Peninsula: I, who was originally a camera, suddenly became an internet sensation.

Chapter 35 Losing weight starts with losing weight...

The situation with JYP has temporarily come to an end.

All the TWICE members were busy with their Japanese album and tour, and Hwang Yeji and her teammates also began their final sprint training for their upcoming debut. Lee Won naturally wouldn't bother them or distract them.

That evening, Huang Lizhi returned home looking exhausted.

When she pushed open the door, her hair was damp with sweat, sticking to her forehead and cheeks, and her sportswear was a little wrinkled.

She changed her shoes, didn't even sit on the sofa in the living room, and rushed straight towards the kitchen.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Li Yuan quickly grabbed her arm at the kitchen doorway.

Good grief, we almost let her in.

"I'll cook for Oppa." Hwang Yeji turned around, his eyes full of self-righteousness. "After all, I'm staying at your house. It wouldn't be right if I didn't do something."

"No need then." Li Yuan shook his head and was about to continue when he noticed that the light in Huang Lizhi's eyes dimmed for a moment. He quickly added, "I've already made it. It's in the kitchen. You can just go and eat it."

After Li Yuan and Wu Haiyuan finished chatting, they returned. While Huang Lizhi was still away, they went to the nearby farmers' market and bought some ingredients.

Considering that Huang Lizhi might not be used to the strong flavors of Chinese cuisine, he made a tomato and egg stir-fry that people all over the world could accept, and a low-fat shredded chicken dish.

After all, she has always had high standards for body management, and the company conducts monthly weight assessments.

Huang Lizhi brought two dishes out of the kitchen, and then scooped out a small half bowl of rice—she hadn't originally planned to eat it, but cooked it purely because she was worried that Li Yuan would be hungry.

But after hearing Li Yuan's words, she insisted on trying it.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Following Li Yuan's instructions, Huang Lizhi poured a little bit of the scrambled eggs with tomatoes into the rice, then scooped a little bit with a small spoon and put it in his mouth. His eyes lit up immediately.

The surprise of being suddenly awakened from exhaustion by delicious food brought her whole face to life.

"Eat more if it's good." Li Yuan leaned back in his chair, already on his phone, browsing computer parts. "Anyway, I'll digest all this in one practice session tomorrow."

He started selecting graphics cards, motherboards, and RAM, adding them to his shopping cart one by one. He had assembled his first desktop computer himself, which, although it only cost less than three thousand yuan, had been with him for a long time.

"No way, it's not easy to maintain this weight." Huang Lizhi said, but his chopsticks honestly picked up another bit of shredded chicken and put it in his mouth. As he chewed, he found it so delicious that his legs started to sway involuntarily.

"You're already on the verge of a dangerous situation, starting with losing weight in your chest area." Li Yuan casually remarked as he looked up after placing his order for the graphics card and other accessories.

"Hmph, I don't believe it!" Huang Lizhi said, but two suspicious blushes appeared on his face.

She lowered her head, focusing on the rice in her bowl, and stopped talking.

When the rice in the bowl was almost gone, she took advantage of Li Yuan's inattention and quietly got up to go to the kitchen to get another small bowl.

I was just too hungry after practice, not because of what Li Yuan said.

Absolutely not.

As for the leftovers from Huang Lizhi's meal, Li Yuan devoured them all.

In this weather, we can't afford to leave leftovers—even with a refrigerator, these two dishes will lose much of their flavor and texture if left until the next day.

The next morning, Huang Lizhi got up early as usual. Her biological clock is very accurate, although sometimes she needs an alarm clock to help her.

Today, as soon as she stepped out of her bedroom, she heard a commotion coming from the master bedroom: the sound of a door opening, the sound of slippers on the floor, and a muffled yawn.

"Good morning, Lychee." Then, under Huang Lizhi's surprised gaze, Li Yuan rubbed his eyes and walked out of the bedroom.

"Good...good morning." Hwang Yeji blinked, his sleepiness largely dispelled by surprise. "Oppa, why are you up so early?"

"Oh, I have to go to SM in a bit, and I also need to go to the electronics market to buy some things this afternoon," Li Yuan replied casually as he walked towards the restroom.

Recording a demo at SM Entertainment should only take a morning, and he also wants to buy some professional live streaming equipment.

I've read a lot of reviews and recommendations online, and most of them say it's better to go to a physical store to pick it out, especially for things like cameras. The parameters you see online and the actual performance in person are completely different things.

Originally, Li Yuan's style was to keep his face hidden, with the camera always pointed at his idols, and to be a quiet "camera" himself. But now it doesn't matter whether he shows his face or not.

Anyway, that video has already put the face under the mosaic in the spotlight, so there's no point in hiding it anymore.

Moreover, in Park Soo-young's words, showing your face might even attract some fans who appreciate your looks.

"So what are we having for breakfast?" Huang Lizhi mumbled as he brushed his teeth, his voice indistinct, with white foam from the toothpaste lingering at the corners of his mouth.

Li Yuan also went into the bathroom and picked up the newly bought toiletries: "There's porridge cooking in the rice cooker. I'll cut up an egg for you and make you a sandwich later? Or would you like something else?"

He didn't buy many ingredients yesterday, so he can't make some complicated Chinese breakfasts yet.

The main problem is that making steamed buns takes quite a while, and Huang Lizhi gets up relatively early...

Li Yuanke couldn't get up.

"Great!" Huang Lizhi exclaimed excitedly, and toothpaste foam flew out of his mouth and splashed onto Li Yuan.

"Are there any breakfast shops around here?" Li Yuan asked while wiping the foam off his clothes.

Breakfast is usually simple to eat, but quite troublesome to prepare.

If there's a suitable breakfast shop nearby, he'd rather buy it every day to save himself the trouble of making it himself.

"I'm not quite sure," Huang Lizhi shook his head.

She usually cooks her own breakfast and dinner, and eats lunch at the company; she never buys food outside.

This is Gangnam District, and things are ridiculously expensive here. After paying for utilities like water, electricity, and gas, there's hardly anything left of Hwang Ye-ji's monthly trainee stipend. Where would he get the extra money to buy food outside?

"You can add a little bit of white sugar to that sweet potato porridge; it should taste better that way," Li Yuan said. "But don't add too much."

Hwang Li-ji really likes sweet things.

"Sweet potato porridge?" Huang Lizhi curiously rummaged through the sweet potatoes in the bowl with a small spoon, then scooped up a little and put it in his mouth. "Mmm, it's delicious."

"If you like it, have some more," Li Yuan said. "Sweet potatoes are good for the stomach, though it's better than nothing."

As he spoke, he brought out a small dish of kimchi.

"Eat this with it." Kimchi helps balance stomach acid and prevents that heartburn feeling.

"Oppa knows so much!" Hwang Ye-ji looked at him with admiration. "Unlike me, I can't do anything except dance."

Even her proud dance skills couldn't compare to Li Yuan's.

After all, she had seen Li Yuan dance before.

Song Yuqi's statement that it would be a shame if she weren't an idol was not a joke.

"Okay, hurry up and eat." Li Yuan took a bite of the sandwich.

Hmm, it's not burnt.

"I still have to go to the company after I finish eating."

"Hmm!" Huang Lizhi looked away and began to eat.
