Chapter 339 Where did you go this afternoon?
"Oppa, help!"

"Hola, what's wrong with you?"

Huang Xu was startled when he saw Goo Hara's expression as if she was about to cry, and then he looked at her worriedly.

"Where are you now? What happened?"

"Don't worry, tell me the problem you encountered."

"No, I'll ask my uncle to go over there."

"Um, Oppa, there's no need to trouble uncle."

Huang Xu was so anxious that he was about to hang up the phone and notify his uncle to come over.

Goo Hara also quickly stopped Huang Xu from thinking this.

"I just need your help with something."

"What's the matter? What makes you so anxious?"

When Huang Xu saw Goo Hara's expression, he knew that the problem was not too serious, so he calmed down.

But he was still very curious about what had happened that made Goo Hara almost cry.

But when he saw the problems Goo Hara encountered, he was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"what?"

"You want me to teach you how to make chicken soup?"

"Yeah, I saw you doing it very easily before, why is it so difficult when I do it?"

"Why did you think of making chicken soup? Didn't you say I would make it for you when I got back?"

Looking at the embarrassing expression on Goo Hara's face as she was caught, Huang Xu seemed very happy and curious at the same time.

He had thought about teaching Goo Hara how to cook before, but she had never been willing to do so and didn't really want to learn.

Of course, she didn't mean to be lazy or anything.

According to her, she wanted to eat Huang Xu's meals for the rest of her life, so she was unwilling to learn how to cook.

And she would also help Huang Xu when he cooked.

Goo Hara felt a little embarrassed when she saw Huang Xu's curiosity, and then she started to explain.

"It's Jieun. In the afternoon, I said I would make chicken soup for her, and then..."

“And then you can’t do it?”

"Uh-huh, why is it so hard?"

Goo Hara's big eyes were now full of confusion.

"When I watched Oppa make it before, it seemed very simple, but why doesn't it taste the same when I make it?"

"It's okay. Tell me first what you did. I'll see if I can help you."

"Well, I just did it the same way Oppa used to do it."

As Goo Hara spoke, she turned the camera of her phone to the stove next to her and the pot of chicken soup of a strange color.

Looking at this pot of chicken soup, Huang Xu became even more curious.

"Hola, is this the chicken soup you made?"

"Ah."

"Why is it this color? What seasoning did you put in it?"

"I didn't add anything, just the seasonings you usually use."

"Okay, I think I know why."

After listening to Goo Hara's description, he now knew where the problem lay.

There are quite a lot of kinds of seasonings in the kitchen of his Longshan Apartment. Adding up all the big and small ones, there must be at least seventy or eighty kinds.

There is no way. After his rebirth, his only hobbies are beautiful scenery, delicious food and beautiful women.

There is no shortage of beautiful women now. With Sunny and Goo Hara around, it’s impossible for me to go out and look for one.

So when he has nothing to do, he stays at home and studies how to make various delicious foods every day.

Then slowly, without realizing it, I had many different seasonings from all over the world at home.

Because there are too many seasonings, Huang Xu needs to think about it and distinguish them carefully before he can recognize them when cooking.

For someone like Goo Hara who doesn't cook much and has only watched cooking, it wouldn't be strange for her to mistake the seasoning.

And most importantly, since she wanted to make mushroom chicken soup, she couldn't use so many seasonings.

Even the chicken soup we drank in Chuncheng, because the mushrooms and chicken were fresh, when stewing, we only needed to add some ginger slices and water to stew it to produce a very delicious taste.

Adding too many seasonings may affect the taste of the chicken soup.

After understanding the problem, Huang Xu began to teach Goo Hara step by step how to perform various operations through video.

Of course, while directing, he was also chatting with Goo Hara about daily life and the interesting things that happened to them.

And the smile on Goo Hara's face never stopped.

It wasn't until she heard Lee Ji-eun's voice in the room that she reacted.

"Oppa, Jieun has finished her bath. I'll hang up now."

