The peninsula spans mountains and seas just for you.
Chapter 4 Is she alright?
The group of people got tired of playing and sat down next to Li Qingshan.
Maruko, like a lively little elf, couldn't stay still and skipped off to feed the dog water. Sunny chased after her, holding a water cup, trying to feed her water as well.
They spoiled her rotten. Hyoyeon couldn't bear to watch any longer. Seeing that the little one was covered in sweat, she went over to help Maruko carry the water basin.
"Oh my, what kind of parents are you!" Sunny complained when she saw the couple not moving. "Did you find this child? You might as well give him to me."
Li Qingshan and Lin Yun'er exchanged a glance, their faces breaking into exceptionally happy smiles.
Sunny's love for Chibi Maruko-chan is well-known, and according to her, she doesn't plan to have any more children in the future.
She treated Maruko as her own daughter, and Maruko especially liked her as her godmother.
"Sunny, dinner's up to you now." Li Qingshan casually opened a can of beer. "And it's up to you to take care of Maruko's bath too."
"Hey, am I a babysitter?" Sunny bent down to feed Maruko water, then turned around and shouted, "Are you even human?"
"Hey, don't swear in front of Maruko!" Hyoyeon quickly hissed at Sunny.
Sure enough, Maruko followed suit, shaking her head and shouting "Yashi, yoshi" in a cute and innocent way, which charmed everyone present.
"Hey, Lee Soon-kyu, if you keep swearing in front of the kids, I'm going to drink you to death tonight."
When Li Qingshan saw the child imitating the swear words, he was furious.
Sunny knew she was in the wrong; she had blurted it out in a moment of carelessness, and now she felt a little guilty.
"Maruko, you can't say those two words, they're bad words, good girl..."
Sunny quickly stepped in to save the day, mimicking Maruko's sweet, childlike voice as she spoke softly to her.
Li Qingshan got goosebumps all over his body from hearing this.
"Sunny's mom, I'm hungry," Maruko called out in her babyish voice from in Sunny's arms.
Li Qingshan shook his head helplessly, got up and went inside to cook. He knew Sunny's lifestyle of ordering takeout every day, so how could she possibly cook?
Don't make the child's stomach upset.
When Lin Yoona saw Li Qingshan get up, she knew he was going to cook. He was a very good cook, and he made authentic Chinese food.
There was soup simmering in the kitchen; Xiaowanzi drinks medicinal soup almost every two days.
The child is very healthy, and this is to make her even healthier, plus my wife and child both love drinking it.
The three women waited leisurely outside for dinner, bathed in the glow of the setting sun.
"Why did you suddenly decide to go public?" Hyoyeon asked curiously.
"I want my child to live a normal life. Yesterday, Qingshan told me that my child is actually very lonely, but he is still young and doesn't feel it yet. When he gets older, he might have problems."
Yoona spoke calmly, but her heart was filled with guilt. She continued:
"I'm willing to quit the entertainment industry for my daughter, Xiaowanzi. We're not short of money. My husband and child are my everything right now. They always accommodated me before, but this time, for my child, it's all worth it."
Sunny realized that Yoona was determined this time, and it was clear that she was willing and had no resentment whatsoever.
"Just say so if you need any help," Hyoyeon said loyally.
"Oh, little thing, who taught you to call me Sunny's mom?" Sunny's intention to change the subject was quite obvious.
"Daddy taught me this afternoon," Maruko said, tilting her head back with an innocent look. "Daddy said it's polite to call someone by their name."
Seeing her adorable appearance, Sunny hugged her and showered her with kisses, making the child giggle.
Hyoyeon, watching from the side, suddenly understood Yoona deeply. With such a cute little thing, who could bear to let anything happen to her?
Three women were outside playing with the child and chatting.
"Dinner's ready!" Li Qingshan shouted from inside the house. Sunny picked up the child and ran inside. The child was tired from playing and his stomach was already growling with hunger.
"Sunny, put her down," Li Qingshan said as he set out the bowls and chopsticks. "Don't spoil her. She's very well-behaved now, eating by herself."
Yoona pulled over the high chair, took the child, and gently placed her down.
"I want to eat beef! I want to eat beef!" Maruko shouted excitedly when she saw the grilled beef brisket on the table.
Li Qingshan took her small plate and carefully served her some food.
Sunny looked at the chili peppers in the beef brisket, then at Li Qingshan and Lin Yun'er.
"This is spicy! Neither of you eat spicy food, why are you giving it to the child?" Sunny asked, her face full of doubt.
"See that Lao Gan Ma over there?" Li Qingshan pointed with his chin at the table next to him. "The little one secretly ate half of it."
"That's strange. Neither of you eats spicy food, so why does she like it?"
Hyoyeon found it very amazing and muttered to herself.
