Chapter 969: Celebrate the Festival in Advance
IU rarely ends practice early, at least it has never happened to the live bands during their time with IU. Anyway, the daily practice time is to go through the songs of the concert, and if IU feels that there is something that is not done well, IU will practice a few more times. Today, after IU's phone rang with a special "Kakao" message tone, she ended her practice early.
The live bands certainly won't ask about IU's news, but they are still very curious in their hearts. Who can use a text message to make IU rush to end her practice? Some people speculated whether the sender was Zhang Pingan? After all, the rumors about Zhang Pingan and IU have been around for a long time.
No matter who it is, who can stop IU from practicing, it must be a very important person in IU's life.
Sitting in the car on the way back, there were only IU and Han Te in the car. Of course, Han Te knew who could stop Li Zhien from practicing, so he said, "Is Zhang PD back from filming?"
The news that Zhang Pingan and Luo Yingshi's team left Korea to film "New Journey to the West" was photographed when the group of "monsters" appeared at the airport, so many people knew about Zhang Pingan's overseas news, including Han Te who saw the news. And today, in addition to Zhang Pingan returning to Seoul, Han Te couldn't think of anyone else who could let Li Zhien finish practicing early.
Besides, even if someone else invited Li Zhien to a Christmas Eve dinner, even if she agreed to go to the social event, she still had to wait until she finished practicing, or she would refuse directly.
Only Zhang Pingan was the only person Li Zhien couldn't refuse!
Listening to Hunter's question, Li Zhien did not hide anything. Instead, she smiled happily and said, "Well, he just sent me a message saying that he was waiting for me to come back for supper. He probably guessed that I was practicing the dance for the title song today? And I thought that the next concert would take half a month, so even if I finished early today, it would not have much impact on the subsequent performances, right?"
Indeed, there is still half a month before the next Taiwan Strait concert at the beginning of the new year. If you say that ending practice early today will affect the concert half a month later, it is simply nonsense.
Hunter nodded with a smile and said, "You just finished two concerts here, and you have to pay attention to the dance practice of the main song during this period, so it's okay to take some time to rest. Is he filming "New Journey to the West" on an island this time? Not long ago, didn't he send a photo of him and Luo Yingshi scouting the island?"
Li Zhien shook her head and responded, "No, he said that this time the filming was in an inland city in China. The last time he went to the island to scout the location was to prepare for a new program. It seems that the new program was also filmed at the end of the year. The last time I talked to him, he also said that he had been negotiating with the locals for half a year to communicate the filming issues of the new program."
After hearing that it was a new collaboration between Zhang Pingan and Luo Yingshi, Hunter said, "Is it a new program? Collaborating with Luo PD again? Then this new program must have a very high ratings, right? Didn't he invite you to participate?"
Because the ratings of "Three Meals a Day" in the countryside and fishing village this year have set new highs, especially after the ocean ranch moved to a new place, there is a more quiet and comfortable scenery. In addition, many actors and idols were invited to the island, so the ratings of the program rose sharply when summer arrived.
And Han Te felt that such a comfortable and peaceful program was very suitable for Li Zhien,
because that program did not need to be funny, nor did it need to deliberately do anything. The relaxed and natural environment of the program itself was the best healing. While healing the audience, it also healed the busy Li Zhien.
Li Zhien shook her head and said: "He did mention a new variety show or something. Later, he said forget it, and I didn't ask more about the details. As a result, one day I watched "Train to Busan" with him at home. After watching it for a while, he called Director Luo Yingshi and asked if he could invite Jung Yumi to participate in this filming? It seems that it has been confirmed."
"Train to Busan", a movie that has both box office and word-of-mouth, Han Te certainly watched it, and Jung Yumi's performance in the movie was also very good. When hearing Zhang Pingan directly invite the hottest actress with a box office of tens of millions, Han Te was also surprised: "Oh? Invited Zheng Yumei? Sure enough, Zhang Pingan and Luo Yingshi are very good at dealing with actors, as if there is no one they can't invite. Yes, the program they cooperated with is very unique. Ask Zhang PD one day if he can invite you to appear in his program."
Li Zhien immediately stopped and said: "Don't, some time ago he suddenly said something, let me give him five minutes of "IU.TV" to let him try."
That is Li Zhien's exclusive "reality show" program, of course the program is limited to recording her daily work.
Hant smiled and said: "That's great, what is he going to try?"
"Fashion!"
"Hahaha~~!"
.......
Soon Li Zhien returned home, and when she entered the room, Zhang Pingan turned off the big lights in the living room, the remaining soft lights in the room, and the candlesticks he placed for the candlelight dinner. Li Zhien was instantly surrounded by happiness and tenderness. She looked at Zhang Pingan with a smile and said gently, "Oppa, when did you come back?"
