Chapter 210 Return to Seoul and Purchase Gifts
"It's so fragrant!"

After Sunny carefully tasted the grilled beef loin that Huang Xu handed over, her eyes narrowed.

She didn't expect that roasted sirloin would taste like this.

Not only is there almost no fishy smell that should be present in internal organs, the fat wrapped around the outer ring of the kidney has a light milky aroma after being grilled over charcoal fire, and inside is the fresh and tender kidney itself.

As soon as you take a bite, you’ll be satisfied with the aroma of oil and the flavor of the seasoning. It’s surprisingly delicious.

"Yeah, do you like it? If you like it, I'll have a few more."

Looking at Sunny's satisfied expression, Huang Xu was not surprised. Instead, he looked at her with a smile, watching her eat the roasted beef kidneys with big mouthfuls.

There is no way, the taste of this roasted beef loin is really good, and the texture is also very magical. As long as you overcome the psychological factors, you will probably like it.

Jessica Jung, who was sitting next to Sunny, looked at her teammates with surprise, as if she was meeting her for the first time.

Sunny, who was actually eating grilled beef loin, was really a little beyond her expectations.

As a teammate who has lived in the same dormitory with Sunny for several years, she has a certain understanding of Sunny.

Although Sunny usually has a strong taste, I never expected it to be so strong that he could eat roasted kidneys.

In Korea, there are actually many people who like to eat offal, which naturally includes things like beef kidneys.

But these things are the favorites of some middle-aged men.

As a young and beautiful girl, it was natural that she could not accept this kind of food.

But seeing that Sunny seemed to be enjoying the meal, she couldn't help but have an idea.

"Could it be that this thing is really delicious?"

So I asked Sunny with a skeptical attitude.

"Sunny, is this really delicious?"

“It’s delicious. Much better than I imagined.”

When Sunny heard what Jessica Jung said, she thought of Jessica Jung who had never tasted this flavor, so she started to recommend it crazily.

"Xica, you should try it too, it tastes really good."

"Really?"

Jessica Jung looked at the grilled beef loin that had been handed to her, her expression still a little hesitant.

After all, this thing really challenges her limit of acceptance of food. Even if Sunny and Huang Xu looked very happy when they were eating, they were still a little worried in their hearts.

I'm worried that I won't be able to accept the taste of these things.

At this time, Sunny also saw Jessica Jung's expression. Based on her understanding of her, she knew that she was already moved, but just had some concerns.

So they added fuel to the fire again.

"Really Xika, believe me, this is really delicious, there is no other taste at all."

"Really?"

"Well, you believe me."

Seeing that Jessica Jung was moved by her words, Sunny looked at her with sincere eyes, trying to make her believe her.

And Sunny's eye attack did not fail. Jessica Jung was obviously moved by Sunny. Looking at the grilled beef loin in front of her that Sunny had already taken a few bites of, she did not dislike it, but carefully took a small bite at the edge.

As a result, after taking this bite, her eyes lit up.

Because her bite was relatively small, she didn't bite the kidney itself, but only tasted the butter wrapped around the kidney.

This is also the most delicious part of the grilled beef loin. Even many old diners will choose fatter ones when grilling beef loin because it is more fragrant.

After the butter is roasted over charcoal fire, the high temperature forces out some of the fat inside, and then the outside is wrapped with cumin and chili.

It has the aroma of butter and cumin and chili. The mixed aroma bursts out in your mouth, and the taste is very overbearing.

Even Jessica Jung, who doesn't have much desire for food, couldn't help but have her eyes light up.

Seeing this situation, Huang Xu did not ask her whether she wanted to eat or not. He shouted to the barbecue chef while she was looking at him shyly.

"Brother, I want three more beef loins here. I want them to be fatter."

"Okay, brother. I'll bring it to you after it's baked."

With Huang Xu's shout, several people who were eating barbecue nearby turned their attention to the three of them, and also saw the two beauties, Sunny and Jessica Jung.

Although the two had lowered their heads when these people looked at them, so that these people could not see their faces clearly, they naturally did not recognize their identities.

But even so, they can still tell from their figures that both of them are rare beauties.

Of course, even if the two of them didn't lower their heads, the possibility of being recognized here was not very high.

Although the girl group Girls' Generation is a well-known name in Korea, not many people in China know them, and most of them are young students.

Now, those who eat here are mostly adults who already work nearby, so the possibility of knowing them is not great.

Otherwise Huang Xu wouldn't dare to shout like that.

