The 2nd episode of Work Idol.
Liu Zhimin frowned, staring at Jiang Shu for a while, then pursed her lips.
“Can I refuse?”
“Of course.” Jiang Shu smiled, “The Mid-Autumn Festival gala is a day for everyone to gather and have fun. Do whatever makes you happy. If you don’t want to sit next to me, you absolutely can.”
“If I don’t sit next to you, you’ll be a little unhappy, won’t you?” Liu Zhimin snorted.
“I will be a little.” Jiang Shu looked at Liu Zhimin, who was bursting with tsundere attributes, with a beaming smile, and nodded, going along with her words.
“Alright then.” Liu Zhimin pretended to think for a moment, “Let’s go with your idea.”
“Kamsahamnida!” Jiang Shu showed a “honored” expression and bowed to Liu Zhimin in thanks.
“I’m a little hungry.” Liu Zhimin rubbed her stomach.
Jiang Shu, who had just straightened up, heard this and his “honored” expression was replaced by surprise.
“Hungry? It hasn’t even been half an hour since we had dinner.”
“I eat little.” Liu Zhimin looked up and said righteously.
Jiang Shu: “……”
Well, she really didn’t eat much. When they finished eating, she only had one piece from each of the three portions of fried chicken they ordered; the rest went into Jiang Shu’s stomach.
Girls really seem to prefer eating small portions frequently?
“What do you want to eat? There are quite a few street vendors, let’s just buy some.” Jiang Shu stretched lazily in place and asked.
“Let’s go buy some Oden.” Liu Zhimin heard Jiang Shu’s words, and her gaze had already flown to the Oden stall not far away.
Jiang Shu followed her gaze.
Compared to the Oden shops in China where you buy and go, the Oden stalls in Korea are generally similar to those in Japan, with a few small stools placed in front of the food cart, where you sit, eat, and then pay.
“It’s not convenient to sit and eat, is it?”
“Let’s buy it and eat in the car.” Liu Zhimin suggested.
“Okay.” Jiang Shu nodded, and the two went together to buy some Oden, then got into the car.
Not only was it easy to be recognized outside, but the weather was also very hot. With the air conditioning on in the car, they could also take off their masks to eat. Win!
“It’s still more comfortable without a mask.” Liu Zhimin took off her mask and said, comfortably narrowing her eyes.
“Eat quickly, it won’t taste good when it gets cold.” Jiang Shu handed the Oden in his hand to Liu Zhimin, “There’s mineral water in the car, should I get you a bottle?”
“I want something cold to drink.” Liu Zhimin took the Oden and blinked.
“I’ll buy it for you.” Jiang Shu shook his head helplessly, “What do you want to drink?”
“Hehe.” Liu Zhimin chuckled, “Chocolate milk!”
“Mm.” Jiang Shu responded, took the car keys from his waist, placed them on the center console, and then spoke to Liu Zhimin in the driver’s seat.
“The car keys are here, okay?”
“Nae~~”
Jiang Shu pushed open the car door and walked towards a convenience store directly opposite the parking lot exit.
Accompanied by the sound of wind chimes, Jiang Shu pushed open the convenience store door and entered. But as soon as he entered the convenience store, Jiang Shu noticed something was off and looked up towards the cashier.
Behind the cash register, a not-so-obvious camera was pointed towards Jiang Shu, and on the other side of the cash register, there was another camera pointed at the inside of the cash register.
Besides that…
Jiang Shu looked around and found three more cameras.
Jiang Shu, who had filmed several variety shows, was no stranger to this multi-camera setup.
It can’t be such a coincidence, can it?
Jiang Shu thought with a bit of helplessness.
Jiang Shu, standing still at the entrance, finally attracted the attention of the convenience store clerk. The male clerk, who was doing something at the cash register, looked up, eyed Jiang Shu curiously, and then spoke.
“Customer nim, how may I help you?” After saying this to Jiang Shu, the male clerk turned and shouted into the convenience store, “Hae Won-ssi, we have a customer.”
“Nae~~”
A familiar voice entered his ears, and Jiang Shu’s mouth twitched.
Is it really such a coincidence?
The next second, Wu Haiyuan, wearing a convenience store uniform, appeared in Jiang Shu’s line of sight.
“Customer nim, how may I help you?” Wu Haiyuan quickly came in front of Jiang Shu, with a big smile on her face, and asked after bowing to him.
Seemingly noticing Jiang Shu’s peculiar gaze, Wu Haiyuan curiously looked up and met Jiang Shu’s exposed eyes.
The moment their eyes met, Wu Haiyuan felt as if she had seen him somewhere before.
When encountering someone who might be familiar, Wu Haiyuan habitually looked at their cheekbones, which was her habit for recognizing people, and then…
How is this person so much like Chairman Jiang?
Wu Haiyuan first froze, then her pupils constricted.
“Chairman… Chairman Jiang?” Wu Haiyuan’s small face was filled with uncertain shock.
“It seems your new episode of ‘Work Idol’ is about experiencing the profession of a convenience store clerk.” Jiang Shu said with a smile, taking off his mask.
Seeing Jiang Shu’s face clearly, it really was Chairman Jiang Shu?!
“Good evening, Chairman Jiang nim!” Wu Haiyuan quickly bowed to Jiang Shu to greet him.
The male clerk had been watching the two, and upon seeing Jiang Shu’s true face, he also recognized this “Girl Group Godfather.”
“Oh my! Is it President nim of DM Entertainment?” The male clerk quickly walked out from behind the cash register, approached Jiang Shu, and also looked at Jiang Shu with a shocked expression.
“Hello, thank you for taking care of our Hae Won.” Jiang Shu said with a smile to the male clerk.
Our Hae Won, huh…
Wu Haiyuan pursed her lips, her eyes sparkling, and looked up at Jiang Shu’s profile.
Her own President, although he had a good relationship with them, wouldn’t use such words to talk to other people.
“No, no!” The male clerk waved his hands repeatedly, “Hae Won-ssi is very capable and helps me a lot.”
“That’s good.” Jiang Shu smiled and nodded, then looked at Wu Haiyuan, “This variety show seems very suitable for you.”
“Hehe.” Wu Haiyuan gave a simple laugh.
The variety show “Work Idol” was originally produced by DM Entertainment, and the production team was from DM Entertainment. Originally, the MC was going to be an IZONE member.
But later, for some reasons, that was abandoned, and eventually, by a strange twist of fate, it fell to Wu Haiyuan. After several episodes of diligently experiencing different professions, Wu Haiyuan also gained many fans through this variety show after it aired.
“Alright, I won’t disturb your work anymore.” Jiang Shu waved his hand, went to the refrigerator, took a bottle of chocolate milk, and then came to the cash register.
“Check out.”
“I’ll do it, I’ll do it!” Wu Haiyuan volunteered and came to the cash register, helping Jiang Shu check out.
Wu Haiyuan carefully collected the money and bowed to Jiang Shu again.
“Goodbye, President!”
“Goodbye.” Jiang Shu smiled and waved to her, then pushed the door open and walked out.
Wu Haiyuan watched Jiang Shu’s back intently until he disappeared from view.
