"Someone come in to get some food," Li Chong called out.
"Okay, I'm coming!" YoonA, who had already been tempted by the aroma and was about to rush into the kitchen, was the first to run in upon hearing Li Chong's words.
"Was she probably starved to death in her previous life? Why does she run so fast at the mention of food?" Sulli looked at YoonA's sprint with dissatisfaction.
"Hehe, you're clearly just jealous. How much less have you eaten compared to her? And you're still a young lady…." Hyoyeon said without holding back.
"Hey, I was just hungry, okay…" Sulli's face turned a bit red. She and YoonA were both big eaters and often consumed as much food as the rest of the Girls' Generation members combined without feeling full…
Just as they were bickering, Li Chong and YooRi each carried a large basin filled with fragrant egg noodle soup, while YoonA followed behind with a stack of large bowls. As soon as everyone saw the food, they stopped arguing and gathered around. "Oppa Li Chong, did you make this?" Jung Soo-yeon looked at the noodles in the basin.
"Just make do with it. This is all we have to make. We also have sausages and kimchi. YoonA, take the bowls, everyone can start eating…." Li Chong, seeing the hungry looks, quickly placed the basin on the table and stepped out of the crowd. Everyone didn't hesitate, it was almost 8 o'clock, and they were all starving. Each person picked a large bowl of noodles. It was still okay, and someone remembered that Li Chong was a guest. Suhwan helped Li Chong serve a bowl of noodles, "Uncle, here you go."
"You're still a good girl, Suhwan, knowing how to take care of others. Look at this group of sisters who haven't eaten, they look like they came from an African refugee camp." Li Chong looked at the chaotic scene and sighed.
"Um, Uncle, we haven't eaten anything since this morning, waiting for you all this time. You're still saying we…." YoonA complained.
"Really, you have the nerve to say that. Your vegetable soup didn't even have broth left. How can you blame me? Hurry up and eat, or Sulli will eat it all…." Li Chong quickly countered, not wanting to take the blame.
"Ah, Choi Big Stomach, leave some for me!" YoonA immediately started fighting with Sulli for the noodles.
After a chaotic scene, everyone finally finished eating. Li Chong watched in amazement, over ten packs of ramen, these kids must eat a lot. S&M Entertainment must spend a lot on food. If Girls' Generation doesn't make money, they might eat S&M Entertainment into bankruptcy.
"Um, may I ask, does the cost of food take up a large part of your expenses?" Li Chong thought it should be.
"Yes, Uncle, how did you know? Our manager says we spend more on food than Super Junior…." Pannyeo blurted out Li Chong's question.
Everyone was speechless. This silly girl, how could she say that? Isn't it obvious that they are all big eaters….
"Um…." Li Chong felt his IQ would drop if he stayed here too long.
"Tell me, what did you invite me here for?" Li Chong thought he had eaten and should not stay too long. He wanted to see what these girls were up to.
"Um, it's like this, Uncle. We've been shooting an MV these past few days, and the director of the MV highly recommends you. We watched some of your works, and they are really good, and many have won awards. We all feel that since we've met, we should get closer to you and hope to have the opportunity to work with you in the future." Taeyeon spoke on behalf of everyone.
"Is that it?" Li Chong looked at the group of girls around him.
"Um, um, um…." A bunch of heads nodded….
"Could you have told me earlier? I've been bored to death these past few days. If you had told me earlier, I would have helped you shoot it when I had time…." Li Chong was a bit depressed, wondering why he always missed out on things… Actually, he was out of money and wanted to make some extra cash….
"Ah… Uncle, aren't you shooting a movie now?" YooRi was a bit confused why Li Chong agreed so easily.
"What's wrong with shooting a movie? Shooting MVs is my specialty. Besides, shooting MVs makes money quickly. I once made 200 million won from a single album." Li Chong said proudly.
"We didn't know before, and Uncle's price is too high, right?" Jung Soo-yeon explained, taking the opportunity to complain about Li Chong's price.
"Don't you know that the more famous you are, the more expensive you get? And I'm known for being worth the price. Does your company have any other MVs to shoot? I can give you a discount…." Li Chong thought it would be nice to make some extra cash before the New Year.
"No, recently, besides our single, the rest is just promotion. It's probably not until April…."
"I won't have time in March, and April? Forget it. Is there anything else? If not, I'll leave. It's 8:30, it's not good for a man to stay here at night…." Li Chong thought he should leave this place of trouble.
Everyone was just trying to build a good relationship with Li Chong. Seeing the situation today, the relationship should be good, "Right, Uncle, our new single is going to be on the charts, can you come and see?" YoonA suddenly remembered something, and everyone looked at him with hopeful expressions. Last time, Li Chong's outfit stole the show….
"Sure, I'll see. My movie needs promotion, so I'll see if I have time…." Li Chong didn't want to make a definite promise, considering how hard these girls work.
"Okay, we'll send you a text message when the time comes." Li Chong left his phone number, and now everyone knew his number. They saw Li Chong into the elevator and watched the numbers decrease, all feeling relieved.
"Will Uncle Li Chong be angry with us for treating him like this?" Pannyeo asked weakly.
"He won't be. We just invited him for a meal he couldn't finish," Hyoyeon comforted her.
Everyone was discussing Li Chong, but YooRi stood there in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking….
"What's wrong, YooRi? Thinking so fast? Don't tell me you like Uncle?" Sulli saw YooRi in a daze and joked.
"Ah, no, no, I'm thinking about something else. We seem to have no food left. After the MV is released tomorrow, we won't have time to buy food…." YooRi was satisfied with her quick thinking.
"Ah, right, we ate all the ramen today, and we wasted so much food. What will we do in a few days?" Sulli's attention immediately turned to food.
"Let's go buy some. YooRi's yams and Suhwan's sweet potatoes are almost gone." Jung Soo-yeon looked at Taeyeon, who agreed.
After that, they sent a few people to the supermarket to shop. We won't go into that. Li Chong came down from the 9th floor, still thinking about when he would go up again. At this moment, a phone call came in. Li Chong saw it was a rare caller.
"Mr. So Ji-sub, what a rare guest. What can I do for you?" Li Chong said.
