After a while, the polite waiter brought over the coffee and pastries that the two had just ordered. It was the store's signature popular coffee, pepper honey.
But this so-called "pepper honey". To put it bluntly, it is a latte with honey and black pepper.
"If I hadn't seen so many people drinking this coffee, I might have mistaken it for devil's cuisine. This style is quite strange." Lin Qingyuan stirred the steaming light brown liquid with a spoon, which was rich and tempting.
The mellow fragrance of people permeates the air, coupled with the soothing pure music, which makes people feel very comfortable.
"Maybe this is the style of Seongsu-dong." It was actually the first time for Yoo Jimin to drink coffee from this shop.
"I've actually always been curious about the taste of coffee with pepper." After Lin Qingyuan finished speaking, he lowered his head and took a sip of coffee, frowning slightly without saying a word, looking thoughtful.
"How's it going? Oppa, does it taste good?"
Liu Zhimin looked at Lin Qingyuan expectantly, her eyes flashing with light falling from the dome. She didn't want the cafe she found to dissatisfy Oppa.
"Try it yourself."
Liu Jimin then picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, and then happily exclaimed: "It tastes good!"
"It's not bad." Lin Qingyuan then smiled, "To be honest, I'm a little surprised."
"I didn't expect such a strange combination to taste good." The stone in Liu Zhimin's heart finally fell, and what followed was satisfaction and joy.
"Oppa, I found that the weirder the combination, the more unlikely it seems to come together, the more likely it is that unexpected and good chemical reactions will burst out~"
"What are you implying?" Lin Qingyuan wanted to laugh.
"I didn't hint at anything~" Liu Zhimin shook his head, but soon he seemed to suddenly think of something, and turned his head again, looking at Lin Qingyuan with a serious expression, "But Oppa, don't you think that the Chinese actor
Is this combination, which seems completely unrelated to South Korean idols, exactly the same as this cup of pepper honey?”
"If I hadn't tried it myself, I would never have known that pepper and honey latte could taste so good together! Thinking about it this way, I feel that I really missed out on a lot of good things in the first twenty years~" Liu Zhimin looked aggrieved.
She looks like a pig with a pouty mouth.
Lin Qingyuan was silent for a moment, then opened another topic with a smile: "So where will we go after drinking this cup of coffee? Do you have any other plans next?"
"Wait a minute, let me check the time first." Liu Zhimin looked down at the time on his phone, then raised his head again and looked at Lin Qingyuan with interest, "By the way, Oppa, have you taken other girls on a ferry before?"
"Sit in the Magic City." Lin Qingyuan did not deny it.
"Ah? It's such a pity that I didn't get Oppa's first time." Yoo Jimin shrugged helplessly, but there was a meaningful and narrow smile on his face.
"So your next plan is to take me on a ferry to see the river view?" Lin Qingyuan asked calmly.
"Yeah, yeah, the ferry on the Han River!" Liu Zhimin nodded seriously, "Oppa comes to South Korea so rarely, he must have never been on one."
"No."
"So, Oppa, are you willing?" Liu Zhimin moved his butt towards Lin Qingyuan again, leaned into his ear and said, "The weather is moderate tonight, neither cold nor hot. It is very suitable to take the ferry and enjoy the river breeze.
Look at the night view~”
Their seats were close to the window, and Lin Qingyuan looked at the scenery outside the shop through the carefully wiped glass.
At 8:30 in the evening, it is the time when the exciting nightlife of contemporary young people begins. Compared with the leisurely and quiet atmosphere when we arrived, there are already more and more fashionable and beautiful young men and women wandering around the streets and alleys of Seongsu-dong. Many people
There were bright smiles on their faces.
"Well, let's go after drinking this cup of coffee." Lin Qingyuan agreed to Liu Zhimin's request by mistake.
The Han River ferry was no different from the Huangpu River ferry he had taken in Shanghai before. They both stood on the deck and enjoyed the river breeze while admiring the night view along the way.
The only difference is probably the flow of people.
Perhaps due to the friendship over the past two years, there were very few tourists on this ferry, so there was no need to worry about being crowded and exposing one’s identity.
Lin Qingyuan was leaning on the railing while holding a cup of coffee he had just bought, looking out at the brightly lit city that stayed up all night, his eyes filled with overwhelming brilliance.
"This is my first time taking a ferry on the Han River." Liu Zhimin stood close to Lin Qingyuan, raised his head cautiously, and looked at him with adoring eyes.