However, even if these people did not know them, when they saw Huang Xu accompanied by these two beauties and ordered a few more grilled kidneys, they naturally smiled their smiles of mutual understanding between men.

There were also a few extroverts who raised their glasses to Huang Xu.

When Huang Xu saw this situation, he naturally stood up and picked up the wine glass, clinked it with a few people in the air, drank it all, and then sat down.

It was not until Huang Xu sat down that Sunny raised her head and kicked Huang Xu's calf viciously.

"Yeah~~"

"Ah, that's annoying. Don't call me. Let me sleep for a while. Call me in a few minutes, okay?"

Sunny was in a daze and felt someone pinching her nose and mouth, making it impossible for her to breathe. She then reluctantly opened her eyes.

But even if she opened her eyes, she closed them again after she saw Huang Xu's face and acted stupidly.

There was no way. After the three of them had eaten barbecue together last night, they returned to the hotel and were dragged around by Huang Xu for a long time. They didn’t fall asleep until the early morning.

Now I feel like I have only slept for a short while, so naturally I want to sleep a little longer.

It was a pity that Huang Xu kept shaking her body, so she opened her eyes reluctantly and saw Huang Xu's face clearly. At the same time, she also remembered today's schedule.

"What time is it?"

"It's already half past five, you should get up."

"Okay~~!"

Sunny looked at Huang Xu, responded sweetly, and then stretched out her hands.

"Want a hug."

"it is good!"

Huang Xu looked at Sunny lovingly as she stretched out her arms. He then took her out of the bed and carried her to the bathroom.

Then he took out his cell phone and prepared to call Jessica Jung in the other room to see if she had gotten up.

As a result, the call was connected as soon as he dialed, which surprised Huang Xu.

Sunny had previously told him about the general situation of her teammates. Among them, what Huang Xu was most impressed by about Jessica Jung was her reputation as someone who had difficulty getting out of bed.

How come the call was connected so quickly? Is he awake already?
"Are you awake? If you are, go wash up quickly because we will be leaving soon."

"Open the door, I'm already at your door."

"what!"

Huang Xu was a little shocked when he heard Jessica Jung say that she had arrived at the door of her room. However, he didn't care about being shocked at this time. He put down his phone and hurried to the door to open it for Jessica Jung.

When he saw Jessica Jung standing at the door and her outfit, his eyes lit up.

Because at this time, Jessica Jung was wearing an orange fur coat, a U-neck white tight T-shirt underneath, tight casual pants, and flat shoes suitable for shopping.

This outfit can be said to highlight the figure, be fashionable, and have a certain ability to keep warm.

With the black sunglasses pinned in her hair, she looks like a typical female star.

However, Huang Xu couldn't help feeling a little worried when he saw her dressed like this.

"Are you sure you're dressed like this? Weren't you frozen enough last night?"

"It's okay, isn't it morning?"

"The mornings here are colder than the nights."

Huang Xu looked at Jessica Jung who didn't care and continued to persuade her.

In fact, what she wore yesterday was similar to what she wore today, so she was so cold after she and Sunny took the photos last night.

They got up so early today because they wanted to experience the morning market culture of Northeast China.

The temperature would be relatively low so early in the morning, so Huang Xu wanted to persuade Jessica Jung to wear something thicker.

It’s a pity that Jessica Jung didn’t buy into Huang Xu’s persuasion. Facing Huang Xu’s earnest persuasion, she only said one sentence in the end.

"It's okay. This is already very thick. And if you feel cold, just hide in the room for a while."

"Okay, as long as you don't get cold for a while."

Seeing Jessica Jung refusing to listen, Huang Xu could only helplessly say that as long as she was happy, that was all that mattered.

After all, she is not an ordinary person, but a professional idol, and a popular idol who pays attention to fashion sense. Her requirements for travel outfits are different from her own.

Of course, it's her.

In fact, many popular idols are not so particular about their clothing and they mainly focus on comfort.

For example, Sunny, in her previous life, except for appearing on the show, the private clothes she showed off were basically casual.

Of course, after being with Huang Xu in this life, her dressing style has changed a lot.

There are a lot more clothes in the wardrobe that are not so exaggerated in design, and you can even say that they are for comfort and have almost no sense of design.

She almost never wore these clothes before. After all, she was an idol and might be photographed by fans or reporters at any time.

Therefore, they pay great attention to their daily dressing.

But now, because of Huang Xu, she no longer cares so much about these things, and instead pays more attention to comfort.