Li Qingshan isn't completely unable to eat spicy food; he just doesn't like sweet and spicy food. The kimchi on the peninsula is all sweet and has no saltiness at all, which doesn't suit his taste at all.
Braised beef brisket, dry-fried skinned fish, pork bone soup, stir-fried shiitake mushrooms and bok choy, and stir-fried shredded potatoes with vinegar.
Four dishes and a soup, all in large portions. It was more than enough for several people. Li Qingshan didn't eat leftovers, so he didn't make many fancy dishes.
Seeing the table full of delicious food, Lin Yoona's mouth watered. Li Qingshan invited them to have some soju or beer first.
We'll cook a couple more dishes and have some drinks later, after the kids are asleep. That's how we always do it.
In front of Maruko were two bowls and a plate: a bowl of soup, a small bowl of rice, and a plate of vegetables.
Watching her eat is a joyful experience; Hyoyeon loves watching Yoona eat with her daughter.
Their movements and expressions were exactly the same, and she watched with great interest.
"Oh, Qingshan, it's such a waste that you don't run a restaurant with such culinary skills."
Sunny genuinely praised his cooking skills, no wonder Yoona couldn't wait to head to Jeju Island as soon as she finished her schedule.
"Maybe she ran back because she's good in bed." Hyoyeon always speaks faster than she thinks, and she realizes her words are inappropriate as soon as they leave her mouth.
"Drink your wine, food can't shut you up," Lim Yoona said with a coquettish laugh as she clinked glasses with her.
Seeing that she didn't deny it, the two men looked at the couple with mischievous smiles.
She's already a mother, what's there to be ashamed of, what's there to be afraid to say?
"By the way, when does filming for the show start?" Sunny put down her wine glass and asked Lim Yoona.
"It will take about a week. We'll film first, then edit it, and it'll probably air in August."
Yoona asked the director about it that night, and the director told her to keep in touch and communicate any good ideas she might have.
"Do you need any help?" Hyoyeon asked, pouring a drink. "Just let me know if you need any assistance."
Yoona nodded; she hadn't seen the notebook yet.
"You guys are hiding here so leisurely, Seoul is going to be in an uproar. We were all blocked off yesterday."
"The company told us not to give interviews or discuss your affairs for the time being."
Hyoyeon and Sunny were chatting away, making the company quite lively.
"Your contracts expire in two years. What are your plans?" Li Qingshan asked the two of them.
Lee Cheong-san doesn't care about Lim Yoon-a's contract issues. She's SM's flagship now, and she has complete control over her activities. Otherwise, if she leaves SM Entertainment, the stock price will plummet.
Although she's not the most profitable employee for the company right now, she likes her current situation. She can rest when she wants and take on work when she wants. Not being active for six months won't have much of an impact on her.
"Renew the contract, and make money," Hyoyeon answered simply and clearly.
"I won't renew my contract. I'm actually quite fed up with it," Sunny said with a nonchalant smile.
She's a homebody and prefers to work less since she's already earned enough money.
"How about we spend money to buy the name Girls' Generation?" Li Qingshan suggested to Lin Yoona.
"Forget it, SM only cares about money now, they won't sell the copyright to a name as easily as they did with Shinhwa."
Sunny kindly reminded him that doing this was pointless.
"I just want to see all nine of you on stage together again before I die," Li Qingshan sighed, expressing his true feelings.
Lin Yoona glanced at him sideways, and Li Qingshan noticed.
"I was just expressing my thoughts as a fan," Li Qingshan explained, a little flustered.
The two people opposite were trying not to laugh.
"Have you visited her and the child recently?" Yoona asked casually.
"No, I don't have time. I'm busy enough taking care of this little tyrant at home every day."
Li Qingshan spoke calmly, and casually wiped Xiaowanzi's mouth.
"Go and see him when you have time. He's Yoon-sung's brother." Lim Yoon-ah looked at Lee Cheong-san with a serious expression in her eyes.
Li Qingshan looked into Lin Yun'er's eyes for a moment, nodded, and said nothing more.
He knew that Yoona was serious and not teasing him; when she mentioned Maruko's full name, it meant she was serious.
"How is she doing now?" Hyoyeon asked cautiously.
"It's going well. I'm planning to be active in mainland China soon. My child is studying in Hong Kong. We contacted each other a while ago."
Lin Yoona glanced at Li Qingshan and answered directly.
Everyone then fell silent.
"I'm full, I want some water." Maruko broke the silence, making the atmosphere less awkward.
"Hyoyeon's mom will pour you some water. Wait here."
"Thank you, Hyoyeon's mom, I love you!" Maruko shook her head and raised her two chubby little hands to make a heart shape with her fingers.
Everyone at the table burst into laughter at her antics; this little thing remembered what Li Qingshan did to Lin Yoona after just one instance.
