Chapter 24

When Li Yuhao said those words, Bu Su Yan was so angry, especially when Li Yuhao was filming the scene of eating instant noodles. The whole room was filled with the smell of spicy cabbage ramen, making Bu Su Yan, who had only eaten a little breakfast and was already hungry, unable to resist swallowing her saliva. At this moment, Li Yuhao actually said he was full, which really made Bu Su Yan furious.

Bu Su Yan, with her nostrils flaring, exclaimed, "Hey!! Li Yuhao, you're really over the top! What do you mean you're full from eating instant noodles? Are you deliberately trying to upset me? Hurry up and change your clothes, we need to go."

Li Yuhao scratched the back of his head and looked at Bu Su Yan in confusion, "Go? Where? I still have to treat you to a meal, right? Do you want to go out to eat?"

Bu Su Yan, not knowing that this 'rented' MV shooting location was actually Li Yuhao's dorm, thought it was someone else's home. "If we don't go out, are we supposed to eat in this house?"

Li Yuhao's eyes widened, thinking, 'Bu Su Yan, are you that ruthless? You just made me pay over 200,000 yesterday, and now you want to go out to eat again?' Li Yuhao said matter-of-factly, "Of course we'll eat at home. Oh... I forgot to tell you, this is my dorm."

"What? This is your dorm?" Bu Su Yan was surprised. Although the room wasn't very large, it was certainly enough for Li Yuhao to live in alone, and the decoration was very warm and cozy, giving it a 'home' feel. It seemed that LOEN was really good to Li Yuhao.

Li Yuhao smiled and nodded, "Of course. Sit wherever you like, I'll go make something to eat. There are drinks and beer in the fridge, help yourself if you want."

Li Yuhao's words shocked Bu Su Yan again, "You... you're going to cook for me? Can you cook?"

Li Yuhao smiled at Bu Su Yan, who was wide-eyed, "Of course. I've been cooking for many years. It might not be as good as the restaurants, but it will definitely fill your stomach. Sit and rest for a while. If you get bored, you can play on the computer on the bed." With that, Li Yuhao nodded at Bu Su Yan and went to cook.

Soon, Bu Su Yan heard the rhythmic chopping sounds from the kitchen. Curious, she went to the kitchen and saw Li Yuhao carefully slicing peppers. Bu Su Yan asked, "Yuhao, what are you planning to make? Boiled pork belly?"

"Yeah, I thought you might be hungry, so I decided to make boiled pork belly. It's the fastest and simplest." Li Yuhao replied, still slicing peppers and smiling.

The pork belly was originally meant for a barbecue that Li Yuhao had planned for the previous night, but since he had gone out for barbecue, he decided to make boiled pork belly instead. Boiled pork belly is convenient and quick, and it doesn't require much effort. You just boil the meat with ginger, scallions, garlic, peppers, and onions, then serve it wrapped in lettuce with kimchi and a vinegar and chili sauce.

"Thank you, Yuhao. You've been treating me to good food these past two days." Bu Su Yan felt a strange emotion as she watched Li Yuhao cook, making her feel very comfortable.

"Hehe, what good food? Alright, go sit down, it'll be ready soon."

Soon, Li Yuhao brought out the boiled pork belly, cut into pieces, and placed it on the table. He also served Bu Su Yan a bowl of rice and a simple seaweed and egg soup.

After setting everything up, Li Yuhao smiled and sat across from Bu Su Yan, "Alright, eat up."

Bu Su Yan, seeing that only her meal was served, asked Li Yuhao, "Aren't you eating?"

Hearing Bu Su Yan's question, Li Yuhao laughed and said, "How can I eat? The two packs of instant noodles earlier already made me so full. I haven't digested them yet, how can I eat again? Eat up, I'm sorry for making you wait so long."

Bu Su Yan laughed at Li Yuhao's words. It was true; he had eaten two large packs of ramen less than an hour ago. Without further ado, Bu Su Yan started eating the boiled pork belly. The taste... as Li Yuhao said, it wasn't as good as the restaurants, but it was enough to fill her stomach. Essentially, it was the sauce that made the difference. The restaurants used specially made sauces, while Li Yuhao used a vinegar and chili sauce with a bit of honey for convenience.

While eating, Bu Su Yan asked, "Yuhao, do you live alone in this dorm?"