In the eyes of others, a pair of opposite sexes having such close contact should be no different from lovers.
And this is exactly the effect she wants.
"You haven't sat down for the past twenty-one years?"
"Not once. I had no idea of taking a ferry before," Liu Zhimin shook his head. "I used to stand on a high-rise building in the city center and look at the Han River. This time I finally looked at the city center from the Han River."
Lin Qingyuan pursed his lips and smiled, "Yes, ferries are generally only used by tourists from out of town, and locals will not spend time on a river that can be seen every day."
"But the feeling I feel when I look at Seoul from the Han River now is completely different from the feeling I had when I looked at Seoul from a tall building before." Yoo Jimin narrowed his eyes because of the wind.
"Of course it will be different."
"Do you think Oppa is beautiful?"
"It's beautiful, but not as good as Magic City." Lin Qingyuan gave an absolutely objective and fair personal evaluation.
The night view of Seoul is indeed not as good as that of the Magic City.
"Is that so?" Liu Zhimin lowered his head and pondered.
Lin Qingyuan asked with some surprise: "As a South Korean, don't you argue for Seoul?"
"There is no need to argue about this kind of thing, because I have never been to the Magic City and don't know what it's like there, so it's best not to express your opinion casually." Liu Zhimin reached out to tuck the wind-blown hair and said softly.
.
"If everyone could be as sensible as you, then there would be a lot less trouble in this world." Lin Qingyuan turned to face Liu Zhimin, then zipped up her coat, "Stop blowing the river breeze."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Oppa praises me so much, I will be shy." Yoo Jimin was happy in her heart, and it reflected on her face that she had a smile on her face.
Lin Qingyuan glanced at Liu Zhimin's sunny smile and said, "I can't tell you are shy at all."
"My heart is beating very fast now, and it keeps beating. If you don't believe me, touch my left chest!" Liu Zhimin stretched out her advantage, and her full curves that couldn't be covered by her coat shone brightly in the night.
.
"Don't hurt me." Lin Qingyuan was speechless.
If a woman said this to Lin Qingyuan on a neon tram, then he would probably consider launching a samurai duel against her that would end the family honor.
"I'm just joking, kkkk!" Yoo Jimin covered her face and let out a successful prank laugh.
"Then you succeeded." Lin Qingyuan curled his lips helplessly, then turned around again and focused his gaze on the dark river surface that was constantly rippled.
The miracle was completed on September 10th, today is the 19th.
In the past nine days, he has attended the McLaren offline meeting in the UK, shot the solo cover of the October issue of Vogue UK, and assembled the historical achievements of the four major editions of Vogue, truly shaking up the global fashion industry.
, took Cheng Xiao to visit Cambridge again.
I went to New York to make my first Met Gala appearance, photographed the cover of the October issue of ELLE US, discussed music throughout the night with my idol Taylor, came to Seoul to shoot two commercials and a Marie Claire cover, and crawled with "quasi-employee" Miyawaki Sakura
I went to the mountain and recorded a variety show by the way.
It was obviously only a few days, but it felt like a long time.
But what I have to say is that when the crew was filming and doing repetitive work every day, it was not as interesting as running around outside to witness different beauties.
"Oppa, are you in a daze?" Liu Zhimin's sudden voice interrupted Lin Qingyuan's random thoughts.
"Huh?" Lin Qingyuan didn't understand what it meant.
"Everyone refers to being in a daze when looking at water as being in a daze recently. I also want to try what it feels like to be dazed by water, just like Oppa," Liu Jimin explained seriously, tilting his head.
"I probably understand what you mean."
"I know Oppa is very busy in life and work right now, so he might as well take a nap and relax!"
"But why aren't you stunned?" Lin Qingyuan could actually sense that Liu Zhimin had been watching him from the side.
"Because I have better things to watch!"
"What."
Lin Qingyuan's questioning voice stopped abruptly, because Liu Zhimin's eyes that looked closely at him had clearly revealed the answer to the question he wanted to ask.
"Oppa, can you lend me your face temporarily?" Yoo Jimin's shining eyes seemed to reflect the lights on the river bank, but they were all the same person.
It was really strange to be stared at with such fiery eyes. Lin Qingyuan looked away and said, "You can watch it if you want. You don't need to ask for my opinion on this kind of thing."
"In that case, I won't be polite~" After Liu Zhimin said that, he squeezed into the extremely small gap between Lin Qingyuan and the deck guardrail, then hugged him from the front very hard, and buried his face in his arms.
