Chapter 21

In a barbecue restaurant called "678," it is said to be run by a famous host named Kang Ho-dong, who is as well-known as Yoo Jae-suk. Lee Seung-lin, Yoo Jae-suk, and Park Myung-soo were eating barbecue together.

An hour passed, and the two guys were just focused on eating meat. "Hey, it's obvious you have something to say, so just spit it out. I'm worried about the kid being with his grandmother..."

Finally, Yoo Jae-suk, who has been a long-time MC, couldn't stand the atmosphere and spoke up, "Seung-lin, actually, today is mainly because Myung-soo has something to ask you. You know, this guy is a devil in front of the camera, but he's actually an introverted person!"

"Hey, what are you saying? If others hear, how will I survive in the future!"

"Hehe, Myung-soo, just ask what you need to!" Hehe, look at how nervous he is...

"Seung-lin, you know, I got married in April, and at that time, we weren't that close, so I didn't invite you..."

At that time, we weren't that close, so there's no need to feel bad about it now, "Bro, it's fine, I didn't mind, and you don't need to invite me for a meal just because of that, right?"

Then, Lee Seung-lin saw Park Myung-soo's face turn red, and Yoo Jae-suk couldn't help but laugh, "What's wrong?"

"Um... I'm going to be a dad in about three months, which is August..." Park Myung-soo finally stammered out.

Getting married in April and having a child in August, that's pretty fast, isn't it? Is this even a big deal?

Yoo Jae-suk couldn't hold back and burst out laughing, "Myung-soo, you're nervous about being a dad, aren't you? Didn't you raise Huhu by yourself? He's here to learn from you!"

Now that it's out in the open, "Yeah, that's right, Seung-lin, when your wife was pregnant, were you nervous? I can't eat properly these days, and I'm scared of everything..."

Park Myung-soo rambled on about his situation, not noticing Lee Seung-lin's increasingly uncomfortable expression as he just kept drinking.

Yoo Jae-suk gently tugged at Park Myung-soo's mouth, "Bro..." and nodded his head.

"To be honest, Myung-soo, when Huhu's mom was pregnant, I didn't even know... I only found out I had a son when Huhu was a month old. If you want to know how to take care of a child, I can talk for three days and three nights, but I can't help with anything else!"

"What about the mother?"

"Hehe, I don't know, but she'll come back eventually!"

It seems there's quite a story here. Yoo Jae-suk and the others exchanged glances, "Seung-lin..."

"I'm fine, bro!" Lee Seung-lin was really fine. He wasn't that bothered from the start, and now he's a bit more involved with Han Seung-yeon. Whether they can be together, he doesn't know. Given his lack of security, after breaking up with his girlfriend in his previous life, he's not too keen on getting into a serious relationship. Let it be...

Lee Seung-lin was really fine, but the two guys were concerned and thought they should introduce him to a suitable streamer (doctor) for their girlfriend (wife) to meet, even though he has a child and is a bit unkempt, his car shows he's from a good family.

"By the way, Seung-lin, I'm getting married too!"

"Really?"

"Yeah, around July!"

"Congratulations, bro, for winning the beauty!" Yoo Jae-suk's girlfriend, Ro Jing'en, is a beautiful streamer. This guy really got lucky!

"Your future sister-in-law must be blind! She actually chose a grasshopper!"

"Hey, how can you talk like that? I'm a national MC, and I'd say your sister-in-law is the one who made a mistake by choosing such a devil!" Yoo Jae-suk countered.

"So what if I'm a devil? I'm also a fried chicken shop owner!"

"Isn't it about to go bankrupt?"

"Hey, how can you talk to your bro like that!"

Watching the two brothers bicker, Lee Seung-lin was secretly grateful, knowing they were trying to lighten the mood and not let him feel too down, but he really wasn't sad...

"By the way, Seung-lin, your song 'Little Wine Pock' is really doing well!"

"This is all thanks to PD Kim Tae-ho and the other brothers!"

"This has nothing to do with us, it's all your talent!" At this point, Park Myung-soo seemed to remember something, "Seung-lin, are you really a YG trainee? You're so popular now, but YG hasn't said anything. Many netizens found early YG trainees, and they all said they didn't know you."

Speaking of this, he was even mocked by his sister, Lee Chae-rin, saying how YG could have a guy who writes love songs instead of hip-hop. Sigh, his sister is too brainwashed...

"Indeed, I was a trainee for three years, from 2003 to 2006!"

"No wonder they didn't recognize you, you joined YG in 2003!" Yoo Jae-suk suddenly realized something was off, "2003? How old were you then? YG actually accepted you and trained you for three years?"

Lee Seung-lin thought for a moment, "By Korean age, I was probably fifteen..."

Fifteen... Yoo Jae-suk and Park Myung-soo were confused. They always thought Lee Seung-lin was a 70s baby like them, and now they felt their brains weren't enough, "So, how old are you now?"

"Twenty! My birthday is next month!" Mentioning his upcoming birthday, Lee Seung-lin was a bit gloomy. He never liked birthdays, and this year, his dad was planning to take him back to his hometown on his birthday, saying he was an adult now and needed to have a family gathering. What a hassle...

"That means you were only nineteen when you had Huhu..." The two brothers felt they were too old to be living like this.

"But, you really look young!" Park Myung-soo laughed, "I thought you were about our age..."

Well, not really, "Didn't I say I'm five years older than Eun-hye?"

"Eun-hye always calls you oppa, so we naturally assumed you were five years older than her! But if you're five years younger, why does she call you oppa?"

"She called me oppa on her own, and I just didn't deny it!" Where's the integrity...

The atmosphere got better, and everyone started drinking more, toasting each other cheerfully!

What? Under 19 years old?

Let's just ignore that...

"Seung-lin, you didn't come to Myung-soo's wedding, but you have to come to mine!"

"Of course, here's to you, Jae-suk, let's drink to your happy marriage!"

...

"Seung-lin, you're really good at writing songs!"

"Not really, just a bit, don't laugh!"

This guy completely forgot he was plagiarizing!

"Seung-lin, can you write a wedding song for me?"

"No problem, I'll definitely give you a hit song!"

Oh, what did I just agree to? Seeing Yoo Jae-suk's smug smile, I feel like I got tricked...

Drunk driving is wrong, but the tricked Lee Seung-lin still decided to take a drive. He ended up near a school, what was it called? Kent Foreign Language School?

He wasn't interested in the school, but he was intrigued by a group of girls fighting. It was really interesting, and he missed his youthful days.