"Of course." Li Yuhao smiled and looked at Bu Su Yan with a 'perverted' grin, joking, "What, do you want to move in and live with me?"

As soon as Li Yuhao finished speaking, Bu Su Yan immediately shouted, "Go to hell... you're so shameless and perverted."

Li Yuhao laughed and apologized, "Hahaha... just a joke, just a joke. Don't take it so seriously. By the way, your dorm is shared by six of you, right?"

"Yeah, what about it?" Bu Su Yan nodded in response.

"I was just wondering what a girls' dorm is like. When you have time, can you show me around? Oh, and when can you introduce me to Li Zhiyan?"

Bu Su Yan looked at Li Yuhao warily, "Why do you want me to introduce you to Zhiyan? You're not interested in her, are you?"

Li Yuhao quickly waved his hands in defense, "No, no, I just want to get to know her, not to the point of liking her yet."

Seeing Li Yuhao's hurried defense, Bu Su Yan felt a bit uncomfortable. She pouted and said, "Hmph... don't even dream about it. I won't introduce you to Li Zhiyan, you shameless person. Who knows what you're up to."

"What? What am I up to? Really..."

"Hmph... your expression says it all. You have no good intentions, you shameless person."

"Ugh!! I'm so frustrated. Can't you say something nice? Do you want a beer? I can get you one."

"No, I need to go back to the practice room later."

Li Yuhao nodded and got a beer for himself to relieve his frustration. He thought, "Why does Bu Su Yan always think I have ulterior motives? But... Li Juri is indeed great. Hahaha... we'll meet eventually, no rush, take it slow."

Bu Su Yan, seeing Li Yuhao drinking beer again, asked, "Do you like beer a lot? You even had beer with the barbecue instead of soju."

"Ugh, soju? The name sounds nice, but the taste is as light as water. I'd rather drink beer, it quenches my thirst and has a good flavor."

"Oh, soju is light? What do you usually drink? Just beer?"

"Of course, the real man's drink is 'Erguotou,' but it's not available in Korea."

"Erguotou? What a strange name. Haha..."

"I think the name 'soju' is strange too. Alright, hurry up and eat."

"Are you busy? Why are you rushing me?"

Li Yuhao nodded and then shook his head, "Not really busy, but very tired. I worked until almost six in the morning yesterday and was woken up by the company at nine. It's already past four in the afternoon, and I'm feeling sleepy now."

"Oh? When we left yesterday, you said it would take no more than two hours. Why did it take so long?"

"Yeah, I thought it would take two hours too, but while I was making the final touches, another melody came to my mind. You know, inspiration doesn't come with a warning, it just appears..."

Before Li Yuhao could finish, Bu Su Yan frowned, "Eww~~ I'm eating here. Don't say such disgusting things..."

"Oh, sorry, my choice of words was inappropriate. Anyway, the meaning is the same. When inspiration struck last night, I had to record the melody in my head, which took time."

Hearing Li Yuhao's explanation, Bu Su Yan nodded. After finishing her meal and resting for a while, she saw that Li Yuhao was about to fall asleep. It seemed he was really tired, so she decided to leave. Li Yuhao smiled and said, "Leaving? Alright, I'll see you out."

"No need, look at you, you're nodding off. You've been tired all day, you should rest." Bu Su Yan saw that Li Yuhao was really sleepy and smiled, declining his offer.

"Okay, I won't see you out. I'm really sleepy. Be careful, and come over when you have time." After Bu Su Yan left, Li Yuhao fell asleep on the bed.

Li Yuhao slept until around 2 AM, when he was woken up by hunger. He cooked another pack of instant noodles, ate, and went back to sleep. The next day...

Actually, while Li Yuhao was sleeping, LOEN had already published the MV for "Like Being Shot" on the company's homepage and announced that Li Yuhao had joined LOEN. He would debut with his new album in March.

The audio for "Like Being Shot" was also released on LOEN's 'MelOn' music website. This was Li Yuhao's first audio release, and the song, with the popularity accumulated from the previous video, was poised to soar. The MV featured Li Yuhao's face, which was much clearer than in the video, making him look even more handsome.

Combined with his detailed singing and the opening monologue, "I can't remember, but I know... she said sorry to me," and the closing monologue, "At nine o'clock, I woke up on time, brushed my teeth, and took a shower. Nothing has changed. That's what a breakup is like..."