Therefore, compared with Jessica Jung's exquisite outfit, Sunny, who went out half an hour later, was just wearing a complete set of black sportswear and a baseball cap.

It can be said that the two people's current outfits are at two extremes, one is casual and sporty, and the other is fashionable and sophisticated. They don't look like members of the same team at all.

Huang Xu looked at the two people walking hand in hand, especially Sunny's outfit, and felt somewhat satisfied. After all, for him, nothing exquisite and beautiful could compare to living comfortably.

Therefore, Huang Xu likes Sunny even more now.

After leaving the hotel, the three of them took a taxi to the famous Hongzhuan Morning Market, ready to experience the morning market in Northeast China.

When the three of them arrived here, it was not yet seven o'clock and the sky was just beginning to brighten.

But even so early, there are already a lot of people in the market.

Almost all the people in the market are residents living nearby. They get up early and come here just to buy some cheap and fresh ingredients.

Of course, you can also buy a variety of breakfast here.

It is precisely because of this that Huang Xu and the other two who entered the market became very conspicuous at this time.

Because there are relatively few young people here, and Jessica Jung is dressed so brightly and beautifully, she naturally attracts a lot of attention.

After all, this is not a few years later. It is only 2013 now, and the mobile Internet is just getting started.

And most importantly, various short videos and self-media bloggers have not yet started.

Therefore, the morning market here has not been promoted through the Internet and known to outsiders, and not many people come here to travel.

However, Huang Xu and the other two looked a little out of place here. They looked like outsiders at first glance, but no one came forward to ask them anything.

Instead, when he saw what Sunny and Jessica Jung were interested in, he introduced it more enthusiastically. When they passed by the fried cake stall, the big brother from Northeast China even wanted the two of them to take one and try it directly.

Unfortunately, Sunny and Jessica Jung did not notice their kindness.

First of all, these two people can’t understand Chinese now.

Although Sunny has been with Huang Xu for a long time, she also learns Chinese on weekdays.

But she is short on time.

There is not much time for rest to begin with, and I also need to exercise and play games during the rest time, so naturally I don’t have much time to learn Chinese.

But the good thing is that even if I don’t understand, I can still feel the stall owner’s kindness from his actions.

So before the three of them had walked far, Huang Xu's hands were already filled with large and small bags of delicious food.

There is no way. They have already let you taste it, so how can you not buy it?

What's more, the food tastes really good, so there is no way to refuse it.

However, after walking for more than ten minutes and buying things from several stores, Jessica Jung began to feel a little cold.

Although she only wore this much clothing in the winter when she was in Korea, although Korea is relatively cold, most indoor places have heating.

Therefore, for people living in Seoul, it is not a problem even if they wear thin clothes.

Just reduce the time you spend outdoors.

But it’s different here. Although there is heating here, it’s also warm indoors.

But they were traveling here to have fun, especially last night and today's morning market, and they spent most of their time outdoors.

After staying outdoors for a long time, her outfit naturally couldn't hold up.

Huang Xu also saw her embarrassment, so when he saw a stall with a shed not far ahead, he pulled the two of them in.

After ordering three bowls of mutton soup, they took out the breakfast they had just bought and started to taste them one by one with the hot mutton soup.

Fortunately, although the temperature is low now, they have been out for a relatively short time, so many foods are still kept warm.

So the three of them ate the special fried cakes, fried dough sticks, buns with various fillings, beef patties and other breakfasts, and they were quite happy for a while.

It was from this breakfast that Huang Xu started a three-day shopping and eating trip with Sunny and Jessica Jung, taking them to experience Harbin in spring.

Of course, the focus of this trip is not where to go for fun, but where to eat and what to eat.

Although Sunny and Jessica Jung cannot be said to be well-traveled, they have been to quite a few places, even many major cities in Europe and the United States.

Combined with Huang Xu's personal preferences, this trip for three people was basically focused on experiencing various delicacies.

Therefore, Huang Xu took the two of them to experience the Northeastern cuisine. They tried all the famous Northeastern dishes, such as goose stewed in an iron pot, chicken stewed with mushrooms, and sweet and sour pork.

Huang Xu even did not miss out on many locals' favorite dishes such as stewed toad, dried tofu, and stewed eggplant. He took the two of them to enjoy them all, thus ending the trip.

It’s not that they are tired of playing here, but because Sunny and Jessica Jung’s break time is over.

Especially Jessica Jung, because of her willful behavior some time ago, she now needs to go back and start paying off her debts.

