Chapter 29

Starting tomorrow, I will be traveling to another city to attend a classmate's wedding and won't be back until the 28th.

I have never had the habit of stockpiling drafts.

So starting from tomorrow, I can only write on my phone, and updates will be made through my phone.

I will guarantee at least one update per day, but the update time will be irregular. If there is no second update, I will let you know. Please bear with me!

The following is the main text:

Once upon a time, Li Chong would often be blinded by a pair of small hands; once upon a time, Li Chong would often be kicked in the buttocks by a pair of small feet; once upon a time, Li Chong would often see a girl standing quietly until he approached, then she would smile sweetly... In a daze, Li Chong felt something stir in his heart...

"Hey, Uncle, what's wrong? Why are you so stunned?" Kwon Yu-ri looked at the cool uncle standing there. It turned out that after the Girls' Generation's CB stage today, they had participated in two more events, not finishing until around 11 PM. Starting from tomorrow, they would begin a two-week nationwide album promotion, and Kwon Yu-ri's yam was all gone. She had planned to prepare more yam juice for herself.

So Kwon Yu-ri got off the car near a large supermarket and went to buy a bag of yam and some other daily necessities. As she was about to reach her apartment complex, she saw a disheveled figure run out of a small supermarket. Kwon Yu-ri took a closer look and realized it was Uncle Li Chong. She couldn't help but laugh when she saw the small supermarket owner flirting with Li Chong.

Kwon Yu-ri was wearing a white down jacket, boots, and tights, and she was jumping a bit from the cold. Li Chong shook his head and smiled self-deprecatingly, feeling a bit sentimental...

"Nothing, why are you still in your stage outfit?" Li Chong asked, looking at Kwon Yu-ri in her short tights.

"Ah, starting today, we will be promoting the album nationwide. I got off the car to buy some nutritional supplements," Kwon Yu-ri explained.

"Nutritional supplements?" Li Chong walked over and took the things from Kwon Yu-ri's hands, looking at them. "Yam?" Li Chong looked up at Kwon Yu-ri.

"Yep, I really like yam juice. It's nutritious and tasty..." Kwon Yu-ri rubbed her thighs, which were a bit stiff from the cold.

"Alright, it's so cold, let's go. I remember you said you live nearby. I'll take you back. Let's hurry," Li Chong picked up the two bags and followed Kwon Yu-ri.

On the way, Kwon Yu-ri talked a lot. Li Chong's look today was really stunning, and Kwon Yu-ri said it had impressed all her sisters. She also mentioned that Sooyoung had asked her if she knew Li Chong and had said many good things about him. In short, they all had a good impression of Li Chong.

It was then that Kwon Yu-ri realized why Li Chong spoke so casually about Lee Hyori—they were really close.

When they reached the apartment entrance, Kwon Yu-ri turned to Li Chong and said, "Uncle Li, thank you. I'm here. When we have the chance, I'll invite you to our place, but I need to ask my sisters first."

"Um..." Li Chong looked at the building entrance and was pretty sure his neighbor was the Girls' Generation.

"Yu-ri, do you mind if I call you that?" Li Chong felt a bit awkward.

"Uncle, it's fine. What's wrong?" Kwon Yu-ri was too trusting of Li Chong, even in the middle of the night, a man and a woman alone...

"Um, I also live in this building," Li Chong said.

"Ah!!! What?" Kwon Yu-ri was startled. This was too coincidental.

"Let's go into the elevator first, we can talk later," Li Chong, carrying the bags, got into the elevator first. Kwon Yu-ri was a bit scared. It was already a coincidence to run into him outside at night, and now they were living in the same building... Would they even get off the elevator together? In the elevator, Kwon Yu-ri kept her distance from Li Chong...

The 9th floor arrived quickly, and Li Chong got off the elevator first. Kwon Yu-ri hesitated for a moment and got off just before the doors closed.

"Uncle, how did you know I live here?" Kwon Yu-ri's voice was trembling.

"Um... Do you believe me if I say I live here?" Li Chong laughed, seeing Kwon Yu-ri shivering.

Kwon Yu-ri had been paying close attention to Li Chong's movements and had already dialed YoonA's number to get the door opened. Her dorm was right in front of her; as long as she could get inside, she would be safe.

Kwon Yu-ri was very nervous. Li Chong put down the two bags and reached into his pocket to take something out. Kwon Yu-ri, trembling with tension, said loudly, "What are you doing?"

Li Chong looked at the little girl, speechless. She was usually so smart, but today she seemed a bit dazed.

"I'm taking out my key to open the door. How else can I prove I live next door?" Li Chong took out his key and opened the door. Then he looked at Kwon Yu-ri, "Do you want to come in for a bit? So you don't have to be so suspicious."

"Ah!!!" Kwon Yu-ri was relieved but felt a bit embarrassed.

"Alright, it seems that even if I look handsome, I'm still a bad guy. I'm more comfortable being the same old me," Li Chong said self-deprecatingly.

"It's already 1 AM, aren't you going to go in and rest? Do you really want me to take you home?" Li Chong emphasized the word "take."

"Ah, ah, Uncle Li, I'm really sorry, I really didn't know you lived next door... I..." Kwon Yu-ri bowed deeply. Misunderstanding someone can hurt their pride.

By this time, Li Chong had already entered the apartment. "It's fine, I'm used to being treated like a bad guy," Li Chong took off his suit and hung it on the coat rack. Kwon Yu-ri stood at the door, unsure whether to go in or not.

Li Chong came out, "It's really fine. I'm your first fan, right? It's an honor to live so close to my idol."

Kwon Yu-ri felt she had overreacted, but it was late at night, and she was a young girl... She felt a bit wronged.

Seeing the little girl's pained expression at the door, Li Chong was really helpless.

"Um, I'm really not angry. Your reaction is normal. Anyone would have reacted the same way. Don't feel so guilty. You didn't do anything to me, right?" Li Chong felt his mouth was dry from talking, but the girl was still so stubborn.

Kwon Yu-ri stood at Li Chong's door, head down, lost in thought.

Li Chong wondered if he was being too kind. He grabbed Kwon Yu-ri's arm, and she was startled but didn't resist. Li Chong led her to her dorm and said, "Alright, go in first. I accept your apology for misunderstanding me as a bad guy, and I accept your offer to make it up to me. But we'll do it when I have time. How about you treat me to a good meal? OK?"

Kwon Yu-ri was quite conflicted. She really liked Li Chong. Having such an interesting and understanding uncle made her day much brighter. Kwon Yu-ri enjoyed the happiness of seeing Li Chong's messages after a long day of events... What if Li Chong ignored her because of this? How would she endure the endless events every day...

Hearing Li Chong's suggestion, Kwon Yu-ri nodded quickly, like a chick pecking at rice.

"Then rest well. You have a busy day tomorrow," Li Chong said, watching Kwon Yu-ri open the door and go in. He turned and entered the apartment. After Li Chong closed the door, Kwon Yu-ri opened hers and looked at Li Chong's apartment door, a bit dazed...

Why did she always feel she would be entangled with this uncle...
