this. He pointed directly at the cupboard and said:
"Then please ask our Zhenli to help wash the necessary dishes!"
"Okay Oppa."
Cui Zhenli followed Huang Xu's instructions, took out the dishes from the cabinet and started washing them.
However, when she was washing the dishes, she would still turn her head to look at Huang Xu from time to time.
I watched Huang Xu cut the freshly washed vegetables into the required shapes and then put them into the pot to cook.
The vegetables flew in the air as the iron pan was turned, and bursts of flames would burst out from time to time.
The firelight illuminated Huang Xu's face and his serious eyes, making him look particularly handsome in Choi Jinri's eyes.
It even overlaps directly with some of her childhood memories.
Therefore, her gaze towards Huang Xu gradually became blurred. For a moment, the memories and the scene before her made it difficult for her to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
But just when she was about to fall in, she heard a voice.
"Truth, bring me a plate."
"Okay Oppa."
When Cui Zhenli heard Huang Xu's call, she gradually woke up from her previous memories.
But this time it’s a little different from before.
Whenever she recalled these things in the past, she would feel depressed for a long time and would not be able to recover.
This is also why she likes to go to bars to drink and hang out with people.
However, after waking up from her memories this time, she did not feel depressed. Instead, a faint feeling of warmth flooded her heart.
So after hearing Huang Xu's call, she smiled and brought the plates she had just washed to Huang Xu's side.
"Can you take a look at this plate?"
"Sure, thank you, Truth."
Huang Xu then put the vegetables that had just been fried in the pot directly into the plate, cleaned the pot and started cooking again.
When Choi Jin-ri cooperated with Huang Xu at this time, he seemed to have much more tacit understanding and did not get distracted anymore.
When Goo Hara came out of the shower in Apartment 1202, she was stunned for a moment when she saw Huang Xu and Choi Jinri working in perfect harmony with each other.
Of course, the main reason why she was stunned was because of the happy smile on her best friend's face at that moment.
I have seen this kind of smile on her face before, but not very often. Most of the time, she still had that professional smile on her face.
Therefore, when she saw her best friend smiling so brightly, she was a little averse to disturbing her for a moment.
However, after the two of them finished making dinner and were eating at the table, she still observed Choi Jin-ri's expression from time to time, trying to figure out why she behaved so strangely today.
The first thing is that she actually wanted Huang Xu to accompany her shopping. I really can’t understand why.
First of all, the identities of the two people are, one is her best friend and the other is her boyfriend.
Logically speaking, this combination of identities should avoid suspicion.
So why did Choi Jin-ri come up with the idea of asking Huang Xu to accompany her?
And when she asked her just now, she didn't say anything, which made Goo Hara very depressed.
Another thing was the smile just now. She hadn't seen Choi Jin-ri smile so brightly and so sunny for a long time.
So what is the reason today?
Just when Goo Hara wanted to continue to dig deeper into the reason, Huang Xu said to Goo Hara:
"Hola? Uncle invited me and my girlfriend to his house for dinner today."
"Okay, then what do I need to prepare? Or I can go."
When Goo Hara heard Huang Xu's words, a happy expression immediately appeared on her face, but then she reacted.
Huang Xuming’s girlfriend is Sunny, not himself.
Therefore, the happy expression on his face froze.
Huang Xu also saw her expression at this time, and he reached out and rubbed her head, saying with pity:
"When the time comes, you can go with us!"
