T-ara was quite happy recently because the "Pageone" café, which had been closed for a year, was finally reopened thanks to the success of "No. 9".
The nature of this opening was different from before. Previously, it was CCM's property under T-ara's name. Kim Kwang-soo was lucky to get some dividends.
This time, it truly belonged to T-ara. They invested in everything from the storefront to the renovation to the employees. Even Tang Jinyan did not contribute.
The company only helped with the promotion and did not take any shares from them.
The six of them shared the shares and gave Yalin, who was still studying, a share.
The café was no longer in the Gangnam District. It was now less than a hundred meters away from the New Village Group. It became a designated café for the employees and artists of the New Village Group.
The New Village Group was a multi-industry company. It was not just an entertainment company. There were two to three thousand people in the group, including trainees. If the construction team and security team scattered in Jeju Island and Goyang were included, the number of people would be uncountable.
It was even more unclear if Liang Yongli and Incheon were included.
In other words, even if there weren't any guests, the coffee house wouldn't collapse just by relying on the mountain.
Of course, everyone in the group would support the lady boss's property.
Even Baek Chang-soo would come in to sit, order a cup of coffee, and praise it.
Lee Yoon-rim and Song Ji-hyo would come every day. In their spare time from work, they would sit together and chat about the man behind the café.
Speaking of guests, it was impossible to not have any.
Just by looking at the flower baskets that people sent on the opening day, it was obvious that all the famous companies and teams in the entertainment industry were present, including the television stations. The terrifying number of flower baskets almost blocked the entire street, so much so that the smaller companies did not even dare to send any flowers.
Looking at the waves of guests in the café, the six waitresses were smiling so hard that their eyes could not be seen. This was their real property!
They worked extra hard as waitresses.
If there was one regret, it would be that Tang Jinyan did not appear after the ribbon cutting on the opening day.
However, everyone knew what he had been up to recently. Hence, from time to time, they would look at Pu Hyomin meaningfully.
There was also a little bit of jealousy in her eyes, even in Park Suk Yan's eyes.
While everyone was celebrating the grand opening of their cafes, there were some places where blood was flowing like a river … That was because he was furious because of Xiao Min. He went on a killing spree, leaving millions of corpses lying on the ground. Even the mayor's face was trampled into the mud …
Which girl had not fantasized about this kind of romance? She did not expect that Hyomin would be the one to take advantage of this … Even Li Shungui and Quan Youli, who knew a little about the inside story, could not help but call Pu Hyomin in jealousy. They said a few useless words, and they could hardly hide the envy in their words.
Everyone was envious, not to mention Pu Hyomin, who was in the middle of the storm.
Recently, it was obvious that she was a little absent-minded. She couldn't help but think of him whenever she saw something.
Once, she almost slipped when she was carrying a cup of coffee and almost splashed Kim Kwang-soo's face.
Fortunately, Park Ji-yeon was by her side. She quickly held her and avoided a tragedy.
In the end, her friends ordered her not to carry a cup. She was only allowed to hide and cook beans.
Later, her friends found out that Hyomin was distracted because she remembered that Kim Kwang-soo had beaten him up when she saw him.
"Oh no, Hyomin has gone mad." Everyone said so.
Park Soyeon said, "With such romance, I'm willing to go mad too."
"Well, aren't you the first one to go mad?" Everyone reminded her, "Isn't it because of you that President Kim was beaten up by him?"
"Huh?
Is that so … I almost forgot. "
The jealousy in her words was so strong that her friends laughed when they heard it.
To be able to make Soyeon, who was usually the most calm and collected person, jealous, Hyomin's efforts were not in vain.
Hyomin's obsession was obvious on the surface. Even when she was boiling coffee beans, she would sit there from time to time and daydream. Her face was red, and her eyes were like spring water. Anyone who saw her would know that this little girl was thinking of love.
Therefore, it was not surprising that when she was asked to cook Blue Mountain, she turned it into KONA.
The customer who ordered this cup of coffee was called Jiang Minjing. Looking at the thing in front of her that was completely different from what she ordered, Jiang Minjing refused to pay the bill. Fortunately, no one asked her to pay the bill.
According to the waiter Park Soyeon, they had been sisters for so many years. How could Jiang Minjing charge for coffee? Hehehe … She secretly told Li Juli that the reason she dared to serve this cup of coffee to her was because she knew that this fellow would become a family sooner or later. Li Juli nodded in agreement.
However, no one dared to ask Hyomin to make coffee anymore. They could only give her a difficult task: sweeping the floor.
Therefore, the customers saw a charming girl holding a mop, sweeping from one side to another. When she reached the door, a customer happened to come in. She smiled apologetically and said, "Welcome."
Everyone sighed. What a hardworking idol …
The customer stood still in front of Pu Hyomin who was sweeping the floor with her head lowered. "What are you guys doing?
You're even mopping the floor yourself. "
Pu Hyomin's whole body stiffened. She looked up in a daze and saw Tang Jinyan's smiling face.
“OPPA！”
All the customers noticed that the girl's spirit was different in an instant. It was as if her whole body was glowing, and her whole person was brighter.
Park Soyeon came up to her and winked. "Welcome. Dear customer, please take a seat."
Tang Jinyan was busy earlier and left after the ribbon-cutting ceremony. He did not have a good look around. When he heard this, he was curious. "There's a special seat?"
Pu Hyomin immediately said, "The attic upstairs is reserved for you."
Park Soyeon looked around and smiled slightly. "Hyomin, go serve the guests. Don't mop the floor."
Pu Hyomin quickly threw the mop to a corner and threw her apron aside. She pulled Tang Jinyan and ran upstairs as if she was presenting a treasure. "The special seat has the wallpaper I designed. It's very beautiful!"
Tang Jinyan smiled as she pulled him upstairs. They entered a small room. The fragrance of flowers wafted over. Pu Hyomin hugged his arm. "OPPA, take a break. What do you want to drink?
I'll go downstairs and make some. "
Tang Jinyan glanced around. Rather than calling it a special seat, it was clearly a private space for the T-Ara girls. There were sofas, beds, and even refrigerators. Everything was available. The interior design showed traces of Pu Hyomin's style. Simply put, it was very fresh and artistic. The wallpaper was light blue. The light color was not garish. The small flowers on the windowsill swayed gently in the wind, and the wind chimes jingled. It was a bourgeois atmosphere.
Of course, their private space was Tang Jinyan's special seat. There was no difference.
Tang Jinyan grabbed the excited Pu Hyomin and smiled. "What if I want to eat you up?"
Pu Hyomin blushed and mumbled, "There are many people downstairs."
It was indeed a thin partition. The speakers below were still playing soft music. From time to time, they could hear laughter and chatter. It felt very close. It was not a good place to have an affair.
However, Pu Hyomin's words were quite interesting. There were many people … which meant that when there was no one around, it was up to him.
Even if there were many people, if he insisted … there was no rule against it.
Tang Jinyan immediately understood what she meant. He tugged on her hand and Pu Hyomin's entire body fell into his arms.
"OPPA … I've been thinking about you for the past few days …"