"I want to show Jieun that I can cook, too."

"Yeah, go ahead, don't play too late after dinner."

"Well, you are Oppa too, you should get some rest as well."

Goo Hara also smiled and waved at Huang Xu, then made a heart shape to Huang Xu.

"Love you, Oppa."

"Mu."

After saying that, she blew a kiss to Huang Xu and then hung up the phone in a hurry.

At this time, Lee Ji-eun also walked to the kitchen door.

“It smells so good, Jieun. I didn’t expect you can actually cook.”

Smelling the rich fragrance in the kitchen, Lee Ji-eun also seemed very surprised.

She didn't expect that her good friend could actually cook, and the food tasted so delicious.

So after she entered the kitchen, she didn't notice Goo Hara's panic when she put away her phone, but went straight to the stove and looked at the chicken soup boiling in the pot.

Look at the white chicken and some unknown mushrooms rolling up and down in the light brown soup.

Looking at the golden fat next to it and smelling the rich aroma, it can be said that the appearance of this pot of chicken soup is quite good.

After checking the condition of the chicken soup, Lee Ji-eun nodded with satisfaction.

With this pot of chicken soup, plus the dishes Huang Xu froze in the refrigerator, we will have a feast tonight.

Then he turned around and looked at Goo Hara with admiration and surprise.

"I really didn't expect that your pot of chicken soup looks really good!"

"That's right, I said I could cook."

Goo Hara looked at Lee Ji-eun with her head held high and her expression showing great pride.

However, beneath her proud appearance, her eyes were not as firm as imagined, and could even be said to be flickering.

His body involuntarily blocked the trash can behind him, and he spoke directly to Lee Ji-eun.

"You go out and wait first. Dinner will be served soon."

"It's okay, I'll help you with something."

Lee Ji-eun looked at Goo Hara without any doubts, but instead asked for help.

"This way we can have dinner earlier."

"Oh no, I can do it myself."

Seeing Li Zhien trying to help, Goo Hara suddenly became anxious. After decisively refusing, she pushed Li Zhien out of the kitchen and said, "Just wait in the living room obediently."

"If it doesn't work, just take the key and go downstairs to wait for Truth and Crystal."

"They should be here soon."

"That's fine."

Although she was very curious as to why her friend's attitude was so strange, Lee Ji-eun did not think too much about it. She went to the door, took out the key, and went downstairs to wait for Choi Jin-ri and Krystal Jung.

What she didn't know was that after she left, Goo Hara patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he hurried back to the kitchen and started cleaning the kitchen trash can.

There is the chicken soup that she just failed to make.

She didn't want this to be discovered by Lee Ji-eun, otherwise, the personality she had just established might collapse.

On the other side, Lee Ji-eun had just walked downstairs and had not waited for two minutes when she saw Choi Jin-ri and Krystal Jung appear in her sight.

"Shirley, Crystal, here."

"Jieun-unnie."

After seeing Lee Ji-eun downstairs, Choi Jin-ri and the other person quickened their pace and came to her side.

After a brief greeting, the three of them went straight to the elevator without staying for long.

As three of them are well-known idols in Korea, many people know them.

Although this is an upscale neighborhood, if you stay downstairs, you might run into their fans.

Therefore, apart from activities, they generally do not stay in public places for too long.

After getting in the elevator, Choi Jin-ri looked at Lee Ji-eun with some curiosity.

"Ouni, why are you waiting downstairs?"

"Hola asked me to come down to pick you up, worried that you wouldn't be able to find the place and come up."

"Can't find the place and can't come up?"

After hearing what Lee Ji-eun said, Choi Jin-ri and Krystal Jung frowned.

How is it possible that they can't find the place and go up?
Krystal Jung, who has been here the least, has been here two or three times. Although she can't say that she is familiar with the place, she is not unfamiliar with it.

And Choi Jin-ri is even more impossible.