There is no need to elaborate on the redundant words.
Her thoughts and attitude were clear at a glance. It would not be very polite for Lin Qingyuan to pretend not to understand.
"But I rarely come to South Korea." He said solemnly.
"Oppa doesn't need to come here often." Liu Zhimin said.
"I don't quite understand your fan mentality."
"Oppa doesn't need to understand." Liu Zhimin shook his head, "Oppa just needs to accept and approve."
"Then what else can I say?"
"No need to say anything."
Liu Zhimin pulled down her and Lin Qingyuan's masks, put her hands around his neck, then tried to stand on tiptoes, leaned forward and kissed him gently but firmly.
Accompanied by the cool night breeze and swaying lights, it is indeed a rare experience to admire the various Seoul bridges passing by on the deck at close range.
However, for the two people who were transformed into Jack Rose and were kissing passionately in the corner of the deck, the experience on the Han River ferry tonight was obviously more profound than others.
The next morning, Lin Qingyuan came to the gym that Kim Jong Kook had arranged with him on time to participate in the recording of the program.
There were only three people in the shot throughout.
Lin Qingyuan, Kim Jong Kook and his friend, a fitness trainer who is much bigger than Kim Jong Kook.
"How are you? How are you doing recently?" Kim Jong Kook hugged Lin Qingyuan who walked into the camera.
"Working and living very hard." Lin Qingyuan took off his mask and put it in his jacket pocket as required by the recording.
Although it is during the period of friendship, the guests on this show do not need to wear masks. On the contrary, Kim Jong Kook, the resident MC who is present in every episode, will not take off his mask and show his face.
"I also watched the Met Gala a few days ago. Our Qingyuan was very charming on the red carpet!"
"Thank you. I have watched a few episodes of "GYM JONG KOOK" and I think the program is very interesting."
"Actually, Qingyuan also exercises regularly and maintains a good figure. However, I feel like you are a little thinner than the last time we met. Is it an illusion?" Kim Jong Kook talked to the camera, his strong chest muscles making him oversize.
The T-shirt stretches like a tights.
"Well, because of the filming role, I have controlled my diet and lost a few kilograms in the past few months."
“Really very professional”
"this is necessary"
After the brief business exchange and awkward chat, we got to the main point of recording and started today’s iron lifting.
The training intensity is frighteningly high, very exaggerated!
Each group was exhausted and the interval was very short.
No matter how fierce a man comes, he will be yelled at!
"Has Qingyuan been working very hard recently? Obviously your muscle mass and body fat percentage have not declined compared to last year, but it feels like your current sports performance has dropped a lot."
"I'm a little tired." Lin Qingyuan thought of Liu Zhimin, who was sleeping soundly on the hotel bed. He felt embarrassed, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "I will go to the UK first, then the United States, and then South Korea. I have to fly to Beijing non-stop this afternoon.
The physical burden is certainly very heavy.”
"No wonder, then rest more between each set. There is no need to force it. The number of each set is not important, the process is the most important." Kim Jong Kook didn't think much about it at all.
After all, I just finished a strenuous exercise in the evening, and when there was obviously insufficient rest time, it would be too exaggerated to immediately run over for high-intensity fitness the next day.
If this is the case, then how high the testosterone level must be! It is not within the range of normal people!
After the recording of this dizzying one-hour iron lifting program ended, Lin Qingyuan returned to the hotel and had lunch with the confused Xiao Liu who had already woken up. Then he said goodbye and headed to the airport to embark on his journey back to China.
Apart from the shooting of two commercials today and tomorrow, the remaining major schedules this month are the launch of "Swordsman in the Snow" and the premiere of "Changjin Lake".
Frankly speaking, Lin Qingyuan attaches great importance to the movie "Changjin Lake" which grossed 5.7 billion in box office in the original time and space.
Because this may help him and Wu Jing completely establish their historical status as the top two Chinese-language movies at the box office.
Moreover, he is even much better than Wu Jing in terms of popularity, influence, awards and commercial value.
The subjects that Wu Jing can play, Lin Qingyuan can also play.
What Wu Jing can't do, Lin Qingyuan can still do.
Therefore, there is no doubt that once the two series Changjin Lake and Shuimenqiao achieve the success they deserve at the box office, they will completely widen the already huge commercial value gap between Lin Qingyuan and other active actors in China.