Zhang Pingan walked towards Li Zhien with a smile, then reached out to take her backpack. At the same time, he responded to Li Zhien: "I came back this afternoon. I thought it would be Christmas soon. And the most we can do when we come back this time I have a week off to go overseas to film a new program, so I don’t have time to spend Christmas with you, so I thought we’d spend it early while you’re not particularly busy recently.”
Carrying Li Zhien's backpack, he came to the living room. He temporarily placed the bag on the sofa, then picked up the cosmetics box he bought from the table in the living room and carried it over. Li Zhien looked at the Christmas-wrapped cosmetics box and said with a smile, "Oh no, I haven't even prepared a Christmas gift for you yet."
Zhang Ping'an smiled and handed the cosmetics to Li Zhien, and said at the same time: "Aren't you the best gift in my life? So having you by your side is more valuable than any other gift."
The sweet words made Li Zhien purse her lips and smile. She said, "Humph, you know how to coax me with nice words. Thank you, I will make good use of your gift."
Li Zhien opened the gift box and smiled with satisfaction when she saw that it was her usual hydrating set. In fact, for the little rich girl Li Zhien, it doesn't really matter whether the 'gifts' are expensive or not, as long as these things represent his feelings, it is enough.
Zhang Ping'an said with a smile: "I ordered a Chinese style roast chicken and pizza. Christmas seems to be about eating these things, so let's eat some together. This roast chicken will be treated as a turkey, hahaha~~!"
Li Zhien smiled and nodded: "Okay, let's just treat this as turkey."
Amidst the laughter, Zhang Ping'an went to take out the sobered red wine bottle and prepared to add a bit of romance. Although neither of them is that keen on red wine, they can still have a drink in such a scene. Zhang Pingan poured a glass for Li Zhien with a decanter. The two pretended to clink the red wine glasses. When the red wine glasses made a crisp sound, the two took a sip of the wine. After putting down the glasses, the two looked at each other. Happy laughter broke out: "Hahaha~~"
Because Li Zhien knew very well that Zhang Pingan was not the kind of person who liked drinking red wine, so the two of them were just pretending at this time.
After laughing, Zhang Pingan pointed to the candle and said, "Blow it out, we'd better turn on the light and eat."
The two of them are already living together, so these romances are just the beginning of a ceremony. It's really not necessary for the two of them to have a candlelight dinner in the dark.
After the lights were turned on, Li Zhien blew out the candles. She reached for a piece of pizza and started eating: "On the way back, Hunter and I talked about your new show. What format is it?"
Zhang Ping'an put on his gloves and began to tear into the roasted chicken. He broke off a chicken leg and placed it on the plate in front of Li Zhien: "The program is called "Yin's Cafeteria". It is about opening a simple cafeteria overseas. It is not for profit. The purpose is to experience the leisure time on the island as a New Year’s cure for the audience, and at the same time to promote Korean cuisine.”
Li Zhien asked in confusion: "Why is it called 'Yin's Cafeteria'? Didn't you say we would invite Zheng Yumei?"
Zhang Pingan said with a smile: "Zheng Yumei is just a helper. The chef of our show is senior Yoon Ruzhen, the bar boy and waiter are Li Ruizhen, and there are also members of Grandpas Over Flowers behind us."
When Li Zhien heard that Zhang Ping'an actually contacted the super senior Yin Ruzhen to be the chef of the restaurant, her eyes widened instantly, and her face was full of shock: "Really hired senior Yin Ruzhen? This...this..."
Li Zhien's shock made Zhang Ping'an say with a satisfied smile: "Hey, "Yin's Kitchen", of course I invited the senior to take charge of the dishes. I want senior Yin Ruzhen to learn simple cooking in the next few days."
Li Zhien responded with a smile: "Hey, it's Yoon Yeo-jung senior again, and it's Flowery Grandpa again. Why do I suddenly feel that the fate of senior Lee Seo-jin and senior Jung Yu-mi... is a bit miserable."
Zhang Ping'an smiled and said: "Zheng Yumei is okay, Li Ruizhen should be a bit more miserable, he has to do a lot of heavy and tiring work. I didn't lie to him at the beginning of the last filming of "Three Meals a Day" Did you say I would give him a beautiful kitchen? Today I gave it to him. The location we chose for this shoot is Indonesia.”
Li Zhien said with a smile: "Indonesia? It's a beautiful place. I've been there before to participate in activities. It's just that my schedule was too busy at the time, so I didn't get to enjoy Bali or anything."