Actually, there would be no problem if Sunny didn't go back.

After all, what was waiting for her was just a small event, so there would be no problem if she asked her teammates to replace her.

However, faced with Huang Xu's proposal, Sunny was very determined.

"No, I want to go back. I've only been here for a few days and I've already gained five pounds. Do you know how serious it is to gain five pounds?"

"No, I don't feel any changes."

Huang Xu looked at Sunny who was already a little crazy, and began to comfort her.

Unfortunately, his comfort didn't have any effect, and he was directly met with a cold eye from Sunny.

"Don't I know you? You always say I'm too skinny and don't feel good, and you want me to gain some weight."

"But once you have some flesh on your body, you will look fat on camera."

"that's true!"

Huang Xu felt a little emotional after hearing this.

Many people, especially fans, start criticizing idols like these when they see them looking a little fat in front of the camera.

In fact, they don’t know that the idols who look a little fat in front of the camera are actually not fat.

Even among normal people, they are relatively thin.

Those who appear very thin in the camera may look like skin and bones in real life.

Take Goo Hara for example.

She is 1.63 meters tall but weighs less than 80 kilograms. Is this something a normal person can imagine?
And in order to maintain her ant waist, she basically never had a full meal.

This is also the reason why Huang Xu always wanted her to eat more after he met her.

This is also the reason why he must find a way to install some fitness equipment in the apartment.

All this is for their health.

It’s a pity that their main job now is still idols, and they still need to maintain their figure, so Huang Xumian can only compromise.

However, on the way to send her and Jessica Jung to the airport, he kept reminding her to pay attention to her diet, exercise, and stay healthy.

All I could hear was Jessica Jung rolling her eyes.

During these few days, she witnessed Huang Xu and Sunny's various affectionate behaviors with her own eyes, and had her fill of love dog food all at once.

After completing the check-in and entering the airport, she looked at Sunny's happy smile and reluctant expression, and she couldn't help herself any longer.

"That's enough. He will be back in two days. Don't make it like a life-and-death separation."

"Oh, I'm a little too excited!"

Sunny heard what Jessica said and came out of her separation mood. Then she said to Jessica:
"Are you envious? If so, go find one too."

"I"

Just when Huang Xu sent Sunny and Jessica Jung away and started to deal with company affairs, he arrived at a place more than 9,000 kilometers away from China.

Several members of the Function Group finally finished the last day of filming of the team variety show and returned to the hotel.

Afterwards, they returned to their rooms, prepared to have a good rest, and then prepared to take the flight back to Korea tomorrow to start working on the album.

But after returning to the room, Song Qian saw Cui Zhenli, who had just left, appeared in front of her again.

"Unnie, can I go back later tomorrow?"

"Go back later?"

Song Qian looked at Cui Zhenli with some surprise, and her expression revealed some surprise.

She didn't know what happened to Choi Jin-ri that required her to separate from the team and go back.

And they have been here recording for several days, and I haven't heard that she has any friends here, so what happened that made her come back late?

Regardless of whether she is the captain of the team or the eldest sister of several people, she needs to ask about specific matters.

In response to Song Qian's question, Cui Zhenli obviously didn't want to explain, but directly said to Song Qian:
"Ouni, don't ask me anymore. I won't take up much time. I'll be back as soon as I'm done."

"No Shirley."

Song Qian rejected Cui Zhenli's request very straightforwardly.

As the captain and eldest sister, she naturally needs to be responsible for Choi Jin-ri, the youngest member who is only 18 years old and not yet an adult according to the Korean algorithm.

But Cui Zhenli looked at Song Qian's straightforward refusal and continued to beg her.

"Ouni, V's mom, I really have something to do. I'll be back when I'm done. It won't take up too much time."

"No."

Although Song Qian still flatly rejected Cui Zhenli's request to go home late this time, she did not say it firmly.

"You should at least let me know what's going on with you staying here, otherwise I won't be at ease."

"I wanted to buy some gifts, so I..."

"Buying a gift?"

Song Qian's expression was even more confused at this moment. She obviously didn't expect that Cui Zhenli wanted to stay just to buy gifts.

You know, during the recording period, they also went to some gift shops and bought a lot of local specialties.

Why is she buying gifts now?

Choi Jin-ri didn't know if it was because she already knew that if she didn't explain it clearly to the captain, she would not be able to stay.

Or maybe it was some other reason, so he just nodded at Song Qian.

"Yes, I want to go."
