when idols fall in love

Chapter 171. 167. New Year's Day Blessing
"I also ate the steamed shrimp with minced garlic, should I put in some effort? Miss Li Zhien?"

After feeding the shrimp into Li Zhien's mouth, Gu Heng pointed to the cupboard.

"Hmph." Li Zhien walked over with strides, and took out a few sets of bowls and chopsticks.

It's just that there are seven people in the family tonight, and there are too many bowls and chopsticks that she can't handle by herself.

She tried to stack it twice but failed, she bit her lip lightly, and touched Gu Heng beside her with her elbow.

Gu Heng glanced at it, but didn't care about anything with her, and directly helped her to take it.

The two walked out of the kitchen together and came to the table.

After taking the chopsticks from Li Zhien and distributing them to each seat on the table, Gu Heng laughed softly,
"I said you girl, what are you messing with me about?"

"stop laughing"

Looking at Gu Heng, Li Zhien felt more and more that there were four words written on this face

——The spring breeze is proud.

With her mouth pursed, she looked directly at Gu Heng, "Oppa, don't you have anything to explain to me?"

"Confession?" Gu Heng frowned, "What confession?"

Seeing his blank face, Li Zhien felt even more angry.

Clenching the chopsticks tightly in her hand, she lowered her head and murmured, "I'm thinking wildly about what else to say. I think next year I have to prepare to be a little aunt. I'm only 20 years old and just came of age. How can you bear it!"

"Little aunt? You're messing around again." Halfway through Gu Heng's words, his face froze suddenly.

"Hmph, have you nothing to say?"

Seeing Li Zhien muttering, Gu Heng's thoughts were a little messy.

Since Lin Yuner said to give her some time to build up some goodwill in Li Zhien's heart, he has been careful not to disclose it to Li Zhien, but now this situation.
"Wait, how did you know?" Gu Heng said suspiciously.

"Anyway, I just know it, you don't care how I know it." Li Zhien felt guilty for a second, and finally did not dare to confess to the old lady.

Gu Heng looked down at Li Zhien, hesitant to speak.

At the same time, Li Zhien's expression was also a little subtle.

While thinking about how to extract the woman's name from her oppa, she began to struggle with another matter.

Glancing furtively in the direction of the kitchen, Li Zhien frowned her eyebrows downward, forming a figure eight.

Seeing her tangled and cute appearance, Gu Heng couldn't help but chuckled, and was about to say something while holding her head.

Pei Xiuzhi leaned out half of her body from the kitchen, "oppa, the dishes, soup and rice are all ready~ what are you two talking about?"

"It's nothing," Gu Heng replied, "I'm here to help."

"Don't think too much." He stroked the broken hair on Li Zhien's forehead, said something warmly, and then turned and went to the kitchen.

"Don't think too much, I hope I think too much."

Looking at Gu Heng's back, Li Zhien shook his head, and there was some "vicissitudes" in his tone that a 20-year-old should not have experienced.

Because of Pei Xiuzhi and Cui Zhenzhen's visit, the Li family's dinner tonight was much more lively.

It took nearly three hours for a dinner to finally end

——Of course, if Li Zhien didn't quarrel with Li Zhongxun, it would save about an hour.

After the meal, although the winter night was cold, Lee Jong-shin and his wife, who had long been accustomed to walking to digest food, went out together.

In the living room, Li Zhongxun was sitting in front of the sofa, holding a pen in his hand, staring intently at the TV not far away with a blank expression.

Li Zhien and Cui Zhenzhen sat next to him, one on the left and one on the right, pointing to a set of exercises and talking about something.

"Impossible! I can't remember it wrong," Li Zhien pressed his finger on his temple, "It's definitely C. I got this question wrong seven or one time, but I remember it clearly!"

"But according to the formula, you should choose A," Cui Zhenzhen did the calculation again, and asked silently, "How did you calculate it, Zhien?"

"I..." Li Zhien hesitated, turned to look at Li Zhongxun and narrowed his eyes, "Zhongxun, who do you listen to?"

Reluctantly looking away from the TV, Li Zhongxun lowered his head and turned to the last part of the exercise set.

After glancing at the reference answer, he silently turned back to the front and sketched the option of A.

Li Zhien's face froze immediately, and he took the exercise set and flipped through it again, "Impossible, I clearly remember, as long as you see this question, you must choose C."

After studying for a long time, she coughed lightly and muttered, "Now the questioner is too cunning to change the answer to A."

Hearing her mumbling, Li Zhongxun seemed to realize something, "No wonder my brother hasn't mentioned the matter of letting her take the college entrance examination recently."

"Ah, Lee Jong-hoon, what are you talking about? Oppa is understanding my itinerary."

There was another turmoil in the living room.

Not participating in the vicious fight between the siblings, Pei Xiuzhi sat cross-legged on the sofa and looked towards the kitchen.

After dinner, Gu Heng took over the cleaning and tidying up.

After thinking about it, she walked lightly into the kitchen.

But Gu Heng, who had his back to the door, was very keen. He turned his face away just as Pei Xiuzhi came to the door.

"Xiuzhi? Why are you here?"

"Zhi En and Zhong Xun are fighting, I'll come and hide." She made an excuse casually.

"The two of them." Gu Heng twitched the corners of his mouth, "Just get used to it."

Pei Xiuzhi took two steps forward and came to Gu Heng's side, and took a rag, "Let me clean the dishes for you."

"Okay." Seeing that Pei Xiuzhi was much more proficient than himself, Gu Heng raised his eyebrows, "Does Xiuzhi usually do housework?"

"No," Pei Xiuzhi smiled brightly, "My mother ran a noodle shop when I was young, so I have to help."

Before her debut, Abba's taekwondo coaching job income was not stable, and the noodle shop opened by Oh Ma was an important source of income for the family.

However, it is difficult to hire employees for a small business, so it is natural for Pei Xiuzhi to use her spare time to help in the store.

"So it's like this." Gu Heng nodded slightly, and suddenly said, "It's not easy to be alone in Seoul these few years, right?"

He recalled how he felt when he first came to Li's house.

Pei Xiuzhi hesitated for a moment, then nodded and then shook his head, "Compared to many people, I am lucky enough to be able to get what I want through hard work, and I am not qualified to say that it is easy or not."

"Did you know oppa, when I was in middle school, I first earned my salary by working part-time as a fashion model. When I came home, I felt that the whole world brightened up. From then on, I felt that the rewards of giving are in themselves A great fortune."

Gu Heng glanced at her in surprise, and immediately smiled, "Then wish us, Xiuzhi, that in the new year, we can continue to work hard to get what we want and realize what we want to accomplish."

"Thank you oppa!" She glanced at Gu Heng carefully, her eyebrows and eyes curved.

"Let's go, the dishes are finished." Gu Heng wiped his hands and put away the dishcloth, not noticing her eyes. "Tonight there will be a song festival on KBS TV, it should start soon."