She has come here countless times. Not only does she have the key here, she also has her own room.

It can be said that this place is just like her home, how could she not find the place?
However, before the two of them could express their doubts, the elevator had already arrived at the twelfth floor where the apartment was located.

The two of them could only keep this doubt in their hearts.

But Lee Ji-eun did not notice these. Instead, she happily took out the key and spoke to the two of them while opening the door.

"You don't know, Hola's cooking skills have improved a lot now."

"The chicken soup she made was so delicious."

"Hola? Cooking? Chicken soup?"

Lee Ji-eun's words almost made Choi Jin-ri and the other person's brains crash.

When did Goo Hara learn to cook?

But they knew that when Huang Xu said he wanted to teach her how to cook, she was very reluctant.

How come my cooking skills have suddenly improved?

However, considering that they had drunk the chicken soup stewed by Huang Xu before, they were just a little confused.

Maybe without them knowing, Goo Hara learned a few tricks from Huang Xu.

However, IU did not notice the puzzled expressions of the two people behind her.

After she opened the door, she saw Goo Hara walking out of the kitchen carrying a bag of garbage.

"Hola, is this garbage? Why didn't you let me take it down with me when I went downstairs just now?"

"Um, I just forgot."

When Goo Hara saw the three people at the door, especially Lee Ji-eun, she suddenly became a little flustered and a little guilty.

After casually explaining, he asked Choi Jin-ri and the other person.

"How come you guys are here so quickly?"

"Hey, as soon as we finished our work, we asked for leave and came here."

"Okay, then wash your hands and come over to help. We can have dinner soon."

"it is good."

Choi Jin-ri and the other girl did not suspect anything. After hearing what Goo Hara said, they simply put down the small bags they were carrying, washed their hands, and prepared to start helping.

Lee Ji-eun next to her looked at Goo Hara with a hint of resentment.

"Just now I said I wanted to help, but you disagreed. Now that they are here, you ask them to help. What do you mean by this?"

Although she wanted to complain about Goo Hara's discriminatory treatment, she kept silent as she smelled the fragrance that filled the entire room.

Instead, he followed Choi Jin-ri and the other person, ready to help.

At the same time, on the other side, Huang Xu, who was far away in the southwest of China, was staring at his phone in a daze.

"what's the situation?"

"Why haven't you come yet?"

"And there's not even a single piece of information?"

"Didn't they come back a long time ago? Did they get together again and have no time to check their phones?"

It’s no wonder that Huang Xu had such thoughts. It’s just that Park Hyomin’s reaction was a little abnormal.

The first few times he sent a message, Park Hyomin would reply within a few minutes.

He even changed his clothes and went straight to the door.

This time, half an hour had passed since he sent the message, but not only did Park Hyomin not show up, she didn't even send a single message.

This made Huang Xu feel abnormal.

I even wondered if Park Hyomin and the others had encountered something.

Although this is China, it is the southwest region after all. The safety here is definitely not as good as that in the mainland and those big cities.

Immediately, I wanted to take out my cell phone and ask the staff to see if everyone had returned and whether they had encountered any problems.

However, just as he found the phone number of the security officer and was about to call it, he heard a knock on the door.

"Boom boom boom!"

"???"

He opened the door with doubts and found that it was Park Hyomin, the person he was worried about, who appeared at the door.

Huang Xu didn't bother to ask too many questions and directly pulled her into the room.

"What happened to you just now? Why didn't you reply to the message for so long?"

"Ah? Didn't I reply to your message?"

Park Hyomin widened her eyes and looked at Huang Xu in disbelief.

Then he took out his cell phone, checked it, and found that he had indeed not replied to Huang Xu, so he quickly said to Huang Xu.

"Um, sorry, I just forgot."

"Okay, as long as you're okay."

Looking at Park Hyomin's cute expression, Huang Xu was not angry. Instead, he rubbed her hair and then pulled her to sit down.

"By the way, where did you go this afternoon?"
