The following is the main text:

"Thank you for taking such good care of me last night, I'll treat you to some Korean barbecue later." Li Chong said. It's not easy to spend all the money he has, with 400,000 Korean won left, they can eat a lot of good things if they go for a normal meal. Of course, if they want to have a big feast, it's impossible. A French or Chinese grand meal would cost several million or even tens of millions, and red wine and spirits are even more expensive.

Quan Yuli put on a down jacket and went out with Li Chong. Since it was the New Year, many small shops were closed. Li Chong directly took a taxi to the Korean barbecue restaurant run by Jiang Hudong.

Jiang Hudong, because of his love for Korean barbecue, opened a barbecue restaurant to satisfy his own taste and provide a gathering place for everyone. As a result, the restaurant grew larger and more branches were opened. The taxi took the two to the nearest Ba Ding Korean barbecue restaurant.

Ba Ding is the name of Jiang Hudong's barbecue restaurant. "Ba Ding" in Korean means butcher, which is a person who specializes in slaughtering cattle or pigs.

After getting out of the car, a large billboard stood at the entrance of Ba Ding Korean barbecue restaurant. Jiang Hudong's massive figure occupied the entire billboard, with an exaggerated expression on his face, pointing with his hand, and colorful comic advertisements featuring Jiang Hudong as the main character, all indicating that the owner of this restaurant is one of the three major figures in Korean variety shows.

"Let's go. If we can meet Brother Hu Dong here, we might get a free meal." Li Chong said to Quan Yuli as they entered.

At this moment, Quan Yuli was wearing a large furry hat, a long scarf, and a big mask, with only her eyes exposed, and even half of them were covered by the hat. Fortunately, it was the New Year's lunchtime, and there weren't many people eating barbecue, so there were still some private rooms available. The restaurant had more scattered tables, and there were only about five or six private rooms in a row.

Entering the private room, Quan Yuli let out a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness there aren't many people, so I wasn't recognized. Otherwise, I would have been on the front page tomorrow..." Quan Yuli took off her gear piece by piece.

"Hehe, there's nothing to worry about at Brother Hu Dong's place. He is an artist himself, so he pays special attention to the privacy of artists. Therefore, there won't be any news spreading from his restaurant." Li Chong explained, seeing how nervous Quan Yuli was.

"Ah, I see. Then why didn't you stop me from dressing up like this earlier..." Quan Yuli pouted, looking at Li Chong with a smile.

"Hehe, I was afraid you would be cold. Besides, we didn't drive here, and it's easy to be recognized when taking a taxi. I'm fine, but you are different. You are a rising star. I watched the MV of 'Kissing You,' it's great, and the song is also good. Have you started promoting it yet?" Li Chong helped Quan Yuli hang her hat and scarf on the coat rack.

"Yes, after the Spring Festival, we will start promoting it. The MV has a high click rate and good feedback." Quan Yuli said, as Li Chong asked about this.

"Right, the quality of this song is excellent. I think it can win a few first places. When that happens, your group will have more and more appearances." Li Chong nodded. Jin Young-min's strategy has been correct so far. Girls' Generation has only been active for half a year and has already become a very well-known girl group. They just need a few hit songs to become the top girl group. Although there are no top girl groups now, the most promising ones are Wonder Girls and Girls' Generation. After all, the strength of the group and the resources of the company are advantages of major companies.

"What do you want to eat?" Li Chong asked.

"Um, I heard that the pork belly at Brother Jiang Hudong's place is very delicious. Let's have that." Quan Yuli was also excited when it came to eating meat.

"Sure, let's also have some beef. We'll order enough for five people." Li Chong nodded.

This meal, Li Chong and Quan Yuli ate for two hours. The five-person portion of meat wasn't enough, so they ordered two more. After that, they had two bowls of rice, which finally filled their bellies to the brim.

"Uncle, I'm so full, I might not be able to walk." Quan Yuli touched her slightly round belly.

"I'm also very full. How about we go for a walk in Myeongdong later?" Li Chong also felt he had eaten too much. It seemed that even if he hadn't eaten so much meat in a long time, he didn't need to torture his stomach like this... It was uncomfortably bloated...

After resting for a while, Li Chong went to pay the bill, which was 350,000 Korean won. Li Chong exclaimed that it was worth it, making the waiter feel surprised. Was the food at his place cheap? He looked at the menu again, and the prices were still the same. Eating a meal for 350,000 won and calling it cheap?

Li Chong and Quan Yuli walked slowly on the street, the temperature in Seoul in February was still below zero, but the sun was out today, and there was no wind, so it felt warm. Both of them were dressed warmly and didn't feel cold.

"Yuli, do you plan to be an idol forever? Have you thought about what you will do after you stop being an idol?" Li Chong felt a bit lazy in the sun.

"I want to be an actress like Seo Ye Ji. During my trainee period, I focused on acting classes, and the company also planned for me to act in dramas and films during my solo promotions." Quan Yuli said.

"Then you should choose a university with acting courses. I think Dongguk University, Chung-Ang University, and Kyung Hee University are all good. Which one do you prefer?" Li Chong thought about university. Not going to university in Korea is a serious matter.

"I like Kyung Hee University and Chung-Ang University." Quan Yuli thought for a moment and said.

"Um... Chung-Ang University has a drama and film program, and Kyung Hee University has an arts program, focusing on music and dance." Li Chong basically knew what these universities offered, and he was most familiar with Dongguk University.

"Um, I'll look into it. It seems that applying to Chung-Ang University might have a higher chance of success." Quan Yuli thought for a moment and said.

"Hehe, it's just a suggestion. We should go back now. You need to take your clothes and backpack from my apartment. Your group members will be back soon, and it wouldn't be good if they saw you." Li Chong checked the time, it was almost three o'clock, and the Girls' Generation members should be back soon.

"Okay, Uncle, let's go back." Quan Yuli also knew that if her sisters found out that Li Chong was staying next door, it could lead to some complications, especially with Lin Yuna, who is a troublemaker.

After returning to the apartment, Li Chong and Quan Yuli went up the stairs one after the other. Li Chong, like a thief, took the elevator to the eighth floor and then walked up the safety stairs to the ninth floor, afraid of running into the Girls' Generation members.

Seeing no one around, he quickly rushed out and opened the door to his room. After a while, a series of knocks sounded, and Li Chong opened the door, giving Quan Yuli her down jacket and backpack, and giving her some instructions.

Quan Yuli entered the room and put her things on the bed. She saw that there were also things on the other bed, probably because Lin Yuna had returned. As soon as she stepped out of the bedroom, she met Lin Yuna coming out of the bathroom. "Yuli, you're back!" Lin Yuna greeted her warmly.

"Yes, how are you? Did you have a good Spring Festival?" Quan Yuli said calmly.

"It's the same... what else can it be!" Lin Yuna grumbled.

"What did you bring me to eat?" Lin Yuna seemed to think of something.

"It's in my backpack." Quan Yuli looked at Lin Yuna, who seemed like a child, and thought that such a life was actually quite nice.

Lin Yuna ran directly to the bedroom, saw the down jacket and backpack on Yuli's bed, and quickly picked them up to look through them. However, during the process, Lin Yuna felt a bit puzzled, but she couldn't remember what exactly was bothering her...
